crocodile dey nigeria?

Yes. In most states, including Lagos.

Buckubuck:
Dats not official information that should come from ONSA to Army command. That never happened. The soldiers could have thought they were impersonating based on the instructions they got from their captain to apprehend them. If Army command had been informed by ONSA, no counter order will come up.

You mean the ONSA ought to inform the Army any time policemen go out to arrest a suspect?

bashir1451:
So the police should not investigate on this shameful hiatus, but wait for a tea sipping presidential panel to do their job for them abi? This is not Transmission IGP ooo.

Don't mind these yeye journalists. The police are the default crime investigation body in Nigeria. They investigate any crime anywhere in the country, tea panel or not, much more the killing of their own!

Since Saturday? Failed state, indeed.

Celebsnews:
Lol. He had no choice though. He can't run with such an amount.

Btw, so after commenting on a Muslim thread, where I was forced to swear that prophet Muhammad is what ever, what ever... is now on my profile? Like for real? So, if someone checks my profile that's what he would think I feel? Lol... This nairaland moderators ain't serious. I believe nothing. What ever happens on nairaland, remains in nairaland. Don't force any belief on us.

These Muslim guys comment on Christian posts freely.

It's a nonsense policy. I've tried to tell Seun and his mods that if non-Moslems aren't allowed to comment on Moslem threads, fine, but don't put such threads on the homepage for those who are barred from commenting on them to read. But I guess Nairaland doesn't care about high standards.

Flier:
You just need education,some diarrhea can kill you within 6 hours and that is why you have to take antibiotics to be sure you are not in serious trouble

Until they stop working or, in combination with other antibiotics, kill your gut microbiome, and you end up requiring a stool transplant or end up on your way to colon cancer! You don't have a clue, do you? Post more education, abeg. Nothing do you.

Flier:
Nonsense! Just don’t stop it anytime you have diarrhea
Infact you must try tetracycline or flagyl immediately you have diarrhea to confirm if it’s actually diarrhea or it’s a very serious problem so you can head straight to the hospital immediately

TRY antibiotics immediately to confirm if you have diarrhoea! SMH.

Angelfrost:
Ironically, it's most of your fellow doctors that compound the issue of antibiotics resistance... Nigeria is one of the few countries where "trained" medical doctors prescribe antibiotics for flu and common cold symptoms especially in pediatric cases. Same thing for self-limiting oto-infections...

The case of metronidazole use in non-complicated diarrhea is an age long abuse that will be difficult to curb, mostly due to the constipation-inducing side-effect of the drug (which most mistake as the main therapeutic effect).

Thank you.

Don't know of Regards but flygyl na life saver.

Been using it and it's been working for me

All diz Twitter Dr sef one day dem go wake up nd tell us Paracetamol dey cure HIV nd Hapetis B...

You people don't understand the problem - no, crisis - of the antibiotics resistance that is emerging; that's why you're attacking him. I doubt you even know what antibiotics are much less their pharmacology. The doc is not saying antibotics don't work. He's saying they work too much. He's saying that using antibiotics for the common diarrhoea is wrong because (1) It's like using an AK-47 to kill a cockroach (2) You're contributing to the problem of antibiotic resistance IN THE LONG TERM. There are simpler meds you can use that will work just as well - if you feel you must take meds.

The day you get bitten by a nasty bug or catch an infection and all the antibiotics in the market refuse to work on your system, you will understand.

Ray97:
dont forget the police men wer in mufti.

Yes. But with IDs on their person.

Ray97:
I blame both the soldiers and police officers involved everybody was doing show of force. Imagine if the police didnt return fire but surrenderd instead and then identify themselves later. What would have happened.. Let justice prevail abeg.




MODIFIED: some people quoting me are misunderstanding my position on this matter. Am not in anyway backing the army. Nobody really understood what happened but in cases like one have to look at the matter clearly. Yes the army killed the officers, yes the kidnapper suspect is at large now. But is this a case of corrupt or bad officers or just a misunderstanding. I mean if there was a sinister move on the side of the army, why are there survivals. Why didnt the soldiers kill all the cops then. What if the soldiers saw the guns and mistook the undercover officers for bad guys, panicked and then opened fire. What if there was a confrontation between the two security outfits and then it resulted into fracas.

And what if the policemen thought the soldiers were bandits dressed like soldiers since only bandits would normally confront policemen transporting a crime boss?

Defence HQ? Those guys can lie for Africa. They will just write a report and tell us what they like. Better ask some other agency to investigate it.

Oh, it's the army that lies all the time. I don't trust DHQ though. Let's hope they do a good job.

babeosisi:
Where are all the rich men that stole our wealth

Sorry, they stole it for their own kids. So unless he wants to be adopted...

Martinez39:
Student loan is really crippling many in young folks in America. College is now a business. Despite all the loans, nothing meaningful is taught instead colleges are indoctrination camps and cults for leftist properganda and fascism.

It's a sad situation that needs to be addressed - but then Americans pride themselves on their cut-throat capitalism. It's working for them, I guess, since it has made them the most innovative and successful people in human history. But until they give their capitalism a human face, it's a choice. Many people are doing great things without a college degree.

Mustiboy:
One Pastor Adeboye somewhere must have deceived him.

Now that he's dead, all the memories he lived by have gone. He now lives in a world of his own, a world of oblivion. He cannot know how people will take the news of his death, what people will say say about him, or how people will see his last deed on earth, which surely must be regretting his decision to live by faith instead of drugs to save his life. He is a loser.

May his soul, if anything like that, escape the fiery punishment of Allah and Yahweh in the afterworld.

I thought you can only escape one.

temmypotter:
These guys above me though

In a sane country, the brilliant chap would have gotten all the neccesary assistance to ply his brilliance at the very top flight.

And for the silly comments above, the lot of you are probably frustrated empty headed dudes struggling to graduate with a pass even, what nonsense!

You expect the government to sponsor him? - name the sane country please. In a well-run country, going abroad wouldn't be the priority and he would take a student loan to pay the remaining 50% to attend an elite university.

nephemmy:
those ain't kidnappers abeg..if u meet em..they're heavily loaded with aks...guns blazing..stop deceiving people here abeg..

There are different categories. I hear people are being kidnapped and ransomed for N20,000 in Nigeria these days.

Kkings11:
1KG = 1000grammes.

so 1gram = 2000 / 1000

1gram = #2


1.8Kg = 1800g

1gram = 3500 / 1800

1 gram = 1.94 to 2decimal places

therefore the 1kg bag is more expensive by

#2 - 1.94 = 0.6per gram

OR 0.6 x 1000 = #60 per kilo

Thank you. I guess you mean the 1kg bag is more expensive by N60 per kilo.

A 1kg bag of grain cost N2000. A 1.8kg bag of the same grain cost N3,500. Which is more expensive and by how much?

Less than 10 countries in the world manufacture cars from scratch to finish. The rest assemble. There are many things to make beside cars. For example, there are countries that don't manufacture cars from scratch but manufacture aeroplanes. Countries specialise in what they can make cost-effectively. That is why Americans import phones and telecom equipments from China and Korea. And that's why they taught you in your secondary school economics that international trade is based on COMPARATIVE COST ADVANTAGE.

Kneephy:
When I grow up, I want to be like Ned Nwoko.....




Quote me and die at ur own peril

How can somebody die at his own peril? I doubt a senseless curse can harm anyone - except maybe the curser.

GrabHisBalls:
I don't pity some of you when you end up with bad wives. This your wife is everything bad. No character, no home training, no respect for elders, and you want to say you didn't notice any of these while dating even if she's the best pretender in town.

Marriage is for better, for worse. Carry your cross.

I taya! Why don't people think long term when they're marrying these characters?

GOFRONT:


Na wa for the owners of this Shoprite.....They don't even want to give chance to those struggling women Selling Cooked corn along Mabushi Express..

Das why ees expensive naa. So that people can still buy from Iya. How many people will go buy sweetcorn of N500?

gaby:
This man wey resemble down syndrome pikin na heavy agbaya o lol

Na so my grandpa dey lap us that year...

It is wrong to use people with a disability for your jokes. Mend your ways.

Collyweed:
We are just pretending to be a democracy and obviously paying lip service to the concept of the rule of law.

The Nigerian Army is the most retrogressive organization in this country. They have not changed since their founding some 150 years ago. This was when dastardly British bandits started using these thugs to seize, loot and pillage the land and resources of the indigenous peoples of this benighted colonial prison camp.

Well put.

That's a whole Nigerian Army o. When Amnesty talk now they will say they have started again.

Simplyleo:
To me, this is a classical case of cure worse than the ailment. The little girl being a child may be thrilled by this "palliative", but in actual sense, it is no where close to the solution of her daily energy-sapping distant trekking.

The energy expended in riding that bicycle is almost double the energy required to trek.

However, may God reward her benefactor for making such attempt, and thanks to social media for bringing up her plight to the public. We pray she eventually get the appropriate assistance.

Also, such a long walk on the lonely path is not safe for a girl of her age, human ritualists are on the lookout.

I'm not sure what you're on about. Riding a bicycle to school is far better than trekking.

pocohantas:
Why are people making the dumping ground statement?

It is not like Nigerians can afford brand new cars. Is this not the country where people buy 2003 cars and call it "brand new"?

There will always be market (demand) for fairly used things. If they are clean title cars, we are good to go. This is me addressing the "dumping ground" talk.

I think it's the state of the cars people are concerned about. In the interest of the environment, you'd expect our government to put checks in place to ensure only cars in good conditions are brought in, but that's not what we'll get.

NwaAmaikpe:




Baba is just looking for avenues to rake in compensation money.
Why not probe the Nigerian Police who used live ammunition on unarmed protesters leading to your son's death?

Egbon Ayo dont be greedy. Just take the 1million Naira NYSC has offered you and allow your son to rest in peace.

If a doctor was meant to be on duty and was not around or within a minute or so distance on being reached by phone, that is unacceptable. It is wrong of you to think this is about compensation money. But again Nigerians "just take" things like that and let the dead be and the system suffers. Do you have sense at all?

Abudu2000:
I will even add 2. What will I gain by stopping any man's success? I'm there to collect my salary not to impair ppls journey.thanks

People like you have it all wrong. How does awarding someone his true score amount to stopping his success?

Brilliant analysis, op.

chigoziri2403:
Akon now spends more time in Nigeria than he spent in jail

You want to put the blame on him?

amaben2020:
So I should have clapped for him for trying to insult the Igbo race? We don't behave like that in the East. Igbos have been marginalized for a long time for being quiet and docile, never again, any region that wants peace would have peace, if the Hausa Fulani or whoever wants war, well burn Nigeria to the ground and it would cease to exist as an entity. Never again!

Yawn.
