Traditionally, couples need the blessings of their parents before wedding. The dependence on prophets and men of God for prophesies in almost every issue is causing disaffections in families.

SLS is not consistent with his policies. Initially, he was proposing a cashless economy. He has sent a lot of bankers to the unemployment market. The guy is confused. He has a motive which he has not explained to nigerians. 2015 elections is coming. There are plans to move large amounts of cash. That is the only rational explaination for the introduction of the N5,000 notes. I hope he is not planning to inscribe religious symbols on the new naira notes.

Nigeria is one country that politics is seen as a job. A lot of the nation's revenue is diverted for this purpose. Why is Atiku desperate to be the President despite his poor public rating?

vislabraye: Our soldiers can be anything but coward. They're the best fighting msachines in Africa.
American soldiers are not necessarily better than ours, they're more equipped.
I don't support the violence though.

How many times has it been reported that American soldiers beat up civilians? Is a car more valuable that a human life? A lot of our security personnel are barbaric.

It's better late than never. ANPP does not have the support of Boko Haram despite the compensation paid to the family of the deceased militants. The governor is fighting for survival. Hippocrite!

A lot of ignorance is being displayed through religion. The woman simply delivered a stillbirth with congenital anomaly and not a dead horse. The church should send the corpse of the baby for autopsy in a tertiary hospital.

Contributions by doctors in the house are interesting. In addition to the CD4 count, other tests such as the full blood count, renal function test and liver function test are necessary. Good food, personal hygiene and rest is vital. Cure for HIV infection has been achieved after bone marrow transplantations in USA and Germany. Despite the break through, cure may not be available for most patients because the procedure is expensive and require skilled man power which is not readily available. The best cure for HIV infection lies in the prevention of the disease. The disease can be prevented by abstinence, mutual fidelity, avoidance of unprotected sexual intercourse, safe blood transfusion services and use of sterilized equipment. Prevention of mother to child transmission (PMTCT) during pregnancy, labour and puerperium is very important in reducing the incidence of the disease.

The conclusion is that PHCN as constituted is unproductive. The company should be unbundled as soon as possible. Why sell property to pay wages? An unprofitable company needs urgent restructuring.

damola1: What crap.... and the land am sure is also haunted...and it'll be there forever.. no one will touch it....listen to yaself

Like the man said, it should have been auctioned off, hotels, property management are good businesses....and money doesn't really know any source... because IBB looks clean in the face doesn't mean his money is cleaner than any of these guys... they are all crooks.... Don't get it twisted!.. so yes, they shouldn't have wasted the resources..

On another note, is the rule of law really been followed.. I mean.. on what basis is a kidnapper identified... what if this is a personal vendetta by a police inspector against a personal friend or even by Obi himself... me thinks the due process is essential and needs to be followed, if anything should be done, it should be to improve the process of police arresting, court judging, and sentence served!.. not for the state to automatically become a police, lawyer, jury, judge...my 2kobo

What rule of law do you want? With the amount of weapons and ammunition discovered in that house, what else do you need to prove that the man is not only a kidnapper but an armed robber and probably a terrorist.

Without access to government funds, the northern elites are handicapped. Boko Haram has advanced from a tool used for the killing of the igbos & christains to a weapon of destruction of the North. Foolish, myopic and hopeless cowards. They can choose to remain silent if they wish. After all, they contributed greatly to the creation of the barbarians who are now a curse to their people and Nigeria.
If the North is completely destroyed, they will run with their loot abroad for political assylum.

Now that she is born again, she must undergo mammoplasty to avoid sexual molestation.

Congratulations Babe! You've set another record. First nigerian athlete to deliver triplets. Cheers!

Tlake: This is wat poor infrastructural dev will cause,wat kind of civil engnr will construct a road without proper survey, dats wat we gt with poor designs and constructions frm our useless contractors evan julius berger road does nt last up 2 10yrs

That particular portion of the road usually collapse every rainy season. The place needs a small bridge intead of a culvert. Because of poor structural design and corruption that place has not been properly repaired. Now that the place has collapsed again, another dubious contractor will be mobilized to site to continue the vicious cycle.

All over the world, practices are changing. Nigerians are resistant to current practices. Mechanized animal husbandry and development of cattle ranges is the solution to the problem.

Israelmossaic: Ignorance here means absence of sound knowledge. The question is, after the coup, did Buhari go to school to update himself? Obviously no! That means the man is still wallowing in ignorance and thus not qualify to handle any sensitive position.

You comment is correct. Garbage in, garbage out.

Good moves Mr. President. Our lost glory in sports should be restored.

I'm disappointed in the first lady's medical team. Perhaps they have lost touch with clinical practice. Some of them may be contractors. Appendicitis is a clinical diagnosos. The appendix ruptured because of negligence and misdiagnosis by her physicians. Continuous medical education is compulsory for all medical doctors.

Security should be beefed around corpers lodges in the country. We don't want a recurrence of the massacre of the post election crisis of 2011.

Enough of negotiations with barbarians. GEJ should employ the OBJ tactics. The Maidugari Terrorist camp should be levelled.

Lawyers have a vital role to play in the development of our society. However, most of them are interested in making money than in pursuing the truth. As a result of this, their activities encourages corruption, crime and election rigging.

kudos to the paraolympic athletes. The NSC should commit more resources for the training of these athletes. They have made the country proud.

Why did the man need a bullet proof charm. Is he a law enforcement officer, a criminal, a long distance driver or a politician? Wonders shall never end.

naijaking1: My family had to put an evening shift head nurse on pay-roll of 15,000 naira a month so that my dad got his medications and other regular nursing attention a few years back
Nursing and medicine are just like other professions in Nigeria, there is nothing like customer service. From Bankers, to engineers, to even priests.

There is no permanent evening Head Nurse in LUTH or any government hospital. Perhaps you gave the money to the Unit Matron who is usually on permanent morning duty. There are good and bad officers. Perhaps you encountered the bad one. I think there is a lot of pressure on clinical staff because of shortage of manpower. The hospital management is usually reluctant to address the issue because of financial benefits.

Recently, we are reading a lot of cock and bull stories in the the newspapers. Most of our journalists are lazy. They don't investigate stories before reporting. All normal matured babies are born with a grasp reflex which enable them to grab an object put in their palms.

spirit o: in eleyele ibadan, power supply as increased from 4hrs /day to 15hrs, but d tarrif is killin. I pay as much as 6000/montly unlike be4 dt i pay 1000. The 500 montly fixed charge, d per purchase VAT[tax] nd d increased electricity tarrif is makin me beg dem 2 take d light in d afternoon so as 2 use it only @ nite. Our govt are wicked dy give u one and take 10 from u.

How much were you spending on purchase of fuel and servicing of your generator when power supply from PHCN was erratic?

I'm watching a live match (Arsenal V Liverpool) in my residence at Magami Ward, Jalingo with public power supply. There is usually light about 12-18 hours per day and occassionally there is steady light for about 24-72 hours. There is usually steady power supply at Technobat Quarters, Mile 6 and Round Block in Jalingo.

KDULAR:
I AM INFORMING YOU THAT THERE EVEN IN THE DDA ( DANGEROUS DRUG ACT IN NIGERIA ) THIS PARTICULAR DRUG DOES NOT REQUIRE A MEDICAL DOCTORS PRESCRIPTION BEFORE YOU CAN DISPENSE. THE TRUTH IS WE GENERALISE ALL DRUGS DUE TO WHAT WE HEAR FROM PEOPLE BUT I AM TELLING YOU WITH ALL CONFIDENCE THAT THE GUY DID NOT ERR IN ANYWAY , HOWEVER, BEING AN INTERN, HE' SUPPOSSED TO BE UNDER SOMEONE ELSE' SUPERVISION. AND THAT IS A MINOR ISSUE PROFESSIONALLY AND THE PUNISHMENT IS NOT REALLY ON HIM . BUT IN THIS CASE A CASE WILL BE EASILY WON BY THE PHARMACIST AND THE PHARMACY . JUST WATCH. THE POLICE WILL BE DISGRACED IN THIS . THEY REALLY FEAST ON PEOPLES FEAR AND IGNORANCE.WHICH A LOT OF US ARE PERPETRATING EVEN ON THIS TOPIC. I NEED SOMEONE TO STATE ME AN AUTHORITY THAT'LL PROVE ME WRONG. CHIKENA

The difference between a clinician and a pharmacist is clear. What is the motivation in dispensing a sedative to a patient you cannot monitor. Think my brother.

A lot of electricity workers must be sacked for us to have steady power supply. PHCN must be unbundled.

OBJ tried his best but had bad economic policies. Even the USA has not cleared her debt with the World Bank and IMF. Why did OBJ concentrate on debt payment instead of using funds to develop the power sector and building refineries? A lot of funds were lost in the third term project. Nigeria has persistent problems resulting from bad leadership and mismanagement of the nation's resources.

KDULAR: Gentlemen reAD AND BE INFORMED THAT UNDER THE LAW GUIDING PRESCRIPTIONS OF DRUGS. THE SAID DRUG IN QUESTION DOES NOT REQUIRE A PRESCRIPTION FROM A DOCTOR. THEREFORE, THE GUY HAS NOT DONE ANYTHING WRONG MY SOURCE THE DDA ( SCHEDULE 4 DRUGS UNDER THE DDA) . ANY PHARMACIST OR KNOWLEDGEABLE MEDICAL DOCTOR/ DENTIST OR PSYCHOLOGIST CAN CONFIRM OR DISPEL MY STATEMENT. I POSTED THIS EARLIER AND NOBODY IS YET TO TELL ME I'M WRONG. SO DON'T JUST PASS JUDGEMENT BASED ON EMOTIONS PEOPLE

In Nigeria controlled drugs are dispensed and administered only with a written prescription of a physician or any other officer authorized to prescribe such drug. The pharmacist erred by dispensing the controlled drug without a written prescription.
