■ She is not saying it is wrong. What she is saying is that there can be more to that. Can everybody become a Certified Nursing Assistant? This thing is simple.

There can be more than that in what sense? The country hires those who are trained as CNAs from other countries when it is unable to fill its need for CNAs from within, right? Countries equally invite other professionals for various positions when they find it has needs that cannot be filled locally. So, your question — can everybody become a Certified Nursing Assistant?— does not compute at all.

Esinwaju:
She is sending a message to the policy makers, telling them that they can do better. Immigrants should be allowed to maximise their potentials without prejudice.

Again, by referring to the immigrant choice of work as bottom wiping? Referring to them as bottom wipers— recall that these people were not forced to accept these positions, to begin with— is a form of prejudice for Pete's sake!

Mom007:
■ Like I said, accept it, move on with life.

Accept that you are a racist who goes around ranting about the racism of others? Of course, I accept it! 😂😂😂😂😂

Esinwaju:
Because she wants to be as clear as possible. She is sending a message to people who play the ostrich with these kind of issues. She had to be specific and that she did.

She is sending a message to those who play the ostrich by denigrating the people who accept to do those jobs... what the heck?

Esinwaju:
How did she downgrade you? Someone is telling the powers that be that immigrants deserve better and you are saying what again?

Immigrants deserve better what? If immigrants are invited to come to occupy CNA— Certified Nursing Assistant— positions and they honor the invite, what is wrong with that? Why refer to them as bottom wipers?

Mom007:
■ So I should not call a kettle black because the pot is blackker? I call it as I see it bro and so should you. The white man is racist. The black man probably is too, it is what it is. Face front and Move on with life.

Nigeria is a country overrun by racists; tribalism is racism. So it sort of makes no sense arguing against the racism of others when you are yourself a racist.

Esinwaju:
This thread is a mess. It's almost as if nobody played the video and if they did I doubt if they comprehended what was said. She is not mocking anybody. She is only highlighting the limitations of being an immigrant in a system that can offer much more than just certain types of jobs. Many immigrants are highly skilled in many areas so it should be a case of round pegs in round holes for them. How this flew over so many heads is what I actually shocked about.

I watched the video. Why didn't she use the term "immigrants" rather than refer to the job title itself rather than refer to them as bottom wipers?

Kdon2:
■ She didn't pull anyone down. Stop lying

Was it not humans she referred to there?

discusant:
■ She said she wants this country to be great for her children ..... not just for who will wipe our buttocks in the future. How did that amount to mocking migrant workers?

Why describe them in such a manner? Are they not an essential part of the system she met and the future she yearns for her children? Why denigrate them?

12345baba:
U guys are quoting her out of context

I get what you are trying to say but her use of the idea is still wrong abeg!

casualobserver:
■ it is meant to be derogatory because it is derogatory to leave your country to clean people's ass or urine. it is derogatory. is cleaning another man's ass a good thing?

It is bad for you to clean arse in your own country— these people don't even get paid minimum wage nor do they work in decent environments. And it is equally wrong to leave your country to go clean arse and urine where you will get better pay and better living conditions? If that makes sense to you, please continue.

casualobserver:
■ who cares? at the end of the day the are bottom wipers

That there reveals you are quite aware it is a derogatory term then. Anyways, continue!

swagifted:
dem de wipe bum bum abi dem no de wipe bum bum ?

Yes, some of them helped wipe your Asiwaju and Buhari's arse as well when they were in the UK and unable to do it for themselves. There are equally some underpaid workers in Nigerian hospitals who help wipe the butts of your relatives when they are sick and unable to do it themselves... only in the Nigerian case, you have to be able to afford them to begin with. But the point is that is just one of the many things they help sick low motility patients with.

casualobserver:
■ But excuse me are they not bottom wipers? It is what it is deal with it. If you don’t want to be called a bottom wiper fix your country.

They do so much more than that.

Certified Nursing Assistants are responsible for many patient care tasks to ensure that each patient receives the comprehensive and personalized care they need. They often have the following responsibilities:

↪Grooming and bathing patients with low mobility
↪Preparing each patient’s room with necessary items such as blankets, pillows, medical equipment and toiletries
↪Helping patients eat and take medications
↪Making sure patients have regular meals and proper medication dosages
↪Monitoring vitals and behavior and reporting them to the nursing and medical staff
↪Transferring patients with low mobility from wheelchair to bed and vice versa
↪Turning or adjusting patients in bed to prevent bedsores

So the term "bottom wipers" is a form of denigration that should be frowned upon by any reasonable being.

danvon:
■ Better pay at what cost? Always being insulted and told to leave your country, sure they might not mind -
■ but most times these people migrate with their children, their children will usually grow up without a sense of identity and in some cases a permanent sense of shame, they won't fit in anywhere, in any race, tribe or class.
■ The 'better pay' is not worth it.

So? The insults doled out to Nigerians in their own country of Nigeria, is that somehow a lot better or something?

2. That bullsheet argument is only traded by those of you who are too tinybrained to reason beyond that. I grew up here in the States, and so did my siblings. We have no identity issues and yes, we have integrated and are not worried about this nonsense identity nonsense you speak of. It only exists in the minds of those who have been lied to that such things exist and matter.

You can only have a permanent sense of shame if you are suffering from major depression that you never get treatment for.

3. Nonsense! Dem no owe you anything so back off of their business and mind yours. If we check now, you wey you dey talk no dey Nigeria at all. 🙄

■ even some Brits do the job too. And there are a lot of job aid that makes it easier for them bottom wipers to carry out the task with less stress.
■ Some people do that shit in Nigeria with horrible working conditions and pay. So 12 quid not bad for ass wipers if you ask me.

Exactly! These people are an essential backbone to any effective healthcare system too.

2. Exactly!

dkidd:
■ You are full of shiit quoting nonsense not in the bible. AN OBVIOUS SATANIST! Don't bother quoting me cos I have now seen u for who u truly are

Attacking my person in anyway does not make the facts disappear.

By the way, in the context of the Kingdom of God — Jesus Christ— a Satanist or AntiChrist is one who completely disregards that which is declared by Jesus Christ to declare that which is removed from Him. In this case, marriage is not a blessing in the Kingdom of God. However, you would rather insist, against Jesus Christ that it is. What does that tell you of who the AntiChrist is in this case?

Quelme:
This one off me. Bottom wipers.
The bottom wipers are not just Nigerians, Filipinos, Asians and other Africans are into bottom wiping.
All way na way, 12 quid per hour not bad for a bottom wiper if you ask me and some bottom wiping comes with sponsorship.

Exactly! Better pay and better living conditions for these workers compared to where many of them are coming from. I should also add that there are lots of Americans who work CNA jobs and are satisfied doing so too.

danvon:
■ They are not spending millions to get those jobs and they will not be deported if they quit

There are actually only a handful of them since Nigeria's health system remains dilapidated and even those who do this kind of work are not even paid minimum wage in Nigeria. Worse, with the economy as it is, there is barely any future for them as it is. So, again, why do you fault those of them who choose to run away to where they can work the same job and get better pay and treatment?

[quote author= post=132253468]■ A 45-Year-Old Man, Ayobami Oshoko, has died by suicide at his home in the Mango, Oke-Ata area of Abeokuta, the capital of Ogun State.
PUNCH Metro learnt that the incident took place around 6:00 am on September 30.
The Spokesperson for the Ogun State Police Command, Omolola Odutola, confirmed the incident to PUNCH Metro on Tuesday and stated that the victim was believed to have ingested insecticide to end his life due to the hardship he was allegedly facing.
Our correspondent learnt that the deceased’s sister, identified as Funmilayo, reported the incident to the Lafenwa Police Division after discovering her brother’s lifeless body in his room, with a bottle of insecticide found beside him.
She said, “A friend of the deceased visited his home and asked to see him. Upon entering the room, he discovered the victim’s body on the floor and raised the alarm after finding that the victim had ingested a mixture of insecticide and herbal concoction.
“He left a note written in Yoruba language, explaining the reasons behind his decision. In the note, he expressed frustration with his life and stated that he felt he had no choice but to end it. A discreet investigation is currently underway.”[/quote]Why did he choose to die in a hiding place abeg?

danvon:
Imagine a man will spend millions, abandon his family, his country, his culture, his dignity just to go abroad and be wiping asses of old white racist men and women - they deserve to be insulted.

So, based on this, we are to conclude that the many Nigerians in Nigeria who equally work as Nurse Assistants— wiping the asses of sick Nigerians is part of their job— in Nigerian hospitals were also rich people who abandoned their families, etc?

IBB007:
lol…this budget is a real mess…na ogun go kill these NASS members

Ogun no go do anything; Na so Ogun, Sango, Obatala, Orunmila, Ifa, etc., dey sit dey watch all of this wondering why the people allow it to continue.

GboyegaD:
With such level of padding for an institution, imagine the passing that goes on in other ministries. They know the people they lead are docile and now that we know, our best is to make a caricature of the situation.

I doubt the padding is meant for the institution. Seems more like the institution is being used to siphon money from the Nigerian treasury in this case by those who padded the budget.

AcuraZDX:
Omoh ! Is EFCC & ICPC not aware of this mess of the Budget? What is the relevance of our anti corruption fighting institutions? Are the politicians now bigger than our institutions set up to checkmate & fight corruption?
Seems corruption is normalized now in d country.

Does ICPC work at all?

■ A lot of people were fed with 3D images of other countries on the internet, hoping to meet some form of crystal-like buildings or infrastructures that look like diamond... Hahahaha
There are only 4 Beautiful countries on planet earth you can manage their realities on ground, despite their huge landmass:
Russia, china, Australia and the united States.
■ The rest are just an "organized Lagos, Nigeria"
*Places that will leave you disappointed on your first visit; Rome, Paris, suburbs of Canada, London, Brazil etc
*Places that will surprise you on your first visit;
Japan, Malaysia, Singapore etc I dare any Traveller to challenge me

I don't even understand the claim you are attempting you make here. Is it that you think a city consists of crystal-like buildings or infrastructure that looks like a diamond? Wouldn't one need to be seriously high to believe that to be the case?

2. Organized Lagos? Defined Organized abeg! How do Paris, Canada, and London, compare to Lagos for Pete's sake?

dkidd:
■ You Satanist and false prophetess! Genesis 3: 16 He cursed the woman with pain in child birth in the garden of Eden not the union or institution of marriage. What sort of human are u? How can u say God cursed marriage? The same God that commanded in Genesis 1:28 that we should populate the earth with our kind? And u talk so much about Jesus yet u know little or nothing. If believers are cursed then what is the purpose of Jesus coming to live, suffer and die?
■ You are indirectly saying Jesus and the purpose of his death and resurrection is pointless. You are just a very knowledgeable agent of hell and u know how to twist the word to suit ur agenda of darkness. I know u will counter me with another twisted verse soon

See reasoning for Pete's sake!

What you are invariably trying to argue is that because God blessed man in Genesis 1 and Genesis 2, the same God could not have cursed man in Genesis 3. You sure say you dey alright so? Clearly, the genesis of your own problem isn't my person but your obvious inability to critically reason the information presented to you.

2. Nonsense! The purpose of Jesus Christ has absolutely nothing to do with you and what you think. But as I said before, you Christians don't like Jesus Christ at all that is why you never pay attention to any of what He in fact said. Rather, you fish around for texts to convoluted in order that you may continue living according to your own ideas.

For instance, Jesus Christ said in His Kingdom of God, those who are blessed are those who live as Eunuchs. In the end, He proclaimed that women who had children where to weep for themselves and their children— the Kingdom had nothing to offer them and their children. He proclaimed that rather, God's blessing lay with those who were barren and women who lived as Eunuchs too. But this is something you Christians abhor and fight against with every drop of blood in your veins, among other things of course.

■ Nigerian-born British politician Kemi Badenoch mocks migrant workers, describe them as “bottom wipers” in now viral video.
Badenoch was born in Wimbledon, London. Her parents are of Nigerian origin. Her childhood was spent in part in Lagos and the United States. She returned to the United Kingdom at the age of 16.

That is a very immature and careless statement to make. These workers are an essential backbone of any healthcare system. Without them what you have is nothing better than what you have there in Nigeria that does not work at all for anyone.

Do you rear pigeons?

Nope but those who seek it as food may want to begin doing so with the little they have at this point. it is cheaper both to rare and to buy than chicken.

Westerhoffe:
■ And I asked, where was Britain or your UN when Saul, David, Solomon, were reigning as kings in Israel, before the kingdom was divided between Rehoboam and Jeroboam, to the continuous split among the kings, Hezekiah, Jehoshaphat, Asa, Ahab, Joash, etc where one king rules over ten tribes and the other over two?
Where were Britain and the UN when the LORD was born in Bethlehem?
Or do you want to tell me Israel came into existence in 1948?

Again, the excerpt tells you that it was Britain or the UN early last century. I am unsure why you are trying to feign blindness to that fact.

..A circular dated September 8, 2024, titled, ‘Nigeria’s Total Public Debt Stock As At June 30, 2023’ which was released by the DMO confirmed that the securitized ways and means from the CBN has been added to the public debt stock.
DMO said, “The major addition to the Public Debt Stock was the inclusion of the N22.712tn securitized FGN’s Ways and Means Advances. The securitization of the FGN Ways and Means Advances after receipt of requisite approvals, has enabled its inclusion in the Total Public Debt Stock.
“This development, which was welcomed by development partners amongst others, has improved debt transparency and led to the reduction in Debt Service costs associated with the Ways and Means Advances.
“Other additions to the Debt Stock were New Borrowings by the FGN and the subnationals from local and external sources.”

Rather than pay off the debt, he decided to have it marked as debt for Nigerians(and future generations) to pay off so he can go on to say he has paid it off?

Love800:
Why this question. Are you saying there is no money in kaduna?

Your question makes no sense.
