Sijo01: The little I know about car doors. There's a central lock only the driver can operate. Someone just mentioned child locks. If the child door locks are on, there is no way the door would open from inside, even if you use the central lock. You would have to open it physically from outside. But wait first, why on earth did he drive her to his house, instead of her original destination? Bluffly: Please explain. But listen, child locks are manually set, so no amount of key remote can open it, except you wind down the glass and open from inside. So, to escape, you either be lucky that it is a manual winder or you ignite the car and wind down(that is if winding down other windows are not secured by the driver.) She can as well climbed to the front seat and come out. So please explain your ranting. Remember that you can only disable the child lock when the door is opened Let us hope he understands your lucid explanation!  If the child lock was activated before she got in, it means the driver probably had ulterior motives. He wanted to be the one to open the door for the passenger. |

PStacks: Hey.. good morning.
I perfectly understand from your stand point of view but the point is this.
people make it seem as if a fulani man is President and so fulani herdsmen are on a killing spree because their brother is president.
thats not the case.
lets literarily say Nigeria is shrinking from the North as a result of desertification and from the south as a result of ocean surge.
so we have a situation where there is migration to the middle belt from both North and South.
this scenerio gives rise to agitations, strife and competition for available resources.
thank goodness you mentioned Dubai being reclaimed from the desert.
we have the "great green walls" projects. We have ecological funds.
what have been made of them.
you see! The seeds sown today are harvested tomorow and hence any Buhari initiative can never and would never be felt today except in time to come.
all the security challenges this Buharis govt is facing are seeds sown by previous obasanjo and jonathan governments if it doesnt even predates them.
Buhari can not start reclaiming deserts now and even if he started today it would take years b4 we feel the impact and that is why to take a look at the cause of fulani herdsmen being on rampage, it must be wholistic.
if previous government had utilised properly Ecological funds perherbs today we wont have a case of this forced migration.
fulani herdsmen are not migrating at will but are being forced to migrate due to circumstances beyond their control.
this is not a case of Tresspass or dispossession. No it is not ..
it is either this fulanis perish with their cattles remaining in the desert or migrate to look for alternatives.
their migration is causing a whole lot of trouble and we know it but 2 wrongs dont make a right in any part of the world.
Obasanjo is busy writting useless letter up and down as if he was a saint and hasnt contributed in one way or the other to Nigeria's problems.
if the PDP were a planing govt that had foresight, reclaiming of the desert should have been a piority project in their 16 useless and wasteful years. Were you sipping the wine of absurdity when you wrote this? It is just a simple question. I am trying to hang on to my temper and not give in to the temptation to give you a piece of my mind. You claim the Fulani herdsmen are not 'trespassing' in their migration to the middle-belt and the south. So what do you call the act of entering and occupying someone else's land or property, without permission? Or the act of encroaching upon the territories of others, without their consent? Why must they even migrate towards the middle belt?  Aren't there some other states in the far North that can accomodate them? Gongola river, Hadejia-Ja'mare River etc, cut across Bauchi. There are vast plains there. Let your Fulani herdsmen take their cows there. I pray they misbehave, in just the same way they have been doing, while invading the lands of other people with impunity, so that the Kanuri, Sayawa, or Zulawa can kick their butts, without compunction!As for your pathetic way of blaming the past administration for everything, it is stale, nauseating and moronic. PDP was bad and they did not build a green wall in the North to push back the desertification at the edge of the Fulani's northern camps. We have heard. PDP was bad, but APC is worse! There is no choice among rotten apples - either PDP or APC.  APC had ample time and enough years to come up with a blueprint to improve every sector of this nation, before they even got into power, but till date what have they done to combat the effects of desertification? If they had started something tangible to combat the problem 2 years ago when they got into power, wouldn't there have been some signs of recovery, by now?  If in 2 years they have nothing to show for it, what makes you think they will perform any magic with respect to turning the arid parts of the North into an oasis, within the next few years? The journey of a thousand miles starts with one step. What have all the current APC governors been doing with ecological funds in the last 2 years, when it comes to building 'green walls'?  Please save your latest batch of excuses & puerile defence for those clueless enough to believe them. The Middle Belt does not want to play host to the Fulani killer herdsmen. Na by force? Their people are saying "NO" to cattle colonies, and migration of the herdsmen into their territory. Why? They do not want to be visited with sorrow, tears and blood! Enough is enough!!  The Middle Belt is coping with challenges of shrinking arable lands, lower crop yields per square metre, overflooding, leaching, overcrowding etc. They do not need the Fulani herdsmen to add to their challenges! Let them keep away! Haba!!  |

[/b][b]MARKETfund: A harrowing experience told in a beautiful write up.
Thank God for sparing your life bro.
Sometimes two years ago out of curiosity I took a course on diseases and epidemics in coursera.com (actually got a certificate from Pittsburgh university at the conclusion of the program).
The gist is that I noticed a carefully lead down procedures for arresting infectious diseases in the hospital before it becomes an epidemic or even when there is pandemic. There are several bodies set up in the United States starting from what you may call local government Areas, to states, to federal level. All linked in chains of communication, all responsive team.
It is really disappointing reading this knowing that we have at least a semblance of those bodies in this country but either without knowing their job functions or lacking the work tools. It is that bad.
PS: The Dr. might consider writing as past time Gbam!! You just hit da nail on da head!  In the health sector in general within Nigeria, I doubt if there is a carefully laid down set of procedures, for arresting infectious diseases and epidemics. If such procedures do exist, they must have been filed away somewhere gathering dust, or locked up in a cabinet by some clueless idjiot who has thrown away the key. Such procedures need to be cascaded down the line within the health system, and repeated regularly like fire drills, so that everyone knows what to do if such situations arise. The right tools and equipment also need to be made available at every step of the way, to carry out the functions that need to be done! That is why I am saying this issue must NOT be swept under the carpet.  It needs to go viral. It needs to be shared, retweeted, and repeated until it gets to those in authority, either at the executive level or to those in the green and red chamber. The Minister of Health must be summoned to answer some really tough questions, on why patients suspected to have Lassa fever or medical staff who attend to them, never get the right kind of care and treatment that could have prevented their condition from getting worse, or were even denied the prompt attention which could have prevented their death. In other countries, it is called an inquest.An inquest needs to be done in Dr. Chinedum's case, and those who failed him and so many others like him, need to be severely sanctioned!  |

MrHistorian: Are we still on this?
The Entire Northern states have the landmass to accommodate these cattle colonies or whatever they are called.
This can also prove to be an avenue to generate more IGR for states with low internal revenue.
The entire South has rejected cattle colony!!!!! Even the entire middle-Belt has rejected cattle colony, except for those 2 misguided dummies like Bello and Lalong.  Their people have categorically made it clear that cattle colonies, are a taboo, in their land. Nobody is interested in 5 benefits of cattle colonies. Even if those benefits rose to become 100 overnight, they would still NOT be interested. Let the Fulani herdsmen move to Bauchi to establish their cattle colony. Bauchi has enough land and water, to accommodate the cattle of those herdsmen! They also have enough militant Kanuri, Sayawa, Gerawa, Fa'awa, Butawa, Warjawa, Zulawa tribes etc., to teach those herdsmen a big lesson, if they misbehave.  In addition to rainfall, Bauchi state is watered by a number of rivers. They include the Gongola and Jama'are rivers.
The Gongola River crosses Bauchi state in Tafawa Balewa Local Government Area in the south, and in Kirfi and Alkaleri Local Government Areas in the eastern part of the state, while the Jama’are River cuts across a number of Local Government Areas in the northern part of the state.
Moreover, a substantial part of the Hadeja-Jama'are River basin lies in Bauchi state, which along with various fadama (floodplain) areas in the state provides suitable land for agricultural activities.
These are further supported by the number of dams meant for irrigation, and other purposes. These include the Gubi and Tilde-Fulani dams. There also lakes such as the Maladumba Lake in Misau Local Government Area, that further provide the necessary conditions to support agriculture.

theflightnewspa: Farm Attack : Falae, Adesina Trade Words
Former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, SGF, Chief Olu Falae has said he would not be intimidated over his sad experiences in the hands of rampaging herdsmen and expressed disappointment over the silence of President Muhammadu Buhari on the matter, following the recent attack on his farm in Ondo State.
This came as the Ondo State Government, yesterday vowed to regulate the activities of herdsmen in the state.
But when contacted, the Presidency kept mum on the attack as Special Adviser to President Buhari on Media and Publicity, Mr Femi Adesina said: “It is not a Presidency affair.”
The Ondo Police Command, however, assured that investigations are under way to nab the arsonist that perpetuated the act.
Falae spoke with newsmen after state government officials and the state Police Commissioner, Mr Adeyanju visited his farm, which was set ablaze in Ilado, Akure North area of the state.
He, however, vowed to resist intimidation and harassment by the herdsmen to chase him out of his farm of 32 years.
He said: “My farm has been destroyed five times within three years and it is a deliberate means to probably kill me, run me out of business and away from the farmland which is not possible.”
The former Finance Minister equally insisted that “there shall not be cattle colonies in any part of Yorubaland. It’s a fraud.”

Leopantro: REJECTED BY THE TEACHING HOSPITAL
Before I left, I had contacted the Public Health department again, to let them in on the new development, and the fact that we should seriously start making plans of tracing other people that patient zero may have contacted, and exposed unknowingly. Stupid me! But that's how I am wired; I am never really the type who looks out for himself alone.....
" Okay," I said; "now that you're still wearing PPE, can you at least help me site an IV line, and put me on IV fluids?" No, can't do; you're not on admission, and like I said, the hospital is not "aware" you're here. " What of Ribvirin; can I get it and start treating myself?" No, we can't give you that; we can't give you drugs without a definitive diagnosis.
"Excuse me? You're saying that in the setting of a potentially life-threatening ailment, you'd rather wait for a confirmatory diagnosis that may take days, possibly risking the patient's life, instead of starting life-saving treatment?" And he said something I considered condescending about the drugs having numerous side effects.
I scoffed. Drug side effects my foot! As if we were not taught about what to do when benefits outweighs risk in medical school.
At this point, there was no need engaging further; it was obvious this people were playing "political correctness" with my life.
Before they left, they said I should continue self-medicating with the ORS and Zinc, that I CAME WITH, to stay hydrated; and that I should be monitoring MY OWN vital signs, and let them know if "something" happens. Right; like if I enter into shock, my ghost would pick up my phone and start making calls, abi?
That was how I was left ALONE in a vast one storey complex, sick, with a thousand thoughts running through my head.....
https://facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1348158461955175&id=100002831036954&comment_id=1348210698616618&ref=opera_speed_dial&_rdr Wow!! I am beyond shocked!  . You mean this actually happened to a medical doctor here in Nigeria??  Guy, I am grateful that God spared your life and had mercy on you. But please this story should NOT be allowed to die! It needs to make the front pages of the newspapers. Those who trifled with your life, by making the wrong decisions, and left you to your fate must be called to account for their misdeeds!This is negligence at its peak!  This issue needs to be exposed so that remedial action can be taken. We do not have enough doctors within the system, and the few that remain are being treated with such disregard and horrible negligence.  This actually happened to a medical doctor. Thank God, he knew what to do to save his life!  If it had happened to an ordinary patient, he would have died. What am I even saying sef, the patient he was treating did die, but it was not due to lack of treatment or any negligence, on the doctor's part. He should actually get a medal for going over and above the call of duty, in the kind of care he showed to the patient!  But the health authorities who kept issuing stupid instructions, instead of taking action should be dealt with, severely. Heads should roll!!  Things will never get better, if we do not expose this kind of rot within the health system. Don't be surprised, money may have been voted and released for the supply of PPE's but it was never used for that purpose. Who is the Commissioner of Health in Edo State again? In another country, he would be sacked if such facts came to light.  cc: Seun, lalasticlala, please take this to front page!  It needs to remain on FP for at least 4 weeks! |

tomalin: Please , don't confuse sales and marketing . Sales and marketing are two different job roles that should not be used together as meaning the same thing .
What the OP has described is sales , of course it could be easy to get into the sales force of most organization because every organization will need to sell a certain good or service , so sales jobs can be very abundant , but then most of the jobs come with set sales targets that needs to be achieved . Although , most sales jobs comes with a base salary , but people that make good money in sales are those that are able to meet and exceed their targets and earn the commission that follow .
Marketing however is completely different from sales and in fact in most organizations, the two functions are separate , each with different functional heads . In most organizations you don't just get recruited to the marketing function , most people either get into marketing through organization's graduate training program , or hand picked from the organization and trained to become marketing specialist or people that have prior experience in the marketing functions in other organizations easily criss -cross and change jobs , another way to get to work in marketing is by having prior experience working in a creative agency . For some reasons also , "most" organizations don't tend to employ people with marketing degree to their marketing department . Thank you, o!

Just admit that your write up was referring to those who offer freelance services on foreign websites, and stop misleading others here. You probably lifted the article from one foreign site, and decided to embellish it, and repost it here, without considering the Nigerian context. See how you were referring to publications, publishing houses and copy writers, when you obviously knew nothing about the industry! Chai!! |

BiafranBushBoy: I no mention bloggers na...
Have you seen the salary scale of copywriters in big firms?
Editors in Publishing Organizations?
Lol... Go and ask. Am familiar with the advertising world. Copywriters don't earn much, except for their ogas that have been in the firm for years. Getting into a good well-paying advertising firm, is rather difficult. So where did you get this your idea of high employment rates from? And editors in publishing organisations? Which ones, biko?  Is it newspapers where many of them are either poorly-paid or not paid at all, for months in between? Do you even know how many years of experience you require before you get to the level of an Editor, from the entry level of a reporter? Or you think they just appoint people off the shelf, straight from school after graduation with little or no work experience, into the position of an Editor, just like that?  Pls tell me which magazine, newspaper or publication, does that, o!  Their reporters mostly survive from the tips or "PR" envelopes they get, after press conferences or interviews. |

BiafranBushBoy: Creative/Entertainment
The entertainment sector is already booming, but there is a new dimension to it now. We are in the digital age, and the creative guys are raking in all the thousands of Naira. It is a sector that comprises of what you can think of, and what you can do.
There are several job roles in the entertainment sector, and they include;
Media/Publicity Photography Graphics Design Editing (Video/Music) Animations/After Effects Writing, Proofreading, Editing
There are always jobs for people under this category. You don’t need a B.Sc. or Masters to earn as a creative guy. You only need your brain and skill. If you are interested in getting a career in creative arts, please subscribe to the blog and I will give you a guide.
The starting salary in this sector is from 60k – 100k depending on your experience.
Source: http://topwritersden.com/sector-with-high-employment-rate/ Which "Writing, Proofreading, Editing?" Biko, scratch out that part. Those chaps earn peanuts, and these days every copy-and-paste youth with a laptop or android phone, now calls himself a blogger. Too many people, adding too little value to the online world, with half of them peddling fake news, just to get views. Mtcheew.... |
