You just hit the nail on the head.

One thing is clear,
LP's petition is the most difficult petition that INEC/Tinubu's SANs have encountered.
It took them 21 days to write this hogwash.
This would have made sense if they replied the 2nd day.

It's just like the case of a boastful Student who believes he can solve any question posed to him in a one-hour test. After reading the question about 10times and for shame of submitting a blank sheet, decided to start writing nonsense about 5mins to the end of the test AND even asking for extra sheet.

How would it be heard that Wole Olanipekun (SAN) and 15 other SANs couldn't reply meaningfully?

Imagine them speaking as judges.
How can you say a petition is incompetent blablabla?

Go and prove that it is.

That's roughly $600k a month , that's roughly $7.2 million dollars a year. The project cost is around $850 million

so without maintenance , without paying anyone salary it would take 118 years to break even ......if we add salary n maintenance then you are looking at 300 years plus

850 million dollars to add 7.2 million dollars to our GDP is foolishness

With $850 million

We can give the top 10 ceramics importers $20 million each to build plants n stop importing ceramics .....this would save us $2 billion dollars yearly , plus boast GDP with over $3bn using only $200 million

Another $200million can be used to set up 10 cassava to ethanol factory giving that as loan to the biggest cassava farming unions ....we can be the biggest ethanol producer in the world ...with a potential to export over $2 billion ethanol and produce for local use also ...plus over 20,000 jobs

Same $200 million can be used to set up 10 to 20 cassava to glucose/ethanol plants ....we taking of a $70 billion dollars market we have absolutely great comparative advantage ...capture 15% of that that's over $10 billion a year industry

Rail lines are expensive luxury that never make profit we can't afford now

You absolutely right. The financial model for rail project were entirely wrong and there no way Nigeria can pay back the loans in 100 years. A serious govt would applied a PPP model for the rail projects. In this way, the Country will not indebted to no one. Amaechi is clever by half. He deliberately failed to mention how much they spend from the #300 million for maintenance and other overhead cost. And they had to even take from the #300 million to support the running of Lagos-Ibadan rail. At the end of the day the Country will not be able to repay the loans. Buhari has only been able to pay interest on the loans and not paid a dime on the capital.

Getting married to a girl who is old enough to be your daughter.


I also blame the girl, all these small girls like Regina too like money or what else would cause this type of madness.

She is not old enough to be his daughter but grand daughter. The man is 74 years old for crying out loud!

ByeByeMan:
If you were smart you would understand my question. You need to think outside the box if you want to make smart decisions. Firstly for them to make 5k per day and pay you 30k weekly and still pay the riders and the staffs at the office and still keep some profit means they would have to be making at least double what they are giving you per day. They said it themselves that they rent the bikes from you for 5k/day. So if they can only make 5k/day then how is this a profitable business ? Unless you are an agent for them then Nigerians need to do better and learn to ask more questions before jumping into things with their hard earned money and attacking people who are willing to do the thinking and ask the right questions.

So my question still stands, do delivery bikes make up to 10k/day ? Is it possible or not ? Some people claim to make 15 - 20k per day. You have to ask yourself some questions that make sense to you even if it doesn't make sense to anyone else. If it doesn't make sense to you then you have to hold on to your money.

The delivery bikes make more than 10k a day. I wanted a bike to deliver something and return it back at ikeja from Anthony sometime ago, they charged me 2.5k. It is really a booming business. You can get a bike and run it yourself.

Big congratulations IfeOluwa! Greater heights in Jesus name.

They have done that since July 2020, this is October, why are they just announcing now?

Exactly. FG stopped paying the salaries of the lecturers since July. This govt and propaganda.

Luckydubby7:
God bless this minister
That's exactly what's happening now.
If u go to hospital they we be asking covid19 test.

You are definitely gullible to take the words of the minister.

Have you asked yourself if the minister have provided the PPE and relevant equipment to the public Hospitals? You want the health workers to keep endearing their lives and families for the negligence by the FG. Up till now the health workers working a covid 19 centers have not been paid their allowances.

Macphenson:
All facets of this Buhari regime reeks of incompetence, myopicness , cluelessness and above all, monumental corruption.

I guess it is the doctors that made the ASO Rock clinic not to have a single ventilator despite allocating #13B for five years.

I guess it is the doctors that are responsible for decay in infrastructure in the health sector.

I guess it is the doctors that said " doctors should go into farming" and not give a damn as the western world are draining our best brains.

I guess it is the doctors that reduced the budgetary allocation for health sector in a time of pandemic.

I have never seen a government so useless that the only thing it is good at is to blame others of what it is solely responsible for.

Well said

08034016207

This govt is full of lies and propaganda. When did lecturers start preparing salaries. It's non academic staff like bursar, accountant that prepare salaries and not ASUU. If the govt really want to stop corruption they should send auditors to the universities occasionally and not keep peddling propaganda just to discredit ASUU.

The section 2a of the NYSC act has already cleared the air on this issue.

Read below the NYSC act(law guiding the NYSC scheme):
http://lawnigeria.com/LawsoftheFederation/NATIONAL-YOUTH-SERVICE-CORPS-ACT.html

If Kemi Adeosun actually graduated at the age 22 then there was no way she could have been issued an exemption letter by the NYSC.

Nigeria GDP was below 1% in 2017 and yet the govt is beating chest on GDP.

Maybe it was just the ground breaking ceremony.
But honestly, 85KW power project should be a final year project for Electrical/Electronics Engineering student.

The generator in my office generates 500KW power.

Anybody that does have his or her PVC( Permanent Voters Card) should please get one. The only way to stop this ineptitude and insensitivity to the plight of Nigerians is to vote OUT this government 2019.

Diabetes is broadly classified into type 1 and type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DM). My discussion here is focused on type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Diabetes mellitus is a disease that can be inherited or acquired as a result of our lifestyles. Usually, the disease occurs as a result of an interaction between these two factors.
The tendency to inherit DM goes as far back as racial differences. Africans have a high risk of having DM. If one has a parent or sibling with Type 2 DM there is a risk of having the disease.
Coming to lifestyle factors contributing to the development of DM, these include

Intake of excess calorie
A calorie is the energy one derives from food. It is excessive when one consumes more than he or she needs. A lot of discussions has been going on of late on how sugar intake is poisonous. This is because an average American takes more than he or she needs. I am not sure if this is true for us (in Nigeria) considering the economic situation in the country. But the fact remains that DM occurs as a result of excessive calorie intake.

Obesity
Obesity is associated with the development of DM. Obesity is diagnosed when the BMI is greater than 30mg/kg. This may occur as a result of excessive calorie intake, lack of exercise and other factors. Improving your weight will help you to reduce the risk of DM.

Many people have suffered a stroke or have witnessed a relative or friend who suffered a stroke. Some people recover fully, while another recover with moderate to severe disability. On the other end of the spectrum is death. The outcome is based on the presence and number of risk factors as well as the care someone receives after a stroke.

The importance of regular follow-up with your doctor
If you have suffered a stroke, you need to follow up with a neurologist so that you won’t suffer a repeat stroke. This is because the conditions that caused the first stroke are still likely to be present.
Identification of the risk factor for a stroke is important. These risk factors include hypertension, diabetes mellitus, smoking, excessive alcohol intake and lack of exercise.
Your doctor will also help to address these and other complications that may occur following a stroke.
Your doctor will help you to:
• Identify the causes of the stroke and treat them.
• Put you on medications to prevent a second stroke.
• If you are suffering from disabilities (like post-stroke pain) following a stroke, the doctor will help modify these.
• Refer you to other specialists if required.

When I think of diabetes, the picture that readily comes to mind is that of a hungry man surrounded by very rich delicacies who could not eat because his mouth has been sewn shut! Starving amidst plenty!
People with diabetes have a high level of blood sugar and this is due to deficiency of or a resistance to a chemical in the body called insulin.
This chemical (Insulin) acts like a key that opens up the cells in the body to take up sugar from the blood. The cell is the smallest functional unit of the body.
When insulin is not enough, the cells cannot take up sugar from the blood. The whole body is starved as a result of this giving a picture of excessive sugar in the blood and low sugar levels in the cells. A situation of starving amidst plenty.
In some instances, insulin is available but the cells can not respond effectively to insulin- this is called insulin resistance. I am sure we have all faced situations in which our keys failed to open a door because the lock was damaged. This is like what happens in insulin resistance, there is a problem at the point where insulin is attached to the cells.
The main reason why people have Diabetes mellitus is linked to problems with insulin. Situations that will lead to a deficiency of insulin will cause Diabetes mellitus. We will discuss this in the next article.

About fifteen years ago, I was walking down my neighbourhood with a childhood friend when I suddenly heard a loud cry from her. On turning to her, I noticed that she was on the floor, jerking and foaming at the mouth. I stepped back, watched her for a split second and disappeared into the crowd that had gathered at a distance. Nobody wanted to touch or be touched by her. And I didn’t want to be associated with someone who had seizures.

I watched from a distance, there she was, jerking, unaware of what was happening to her, lying on a road surrounded by strangers who were not willing to lift a finger to help her. Instead, they were content watching her jerk and giving side comments. She could get wounded! She could choke on her secretions! In a flash, I understood the gravity of what was happening to her and what I had done. I slowly made my way back to her, by this time she had slept off, I carefully placed her on her side with her head extended. I then arranged for her transfer to the hospital.
Of course, I knew what happened to her - She had a seizure! I know a little about the disease being an avid reader. I know that a seizure is a disease just like other diseases. I know it is not contagious and I also know that it is treatable.

Why did I run away from my friend? Because I was afraid of what people will say. Some people even consider it a taboo to mention the word epilepsy or seizures around them. It was a defining moment for me. A decrescendo - crescendo experience. I must confess I feel ashamed when I remember the first part of the story (where I fled from my friend) and I feel like a hero who could stand up for love and commitment when it comes to friendship when I recall the second part.
Of course, I only remembered to tell her and others who cared to listen about how I saved the situation. Somehow my brain decided to forget about the part where I initially disappeared.

I will discuss the causes of epilepsy and mention the causes of a single seizure at the end of this article. Remember I tried to distinguish between seizures and epilepsy in my previous article. Seizures are the abnormal movement, sensation, behaviours and other manifestations that occur as a result of the excessive activity of some brain regions. While epilepsy is said to occur when someone has recurrent unprovoked seizures.

Causes of Epilepsy

Genetic causes
Firstly, the tendency for the brain to have seizure could be inherited. This is called a genetic cause. Genetics causes of epilepsy are suspected when a family member has epilepsy. This is why doctors appear nosy at times when they start asking questions about people with similar diseases in the family. They want to know if the condition they are dealing with is inherited.

A result of a long-standing brain damage/disorder
Sometimes, epilepsy may occur as a result of underlying diseases of or damage to the brain. These conditions cause the brain to function abnormally. This could occur at any stage of life. In early childhood, epilepsy could occur from brain damage from prolonged and poorly supervised labour. Other causes of brain damage that predispose to epilepsy include neonatal jaundice and brain infections like meningitis, encephalitis, and abscess. Similar infections could cause epilepsy in adults. Another important cause of epilepsy is the presence of brain tumour. In fact, this is one of the main reasons a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is required. Epilepsy could also develop following a remote stroke and traumatic event. Blood vessels abnormality and diseases like dementia are also associated with the development of epilepsy.

Not all seizures will cause people to convulse (jerk). There are several types of seizures that occur without jerking. The purpose of this article is to create an awareness about other types of seizures so that people can seek medical help for this commonly misunderstood symptoms.
The manifestation of seizures is dependent on the area of the brain affected and the extent of involvement. Generally, seizures are classified into two main groups – generalized and focal.
Generalized seizures occur when seizures foci occur concurrently on both sides of the brain while focal seizures imply that the seizure occurs from a side of the brain.
Writing this was actually challenging for me. I tried not to include the medical terms for the description of the seizure types, but it was difficult doing this without including the names. But for simplicity purpose, it is important to note that not all seizures are associated with jerking, there could be abnormal sensations, cognitive and psychic manifestations.
Another point is that not all seizures are associated with loss of awareness, people with focal seizures may or may not loose awareness.
Occasionally, people with impairment of consciousness manifest repetitive movements called automatism. These movements include walking, running, vocalization, undressing and aggression if they perceive a threat.

Generalized seizures
Generalized seizures can manifest as:
1. Generalized tonic - clonic seizure: This is the type that is easily recognized by people. It was initially called grand mal seizure. The person suddenly loses consciousness. Sometimes a loud cry is heard at the onset of seizures, with stiffening of the whole body. This is followed by rhythmic jerking of the whole body. This could last about 2-3mins.
2. Tonic seizures - In some people, only the stiffening of the body occur with no jerking. This is the period when the eyes roll up with the teeth clenched.
3. Clonic seizures - In other the rhythmic jerking is the only manifestation seen.
4. Myoclonic seizures – These are very brief jerks lasting a fraction of a second. During myoclonic seizures dropping the object. This is the only generalized seizure with no loss of consciousness here, unlike all the other generalized seizures. The patient can describe what is happening lucidly.

Hypertension – Common because of our Genetics and Lifestyle.
About one billion people have hypertension globally with about 2/3 of these people living in developing countries like Nigeria. In Nigeria, an estimated of 50 million people have hypertension, which is about a quarter of our total population.
The reason why we have a high prevalence of hypertension is due to our genes. Most of us will inherit the tendency to have hypertension just the same way our skin colour, height, and other traits are inherited. Blacks generally don’t handle salt well as other races. We have a tendency to retain salt, this subsequently leads to a risk of developing hypertension – this is the rationale for advocating low salt diet.
Similarly, our lifestyle contributes to the development of hypertension – high salt, smoking, excessive alcohol ingestion, lack of exercise and se;dentary lifestyle.
Other factors include age, sex and other conditions like Diabetes, obesity, high cholesterol levels are also associated with a higher risk of developing hypertension.

• Most people with hypertension don’t show any sign or symptom.
Hypertension is called a silent killer disease because it does not have specific signs and symptoms. I am sure you can guess someone has severe malaria if you see their looks, people with hypertension don’t look different from those who don’t have hypertension.

There is over-reliance on drugs in our environment. Some people would rather take drugs than go through physiotherapy and other lifestyle modification activities to prevent diseases, unfortunately, not all conditions can be treated with drugs.
Following a stroke, a large proportion of individuals are left with paralysis of the limbs and oftentimes the doctor recommends physiotherapy in addition to drugs and other forms of treatment.
Physiotherapy is the most important contributor to functional outcome following paralysis from a stroke. Thus the need for physiotherapy cannot be overemphasized.

Benefits of Physiotherapy
1. It helps restore limb function
A person who undergoes physiotherapy after suffering from a stroke is more likely to regain the use of the limbs to a greater extent compared to someone who didn’t have physiotherapy. Furthermore, the earlier physiotherapy is instituted, the higher the likelihood of a better outcome with regard to muscle power. Therapy is more beneficial when commenced early usually in the first 24 hours after assessment and evaluation of the stroke by a physician. The first 3 to 6 months is the best time to obtain maximal benefits, although individuals still recover after this period, progress is slower and less predictable.
The duration of therapy also contributes to the outcome. The longer the exposure to therapy, the better the outcome. An individual who has sessions of about 15 hours in the first week following a stroke will do better than someone who has less. Of course, activities have to be tailored to the tolerance of the person suffering from a stroke.

2. Reduces the risk of contractures
Apart from regaining strength in the muscles, individuals who undergo physical therapy are less likely to develop contractures. Contractures are the limitation of movement of the limbs due to the stiffness of the ligaments and muscles following prolonged immobility.

Thank you. Please click on the link for no 4 & 5 and related topics.

1. Seizures are caused by evil possession
Seizures are not caused by evil possession the same way malaria is not caused by evil possession. It is a disease like any other kind of disease. And with good management, a considerable number of people will be seizure free.

2. Seizures are caused by eating lizards
This is not true either. Lizards are eaten as food in some parts of the world and the incidence or prevalence of epilepsy is not higher in those areas. In fact, we have a higher prevalence of epilepsy/seizure disorders and the lizard is not part of our delicacies.

3. People can get infected with seizures by touching the saliva of people having seizures
This is also a lie because epilepsy/seizures are not communicable/ infectious diseases.

What are seizures?
Seizures are abnormal movements or sensations which occur as a result of excessive activities of some parts of the brain. The manifestation depends on the part of the brain affected, for example, if the area affected is responsible for movement, abnormal movements like jerking may be observed. In severe cases, it leads to loss of consciousness.
When seizures occur repeatedly, it is called epilepsy. Occasionally, a doctor may make a diagnosis of epilepsy after a single seizure.

What causes seizures?
Seizures are caused by several factors which include damage to some parts of the brain following trauma, infections, seizures, tumors, birth injury and jaundice. Some drugs like tramadol and some antibiotics may precipitate a seizure.
Sometimes the tendency to have repeated seizure is inherited from parents just like heights and other traits could be inherited. Oftentimes it might be impossible to identify the cause of a seizure. The doctor will usually ask some questions, examine the patient and carry out some tests to identify the cause of seizures.

Are seizures contagious?
Seizures are not contagious, touching a person with seizures or the saliva does not cause seizures.

There are medical advice given to people with epilepsy. The purpose is to protect the patient from injuries because the occurrence of seizures are unpredictable.
If you are having frequent seizures, it is advisable to stop some activities or modify some activities till you are seizure free for at least a year. The rationale for these temporary restrictions are to protect you from harm. Imagine having a seizure while driving! The rest of the story is better imagined!
• Avoid driving
• Avoid swimming
• Avoid working with dangerous equipment
• If possible, try not to live alone
• Avoid locking yourself in enclosed spaces like the bathroom
• Eat well, rest well and sleep well
• Always remember to take your medications regularly – the aim of giving drugs for seizures is to prevent seizures. Unfortunately, it is difficult predicting when an attack will occur, so it is recommended you take your drugs daily and preferably at the same time. Not taking medications regularly could lead to a breakthrough seizure.
• Do not use drugs without prescription and avoid herbals supplements (unless you are 100% of what it contains) and alcohol.

When to stop anti-epileptic drugs.
The type of seizure and the causative agent usually determines the duration of treatment. For some types of epilepsy, stopping anti-epileptic drugs after 2- 3 years of seizure freedom may be considered. Your doctor will determine when it is safe for you to stop your medications.

When should I stop my anti-hypertensive drugs?
Before I answer this question, let me give you a little background on hypertension. Hypertension is divided into two major groups based on the causative factors. The first is essential or primary hypertension while the second is secondary hypertension. For secondary hypertension we can identify a specific factor causing hypertension and removal of the cause (when possible) will lead to the resolution of hypertension. On the other hand, no single factor can be blamed for the development of essential hypertension. Although, we know an interaction between genetics and environmental factors play a role in the development of essential hypertension. So because there is no single definitive cause, we cannot totally eliminate all these factors. As long as we can’t remove all the factors, hypertension will remain. So once the blood pressure is high enough to require drugs you will need to continue taking your drugs. However, there may be a need to readjust your medications from time to time.

I am worried about the adverse effects that could occur as a result of taking anti-hypertensive drugs!
It is true that anti-hypertensive drugs could cause adverse effects just like any other drug. It is advisable to discuss with your doctor if you experience any adverse effects. Some adverse effects can be handled by reducing the dose of your drugs or totally changing the medication. Anti-hypertensive drugs are relatively safe with prolonged use, unlike some other drugs that can only be used for a short period of time. I will emphasize that if you experience any unwanted effects please see your doctor, there are a million and one anti-hypertensive drugs out there in the market.

My blood pressure is still above 140/90mmHg and I take my drugs regularly, what do I do?
If this occurs, it could be that the dose of your antihypertensive drugs is not adequate. The dose or number of your drugs may need to be adjusted. On the other hand, there could be other conditions responsible for this. Please discuss with your doctor.

I take my antihypertensive drugs regularly, my blood pressure is only high in the hospital but it is usually well controlled at home.
If this happens, please take your blood pressure monitor/sphygmomanometer to the hospital and compare with the readings in the hospital to validate. If the readings are different in the hospital then the problem is likely with your sphygmomanometer/ blood pressure monitor. You will need to change your monitor.

However, if the readings are the same then you probably have white coat hypertension. This is when the blood pressure is high only in the hospital setting due to the anxiety of being in a hospital environment. Please let your doctor know about this if you are having such an experience.

CC:lalasticala this post deserve the front page.

Here are a few questions and answers on hypertension. See my article on 5 lies about hypertension. Please feel free to send your questions and comments on my blog. I will be willing to answer your questions.

How often should I check my blood pressure to detect hypertension considering my blood pressure has been normal?
It is recommended that you check your blood pressure at least yearly once you are 18years. I believe I am addressing Africans) This is because of a relatively higher risk of developing hypertension in Africans. In some other races like the Caucasians where the risk of hypertension is low, checking the blood pressure once in 3-5 years if there are no other associated risks of developing hypertension is adequate.

What do I do if my blood pressure becomes too low?
If your blood pressure becomes too low, if you have not taken your antihypertensive drug, please skip the next dose and seek medical attention. On the other hand, if you have taken your medication, please seek medical attention.

How do I know if my blood pressure becomes too low?
Usually, if your blood pressure becomes too low, you may begin to feel lightheaded, dizzy, tired or generally weak. The earliest sign of a low blood pressure is feeling light headed on getting up from a sitting position. The blood pressure measured will be much lower than your usual reading. Generally, a blood pressure of 90/60mmHg or lower is termed hypotension –low blood pressure. However, for people who have had a relatively high blood pressure, a drastic drop of blood could give features of hypotension even if the blood pressure is above 90/60mmHg. A range of 115-139/70-89mmHg is fine for most people. Sometimes your doctor might want it lower or higher in some cases. If your blood pressure becomes too low, it is advisable for you to see your doctor. In summary suspect, a low blood pressure if you begin to feel dizzy, tired, light headed and your blood pressure measurement confirms a lower reading that previous blood pressure range.

What are the likely causes of a low blood pressure?
Likely causes of low blood pressure include a higher than required dose of antihypertensives, a change in brand of drugs and in some cases of lifestyle changes like drastic weight loss in combination with other lifestyle modification. Other causes include severe dehydration from vomiting, diarrhea and reduced oral intake, some severe infections and some drug interactions.

This article is for people who have a high risk of hypertension. These are people who have first-degree relatives with hypertension, adults who are 40 years and above, people who are overweight or obese and people who consume a high quantity of alcohol. This also includes people who consume a high level of alcohol and smoke. And lastly for those who are of African descent. I think I belong to one or two of these groups.
I forgot to add smoking, lack of exercise, sedentary lifestyle, an unhealthy diet including high salt intake and for women who had hypertension in pregnancy. See my article on "hypertension –Introduction".

So how do we prevent ourselves from developing hypertension?
First, let us identify our risks of developing hypertension. Some can be changed, others cannot be changed. The risk that can be changed are termed modifiable risk factor and those that can’t be changed are called non-modifiable risk factors.
For example factors like race, age, sex, family history of hypertension cannot be changed in the same way we cannot change our biological parents. – So, these risks are non-modifiable.
For modifiable risk factors, changing these has been shown to delay the onset of hypertension.
Although we may not be able to totally prevent hypertension in some people, can delay the onset which is a form of partial prevention.
