My brother, it is noise. Public spaces are meant for everyone regardless of religious or tribal affiliation and everyone is free to use them the way they want, so long as they don't disturb others. What if someone who doesn't want to listen to your message owns a shop I'm the same motor park? Should he/she relocate because of you? If you approach people individually and talk to them, you give them that choice of agreeing or refusing to give you audience. By using a loudspeaker or megaphone, you are taking that choice away from them by force which is ultimately a breach on their rights as equal citizens of this country.

There’s used to be this man that would walk up and down my street every morning by 6:30 am, preaching with a megaphone, and waking people who want to get that last bit of sleep in before they have to drag themselves up and go to work or school before they want to. The funny part is that majority of the residents of my street are Christians and he was eventually banned from entering the street by the street chairman. You know the ironic part. The street chairman is also a pastor.

Reminds me of one of my neighbours who is a consultant. The guy was awake all night in the theatre, saving people's lives and came back by 5am to catch two hours of sleep before going back to work. A man came to the street by 5.30am and started preaching with a loud gramophone. The consultant got so angry, he came out of his house, went to the preacher, grabbed the gramophone and smashed it on the floor. He then went back to his bed and slept peacefully.

This is by no means the world's smallest alternator .You should stop making baseless claims out of ignorance.

I found a practical application of this device.

Potenco Power Generator.

The company claims that one minute of pulling its human-power electricity generator can give a user 1 hour of light, 25 minutes of mobile phone talk time, 45 minutes on the Nintendo DS, and an impressive 230 minutes of iPod shuffle music - about one song per pull!

I said generator not alternator

hollandis:
Well Elfrufai is just abusive to God and Christians.

It is a pity ,people are now mocking God

Whereas the Bible says ,"Be not deceived .God is not mocked ,whatever you sow you shall also reap "

The Lord God also said " vengeance is mine, said the Lord ".
He doesn't need you or an apostle to do what he wants to do.

sukkot:
it works all the time. we have used it to power light bulbs and things when camping in remote parts of the world with no electricity and no fuel

What's the maximum load and type of devices you have connected to it?

sukkot:
how about connecting it to a motor and car battery ? use the car battery to run the motor and the motor to run the wind mill thing and connect the car battery to an alternator to charge it synchronously and attach the alternator to an inverter which gets its juice from the car battery

thats the best i can think of right now

This is a wonderful setup; didn't even think to this Level. Will look into this, thank you.

I don't sell it.
Anyone can create it by himself or herself.
You don't need to buy it from me. You can make it yourself. Simply look for someone that repairs microwave ovens and washing machine. Tell him that you want to buy that motor beneath the round glass that turns it around. You might be lucky to pick one up from a spolt microwave. Simply connect the wires and you are good to go

For those that can't watch the video, read about it here

Mattkent:
I like this idea. Have you ever tot of having it big? Like a wind mill ? Where I reside in Lagos we have a big balcony and the breeze always pushes our rubber chair around. I always imagined if we had a wind mill.

Will work wonderfully as a windmill. Make sure the wings are large, try and oil the part that turns thus making it free, use energy saving bulbs. If you get a couple do not connect them together ; voltage output can get quite high.

Femiii:
where can i get one? i av an idea 2 eliminate d human effort

I got it from someone that repairs microwave ovens and washing machines.

OCTAVO:
How much did you get yours?

Bought the motor for 1k, electrical wires and an extension about N500.
Carries two energy saving bulbs.

I came across plans for a kinetic shoe. You place a device in the sole of your shoes and go jogging with it. After a certain duration, you bring it out, connect it to a female USB port and supply electricity to devices.
They're many Internet sites in how to generate electricity but most of the parts are not avaliable in Nigeria. Have to order them but the dollar....

Mattkent:
Tanx for this. Even tho business management is my major I always fancied things like this. Altho I'm curious on how to get that rotating without d use of ones hand.

I just did.
Instead of using your hands, you can Google plans on how to create a windmill and use the spokes to attach the wings. The whole setup can be placed in an area with adequate ventilation and the wind will turn it for you.
To be more creative, you can use it to create a water wheel of you reside close to a fast flowing river.
Also, if you own a pet hamster, you can connect it to the toy wheel.

Granted it's slow in charging a phone but it's better than nothing.

Randerl:
Principle of Dynamo on Bicycles.

Exactly

One important note, even you make it, connect it to an extension WITHOUT fuse. The 13A fuse limits the current that it creates.
I use a blackberry playbook charger and, for those that know the charger, it charges fast. Takes about 3 minutes for one percentage.

Sigh.

It uses the principle of windmill to charge your phone.

No fuel?
No electricity?
Why don't you make the world's smallest generator.
Cost about N2k.
At least charge your phone and tablets with it

At maximum rotation, it produces up to 400V so be careful to avoid electric shock.
To understand the principle behind it and how to modify it to your need, see the video

With all due respect sir, you have started talking like a politician.
In one breath you said

“We cannot continue to turn poor patients away from the hospitals. The poverty indicator shows that 60 to 70 percent of Nigerians is poor.

In another breath, you said

He lamented poor funding of the health care, saying there was chronic underfunding of the sector

How then do you want the hospital to cater to the poor it must not turn away when it is severely underfunded?

Just at lawyers or judges have a vacation to defend or judge individuals, they also have the autonomy to refuse to defend our judge a case if they feel there will be a conflict of interest in such a case. Case in point is the query issued to a judge recently in a state in Nigeria and the withdrawal of judges in political cases.

Also, in the definition of patient
patient /ˈpeɪʃ(ə)nt/
adjective
able to accept or tolerate delays, problems, or suffering without becoming annoyed or anxious.
noun
1. a person receiving or registered to receive medical treatment.

The individual must be receiving treatment from the doctor or the doctor must have accepted the individual for treatment. A doctor has the autonomy to refuse to administer treatment to a patient. If a patient from a road traffic accident gets to a hospital owned by an ophthalmologist, the doctor can refuse to treat or even stabilize the patient because by accepting the patient, the health of that patient becomes your responsibility.
Medical students are taught from school that when you come upon a road traffic accident, you have an obligation to help but you don't have a RIGHT to help because your action or inaction once you decide to help will be accountable and possibly judged.

Finally, those who keep shouting about the hippocratic Oath, know that the Oath is over 2500 years old and is a declaration to a god. The modern one has variations depending on your location or institution, is also dependent on the old one which swears to a god who surpassed YOUR God 2500 ago.

EreluY:
[b]The vast majority of you on this thread are dead ignorant. The worst ignoramus Nigerians are the degree holders (BA Akungba, MA Ekpoma, PhD Ekpoma/Ibadan/Ogbomoso/Ilorin, or whatever) who I describe as certificated but uneducated and unenlightened. Get out of that zoo called Nigeria, study abroad (and I'm not talking about going to study in Ukraine), gain some practical experience, pass through the overseas experience and let the experience pass through you by allowing it to form and shape your future practice. Those questioning my understanding of what I'm talking about, if after reading my responses on this thread and you still don't have a clue, then go and bow your head in shame and get yourselves a good education. I am sufficiently educated and a fat cat in the city.

Now listen, if you will. In its 2015/2016 prospectus, the University of Oxford states that "Medicine is a vocational degree, which allows you to develop the practical and clinical capabilities specific to medicine, as well as the professional and personal attributes that are necessary to be a doctor." Similar document published by the Yale Medical School states that "Medicine is, first and foremost, a vocation that requires a commitment to professionalism and service humankind." Note the recurrence of, and emphasis on, vocation, in both citations.

Those of you making reference to being asked to pay medical bills in overseas hospitals, thanks for displaying your ignorance. I've lived in the UK for 20 years or so, and have travelled widely across Europe and North America. It's hospital administration that pursues payments (including legal pursuits of non-payments) and not doctors. Even so, it's always after (not before) medical treatment. And, if you were talking about medical treatment and payment in India and Pakistan - that's not my cuppa tea. In sane climes, a doctor or nurse (if caught) would have her/his practice licence revoked for walking/driving past an accident scene without intervening not to mention failing to attend to a patient due to non payment of medical bills.

Further to my claim on the relevance of the the Hippocratic oath "a ​promise made by ​people when they ​become ​doctors to do everything ​possible to ​help ​their ​patients and to have high ​moral ​standards in ​their ​work", the most recent revision (2006) of The Declaration of Geneva (Physician's Oath), as currently published by the World Medical Association, poignantly states: At the time of being admitted as a member of the medical profession:
"I solemnly pledge to [size=18pt]consecrate my life to the service of humanity[/size];
I will give to my teachers the respect and gratitude that is their due;
I will practice my profession with conscience and dignity;
[size=18pt]The health of my patient will be my first consideration[/size];
I will respect the secrets that are confided in me, even after the patient has died;
I will maintain by all the means in my power, the honour and the noble traditions of the medical profession;
My colleagues will be my sisters and brothers;
I will not permit considerations of age, disease or disability, creed, ethnic origin, gender, nationality, political affiliation, race, sexual orientation, social standing or any other factor to intervene between my duty and my patient;
I will maintain [size=18pt]the utmost respect for human life[/size];
I will not use my medical knowledge to violate human rights and civil liberties, even under threat;
I make these promises solemnly, freely and upon my honour."


Note the emboldened phrases or sentences in the Declaration. If you have forgotten the physicians oath you took, that's a reminder.

On a final note, if you entered the field of medicine not considering the fact that it's first and foremost a vocation (just like the priesthood), then get out of it. You have vowed to not only "consecrate your life to the service of humanity," but also ascertain that "the health of your patients will be your first consideration". So, if you fail to attend to a patient for financial reasons and the patient eventually dies due to your inaction, not only is the patient's blood upon you (if you have a conscience), you should be struck off the medical register, prosecuted and sentenced for failing to act professionally. Like the medical vocation, some entered into priesthood (and 'am not talking about pastors in 'Penterascal' churches) thinking it's a bed of roses. Some left on realising that it's a vicarious or sacrificial calling to go and do something else e.g. university lectureships/professorships, etc.

I KNOW THIS IS PROVOCATIVE, YET IT'S NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH. [/b]

Do you know of the shortfalls of both the original and the modern hippocratic Oath? Much as you are fixated on it, certain portions of it cannot stand in a court of law.
Not this

This precept, which holds that physicians must care for all that need their care with equal concern and dedication independent of their ability to pay, should be removed as it applies to physicians in private practice, not institutions such as hospitals. Physicians have a right to refuse any patient in a time of non-emergency, even if they do so because the patient cannot pay. While it is admirable when physicians aim to be impartial to patient financial status, the inclusion of this idealized precept ignores current trends in medicine, conflicts with the mutual model of medicine, and – above all – violates physician autonomy.

Firstly, healthcare is increasingly becoming a service-oriented industry, and while health should always be recognized as a common good as opposed to a commodity, the fact that physicians are filling a social need – the common good – as well as the needs of their patients as individuals does not mean that the needs of the physicians can be ignored (Pellegrino, 2008c, p. 414). In the mutual model of medicine, both the patient’s and the physician’s needs are taken into account. Therefore, just as physicians have responsibilities, so do patients, responsibilities such as fidelity, justice (eg. not to abuse malpractice), and to pay their bills. When the physician knows that the patient will violate their covenant, the physician is not obligated to become responsible for them; instead, the physician is obligated to assist the patient in finding another provider. This act of refusing someone before he or she becomes a patient is an exercise of the physician’s autonomy.

Only the body? What major changes have occurred, comparing it to the S6? Innovative changes in phones have reached a plateau.

Drfinn:
My noble colleague I feel your pain. It's a reoccurring decimal in every part of Nigeria. The amount of debt owed my facility last year was staggering. I tried severally to recoup always met with pleas and cries.

It takes a doctor with a heart for humanity such as yours to attend to patients before asking for money. It's rather saddening that these patients and their relatives hardly appreciate or seem to reciprocate your kindness. I managed a case of eclampsia last year. D lady was rushed to d clinic while I was in another city. I abandoned every engagement, rushed back and took charge of the situation. Dat was 7months ago. Till date her people are yet to settle their bills.

D one dat hurts was a woman whose child was admitted in a critical condition. After painstakingly taking care of this child. The mother turned around to abuse my workers and vowed never to pay her outstanding bills. Dat was 5 months ago. Till date am yet to c a dime. D list is endless.

Dats why when people bash doctors anyhow I only laugh at their foolishness. They don't know the pains, sacrifice, sleepless nights and inconveniences you endure to see dat another of God's creature recover from whatever malady dat befell dem. The life of a doctor revolves around people. His/her patients.

The failure of society, by dat I mean government, religious organisations, and media to appreciate health is one of the reasons doctors seem to turn the blind eye. The government cares less about the Health and health needs of the citizenry. Primary health care is virtually absent in this country. And where it exists, under funding is a major issue. Religious organisations have taken it upon demselves to play God with people's health. A pregnant woman almost lost her baby simply because her supposed bishop kicked against cesarean section. My boss was helpless. It took wisdom for me to convince her before she accepted. Baby survived was referred to see a neonatologist!

The media seem to glamorise the quackery of herbal practitioners. A day doesn't go by without seeing these evil people on television programs advertising there fake herbs. A woman once came with a gallon of concoction to see me at the clinic. She told me one of these herbal doctors gave her to enable her conceive a boy cos her husband and his people her on her neck. This woman was supposedly educated. I laughed at her folly and counsel her right. Today she's a proud mother of two boys. I believe the media need to downgrade the publicity given these wolves in sheep clothing.

To my noble colleague and all doctors let's continue to be guided by the physician's oath we took. It's a calling. However, let's put measures in place to recoup every penny expended on our patients. It has been my belief that human life comes first. I will continue to uphold the sanctity of human life. And I pray that government, religious organisations, the media and indeed every one join hands in building a health nation. Health is wealth.

For how long will you be father Christmas. Note that even in America, that places health on a high level, you must pay if you are not in insurance. If you can't pay, they would stabilize you and bounce you. You have a family to take care of and bills to pay.

As for religion, a girl has tetanus and was taken to a church were she s was told it was evil spirits. During the prayer session her two hands were broken. When the spirit refused to leave they referred her to our hospital. First was a down payment before admission and at the end of treatment, we also charged for her stupidity ( a graduate)

claremont:
It's not every treatment though, is it?! He still gets paid from patients, from in-house Pharmacy, and from Sales Reps. I understand that some patients choose not to pay, but future emergencies shouldn't be sacrificed on the grounds that patients in the past didn't pay. The oath the OP swore to protect life first at all costs also applies in Nigeria. It's just my opinion.

Story.
What if he employs you in the hospital and at the end of the month tells you that his patients haven't paid but because of his Oath he can't force them to pay and you should wait till next month. Your mouth will change.

can u now c dat u are no way better dan him? Dis statement u av just made is wrongly constructed

Since you are from the same University let me help you.

Can you now see that you are not better than him? This statement you have just made is constructed wrongly.

I believe (not) you are also a graduate. Kindly read what this jambite wrote and compare to the person you have been defending.

I've gone through the guy's Facebook page and if he speaks as bad as he writes then abandon all hope, England language.

GOOD LORD. it just hit me. The guy you have been defending would soon go for NYSC and will be posted to a school to teach.

9ijaprince:
Pls am a bit lost here, I thought I could charge the battery alone if I want without connecting to UPS,does ups have any role to play in charging the battery?

Sorry I was busy then.
It shows green when the batteries are fully charged. If left for a few days and the charger is reconnected, the light will turn red for a few minutes then turn green again. In my case I had to charge the batteries while the UPS was disconnected from the batteries for it to work properly. When fully charged I reconnect the wires to use it. The problem was from the UPS.

Sadly, I don't use it any more, my setup got burnt from an electrical surge. Also burnt my two generators close to it.
