HealthRe: Bayelsa Hospital Drags Corpses To Court by linearity: 1:13pm On Jun 23, 2016
dominique:
They should have just buried the corpses, they don't need any court ruling before doing that
They can't without the consent of the relatives and it appear that, the laws are silent on what happens, if no one comes up to claim the bodies, hence the court order, in case someone from somewhere comes up tomorrow and sue them for burying their relative without their consent.

Yes, in the ensuing court case, the government will win, if they argue abandonment, but they would have to spend money to defend themselves each time those cases comes up(some hospital will even settle to avoid going to court)...but with this order, even if anyone file any case, it will be tossed after administrative hearing during pre-trials.

I think the laws should be amended to give the hospital automatic full custody of corpses, if they are not claimed with certain prescribed period of time and cases like these will not be needed.

The dress I can overlook. But she just had to add a crucifix.

Last I checked, pornstarz are not ideal role models or mentors, so the fact that they wear a sexualized caricature of the religious habit does not justify what this girl did. No matter how it is portrayed or the conditions and circumstances, caricaturing the Catholic vestments are not to be excused. Lord have mercy on us sinners.
And why do you want her to be a role model or mentor?

Did she said, she want to be your role model or mentor or that of anyone? It is myopic to conclude that, everyone will want to be a mentor to others, ask that individual first and the shocking truth is that, not everyone want to be a role model/mentor.

Many may just want to be left alone to live their lives, the way they see fit, rather than be put under the constant pressure to conform to some society norms, rules and regulations so they can carry the label of role model/mentor.

military uniform or a court dress, Are not in the constitution but they are professional wears for specific group.

Same applies to Clergymen, and other religious professionals. Their dressing separate them from other members of the public.

It's part of theology, even Jewish prists of the dress differently from the rest of the congregation .

I understand the emotions behind your current position, but emotions does not make it a crime or a sin, you still can't give me a single biblical injunction from the Bible that make it a sin, nor a Nigeria law that makes it a crime.]


Sections 109-111 of the Nigeria Criminal Code Part III provides:

109. Any person who, not being a person serving in the armed forces of Nigeria nor a member of the police forces, and with intent that he may be taken to be such a person or member as aforesaid-

Provided that this section shall not apply to the wearing of any uniform or dress in the course of a stage play or in any bona fide public entertainment.

(The above provision was also enacted in the Laws of Lagos State, see Section 79 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State...States routinely enacts and inculcate federal laws into their respective state laws, it is done almost everywhere in the world including Nigeria.)

111. Any person who sells or gives any uniform, or part of a or any dress, badge or mark, as in the last preceding section mentioned, to any person who is not authorised to wear the same, is guilty of an offence and is liable to the penalties prescribed in the said section.

Section 77 of the Criminal Laws of Lagos State:
The above crime will net you three years in prison with no option of a fine.

Section 133 of the Penal Code Provides:
133. Whoever not belonging to a certain class of public officer wears any dress or carries any token resembling any dress or token used by that class of public officer with the intention that it may be believed that he belongs to that class of public officer shall be punished with imprisonment for term which may extend to 6 (six) months or with a fine which may extend to N40.00 (forty Naira) or with both.

No it is not okay for you to wear a military uniform or a court dress, because it is against the laws in Nigeria, to do so; simple and straight.

That goes back to my previous question; show me a law in the Nigeria constitution or in the New Testament Bible that she has violated?

Though, the guy is qualified, but he was part of narrow pool or even the only one in the pool that was looked into for the job, and getting into such pool need insiders who will pass on the vacancy privately or he must been close to the governor, all in all, it still boil to who you know.

Jorussia:
I see the dollar falling to around 170 in next 18months due to increase in FDI and huge government spending. This is the first the country will be adopting a flexible exchange rate,i am optimistic that if well managed, this policy will be of great economic benefit to the nation
Huge government expenditure actually will lead to the fall of Naira and not the opposite as you have summised, that is economy 101.

When government spends, they flood the economy with more Naira notes and pour more of those paper weights into circulation, simple economy of supply and demand states that, when supply is high, value (aka price) goes down.

The reason is simple, Nigeria is not export oriented and those huge government spending will not drive an equal huge demand for Naira and as such the supply will out pace the demand...not too many people want Naira out there, in fact many people e.g. Airliners who have huge stockpiles of Naira because of the prior artificial scarcity will want to swap out their Naira stock piles now that the government seem to be walking back their prior policies, thereby pumping more dead weight Naira notes into circulation.

If an accident happened and I am innocent of it, I will fight back to clear my name.

If I was however guilty, I would apologise and try to make amends.

He cud have continued practising, he would have had a 2nd chance if he even discussed with the Medical Association.

Its all about mindset.
He was driving, very difficult to proof his innocence, at the minimum (i.e. If the charging officers are lenient), he goes down with manslaughter...

Since it is a felony, it becomes a dent on his records and he can kiss his medical license goodbye.

My real beef is, why didn't he settle the case out of court, knowing the impact on his career as a doctor? Most Nigerian family are very understandable, they are not like the average American, who wants an eye for an eye. Seeing that, their family member is dead due to a road accident and the suspect is remorseful, begging, pleading and they fully know that, sending him to prison will not bring the dead back to life or turn their futunes around, they will be willing to sit down, talk and iron out some settlement...how do I know this? Because, if in the same shoes, I will do the same, if my love one passed on, under similar circumstance, I will not want the individual to go to prison, especially when he is not a criminal, tug, etc and it was not an intentional act.

Now my question specifically said 'New Testament' or commandment from Jesus. It will be safe to assume that Jesus teachings were complete and all we need to be Christians and even make heaven on the final day, it is also safe to assume that, if tithing is such a corner stone requirement and duty for a New Testament church, he will not fail to mention it even once.

He even took time to mention our duty and obligations to the ruling government of the day (aka give on to Caesar what belongs to Carsar) and also mentioned our responsibility to pay tax as Christians, but never tithing.
