We need an early goal.

The Emir of Kano, SLS was also implicated in the arms deal scandal. Can you remember what EFCC said?

Shame on SLS too?? Or shame on who is not a sacred cow??

Against the background that a magic wand was ready in hand, I think the time is far spent.


Against a realistic background that Nigeria is a complex entity requiring very sensitive, and sometimes brutal approaches to issues, sit tight and get ready for the ride.

aresa:
You can start a different thread for that..

Rather a "fake apostle" who preaches a true message than no apostle who preaches nothing at all.



You'll wait a decade for that thread.

aresa:
But fake apostles doesn't practice what they preach so the OP asserted correctly. You agreeing or not is totally irrelevant..

So who are the true apostles, as contrasted to BMB?

You folks seem to get the narrative completely wrong. I would rather be pleased if that was the case. Rather this is an attack on the person of BMB.


To me it doesn't matter if BMB doesn't COMPLETELY follow what he preaches. It's irrelevant.To his credit, he has made an effort to help Nigerians realise that we need to grow the naira by supporting our local industries. I'm not sure many of your political models have made that effort.

If you invest the effort you use in attacking BMB in constructing criticism of facts and not person, it will yield a lot of gains.


BMB is just one of over 170 million Nigerians. His hypocrisy or not is totally irrelevant to our national growth.

She looks decent.
Might just be the looks.

I am confused here right now. So I just gained admission into medical school (mbbs). But the thing is I am also resuming 300level( for a different course entirely). I am skeptical about dropping out. what would you have done if you were in my shoes.?

You're not dropping out.

I'll be in Ibadan this weekend. Anybody that knows a mechanic in Ibadan? I want to inspect car before pickup. I would appreciate, thanks

Are Dasuki et al deliberately refusing to implicate Jonathan in all these mess?

Help Am a young guy in his teenage days Who is already suffering from Hypertension, yesHypertension as odd has it seems I have hit as high as 148 before, all efforts by doctors to bring it down have proved abortive my lowest still is 128 which is far from the average human which is120 please help!!!!!!!!

Usually if hypertension starts in a young person, there's a secondary cause. And usually treating it like primary hypertension doesn't improve the condition significantly.

I think you should focus on what's causing the hypertension rather than on bringing it down. I'm sure you were asked to run a few tests or something.

We need a new social media: one far away from the
reach of the Sarakis and Dino Melayes of this world. One
that takes no prisoners, not answerable to any pay masters and not a cash tool for some individuals. Where discussions would be based on holding every public
officer accountable irrespective of the party such fellow
belongs to. Where emergency activists with the motive of
personal benefits are not suddenly crowned king, praised
and given accolades. Where uploading forged document
of public officers and facts on fraud would be seen as a
heroic act and not the work of ‘an enemy of progress’


Nigerians need to stop electing idiots into power. We
need to orientate ourselves of the need to shun emergency activists like Dino Melaye who just few months ago was gallivanting across media space as the new messiah of democracy, advocating press freedom and freedom of expression only to wake up one day after getting elected to dismantle the very bridge on whose back he rode to prominence.


When we have a new social media where citizens act as
checks to public officers and not worshippers of them,
one Senator will not wake up from the wrong side of his
bed or after a sweaty sexcapade with his wife orconcubine and vomit such nonsensity as ban.

I join in support of a ban on the Nigeria social media
where it is a sin to speak against an Aregbesola but wise to condemn the actions of Wike. I join in support of a ban on the social media where it is a sin to talk about being
robbed in Lagos but comforting to talk about the potholes on Enugu roads.


This social media, where development of the country comes second to partisanship, ethnicity and religious differences should be banned. A social media where
influencers are cashtivists but advocates activism should be banned. A social media where it is suddenly illegal to demand performance from political office holders because they are members of a political party should be scrapped.

If there is a lesson the year 2015 taught me, it is the fact
that Nigerians are the most hypocritical set of individuals
who will support any individual for personal benefits no
matter how questionable such individual is. Today, I
reminisce on the campaign of Dino Melaye and his fellow
Senators at the Nigerian Senate and I remember how some of my friends, associates and compatriots who due to partisan line advocated for their emergence simply because they are members of the All Progressive
Congress (APC).

There is a class war in politics and the sooner we realized it, the better for the prosperity of our country. The public office is not between APC and PDP, North and South, Hausa, Igbo and Yoruba, Women and Men but between just two classes of people; we the people and the rulers.

Today, I wholeheartedly support a ban on this current social media in Nigeria. I support a ban on the Nigeria
social media where mediocrities are praised and
excellence slaughtered. I support a ban on the social
media that advocate civil agitation against failed
government policies of an administration and quickly
jump in defense of same atrocities from a fraternal
fellow.

“Hopefully, someday we will get tired of this attitude of
voting people out and start focusing on voting people in”
– Ayodele Sogunro


One of the identified problems militating against our
development as a country is not just the absence of
qualitative leadership but lack of intelligent electorates.
For a nation far behind its peers in political and economic
development, the desire to see Nigeria develop and take
the vacant throne of leadership in Africa is prevalent in
the international community.


But while this desire engulfs the outside world, same cannot be said of the citizens and residents of the
country who continue to lament over its socio-economic woes of dilapidated infrastructure, epileptic power supply
and decades of failed and buried campaign promises.
Rather than pursue a collective goal of electing public
officers using credibility, track-record and proven
integrity as yardstick we take the usual road of
partisanship and defensiveness.

Back pain is the single most common complain that takes someone to a physician.

The reason why spinal surgeons are the highest paid professionals in the US.

The absolute measure to prevent a sexually transmitted infection is to not have sex.

If you indulge in sex, no matter the degree of protection, you expose yourself to a measure of risk to contacting any sexual infection.

A common example is the Herpes and Human Papilloma Virus group of infections. Recent studies has shown that a condom, even though consistently and correctly used, is not sufficient to prevent an infection. I don't have the time right now to go into details but I'm sure if you google it up, you'd have the explanation.

cheers.

heykims:
Welldone bros, but I have issues with these your topics
1. Factors Influencing the Preference of Medically Qualified Over Non-Medically Qualified Teachers in Nigerian Medical Schools - did u expect non-medically qualified individuals to be employed as lecturers in medical schools in the first place, is it even a valid question?

2) Prevalence of Stress Among Students: A Comparative Study Between Medical Students and Non-Medical Students in Nigeria Universities- Stress isn't a definitive diagnosis in medicine, I believe definitive health conditions like anxiety disorders, depression with standard criteria for diagnosis should be used.
I don't know if u are a doctor or not but I think your topics require more scrutiny.

Thank you sir.
sorry I've had a busy week else I would have replied earlier.

As for the first study, the ikevin has said it all. I had thoughts of restricting the study to the Preclinical population but frankly we still have non-medically qualified teachers with PhDs teaching clinical students in medical schools.

Example of this is in courses like Medical Microbiology, Clinical pharmacology, Chemical Pathology and Community Medicine(esp occupational health, nutrition and dietetics) where a PhD in any of these fields suffice as employment criteria. The implications of these are obvious.

Thanks for ur thoughts on the second topic. Prevalence is not only used to study a disease. According to Wole Alakija in "Community Health, Primary Health Care and Health Management " Chapter 3 p(17) prevalence is the rate which shows the risk of acquiring a disease or characteristic at a given point or within a period. My lecturers strongly insist that prevalence is not restricted to disease but also conditions that affect a population. You were right about stress not being a diagnosis like tb, hiv etc. But like ikevin mentioned parameters supported by previous studies can be used to know what's going on in our population.

My topics and work is vetted and supervised by someone who has had specialist experience in research for a number of years.

I really appreciate ur input and I look forward to more of it as time goes on.

Uno, it's easy for us to stay here on Nairaland and complain of the system and how terrible it is. What I'm trying g to do is to be objective about these issues so they can serve as a reference for anyone that chooses to support the cause of medical education in Nigeria in the interest of medical students.

I really appreciate

Good evening everyone. Please I would need the help of medical students in executing 2 projects. It's a personal work and the results would be sent to appropriate authorities on completion and hopefully seek publishing in reputable journals.

Most importantly, I want to have a representative statistic so it would involve many medical schools.Two each in the North West, North East, North Central, South West, South East and South South.

I want to execute the two projects at once and not one after the other. The topics are:

1) Factors Influencing the Preference of Medically Qualified Over Non-Medically Qualified Teachers in Nigerian Medical Schools

2) Prevalence of Stress Among Students: A Comparative Study Between Medical Students and Non-Medical Students in Nigeria Universities

I would need as much help as I can get with respect to distribution of the questionnaires and getting it back. I would provide a stipend to cover any cost you might incur in the process.

Additionally, your contribution would not go unnoticed as I would reference you as one of the authors. Should in case you have a research career in the future it's a good way to start. I started the same way when I was in 400 level and I was a 3rd author in a article that was published in the African Journal for Food Science. And off record, I guarantee you research mentorship should you need my help.

It's not an emergency. I want to get interested hands so we can get the job done in time. So please quote my ID( u don't have to quote this write up), I'll send you a pm and we can exchange contact and work from there.

I'll be grateful if you help.

I need you.

NeonDee:
Dr Lomaxx i sight thee.
Thou article is top notch.

Millex:
Dr Lomaxx your are one talented doc, a worthy role model, the write up was very insightful, would you mind if I posted it on my blog?

Feel free. Thanks.

Earlier this week, one of my articles was published in the Daily Sun Newspaper and many online blogs. I hope you find the read interesting and insightful.
