Politics / Re: Ribadu Lodged $15m Ibori’s Bribe With CBN – Waziri by matrim: 1:30pm On Nov 03, 2009
All this argument sha over simple matter.If ibori truly feels he is being persecuted on trumped up charges and he is innocent he could simply take a lie-detector test shikena.until then the guy shd shut up abt ribadu's vendetta against him and undergo the trial.

No doubt i was in class and my prof asked what are the problems in Nigeria caused by.

This ignorant Igbo girl opened her dirty mouth and was like " man its dem yorubas"(not knowing the teacher lived in Nigeria). Its 5 Nigerians in the class 3 Yorubas 1 edo and the igbo gal. The expression on everyones face was like what the hell is the fool yarning about.
The teacher (black american) said he lived in Nigeria for 15 years from the 80's to early 90's, he lamented "How can a yorubas be the cause of Nigerias woes when there has only be 1 Yoruba presidency OBJ". He further gave accounts where prominent yoruba leaders were assassinated when ever they opposed military regimes. He also added how can any ethnic group cause the problem in Nigeria when everyone is governing their state of origin(it doesnt get any more equal then that). He said imagine if yorubas werent in Nigeria, who would be an actual formidable opposition? because so far many if not all of the people assassinated in Nigeria were of Yoruba ethnicity not to mention the Soyinkas and co, who dont only defend their tribe but the interest of all Nigerians.

While everyone was being quiet in Nigeria( if they didnt run away) its no doubt the leaders of yoruba ethnicity have been at the forefront of opposition in terms of Nigerias interest.

anyway how you see it, if someone is mentions Nigeria in a negative way its a yoruba like Obj(the SAME person flogged over and over again) but if someone talks about Nigeria in a positive way its Fela,Soyinka,Fashola and co,
I cant think of any other tribe who has defended the interest or recognized the work of others besides their own.

No doubt others may leave Nigeria or Africa and make a name for themselves but when the words Africa or Nigeria comes to mind Soyinkas and Felas ARE NEVER LEFT OUT.
I dont have time to blame poblems in the West on people from the North, East or South South, it just doesnt make sense. smh
simply brilliant, i believe you've said it all.
Sad that it takes a foreigner to see this

Religion / Re: Traditional Anglicans Welcome Vatican Announcement With Joy by matrim: 8:49pm On Oct 25, 2009
it seems the major difference and obstacle to unity btw the catholics and anglicans from which all other differences arise viz praying to mortals etc is the catholic theory of papal infallibility.One wondeers how any thinking man can subscribe to that belief.

muhsin:

Just go straight forward and answer this question: who are the real terrorist between Israel who murdered thousands of Palestinian depenseless children and Iran who were nearly annihilated by Iraq?
it's like you don't know the meaning of a terrorist.a terrorist is one who inflicts violence on innocents as the means of making a political point.isreal did not set out to kill palestinian citizens they were after the palestinian govt in gaza who had declared war on isreal and provoked the death of their citizens by using them as human shields.

(1) I don’t have to tie bomb or any sort of explosive around my waist in order to kill my fellow brothers.

(2) I don’t have to kill myself for God, my God should fight for me.

(3) I don’t have to deceive myself skipping launch while I’m fasting.

(4) I will never listen to master who was a profound paedophile (Big brother mohamed)

(5) I don’t have to chop my fellow citizen’s right arm or leg because he or she stole a chicken, rather I will send her to 2 weeks in prison at the highest.

(6) I don’t have to kill anyone who doesn't believe in my doctrine i.e. Atheist. Christians etc (kill the infidels)

(7) I don’t have to grow unnecessary bears before becoming a cleric.

(cool I don’t have to hate at all cost

(9) I don’t have to accept the witchcraft symbol (moon and star) as a sign of true worshipper and the list goes on and on.

Foreign Affairs / Re: Why Only Iran……. But Why Not Israel? by matrim: 11:20am On Oct 14, 2009
the concept of right or wrong does not belong in international relations,rather it's guided by best interests and power so enough of the whining.when the arab nations attacked isreal immediately after their statehood where were all bleeding heart liberals,but it was until isreal started whipping their asses that u started seeing all sorts of stupid resolutions from the oil whipped ctries of europe abeg the simple truth is this ; the arabs have no moral ground and more importantly they have no military ground to take on isreal so they can just keep on blathering till judgement day or if they're feeling foolhardy they can take another shot at them and this time isreal will turn the entire arabia to a refugee camp.

On the contrary Islam means peace, you christian are thought to hate muslim, lying to you all sort of lies. If your people didn't invade Gaza, afghanistan and Iraq killing and raping our people, there wouldn't have been any reciprisal. Your people are bunch of theives, why didn't they invade somalia well because no natural resource there. What a shame to christendom
i wasn't aware that afghanistan had any natural resources apart from rocks or did they just discover oil in Gaza,pls enlighten us and abt islam being retaliatory i believe islam was spread by the sword aggresivly not defensively ask the native egyptians and spaniards.

Its unfortunate that doctors have lost a sense of responsibility to what God has called them to do;and become callous money mongers;tell me how a doctor who is called to save lives will be thinking of monetary gain;instead of treating people that are at the point of death;we have become so callous and wicked.

Its a pity.
i doubt if you know the difference between a calling and a profession.if it were a calling then it would be under the province of a religious body it is a service like anyother-catering, laundry ,financial advisory,and the govt cannot force a private citizen to provide a service.So enough with the dull yarns already.
Politics / Re: Senate Reviews Bill On Gunshot Victims by matrim: 7:08am On Oct 08, 2009
@madmax the issue is not the humanity of doctors or whatever the issue is the illegality of the proposed law.If i want to help accident victims it is my right to do so or not as i prefer.the state cannot compel me to carry out it's function.I think you need distinguish constitutionality from morality and stop talking abt what you don't know

sorry abt the previous posts,apparently i was too harsh but the point remains no body converts from christianity to islam, the only ones who do were never christians, the most that cld happen is that they lose faith in the concept of a good God and not in the gospel of Jesus Christ. i know because i talk from experience.it's like complaining abt Nigeria and then emigrating to somalia

@matrim,you think you can just type anyhow and think you made sense,who are you to inquire about my spiritual life,and why has it eaten you so much to be bitter that am on a straight path to heaven and youre on a wide way to hellfire,my dear if you wanna know, if i was not a good xtian since you opened your wide mouth to say rubbish,i wont last in ISLAM,if my reversion is just by mere fiance, i would keep doubting my believe and i may end up going back to your IDOLATORY"CHRISTIANITY",or you think i was just a waka pass christian that just accepted ISLAM ,i tell you,christianity will not lead you to anywhere but hell fire.DEVILISH TONGUE SPEAKER,YOU CANT FOOL US NO MORE,or you want me to still start telling you ,O, I WAS IN CHOIR,PRAYER WARRIOR,GOSPEL SHARER BEFORE YOU KNOW HOW DEVOTED I WAS BEFORE REVERSION tongue tongue tongue
well like they say water will always find it's level, birds of the same feather i'm sure u can complete it.it seems i made a mistake abt u apostasising because of a man, now i know u must have done it because the violent, confrotative and aggresive nature of islam is more appealing to ur basic nature.
Politics / Re: Senate Reviews Bill On Gunshot Victims by matrim: 11:01pm On Oct 07, 2009
@sagamite you misunderstand me and in doing so show ur similarity with those drafting our laws,quite simply put it is the responsibility of the govt anywhere in the world to provide health to it's citizen (if u don't know this check out ur human rights) and it can't do this by forcing ethical behaviour on individuals thereby abdicating it's own responsibilities and passing them on to me.
This is a poorly thot out and terribly drafted bill and i'm sure who ever sponsored it had no legal input whatsoever in it and if he did he shd sack his legal advisor.

Why are we ignoring the fact that emergency services are really not the business of private hospitals.Has any body been turned away from a government facility for lack of police report. Private hospitals are set up to provide a livelihood for the proprietor. In Nigeria they are taxed like any other business, pay nepa bills and fuel for their generators, staff are paid salaries or do nurses and secrity men work for free. (Edo state in fact wants them to py at least (N300,000) per annum as tax alone). The one part of medicine which governments are actively involved in all over the world is emergency care. If a private clinic has a serious emergency that requires surgery who bears the cost of care. Will the doctor from his pocket pay for anaesthesia, an anaesthetist or a surgeon if he is not one.
Even LUTH had a problem some years back with emergencies that came in used supplies PAID for by other patients and when the patients who paid came for surgery they had to be turned back due to lack of materials to operate, since they had been used maybee overnight and no funds supplied to replace them. the annoying thing was that many refused to pay when they recovered.
The most that can reasonably be done on humanitarian grounds in most Private hospitals is to stabilize the patient and send them to a government hospital. Private clinics owe no obligation to provide free service, that is the job of the government whom you pay your tax to.
People should hold governments resposible (if you pay tax) and stop making doctors the scape goats.

finally someone that reasons before talking,this inability to think is one of the reasons another senator or rep or whatever will come out with a bill to ensure compulsory corporate social responsibility by companies forgetting that this companies pay tax and though it is desirable they are humane it is not their reason for being.pls compel the govt to create an enabling environment not pushing their responsibilities on the private sector it's so bad that the agency responsible for accrediting medical facilities in lagos was toying with the idea of outsourcing their inspection functions.

kech:

Matrim honey, it is not your right anything. Maybe if you are a doctor in Naija, you can do anything you want because no one cares. I cannot speak for other countries but in the US your license will be either be suspended, revoked or you'll go to jail. You cannot play ten-ten with people's lives here. A place where you DARE NOT pass an accident victim on the road if you are a Doctor or nurse. If you don't want to do your job as a medical doctor especially when you are qualified to do so, that's dangerous. Technically, you are a hazard to the field.

can you prove that,that there is a place in this world where it is a crime to pass an accident victim on the road, i rather doubt it,the crime would be in causing direct harm not refusing to render help.

@ sagamite
i'd rather not - Bleep you that is but in case u didn't know medical ethics is a grey area and ur defn of ethics may differ from mine so at the end of the day rather than compelling health practitioners in private practice by means of a bill the smarter and more legal way would be to put in place a proper state-managed health system which would be responsible for the mgt of emergency cases not criminalizing my freedom to act or not to.
