About 40 percent of medical doctors in Nigeria are are unemployed, Chairman, Federal Capital Territory branch of the Nigeria Medical Association, Ekpe Phillips, has said. Ekpe, a gynaecologist at the Nyanyan General Hospital said this in Abuja yesterday at a roundtable discussion on accountability for maternal health in Nigeria organized by the Women Advocates Research and Documentation Centre, in Partnership with the National Human Rights Commission.

He said: “Many of them are employed by private hospitals that are not even paying them enough because of the economy. We don’t have enough doctors and the ones we have are not being utilized.

“The manpower issue is that government is not engaging the needed health personnel. We need to make the place conducive. As you build the primary healthcare centres, make accommodation available, electricity and make life conducive for the workers.” Executive Director, WARDC, Abiola Afolabi, said, maternal mortality could be successfully reduced “if we put women’s rights at the centre of the equation.”

My brother you don't need to get your Visa before helping others. No one has monopoly of knowledge.
You can still change the life of someone with the little you think you know.

Baba I never said I no dey help b4 getting ooo

I only said I will be left with two things which is a normal thing.

Abeg try understand me

Kai!

I wish my visa was approved, my thinking will be how to give back to this thread and also move on in life....

Now I'm left with no choice than to watch grown men and women argue over trivial issues... kai


But the truth be told I know the mod is also viewing this thread and any sight of unnecessary post and information will surely be erased by the mods.
So, I see no need to argue on this issue becus juswise is very active and can tell when a thread is bin derailed..

Kai!..........."sorry I can't approve your"
You should know the rest

leospaceman:

VO: how many admits?
Me: all except brown university

Vo: so why this one? Why Clark university?
Me: well apart from the scholarship I was offered I was particularly interested in methods and skills courses I’d be taking

VO: name one?
Me: well I’d be taking the advanced rastar geographic information systems course where I’d be taught using the idrisi software under the terrset series developed by Clark’s lab in clarkuniversity in 1987, it was recently remodeled in 2015 and I’d be taught how to use this software to develop.. (vo cuts in again )

VO: please hold on (gets on the phone and a superior appears and they turn off the microphone so I can’t really hear what they are saying and looking at the screen)
Turns back after a few minutes, with the superior still standing and both looking at me

VO: how did he become a citizen? When did he come to America? How long has he been in the states?
Me: I don’t know, he’s been there a long time before I was born

Vo: okay.. (Nods her head) excuse me please ( stands up and turns off the mic again and goes to the back and reappears a few seconds later)

Vo: what was your GRE score?
Me: verbal: 152, quant:150, and AWA: 4.0

Vo: that’s 302
Me: yes

All this while she was just looking at her screen and/or typing

Me:no

VO: any kids?
Me: none

Vo: earlier on, you said you applied to university of Maryland, they have a stronger programme than Clark’s? So why not university of Maryland?

Me: No, not necessarily,also I will be doing a collaborative research at Clark university with the university of Maryland on 3 sites in Massachusetts, Virginia, and georgia state.

Vo: looks at me with one raised, eye brow through her glasses and looks back at her system and continues to type

Me: yes

Vo: so who will be paying the remaining deficit of $35k
Me: my father ( tells his name) he has worked for —-company for —- years (at this point she was already nodding her head Cos she was familiar with the name already)

Vo: okay I will be approving your visa
Collect your passport in 3 days

Me: thanks

Lagos?

Delay is not denial and it is certainly not the end of the world. If you want to kill yourself, that's totally fine. Living is a choice we make every day despite everything life throws at us.
People fall, people rise, people laugh, people cry. Life is not a fairy tale, there are no genies granting our wishes or fairy godmothers waving wands to please us.
I got my visa at the first attempt and so what? My friends got theirs at 2nd, 3rd and 6th, and so what? We all succeeded eventually and that's all that matters. We won! The time frame is irrelevant, the triumph is everything.
Ultimately, I bind and cast every negative vibe, I purify and sanctify this thread with as much positivity as the universe holds.
May the force be with us!

Good one with those words and I appreciate.
But what can pacify me now is my Alcohol!
