Kay17:
I don't see the point of awarding an Ebola victim such as Dr Adadevoh a hero status. It might be an award given out of guilt by Nigerians for having such a shitty healthcare system. The truth is, she is just one of the many victims of ebola and she is no hero. There is no thread of heroism in dying from a debilitating disease such as Ebola.

The true heroes are those who left the comfort of their homes, and made it possible for an anti Ebola medical response. Those who had to gear up everyday with the hazmats, attend to the victims at the risk of their own lives when the entire country felt it was a taboo. Those who had to track down the possible contacts about the country. Those who provided the funds to combat the disease. Those who worked tirelessly to find an immediate cure. There were those behind the mass media campaign to educate the masses of the dangers of ebola. These are the real heroes.

Probably because Dr Adadevoh was the only casualty amongst the elite, hence she was celebrated and mismasked as a hero.

Kay17 go back and read the whole story. She and her team provided the first line of response by quarantining the 'patient zero'. Patrick had diplomatic status and was not wearing a tag to show that he was infected. He could have been treated for fever and discharged but Dr. Ameyo recommended an Ebola test and instructed her crew to detain him till the results were out. Which they successfully did inspite of local and international pressure to release him for the ECOWAS function.

Now, losing her life does not make her a hero, but preventing the spread of the virus and alerting the authorities who set up the medical response you mentioned makes her one.

We shouldn't always put everything down to influence. It's no fault of hers that she is a person of means.

[b]Ebola is a hoax - the intention is to terrorise our population into panicking and taking deadly vaccines which America world profit massively by selling to our govt and which would be then used to depopulate us. Those that do not die from the vaccine would become infertile and unable to conceive children.
You have been warned; Take this Ebola vaccine that is surely coming your way soon, at your own peril.
This doctor, (or rather the actor pretending to be this doctor) I can guarantee you she is not dead. In fact her name is a fake name and would not match the name of the Woman whose photo they are telling us is her.
There is no such person as Dr Adadevoh. The lady photographed is a paid actor?
Why don't someone prove me wrong and show me a facebook or twitter presence or even a mere web presence for this so called senior doctor that supposedly headed a department in a large Lagos hospital.
Shut me up by good by showing me a mere web presence for her prior to the Ebola crisis.
Why would Nigeria participate in a hoax against its own people? Because through blackmail using IMF and World Bank loans and our corruptible leadership, Nigeria has virtually surrender its sovereignty to America who can dictate to Nigeria any policy it wants it to implement; Including the deception and terrorism of its own citizens.
The youtube video below using the words of a former CIA agent who wrote the book:" The Economic Hitman" would clarify my point for you.

You can as well say AIDS is a hoax that stands for American Ideology to Discourage Sex and that it was created to boost condom sales, reduce Nigeria's population and sell ARVs.

For ur information, First Consultant Medical Centre exists and the woman u r calling a paid actor was the resident consultant who treated Patrick sawyer.

Drs. Ben Ohiaeri and Ada Igonoh as well as the late Ameyo Adadevoh are heros for standing their grounds and refusing to release the man even when the Liberian Ambassador to Nigeria threatened to stir up diplomatic rows btw the two countries. Yea she lost her life but she saved lots of lives by that singular act.

I wish the amount was more than that. She deserves every award she gets.

Enouwem:
I've confirmed from several sources in NSCDC... The info is true.
RIP sir.

Pls whr did u connfirm from?? It's nowhr in d news

[quote author=Gboliwe post=28529266][/quote]Yea that's what happens in an organised society but I don't think Obama had anything to do with her losing her job. The Republican dude must have been very embarrsassed and decided to fire her. That's wat happens where public opinion counts.

Elizabeth Lauten was the communications director for Republican Congressman Stephen Fincher. She raised eyebrows this past weekend when a Facebook post that she wrote about the First Daughters went viral. Lauten wrote about President Obama's daughters' appearance at his pardoning of the National Thanksgiving Turkey on Wednesday, Nov. 26 thus:

"Dear Sasha and Malia," the disgraced GOP staffer begins. "I get you're both in those awful teen years, but you're a part of the First Family, try showing a little class. At least respect the part you play. Then again your mother and father don't respect their positions very much, or the nation for that matter, so I'm guessing you're coming up a little short in the 'good role model' department. Nevertheless, stretch yourself," Lauten went on. "Rise to the occasion. Act like being in the White House matters to you. Dress like you deserve respect, not a spot at a bar. And certainly don't make faces during televised, public events."

she deleted the post after receiving loads of negative comments. she even issued a public apology online but it was not enough to save her job.
The word out there is that she voluntarily resigned, but you and i know better.

MORAL: No public figure wants a loose cannon as a member of staff.

Cute baby. Meaningful names. Kinda shocked that u r a reasonable person.

@timbros: ur Mia is so fine.

repogirl:
Nothing justifies that beating she gave to the kid, not even poverty or frustration, why not quit?

You took dis right out of my fingers

I was alarmed for a moment. People shud stop using misleading titles. Nothing should happen to Soyinka ryt now. He's one of the few remaining patroits.

Nairaland is profiled on wikipedia. Look it up, the owner's name is there.

punta:
This movie got me bawing at the cinema, to think that I was on a first date

lilmaxfidel:

Now something needs to be done about this and fast too.

Someone just used vivly's pix to campaign for jennimma.

This is so 'below the belt'

Why can't we just play this by the rules and accept the result gracefully. They are all beautiful gals

Jarus:
There is something called campaign and vote soliciting. I'm not aware it is illegal anywhere.

I have not threatened anyone who doesn't vote for her, you know. I'm only persuading. Persuasion is not against any rule I'm aware of.

Yea bro...that's true, but one of the ground rules of this contest is 'no campaigning at this stage'.

Jarus:
Jennimma has my vote.

Most beautiful in my opinion, but may likely come 4th from the trend, as she doesn't have an aggressive campaign base.

I shared this post. All my followers that will come across this post should do this for me by voting Jennimma and let's see if we can push her up.

Suraj, jennimma is beautiful yeah I agree, but why not let ur followers look at all the contestants and decide for themselves.

Pls can someone ban this 53cur3mod wateva guy or at least hide his posts. Dude is constituting a nuisance here.

9jaBloke:

Yday, Annypie asked me to vote vivly but I ted to wait for the question and answer session. The babe no dissapoint me at all.

Congrats to the finalists. still got 4 of mine on.

teeo:

samflexxy:
I have a feeling this thread will continue on till d end of time

like CNN. Well, the big boss can decide to close it afta my post.

The stone pushed by 'E' is not likely to bounce and kill 'b' because, even though it appears lighter than the other stone, the momentum it will gather from rolling down the slope will make it lift the other stone a little, balance and drop it back. My take.

Nice one Horlufemi...though I doubt it will play out dat way. Only 'D' appears to be in real danger

UjSizzle:
Will someone explain why A is staring at a wall?

He cant find his way to d gents, so he's considering peeing on dat wall.

shaboti:
Adamma not adama

U guys got2 read more b4 correcting people. Her name is Adama, she's the daughter of Billionaire owner of Oriental Energy Resources- Dr. Mohammed Indimi, Forbes profiled him to be worth about $600m. She's a lovely girl, dat picture didn't do her justice.

EmmaOgbu:
Nig is so bleeped up dt we couldn't even watch our own match in NTA.

Wither NTA.....We can always watch it on. Nairaland

Truckpusher:
See gobe
These press guys are something else.......they even dubbed it "DIEZANI'S PRAYERS"

In this context,'prayer' is a legal term.
