Foreign Affairs / Re: Ukrainian Troops Destroy Russian Convoy Of Tanks by Oogway: 8:55pm On Feb 27, 2022
I hope people understand that this is the country’s capital were all their military resources is concentrated, there’s no country we’re this would be achieved so easily. All of Ukraine military resources is concentrated here and once this city is conquered the war is over. So it’s just a minor setback. Even during the world wars it took several days to break through Berlin even when Hitler was losing on all grounds
Education / Re: Which Course Has More Job Opportunities After Graduation in Nigeria? by Oogway: 11:49am On Feb 27, 2022
Titaniumental:

I agree with this......plus there are also some medical doctor graduate that are only book smart but not practical savvy...... during my NYSC,i served in the be military barracks in Taraba state then,two medical doctors (corp members as well)were posted to their MRS(medical reception station) out of those two,only one can be called a doctor.

The one that we can actually called a doctor was so good that you will think he has bn in the profession for long, though he said he has been practicing for time(but just decided to do his NYSC very late),and according to him,he his more like an hustling doctor jumping from one private hospital to the other.......but i must say he is very Good, surgical operation is like drinking water for him then.


But you see the other is was fresh medical graduate from the University,she can't even take care of a common...... makes me wonder is this how all medical graduate are?





The way we are drilled in medical school can be compared to no other course in Nigeria and the faculty tries as much as possible to eliminate malpractice but no system is 100% every now and then some bad egg filter through. Also when u say surgical operation you should be specific, they’ll be a lot of procedures that are so skilled the guy won’t be able to do things like kasai surgery, open heart surgery, cataract surgeries etc. there’s a reason for residency and they’re certain skills that only experience can’t give you. You’ve to be taught

NigeriaB:


Where are you seeing the unemployed Doctors? Except the doctor just graduated and waiting for induction. No medical doctor is without job even in this country except he doesn't want to work.



I’m a Medical Doctor (MBBCH) and yes they’re unemployed doctors. Housemanship is easy especially with MDCN new policy, after NYSC do you know how difficult to get into residency or see a good paying job? Compared to other courses the odds are wayyyyyy better but it’s not 100%

A lot of people here would avoid actually answering the questions and saying all sort of irrelevant things that doesn’t answer the question but to be honest here are the top 2 answers
1.) Nursing
2.) Medicine

Yes I do know they’re unemployed doctors out there but the question didn’t say which course has no unemployment rate, it says has the most job opportunities and to be honest Doctors and Nurses top that chat all over the world. The odds of seeing an unemployed doctor is greatly less than other courses when compared in Nigeria

Health / Re: Some Myth About Medications In Nigeria by Oogway: 12:04am On Oct 17, 2021
Dozis:
1. Antibiotics dry up blood when you take them and so it must be taken with blood supplements. This is very wrong, antibiotics do not dry blood, ask your doctor or pharmacist whatever you need to know when taking antibiotics.

2. The white vitamin C works better than the coloured one. The difference between the coloured and white vitamin C are the colourants and sweeteners used to manufacture the latter, ordinarily vitamin C does not have a sweet taste but sweeteners and colourants are incorporated into the active drug during compounding/manufacture to improve the taste and aesthetics, that's all.
The sour or sweet taste is not associated with efficacy.

3. Anti helminthics (worm expellers) should be taken after taking sugar or sugary food.
Some people say this is done to entice the worm to come out and eat the sugary food so that the drugs can act on it. This is one of the most hilarious stuff I've ever heard as a pharmacist, however it is not true, just take your worm expeller as prescribed by your doctor.

4. The more expensive the drug the more effective it is compared to another brand of the same drug. This is not always true, most times you are just buying a name or a brand.

5. The particular brand prescribed by the doctor is always the best, doctors are meant to prescribe generics so that the pharmacist will be at liberty to select the available brand and dispense to the patient, most times the patient may not have enough money to buy the particular brand prescribed and the proper thing to do would be to dispense an affordable but effective brand, there are some cases where some patients would be walking from Pharmacy to Pharmacy looking for a particular brand that was given to them in the hospital while there are several other brands that they can purchase that would do same thing.

6. Roadside drug sellers are more affordable than pharmacies and hospitals. This particular myth should be listed as one of the thousand ways to die in Nigeria, patronising quacks is a sure way to meet your maker quickly. In every pharmacy, there are usually up to 5 brands of the same drug and their prices are always different too, this is to cater for needs of everyone, wether high, medium or low class, when you get into the Pharmacy, tell the pharmacist the amount you have, the chances are high that he has the drug you want that you can afford at that price, apart from getting an affordable and effective medication, you also get a sound drug information. Also make it a habit to go to the hospital when you are not feeling fine, don't wait till it's too late, government hospitals are still cheap in Nigeria, just go on time.

7. Herbal medicines are safer than orthodox medicines. Some people forget that most orthodox drugs are sourced from natural sources, moreover a particular plant may contain thousands or millions of phytochemicals, some medicinal and some harmful.

You can state yours


Well written Dozin except number 5, whenever i prescribe a particular brand that’s because I want the patient to get that particular brand. Eg If I prescribe Rocephin for a patient that’s because I specifically want that patient to take Rocephin and not any other ceftriaxone so that should the treatment not work I’ll look at a possibility of a differential diagnosis. Most of those cheaper ceftriaxone are not as effective and from experience I can bet on what I said

In 2020 alone several of my colleagues (Doctors) in cross River state have been victims of kidnap. How much do they think doctors earn? A senator hardship allowance alone would pay Doctors salary. We don’t discriminate when treating patients why come after us always. A doctor have been kidnapped in almost every department in UCTH yet our crying Governor is doing nothing. US NAVY seal team 6 flew over 8,000km to rescue a kidnapped US citizen yet here in Nigeria, kidnapping is happening just few meters from Soldiers roadblock and nothing stops them

ALLFATHER14:


People genuinely cannot use iOS bro it's a fact. Same way some iOS users cannot use Android. Android offers far more for the buck


No it doesn’t, iPhone has a longer support system, they’re people who use the iPhone 6 and do not have issues, they still got iOS 14 update, how fast is the galaxy S6 in 2020? I still have the phone and it’s extremely laggy. How many Android phones can stand 4yrs of active usage? iPhone gives you an amazing experience, great camera, better social media content, faster internet. It gives u maybe slightly less than Android but in a much greater quality

gerparie:
not only does the phone cost so much, you also need to buy headphones and charger separately!? it's a joke right? like i would need to use websites like this https://www.beste-cheats.de/ to even be able to use this phone at all. The best part is that this phone will probably perform worse than the Google Pixel 4 XL..



The only thing pixel has is the stock Android experience because google who happens to be the owners of Android owns the phone. This is an experience IPhone has enjoyed since its experience. Should I talk about the camera experience? The iPhone 12 would clearly beat the pixel 5 dual camera. The pixel 5 that uses an old generation processor chips, the iPhone 11 is the fastest smartphone and the iPhone 12 is even. 20% faster, should I talk about the social media experience on IOS how videos look better on Snapchat or IG stories, or the overall smooth feeling of iOS? I used an iPhone 11 and trust me it has never lagged or hooked compared to my previous Samsung galaxy S10. IOS has proven over and over that specs on sheets don’t matter as actual performance. An example is the iPhone 11 12 megapixel primary camera that is considered to be the best camera so far of 2020


Finally, the IPhone 12 sold 2million copies in the first 24hrs that orders were opened, ahead of the last year 800k orders for the IPhone 11.


So you dislike for apple won’t affect the company from selling


I’m not a fan of the charging brick removal or the EarPods as their reason isn’t logical but iPhone is a profit making company like any other

The iPhone 11 is the most sold phone of 2020 currently, the iPhone XR is the most sold phone of 2019 while the iPhone 8 and 8 plus is the most sold phone of 2018 followed by IPhone X. The past 5yrs have seen IPhones being the most sold flagship phones. Only someone who uses an S20 ultra brand new would I genuinely believe doesn’t like iPhones, most are hating because they can’t afford it. Please note that afford here means u might be worth 500k but you can’t spare that money comfortably to buy a 500k iPhone

The issue is that SARZ operations are illegal, the stop and search of iphones and laptops or ATM transfers were never backed by law, so you can't use formal processes to stop an informal activity. The only solution is to disarm them, make them stop boys for road without a rifle, and see if i won't be on call at Accident and Emergency clerking their Trauma to the head.

I feel you talk more than you do, working boys don't use iphone 11 to work, they use 6 or 7. And they keep it at home mostly. Even if they use iphones as their primary smartphone they use a smaller phone to work for security sake. The real working boys hardly make noise.

As a Doctor, it amazes me when i read stories of childless women who after several years, give bet to multiple babies, come and thank God without giving credit to the Gynaecologist who made it possible. I'm not saying don't thank God, but atleast acknowledgement of the Doctor who served as a tool for his bid to be carried out. Anyone with good knowledge of gynaecology/obstetrics knows that 90% of this scenerio those pregnancies were assisted, unlike the natural way, in assisted fertilization, more than one egg is utilised to increase the chances of pregnancy and more often than not more than one egg would be fertilized. Congratulations to the couples

The same IOS your can't copy files directly from freely?
The 4gb ram you're boasting about has been proven to be less capable than superior rams on various androids.
All it has at this moment is hype and scarcity caused by being produced by only a single manufacturer.

Don't forget there are various androids out there, so why wouldn't it sell more then S20 ultra?


Like i said over and over again, Apple has proven that specs on sheet do not matter as much as the Processing chip. My iphone 11 pro max 4gig RAM has proven to be better than most phones with 8gig RAMS, The apps are faster to load and they stay open for as long as i let them open. Several reviews and tests by tech enthusiasts has shown the IPhone SE with its 3gig RAM to faster than the 700k Samsung galaxy S20 ultra and this phone is just 170k. The A13 bionic chip in recent iphones optimazes the RAM and battery so you don't need a 12gig RAM to get Amazing results. Same way numerous battery drain test have proven that my 3900 mAH battery of my 11 pro max beats the 5k mAH of the S20 ultra. Samsung has a better display than iPhones, they even make the displays of IPhone x, XS, XS max, and 11 pro series but thats where the advantage stops

all iPhone are flagships except SE series, XR...Apple just has a fast processor that integrate better with the OS. Nothing is special in a company that copies other people's technology,modify it.
Apple are just late comers with modified tech. Example IOS 14.


Yet android copied the notch from apple, they copied removal of the 3.5mm headphone jack, etc. IPhones has shown that specs dont matter as the software and processing chips. IPhone 11 pro max uses a 12megapixel camera compared to 100plus megapixel of most andriods but we all know which phones has the best photos and videos, with a 4gig ram my 11 pro max has never lag compared to my s10 that freezes for no reason. Have u ever tried taking an IG story directly from your andriod? Have you use snapchat on andriod? Iphone gives u atleast 5yrs of software updates, i can go on and on. There's a reason iphones have been the besr sellers for the past 5yrs. The phone is AMAZING and no phone currently beats IPHONE. Samsung S series and Notes can only try. In 2017 the iphone 8 was the most sold phone, in 2018 the iphone XR and 2019 iPhone 11 was 1st and XR was 2nd. In 2020 the iphone SE 2020 has sold more copies than the flagship S20 ultra. And the iphone 12 isnt out yet. Should i talk about the ecosystem? Imessage ? Facetime? Baba leave am

you talk with so much bitterness, Yes no course is a sure ticket to wealth or "comfort" but Medicine is the closest you can ever get to it.
Yes, a doctor may never be rich, but as a doctor compared to every other profession in Nigeria you are least likely to be unemployed. Yes they're unemployed doctors but compared to other graduates the odds are favourable.

Politics / Re: Atiku Promises To End ASUU Strike, Name Cabinet On First Day In Office If... by Oogway: 12:56pm On Feb 04, 2019
1. 1999
After the end of the military era in 1999, Nigerians ushered in democracy and a government that promised to be people oriented. But it didn't take long for Nigerian students to experience a disruption in their academic pursuit. Few months after the Obasanjo-Atiku administration was sworn-in, ASUU embarked on a nationwide strike and it lasted for five months.
2. 2001
In 2001, ASUU declared another strike over the reinstatement of 49 lecturers sacked at the University of Ilorin. The industrial action was aggravated when the then President, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo described Nigerian university lecturers as "a bunch of lazy and ungrateful people" The strike was called off after three months.
3. 2002
Having had an agreement with the Obasanjo-Atiku Federal Government during the previous strike, the union was forced to embark on another industrial action on Sunday, December 29, 2002, after the Obasanjo-Atiku administration failed to implement the agreement. The strike lasted for only two weeks.
4. 2003
In 2003, Nigerian university undergraduates had to stay at home again for six months as ASUU embarked on another industrial action due to the non-implementation of previous agreements by the Obasanjo-Atiku government, which covers poor university funding and disparity in salary and retirement age.
5. 2005
Nigerian university students again experienced another disruption in their academic calendars as universities lecturers went on another industrial action. The lecturers went on strike for two weeks.
6. 2006
In April 2006 academic activities were paralysed in all public universities across the country when ASUU declared a 3-day warning strike. It eventually lasted for one week.
7. 2007
The 2006 industrial action was followed by another on March 26, 2007. The strike lasted for three months. The reasons for the strike was pretty much the same reasons for the previous strike.


All this Occurred during Atiku's 8year stay as Vice President, now suddenly because he's campaigning and needs students' votes he'll end ASUU strike in a day.
Voters should be wise
