oyinmama: It isn't a new occurrence. Back in 2003, I remember using a phone torch to carry on with a Caesarian section at Adeoyo Hospital in Ibadan. PHCN had done its worst during surgery, main generator and back-up had both broken down. We couldn't stop, so we made do with the torch of those small Nokia phones back then to finish. There were also instances when I had to set up intravenous fluid infusion for babies via the scalp using lantern light held up by colleagues.......

This happens in the US and UK too so kini big deal?

These robbers are humane for not killing anyone. More robbers should learn from them.

kolidave: Wetin concern Nigerians with the recording or d information of the black box of d crashed plane? Sumtimes d illiteracy and d stupidity of most Nigerians amazes me

Exactly. What business have Nigerians got with a plane chartered by a private family which unfortunately crashed? Let the Agagu family fight their own battle if there is one.

This brings back memories of when my mum will argue/fight seriously with my dad for wearing his suit to the ram market to buy the christmas goat. My mum always believed he had paid double the actual going price because of his suit. My dad being a peace loving person finally gave in and kept aside a very old tattered native attire which he always wore whenever he went to the ram market.

I cant remember if this made any difference to the price he paid.

Can Obama speak Kenyanese?

demelza: Which kin name be Brentley?

He started his career at Brent-ford and blew up when he moved to Burn-ley.

greatgod2012: Devaluation of our currency is one of the major steps to take to regain the value of our naira.

You sef wan sound intelligent abi? Your statement is an oxymoron

Next IG: I think you should be the one to be ashamed of yourself. Is becoming Pastor a licence to be or remain poor? What is your evidence that the Pastor is milking his congregation? For your information, this same Pastor does not need the church money for any of his needs. The three private Jets were bought by his own money and since then they've been maintained from his own pocket not the church's. Is it a crime to be blessed by God?

3 jets bought with his own money you say. Can you tell me the name of one of his businesses that turned over at least N1 billion naira in the last 5 years. When I say business, I mean a real business and not business of those poorly printed books and audio CDs they sell in his church.

Annie2gud: Bizzare....imagine.what if they were wrongly accused?honestly there is no place like home.rip.in this case ....all foreigners must leave our domain.

How dumb! Were the ALUU 4 not in their homeland?

saxywale: That's exluding the prescription bills. You go fear fear.

Prescription is a flat rate of like £7.50 regardless of the drug you are given....Now thats cheap!!!!

Dis Guy: I think students should be exempted from the proposal

I think visitors should be made to buy health insurance though just like other European countries

I came here as a student and was allowed to use the NHS. If I was asked to pay a paltry £200 for medical insurance to use the NHS, I wouldnt have thought twice about it. Students pay thousands of pounds for fees, accomodation and living expenses per year. £200 as insurance for your well being should be a non-issue

Symphony007: what rubbish...if not for immigrants who will do some of the odd jobs in the u.k? Who will work over 5 jobs with meager pay. These people play a vital role in the running of the country. Which odinary british citizen will work in a hot fast food kitchen for hours and get a few quids as salary? They will revolt and labour unions will swoop in. But these immigrants do all those odd jobs for companies will in turn pay fat taxes to the government.

Apart from this, cameron's government has gone the extra mile to harass immigrants, both legal and illegal and it is clearly because he is scared of UKIP, and the prospects of him being a one term p.m!

You are chatting rubbish. I am an immigrant (legal). I have had an ambulance come out to me about 4 times and had 2 children on the NHS. All completely free. I pay my taxes and I am entitled to it. My sister came over, had her children here and paid full price because she wasnt entitled to a free service. It costs money to run the NHS and if you havent contributed into it you have no righy to draw from it. Hold your leaders accountable. They all run here to treat minor ailments with your money, Tinunbu, PEJ, Sullivan Chime, Yar Adua, Suntai, Atiku to name a few.

Bear in mind, the NHS will take care of anybody that presents himself at a hospital, illegal or not. They will only try to recover costs after you've been discharged. I believe the current successful recovery rate is under 5%. Now compare this with Nigeria where an accident victim fast losing blood MUST pay a registration fee and deposit before being attended to.

Symphony007: You know that anti-immigrant feeling is at boiling point in britain when a conservative/LIBERAL DEMOCRATS coalition can make such a move, and even LABOUR can't speak against it.

What is anti-immigrant about asking people not entitled to a service to pay for it? I know this is something foreign to Nigerians as you lot are used to not paying for services used e.g electricity, water,

carujmonella: No matter how strict they make their laws, peeps will NEVER be discouraged from migrating to UK, illegally or legally


When there's a will, there's way!!

Most definitely. Wasnt it just last week a boat carrying 300 people capsized on the coast of Lampedusa, Italy.

People would rather die trying, than continue to exist in corrupt and impoverished nations.

It must have happened a few times but the one I'll never forget was when I wore a a rainbow coloured Next dress shirt to a house party and on stepping into the room I came face to face with my twin brother in the fashion world. I could have died! Jesux! I will rather get hit by a high speed train than have that happen to me again.

Another one I hate is getting to a party and seeing that all my mates and I have a man riding a horse and playing polo embroided on our shirts. I now only wear my Ralph shirts to work now and I havent bought a new one for years.

These pigs only act tough during training exercises and in the movies. They failed to box in the car the first time she was cornered and instead came running to the car on foot like rams to the slughter. The usual shoot first ask questions later modus operandi. They failed in this operation woefully and are so damn trigger happy.

Its just so painful that its a beautiful nubian empress that was killed. RIP Miriam Carey

Still not loving police and As I always say FcU.K tha Police, including the New York Prick$ and D1ck$ (NYPD) and all!

Why u no put Diaby name for there abi im no be woman beans?

Ramsey didnt score #WengerOut

Absolute rubbish. Arsenal have Szczesny, Fabianski and Viviano who they brought in on loan with a view to a permanent move. Why would they sign a goal keeper who has played just 8 games in a proper European league?

Maybe Sunderland sha.

It is not wrong/illegal/a sin but when going to a place of worship it is better to dress modestly. It wouldnt be illegal/a sin for a well endowed pastor to wear tight fitting lycra trousers which show all his wetin call in all its glory but it wont be modest. Looking at your pic, if you came into the church I am in with trousers on, that will be the end of the service for me because my mind will wander and I'll start to imagine the unspeakable.

I understand why muslims ask their women to pray at the back. Imagine a woman like Nicki Minaj doing asalatu in front of you during Friday prayers.....ojigbijigbijigbi!

I am not imperessed. The only reason his story is being blown out of proportion is because he saved white people. At least he had a very good reason to go to the mall; to save his blood brother. The real heroes are the poor policemen and soldiers who, having the least connection (social or financial) to the mostly affluent people in the mall, went in and risked their lives to save others.

If only the other ordinary citizens were allowed to own their own guns too, they would have fought back. Why do only the privileged have access/licence to own guns. I know a guy that is the son of a former SSS deputy director who owns a licensed handgun whilst having never been in the military, police or any other paramilitary force.

Topic is misleading. The prosecutor did not retract any claim. It was an debate over who said what with the prosecutor maintaining that she never issued any statement about Ibori owning 30% of OANDO. This is not a retraction.
