Disgusting!

Are they vampires? Yulk!

meobizy:
In this day and age people are still having more than three children? Thank God for my social circle. Two children so one can take care of them financially. A third means a lack of planning or serious arguments before yielding to the request. Anybody who births four and more is mega wealthy or digging their way into poverty.

Really sad situation and I sympathise with the couple. Very painful.

However, the caption is a bit at variance with the actual situation in our hospitals or clinics.



The nurses had done their best, the rest is for the doctors, who, unfortunately were not present.

A nurse is not allowed to prescribe drugs or assist a patient beyond first aid.

As far as I'm concerned, the blame goes to the hospital management for either dearth of doctors or loose management of available doctors.

While it is sad that a dear one is lost, it is also bad to endanger the job of the nurses who are being guided by medical regulations and restrictions.

KingZaddy:
So somebody actually gave birth to these ones, didn't naming ceremony, celebrated, paid school fees to raise them...



I swear if some people know the future of their children they will throw them away before they grow

VIDEO: Pigeons released by Buhari refuse to fly at Armed Forces remembrance


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dsrDlyQNHbs

The doves, otherwise known as white pigeons, released by the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), at the Armed Forces Remembrance Day ceremony, refused to fly despite multiple attempts by the President thereby sparking a debate on social media on Friday.

The President had opened the birdcage at the National Arcade, picked up one of the doves, and thrown it into the air but the bird landed atop the cage and refused to fly.

Buhari, who was eager to let the white pigeons fly, opened the roof of the cage in a bid to send them all out but the birds remained adamant and decided to sit on top of the cage’s roof.

The President, who appeared tired of trying, soon left the birds and returned to his seat. Moments after the President had left, however, some of the birds flew.

The ritual of releasing doves is to commemorate the life of a departed loved one and is common at significant events like funerals or memorials. It also signifies peace.

Studies show that domesticated doves which are used to living in cages are not always keen on flying.

The Vatican stopped the ritual in 2014 when Pope Francis released two birds that would not fly out of the window of the papal apartment and required several attempts to get the birds to fly out over a crowd of spectators.

A similar incident occurred just the year prior at an event where Pope Benedict XVI released doves during a Holocaust remembrance event. The doves were attacked by a gull, with one dove being singled out and injured, according to Wikipedia.

In 2014, the doves refused to fly when former President Goodluck Jonathan freed them. The Spiritual Director of the Adoration Ministry Enugu, Rev Fr. Ejike Mbaka, described the incident at the time as a sign that God had abandoned Jonathan.

The refusal of the birds to fly on Friday, however, sparked thousands of comments on social media.

A former presidential aspirant of the All Progressives Congress, Adamu Garba, said the birds should be eaten if they cannot do what they were trained to do.

“The pigeons are tired and overtime became lazy, they don’t want to fly the spirit of The Nigerian Flag. We should roast them at Suya joint and deploy Crowwe for action,” he said.

Social media personality, Morris Monye, said the Department of State Services would have arrested the pigeons for embarrassing the President if they could.

“I guarantee you… If it was possible, the DSS would arrest the pigeons for such an affront on the President. But really, is there peace, harmony, and security in the land?” he asked.

A former Minister of Education, Oby Ezekwesili, who is a known critique of the President, also tweeted, “Hmmm. Even the pigeons in Nigeria.”
