Leaving your marriage is not a recipe for disaster.
No one on this planet has ever been reported to have died as a result of being SINGLE.
Avoid any form of Toxic Relationship, not even the one coming from your spouse or sibling.

By the way, she is not a Medical Doctor...
She's an Optometrist
An optometrist is completely different from an ophthalmologist who happens to be the Medical Doctor.
Optometrist acquired an O.D.
Ophthalmologist acquired MD, M.B.,B.S, or M.B.,B.Ch
Nigerians should learn the right terminologies & observe the distinguishing features especially when paramedics & allied medical staff come close to try deceiving them.

Same goes to Nigerian Optometrists who always want to be addressed as surgeons. Please stop distorting an already distorted nation only to continue blaming Buhari/Tinubu.

Again, people should be proud of their courses of study. After all, no single Medical Doctor has made it to the Aso Villa as President or the table of world's Billionaires meanwhile, others have.

Where on earth did you read that she is a medical doctor?. Is that the only thing you can say about this post. She is an Optometrist and the article identifies her as such. The article did not say she is a medical doctor, above all Optometrists I have met are proud to be identified as such , they don't claim to be medical Drs. In fact those I have met are more richer than Medical Drs. They go on vacation like water. Probably you are a medical Dr and you guys will always bring your unhealthy rivalry in everything even when we are talking about death here. Show sympathy at least for a moment, you will not be less human, pls.
But he way Optometrists, study for 6years to qualify as Doctors of Optometry with OD degree.

Where did you see the writer drag medical doctor with you. Optometrists are proud doctors of Optometry and do not need your Medical doctor title for any thing. They are health care professionals, an integral part of the health system rendering core services in the Ophthalmology departments of our health systems. You are here dragging title while your mates all over the world are growing their expertise in care and research, inventing new procedures to improve health and well-being. This your write-up can only come from a dümb head that is lost in a chosen profession. By the way, Optometrists graduate from school with a DOCTOR OF OPTOMETRY degree whereas you graduate with a Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery, these are what the certificates bear. The USA offers a doctor of Medicine degree (MD) and Nigeria offers MBBS. The Americans has Doctor in their certificates but that of MBBS has none but physicians in Nigeria still answer Doctors, so kindly stop making those references that other climes offer just Bachelors in Optometry and may not be entitled to the use of the title, doctors; you that graduated with a bachelor of Medicine answers doctor. For your information the title "doctor" is not even exclusive to healthcare. Medical doctors are not in any way more important in the health sector than other healthcare professionals. A medical doctor is as important as the pharmacist in the hospital likewise a nurse, laboratory Scientist and the optometrist etc as the case may be.
People should spend their energy in growing their skills and not unnecessary rivalry. Every health officer has a stake in creating a healthy society.
Enough of this doctor title fights especially coming from very new medical graduates still trying to find their bearing in their chosen profession. Optometrist are not your problem in the health sector neither is their doctor title stopping your growth. Many chose to be Optometrist and if given a second chance to make a professional choice, will still chose to be Doctors of Optometry. Enough of all this bickering.

You asked, 'why do men kill their wives?'
It's not only men but women also do it, kindly note.
Also, jealousy and possessiveness should not be your reason for avoiding a potential spouse if you are not thinking of playing a dirty game. I suggest young people should find out if their would-be spouse is peaceful and a lover of peace, honest and trustworthy, and selfless.

I beg to disagree, and I do so on solid life experiential grounds.
Jealousy is a human fault that is often hijacked by demonic forces to destroy homes and wreck havoc in marriages.
No matter how "peaceful and a lover of peace" a person is, once the demon of jealousy wakes up, ANYTHING can happen: from '"fracas" all the way to murder.
In fact, most times, such "peaceful and a lover of peace" people wake up after they have killed their spouses to wonder what went wrong?
You see them crying profusely, helplessly (because jealousy is uncontrollable once activated).
The happiest and most successful (and richest) marriages on earth today are the ones free from such jealousies and possessiveness.
True love has jealousy perfectly under control.
Have you ever wondered how some women get to become CEOs of companies? Ministers? Ambassadors? Directors? ... all manner of top flight professions?
Do you think such women could have gotten to those heights with husbands who are jealous and possessive?
Unless you yourself are like that, these things are self explanatory.
And if you are like that, please seek the help of a behavioral or psychological counselor (or even exorcist sef) before it is too late.
A trick question I promise to ask any man wanting to marry my daughter is this: if you suspect that she is cheating on you, what would you do?"

I didn't see anywhere she was addressed as a Medical Doctor (M.D)... Maybe you can point it out.

In case you are confused... The title Dr is not exclusively reserved for Medical doctors anywhere in this universe.

So, your last paragraph is petty, misguided, and shockingly puerile.

IbnB:


You're missing the point. They found a way to award themselves 'O.D' qualification because they cherish the title of 'Doctor So-and-so' they feel it confers on them. It's a whimsy most Nigerians suffer from. Some of them go to USA and target the 'J.D.' degree of lawyers in that clime, because they wanna come back to Nigeria & be addressed as 'Doctor'; meanwhile, holders of that qualification out there are not addressed as such,it's simply a professional qualification

And it's super-ironical that even here in naija, our medical doctors (whome we address as 'Doctor', actually posseess double Bachelors' in medicine and surgery respectively, as opposed to an M.D.

But now, pharmacists even are swinging for a basic professional degree of Pharm.D as opposed to B.Sc Pharm, just so they can be addressed as 'Doctor', just like these optometrists. No Nigerian feels safe in their own skin without a bombastic-sounding professional title anymore. These things wont stop until the focuse is more on actual value-added as opposed to how successful one is at gaming the system😄

Sir I'm a bit confused here, there is no where in the world Veterinarians are not called not called Drs even in Nigeria. Since 1963 when veterinary medicine was founded in Nigeria, veterinarians have been called Drs, same with other African countries. We veterinarians don't problem with the title because unlike others except MBBS/Dentistry, our title isn't just a professional title, it describes what we do. But for optometry, some countries don't allow the Dr title especially UK, I guess that's where there is confusion.

What do you think Optometrist do?

Enugupikin:

I'm not in the health sector but what that guy wrote is true. An Optometrist is a not a medical doctor.

Our Nigerian doctors are doing wonders abroad stop the jealousy.

Anywhere in the world you want to practice and you didn't train there you must be screened to obtain their licence, like going from china or UK or USA. You must be daft not to know this

Again stop the jealousy for those guys

I have never seen an optometrist do the job of a medical doctor or where in the post was she addressed as a medical doctor. Both professions have their job specifications and areas of specialties. Just as the medical doctor consults, examines, diagnose his patients of their health conditions, manages or refers his patients to other specialist, so does an Optometrist however being restricted to eye care.
It's ridiculous for medical doctors to feel they are better than other health care professionals in the 21st century.
Rather than focusing on being better at their practice, it's a shame many would choose to immerse themselves into rilvary with other health care professionals. This is unproductive and detrimental to the harmony needed in the health care industry .

ChngedChnges:

You should be ashamed of yourself. If her certificates reads OD which i found out to be Doctor of Optometry what are you now ranting about? If people with PhD bear the title and you don't complain what more of someone with it stated in his cert?
I think this is why the Nigerian healthcare is in shambles. Leaving CPDs and opportunities to meet up to the trending global standard in healthcare and be fighting over titles
I think this is one of the reasons our Nigerian Doctors are screened and rescreened again before allowing to practice in other countries.
The average blackman is striving for just 2 letter abbreviations while his value and competence keeps decreasing. Who do us this thing for God's sake

Once again we are deeply sorry for the loss of a human being in that tragic manner.

But then again,

All what the person did I believe was to enlighten people on the right terminologies, to educate people.

The people on the street may not be able to differentiate, so long as they hear the word doctor.

That's why this is necessary.

Its just not so appropriate using the demise of a person as an avenue.

PhD is Doctor of Philosophy, known to be the highest educational qualification especially when one is in the academia as lecturers.

This is different from M.D medical doctor.

Only those who train or study medicine and surgery (MBBS - Bachelor of medicine, Bachelor of Surgery), and Dental Science (BDS - Bachelor Dental Science) and those with degree in Vetiniary medicine in clinical settings are regarded as doctors.

An Opthalmologist is, a medical doctor who has already received his basic training as a medical doctor, and goes for a further study in eye related diseases and acquires the skills to perform surgery in the human eyes and treat other eye related diseases.
He is regarded as the highest in the area of eye problems. He is the one to be sought for when eye diseases arises, of course after one must have contacted his family physician (GOPD - General doctor), who then assesses the individual and refers the person to the Opthalmologist if need be.


A lawer who studies law and attends law school is regarded as Barrister, why are those who study Criminology not addressed as such? yet they also work in the court?

An Architect who study Architecture and does his masters before even graduating from the university are regarded as Architect. Why are those who study Quautity survey, Building and all other related courses not regarded as Architect?, despite having interrelated courses whils in their training.

So I believe the same goes with the aforementioned.


These terminologies are important to differentiate so people don't get confused and seek help when they need to and it be rendered appropriately.


O.D means Bachelor degree in Optometry.
The Doctor of Optometry they bear as I know isn't regarded as such.


An Optician is techinal skill worker who is equipped with the know how of making lens and their frames, in other words (eye glasses).

And of course their are nurses that are focused only in eye condition, though still have thier basic training in general nursing care.


As for the screening and all for Medical doctors from Nigeria to any other country, that's is a global practice.


Nigerians who study medicine out side the country who return home to practice and get licenses, must under take the Nigerian medical exams here.
And same goes to those who are relocating from Nigeria to other countries.

The issue also of this isn't the case abroad, isn't completely true. The same is issue of battling for so much relevance is every where.

Please, let's all be guided.

seunH:

of course vision measurement is a core aspect in eye care and it is a strength in optometry practice. Vision measurement is just one aspect when attending to a pt. We do not hear pts say we just came to measure our vision. They come with issues as corcerning their eye health and we as Optometrists have to unravel the cause and profer treatment or manage the pt and of course referral to other specialists when necessary just as d med dr's would refer to other specialists when required.
I think you should try schedule an appointment in an Optometric practice so you are better informed on what they do

oh superb on how an OD can mean bachelor of Optometry .
If 100 persons come to the family physician with eye issues, how many can the family physician address their concens without having to refer to the Ophthalogists then?
The role of the family physician in medicine is what the Optometrist fills in eye care.
In accessing eye care, you are to go through the optometrist. These are highly trained professionals aswell and they can be very well held accountable for wrong management of a pt.
They know when to refer to the Ophthalmologist or other specialists.
I wonder why having an eye issue, you ll have to see a family physician that would most likely refer you out to a surgeon that has quite an overwhelming number of surgeries to perform .
These shallow mindedness is one of the clogs in the wheel of our health care system.
Let the Ophthalogists devote more time to their surgeries and other complex cases upon referrals

Confirmed story. This is my area. The Man is a Monster. He has been beating his wife until he finally kills her this time around. The Wife refused to vacate the Marriage because her Family and Friends did not support the Marriage from the beginning. She died because of what people would say. Is it not reasonable to choose shame for death? No matter what happens your Family will still receive you. Too bad! According to my Pastor, it is better to be alive and not married than to be killed in marriage.

Sorry about the dead.
