Hemodialysis (or Dialysis for short) is one of the rescue procedures for people who are battling with kidney failure. When the kidneys fail, excess water and waste products accumulate in the body which are life threatening. Pending the time such a person can get a kidney transplant, they need to keep doing dialysis to stay alive.

Averagely, such a person will do three sessions of dialysis every week. At 50k per session, that's 150k a week and 600k a month. It is usually severely draining on any family.

This subsidy from the federal government is highly commendable. Reducing it to 12k per session means a person can have their three sessions per week for 48k...and 188k in a month instead of 600k. This will be a HUGE RELIEF for families that are concerned.

In UCH for example, dialysis (a mechanical process of removing the liquid waste from the blood due to kidney failure) is usually done for patients. Depending on the case, it could be as bad as every 3days. Just 1 dialysis costs 48k-50k. Which means, a patient would pay about 150k to remove waste in a week.

Now, the President has subsidized it to be 12k instead of 50k. And that patient will now budget for 36k in a week instead of 150k.

cool

Great 👍. This one thing alone is magnificent in the sight of the Lord. May the Lord continue to give BAT more wisdom, knowledge & understanding in Jesus name 🙏.

This great news is a life saving news.

If this is true...then I commend him. Health, security and education should be the top priority of every nation.

If education is priority, then why did he fail to employ teachers every year to make primary schools free for every Lagos child when he was governor for eight years?

Why remove subsidy on education for every child to give subsidy on an health issue for a very tiny number of Nigerians huh

Ratio of public to private schools in Lagos State is one to 22 ― Commissioner

The Lagos State government has said the ratio of public to private schools at both primary and secondary school levels in the state is one to 22.

The state’s Commissioner for Education, Mrs Folasade Adefisayo, gave the revelation in her remark at the 2022 edition of the Total School Support Seminar Exhibition (TOSSE) held at Oregun in Ikeja between Thursday and Friday.

It is their usual propaganda to obtain temporary favour until they drop another lamba to take our minds off the worsening poverty, inflation, unemployment that they created since they started shege in 2015 instead of change promised.

Deltafirstson:
Although the pump price of fuel was N197 when President Bola Tinubu took over on May 29, 2023, the product now sells for N617 per litre – less than two months after.

In his inaugural address, Tinubu announced that subsidy was gone, fulfilling a promise that all leading presidential candidates made during the campaign.

However, pump price of fuel hit N537 per litre days after Tinubu ended subsidy.

On Tuesday, the price climbed further to N617, a development that the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation Limited (NNPCL) attributed to “market forces”.

Nigerians have been lamenting the hardship occasioned by fuel price hike. Amid the lamentation, a video where Tinubu campaigned to slash the price of fuel went into circulation.

Checks by Daily Trust affirmed the authenticity of the video uploaded on the YouTube page of Channels Television.

At his campaign rally in Abeokuta, Ogun State capital, on January 25, 2023, Tinubu spoke on a number of issues, but those of fuel scarcity and naira redesign made the headlines.

However, Tinubu who spoke in Yoruba language, also assured the crowd that though people were saying petrol price would hit N200, it would be reviewed downward under him.

“The great Nigerian youths, the great Nigerian students, the confident Nigerian youths. This is a revolution. This election is a revolution. They are plotting, but they will fail. They said fuel price will increase and reach N200 per litre. Go and relax, we will bring it down,” he had said in the 7th minute of the video.

King Wasiu Ayinde Marshall, a Fuji musician who performed at the rally, interrupted the president’s speech with chants as the crowd cheered.

On the campaign podium with the president were Vice-President Kashim Shettima; Pa Bisi Akande, interim National Chairman of the APC; Femi Gbajabiamila, Chief of Staff to the President; Senator Gbenga Daniel; among other bigwigs of the ruling party.

Tinubu went further to say Nigerians would defy the acute fuel scarcity at the time and trek to cast their votes.

“The great Nigerian youths, the great Nigerian students, the confident Nigerian youths. This is a revolution. This election is a revolution. They are plotting, but they will fail. They said fuel price will increase and reach N200/N500 per litre. Go and relax, we will crash the prices,” he had said.
