DrAkpa:Sense is far from you. If president and governors can produce/born gay and drug addicts, who is Alex? Get this into your skull today, giving birth is nothing. Taking care of them is the most important thing. You want him to born before he died, so that only the wife will raise the kids, isn't it the same thing as kids raised by single parents . Legacy of romantic movies or comedy? Funny people |

Hhh4444:Céline Dion was the 14th and youngest child in her family. Celine Dion grew up in poverty. Born in Charlemagne, Quebec, she was the youngest of 14 children in a devout, music-loving family that struggled to make ends meet. This is not to romanticize poverty and renewed hope but who the hell are you to tell others how to live? You have the crystal ball to see what sperms and eggs are useful and useless? Thank God say man no be God. |

Whoever is dead is gone. What I like is how he handled the matter in private. Too many times, they disturb us on the internet for funds, prayers and what not. May he rest in peace. |

True say death na sure plug for everybody — rich, poor, gym rat, smoker, saint, sinner. Nobody escapes it. But the real issue no be whether we go die… na how we choose to live before that day comes. Good health no guarantee immortality, but bad habits fit guarantee unnecessary suffering. There’s a difference between: dying peacefully at old age after living well… and spending your productive years battling illnesses that could’ve been prevented. Nobody is preaching perfection. Enjoy your life, chop your shawarma, cruise your soft life. But acting like health no matter because “who go die go die” na like saying because every car will eventually spoil, you no need service am. You may still arrive your destination either way — but one journey go smoother pass the other. Live well enough to enjoy the money, cars, houses, and people you’re hustling for. Because what’s the point of building an empire you’re too sick to enjoy? Kalulu44: |

SixSeven:I don't tell people how to live their lives...you can go ahead and give birth to 100kids,I don't care. The person I quoted shouldn't tell people to give birth to maintain legacy cos that's very absurd. The great philosophers, scientists and powerful people we still remember their names today didn't etch their names in history by giving birth to children. |

October1960:As Cococandy said earlier, legacy is hardly about children. It's not merely in the continuance of a lineage Legacy is often incorporeal. It's the customs that begin to govern a people, subtly or overtly... It's an inheritance of whatsoever, that posterity benefits from... It's the totality of privileges that a people enjoy long after the originator/enabler is gone. Some people's legacies will be felt globally Some nationally, regionally, among distinct groups... Some in just their families... At whatever scale, what good continues long after you're gone? . . . Think Abraham, think King David, think Ruth, think Martin Luther King Jnr, think Barack Obama... My own maternal grandmother left a legacy. She was a unifying force in my family. She could get the toughest of relatives to do anything because she was deeply respected and kind and had clean hands. She was a mother to family and beyond. She lived a life in her days that challenged her children, grandchildren & great grandchildren to not be mediocre. Till today, her name grants us favours in certain quarters. **************** The bible says that a good man leaves an inheritance (legacy) to his children but the wealth of the sinner eventually goes to the righteous (Prov 13:22). The inheritance of the righteous is beyond money. But wicked people can ONLY at best have money. And that soon goes away. Some of the people who die and there's a stirring... it's only because they're popular. What positive impact did they really make? Only a matter of time, the world moves on and they're forgotten. ****************** There are countless people who didn't have biological children, but their names are etched in the sands of time --- Mary Slessor, Oprah Winfrey, Isaac Newton... to mention but a few The question that should keep us all awake and on our toes is ---- "What will I be remembered for LONG after I'm gone?" |

Hhh4444:Legacy doesn’t only mean being remembered by history books or the public. For many people, legacy is personal, passing down values, culture, traditions, memories, or family bonds through children. Not everyone wants to be remembered like a philosopher or scientist. Some people see raising a family as their most meaningful contribution, and there is nothing irrational about that. It's also true that many historical figures are remembered for their achievements, but that does not make parenthood meaningless or unrelated to legacy. Legacy can exist on both a societal level and a family level. |

/ 3 main reasons people don't do medical checkup: 1. Finance. 2. Ignorance. 3. They are scared of bad news--the thought/stress over a particular ailment can kill before the illness. / |

Is this the way you guys want to cull or trim the population? By drastically reducing the life expectancy? Was that how China did it? If that's the case once again you evidently lack the political will to do what has to be done |

Fekumzi123:You need brain transplant, so because some governors or families produce gay and drug addicts as children then means Alex would have produced a gay or a drug addict? Did your parents produce one or are you a gay or drug addict? How old are you and who raised you ? |

DrAkpa:I only gave you possiblity because you said it's not possible. Use your head bro and stop gaslighting like a woman. If you like dey born up and down say you dey born legacy, legacy go kill you. |

SixSeven:Only state and fed govt hospitals do surgery on short notice in Nigeria. The rest are scheduled operation which can cost lives... So for me, i stick with state hospitals |
| Re: Alexx Ekubo : A Silent Health Crisis Many Nigerians Ignore by SixSeven: 10:25am On May 16 |
bigpicture001:Good to read this. Unfortunately a lot of Nigerians are ignorant about this. I think the bad news government gets rubs off on the hospitals so people think going to private is 'class'. I told a group of people this same thing you wrote and they rolled their eyes 👀 |
| Re: Alexx Ekubo : A Silent Health Crisis Many Nigerians Ignore by bigpicture001: 10:54am On May 16 |
SixSeven:The FG should make a law that every hospital should have a surgeon associated to it ND the surgeon should be within reach out to his /her associated hospitals in 20mins.... Yes one surgeon can be associated with 5 hospitals within his radius, but this policy will save alot o lives as stabbings and accident victims will b operated upon immediately... It should also b that hospital should have a working well equipped ambulance associated with it and which is within the beck ND call of honor her registered hospitals within 15mins... Yes, one ambulance can be associated with up to 10 hospitals with her radius but let it b available and ready for service... We need to learn to save lives...and also disemninate information fast... Ok, do u know the salt,sugar, fatty, content of public foods should be monitored. If I don't monitor my body, I would have died from kidney issue back in 2016.. I was consuming deadly food as food.just one random health aware guy safe me |

Eriokanmi:You have said it all. It both applies to men and women, however, men should be more careful of women. Not everything is sex, and then think they will get away with it. Life is spiritual. |
