Crime / Re: The Containers Containing Expired Rice That Customs Seized At The Port - Photos by precious556: 7:47pm On Oct 30, 2019
Expired rice? That terminology is incorrect. Its usually 'Best before' BB. The items eg rice is in its best shape, taste and quality before the said date. Doesn't mean it has expired.

We should stop all this showmanship. Its Best before and not expired items.

People are hungry and yet we are shouting expired rice. Nigerians had been consuming ' 'best before' commodities from time immemorial. Its is very cheap to buy an item that is closer to its 'best before' date and the once that has past the date is almost free.


I wonder how/what has been happening to all items seized in past 2 months.

There are still lot of people in Nigeria going to bed on empty stomach tonight.

God help us.

Health / Re: Meet 12yrs Old Girl Who Gave Birth at ISTH after Being Raped by A Popular Past by precious556: 3:05pm On Oct 12, 2019
Girl child abuse is very common in our society. We all have to stand up against it.

This remained me of a similar case about 12yrs ago and the child (about 13yrs then) have both VVF and RVF. She had 5 unsuccessful repair of VVF. She however lost the baby due to prolonged labour in a TBA located around Oluko in Benin city before being rushed to UBTH for an emergency CS. She attempted suicide about 2 times before being lost on follow up.

Freddonance:
Thanks Doctor for the information.
However, I don't think it is right for u to prescribe medications on social media as u just did. people may abuse such medications & of course I know you are aware of resistance.

Good point

But those medications cannot be bought easily from regular pharmacy(not usually available). Hospitals normally get the supply directly from its source/its agents

Romance / Re: Help A Friend Go Through This. by precious556: 10:43am On Jan 18, 2017
The truth is that she allow her feelings to lead her.
Feelings usually mislead. It is better to be with someone that is willing to sacrify and care for you than someone u have a strong feelings for.

My candid advice: marriage is not overrated. it is the best thing that can happen to a man/woman.
She is getting old so she should be closer to God.
If she is a christian she should be serious in church, prqy fervently and accept men that is ready to be comitted she will definitely develops feelings when get closer with such men with open heart.

Health / Re: Menstrual Cycle by precious556: 7:23am On Dec 27, 2015
It's very normal provided it's regular. Menstrual cycle varies from woman to woman. And also from age to age. It could be 18 days or 35days. So nothing abnormal with your cycle

Education / Re: Please Advice; Degree In Nursing Or Degree In Electrical Engineering by precious556: 9:44pm On Nov 18, 2015
ASHTAROTH:
Hello fellow Nairalanders,

I need your advice on this issue. I am about to take a very important and life altering decision in my life, but I am kind of confused as to what to do. I am very sure, that we have mature people here, and I would definitely be given best of advice. This issue cuts across my entire life, please matured advice are kindly welcomed.

I am a guy in my early 20s (would be clocking 21 by December). I have a Diploma in Engineering, and I currently work with a company in Southwest Nigeria. I graduated as the best student of my Department, and that was in early 2012. I did my internship in one of the big names in Nigeria.

Ever since 2012 that I finished the first phase of my polytechnic education, I was unable to satisfactorily secure admission into the schools and course of my choice. Nonetheless I vowed never to settle for HND. Although My Dad pushed against my own will to apply for HND and I was admitted but I refused and turned the offer down. For the University admission application, it’s either I was given the course I have no interest in or not admitted at all. I applied through direct entry, UTME and several many others. One of the many trials even journeyed me to meet the Vice Chancellor of a State University in a supposed southwestern state. The Vice Chancellor questioned me, accusing me of probably cheating in CBT because I scored the highest (story for another day).

I kept on trying but, this year I made a resolution to have a taste/peep into another field. Although I have passion for engineering, but I fell in love with Medicine after I saw two American Television series (Grey’s Anatomy and Night Shift, please don’t think of me weird). I humbled myself and did another UTME exam. I did excellently well, and my performance in Post UTME was good, though below my set standard. I was pressed to change from Medicine and Surgery to Nursing when the admission officer told me of my slim chance of being admitted for MBBS (Indigeneship stuffs). Fortunately I was admitted for Nursing.

In my quest not to put my eggs in one basket I obtained another DE form. Using the DE application I picked two schools in southwestern states. But, I didn’t stop there; I applied as an unsolicited candidate to another school in one of the Northern States. Fortunately I was admitted for my long desired course in Engineering Field in the Northern University. Though I am still awaiting the two Southwestern Universities and the Northern University resumes in 3 months; I don’t want to give these all away. I want to make the best decision base on good career advice.

I have so prayed and it seems God is giving me a blank cheque to write on. At this point, I can't afford to make the wrong decision.

The issues I have now are:

1. The school that admitted me for Nursing has opened portal for Acceptance fee payment which closes in a week. Of which the tradition is if I couldn’t pay on or before the said deadline; my admission would be invalid. Of course this calls for professional and tactical deliberation and decision. Of which I am to accept the admission now (school resumes presumably January), I would be forced to quit my full time job, thus I won't be able to safe enough for my expenses of even 2 years in college.

2. I am so in love with the Northern University, I love the environ, the distance and of course the solitary of my personality I would enjoy (considering my personality), but we all know the security issue in the north though it’s not rampant in this particular state.

3. The living expenses in Nursing admitted school is on the high side. Looking at it my entire savings would be out in less than two years. Speaking of which my Dad is of no financial support since I disobeyed and turned him down. So I have myself to think about Feeding, Tution Fee, Hostel Fee, Hand outs, Internet data and Transportation. However, my savings would see me through four years of the Northern University.

4. BNsc is a 5-year course and ELectrical Engineering (DE) is a 4-year course, considering the age factor.

5. I am torn between my fantasy and passion, but I want to make the right and best decision. It’s a pity I would be forced to make decision this early despite the unpreparedness of the rest two schools to release DE admission lists.

I am sorry for the long write up. Please advice me from experience; career-wise and future-wise.

Thank you very much.

Ashtaroth 'Owo

I will be very frank with you.
I was in your shoes about 15yrs ago. Try and reach me by sending me pm. Them we discuss it

NB: Now I have Qualifications in engineering, med and Accounting.

Health / Re: How Doctor’s Negligence Made Me Impotent (pictured) by precious556: 4:54pm On Nov 14, 2015
This story is somehow. I don't think he can win this case when taking to the law court.

From the story it is clear this man had urethral stricture (i.e scar on the urine passageway) catheter or urine pipe not removed after 144hrs cannot cause that. It looks like the man tried to remove it himself thereby causing the problem.

But he can claim for negligence on the part that the catheter was left for longer period. And it might not be the said doctor that was responsible for remover of the catheter since he might not be the only doctor in the unit.

Damn... This is terrible, please my people STOP buying electronic devices online, especially in Nigeria. Our e commerce sector ain't that developed.

I wonder what software that "inokia" is running..
Android users run CPU z app on a phone you are buying to get full info including software and hardware..

Be wise...

I make all my electronic devices purchases online. My 3D android tv (45 inches) was online., double door refrigerator, oven, deep fryer etc. Just shop for the Nigerian 2 giant online shops (i wont mention names) my experiences with them has been wonderful. Of course I always pay on delivery.
