The rate of unemployment in the country is worrisome. We sincerely hope the modalities for the recruitment, training, and engagement of 500,000 teachers have been well thought-out.

The most difficult and a non-achievable task on earth is PEACE.

Can Nigerian women fold their legs in that manner?

Wrong advise!

Whoever heeds the above suggestion does so at his/her own peril.
Not every information you see on the web is actually true.....

Really? Where do Doctors get their information and journals from?

At Mayo Clinic, over 3300 physicians, scientists and researchers share their expertise to empower you

http://www.mayorclinic.org

^ ^ That's an example of a world class online clinic. Who are they trying to empower?

Meanwhile, no one has recommended self-medication (or self treatment), as a matter of fact Mayo Clinic has never prescribed drugs to anyone.

However, for every symptoms or strange feeling, I make use of the Internet to have an idea of possible diagnosis/treatment before proceeding to a Lab/Clinic for proper check.

Just last week, I had a strange pain in my stomach. Through a search engine, I got an idea of likely diagnosis (Typhoid, Ulcer, and other gastrointestinal issues etc..). It didn't end there, I proceeded to a diagnostic centre, and I personally requested for a Widal Test, and the result showed evidences of Typhoid. Worthy of note is that the pain disappeared at the 2nd day of treatment.

You can never go wrong with research. It is not about displacing the role of a qualified Doctor (a Pharmacist/Pathologist attended to me by the way), it is about empowering oneself with information.

If it is indeed right to condemn online information, why do we have a 'health' section on Nairaland, and why is OP seeking assistance online?

More organizations need to join the fight against human rights abuses.
