Just as we remember Neil Armstrong as the first man on the moon; Einstein for his theory of relativity, Alexander Fleming for discovering penicillin, and Rashidi Yekini for being the first Nigerian to score in the World cup, history will remember Rick Slayman as being the first man to receive a xenotransplantation of a pig's kidney to a human recipient. His legacy will live on and one day when scientists finally perfect the act of transplanting pig kidneys into humans, he will have hospitals and universities named after him. A scientist was able to isolate insulin from pigs back in the early 1900s and today, insulin is mass produced all over the world and used to treat diabetes. RIP

Terrible. What a useless and pathetic way to die.

How can we say we are a nation if a citizen can be deported to a different part of the country? Makes no sense to me. The Lagos state government should hold a press conference explaining why and how this happened. The Federal government should also investigate this matter and let us know if we are a country with 36 states or 36 different countries.

This guy is a simp looking for social media fame at all means. Ever since he bleached his skin, I've stopped taking his opinions seriously. When I'm at the gym, no amount of inappropriate dressing will make me horn.y or distracted from my workout. It's the same way I can have professional relationships with female coworkers. The horn.y part of your brain is supposed to turn off when u are in certain places but some guys just have no restraint. U can look and admire but still remain focused.

You don't need to curse anyone to make a point. Don't be stupid.
You are entitled to your opinion likewise any other Nigerian.

No Nigerian will wish for the country to get worse, anyone who says Nigeria will never get better isn't a Nigerian and God should punish that person.

God punish anyone who says Nigeria will never get better. We will one day be the envy of the world. God bless Sanwo Olu and God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Me and my household will never leave Nigeria to become 3rd class immigrants in the White man's land. I will advice anyone thinking about running abroad to stay put in Nigeria. Don't waste millions of naira just to go overseas to become a support worker or whatever its called. Moreover, a Worldwar is brewing in the shadows and all these foreign countries have all sworn alliance to defend each other when war breaks out, what will you do then? Run back to the same Nigeria u abandoned? It may be too late. So many people lack wisdom and it's evident in the huge number of people willing to sell all they've got just to go abroad.

Imagine boldly opening a school to train scammers and fraudsters, is that how normalized yahoo has become? Even named it Cybercrime training center without any fear of police.

Good evening bro. I got notified on nairaland that you sent me private message via mail. Please be informed that I don't have access to the mail again. You can quote me on a dead thread so that I can respond to your questions. Thank you

My thread is not dead, please find another thread

That's the beauty of freedom. You have a right to protest just as the employer has a right to terminate your employment.

I will eat eba with vegetable soup tonight

Ashawo is not Flavour song. It is owned by Rex Lawson- a highlife star in the 1960s.

Wow!! I never knew that. These are the kind of historic nuggets we need on this platform. Thank you for enlightening me.

That Flavor's song Ashawo should've won Grammy award. It is an instant classic enjoyed all over the world even by people who don't understand the lyrics. Nigerian music has taken over. I pity any foreign artiste who doesn't collab with a Nigerian musician, they will go extinct sooner or later.

Na so. His net worth is $10 million and he wants us to believe he can afford a jet of $75 million and this is supposed to be his 3rd private jet. He will never come out and say he leases the jets like 95% of celebrities do. They pay monthly rent fee to use the plane, none of them own the jets outright except for the filthy rich types like Jay Z, Oprah and Co.

The West likes to preach about democracy and freedom of this and that but this is a prime example of them being hypocrits. Do as I say not do as I do. The UK is supposed to be the model democratic nation the whole world should look up to, but they are acting like communists. If Nigerians know what's best for them, they will evacuate the UK and other foreign countries before it's too late. A major war is brewing in the shadows and you people are flocking abroad.

Another noisemaker on the world stage. Always making pointless threats just like North Korea as if anyone is scared of them. Do anyhow and Israel will wipe them off the face of the earth.

April fools joke. How are people falling for this?

Good for him, they can have threesomes every night

I tried my best to read the entire news article but I'm sorry the author needs to learn how to write concisely with less obfuscation. The Nigerian nurse in question should see this suspension as a blessing in disguise. Abroad is not meant for Africans and the White man will quickly remind you for any little mistakes or transgressions.

It seems like she was caught signing off medications as given when she didn't give them. She was investigated and fired as a result but then she applied for other jobs without disclosing that she had been previously investigated and fired. In otherwords, she lied in her job application which may be grounds for termination in the UK.

Fine, but how many Whites kill patients by overdosing or giving them the wrong medications without any repercussions? They probably sweep it under the table and erase any papertrail that shows negligence but when an African lies about giving common antibiotics, they want to burn her on the stake like a witch.

Nigerians abroad aren't you tired of being 3rd class citizens in the White man's land? You all go there to do one of the following occupations: support worker/nurse assistant ( glorified nyash cleaners), security guard, taxi drivers and nurse. After all the hard labor, insults and abuse, the government will still deduct federal, state, city, Medicare, medicaid,
and disability taxes from it. In essence you slave away and then the government will deduct 40% from your check for taxes. On top of that, you still have to pay very high rent and sales tax on anything you buy. What kind of life is that?

These countries have no natural resources so they depend on human resources which is what you are. You are meant to slave away and pay crazy taxes so they can fund their budget. Nigeria doesn't tax her citizens this much because we are blessed with natural resources unlike UK and most of these European countries.

Imagine a nurse of 20yrs is still saying she's "financially desperate" and that's why she didn't disclose the prior investigation to her new employer. After 20yrs shouldn't she be financially buoyant and thinking of a lofty retirement? Instead she still needs to work just to make ends meet and you people call that life?

It's not late for Nigerians living abroad to return home. You can venture into more lucrative businesses here without cleaning poop. Nobody will call you a Niggger either and your life span will be longer.

These people should be calming down with all these extra things. Putting unnecessary pressure on future brides and grooms. Thank God I don't have to worry about this again.

It looks like it's AI generated, but I can confirm that this picture is real and it was taken in 2018.

I went for a job interview once and the interviewer gave me homework to do before they will let me know if I will be considered for the job. They wanted me to make a presentation that would've taken at least week to complete. Then I would present in front of them, if they like it, I move on to another level of interviews with the higher-ups.

They won't even tell me what the starting salary would be. But I should waste my time preparing a presentation without any assurance of gaining employment on top of maybe 30k a month job (2015). That was the day I swore never to work for anyone and I've been self employed ever since.

Hustle and make good money; no woman will care about your physical attributes.

Very easy case. The deceased family members should sue the school for millions. I'm not a lawyer but a very good lawyer would ask the school to provide daily records showing how much food the lion is being fed daily and then compare it to the recommended daily nutritional requirements of a fully grown lion both in the wild and in captivity. If it turns out that the lion is underfed and malnourished, this will be a slam dunk case. The lawyer can also bring up a wrongful death and death by gross negligence charge against the school for not having the proper safety measures in place for this man to carry out his work safely.

Condolences to the family members but if they play this right, It could be a windfall upwards of N800 Million.

Is nairaland going bankrupt? These sponsored posts are getting too much.

I have 300k followers on Twitter, and 180k on insta. I charge about N350k per post. More if it's a bigger brand.

If you don't already have a gun or two, you are not serious about living. It's easy to get a permit, do it and protect yourself and family.

Ivory Coast 4 - 1 Congo

Me and my household will make it in Nigeria. I will not be a modern slave to the White man.

Someone once told me, when a man loves a woman, he acts like a child towards her. And when a woman loves a man, she acts like a mother towards him. But there's probably a select few who show affection through violence and constant arguments, whatever rocks your boat.

These pictures actually look masculine because their trousers are loose. But I've seen guys wearing shorts crossing their well lubricated legs. I've also seen guys wearing tight jeans or trousers crossing their legs like this and it really bothers me. I don't think it's gay, rather I feel like guys who cross their legs are conceited and arrogant. It really irks me 😡
