kemmylove101:This is really surprising... Ireland is regarded as one of the top 5 prosperous nations in the world by the legatun institute.... It's even rated the 3rd richest country in Europe... What exactly is the problem.... Is it hostile to foreign nationals or general lack of opportunity.... |

I think pro China nairalanders are the hypocrites here.... China has been restricting every American tech giant from doing business in mainland China.... China banned Google, netflix, Twitter, youtube, whatsapp, Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat for whatever reasons... They even banned wikipedia and quora.... Restricted business for Amazon and Microsoft... China allowed android on smartphones but banned Google playstore, thus Google wasn't making money from it's own very product despite its widespread use in china.... The moment China develops it's own processors/chips, that will be end of Qualcomm and Intels' market share in china.... The only reason China allowed Apple it's market access is simply because 99 percent of Apple devices are manufactured in China.... If Apple was manufactured elsewhere, china would have shut their market against it... This measure of blocking foreign tech companies allowed for the emergence of Chinese giant tech companies like baidu, tencent, jd.com and wechat.... And the pro China social media crew hailed it as a smart move.... So I really don't understand what the noise is all about if USA decides to block/reduce huwaei market share so as to allow usa companies catch up with 5G technology.... USA learnt the bad practice from China.... USA is playing the game of global trade with Chinese characteristics.... Isn't that what China wants, so why the noise.... |
A nurse who offered a bible to a cancer patient and encouraged him to sing The Lord is My Shepherd was fairly dismissed, a court has ruled. Sarah Kuteh was given the sack from her job at Darent Valley Hospital in Dartford, Kent, in 2016 for repeatedly talking to patients about her faith and handing out a bible, in breach of Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) rules. A ruling, published last week by the Court of Appeal, stated that on June 3 2016 a patient at the hospital had complained about Ms Kuteh's conduct. The court heard how the patient likened the incident to a 'Monty Python skit', which he said was 'very bizarre' - in which she encouraged him to sing along with Psalm 23 with her. The ruling, which upheld a decision that she was fairly dismissed by the Dartford and Gravesham NHS Trust, stated: "On 20 June 2016, the Complaints Department noted a call from a patient being treated for cancer concerning his assessment by the Claimant on 3 June 2016. "He had replied "open minded" to the question on the form concerning religion and alleged the Claimant had told him that the only way he could get to the Lord was through Jesus. "(She) told him she would give him her bible if he did not have one; gripped his hand tightly and said a prayer that was very intense and went "on and on"; and asked him to sing Psalm 23 [The Lord is My Shepherd] after which he was so astounded that he had sung the first verse with her. "He described the encounter as 'very bizarre' and 'like a Monty Python skit'. The court documents also point to a number of other incidents, in which Ms Kuteh told a bowel cancer patient in April 2016 'that if he prayed to God he would have a better chance of survival' Another complaint, again in April 2016, came from a patient who said Ms Kuteh 'spent more time talking about religion than doing the assessment', and another, the same month, came from a patient who said they didn't want to see Ms Koteh as they 'didn't like preaching'. Miss Kuteh, a 50-year-old mum of three, was suspended from her job in June 2016 and sacked for gross misconduct in August the same year, with her dismissal upheld by an employment tribunal later the same year. She appealed the ruling of the tribunal in 2017, but failed in her bid to have her sacking overturned, but was allowed to work as a nurse again in July last year after her working restrictions were lifted by the Nursing and Midwifery Council. Ms Kuteh, however, appealed for a second time against her sacking to the Court of Appeal - saying the employment tribunal had 'failed to consider the correct interpretation of the NMC Code and the distinction between appropriate and inappropriate expressions of religious beliefs'. She also said the tribunal had failed to acknowledge that Article 9 of the European Convention on Human Rights - Freedom to manifest one's religion or beliefs - was 'applicable' and to 'consider the fact-sensitive distinction between true evangelism and improper proselytism'. Judges at the Court of Appeal, however, rejected the nurse's most recent appeal, saying she was not unfairly dismissed in a ruling published last week. The Christian Legal Centre - which represents Ms Kuteh - said she is currently in discussion with her legal team to consider her next step. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2019/05/21/nhs-nurse-offered-bible-cancer-patient-loses-appeal-tribunal/

If this is true, she really tried... That borough has a strong Asian Muslim majority population with an insignificant black population.... I do hope she does something about their poor health n education indices... It's the worst in London... |
StevenOba:If he's as good as he claimed.... He will get good job offers in Germany or anywhere else.... As u said, a diamond has no hiding place... |
ShyWhale:Look here guy... U need to face the reality.... The only country that owes u a professional career you dream of is your native country- Nigeria... Expecting to stroll into another man's territory n get to choose among the best is illusion... They also have their own citizens to make happy.... As a foreigner, the deal is to start from the base/middle of the ladder and work your way up, with hard work, being smart n dose of good luck... That was how our parents did it in the 80s n 90s... If u feel u not cut out for that kind of life, then come back to naija n see how things work out for u.... The quorans statement on Canada is annoying.... Like seriously, u resigned your bank job in nigeria n expect once u arrive in Canada, u will be offered a branch managers job.... Just like that.... I'm sure Canada never promised anyone a professional job... What they promised is improved quality of life n solid future for your kids.... So many misconception about abroad of recent.... |
UniQue84:my dear, na room mate o hmm..orisirisi...radarada.... |
djon78:There are more dollar millionaire in nigeria than America ?? ![]() That's a statement borne out of ignorance bro, pls don't repeat it... When Google is just a click away... For your info... If there's anything at all that has remarkably improved in the last decade in America... It's their number of mlionaires.... America has 14 million millionaires, the largest in the world.... The next country is China with 3 million.... Nigeria is not even ranked at all..... Don't let the media hype of dangote, otedola etc fool u... Nigeria elites is very insignificant, we not even number 1 in Africa..... |
Studyinchina200:Why is it a big deal... There quite a lot of Chinese in nigeria... Illiterate ones at that.... |
Dwizeone:It does... Check Google map |
Abeg naija men n women should hit the gym... It's never too late.... U will thank me in the future... |
gazza07:Abeg remove social infrastructure, china sucks in that aspect.... when it comes to economic infrastructure, china is performing well in manufacturing, IT n industrialization.... But the economic service sector is very weak n protective.... Physical infrastructure in China is unrivalled and remains the best by far.... Only dubai and few Scandinavian countries come close.... |
U sure say that girl no mature pass the guy... |
abnot:I really don't what u driving at by your individualistic comparison.... How many Nigerians live in VI or ikoyi.... how many Nigerians can afford a 4.5m naira rent...... Those houses in lekki resemble where an average Nigerians live..... Middle class simply mean the lifestyle of an average citizen in a country.... It doesn't matter if the mortgage in developed countries is 200 thousand dollars, the question is can an average citizen afford the mortgage... 5 or 6 years instalmental payment plan for a car is irrelevant so long as the average citizen can afford to take the plan and own a car... The ability to afford the basic necessities and comfort of life is the definition of middle class.... Luxurious lifestyle is for the upper class.... Middle class has very little to do with income or wages because purchasing parity n cost of living differs in every country... Moreover economic system differs btw developed n developing.... The koko is what can your average citizen afford within the economic system available to them.... In nigeria, what's the worth of an average citizen in comparison to cost of living- that's the question on this thread, not some baseless comparison with middle class abroad.... For a country to boast of a viable middle class, at least 50-60% of its working population must be in the group.... In Nigeria, it's the lower class n the poverty class that's swelling at an alarming rate...... What's happening right now in nigeria is simple.... Only the upper class seems to be enjoying the country while the thinning middle class are relocating to Canada..... Professionals n civil servants who constitute the bulk of middle class in nigeria are not finding it funny due to irregular salary payment by employers.... Bragging about upper class is useless... every country, no matter how poor has upper class... The funny thing is u even comparing the upper class in nigeria to middle class in America.... Upon all the noise n the oil wealth, the Nigerian upper class in nigeria is not even up 50 thousand compared to 14 million in the USA.... Abeg make we dey reason am o.... Nigeria is more than lekki and maitama.... Nigeria is not easy at all despite crude oil at 70 dollars per barrel... Only God knows what will happen when crude oil inevitably becomes useless..... |
aribisala0:Consultants are not contractors.... I don't know where u got that from.... I'm a consultant and I'm not a contractor... This is the definition of consultant..... a person who provides expert advice professionally. NHS executives directors are consultants... Stick to what u know, avoid what u ignorant about.... Fashola isn't a consultant in electricity related affairs.... He should steer clear and stop wasting everybody's time... Simple..... |
aribisala0:Aribisala swear to me that u scrolled down that list and u didn't see the list of executive directors of NHS england.... Guys that actually run the show.... Let's learn to be honest for once, even if it's a difficult thing to do.... Besides, the argument of NHS board came up to butress the independence of institution abroad run by technocrats and why u can have a funeral home director as health minister in UK.... No need going back and forth on NHS, since u don't even want to admit your lack of depth about NHS.... U don't even know the difference btw NHS England board and NHS trusts' board.... |
aribisala0:U just playing with words..... Clutching at straws.... A CEO is an executive position that handles managerial and administrative role of a business.... Merger and acquisition are non-technical aspect of business.... Dangote wants to sell his flour business, he doesn't need to know how wheat turns to flour to make that decision... He's building a refinery, he has no business with how crude oil turns to gasoline or diesel to be the CEO... But he's definitely going to appoint an expert-experienced engineer to ensure final products from his refinery are satisfactory and up to global standard.... The above role is what fashola is performing in ministry of power.... A role he has no business with.... A CEO will only make technical decision on behalf of the company if he's got the technical background to do so.... For example, sundar pichai can make technical decision for Google as the CEO, because he's a software engineer.... Pls just google definition of EXECUTIVE if u not familiar with the word.... It clearly mentioned administrative and managerial role u confused about.... Head of state as commander in chief is an assumed role to ensure civilian authority over the military in order to prevent state within a state.... The civilian head will normally lean on his service chiefs to make technical and military decision.... Except u the punk head guy in north Korea or whatever.... U mentioned NHS.... I said consultant in health related field run NHS.... I want to believe u know consultants isn't synonym with doctors and business consultants exist..... Here is the board of directors of NHS https://www.england.nhs.uk/about/board/members/#nonexec There are all seasoned consultants with wealth of experience in health related fields b4 they joined NHS.... btw, 3 of them are medical doctors, so your statement that doctors rarely run NHS is a big lie.... Go back and read my first post.... It hasn't changed.... If fashola is to remain as power minister..... He should be relieved of the technical duty and handed over to an independent technocrat just like cbn governor or NCAA director.... He's shortchanging the nation assuming that role.... |
aribisala0:U mixing administrative roles with technical roles.... They are different.... Ministers are meant to be administrators not technocrats.... CEOs do not necessarily need to be technocrats because their role is mainly managerial n administrative.... The technical aspects is handled by the technical dept. and the head will definitely be a technocrat.... Now to nigeria.... The minister of finance shouldn't necessary be a technocrat but strategic parastatal heads in the ministry should be led by thorough-bred n sound technocrats e.g cbn governor, auditor general, accountant general, NDIC, security n exchange commisions etc U can't appoint a medical doctor as cbn governor, that's recipe for monetary policy disaster.... The minister of defence can be a cobbler for all I care, but the service chiefs must be men of military ranks with wealth of experience in their respective field... The aviation minister might not even know what an airport looks like, but u can't afford a novice to head nigeria civil aviation authority, accident n investigation bureau, FAN... These strategic parastatals drive policy implementation n putting a novice in charge will seriously mess things up.... Civil servants in the ministry/parastatal will either destroy him or mess him up.... One thing to note is unlike China n other developed countries, career progression in federal civil service is promotion driven not merit... Thus, nigerian civil servants cannot be called true technocrats and that's why they cannot be trusted to implement political n technical decisions without adequate supervision.... Their passion is material driven, not result driven..... They know they cannot be dismissed for implementation failure and will still be promoted anyway.... It's different abroad where civil service progression is mostly result driven..... The minister of health in UK doesn't run the NHS.... He's not even a member of the non executive board.... The NHS is run by consultants from differnt health related fields with wealth of experience in both clinical and admistrative practice..... That goes to show how independent institutions work in developed countries..... But even at that, non technocrat heads of institution come under scrutiny at critical periods... For example, the director of FEMA during hurricane Katrina, Michael Brown was sacked after being accused of incompetence and his ability to head emergency and rescue agency was questioned due to his law background.... Fashola is directly involved in technical decisions as regards power... That is wrong and it's obvious they scaming him... That was how they scammed bola Ige n obasanjo by collecting huge amount of money for IPP, yet not one single digit of unit was added to the national grid.... The technical department in power sure needs a technocrat lead..... Except we just want to economical with the truth.... |
The problem with making a non technocrat the minister of power in Nigeria is that he will be saddled with technical responsibility as well as policy making.... And he's going to struggle with the former esp as our power sector is experiencing its most challenging period.... If fashola is to continue as minister of power, then we need to appoint an independent technical lead to head the technical department..... |
arogun78:Tell your friend to use world remit or azimo.... They are online transfer app..... U get the money same day within minutes.... I'm very sure of azimo..... No need for all these middle men.... |
Buckubuck:It seem u have good knowledge of the power industry unlike some just talking theory n propagating failed capitalist ideology.... Now what do u think of this idea.... Let the big cities like Lagos, P.H, Abuja and industrial areas come off the national grid n let them establish independent power plant to supply them electricity... Thereby shedding load off the national grid to supply the rest of the nation who will not be able to afford the project... |
Buckubuck:Really... So that's how huawei become the largest manufacturer of telecommunication equipments.... But can u explain how what u wrote depresses the telecom market leading to underemployment.... |
omohayek:U too intelligent to be involved in this nonsense of bigotry... Your posts are highly cerebral and depicts someone who's well educated and exposed.... Pls leave tribalism to the educated illiterates..... |
Can u pls do Google n Apple... Let's celebrate our own.... Thanks... |
OLisaMacaulay:So what's 4.2M here now |
