See the way people are overhyping MBBS...
Engineering students suffer alot..Imagine having 10 straight hours of lectures per day and you still have to read and do practical, workshop practice....

In my 200L second semester,I offered courses in all engineering department i.e 8 bulky courses..
The smallest textbook out of these courses have (1040 page that was Electronics engineering by Hughes)..That means we finished 8 bulky courses within 3months while MBBS students have solid 1 year for just 3 courses...
To be sincere, this two courses are difficult but Engineering is more demanding..coupled with stress and alot of workshop practice...

I respect doctors alot Sha ..

Engine students should engage in discourse also. It might seem that everywhere you go it's medicine this medicine that but sometimes it's just that they're the only ones interacting with each other and others from other fields.

It's getting worse.


The "cash out" lunatics and conspiracy theory nutters will soon arrive.


May his soul rest in peace.

To come and say he was old .

grammarnazi12:
I'm beginning to think the government is.

The government is perhaps using celebrities to push the belief.

However, I believe there is COVID-19 in Nigeria but I am still skeptical about the figures released by the government as our government officials are habitual liars who cannot be trusted.

what should be the ideal figures then

favinvest:
lockdown lockdown..

why not talk about shutting down international flights first??

since nobody is doing that, why should we .

I think the op is asking for the literal meaning . We already know what it denotes but like how does thread and needle relate with number 9 .

Honduras01:
I look at the number of death and not number of cases. We have just 1 death. How far? just 1 peree.


Government should free us jare...

yea that part . Unless I'm myopic or something and we're seriously understaffed, the no. of people in isolation (admission) is still kinda low which means the trend of Nigerians not getting really sick still continues . So for now it's still manageable maybe .

BreconHills:
All over the world the virus begins its spread in places with the largest airports and sir traffic. It follows business and commerce not place names. As time passes spread in secondary areas increases.

Nigeria's own is too inconsistent and uneven . Lagos might be the one with the large ports and all but commerce and business is nationwide .

Swiftlee:
I have always wondered by States like Zamfara, Kano and Katsina with very cold weather this period and high population have low, I mean very low figures when compared to other hotter states. If COVID 19 spreads as a result of Colder Temperature, Population and Contacts.

Remember, this is not to dispute the fact that Covid does not spread in warmer weather. I'm just curious

yea it's confusing. Also curious why we're even in a second wave when we didn't do anything special . Also Lagos testing positivity without increase in testing . Just so many questions. Unfortunately ncdc, the ptf and other stakeholders don't seem to have grasp of what they're doing .

I won't be surprised if governments make u-turn on schools . We'll just have to wait for it go down miraculously like it did the first time .

Chii59:
This 2nd wave of covid-19 will take many Nigerians unaware. Please be careful.

health workers will feel the brunt .

Good question. Here to read the comments .
Sometimes I've pondered about this(while in school though) but found it hard to voice out so as not to get labeled as 'bad belle' . I guess there's nothing wrong with it if it's just about pass and go .

Rgade:
That Twitter account isn't the "official" ASUU account,indeed ASUU has no "official" social media account but that Twitter account does say exactly what ASUU says.

that account lifts news pertaining to ASUU and post them. They have no affiliation to ASUU. Daily trust should know this . That admin of that account just posted this for confusion like he/she has done before .

What's wrong with Nigerian print . Daily trust publishing this news even though ASUU has denounced that twitter account and when clearly that account is a parody that happens to feed off news from other media reports .

Dpharisee:
Yahaya Bello has said he is not going to be part of the ongoing Scamdemic and Kogi academic calendar has not been distrupted.
mysteriously?
How come they are announcing thousands of Covid19 patients cured and discharged by NCDC yet there is no cure and all we need is a dangerous vaccine?

yet they're are resuming on the 18th

FLYFIRE:
It is real if they test you. Have you wondered why they wont just take a swab from your mouth if it is transmitted through saliva. Why do they have to push a long stick to the brain through the far back of one`s throat? They are infecting people.

oh God

CuteTj:
I am sure you are not up to 30 years of age & if you are, you are not up to 35 years. So therefore, the chances you are suffering from diabetes, high BP, serious diseases or any middle or old age related ailment is low. Hence your body was able to fight off the covid symptoms without any medication as a result of your balanced immune system normal for your age.

For people that are suffering from the ailments listed above and several other illnesses. If covid manages to infiltrate their bodies, their immune system which is not as strong as yours might not be able to protect their bodies thereby causing death.

Covid in it self is not deadly but when someone with an underlying medical condition contracts it, he/she might not survive it as a result of a weak immune system.

Just because you survived it, majority of Nigerians (Nigeria has a huge young population) survive it doesn't mean it's not deadly. I believe you now have an understanding why you survived it and some might not.

No they don't . Keep trying though .

Edusouls:
People go believe am with experience as I had mine,when they catch the deadly disease not talk talk..

they will still say it's malaria

chachanga:
Nice that schools are opening up again but is overloading the session really gonna be helpful on the long run...?

This seems more possible where the emphasis is dumping info on students to "cram" and regurgitate for the sole purpose of passing exams and gathering shitty certs rather than actual capacity building geared at facilitating intellectual development and equipping students for problem solving in real world, industry and business place scenarios.

But who cares....chop, chop work to be done....run along then dears, have at it then

Though I'm not from them , i don't think they can strictly stick to the calendar. So many external factors (ASUU, corona) and internally(they really expect everyone to have the same pace for this compressed calendar ).

I hope some governors ordering reopening of schools considered their state figures . Before we start to hear of reversal .

goodtogo:
Why delaying school resumption when there has been no case of Covid-19 in Enugu since December?

solidarity

Covid conspiracy theorists and Anti-vaxxers, over to you .

Golan007:
And if we don't do it, when the numbers rise you would still insult the government.

eh the numbers are rising and they're insulting the government even more so...

willexyaho:
Hmmmm

If you know what this man is capable of,
You wont believe him.

Just don't feel relaxed because of him.

so what should we do . Start stacking up our homes?

The comments here . If he had said otherwise you all will still say the same thing and even start cursing him . Anyway I've maintained since we don't have what it takes it'd be foolish of them to claim to declare lockdown .

Exc2000:
I do... Check out Sololearn app on Android or IOS and you might even hate the traditional classroom learning.

You learn when you want at your own time and convenience even on your bed

well different strokes then. Personally, especially as a clinical student, just can't see it

Exc2000:





The scam called Nigerian Universities

What's the use your of Computer Science department, or Faculty of information science if they can't build E-Learning solutions, like streaming sites for classes, Mobile apps like solo learn, or compressed low data lecture videos


.

do you actually like online learning . From house even? .

Blackman needs to read and things will set
[]Public and private primary and secondary schools in Lagos State are not reopening on Monday, January 4, 2021, as earlier announced, in fact, their reopening depends on how the second wave of COVID-19 goes, it was gathered on Sunday.]

paulolee:
prevention is better than taking untrusted vaccines

only health workers and a select few people might end up vaccinated anyway .

DICKstractor:


Covid-19 is a very learned virus. It ran away from market places and other public places to the classroom

well markets are outside afterall...

SSANU is also looming

Irijosa777:
I tire oo

With project wahala, na God go help us oo

ah i no dey that side o

ChiefS:
The reason Naija cases have no trend is that many of the states are not testing apart from Lagos, Abuja and 2 or 3 other states. Many other states occasionally test few samples which will not show a trend. If you need a trend, isolate Lagos and Abuja and study the trend.

and the trend is? Going up? But why is it going up? Or testing went up? Why is it so uneven
