it seems poster wants to be in anywhere but Nigeria/Africa. for a first timer with what appears to be little support, the popular western countries would be difficult. Perhaps you could explore some of the emerging economies eg Brazil, eastern Europe, south east Asia.

just as you have your opinion others have theirs. If you did not want this to be debated you should never have brought it here and would be better kept locked up some where in your brain. this is a public forum so everyone do not have to agree with you.

@ snowdrop,your argument is senseless,dnt u understand wot d poster is trying to point out?its not d amount charged 4 d meal bt y they have to make it a do or die thing.y in Gods name will they make it mandatory for patients to buy their food,there are other things they cud make money from,if the hospital is interested in making food for patients it shud b optional.in my family hospital(subol hospital)they have a canteen where u can buy from bt it is optional n not mandatory,the quality of d food is even ok n yet its not compulsory u buy from them.u re free to buy or get your food anywhere just make sure u take a good food.

pls stop arguing blindly,use your brain correctly.

thanks for advertising your family business but this is the wrong section for commercials. Nevertheless if you had remembered to charge your brain cells this morning you would know there is a gulf of difference between your family hospital and a govt one. If you insist on optional food then you could also demand optional registration fees, consultation fees, immunisation fees etc. Nigerians and free things. Simply ridiculous.

I don't believe this poster above. 11 years is Over the Top
Let's forget the domestic abuse sef.

- Conspiracy to smuggle a child into a country??
- Fraudulently acquiring up to 6 passports??

And all of this by an illegal immigrant. By someone who was supposed to be keeping a low profile and managing her daily bread??

She is lucky she didn't get 30 years in prison.

is being a househelp is now slavery then at least half of nigerians need to be in jail as we speak including yourself because i am sure at some point in your life either you or members of your family have used this service.

If she is an illegal immigrant deport her; i hardly blame anyone for escaping from the so called third world to earn a living in advanced countries. After all these same hypocritic western countries have plummetted Africa's wealth over centuries. People cross borders largely for economic reasons.

No body knows here the nature of the so called abuse. Some parents lose their temper and smack their children; that's not malicious in any way. The truth of the matter is people here are so quick to jump on the bandwagon of the moral high ground when you all are as if not more guilty. He who is without sin cast the first stone.

I am sure the woman brought these people in to help with her domestic needs as she has 5 children. Househelps is common practice in Nigeria. So people don't act whiter than the white man.

The allegation of slave trading is definitely OTT and 11 years jail term is way too harsh. She unfortunately is being made example of by a PC society.

Seriously I do NOT understand you
You are comparing 9ja healthcare;food and all with developed countries? oti ooo.Whats next . . .Naija boarding house food Versus home made dinner.

Whats up with the i think ,i stand to be corrected . . . .argument based on conjectures?
The onus of the matter is that such additional services should be made Optional.QED
It can be N50 or 5K per diem,it matters not as long as its NOT compulsory.The hospital from every indication is NOT a Private one therefore stuffs like feeding should not be a do or die affair.

Btwn,do Private hospitals have such strict meal laws?diet fees?

at least i base my arguements setting practical examples rather than yourself that debates as if this is some fantasy world.

The bottom line is that the hospital for reasons best known to them have set N500 for food. No one is forced to eat the food, but if you are admitted there it is part of the total cost. Thats the beauty of choice here. If you dont like it then move to the nearest private hospital, shikena. Why are you taking panadol for another mans headache.

I would rather a well equipped but somewhat dear hospital that a free but crappy one.

PS; no ones comparing nigeria with whatever country; you attempt to mislead readers here is rather pathetic.

Stella Obasanjo hospital is somewhere around "Country estate" (I sit to be corrected about the estate's name) down the Sapele road/Etete axis and I'm sure it caters mainly for WOMEN and CHILDREN!

you have to realize in these days of 419/fraud a lot of people would be afraid to lend a helping hand even if they would want to. inviting you would mean sticking out their necks for you, a complete stranger.

it may be easier to register to attend a conference/short course in the US as longer as you can find a sponsor and raise the capital for the trip.

@ ifyalways

we can continue with this argument till day breaks but after all said and done, health is an expensive business. In the most developed nations of the world, you have to pay through your nose to get even some basic healthcare.

At N500 per day, it remains cheaper than most private hospitals. If we dig deeper, you will find that, the longer the patient stays on admission, the cheaper he of she pays for food. If someone is admitted for a month, i think how it works out would be eg N300 per day rather than the full amount. The N500 is reserved for short hospital stays. Again i stand corrected.

It is not that simple a mathematics ie, N500 * no. of days. This total amount is only paid on discharge and not a daily levy.

does that mean the children and women sections have been moved from the old specialist site? interesting then.

@ ifyalways

look at it this way; most of the people who decline the food and ultimately end up paying would have to be middle class and above. therefore its like a robin hood tax; as most persons at the lower end of society dare not let go of N500 and not eat the food.

remember other services at the hospital is already subsidized, eg registration, consultation fees, etc. common, government no be father Christmas afterall.

Health › Re: My Experience At Stella Obasanjo Hospital, Benin City. by snowdrops(m): 1:16pm On Mar 18, 2011

abi o. N500 is already at a discount. although we have to remember that a good number of the patients are indigents and could hardly afford the said amount excluding hospital fees.
