jechona: I know some people will be mad at me for creating this thread, but lets face reality here.

In Nigeria, the medical profession seams to be worshiped and given the best considerations and benefits compared to other professions, yet it is the most irresponsible profession in the country.

It might interest you to know that despite all they enjoy;

- about 80% of death cases in the hospitals are caused by the doctors or nurses negligence. (they have a backup, 'we tried out best but we couldn't make it'. I wonder what best they tried).

- there is a saying 'health is better than wealth' but for the medical profession 'wealth is better than health'. So no matter how severe your case is, without money no attention is given to you.

- In the hospital, you pay what ever bill they charge you without prizing, even when you don't know what you are paying for.

- In some cases, especially surgery, after you have paid for most of the items needed before the surgery, they will still accumulate them for you to pay again before you leave the hospital (only some smart and deciplined people are able to detect this with their reciepts).

- You hardly go for anything in the hospital and come back successful the first day, you must keep having dates with the doctor.

- Once its 2pm in the government hospitals, they tell you they are tire that they have been working since mornig (even when there are no patients).

- And the worst of all, most of the doctors and nurses lacks manners. (their mouth alone can kill the patient before the illness)

please feel free to add your own experiences and observations.

gbadexy: The guy is perfectly right. On the other hand I think its your hypocritical christian brothers that need God's forgiveness.
Simply because a couple Islamic threads made front page on friday that was muslims holy day, the christians flooded the thread with insults and complaints about that despite the fact that there were numerous other threads on the front page including tonto dike riding bicycle.
I am a muslim and we aren't worshiping the same God so let's skip the pretense.
I have more respect for pagans and some atheists than for the holier than thou, hypocrite christians.

Anamelechi: After 8 months of marriage without conceiving, i and my husband decided to do some test. It was discovered that i my right fallopian tube has a total blockage. I was directed to where i can go and have it open but I'm confused. Please docs in the house i need your advice.

israel007: Enough with this Goldie's deÁth already. Move on

Ujujoan: Not to digress the topic sha . .
This is exactly why I'm no fan of inter tribal marriages. Especially igbos marrying Yorubas. I almost made the mistake once but Thank God for divine intervention.
Nothing like having your own man to speak your native tongue with.
All these Yoruba nbgati people stealing our men and refusing to live by our rules. Tufiakwa!
The man wey go marry am nko? Onu ru kai kai
I have a sister who is on the verge of being decieved into marrigae by a yoruba man, I've been rolling on the ground begging her not to agree.
Plus prayers and fasting and soaking my rosary in water.
Abeg make them keep their ofe mmanu make we keep our nna bros!
Errrm . . . no offence!

mofolorunshoabi: Thank u all for ur various contributions. You don't know how relieved I am reading them all. Somebody erronously quoted my age to be 34. Am 39 now and the man will be 50 this year. This is not superstory. It is happening to me NOW as I speak. Our first born will be 15 while the last child is 12 this year. Honestly I did not bargain for this. My naiveity has caused me a lot. Even my husband, the petitioner said it in court that "this woman has been a wonderful woman" because I did everything to support him. What he is planning is to keep the kids in the east so they can learn ibo while he stays in lagos with the widow. My major concern is if it is possible for me to get 50/50 custody of the kids because what pple are saying is that in Nigeria law, fathers must have custody of their children once they are above 7. This is a trying period for me please I need ur advise and prayers.

Geomac: My Yoruba friend (Muslim) married a Yoruba Lady (Christian). He goes to Mosque while the wife goes to Church with the kids.

jidegirl12: I was a very good Moslem and young Alhaja even and I married a Christian ( pastor's son) and I'm practicing Christian now BUT never forgot my childhood doctrine, and apply few Islamic values in my immediate family for example no pork ( pastors son inclusive ) and few more ..... go figure

tzetzefly: Fellow forumites, how do you view this situation when a man / woman gets married to somebody, belonging to another religious belief. To what extent do you think this alliance can work..?

olabowale: PastorAIO, thanks for wanting the clarification of what the contributors are saying about what God is praised by in Yoruba language. Some of these are purely unIslamic. Examples are the Kiniun awon omo Judahs, Ogbe inu wundia sholas, etc.

We in Islam do not objectify The Almighty by restricting Him as a lion or some animals of some people or lord of some people or using a womb of a virgin as a pad (like in bachelor's pad) for a moment! These are Trinity, and it is strictly Christians. I dont think the babalawos, etc will even stoop that low, since they are usually convinced about their beliefs, knowing their gods, not calling them multi personalities.

uplawal: @ALHAJI OLABOWALE, imagine vanity just  said "JESU NI MASIN" ,they even says GOD is Prince of peace,lion of the tribe of judah, and all sorts of blasphemy,anyways av also said it before but thank GOD now i know the most sweetest attributes to give my GOD,LORD OF THE WORLDS,and it amazes me that its only in ISLAM we dnt use another silly,ignorant attributes to GOD such like,LORD OF lords,our own GOD does not recognise any nonesense dirty god to be existing on earth to be raise in high profile except HIM,ALLAHU AKBAR,ALLAHU AKBAR

Ay92: I really don't think it's ulcer because I don't play with food,I eat normally but I found out that the pain increases when I don't eat earlier enough or when I'm fasting(which I only do once in a while).
Thanks in anticipation of your replies.
