Politics / Re: We Will Never Get The Right Leaders If We Fail To Be Objective! by TONYE001(m): 7:01am On Jan 09, 2023 |
aariwa: Accusing tribes and abusing groups of people are typical examples of not being objective. Mr. Tinubu has supporters across all regions of Nigeria, not just the southwest. Being objective is arguing with facts why Candidate A isn't the right person for the job. Not abusing any supporter or candidate. For example, I don't believe Tinubu is the best person to lead us because of his health and his allegedly criminal past. His mindset makes him appear desperate, and his philosophy is not right for us currently. No one is absolutely sure of his history as it has got different versions (his age, his school, his career, etc). There are more reasons why I don't support him. They keep using Lagos as an example of his legacy, and I think this is a deliberate attempt to be deceitful. Lagos, like any other state, is a product of past and present leaders. Plus, it's one state that is favoured by Nigerian peculiarities (I can say a few more things about this last point). Now, I've said what I said without attacking his supporters. I also did not insult or abuse him. This is being objective. 2 Likes |
Politics / We Will Never Get The Right Leaders If We Fail To Be Objective! by TONYE001(m): 12:45am On Jan 09, 2023 |
I just finished watching the just-conducted ObiDatti session organized by Channels TV. I returned to Nairaland to see what the public perception of this interview is, and this got me terribly disappointed. I'm rather shocked that a good number of us have thrown objectivity to the gutters. It's disappointing that people can't make arguments with objective points. They seem to resort to abuses and throwing all sorts of tantrums. While we engage in tribalism, thieves and crooks continue to privatize our collective wealth. While we attack each other in every electioneering period, the wrong leaders attain power. Why don't we engage in objective discussions? Why don't we make informed decisions for once? The president must not be my brother. He must not be from my region. We only need the most convincing candidate. This is why we must listen them, analyze their thoughts, and review their pasts. I think Mr. Obi and his colleague did a great job tonight. I'm pleased with their responses on crucial national matters like education, security, health, among others. I'm particularly pleased with their view on the emigration of Nigerian professionals. Politics is tiring. It's too bitter. Politicians and electorates can be irrational. People can see an obvious fact and make a different proclamation because of personal gains. Greed, I'd say. Really, what's the way forward? When will we get to a point when people will market their candidates without constituting nuisances? When will people drop their greed and see things for what they are? When? 2 Likes |

CheapHomes1: You are merely repeating yourself, sir. I answered all the questions you raised and all you said is that I "failed to answer your questions"? It appears you have something in mind, I can't repeat myself. To make our discussion productive, I did not only answer your questions but I applied BASIC ECONOMICS concepts just to show you that I really. Intended to have an educative discuss with you. Why don't you show me exactly how I failed to answer your questions? Thank God my response is open for all to see. If you have any other thing to say, please, by all means, go on. 1 Like |

CheapHomes1: 1. More population, more specialists (skilled labourers), increased human capital. Net cash flow increases too. Of course you know how redirecting money to a state amount to development. The success of CU in the state will demonstrate that Ogun is a safe place to conduct business. The population increase means there will be increase in demand...this will also increase supply, and there will be an increase in the net flow of cash/income. 2. First, the medical school will attract medical students and specialist doctors to train them. The teaching hospital will also serve the state. The specialist healthcare facility will attract patients and open new grounds in the health sector. For example, if they offer MRI services, they'd be a referral centre as this is not common in our environment. The teaching hospital will also train resident doctors and other allied healthcare specialists. Overall, more money flows into the state. Same applies to the law school. 3. Don't get this third question. They'd be doing their jobs na. Refer to my point 1 above, please. 4. Let me put it this way: the higher the population, the higher the economic interactions (buying and selling of goods and services). The more the economic interactions, the more the profit. Businesses will boom once there is increased profit. Once these businesses boom/expand, they'd need more factors of production (land and labour). Ogun will enjoy new, great structures...and employment will increase. SME's will thrive, bigger companies will not be left out. The revenue of the state will increase as the more the businesses, the more the tax. With the extra money, the state will develop in areas the government deems fit. So, the money will be redirected to private and public sectors. 4. Already answered this. Thank you. 1 Like |

airsaylongcome: What a sad experience! So sorry about the passing of your dad. IGNORANCE, frustration, poverty, and sometimes, pure hatred and jealousy are major players in a typical doctor-patient relationship in our environment. If not, how does one arrive at a conclusion that "a doctor killed his person" without conducting an autopsy? Most of our people take their relatives to all sorts of corners before bringing them to the hospital...and they expect the doctor to perform magic... I once watched a video where a certain pastor was violently kicking the abdomen of a gravid woman in the name of deliverance. Such stupidity! Our people will go about exhausting their resources on babawalos et al. and when the person is almost gone (also when they've run out of cash), they'd bring the poor individual to the hospital. You see ignorant people that know ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about the human body/health will be giving idiotic medical advice to friends/neighbours/etc...causing more harm/damage. We once had a case of obstructed labour. This woman had been to a TBA where she was forced to push...she ran into exhaustion, and soon began to bleed. She was rushed to the emergency ward...her baby had died and she lost her uterus. Young woman in her twenties. She almost died, as a matter of fact. If she had died, who knows Her people would have caused havoc in the hospital. We need to revamp the system. The National Orientation Agency has a lot of job to do. We need to have readily-available armed security in our hospitals, especially in volatile centres. And, most importantly, healthcare workers must be willing to protect themselves at all cost. 2 Likes |

Richy4: If every patient pays up, there'd certainly be some money to accommodate emergencies. If the government decides to create funds to cushion hospital cost, emergencies will be covered. But what happens in situations where some patients refuse to pay, and the government is doing next to nothing to help the situation? How will consumables be acquired? How will hospital staff (that will attend to the patient) be paid? If a private facility continues to "save lives first" and patients fail to pay thereafter, they'd close down in no time. 4 Likes |
Health / Re: Doctors Share Alarming Stories Of Attack On Duty In Nigerian Hospitals by TONYE001(m): 2:06pm On Jan 05, 2023 |
Desusi: Wow. Let me attempt to clarify things here. 1. The health systems in Nigeria and abroad are truly not the same, the same way health systems are different across other countries. 2. Doctors don't believe they are next to God. Doctors don't assign their jobs to nurses or other professionals to do. If you've seen any instant where a doctor asked a nurse to do his job, mention it in a quote. 3. A doctor can't be with you/your relative all the time, not in our environment at least. The patient-to-doctor ratio here is extremely poor. In some hospitals, a doctor that's on call will be responsible for the entire medical or surgical ward (M and F). How do you want him to be with your patient all the time? 4. Doctors don't order for tests "to use patients as experiments." Where did you even hear this from? If a doctor sees a patient and immediately pronounces that the patient will die without doing anything, you'd come here to cry for his head. Now, the doctor intends to help and asks for some investigations to get a better understanding of what's up, you are now accusing him of this No doctor will order for investigations without first stabilizing the patient. If you bring in a patient in an emergency setting, after stabilizing the patient, the next thing is to try to work out what the actual problem is...this involves clerking, physical examination, and investigations (tests). If your patient dies while some tests are being conducted, is it the doctor's fault 5. Comparing the Nigerian situation to your experience in Europe: healthcare workers don't even have enough hand gloves and other PPE's to use...most hospitals can't afford to give these to the husbands of women in labour because they want to witness the delivery. In most teaching hospitals, the labour room is a poorly-demarcated broad room. We don't allow patients' spouses to come in....because we would be exposing other ladies' privacies to you! We don't have enough facilities to have one patient to a room... Our peculiarities make it unfair to compare our health system with that of developed nations. 6. You want change? Talk to your leaders. Vote rightly. The entire system has to be revamped! It's not the doctor's fault that things are like this. Doctors are doing their best, really. A LOT OF TIMES, they go as far as paying for patients...they donate blood for patients...they do a lot...because the system does not even meet the minimal expectation of what an ideal hospital should be. 7. In conclusion, ensure you (and your friends/family) come to the hospital early. Don't wait until it's too late. If you truly feel that the doctor didn't handle your case as he should, there are legal options to pursue justice. 8. Doctors have the right to defend themselves. If a doctor feels threatened, and there is no possibility to escape from the situation, be rest assured that he'd fight back, to whatever extent. 10 Likes 1 Share |

Fuckyoumod: I do not deny that there are bad doctors, just like there are bad engineers, lawyers, etc. But you should know this, please. Our society and culture make practicing medicine DIFFICULT. Here's a typical scenario: A woman is terminally pregnant. This pregnancy wasn't managed in any hospital. From conception, she has been patronizing traditional birth attendants. She goes into labour. But there's a complication - it's her first pregnancy, her labour is obstructed. She goes to the TBA centre for delivery. Those guys don't know her labour is obstructed. They do all sorts of things just to zap the little money her family has. In the process, she ruptures her uterus and she goes into severe bleeding. Now seeing that this woman is almost gone, she's packaged and sent to the teaching hospital. Of course, there's little or nothing any doctor ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD can do. The woman dies. The story now flies around that she died in a teaching hospital. This is what doctors see in our environment. Patients don't present on time. They do all sorts of things until the last second. Our people don't make the doctor the first point of medical consultation. They'd rather see a pharmacist (or an ordinary drug seller), a nurse, traditionalists, etc. You get the point now? 4 Likes |

BigBashiru: My God! This is the funniest thing I've read today. A doctor that leaves his comfort, goes to the hospital for call, works impossible hours is lazy. A doctor that moves from one surgery to the other, manages all sorts of cases in the A & E is lazy. A doctor that runs clinics where he sees over fifty patients daily is lazy. A doctor that uses his resources, sometimes even donates blood for patients he doesn't even know ab initio is lazy. Well done. 5 Likes 1 Share |
