feezay86: Building world class reference hospital.
Bello is changing the narrative It's really disturbing, the way you lots use the word "world class" for the plethora of substandard projects littered around the Nigerian space.
That a building is humongous or beautiful does not make it "world class"; these are superficial. Same way beautiful lighting doesn't make a road "world class". What matters is value and substance. What's the point of heavily inflated hospital project with much fanfare without the requisite equipment and manpower to go with?
Hospitals ar3 termed "world class" by virtue of services rendered and not some artistic building design. |

Draslo: You obviously haven't experienced life to the point where you discover that there's none like family. Family will always be there for you when others fail, trust me. This is one of the things I dislike about NL. Someone asks for advise on how to do something, and you're trying to deter them. You may think you know their story or what's best for them, but trust me, you don't.
It's important too that we ditch that erroneous belief that family is everything or the fallacious concept that blood is thicker than water. First, question you may want to ask is "What makes one family?" Is it just blood?. Is blood relationship enough to qualify one as family? I guess the men who rape their daughters, the women who throw away their newborns, siblings in incestuous relationships all qualify as family. The fact that you share DNA with people doesn't automatically make them an integral part of your life.
OP, to your question. Never normalize bad behavior or narcissistic behaviour. Ensure that you express your displeasure and let people know how their actions affect you (This is hoping you're not the problem, because entitled people can easily feel let down). Seek reconciliation where necessary and in the case of family members, you have to leave numerous doors open for such reconciliation. If nothing changes Afterwards, please get away from them.
Going forward, anyone who shares in my struggle, is genuinely excited for my wins, and wants the best for me is already family. |

Not only you Mr ex President, all of you. So, it's Mr Saraki's fault tgat years after leaving office, the succeeding administration did not put machineries in place to enforce an existing law? Remind me again, how may years ago did Saraki leave office?
Nigerians must learn to hold their leaders accountable and stop blaming the past leaders, which is what the current leaders want you to do. |
Health › Re: Why Nigeria’s Maternal Mortality Is Amongst Highest In The World by Tripitaka: 5:50pm On Jan 09, 2021 |
Tonymario58: As a doctor in a hospital in Northeast Nigeria, Nigerian women of the northern extraction are 8 times likely to die during pregnancy compare to their counterparts in the south. Pregnancy here means the period from the time fertilization occured to 42 days after delivery no matter the duration, site, and mode of termination of the pregnancy.
Almost always, the pregnant women want to be alive but the men who has the capacity and capability to help their wives do not really care possibly due to mere idiocy or the common lackadaisical attitude towards women common to the culture and/or religion. Most pregnancies here are not planned due to the common mentality that God gives children and he'll provide for them.
The women just like most african mothers are willing to support financially to make ends meet in the family but the cultural and religious inhibitors usually prevail in the society aggravated by the vicious cycle of poverty, illiteracy, and ignorance. So, the women are not empowered.
The situation in the northeast mirrors the situation in other northern regions of the country. The northern leaders are selfish, wicked, and unpatriotic just like most leaders in all other regions of the country only that the northern people are disadvantaged by the above vicious cycle pointed out with geography and topography.
The solution to the high MMR should start with empowering the Northern/Nigerian girl child through free and enforced basic education, scholarships, financial empowerment and sustainability through job creation, skill acquisitions, cultural and religious reformation, women advocacy, free maternal and free under five health-care services in all the northern states of the country sponsored by the state governments, individuals and organizations, equipment of hospitals and primary health centers with basic facilities for maternal and under five care, training and periodical retraining of TRADITIONAL BIRTH ATTENDANTS, incentives for health care givers in the regions and to attract others clustered in other regions of the country, reasonable remuneration of health workers in the country to keep them around (I'll soon leave the region and country for good due to poor pay and devilish work conditions).
Truly, the MATERNAL MORTALITY RATE/RATIO and UNDER FIVE MORTALITY RATE is very high in the country mostly due to the northern burden and almost all the causes are preventable. Excellently written |

cococandy: He didn’t do the boy a favor. The young man earned it. Ask him how many years he “served”.
That said, some ogas are terrible and won’t do as much The emboldened isn't necessarily true even though it may appear logical. Under the "nwaboy" system, the boss is under no obligation to "settle" the apprentice; it is simply discretionary.
The understanding is that whilst the boss benefits f6om the boy's stewardship, the boy also benefits from the boss' tutelage while having free food and acomodation. This is why it is mostly the families of a proposed "nwaboy" seeking a good oga for their son to serve under and never the other way round
In some cases, at the end of the stewardship, the boss will say he has no money to give, but may support the boy with contact for suppliers, or simply just pray for him and that's it. Mind you, under this system, there is never any express written agreement. Both parties juat have an understanding and that's it. Which is why you see some boys serving for 8-10yrs even though the initial understanding was around 5yrs.

The problem with the Nigerian political space is that, no matter how woeful, insipid, clueless, miserable and wicked a politician is, there will always be a majority cheering them on.
If you criticise them, their cheerleaders will automatically switch to the tested and trusted ethno-religious antics of divide and conquer that has always worked magic.

Crime › Re: Queency Benna Accuses Alaska Obi Of Rape by Tripitaka: 5:47pm On Dec 18, 2020 |
RuudVanNisteroy: How can you call it consensual and not rape. When the only reason she agreed to sleep with him is because he agreed to pay N200,000 and sent her a fake alert.
That means you also believe prostitutes can't get raped after customers sleep with them and run away without paying. The key index in rape cases is consent. The question is, did the guy forcefully have sex with her? Was she under the influence? Does she have the mental capacity to make decisions that will count as consent? Is she of age?
When you answer these questions, you would have also found out of if she was raped or not. I repeat that she can only sue for "obtaining under false pretense". Unfortunately, no judge will listen to her anyway as prostitution is illegal in Nigeria. |

So, where's the rape? |

RuudVanNisteroy: This man goes around sleeping with prostitutes and refuses to pay and can see from most comments, some men don't think that constitutes rape . I'm sorry, but do you know what rape means? She can accuse him of "obtaining by false pretense", but never rape. With available evidence, it was clearly consensual sex. |

Claudiusdeux: Well
1.Your cousin is not also playing international football during weekdays. Many of these players have played internaitonal football several times over the past few months. Cheslea has several players who are internaitonals for their country
2.Your cousin does not train like a professional footballer. Professional footballers also do hours upon hours of training...in addtion to the regular training they do for games. That tries them out.They ahve to do fitness training and football training....because they have to be at the top of their game constantly
3.In addtion to international matches, Cheslea players also play in the Champions leauge, that's addtional football training.
4.Also, how long does your borther play. Street football is not always 90 minutes, plus it is played at a slower pace, than the football played in the Premier league (and English football is typically fast).
On average, a Premier league player for Cheslea since the season came back, has to play football at least 3-4 times a week, 90 minutes, and in order to play that footy, he has to travel constantly...especially when he is playing Champions league and Internaitonals.
Far more than your bro who only plays two games of footy, at not quite the same pace, twice a week, and does not have to travel to Kano to play in the Aiteo cup, and then Lagos to play in the MTN cup...and to Abdijan to play for Nigeria on Wednesday....
And let's not forget..the FA and League cup are coming up...more games. I get your point but the fact that these professional footballers get the best of everything which the street footballer doesn't, should compensate for everything.
They have access to world class training grounds, clinically designed pitches, personalized training routine, top psychologists, top nutritionists and dietitians plus top sporting gears that have been designed to bring the best out of them.
You said they play 3-4 times a week, I hope you know that's an overstatement. Typically, teams play once a week, apart from weeks when they have to play in Europe or midweek league games. Rarely does a team play thrice in a week. |
