I dont absolve the staff of the hospital from being unprofessional, nobody should abuse anyone coming for help.
But the help was sought in the wrong quarters, which is my point.
Private hospitals should not be given that responsibility to 'do what they can do' in an emergency. Many private hospitals have only a single Dr on duty at night time who is likely just someone who has just finished medical school, mandated to look after their stable patients overnight. Even if those stable patients develop complications overnight, they will be in a very tight situation and should be moved to the government hospitals.
Rudeness or politeness in this particular case will help bruise or assuage egos, but that still hasn't helped the patient.
So if the purpose is to talk about unprofessionalism/rudeness that's fine we can go ahead. However, that still wouldn't resolve or bring solution to the daily problems we see faced by patients in a true emergency- such as delay in receiving appropriate care which will invariably lead to a poor outcome.
This leads again to the question- why were they in a private hospital in the first place?

I am shocked you are talking like this, it shows empathy is dead in Nigeria.

What is the primary responsibility of any hospital, private or public? I had thought it was to save lives or at least to alleviate pain. Are you insinuating that private hospitals in Nigeria are not expecting to provide first aid?

I had also thought the hippocratic oath to which they swear is to save life and alleviate sufferings. I never knew it was to make money at the expense of suffering patients.

May God bless you. Most Nigerians are very kind. It's the corrupt system that has discouraged many. Not withstanding, there are a whole lot of Nigerians always willing to help in times like this.

I vehemently disagree. It's the people that run the system. A corrupt people running a good system would ruin the sysrem and would fail, a good people running a corrupt system would eventually improve the system and succeed.

I’m reading through in tears atm, how wicked human beings are, worst than animals in the wilderness. What’s the difference btw the Attackers, Doctors, Nurses & the so called Police? Is it a sin to be born in a country called Nigeria ?
I’m shaking while typing, this my 1st time replying on topics like this.
Op God is your source, you got a heart which I will also do the same. What you did yesterday is a seed you sowed for your generations to come, which they must reap the good you did. Heaven never forgets.

Is not Nigeria that is the problem, it's the people. A people that values prosperity irrespective of source as against love, honesty and honour, is bound to breed wickedness.

frndfghtr:
how do u come to existence

And how do those that know how they come to existence fare? Are you better than those that don't know how they came to existence. Did the callous Policemen and doctors that refuse to help a dying victim even though that's their main responsibility not know how they came to existence? Did the armed robbers that wickedly maimed the poor girl not know how the came to existence?
In fact 99% of Nigerians claim to know how they came into existence, but they are the most wicked and heartless people on the face of the earth.

The Okada Driver and Keke marwa guy are one in a million. I doubt they are even Christian or muslims, as these religions are more interested in power and wealth than helping fellow humans.

We would like to thank you for the interest you have shown in the Total Group. Please note that new job offers are regularly published on our website. We invite you to consult them and to set up an alert by clicking .
Wishing you every success in your job search.
Yours sincerely,
Best regards,

I feel sad that our youths refuse to wake up from their slumber and smell the coffee. The reality is that there is no job out there waiting for you, we are no longer in the 70s, 80's or even 90s, in the 21st century, you create jobs and not search for jobs. Any course or degree that cannot equip you to create jobs is as useless as the K in knife.

How many people can Oando and Total combined hire? What is even their total staff strength? What is the total number of people employed in the oil industry by IOCs. Outside contract staff, I doubt the total number is up to 5,000. I am talking about Total, chevron, Agip, Mobil, shell (shell has basically left Nigeria ) and the few indigenous oil companies. Meanwhile, you have millions of graduates dreaming of working in the oil industry.
Ordinary 4,000 positions advertised by immigration, and 6.5 millions youths turned up. The job seekers were so much that stadiums in Nigeria could not contain them. This was in 2014. And you are crying over a few open positions in total and Oando. Do you know how many applicants applied, many with superior qualifications? Even ordinary Dangote truck driver's positions, over 500 PHD holders applied.

You should even consider the rejections a blessing in disguise. It mean you should either start using the knowledge and skills you spent time and money acquiring at the university to create sellable goods or services, or go to acquire further knowledge and skills if you have not acquired enough.

Read the story of some of the most successful entrepreneurs in Nigeria like Tony Elumelu and Jimo Ibrahimo, they were rejected by multiple companies until they use their skills to create wealth.

So if your face appears in a video and that video is promoting an Islamic event you won't shout nor claim islamaization you won't open your clean mouth to rubbish Islam just because your face was used in a video. You should count it a privilege to even appear in the video the mosque or Islamic organization has successfully hosted such events and will continue to they don't need your face. The mosque will continue to grow a d the gates of hell shall not prevail

Islamic event too far, ask am about Catholic event. Imagine his reaction is his face is used to promote a Catholic event without his knowledge.
Shebi catholics are also Christians, even though the pentecostals hate them. Same way pentecostals hate cele, jehova witness and other non pentecostal Christians.

Pentecostal Christianity seems to be the most intolerant of the Christian denominations, they are equivalent of Islamic ISIS. The want to impose their doctrines of others by force.

Why limit it to tricycles, does Ganduje have beef against tricycle or tricycle operators? What about cabs, should male and female enter the same taxi? Taxis are crammed with 2 in front and 4 at the back in the north. What of buses, why should the ban not be applicable to buses?

What of planes? Should men and women enter the same plane? Nigerian airlines often cram their seats like kabu kabu. Will Ganduje himself enter plane with females on board?

China successfully launched a satellite into space a few hours ago.

It's not false

https://apnews.com/fd4113419276444eba1d2a46d5c29752/US-payment-of-$1.7-billion-to-Iran-made-entirely-in-cash

You guys are deaf, dumb and blind. Even fox news have acknowledged that the payments were not illegal, but rabid Trump worshippers never listens to facts.
The cash was money seized from Iran since the 1979 revolution

Before the 1979 revolution, Iran’s shah had paid $400 million for American military goods but, after he was overthrown, they were never delivered. The clerics who seized control demanded the money back, but the United States refused. The additional $1.3 billion is interest accumulated over 35 years. An initial reimbursement was released after the Iran deal was implemented and to help secure the release of American hostages.

garetz:
Obama gave billions in cash to the number one terrorist sponsor without Congressional authority!!

Let that sink in!!!

How can he get away with it?!!

US payment of $1.7 billion to Iran made entirely in cash

It's an illegal transaction and the Republican controlled house did not even have an impeachment hearing, not to talk of impeachment, and the Republican controlled senate did not remove Obama?

garetz:
Bellwether index is what the s&p 500 data is reflecting and I'll rather believe what CNBC, WSJ and Bloomberg are saying than believe someone who doesn't even know what the Bellwether index is. BTW, i never made any comparison between Trump and Obama, your TDS is making you see things

You are a clown I swear. Did CNBC, WSJ and Bloomberg claim that Trump's First 3 years posted superior figures than Obama's first 3 years in relative terms?

I never claimed to be a financial guru, so I had no idea of what bellwether index is, but a simple Google search will reveal your claim that s&p 500 index for the first 3 years of Trump is superior to Obama's is false.

igbesachick:
china is my enemy.

since you deny china's greatness, you are my comrade.

but i prefer not to have such an idiotic comrade.

Please how can you be Chinese and still be enemy of china? You can be enemy of the current government, but to be enemy of your country is crazy.
Maybe you are from Hong Kong, Tibet or Xinjiang, Uyghur.

garetz:
so CNBC is lying

Now you are shifting stadium and not just goal posts.

This was your claim;

garetz:
The S&P 500 has returned more than 50% since Trump was elected, more than double the 23% average market return of other presidents three years into their term

https://www.cnbc.com/amp/2019/12/26/trumps-stock-market-rally-is-far-outpacing-past-us-presidents.html

And I gave you proof that you lied, the s&p 500 did better under Obama, now you are showing links talking about Bellwether index (whatever that is) gaining more than 28% this year.

garetz:
The S&P 500 has returned more than 50% since Trump was elected, more than double the 23% average market return of other presidents three years into their term

https://www.cnbc.com/amp/2019/12/26/trumps-stock-market-rally-is-far-outpacing-past-us-presidents.html

Lies, lies and more lies. Trump supporters just like him are peddlers of lies.
Below is the historical data of S&P500 for the last 10 years.
When Obama was sworn in January 2009, S & P 500 averaged 948.5 points, 3 years later 2011, it was 1267.64, that's a 33% increase.

When Trump was sworn in January 2017, S & P 500 averaged 2449.08 points, this year 2019, it is 2909.54 . That's just an 18% increase. So who doubled who?

As I said, Obama beat Trump on every economic indice in relative (not absolute ) terms.

igbesachick:
who tells you china is great? the west media, in english.


is it human nature to sing praise to his enemy?

Who is your enemy and who mentioned China greatness? You translator is doing a horrible job, change translator software. It's making you talk off point.

That's true. Does it make sense that men and women are barred from entering the same Keke, but the driver can be male while carrying female passengers. It just doesn't make sense.

igbesachick:
you win, you know china better than a chinese knows his own country.

but, can you shut up?

You Chinese? Interesting. Are you full Chinese or half caste (half Nigeria, half Chinese)?

As a Chinese, which system of government do you propose will work well for a highly populated and vast country like China? Remember China has a very long political history to learn from.

Amujale:
Precisely, igbesachick ought to go and reeducate with regards history rather than relying heavily on malicious propaganda.

You are spot on with your analysis and i agree with you here.

I hate it when people impose their own personal biases on others. There is no one size fits all political system. What works for A might be a disaster for B.
Other advantages of the one party system is that it is more stable. In our own so called multi party democracy, a government official is elected in the middle of the year with a budget prepared and stolen by the previous government, by the time the new government settles down to even plan any programme, 2 to 3 years have passed by, the government abandons all programs and start stealing money for re election. In order words, very little progress can be accomplished in 8 years, before another set of politicians continue the cycle.
In China, the party holds its congress every 5 years and elects it's political officer holders based on performance. No money wasted and performance is actually criteria for political responsibility.

Multi party democracy is too acrimonious. While the ruling party struggles to build the country, the opposition struggles to sabotage the efforts of the rolling party. This ends up dividing the country along party, tribal, racial and economic lines. The country is almost always in a continuous state of political crisis. This is the situation in US, UK, Nigeria, israel and even France today.

China's one party system does not suffer such acrimonious political conflicts. All conflicts are settled within the party and never gets out.

igbesachick:
by the way,

genuine demo, flawed demo, hybrid , totalitarian, dictatorship.

china is totali, nigeria is hybrid, japan is genuine. north korea is dicta

get it?

How is Japan genuine demo, when it practices British style democracy, where the emperor is above the citizens. The government reports to the emperor.

igbesachick:
i know every bit of china

see each of my posts, they are detail oriented.

not a bit of propaganda emptiness

If you truly understand China as you claim, you will understand that China would fail under a multi party democratic American style model. The one party system has been working for them for over 70 years. True it has its flaws, but it brought them out of economic doldrums within 30 years.

Amujale:
Are you Chinese, have you suffered living in a one party system?

Looking at the world we live in today, democracy is an abject failure.

Currently, in the hands of the Chinese government, Communism is proving to be somewhat of a success.

Therefore, there is the need to device an immediate plan of action that includes exploring all options available to us.

Even if it involves scraping all foreign intellectual take on the ways of government, it really doesnt matter what type of government we settle for, as long as it is successfull, secure and consistent.

Don't mind him. China's one party structure has proven to be more effective that our useless so called multi party democracy. First of all it is far more cheaper to run. You don't spend billions of dollars every 4 years just to elect highly incompetent politicians. Money that can be used to improve the standard of living of the people.

Secondly, the system can never produce incompetent leaders like Buhari, Atiku, Jonathan, Aregbesola, etc, who have no vision or idea of how to administer a modern state. A senior political officer in China works his way up the ladder from local government party levels. Incompetent ones are thrown aside.

igbesachick:
the funny point is, chinese earn 8000 dollars per year, while japanese earn 39000 dollars, hong kongers 63000 dollars.

chinese are too successful to be rich.

no white people hate china, they just take it as another shithole asian country such thailand , cambodia. no whites give serious shiet to china

If China is such a shit hole country, how come China controls the world's consumer items. How come China is the second biggest economy in the world, threatening to overtake the US soon?

igbesachick:
are you a chinese? have you ever suffered living in a one party country?

you should feel happy and fortunate to be a citizen of a free country. If we are living in a free country, why is some people shouting "we want freedom" everyday in Nigeria.

that shithole called china, is synonymous to terrorism land.

china government=terrorism=freedom deprivation=fascism=in chinese they call 白色恐怖 white terror /wan blood terror

People living under Nigeria's multi party Democracy are living far worse than living under china's one party system.

What benefits is being a citizen of a "free country" over living in China?

You obviously don't know the meaning of terrorism. Search Google and tell me how many terrorist attacks has China ever had.

I even doubt he understands the difference between windmills and wind turbines. Wind vanes are used to grind (mill) grains or do other mechanical work, wind turbines are used to generate electricity.

There are no windmills in the US.

Sagay212:
Be honest with yourself about the religion that causes havoc. Everyone knows it's Islam. The Chinese know what they are doing. Their real intentions are against islam and the fear of terrorism thriving in their land.

The Chinese do not discriminate, they persecute both Christians and muslims. The problem is Christians are able to compromise more that muslims. Muslims do not compromise their beliefs at all and so the government see them more as threat.

Most Muslim countries with a sizeable Muslim population has terrorism issues.

The nicene council part 2 China style. Instead of emperor Constantine, we have chairman xi. Instead of Catholic bishops, we have both Christian and Muslim priests. Just like the nicene creed, once a creed is accepted, all others will be persecuted out of existence.

Dpharisee:
Christians in China don't carry out violent acts against the state, even the Catholic church had to reach a compromise with the communist Govt by appointing only Bishops approved by China from a list of Priests submitted from Rome to the Govt to be vetted. But there are some in the church leadership who don't approve of this approach leading to some level of division and dispute in the church.
There is still the underground church which faces persecution and not approved by the state, but they are not violent.

Muslims will not approve of this arrangement where only Govt vetted and approved Imams can administer mosques and lead the Ummah leading to continuing violent resistance. Some see it as attempt to dilute Islam.
China in turn forcefully send the resisting Muslims to reeducation camps where they are forced to either renounce Islam or accept the version the state see as non extreme and under state appointed Imams.

All in all, religious persecution is common in China and economic prosperity is not helping matters, because the country is advancing in all spheres without every citizen going to pray for development in churches and mosques like we do here.

The Chinese also think that giving total freedom to Christianity and Islam will lead to infiltration and destabilization by the West and Arabs led by America and Saudi Arabia working together.

You can't blame the Chinese, seeing the havoc caused by both Christianity and Islam in societies where they have taken root.

Religion creates a situation where adherents pledge allegiance to a religious leader (often a foreign one), than his home government. It's often creates a privileged priestly class that is often above the law.

What do Trump worshippers think of his comment on windmills?

Trump: "I never understood wind, I know windmills very much, I've studied them more than anybody...tremendous fumes, gases are spewing into the atmosphere, you know we have a world, the world is tiny compared to the universe.."

I want to hear how they would spin this or simply ignore it, as if it never happened.

To me I think he is on some strong shit, maybe drink or smoke.

I like your style and of debate, I wish posters can be as civil in presenting their point of view, instead of taking an adversary stance when others fail to agree with us, the world would indeed be better place.

Lush100:
I agree with lots of things you said.
See, I don't like Trumps manner of approach, his choice use of words , some of his his remarks about women but sir, i like his ability to see a tough goals and set out to achieve it. it takes someone who has trained his mind to do something like that especially in handling Iran, China and North Korea and to a lesser extent Russia and the Middle East within the same breath

You guys don't know Trump, I am sure 90% of his supporters only started knowing him the last few years before he declared for presidency. I have known him since the early 90's. I have a very close friend who loved Trump then and gave me his book to read. I even then disagreed with his philosophy of life as espoused by his book.

Trump's does not have any stance or position on any issue. He only says what people want to hear. He started out a democrat, then moved between independent and Republican, before settling for Republican. So you see his political views was very fluid. Trump was first strongly pro choice, then he switch to strongly pro life for the presidential campaign - https://www.google.com/amp/s/qz.com/1623437/trump-shifted-from-pro-choice-to-pro-life-as-he-planned-a-presidential-run/amp/

I really admire Trump, he is master of creating a persona that larger than life. I honestly have not seen other politician who commands so much control and adoration, and commands so much reverence by even his political party. He truly believes that if he committed murder in full glare of everyone, his supporters would still back him.

He is able to get everyone, including Forbes to believe he is a billionaire without any proof. He was able to have multiple extramarital affairs without any backlash. His Trump brand is just a brand, he sells the name "Trump hotel", it's difficult to know the real owners of his hotels and apartments.

There is a saying that it is easy to get to the top but very difficult to maintain being at the top.
America has a lot of debt because of unbalanced Trade deal with lots of it coming from China and to a lesser extent Europe, with China leveraging its technological prowness aided with low pricing or cost.

I do not see any other US (politician among those available) president willing to take "a bath " China in getting a fair deal. Sir, i give it to Trump.
Obama literally evaded trying to have a take on with China.

Trump's foreign policy is a disaster. Not that Obama's was much better, but Trump made things far worse.
Not that he does not have valid points in his various foreign policy views, but the way he is going about them have made worse an already bad situation.
Yes China has been cheating the world on trade and intellectual theft, but the way to go about it is not to go it alone. He should have built a coalition with EU, Canada and some other allies to squeeze China. The US can't do it alone. The trade war had been going on for a year now, and China has not bulged. In fact Trump is in a weaker position now and need to give concessions to China, because of the upcoming elections. Trump main selling point is the strong economy, the trade war is hiting both economies.

I never had any problem with Obama except in 2 areas which are not main stream.
The issue of trying to force same sex marriage is various countries including Nigeria using US aid as a leverage and giving Iran $150 M cash for concession of the nuclear program disarmament. That was not a sign of strength and his his negotiating ability was kinda low considering the high esteem Obama was held in.( Same sex marriage in US is what Obama should have concentrated on and leave other countries out of that equation.)
So i give it to Trump,

You guys do not understand the whole Iran deal. The deal was not done only with Obama's administration, but with other powers including Russia and China. Iran could not renege and the UN inspectors all confirm Iran was complying 100%. The 150 billion Obama paid Iran was not US money. It was Irans money seized after the 1979 revolution. Iran asked for it, and Obama gave it back. The deal was strictly to stop Iran developing nuclear weapons and it was effective. Trump would jump at the same deal if north Korea accept it.

Now north Korea has gone worse, they are still continuing to fire rockets and are preparing for a nuclear test.
