Lagos 11th? , dis is thrash

u didn't see where the op kept emphasizing that the list is not in any particular order

ideykwum:
There is no context that justified what the Oba said or did! I'm not Igbo, but I know when bullshit hits the fan! Let's not defend the indefensible!

now there is no such thing as context? Ok I hear u

ideykwum:
Mr. Einstein, a description meant to be offensive is not an insult I rest my case! This is a case of stark lunacy!!

Just so you know, the meaning of a word depends on the context in which it is used. If you didn't have your head in the clouds during your JS2 class, you'd have known this! Stop brandishing dictionaries, learn both nominal and contextual meanings!

hmmmm, so did the igbos consider these ur "contextual" meanings b4 they started throwing their tantrum at the Oba of lagos while the ndigbo chiefs present at the meeting wt the Oba where laughing and applauding him??

Professor Wole Soyinka has released a statement denying reports that he trashed the Igbos during his lecture at Harvard University last week. Soyinka was quoted to have said 'the Igbos voted based on their stomach and suffer from incurable money mindedness'. The Nobel Laureate says he never made a statement like that and anyone who believes he did is a m.oron His statement below...
"I have just read a statement attributed to me on something called The Cable, a news outlet, evidently one of the Internet infestations. My lecture at the Hutchins Centre, Harvard University, was video recorded. Anyone who believes what I am alleged to have said must be a m.oron – repeat, a m.oron. It is demeaning, sickening and boring to have to deal with these cowards who cannot fight their own battles but must fasten their imbecilic pronouncements on others. Only the mentally retarded will credit this comment attributed to me regarding the Ndigbo voting pattern in the last elections. I strongly suspect the author of this despicable concoction, and may make a further statement, once the source is verified.” the statement read

Oildichotomy:
What's the idea behind such depictions ?

Is it to confirm the barbarian and fetish stereotype of the African by the west or for some temporary awe by arts enthusiast.

The world is moving ahead with science that can be empirically evaluated and proved , and we are here beholding some "awe" of Orishas and Sango which exist in the metaphysical mind of some tiny ifa worshippers.

Africans sha !

ur submission would remain nonsensical until I read ur opinion on the Middle East mythology

seunfly:
Oboy!!!!! That name go fear you ooooo, you will know he is real traditional man. Esugbayi = Adoration to Satan or Satan has respect.

ur assertion shows u REALY do not understand the yoruba tradition and spirituality. Esu isn't in anyway thesame as satan. Mythology or reality , they are different entity

CHM11:
Your paragraphs totally contradict each other. One moment you are tribalistic, the other moment you are saying we are all human beings. I am not yoruba, I'm from Delta and based in Lagos. You want to know what pained the Oba?

Igbos said they will one day produce the governor of Lagos, they even wanted to run for vice in 2015.
They called Lagos a 'no man's land' that yorubas are claiming it.
They said Lagos is nothing but a colonial settlement.

Sincerely in your God mind, answer this : Will the people in South east Nigeria take this in their state from any other tribe? Even anambra self won't take it from other igbos.

And who told you the igbos are the most hardworking? What does hardworking mean to you?
Don't you think it means something else to me?
You might prefer to carry stones and break rocks with a sledge and call it hard work while I prefer to sit down for hours doing research and creating a cure for Ebola, that could be hardwork to me.

Lagos belongs to the Yorubas first before another Nigerian. If foreigners from Cotonou and Togo come to attack people in Lagos, the Yorubas will get up first to defend their home. When they can't subdue the intruders then Nigerians will join to help them.

Igbos should just learn to be careful with their utterances as regards Lagos. What you will not allow in your own home, do not do it in another persons home.

Lagos became the capital of Nigeria, because it is Lagos, Yoruba Land and it has been a trade centre even before the british took over. I think calabar used to be a capital too, so why is calabar not like Lagos?...

Respect your host and do not cause problems with your utterances.

the most sensible write up have read on any forum in the last 2yrs!!!

https://www.students.com.ng/list-of-best-10-universities-of-medicine-in-nigeria/





Google is always ur friend!

Just type the top 10 medical schools in Nigeria. Goodluck

oh I see . So u referred me to a website where a student posted his or her own opinion . U very funny

Crispels:
Just goggle it and stop being a jerk! LASUCOM Ikeja has the best facilities you can ever imagine, Even the medical students hostels are 5Star hostels, Stop being delusional!

Just goggle it, Goodluck!

I just searched the internet and there is no such thing as lasu bein one of the top 10 med school in Nigeria . Kindly post the address of the site where u found this ur bare face lie. How on earth could a university whose medical residency training has been suspended for over 3yrs for political reasons be one of the 1st ten in ngr. If indeed there is lasu amongst top 10 , then medical training is finish in that country . By d way, it's google not goggle !!!

Crispels:
LASU presently has all their courses accredited including law,medicine and even their engineering programmes!
Just goggle the top 10 unis to study law and medicine in Nigeria and lasu will surely be there!

Am not in support of Fashola in lagos due to some reasons but you view on lasu is myopic,jaundiced,archaic and irrational!

I can list over 5major projects going on in lasu main campus now and he(fashola) should have even commissioned the school campus radio,the massive science complex,the twin law complex, etc last week if not for the elections.

All the best bro!

LASU amongst the top 10 uni in Nigeria to study medicine? U definitely joking on that one! Presently fashola govt has killed medical education in lagos because of some personal vandetta he and his boss have always had wt the drs . Where was fashola when col marwa started medical school in lagos?? Go to lasuth and see the decay for urself. 1st ten ko, 1st ten ni

kettykin:
Enugu might be older than most states presently but when compared with its age mates, kaduna, ibadan, Benin,Enugu seems to be doing better than any of them.

Enugu "age mate" wt IBADAN? Pls do u mind elaborating ?

@queensmith, pls do explain to me y this no work and no pay thing seem to have only been applied to d lag drs but never to d judiciary workers Again , is there no law in Nigeria that stipulates how long govt could employ workers as casual staffs b4 compulsorily regularising d said casual employment Also we learnt that d governor refused to meet wt the NATIONAL president of the NMA who flew into lagos from abj wt a view to averting d dr strike. My question is if fashola"s father was lyin critically Ill in a lagos hospital at the time do u think he still would Hv declined meetin wt d drs??

@queensmith,

yetseyi:
Hehehe the governor really has nothing to do with this.
Pure internal politics the VC really had it coming and LASU staff and students are always radical in their approach to things. Has anybody ever reasoned why both staff and students are against this VC. But then it serves the staff right, they were against prof Hussein the man who transformed LASU this one came in and is worse.

Most times people do not know what they have until they lose it, the greatest mistake they ever made was to 'chase' prof hussein.

This mans tenure has had too much scandals first it was students now its staff.

i hear u @ " the governor realy has nothing to do with this" so u mean it is the VC that is withholding the LASU worker"s unpaid arrears abi...SMH

Dee60:
the LASU brand keeps being terribly diminished...............................

is it only the LASU brand? Even the LASUTH brand has dimmished far more. Imagine a state governor refusing to meet d NMA national president that flew in from Abuja to see him in order to avert the planned drs strike and he declined meetin wt him. If fashola"s father was lyin critically ill in a lagos hospital would he have declined meetin wt the doctors. This there ways of settling personal vendetta plus there ego would gradualy lead to APC downfall in lagos if care is not taken

@ op the title should ideally read "the richest woman in the world" that's what funke alakija is. She beat Oprah to that long time ago

chrisbaba1:
For the tribalist, id say there you go, an hausa making waves.....

I STILL CANNOT GET OVER THE STATEMENT MADE BY ONE IGBO guy on this forum that said "Abokis are meant to guard my gate and shine my shoes....." It just hurts to see hear people talk like that about others.......

Anyway, bigups to the awesome lady.....

she is of yoruba heritage not Hausa .(doesn't matter tho , d main thin is she has a nigerian blood in her) Check her family youtube videos

Redoil:
Are they sick

who is sick? Is it d LASG that is employing medical drs as casual staffs for over 4yrs now, suspended residency training for over 3yrs all in some ego drivin trip? Or is it the drs that Hv over the last 6mth sought d intervention of both political and medical elders in lagos without any positive response from govt. ??

Samgreguc:
There is a course that is of industrial relevance. What do you say about that?

when they are merged. The ones that are "industrially relevant " would face it's relevance rather than seekin unecessary relevance where there REALY exist non. The plain advantage of combining this councils is that excesses and conflicting directives given by these individual councils will be checked. Imagin MLSCN last year sent directives to each nigerian university to open a faculty for MLS without regard for NUC!!! Isn't that preposterous ?

Waow!!! What an interesting topic and intelligent discourse. Thank you all I will continue following the conversation

Health workers under the aegis of the Joint Health Sector Union at the Lagos University Teaching Hospital, Idi- Araba, protested against delay in the implementation of their agreement with the Federal Government on Tuesday.
The health workers began chanting several songs on the hospital’s premises while carrying placards with inscriptions such as, ‘FG save the health sector from collapse,’ ‘FG must implement its agreements.’
The aggrieved workers who were mostly nurses, pharmacists, record officers and laboratory scientists accused the Federal Government of not prioritising their needs due to the upcoming February elections in the country.
According to the Chairman, LUTH Chapter of the National Association of Medical Laboratory Scientists, Mr. Adefemi Adegoke, the Federal Government has not met with JOHESU this year for a dialogue.
Adegoke said, “The last meeting JOHESU had with the Federal Government was on December 7, and they asked for two weeks for them to generate circulars to the appropriate agencies to ensure that the agreements are implemented.
“Till now, we have not heard from them. We know the President, Dr. Goodluck Jonathan, is campaigning ahead of the elections, but government must know that lives that are being lost in public hospitals each day due to the two months of the strike are more important than votes.”
Speaking on behalf of the nurses, the Chairman, LUTH Chapter of National Association of Nigeria Nurses and Midwives, Mr. Olugbenga Ajala, warned that if labour disputes, which has led to the breakdown of health services in about 50 federal health institutions in the country are not addressed, the Federal Government may meet a collapsed sector after the February elections.

Ajala said, “We are asking that they promote our members who have been stagnated for 14 years on a level. We are asking that health workers wage structure be reviewed. We cannot be rubbished by any group in this sector because we form more than 70 per cent of the workforce in the health sector.
“We are asking that the Federal Government address needless deaths in its hospitals and put an end to this strike before the elections.”
Members of JOHESU embarked on an indefinite strike on October 16 to protest against the non-implementation of collective bargain agreement and Memorandum of Understanding between the union and the Federal Government and the non-implementation of the 2010 judgment of National Industrial Court of Nigeria.
Other demands include the delay in appointing some of their members as consultants and failure to promote health workers on CONHESS 14 to 15.

The Enugu State branch of the Joint Health Workers Union of Nigeria (JOHESU), has suspended its two month old strike.

The Chairman of the union, Chief Mathias Okonkwo, announced this at the end of its congress in Enugu on Friday.

Okonkwo said the suspension followed the outcome of a meeting the leaders of the union held with Gov. Sullivan Chime of Enugu State on Thursday.

The chairman said the governor promised to look into the implementation of the consolidated health workers salary structure.

He directed all workers to resume work on Monday.

Members of the union, including the Chairman of the Medical and Health Workers Union of Nigeria (MHWUN), Comrade Maurice Eze, expressed hope that the government would keep to the agreement.

Members of JOHESU include the Nigeria Union of Allied Health Professionals, MHWUN and National Association of Nurses and Midwives Source .http://aitonline.tv/post-johesu_suspends_2_month_old_strike_in_enugu

Whether Jonathan wins or not the comitee recommendation is likely gona be adopted

Listen kid, It is obvious you are still an undergraduate struggling to get out, one wonders how a Faculty of MLS affects your MBBS grades. Leave health politics for the Professionals on ground and concentrate on your grades. Just an advice.

ok would not trade insults wt u it's not my thing. The point is that even the excesses of this laboratory council underlies the reason y most of these regulatory bodies should be combined or even outlawed . Bms is an integral part of medicine. Infact it is exactly what makes medicine; it is the foundation. because the forefathers of medicine felt the workload for medicine was enormous hence the birth of this allied health courses. Now u are suggesting that those basic medical science be usurped from medicine and then bcom a part of another faculty hence it would b like a "borrowed" course for medical students!!! Damn. Do u even know u cannot pass a surgical primary exam if u don't know all this BMS courses including what constitute MLS? Durin my residency days u had to refer back to ur BMS else u won't pass .now u jokers want some part of that BMS to either b duplicated or b moved out of college of medicine . Courses that make up MLS is not exclusive to medical lab tech student it is also a part of medicine.,if u give a whole faculty to MLS y not do thesame to anatomy, biochemistry, nursing ?? I am done exchanging text wt u . Enjoy the rest of the day am out of here!

There is no conspiracy theory to formulate, these are pure verifiable facts, it seems you are still a student, and did not expect to see this. Go make your findings yourself. The Pathologists are trying to be judges in their own case. It is enough to nullify that recommendation. At the end of all, we are subject to the rule of law.

And for those who are thinking of scrapping Faculties of Medical Laboratory Science citing International best practice. University of Minnesota in the united states has a Faculty of Medical laboratory Science that has been up and running since 1923. Nigeria will not be different.

http://cahp.umn.edu/mls

lol....so we should Hv a whole faculty just for MLS? Go to that university of Minnesota that u cited and go and complete ur studies there.....joker!!!

Sctests:
On the anomalous recommendation by the Yayale commitee that Pathologists should head the lab while the Medical Lab Scientist head is made the Technical Director. A member of the Dr Yayale's team is the Director of Pathcare laboratory, owned by Pathologists who have been dragged to court by the Medical Laboratory Council for disregarding Medical Lab council federal laws. That pathologist influenced that recommendation and is trying to be judge in their own case. What they couldn't get through the courtroom, they want to smuggle through the backdoor. It won't work.

isnt it the same yayale commitee findings u lots where clamourin for??Now that what's obtained in sane climes Hv been thrown at u by that same commitee, you are here formulating a conspiracy theory of ur own....continue in ur delusion!!!
