No More Strike For Now - Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors

The Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors (NARD) has suspended its 10-day-old strike for two weeks to monitor the level of federal government’s compliance with the agreement reached.


The two weeks period is to afford the doctors enough time to further discuss with federal government to arrive at final solutions to the contentious issues.

The doctors would, however, resume the strike if the discussion with the government fails.

The national executive council of NARD took the decision at its meeting in Abuja on Wednesday night to appraise the implementation of its agreement with the government.

The chairman of NARD UCH chapter, Segun Olaopa, said “the decision was reached following appeals from the public that the doctors should give the federal government more time to meet their demands”.

Doctors had appealed to Nigerians to bear the situation as members of the association were pressing government to improve the healthcare delivery system in the country.

NARD embarked on a nationwide indefinite strike to press home a six-point demand.

The association had on September 6 laid out terms of settlement with the federal government after the two parties met to resolve the crisis.

The doctors are protesting sack of some of their colleagues, non-payment of “skipping’’ entitlement, non-inclusion in the IPPIS platform and non-payment of their salary arrears.

The federal government had agreed it will pay the arrears and commence the inclusion of NARD members on the IPPIS platform.

Strike Commenced From Friday - United Labour Congress threatens


The United Labour Congress (ULC) has threatened that workers in Nigeria would embark on an indefinite strike if the Federal Government failed to meet its demands by Friday (tomorrow).


The threat came barely two weeks after the Federal Ministry of Labour and Employment responded to the workers through a letter, which the ULC said “largely failed to adequately address the critical issues raised in our demands.”

The union issued the strike threat after an emergency meeting of its National Administrative Committee, which was held jointly with the National Strike Committee in Lagos.

In a statement signed by the ULC President, Joe Ajaero, the union urged Nigerians to take precaution and stock up necessities, saying, “The strike will be very effective as we hope to cripple all modes of transportation within the nation; ensure a total blackout nationwide; cut off petroleum product supplies; and disrupt banking operations, which will make life a bit more difficult for Nigerians.

We regret these consequences on all of us, but we hope that these measures will help us create a nation that is better governed for the benefits of Nigerian workers and Nigerian masses.”

Ajaero said that the strike had become necessary having earlier issued a 14-day ultimatum to the FG as a result of the decision of the Central Working Committee meeting of the congress on August 22, which expired on September 8, 2017.

He said that in view of the government’s rejection of the demands within the 14-day ultimatum, the ULC ordered an immediate issuance of a 7-day final strike notice, which would expire on Friday.

He added, “This course of action, though very painful to us at this time, is the only alternative available to us as we have exhausted all known peaceful processes towards an amicable resolution of the dispute.

“We, therefore, call on all genuine patriots to join hands in solidarity with us to urge the Federal Government and state governors to be kind enough to meet the demands of Nigerian workers and masses.”

The Demands
The demands of the union include the immediate payment of all arrears of salaries owed workers at all levels of government without exception.

Ajaero added that other demands were that “the Federal Government honours its 2009 agreement with university lecturers under the umbrella of ASUU quickly and commences negotiations with them on new issues so that our universities will re-open.

“The roads leading to all the petroleum refineries and depots nationwide be repaired by government to avoid the present carnage, wastage of products and properties on these roads.

“That the government should demand that the Federal Ministry of Labour and Employment set up a task force immediately to carry out factory inspections as most of our factories are death traps.”

The workers are also demanding an immediate review of the privatisation of the Power Holding Company of Nigeria, among others.

Confession of Cult members Who Sells Human Hands For N5,000

Two suspected cult members in Ogun State have confessed that they sell human hands for N5,000 each to raise funds for their operations.


The suspects - Oluwaseun Odueh, aka Cleff, and Wasiu Adejumo, aka Bomber - both members of the Eiye Confraternity, were arrested by operatives of the Nigeria Police Zonal Intervention Squad in the Ibogun area of the state.

The suspects, who were also accused of being robbers, were arrested with three herbalists, including a traditional ruler, who allegedly bought the hands of the victims.

The herbalists, Ifatona Akanni, aka Ajana Oro; Isiaka Ajani and Oko Musa, said they had bought seven hands from the cult members, adding that each was bought for N5,000.

Those killed by them were identified as one Tunde, who was beheaded at the Cherubim and Seraphim Church Railway Line, Ogba Ayo, Ijoko, in 2016, with his two hands cut off.

Also killed were one Lateef, Kehinde and Yinka, in the Ijoko area between 2016 and January 2017. The hands of the men were cut off.

The police said on May 28, 2017, three men were also killed at Candozo Hotel, Fadahunsi, Ijoko, around 8pm, while in June 2017, two people were killed at Ogba Ayo Junction and Agoro Junction, Ijoko, with their hands missing.

One of the suspected cult members, Odueh, said all victims were members of the Aiye Confraternity, a rival cult, adding that they were killed during reprisals.

He said their hands were sold to herbalists to raise funds for the activities of his gang.

He said, “Supremacy clashes between the cults started about six years ago in Ijoko. The Aiye cult killed our members, Godogodo, Fele, Callous and others. Each time they killed them, they cut off their hands. We had to retaliate by doing the same thing to them.
Initially, we were throwing away the body parts. But when we realised that we needed money for our activities, we decided to make enquiries on what we could do with the body parts. That was how we started cutting off their hands and selling them. I have been involved in the murder of four members of the rival cult.”

The 32-year-old said he became a cult member due to the oppression he suffered as an undergraduate of a university in Ogun State, adding that he joined the gang in his community when he finished from school.

The second suspect, Adejumo, who confessed to be an Internet fraudster (yahoo boy), said he was part of the squad that killed two members of Aiye cult he identified as Kehinde and Lekan Welder.

The 30-year-old said a fight between two leaders in the Ijoko area led to the increase in cult killings in the community.

We killed Kehinde and Lekan Welder because they killed our members and cut off their hands. They killed Fele (Sunday) and Callous, a final year student of the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta. They also killed Godogodo and Rati. We sell the hands to herbalists,” he added.

One of the herbalists, Musa, said he had bought three hands from the cult members, adding that he had paid N10,000 and was owing them N5,000 balance.

He said, “I am a herbalist. I also consult Ifa and Opele for my clients. I met these boys when they came to worship Ogun at my shrine and since then, they had sold only three hands to me; both dry and fresh. I use the hands for asiri bibo (fetish blessing). I bought each hand for N5,000. I gave them N10,000, and owed a balance of N5,000.

The second herbalist, Akanni, 53, said he had bought two hands from the men for the same purpose.

When Punch asked him how he knew the part was useful for the purpose and who his clients were, he parried the questions, saying the charm didn’t work.

The third herbalist, Ajani, who is the baale of Ososun village, in the Ifo Local Government Area of Ogun State, said the cult members introduced themselves to him as land speculators, adding that they later brought two hands which he bought for N10,000.

Zone 2 Police Public Relations Officer, SP Dolapo Badmos, said Odueh was the first to be arrested.

She said, “Odueh was arrested on August 23 by the ZIS team during a patrol at about 2pm in the Ibogun area of Ogun State. On interrogation, he confessed to belonging to the Eiye Confraternity and said he was also a member of an armed robbery gang. We subsequently arrested other members of the gang.

The police recovered three locally-made cut-to-size guns, seven live cartridges, and human parts processed into concoctions and powder for fetish use from the suspects.

“The Assistant Inspector-General of Police, Zone 2, Adamu Ibrahim, has ordered that the suspects should be arraigned in court.”

Reasons You Should Never Receive Phone Calls With Your Right Ear But Only With Your Left Ear


I'm sure you have heard about the fact that you should use only your left ear to answer phone calls for some reasons or maybe one reason (the hoax is all over the internet by the way).

According to some researchers, the Apollo Medical Team to be precise, your brain is closer to the right ear, so if you use the right ear to answer phone calls, then your brain will be more prone to radiations (remember they told us that radiation gave rats cancer the last time. Wow!!!). 

So, your favorite health blogger took his time to dig out some skeletons, to find the truth about which ear you should use to answer your phone calls, is it left or right?

Now, it makes more sense to answer phone calls with your left hand because your right hand could necessarily be busy, but that should not be a must. 

So, according to online and offline sources, you can answer your phones calls with any ear or hand you choose. 

The research done by the Apollo Medical Team did not carry any evidence that should make you panic in anyway.

What about radiation to my brain? 

Actually, you shouldn't be worried about that, instead you should be worrying about the phone you are using (if you permit me to say worrying). 

The image below shows radiation pattern in talking positions. At (a) 0.8 GHz, (b) 1.8 GHz with the right hand. At (c) 0.8 GHz, (d) 1.8GHz with the left hand. 

As you can there is no difference in radiation patterns even if you answer with your left ear or right ear or even if you put the phone on your head (Wait! that is not an option).

So, what you should be worried about. The phones you are using. And it is not the radiation you should be worried about, but getting the best signal. 

Here are some graphs I was able to dig out you should look into. 

Yea, you may not understand all that, well I didn't understand it all either. But here is what you should note. 

Some phone brands work better on the right side while others on the left side. So in case you are falling to get a good signal you might want to switch over. 

For example HTC Desire performs better on the right side for all band. iPhones depend on the frequencies for better performance, same goes for many phone brands like Sony, Samsung, Xiaomi and Nexus. 

Note: if you phone is less than 10% then the phone receives maximum radiation, you should be careful about the amount of radiation you absorb to reduce the risk of having health complications, so its better to charge it up or switch to another battery. 

So there you have it. A bit technical, but I hope I simplified it enough for you all.

Effective Ways To Have A Safely Driving In The Rain

Driving in the rain can be very stressful and dangerous because it will be very difficult to see the road and conditions may be terrible. Hence, you have to be extremely careful so that you do not get your car stuck in a ditch or involve in an auto-crash.


This is because the wetter the road, the more the accident. In line with this, Below are 6 useful tips for driving safely in the rain.

(1). Slow down  
Like earlier said the road condition worsens when it rains. As such, slow down no matter how late you are to your destination. This is safer because you are less likely to be involved in an accident if you slow down.

(2). Check your wipers 
Many Nigerian drivers do not check their wipers until it rains. This is really unsafe. The wiper is important as it helps you to get rid of water on the windshield. So, ensure that all your wipers are working and in good condition.

(3). Turn on your headlights 
It is not only in the night you turn on your headlights. You also need it when it rains to help improve visibility.

(4). Dry the brakes 
Wet roads mean wet brakes, and the four wheel discs on most cars can be coated with water just when you need them most. This can result in the malfunction of your car. Luckily, some cars automatically touch the pads to the rotors to remove water but you can do this too by gently touching the brakes after splashing through a wet spot.

(5). Don't charge into ditches at high speed 
Charging at high speed into ditches can get your car stuck, allow water to find its way into your engine and you can splash water on pedestrians. If your car gets stuck or water finds its way into your engine, you are on your because nobody will be ready to help except you will offer money. As for splashing water, Nigerians will simply reign curses on you.

(6). Inspect your tires 
You cannot say when it will rain but you can spot obvious signs it will. Check your tire to ensure that it is not overinflated. The rule is to ensure that the tire is in a good state so that it won't become slippery since the road is likely to be so when it rains.

Smart Ways To Start A Business When Your Account Is Empty


It might surprise you to to know that there are actually ways to start a business with little or no money. So, below are 4 smart ways to start a business when you have no  money to use..

(1). Adjust Your Business Model to Demand Fewer Needs
If you can start your business as a sole employee please do so, pending when you are able to raise enough money to employ other professionals. Also, save the cost of getting and maintaining an office space by working from home, if having an office space is not vital to getting your business up and running. In addition, try to make your company more service-oriented because this kind of business requires little or no financial investment; all you really need are your skills and you can immediately get started providing these services. When you start getting some money, you can use the extra revenue to then grow and establish your business.

(2). Get Friends and Family to Help
Tell your friends, family and even past colleagues about your business and get them to help spread word about your business; this can serve as free marketing and publicity for your business. Encourage as many of them as possible to share your posts about your business on their social media profiles, and to also introduce your brand to their professional contacts. This will help serve as a kind of grassroot marketing that will spread word about your company and introduce it to a larger audience.

(3). Avoid Unnecessary Expenses
Considering you are trying to start a business without money, you need to be as frugal as possible. Leverage on your relationships with people and try to get as much as you can for free, at least until you are able to start making some extra revenue to afford better for your business. Please note that as frugal as you are going to need to be, you should be careful not to let that compromise the quality of your services. This is why you really need to leverage on your business and even personal relationships, so you can get the help and professional input of these people for free (at least until you are able to make enough extra revenue to pay for their services).

(4). Ensure Your Payment Policy is Well Thought Out
This is the problem a lot of startups face; they don’t have a good payment policy. As a result, people take advantage of this weakness to either delay payments or avoid paying for the services all together. Avoid basing your payment policy on what you think your customers want or will be comfortable with, base it on what is going to make your business operate successfully. This is because, after all said and done, it’s not your payment policy that will keep people coming back for more, it’s the quality of your service. Therefore, you should not compromise your service quality and business operation, for an unfavorable payment policy.
