It’s been a while is an understatement.
Back on this app after years to talk med, tech, creativity, and the realities of figuring it all out. I’ll be dropping some updates over the next few days on what I’ve been doing in hibernation mode!
Let’s connect! 🩺🚀
I can never understand why some
People will sit down in one office far away from the hospital and be dictating how doctors should manage patients just because the said patients are registered under your HMO.
I sent a patient being evaluated for enteric fever to get a code approval for stool MCS and the HMO replied that I should treat the patient without investigation. This has happened so many times.
There was a time I requested for various investigations to screen for secondary causes of hypertension in a 19-year-old with stage 2 hypertension and these people replied that the investigations were irrelevant. Irrelevant? Who exactly are the people making these decisions?
Is this how we will continue to practice medicine in this country?
Even our rest comes from God
Remember this the next time you want to be lazy about spiritual disciplines under the guise of needing rest.
If God doesn't give rest, we won't have it, so let's labour unto His glory and not be slothful in the King's business.
When a boy wrote to C.S. Lewis, worried that he loved Aslan the lion more than he loved Jesus, Lewis told him something you would never expect...
Instead of saying the lion was just a character in a book, he told the boy he could not possibly love Aslan more than Jesus. Because Aslan is not a symbol for Christ: according to Lewis himself, Aslan IS Christ.
This is the thing most readers get wrong about Narnia. People call it an allegory, a tale where a lion stands in for Jesus the way a character might stand in for an idea.
Lewis rejected that completely...
In a letter he wrote: "If Aslan represented the immaterial Deity, he would be an allegorical figure." Instead, he explained, Aslan is the answer to a question: "What might Christ become like if there really were a world like Narnia, and He chose to be incarnate and die and rise again in that world as He actually has done in ours?"
The answer Lewis gave was a lion. And he explained exactly why: "Since Narnia is a world of Talking Beasts, I thought He would become a Talking Beast there, as He became a man here. I pictured Him becoming a lion," Lewis wrote, partly because the lion is the king of beasts, and partly because "Christ is called The Lion of Judah in the Bible."
Once you know this, the story of Narnia changes: the moment Aslan lays down his life on the Stone Table for a traitor, and rises again at dawn, is not like the story of Christ. To Lewis, it is that story, happening in another world. And it is why, in the final chapter of The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, Aslan tells the children this:
"I am in your world too. But there I have another name. You must learn to know me by that name. This was the very reason why you were brought to Narnia, that by knowing me here for a little, you may know me better there."
Everytime I watch declassified podcast by Apostle Femi Lazarus I just always have a list of names or history I still need to know!!!.. You will just understand the gravity of ignorance💔
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO PROF. ADE STEPHEN ALABI, HEAD, DEPARTMENT OF ANATOMY. 🎉
Today, we celebrate an exceptional teacher and a steadfast supporter of ILUMSA.
Dear Nigerians, I need you to help me get @MTNNG attention as every means we have tried has failed. Help me repost as many times as possible.
Six days ago, my household purchased MTN fibre X because the remote job my sister got requested for a fibre network and specifically running at 300mbps. This was a criteria for getting the job which was to start on Monday, 7th of September, 2026.
MTN sent an installer to my house and after installation, the guy confirmed it was working and running on 50mbps, we immediately corrected him that we paid for the premium plan, a hundred thousand naira, which is 300mbps, while the basic plan (50mbps) is 30 thousand naira.
He simply said, that's a back end problem, my job here is done.
Since Last week Saturday till now MTN has refused to do anything about it. We have called their care line over 300 times and have sent series of emails. We have sent several messages here on X per their request, yet they leave us hanging the moment we send the details they need with no tangible solution or response.
One week has gone out of a one month plan my sister has been unable to use. I beg MTN To either refund us, or fix this situation and the data must start counting from when it was fixed.
MTN at this point send your installer to come and take the router away, the same way you sent them to install it. @MTNNG@fccpcnigeria@NgComCommission
