Health is wealth

As part of my commitment to encouraging a conducive learning environment and quality education of our people, I commissioned and handed over an academic block, which I built, to Maurid College of Nursing Science, Mbiaso, Nsit Ibom local government area, during its maiden matriculation ceremony of 300 students, where I served as chairman on the occasion, yesterday.

I also promised to install solar-powered lightings around the institution's premises to ensure security of the students and property at night.

I used the opportunity to charge the prospective healthcare professionals to focus on their studies, so that upon graduation, they will fill the manpower gap created in the health sector by migration of other professionals for greener pastures.

Part of my address to them reads; "Your journey to becoming healthcare professionals is a call to service and humanity. This is further buttressed in the popular maxim that "health is wealth." This is in line with Harvey S. Firestone's philosophy that "the growth and development of people is the highest calling of leadership."

"This quote has consistently guided my life and activities both in private and public service. It is the propelling force behind my mega empowerment, scholarship, bursary, skill acquisition, facilitation of jobs in strategic Federal Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) and foreign trainings to Akwa Ibom people."

"Also, the newly completed edifice, which shall be commissioned and donated to the institution today, is my modest effort to encourage this massive investment and, most especially, to ensure you get a conducive learning environment."

"These efforts are aimed at raising Akwa Ibom men and women who are stable enough to compete favourably with their counterparts globally."

Worthy of commendation is the Chairman of Maurid Group of Schools, Dr. Godwin Umontuen, for his foresight and investment in education, and for being a true patriot who cares about the development of the state and country.

His massive investment is interwoven with love and patriotism for the country at the centre. It is selfless, with clear intention to train and equip health professionals needed to provide healthcare services for mankind.

Happy Birthday, Mr President!

On this special day, I celebrate not just your birth but your lifelong dedication to transformative leadership, service, and the progress of Nigeria.

May this new year of your life bring you divine wisdom, good health, and renewed strength as you steer Nigeria toward greater heights.

Wishing you a joyous birthday filled with, happiness, and the love of the nation you serve.

Happy Birthday, Mr. President!

Long life, good health, and continued success!

"Breaking the Silence: Let's talk Mental Health at Etoc today! Join the conversation and let's support each other's well-being #MentalHealthMatters

ADDICTION is Bad!!!

When one is addicted, they can do anything atall to get that thing they want! These Items were removed from the GI tract (gastrointestinal tract)of an Opiate Addict (This patient was addicted to pain medication ).

He deliberately swallowed these instruments so he could be brought to the hospital and be given some Morphines (a type of Pain medication ).

So, a surgery was done to remove the instruments as seen above 👆🏻 (scissors, razor, nail clipper etc)
This case is not rare a lot of patients who are addicted to drugs do this just so they can get a dose of that medication.

When you use drugs a lot, overtime you will notice your body growing resistance to the medication and you think taking more of it will do the work… that’s you getting ADDICTED.

This wasn’t the first time this patient swallowed an object, the first time he swallowed a full set of tiles yes! He broke the tiles into smaller portions and swallowed it. 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

Patient is doing well.

WIFEOFA NOBLEMAN.
