Thandiubani:

Nigerian musician, Burna Boy has warned his fans against jumping on stage and grabbing him while he's performing.

He warned that he knows that it is out of love, but sometimes he might misjudge it and do something crazy.

In his words: “I know say na love, the love fit enter your body you go want jump on stage and things like that. It took me a long while to get used to it because I don’t know your intention, I no know whether I don do you something before so I fit just enter you normally. But now we don dey understand say na love but please let’s try our best to not startle me too much so I don’t do something crazy.”

This is how I handled my oily face from being baptized with pimples.

1. Stop using hair cream, especially the oily ones. When you walk under the sun or the place get hot, your hair cream liquify, settles on your scalp and then continue their journey into your face skin.

2. Whenever you’re bathing do not use sponge on your face. Use your hands to wash your face with your soap.

3. Always put powder on your face and have a small one in your pocket. During the day, whenever your face get oily, wipe it with clean handkerchief then apply powder. At night, before going to bed, wash your face with water and soap, then apply a lot of powder on your face until you look like ojuju.

4. If you have a pimple, DON’T burst it and don’t touch it. Apply close up (or any other toothpaste) on it before you sleep. Or just leave it like that.

5. Don’t over wash your face or apply cream or soap that will dry your face. Having some oil on your face skin is healthy for the skin.

6. Eat healthy, reduce your intake of oily food. Especially those fries.

7. Eat fruits

Idamond:

William Kaelin, Peter Ratcliffe and Gregg Semenza have been awarded the Nobel Prize for Medicine for their discovery of how cells sense and adapt to oxygen availability.


US-born scientists William Kaelin and Gregg Semenza, along with British scientist Peter Ratcliffe, have won this year's Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine for their discoveries of how cells sense and adapt to the availability of oxygen, Sweden's Karolinska Institute announced on Monday.

"The seminal discoveries by this year's Nobel laureates revealed the mechanism for one of life's most essential adaptive processes," the Nobel Assembly said.
Their research, the institute added, "paved the way for promising new strategies to fight anemia, cancer and many other diseases."

In announcing the prize, Thomas Perlmann, the secretary of the Nobel Committee at the Karolinska Institute, said the work by this year's laureates has "greatly expanded our knowledge of how physiological response makes life possible."



Monday's announcement is the 110th time the prize in this category has been awarded since 1901.
Looking ahead
Medicine is the first of the Nobel Prizes awarded each year.
On Tuesday, the prize for physics is awarded, followed by chemistry on Wednesday.
The 2018 and 2019 prizes for literature will be announced on Thursday. For the first time in 70 years, last year's award was postponed as the institution found itself without a quorum to decide the winner.


On Friday, the scene moves to Oslo, Norway, where the 2019 Nobel Peace Prize will be announced.


Climate activist Greta Thunberg has been tipped as a possible winner of this year's peace prize.
The 2019 Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel will be announced on October 14.
The prizes in each category carry a purse of 9 million kroner ($918,00, €813,151) for each full Nobel award, a gold medal and a diploma. The medals will be presented at a ceremony on December 10, the anniversary of Alfred Nobel's death in 1896.

I’m not in support of AKA’s silence but how many of our Nigerian celebrities have spoken up against these attacks.

I respect you.
More grease to your elbow.

Onnasucs1:
Every single day I visit the business section here on nairaland, It's either I find the crew who have money but don't have a business idea or I find those with business idea but lack money.

Whatever crew you are, please never start up a business if you're not dogged. That business idea might appear rossy in your brain until you start it up in the real world.

I started up a business barely a month ago and I'm almost loosing my mind. Is it the sleepless nights(sometimes working from 1am-7am) I'm going to talk about or the failed projects or the rude customers or the unnecessary but compulsory expensis or the pressure to give out the best at all times or the uncertainties.?

Hehehe...Because of business, I am now a professional Liar. Lord have mercy!

Now I know why most businesses don't last long. Not everyone is willing to go through the stress.

I now respect Dangote, Otedola, Adenuga, Jim ovia, Tony Elemelu...they are many

Your business will break your heart so many times. (I'm heartbroken at the moment)

Please if you're not dogged, don't think of starting up a business.


If you have started one, never back down. If it gets tough, you too get tough. In the end, you'll succeed.


I have made up my mind to continue to press on. No going back



My respect goes out to all business people.
