This is the world's fattest boy who weighs 192 kilos at the age of 10 and can eat a bag of Rice within 24hours
his parents are putting him on a crash diet because he's so overweight they can't find clothes to fit him This 10-year-old boy's daily diet comprises of five meals which consist of rice, fish, beef soup and a traditional soy patty.Technically,
this amount of food is enough to feed two adults. Hailing from Indonesia's West Java province, Arya Permana weighs 192kg, and is the world's fattest boy.
The young boy had to quit going to school because he gets out of breath after walking a few steps. Arya wears only a sarong because his parents no longer can find clothes that fit him.
He sleeps with his head leaned against a wall so that he is able to breathe easily but the posture has given him a permanent bruised forehead.
The obese kid often experiences shortness of breath. According to local reports, people have been travelling from nearby villages to view the boy dubbed "the world's fattest child".
During Ramadan, the 10-year- old even fasted for the first half of the day but had to discontinue this practice because of increasing stomach pains.
After the doctors warned that his extreme obesity is life-threatening, his parents have kept him on an emergency diet of brown rice. However his mother, Rokayah, was left confused when a doctor during a recent hospital check-up declared Arya was "healthy" She is clueless about the reason behind her son's recent weight gain. World's fattest kid:

•Lament lean food rations •No, govt provides N500 per corps member for feeding daily — NYSC
By Dayo Adesulu, Tare Youdeowei & Elizabeth Uwandu
Following the close of National Youth Service Corps, NYSC, camps yesterday across the nation, corps members spoke to Vanguard Learning, during the orientation, about the deplorable living conditions on camps, particularly temporary camps, and the lean food rations in both temporary and permanent camps. These camps accommodate, at each orientation, between 2,500 to 3,000 graduates.
Temporary camps refer to secondary schools that are used by NYSC as camp in the absence of an NYSC- owned compound for orientation purposes. Whenever orientation is to hold, the students of the school, always boarding schools, vacate the premises and squat in a nearby school. While this in itself is a questionable practice, because all sorts of ills can befall the students during this migration and squatting period, it would be tackled squarely on a latter date.
One would therefore wonder; NYSC was established in 1973, how long could it possibly take to establish permanent sites in the 36 states of the federation?
A corps member currently on camp in Anambra State, Ijeoma Philip, shared her experience in one of these temporary camps. “Anambra doesn’t have a permanent site yet. They use Progressive Secondary School in Umuinya-Oyi, LGA.
Agreement with the school
The school isn’t on holiday. I heard that when there is orientation, NYSC which has an agreement with the school, moves the students to a catholic school nearby. The conditions aren’t so bad though, it’s just a matter of management.
“The toilet area is sadly water-logged, as a result,people don’t like to go inside. The result is that the place is messier than should be. The toilet is pit latrine but we make do. The first two days, the water supply was bad but they eventually had the pumping machine fixed. They probably underestimated the number of persons that would come. The mattresses are old but are not bed bug-infested.”
Deplorable Conditions: A former corps member, Titi Bada, recounted her ordeal thus; “I served in Sokoto in 2013. The conditions there were horrible. They do not have a camp there, they use Government Technical College, Farfaru. When we first got there, I vehemently argued with my fellow corps members that the school was not inhabited by students before we got there. I took my stand based on the conditions we met there.
“The ceiling boards were all broken. There was no bunk in my block, we had to look for stones to suspend our mattresses on planks and other surfaces we could find. Two girls managed to get the semblance of a bunk, one was on top and the other at the bottom.
“Eventually, the top bunk collapsed on the lady at the bottom in the middle of the night. There was no bathroom. The entire dormitory area had just 4 pit toilets. If I was told, I wouldn’t have believed such conditions exist in modern day Nigeria. There was no water. The big reservoir had dirty water in it. Eventually, NYSC had to bring tanks that were filled once a day by tankers from outside the school.”
Permanent Camps: On the other hand, corps members in permanent camps have a fairer tale to tell. Taiye Odunuga, a Batch A Stream 2 corps member currently in orientation camp in Osun state, which has a permanent site, says life in camp is fine, save for the long queue at the tap for water. “I would rate the hostel average. The only problem is the long queue for water which is caused by poor water supply and a below service capacity water tank.”
Standard of hostels
Nearby Oyo State, Dare Sopade, also a Batch A stream 2 corps member, has nothing but wonderful tales. “Oyo State has its permanent site at Isehin, Ibadan, they just relocated here in 2014 I guess. Generally, everything is fine.
“The living condition here is one of the best in Nigeria, if I am not mistaken. The accommodation here meets the standard of hostels in federal universities. The rooms are spacious, well ventilated, we have a standby generator. However, for safety reasons, to avoid fire outbreaks, they removed all the sockets in the rooms; you know how boys can be. I believe this camp is the best in all the western states.”
Okolo Okus, also just leaving camp, curtly said; “I am currently in Benue State. It is a permanent camp situated in Tarka LGA. The hostels are above average because it is a new place. The hostels are not painted but you know Nigeria, they start things and they don’t finish.”
Stomach Infrastructure: As regards food rations, Okolo continued; “The food is above average, it is three square meals but the rations are small. They said the government gave them N500 to feed each corps member daily. So, N500 divided by three meals, that’s approximately N167 per meal, you can envisage the kind of meal you will get. That also means the quality is paltry like the amount.”
Meanwhile, Ijeoma Philip in Anambra said; “Sometimes the food is fine, other times it isn’t. It is the usual thing when cooking for so many people. I heard that the kitchen staff say food stuffs are in short supply, so the rations are small. The soups are surprisingly tasty, but that is characteristic with eastern Nigeria. The beef isn’t bigger than a finger though.”
Taiye Odunuga, lamenting the poor quality of food in Osun camp, said; “The standard of food and the quantity has made me and several of my colleagues rely on food joints in Mammy Market, a sales and service area within the camp, for feeding. The food is not impressive. I hardly go to the kitchen because it feels like a waste of time.”
In Oyo State’s camp, Dare Sopade complained; “Swallows are not really bad, but once the food they prepare has anything to do with tomatoes, the rations will be small. Jollof is also generally okay because it is prepared with tin tomatoes. Beef is reasonable because they seem not to lack beef in these parts. The fish is always very small. It is not for satisfaction, it is just to have something in the stomach. After the meal you can top up with one of the N50 sausage rolls.”
When in Sokoto, Titi Bada recalled; “The food rations were very small till we started cooking for ourselves, platoon by platoon. We were promised cows by dignitaries but it did not report in the food, we were still given pieces of meat that were no bigger than seasoning cubes. Food stuffs then weren’t so expensive but they were still not generous with the food rations. When we began to cook for ourselves, platoon by platoon, the rations improved.”
NYSC responds: Faulting the allegations of corps members, Director, Public Relations, NYSC, Mrs. Bose Aderibigbe, said the Director General, NYSC, Brigadier General Sule Kazaure, goes to the kitchen to see what corps members eat. “I don’t think they are telling you the truth, the new DG of NYSC is on orientation tour. He has been to almost 23 states, he goes to the kitchen and there is no complain whatsoever.
Tasting the food
Because he is fasting he cannot taste the food. In the stream one, he was tasting the food. I have been tasting the food too, because I have been on his entourage.
‘’The Federal Government gives us N500 to feed them per day. You know the cost of living today. There has been no increase in their feeding allowance. They take chicken and egg, what else do they want?
‘’The DG checks their toilet, in male and female hostels, to see how clean they are. He goes to the clinic to check if there are corps members who are sick, whether they are being treated correctly or being given the right drugs.’
“We were in Plateau State yesterday (Monday), we were in Bauchi on Sunday, on Saturday we were in Jigawa. On Thursday we were in Kastina. The other time, we were in Sokoto. We have been to Akwa Ibom, Cross river , Abia, Imo, Ebonyi, Ondo, Ekiti, Kogi and Osun states; the claims are not true.” http://www.vanguardngr.com/2016/06/nysc-members-bemoan-living-conditions-camps/ Photo: A plate of rice with a barely visible piece of fish, served in the NYSC camp in one of the states in the South-West.

Education › ASUU Rejects FG's Scrapping Of Post-UTME (See Why) by ADEWUMIMichael(op): 4:06am On Jun 30, 2016 |
The Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, on Wednesday, kicked against the Federal Government’s directive for tertiary institutions to scrap the Post-Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination, Post-UTME, for admission of candidates for the 2016/2017 academic session, saying the quality of tertiary education in the country could improve if the institutions are allowed to regulate their students admission process.
ASUU President, Comrade Biodun Ogunyemi, said such freedom would enhance the quality of education.
Recall that at a recent joint policy meeting to decide the cut off mark for students seeking admission into the universities, the government announced the scrapping of post-unified tertiary matriculation examination (UTME).
The Post UTME is the second stage of screening usually conducted by universities for the final selection of candidates qualified for admission for an academic session.
Minister of Education, Malam Adamu Adamu had threatened to sanction any university or tertiary institution found conducting examinations under any guise to admit students.
He further directed tertiary institutions that had collected money from candidates for such purposes to immediately refund it or face appropriate sanctions.
The ASUU boss told NAN that such directive encroached on the autonomy of the institutions.
“I think government should give these institutions the chance to regulate themselves,” he said.
“They should decide for themselves, the process they dim fit to admit their students. The Senate of universities for example, should decide on the process they want to use in selecting candidates.
“We do not think it’s right for government to decide the method of screening of the candidates, indeed, we want to attain some level of sanity and quality in the system.”
The unionist added that government could only come into the process by putting in place the necessary guidelines as part of their oversight functions.
According to him, it may not also be easy for institutions that had already collected money for the conduct of the post-UTME or screening in whatever guise to refund such money.
He added that this was because such money could have been diverted to other purposes.
Ogunyemi noted that most universities were under-funded and therefore, might have used some of the money to attend to urgent needs of the institution.
“Some of the arguments raised in this entire episode is that universities or tertiary institutions were using the conduct of such examination to make money,” he said.
“But the truth is, these institutions are poorly funded. If universities for example are properly funded, will the vice-chancellors be looking for other means of making money?
“In the last seven months, university workers have been receiving incomplete salaries, that is, the disbursement of funds for payment of salaries has always been inadequate.
“When situations like this arise, the managements will not be left with any choice than to look inwards and seek means of meeting such needs.
“And one of such strategies is by conducting such examination.”
Ogunyemi noted that the state universities were worst hit for many of them had yet to receive subvention in the last one year.
“Actually we in ASUU frown at extortion of any type from students or candidates but the government too should be alive to its responsibilities by providing the enabling environment that will aid teaching, leaning and research.” www.vanguardngr.com/2016/06/ASUU-kicks-against-fgs-scrapping-of-post-utme/

Education › Association Of Vcs Demands Autonomy In Deciding Admission Modalities by ADEWUMIMichael(op): 3:49am On Jun 30, 2016 |
The Secretary General of Association of Vice- Chancellors of State-Owned Universities, Michael Faborede has appealed to the Federal Government to allow the senate of the different tertiary institution in the country to prescribe modalities for admission. He made this call during the 4th Biennial Conference on the Committee of Pro- Chancellors of State-Owned Universities in Nigeria held at the Tai Solarin University of Education, Ijebu-Ode, Ogun State. According to him, the federal government should be careful in making pronouncements on educational matters that would affect the states and private universities. He further called on the pro-chancellors to support vice-chancellors in their effort towards building a credible university system https://www.gltrends.com/association-of-vcs-demands-autonomy-in-deciding-admission-modalities/

RadicallyBlunt: Why not. D bible says "curse without reason shall not come". D reverse is also true..if u give a curse a reason to come, it will. If a parent is playing his/her role over d child as he/she should, d curse has no reason to manifest but if d parent isn't treating the child as he/she should(maltreating), then you have given d curse a reason to act. If children's prayer over their parents can come to pass, how much more a curse that's even fast-acting than prayers
We often make mistakes that its only those in authority that have the ability to curse subbordinates. A wife curse over her husband..who is in authority over her can come to pass let alone chldren that God listens to more thanks a lot bro.... Jah bless uuu |

I have been wondering something in my whole life ,

foolinlove: This wat u need to do:
1. Break it off respectfully (see my thread How to break up with someone). You haven't been respectful so far, you've been ignoring her amd lying to her. This drives some women crazy. So just break it off. RESPECTFULLY. Everyone deserves respect, even crazy girls.
2. Report her to family. If she's suicidal she needs to be monitored. Not by you. By her family. Explain what happened precisely - that you broke it off and she threatened to end her own life. Say you dont want contact with her and they should watch her.
3. Practise no contact rule (see my thread) Do it to cure her obsession, not yours. She will get better at living without u as each day passes. Soon u won't hear from her at all.
4. This is not ur fault. She's obsessed. If she gon kill herself, you didn't tell her to kill herself. God will be watching over her and so will her family. You are not obliged to stay in relationship due to threats and emotional terrorism. Especially when u dont love her. thanks I will try |
