sometimes I used to wonder is there no Muslims in southern part of the country? it really pains to see people rushing to conclusion without even knowing what they are discussing about. There is sharia law in all our universities. In the north and some parts of yoruba land , there are cases that the constitutional courts cannot provide justice. So giving sharia courts powwer doesn't mean Islamising naija. 1 Like 1 Share |

Health / Snoring: Causes, Remedies And Treatment by amsad19(m): 3:28pm On Mar 29, 2016 |
Snoring is noisy breathing during sleep caused by vibrating tissue in the upper airway. It is a common problem caused by airway resistance and affects nearly all of the population at some time during their lives. Those who are obese, smoke, drink alcohol, are male or have frequent nasal congestion are more prone to habitual snoring. Snoring can be harmless or it can be a sign of a serious medical disorder known as Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). Any individual who snores should consult with a medical or dental provider to help determine both the underlying cause and the appropriate interventions necessary to stop the snoring. Causes And Treatment Of Snoring Snoring is a common condition that can also affect sleeping partners and other members of the household. When you are awake, the tissues in the throat and upper airway are open for easy air intake to the lungs. During sleep, the soft tissues and tongue relax, and can partially block the airway. If the air coming in and out of the airway meets enough resistance, snoring can occur. Depending on the cause, there are several things that can be done to stop snoring. The following is a list of different ways in which snoring can be treated and potentially reduced. Each tip also provides further information about the causes of snoring. Avoid alcohol and sedating medications: Drugs that are depressants or sedatives relax muscles, causing them to collapse. Alcohol should be avoided for at least four hours prior to sleep and any prescription or over-the-counter sleep aids should be taken under the guidance of a health care professional. Relieve nasal obstruction: Nasal strips, corticosteroid and moisturizing nasal sprays, antihistamines and a room humidifier can help reduce the nasal inflammation and obstruction that leads to snoring. Change sleep positions: Snoring is more common when sleeping on your back as the relaxed tongue is more likely to block the airway. Sleeping on your side, elevating the head of the bed a few inches, or using a “snore pillow” to improve neck position can be tried. Sewing a tennis ball or other soft object in the back of a sleep shirt might help prevent rolling over to the back sleeping position. Lose weight: Excessive fat tissue can surround and narrow the airway, causing snoring from the obstructed airflow. Oral appliance: A custom-fitted oral appliance (similar to a retainer or mouth guard) helps keep the airway open by moving the tongue and jaw slightly forward. Appliances are made by a specially trained sleep medicine dentist. Throat (oropharyngeal) exercises; Strengthening weak, flappy muscles in the neck and throat with exercises can help them from collapsing during sleep. Like any exercise, this needs to be a consistently practiced activity to see any results. Strive to practice the 10 exercises below at least 30 minutes daily for a minimum of 3 months. Exercises involving the tongue can help strengthen weak neck and throat muscles. Stick your tongue as far out of your mouth as possible, and then move it side to side and up and down without curling the tongue. Move the jaw up and down in a chewing motion for a minute or two at a time. This should be done without anything in your mouth. Say each vowel over and over at least 20-30 times right before you go to sleep. Sing “la, la, la, la” moving up and down through different notes and pitches, before moving on to “fa, fa, fa, fa” and finally “ma, ma, ma, ma.” Open your mouth as wide as you possibly can and hold it open for around 10 seconds. Push the tip of your tongue against the roof of your mouth and slide it backward 20 times. Using your index finger, press your cheek muscle away from your teeth 10 times on each side. Close your mouth and purse your lips. Hold for 30 seconds. With mouth open, move jaw to the right and hold for 30 seconds. Repeat on left side. Elevate the palate and uvula 20 times. Quit smoking: Tobacco smoke is an irritant that can result in tissue inflammation. Because the upper airway can be narrow to begin with, even small amounts of inflammation can restrict airflow. Good sleep hygiene: Follow a good sleep hygiene program by getting consistent sleep on a comfortable bed, in a dark, cool room. Inadequate sleep can lead to obesity and subsequent snoring. There are several surgical procedures that can help reduce snoring but because of the low success rates and potential health risks, surgery should only be considered as a last resort. http://leadership.ng/style/512910/snoring-causes-remedies-treatment-3 |
Business / Crude Price Slides After US Oil Rig Count Rises For First Time Since December by amsad19(m): 7:12am On Mar 19, 2016 |
Crude prices settled lower yesterday after the U.S oil rig count rose for the first time since December, renewing worries of a supply glut after an output freeze plan helped boost the market to 2016 highs and multi-week gains. U.S. energy firms this week added one oil rig after 12 weeks of cuts, according to data by industry firm Baker Hughes. Reuters reported on Friday that the addition, coming after oil rigs had fallen by two-thirds over the past year to 2009 lows, showed crude drilling picking up again after a 50 percent price rally since February. [RIG/U] “The rig count and crude prices have a direct relationship for sure”, a foreign news agency, Reuters quoted Pete Donovan, broker at Liquidity Energy in New York. Brent crude finished down 34 cents, or 0.8 percent, at $41.20 a barrel, having risen $1 earlier to a 2016 high of $42.54. U.S. crude settled down 76 cents, or 1.9 percent, at $39.44, after also gaining $1 to a year high of $41.20. Despite the retreat, oil posted multi-week gains, with Brent up for a fourth straight week and U.S. crude a fifth week in a row. Both benchmarks rose about 2 percent this week. Global oversupply in oil had knocked crude prices down from mid-2014 highs above $100 a barrel to 12-year lows earlier this year, bringing Brent to around $27 and U.S. crude to about $26. Over the past two months, prices rallied to reach above $40 after the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) floated the idea of a production freeze at January’s highs. The combination of declining oil output, smaller crude stockpile builds and surging gasoline consumption in the United States also helped the recovery, although some analysts said the rally had been overdone. “The market is probably too long here and needs a correction,” said Scott Shelton, energy futures broker with ICAP in Durham, North Carolina. Some traders who had been bearish oil and lost money recently were eyeing fresh bets to price crude lower. “I think this rally will stall,” said Tariq Zahir, who profited mostly over the last year on bets that U.S. crude for nearby delivery will fall against longer-dated contracts. “I took off several shorts and booked losses but on the first sign of weakness, I’m jumping back in. source : http://leadership.ng/news/510312/crude-price-slides-us-oil-rig-count-rises-first-time-since-december 1 Like |

Crime / How I Was Abducted, Abused For 7 Months – 15-year-old Patience Paul by amsad19(m): 1:39am On Mar 17, 2016 |
Fifteen-year-old Patience Paul, the schoolgirl allegedly abducted in Sokoto and forcefully converted to Islam, has recounted how she was abducted, held in captivity and sexually abused for seven months in Sarkin Baki (king of strangers’) residence in Sokoto State. Patience, who hails from Benue State, went missing on August 12, 2015. But reprieve came the way of the kidnapped girl and her family after the Sokoto State governor, Alhaji Aminu Waziri Tambuwal, ordered an investigation into the matter, which resulted in her release and subsequent reunion with her family. LEADERSHIP gathered from Patience that her abductor and some Hisbah (Sharia police) personnel had taken her to an imam in Runjin Sambo area of Sokoto with a claim that she wanted to convert to Islam. Patience said, “I was sent to buy biscuits and on my way I saw him (her abductor) and he persuaded me to come to his bungalow.” The primary six pupil disclosed that she was not forced into marriage but that her abductor turned her into a sex slave at the house of the Sarkin Baki. “Yes, he was forcefully making love to me any time he wanted,” she answered to a question on whether she was sexually abused. “They first took me to Sarkin Baki house, and kept me there for seven months before my parents came looking for me. “They gave me something to drink, but I refused to take the drink, and they took me to one room and locked me inside the room. “They forcefully made me to turn to Muslim and gave me another name, Aisha. Some people wanted to marry me, but the Sarkin Baki refused and said until I finish Islamic school before they marry me off. Addressing a press conference in Kaduna, a lawyer with a Jos, Plateau State-based non-governmental organisation (NGO), Voice for the Girl’s Child Foundation (VGCF), Barrister Ezekiel Dyagas, who helped in securing Patience’s release, said he was briefed about her case on March 1, 2016, by her brother. Barrister Dyagas said: “Her brother, who is here with me, has been up and doing since the family realised that the little girl was missing and eventually abducted by one of her neighbours.” “I promised the family to give me 48 hours and we would be able to trace her whereabouts. I posted her story on the website and you will not believe the response I got. “Within that 48 hours I was talking to the Sokoto State governor, Alhaji Aminu Tambuwal, and I told the girl’s brother that the governor will call him,” he said. The lawyer praised Tambuwal for ensuring the girl was released to her family. “In fact, the governor not only called, but he played a vital role towards the freeing of Patience. He acted as a father and we appreciate his role. In short, he was instrumental to her eventual release. “As I am talking to you, those behind her abduction in Sokoto had been arrested and are going to face prosecution soon,” he said. He also declared that he is taking the young girl to Benue State on Tuesday on the request of the state government who had also shown interest in her case. “Since, the commencement of the saga, I have had contact with the state commissioner for women affairs and youth development, and I will not tell you what the state government had promised to do for Patience. If you want to verify, you can call the commissioner. Patience’s elder brother, Isaac Paul, 28, who had just graduated from the University of Sokoto and is awaiting NYSC call-up, thanked Nigerians for assisting the family to recover their daughter. He said their mother was late while their father worked as a steward in Sokoto, adding that Patience is the sixth child in the family of nine. Paul also thanked journalists and the Sokoto State government for wiping their tears, just as he noted that the Benue State government had promised to enrol Patience in school. source: http://www.leadership.ng/news/509478/abducted-abused-7-months-15-year-old-patience-paul |

Politics / Does Nairaland Belong To The Southerners Alone? by amsad19(m): 5:12am On Mar 04, 2016 |
Recently the nairaland mods are not doing their jobs as expected. The southerners rain abuses on the northerners without respect and even go to the extent of abusing their faiths which is against the rules of this forum. All hatred speeches are poured on us. We also have our right in this forum, if wesay we will retaliate, the mods will ban us for defending ourselves. This days everyone in this forum just say what he want about hausa/fulani, the mods keep quiet it really hurts to see people saying whatever comes from their a$$ about you. Seun should do something about this, nairaland is so biased this days. I am fulani and all what you guys are saying here is damn wrong we are not the kind of people you think we are. I recently read some comments about hausa/yoruba clash in lagos they are really biased, can you imagine if we start asking southerners to pay for living in our land what do youthink will be the response? There is no way an okada rider that pay the government tax should also pay thugs in the name of they are his host community. We are in the 21st century this things will never happen again. we should learn to live in peace with each other. May Allah forgive the sin doers and may he destroy the devils amongst us. 2 Likes |
