Aketi, Donald and God.
I never stopped pondering on the relationship
between the elections of Trump, Akeredolu and
the intervention of God, or rather divine
intervention.
Nobody gave the two contenders much chance to
win the elections in their two respective countries.
Trump won because he told his class of
electorates, the old white people what they love
to hear, and they all trooped out to vote massive
for him, despite the fact that even his own party
members were not well disposed to his method of
campaign. God said yes, and nobody could decree
otherwise.
Here in Nigeria, and Ondo State in particular, we
don't really know what Akeredolu said that
appealed to the people that voted for him. But
whatever it is, God has ordained that it is his
time. The top echelon of APC that is pro Tinubu
backed away from him. Even I didn't give him a
chance, I called him a serial loser and a political
ophan.
God laughed at us for our myopicim and lack of
the ability to see beyond the immediate. His will
came to pass despite that Aketi was ophaned and
seemingly abandoned by leading political figures,
God didn't forsake him.
People should not lose hope, vision and sense of
direction in whatever circumstances of life.
Things may appear superficially challenging,
overwhelmingly daunting and insurmountable,
forge ahead. Like Trump and Aketi, God will
intervene and level the mountains.
Once again, congratulations to Rotimi Akeredolu. I
have noticed over the years that once these
Rotimis, (a Yoruba generic name for the ogbanjes)
do not die again, their team in the spiritual realm
always help them? Abi my friends? Look at
Rotimi Amechi, Ola Rotimi, rtd Brigadier Oluwole
Rotimi, Rotimi Williams, and now, Rotimi
Akeredolu. Me too, bring your ears, let me
whisper to your ears.... I be one of them ooo, but
I never die once, only threatened by those
dreadful seven child killer diseases. I survived it
all and still moving.
Up Rotimis, na una time to arise and shine. |

Breast, a soft (rounded) protruding organ on the
upper front of a woman’s body, is no doubt an
important part of the female anatomy, not only for
producing milk needed to feed a new born baby,
although that can be enormous, its high-end
advantage during sexual activities and the role it
plays in the attractiveness of a woman cannot be
overemphasised.
Notably, men have theirs, but it is not (always) as
sizeable as those of women, and many men lust after
these organs, oft making some to skip their breaths,
lose concentration or even change focus on sighting
them, and for most of them, the bigger, the better.
Call it an instant attention grabber for men and you
may not be far from the truth. It excites them and
remains a huge delight for them but it also delights
its owners; women, making them feel good and
sometimes enhancing their comparative advantage.
And suffice it to say that it aptly qualifies as one of
the most cherished (by women) and most loved (by
men) parts of the female body. Such is its importance
to both sexes.
Even though big breasts could be a blessing or
burden for women, as big breasts have been found
to have the likelihood of affecting posture and
causing chronic back pain, regardless, more women
seem to crave for it now than ever before.
However, it is not uncommon these days to see that
women, including young girls, are becoming
increasingly endowed in that region. In fact, in those
days, girls used to wear vest until they approached 18
but now, bras have taken the centre stage, not just
for decoration but because there is indeed
something to cover, which underscores the fact that
girls and women are getting bigger in that region.
Many have attributed women’s bust increase to the
fact that many more women are going under the
knife for breast enlargement, which has made it
difficult to know which one is natural or artificial, but
far from that, lifestyle and diet have been found to
play a major role in bust size.
This is independent of heredity and the fact that
women experience some natural variation in their
breast size usually during their period (menstruation)
and pregnancy period (pre and post).
An emeritus surgeon, Prof. Michael Baum, who is
also an expert in breast cancer, explained that one
good reason why more women are getting increased
bust size is increased fat consumption, but a
nutritionist, Jane Clarke told Daily Mail that people
are eating more of wrong food and that all the
calories people consume end up on the hips and
breasts coupled with the fact that more women are
now taking too much of alcohol which is highly
calorific.
Another nutritionist, Dr. Marilyn Glenville, also
opined that beyond fat, increase in the breast tissue
levels has also been responsible for the increase in
breast size. “So, we have to look at what stimulates
breast tissue growth, and that is oestrogen, the
female sex hormone. Oestrogen is what changes our
body shape during puberty,” she added.
Glenville explained that there is a strong link between
increased oestrogen levels and bigger breasts,
adding that there are some breast-enhancing
supplements that have made their way into some of
the food people consume, making such food items
have oestrogenic properties, which have impacted on
their breast size. She argued further that a large
chunk of the milk consumed by humans come from
pregnant cows, thus the milk would be flooded with
oestrogen.
She said, “It makes sense to look at the ways in which
our exposure to all types of oestrogen, the hormone
our own bodies produce and oestrogenic chemicals
we come into contact with, has changed over the
years.
“Girls today reach puberty earlier than ever before,
and are going on to have fewer ¬children and
breastfeeding for less time. As a result, we have far
more periods than our ancestors would have had
and we are exposed to more monthly surges of
oestrogen, which stimulates ovulation and is also
responsible for the increasing breast sizes.”
Meanwhile, a previous study, led by Dr. Karin
Michels, from Harvard Medical School, had explained
that young girls of nowadays are reaching puberty at
an earlier age because of consumption of sugary
drinks. Thus, when these girls reach puberty, they
begin to show the signs, evident in their breasts and
butts.
Michels said, “Our study adds to increasing concern
about the widespread consumption of sugar-
sweetened drinks among children and adolescents.
Our study suggests that age of first menstruation
(menarche) occurred earlier among girls with the
highest consumption of drinks sweetened with added
sugar. These findings are important in the context of
earlier puberty onset among girls.”
Going by Glenville’s explanation, the fact that more
girls reach puberty exposes them to more oestrogen
from their young age, which tends to have its own
effect on their anatomy, especially their breasts.
One other explanation for the rising size of boobs,
according to experts, is the use of contraceptive pills.
In a report on softpedia.com, a consultant
endocrinologist, Prof. Pierre-Marc Bouloux, was
quoted as saying, “There is a tendency for the pill to
stimulate breast growth. However, modern versions
of the pill contain far less estrogen than their older
counterparts.”
Bouloux explained that there are some other
products that come as consumable items, like some
chewing gum, which have some oestrogenic
properties that could enhance breast size, adding
that certain chemicals in polluted water and
industrial wastes could mimic oestrogen and
produce the same boob-boosting factor in the
women.
But, in the words of Dr. Joanna Scurr, a breast
biomechanics expert and principal lecturer in
biomechanics at the University of Portsmouth, breast
sizes are increasing because of the higher proportion
of fats in them, adding that junk food, tinned food,
canned drinks, and plastic bottles could also be
responsible, due to the xenoestrogen.
Therefore, the increase in breast sizes in recent times
could be placed down to increased fat consumption
by women, rising levels of breast tissue, eating junks
and fatty meals, drinking sugary drinks and use of
contraceptive pills, more so because breast tissue
has been found to be extremely sensitive to
hormones. These are independent of hereditary,
menstruation and pregnancy/breastfeeding.
Commenting on the study, a medical practitioner, Dr.
Rotimi Adesanya, explained that apart from increase
in fat diets, use of family planning drugs are some of
the things responsible for the increasing breast sizes.
He said, “The increase is due to increase in fats
because breast is made of fatty tissues. So, if the fat
is much in the body, definitely, the one in the breast
will be much as well. So, the level of fat a person eats
is an indirect proportion of the person’s breasts size.
For some, it runs in the family, and for people that
tend to be obese or big in size, they also tend to have
a large breast.
“Also, use of hormonal drugs, such as contraceptive
pills, could increase breast size. Diet is also a very
important factor. The fatty diets include sugary
drinks, margarines, etc., and too much of oil is not
very good, and that is why we advise people to take
more of fruits and vegetables.” |
[color=#000099][/color]The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has set up a
monitoring mechanism using its branches
nationwide to ensure that the N338 billion special
intervention fund it disburses to the 27 states of the
federation to pay the backlog of workers’ salaries is
not diverted by the state governments to other uses.
This is coming on the heels of the central bank’s
disbursement of N65.334 billion from the N338
billion to eight more states.
The states which accessed the fund in the last two
weeks include Abia – N14.152 billion, Adamawa –
N2.378 billion, Bauchi – N8.60 billion, Ebonyi –
N4.063 billion, Gombe – N16.459 billion, Kebbi –
N0.690 billion, Ondo – N14.686 billion and Niger –
N4.306 billion.
With the disbursement to the eight states, this brings
to 11 states which have accessed the special
intervention fund of the CBN.
Kwara (N4.320 bilion), Osun (N34.988 billion) and
Zamfara (N10.020 billion) were the first three states
to be paid by the CBN last month.
A top CBN official, who confirmed the disbursement
to eight more states, however said the central bank
was concerned about the diversion of funds by the
state governors to other uses other than the payment
of workers’ salary arrears.
To prevent this from happening, he said the CBN was
setting up a monitoring mechanism to ensure that
funds are not diverted to other uses.
He also said the central bank would solicit the
support of civil society groups and labour unions to
ensure that workers are paid their salaries.
The official expressed optimism that if the state
governors stick to the terms of the agreement, the
injection of N338 billion would go a long way in
relating the economy because of the rise in
disposable income of public sector workers across
the states.
As part of the federal government’s resolve to end
the lingering crisis of unpaid workers’ salaries in the
country, especially in several states of the federation,
President Muhammadu Buhari had approved a
comprehensive relief package designed to salvage
the situation.
Part of the relief package was the
CBN special intervention fund, which is in the form of
soft loans available to states to access solely for the
purpose of paying the backlog of salaries.
The loans attract an interest rate of 9 per cent and
are repayable over 20 years.
The approval of the special intervention fund was
sequel to the decision by the National Economic
Council (NEC) at its meeting of June 29, 2015, that had
requested that the CBN, in collaboration with other
stakeholders, should appraise and consider ways of
liquidating outstanding workers’ salaries owed by
state and local governments.
The conditions for accessing the facility included
resolutions of the respective state executive councils
(SECs) authorising the borrowings and state Houses
of Assembly consenting to the loans, as well as
issuance of Irrevocable Standing Payment Orders
(ISPOs) to ensure timely repayment at source from
the states’ Federation Account allocations.
