I m addicted to carbonated drinks and it's beginning to sound weird and I can hardly do without taking like 3 a day in every meal I take.

It's like there's a force propelling me to always take carbonated drinks.

Pls how do I get rid of such unhealthy habits?

First try reducing the amount you take daily little by little. Also substitute with fruity drinks and stuff like that. Carbonated drinks are shite really. And the addiction is actually to the sugar in the drink.
You, my dear are a sugar addict.. that's what needs to be controlled.

The fact that you had to ask public opinion means you consider it too short personally.

Lol so person no fit wear cap inside sun again? Wahala

Ballzproblem2:
h Brighton have one of the best scouts in football that's why we (chelsea). stole their head of recruitment .



Anyways back to the topic , trossard now is the new deal to arsenal all of sudden mudryk is "overhyphed" because he turned their ass down for chelsea lol , claimed he is not EPL proven

Chelsea's name is New Brighton now o

Kennyfancy:
Brighton nah mugu, this guy should cost nothing less than 60 million pounds, he is even better than the guy that Score 9 Goals in 5 years and Chelsea still buy am

Know the full story. Trossard has problems with coach so coach has dropped him for past few games. He's not likely to play for Brighton again so they decided to cash in while they still can

Sweetplum:
And if it's a woman they are to v a family with nko?
I m here to tell you that when you love a woman, let your money love her.

Well the man was planning on starting a family but the woman was just using him as ATM lol.
I'm not against spending money on someone you love, but if it turns out that the other party is just there for the money then it's time to cut ties with em. The Chinese dude took that literally tho

Sweetplum:

Like I said before, there's no amount that's too big to spend on a woman. Real men spend and they don't calculate. Only talakanaires carry calculator they do account for their babe

Real men that actually work hard and legit for their money don't spend it recklessly for someone they're not planning to start a family with.

Jennyclay:
You killed her because of #60M? . There are many rich men who has spent more than that amount on their ex girlfriend and they didn't kill her.

I pray this case shouldn't be swept under the carpet.

Justice must be served.

Rip to Ms Sani

You can't place all the blame on the guy's head tho. He was basically scammed and deceived since he was promised marriage. Client con change am for yahoo girl.
He definitely shouldn't have taken the law into his own hands but what's done is done.

Bahamas95:

This country is a shit show. Wtf is that senseless man calling himself an Imam is saying?? Wtf man?? How can he open his mouth and spout rubbish like garbage can?

See his head like pothole.
This country is a failure.

Acidosis:
Every time a woman ovulates, she releases at least 1 egg. So, biologically, selling of eggs has no negative impact on a woman. It's only eggs she sold, not her ovaries. Her ovaries' got more than enough to meet her reproductive needs. It's even better to sell it than waste it (as menstruation).

The bigger issues are that she failed to inform you about the procedure and whatever it was you guys were going through didn't matter to her. It was all about her. These are the main threats to your marriage.

You haven't seen anything yet.

I rarely comment on nairaland posts, but this your comment na confirm.

By 2030 there won't be a single animal left in Nigeria aside mosquitoes cos hungry Nigerians would have eaten them all, even rats that use to help us clean our gutters wouldn't be spared, they would be eaten into extinction.

This I have seen.

Now I understand your name

Apparently you also consider women who have sex with kids as *not rape*

I'm losing brain cells reading all your posts about male bashing lmao. Cool it fam, stop trying to trend by Force.

Men rape women. Men rape kids.
Women rape men. Women rape kids.

Don't use the erection excuse.

There is a particular video on my phone which I'm very sure would give you the proof you keep asking for.
Just don't know how to share it on this platform

saphiere:
Who commit most crimes? Male or Female?

Who knows? How can you decide that? You don't know everything that happens in every corner of the world.
Mayhaps it's men, mayhaps it's women, fact is we're all humans, and we all have the potential to commit heinous crimes. It's down to individual behavior and morales, not gender.

Gender doesn't influence people to commit crimes.

saphiere:
MOST TIMES I would just sit down and wish God didn't create the male gender.

Even God regretted creating this gender.

As at the time God made that statement "Let us create man in our own image" He was actually referring to making Adam alone. Woman "Eve" was not in the picture. Eve came as an afterthought.
Read your Bible very well you'd understand that God didn't regret or made the statement , "I regret making ......" when Eve failed. That statement came out after the sons not daughters o. The sons of man did abominable acts.

Wtf lmao... Take a moment to read your statement well...
Everyone is entitled to his or her opinion but lmaooo

Fyi, the Bible puts all humans under the category "man" or "mankind" in some versions. So, based on your logic, we all shouldn't exist.

Armed with a sharp knife, a megaphone and dressed all in black, Gbenga Adewoyin could have passed for a medieval witch hunter, a herbal salesman or an urban preacher as he walked around a market in the south-western Nigerian city of Ibadan.

Those curious enough to get close in the Gbagi market quickly dispersed when they heard his message. "Anyone that can provide any evidence for the existence of the supernatural, be it juju or voodoo magic, will be offered 2.5m naira ($6,000, £4,650)," he announced repeatedly in Yoruba and English.

The 24-year-old atheist has recently emerged as a rebel publicly contesting the powers of the supernatural in this deeply religious country.

Belief in African traditional religions and its juju components are widespread in Nigeria, with many combining them with either Christianity or Islam, according to a 2010 report by the Pew Research Centre.

Many Nigerians believe that magic charms can allow humans to morph into cats, protect bare skins from sharp blades and make money appear in a clay pot.

These beliefs are not just held by the uneducated, they exist even at the highest level of Nigeria's academia.

Dr Olaleye Kayode, a senior lecturer in African Indigenous Religions at the University of Ibadan, told the BBC that money-making juju rituals - where human body parts mixed with charms makes money spew out of a pot - really work.

The naira notes that supposedly appear "are gotten by spirits from existing banks", he told the BBC.

Jude Akanbi, a lecturer at the Crowther Graduate Theological Seminary in Abẹ́òkúta, is also unequivocal about juju.

"This ability to be able to transform yourself to [a] cat, to disappear and reappear, these things are possible within the dynamics of traditional African religion.

"Although [it] sounds illogical, like old wives' tales, however from what we have seen and heard, these things are possible," he said.

Such beliefs, especially that human body parts and charms can produce money from a clay pot, have led to a recent wave of gruesome murders in the country, with single women often the victims.

"I feel horrible to see young people engage in these ritual killings.

"If money ritual worked, we would have seen a massive inflation in the economy for the decades that we have believed in it," Mr Adewoyin told the BBC.

He was in Ibadan, Oyo state, on the second of three planned in-country tours offering 2.5m naira, crowd-funded via Twitter, to anyone that can publicly demonstrate these juju powers.

"The knife is for anyone that claims their juju makes them blade-proof," he said.

Questioning the existence of supernatural powers is considered taboo in much of Nigerian society.

To be openly expressing such thoughts, as Mr Adewoyin was doing in a market, was risky. He could just as easily be arrested for blasphemy or lynched by an angry mob.

"Of course juju works, he doesn't know what he is saying," said one trader who lingered with a scowl on his face.

In his pocket was a black amulet, a small leather pouch containing supposedly magic charms, that he said was for protection. However, he was not interested in publicly demonstrating its powers, not even for $6,000.

Belief in magic often coexists with Christianity and Islam. Clerics from both monotheistic religions often refer to aspects of traditional African religions as evil - something real, but which can be defeated by prayer and their own higher powers.

Many pastors have become rich and famous on claims of having supernatural powers that can overcome juju and evil curses, something which many imams also practise.

However, no-one has taken up Mr Adewoyin's challenge at two of the venues in Ogun and Ibadan and he is not holding his breath for his next stop in Anambra state in the south-east.

While he has been dismissed by some as an attention seeker, no-one can hide from the grisly images of the bodies found recently with missing limbs and empty eye sockets in a resurgence of the sinister money-making juju rituals.

This killing of humans to use their body parts for magic purposes gripped Nigeria in the mid-90s and led to riots in the eastern city of Owerri after the kidnap and murder of an 11-year-old boy in 1996.

Now, with social media, hardly a day passes without reports of a missing person and pictures of mutilated corpses linked to juju.

There was widespread outrage last month after three men allegedly killed a 17-year-old girl in Ogun state to use her body parts in a ritual they believed would make them rich. They confessed to the killing after they were arrested by the police and have been charged in court.

The clay pot and red cloths they were caught with could have passed for a scene in a movie from Nollywood, Nigeria's film industry famous for depicting manifestations of juju, but this was real.

And they were young men - the oldest was 21, sparking the Twitter hashtag #At21, where users described what they were doing at that stage in life and bemoaning what they saw as societal pressures on young people to get rich quick.

The outrage over the girl's death made federal lawmakers debate juju in parliament and consider the "declaration of a state of emergency on ritual killings in the country", with its depiction in Nollywood movies mentioned as a factor.

Nigeria's Information Minister Lai Mohammed has also chipped in, blaming Nigerian movies and social media for the spate of killings.

He wants the films censor board to engage film makers "on the need to eschew money ritual content in their movies".

But film makers are not having it - they feel he has unduly picked on Nollywood in what is a national crisis.

"The minister misfired, he cannot breach our fundamental rights to create," actor and producer Kanayo O Kanayo told the BBC.

He said the minister was neglecting what has become a societal issue and the inability of families, traditional and religious leaders, and politicians to ensure the moral upbringing of young people.

While the debate rages about who is to blame for the killings, a much broader conversation is to be had about Nigeria's educational system that fails to persuade people that juju and the supernatural are not real, says Mr Adewoyin.

He is hoping that his rebellious tour can expose those he calls tricksters, claiming the supernatural powers of juju, and help put an end to the spate of ritual killings.

"For a reasonable human being to believe that a human with all his biological components can turn to yam or banana is illogical, and worrisome," he said.

doggedfighter:
Seems people are now competing on who will eat the weirdest animals.

Leaving me wondering if we're in a war situation where people eat almost anything to survive.
Op, is openly celebrating and eating rats with heaps of Santana while joyfully and gleefully uploading pictures.

And even giving the rats names to reassure his stomach.


Hopefully this pandemic will soon be over so sanity and normalcy will return.

For no one can predict the kind of things some will eat if it lingers.

That's not a weird animal. It's what yorubas call okete.

Kenyans have rallied to the aid of a widow filmed cooking stones for her eight children to make them believe she was preparing food for them.

Peninah Bahati Kitsao, who lives in Mombasa, hoped they would fall asleep while they waited for their meal.

She used to wash laundry locally but such work is hard to come by now as people have restricted their interactions because of coronavirus.

A shocked neighbour, Prisca Momanyi, alerted the media to her plight.

After being interviewed, the widow has received money via mobile phone and through a bank account that was opened for her by Ms Momanyi, as the mother of eight does not know how to read and write.

Ms Kitsao, who lives in a two-bedroomed house without running water or electricity, has described the generosity as a "miracle".

"I didn't believe that Kenyans can be so loving after I received phone calls from all over the country asking how they might be of help," she told Tuko news website.

She had told NTV that her hungry children had not been deceived for long by her delaying stone-cooking tactics.

"They started telling me that they knew I was lying to them, but I could do nothing because I had nothing."

Her neighbour had come around to see if the family was OK after hearing the children crying, NTV reports.

As part of measures to cushion the most vulnerable from the coronavirus crisis, the government has launched a feeding programme.

But it had yet to reach Ms Kitsao, who was widowed last year when her husband was killed by a gang.

Her neighbour has also thanked the county authorities and the Kenya Red Cross, who have also come to help Ms Kitsao.

Many more households in that neighbourhood of the coastal city are now going to benefit from the relief food scheme too, the authorities say.
