HealthHoney And Cinnamon: A Powerful Combination For Treating Acne by Busy76(op): 5:56pm On May 10, 2023
What Causes Acne
Before delving into how honey and cinnamon may help treat acne, it is important to comprehend the root cause of this condition. Acne arises from a skin disorder in which hair follicles become obstructed by oil and dead skin cells, allowing for bacterial growth that leads to inflammation, redness, and the formation of pimples.

The emergence of acne can be influenced by various factors, encompassing hormonal changes, genetic predisposition, stress levels, and dietary choices. While conventional acne treatments available both over-the-counter and through prescriptions can yield positive results, a notable number of individuals opt for natural remedies to circumvent the use of harsh chemicals and potential side effects.

King Charles III has been crowned monarch of the United Kingdom of Britain and Northern Ireland on Saturday, in a ceremony steeped in a millennia of tradition and pageantry.

Shouts of “God Save the King” rang out and trumpets sounded after the Archbishop of Canterbury placed the crown on Charles’s head.


The coronation of Charles, 74, in Westminster Abbey comes almost eight months after he ascended the throne following the death of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, on Sept. 8 — a day that marked the end of an era defined by her 70-year reign.

He became the 40th monarch to be crowned at Westminster Abbey in a tradition dating back to 1066. His wife, Camilla, previously known as the queen consort, will be referred to as Queen Camilla from Saturday.

PoliticsWike Thinks President-elect Is An Official Position – Sam Amadi Reacts by Busy76(op): 11:12am On May 03, 2023
A former chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC), Sam Amadi, has lampooned Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, for declaring a public holiday ahead of President-elect, Bola Tinubu’s visit to the state.

Naija News reported earlier that Governor Wike declared Wednesday, May 3, as a public holiday for residents of the state in other to receive Tinubu.


Tinubu is expected to commission some projects, including a flyover at Rumuokwuta and Rumuola junction in the Obio/Akpor Local Government Area and a Magistrate Court complex at the Moscow Road in the Port-Harcourt City Local Government Area, during his visit on Wednesday (today).

Wike’s invitation of the All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftain and President-elect has since generated mixed reactions as many criticized the Rivers State Governor, particularly for declaring the day as a public holiday.

Joining the host of other Nigerians in reacting to the Wike’s decision, Amadi, in a Twitter post on Tuesday, said the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain probably thinks that President-elect is an official position, noting that Tinubu’s visit cannot be official.


“Governor Wike probably thinks ‘President-elect’ is an official position. The visit of @officialABAT cannot be an ‘official’ visit. It is so painful that leaders would degrade statecraft with pedestrian actions.

“If you degrade language, you degrade leadership, ala George Orwell,” Amadi wrote on Twitter.

HealthNatural Food That Will Increase Male Fertility by Busy76(op): 7:46pm On Apr 15, 2023
Male fertility can be influenced by various factors, including lifestyle, genetics, and diet. Adequate nutrition is essential for the proper functioning of the reproductive system, and certain foods have been found to enhance male fertility.
Here are some foods that can help increase male fertility:

Oysters: Oysters are an excellent source of zinc, which is crucial for sperm production and quality. Zinc deficiency has been linked to low sperm count and reduced sperm motility. Besides, oysters contain amino acids that can improve testosterone levels.

Dark chocolate: Dark chocolate contains flavonoids, which have antioxidant properties that protect sperm from oxidative stress. Oxidative stress can damage sperm DNA and reduce their quality. Dark chocolate also contains L-arginine, an amino acid that can enhance sperm count and motility.

Fatty fish: Fatty fish like salmon, sardines, and mackerel are rich in omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3s can improve sperm quality by enhancing their motility and count. They also have anti-inflammatory properties that reduce the risk of oxidative stress.

Walnuts: Walnuts are a good source of omega-3s, zinc, selenium, and vitamin E, all of which can enhance male fertility. Walnuts also contain arginine, an amino acid that boosts sperm production.

Spinach: Spinach is rich in folate, a B-vitamin that is essential for sperm development. Folate deficiency can lead to abnormal sperm production and low sperm count. Spinach also contains antioxidants that protect sperm from oxidative stress.

Citrus fruits: Citrus fruits like oranges, grapefruits, and lemons are rich in vitamin C, an antioxidant that protects sperm from oxidative stress. Vitamin C can also improve sperm motility and reduce the risk of DNA damage.

Pumpkin seeds: Pumpkin seeds are a good source of zinc, which is crucial for sperm production and quality. They also contain omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidants that protect sperm from oxidative stress.

Eggs: Eggs are an excellent source of protein, which is essential for sperm development. They also contain vitamins D and E, both of which can enhance sperm quality.

In conclusion, a healthy and balanced diet is crucial for male fertility. Foods rich in zinc, omega-3 fatty acids, folate, vitamin C, and antioxidants can enhance sperm production, motility, and quality. Incorporating these foods into your diet can improve your chances of fathering a child.

HealthWhat Are The Causes Of Kidney Failures by Busy76(op): 1:29pm On Apr 03, 2023
Kidney failure, also known as renal failure, is a condition in which the kidneys are no longer able to function properly. The kidneys are responsible for filtering waste and excess fluid from the blood and producing urine.
When the kidneys fail, waste and fluid build up in the body, which can cause a range of symptoms and complications.

There are two main types of kidney failure: acute kidney injury (AKI) and chronic kidney disease (CKD).

Acute kidney injury occurs suddenly and is often caused by a sudden drop in blood flow to the kidneys, injury or trauma to the kidneys, or certain medications or toxins. Symptoms may include decreased urine output, swelling in the legs or feet, fatigue, nausea, and confusion.

Chronic kidney disease develops over time and is usually caused by underlying conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure, or glomerulonephritis. Symptoms may not appear until the kidneys are severely damaged, and may include fatigue, weakness, loss of appetite, swelling in the hands and feet, and difficulty sleeping.

Treatment for kidney failure may include medications, dialysis (a process that removes waste and excess fluid from the blood), or kidney transplant. It’s important to talk to a healthcare provider if you are concerned about your kidney health or if you are experiencing symptoms of kidney failure.

There are many potential causes of kidney failure in human beings. Some common causes include:

Diabetes: High blood sugar levels can damage the blood vessels in the kidneys, leading to kidney damage and, over time, kidney failure.

High blood pressure: When blood pressure is too high, the blood vessels in the kidneys can become damaged, leading to kidney failure.

Glomerulonephritis: This is a group of diseases that cause inflammation and damage to the filtering units (glomeruli) of the kidneys.

Polycystic kidney disease: This is an inherited condition in which fluid-filled cysts develop in the kidneys, leading to kidney failure over time.

Kidney stones: If kidney stones are not treated, they can cause damage to the kidneys and potentially lead to kidney failure.

Infections: Infections, such as pyelonephritis (kidney infection) or sepsis, can cause damage to the kidneys.

Certain medications: Certain medications, such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), can cause kidney damage if taken for extended periods of time or in high doses.

Autoimmune diseases: Some autoimmune diseases, such as lupus, can cause damage to the kidneys.
Congenital defects: Some people are born with abnormalities in their kidneys that can lead to kidney failure later in life.

PoliticsYour Action Can Lead To Anarchy – Festus Keyamo Slams Buhari (Video) by Busy76(op): 8:27pm On Feb 17, 2023

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t9n65anE5qE

Festus Keyamo, the minister of state for labor and employment, has opposed President Muhammadu Buhari’s stance on the naira redesign program.
Keyamo, who is also the official spokesperson for the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council, said during a live interview appearance on Channels Television on Friday that Buhari was given the incorrect advice to ignore the Supreme Court’s ruling regarding the legality of the old naira notes.

He stated that nobody should be above the law and that Buhari’s actions were in violation of the Supreme Court’s ruling.

The president of Nigeria, Muhammadu Buhari, sanctioned the continued use of the old 200 naira notes as legal cash until April 10th on Thursday during a national broadcast.

The president announced that the Central Bank of Nigeria will reintroduce the old 200 naira notes into circulation (CBN).

The previous N500 and N1,000, however, are no longer accepted as legal money, he added.

This goes against a previous Supreme Court order on the subject that ordered all old notes to continue to be legal money until a final ruling was made in the case that was before the high court.

In an effort to deflect responsibility, Keyamo claimed in an interview on Friday that he wasn’t among those who advised Buhari on the matter, but that if he had been, he would have advised the President to fully abide by the Supreme Court’s order and permit the old naira notes to continue in use past February 10 while the case is being finally decided by the high court.

“If I were to advise him (President Buhari), I would have advised differently. I did not advise him, it’s not my responsibility, I don’t know who.”

PoliticsJust In: CBN Gives Banks New Directive On Old 500, 1000 Naira Notes by Busy76(op): 3:28pm On Feb 17, 2023
According to reports, the Central Bank of Nigeria has instructed banks all throughout the country to begin accepting old N500 and N1,000 notes from members of the public who wish to deposit them right now.
The CBN, however, insisted that the older currencies were still not accepted as legal currency and that the banks could only take N500,000 in cash from any one person.

High-value note holders would still need to go to the CBN to deposit their old bills.

According to a source from the apex bank that was reported by Punch, the CBN instructed the banks to collect the funds instead of bringing them to the CBN office due to access issues.

A CBN official said, “Go to your bank but fill the form before you go. Go with your reference code you generate. With your code, banks will collect it from you. But if it is more than 500,000, you will go to the CBN and deposit it.”

The CBN earlier launched a portal on its website and required those wishing to return outdated notes to fill it out and generate a number.

Godwin Emefiele, the governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, instructed the banks to provide People access to the old N200 notes on Thursday.

This follows President Buhari’s announcement on Thursday that only old N200 notes would be accepted for transactions until April 10, at which point they would cease to be accepted.

The N1,000 and N5,000 old Naira notes, insisted the Nigerian president, are no longer accepted as lawful money.


Violent protests have taken place around the nation in the wake of the broadcast, especially in and around Lagos.

Hoodlums had also on Friday morning, stormed major roads in Mile-12, Ketu and Ojota areas, along Ikorodu Road, and Iyana-Ipaja.

PoliticsBuhari Insists N500, N1,000 Notes No Longer Valid Despite Supreme Court Ruling by Busy76(op): 8:08am On Feb 16, 2023
President Muhammadu Buhari says the old N500 and N1,000 notes can be swapped at the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) and designated points.
Speaking in a national broadcast on Thursday, the president said the old N200 note will, however, remain legal tender until April 10 when they will cease to be valid.

“To further ease the supply pressures, particularly to our citizens, I have given approval to the CBN that the old N200 bank notes be released back into circulation and that it should also be allowed to circulate as legal tender with the new N200, N500, and N1000 banknotes for 60 days from February 10, 2023 to April 10, 2023 when the old N200 note ceases to be legal tender,” he said.

“In line with section 20(3) of the CBN Act 2007, all existing old N1,000 and N500 notes remain redeemable at the CBN and designated points.”

The president’s position is despite a ruling on a suit filed by some states challenging the naira redesign policy, in which the supreme court restrained the federal government from restricting the use of the old naira notes pending the determination of the suit.

At the resumed sitting on Wednesday, Abdulhakeem Mustapha, counsel to Kaduna, Kogi, and Zamfara states, asked the court to make an order directing the federal government not to implement a deadline on the old naira notes.

But a seven-member panel of the apex court led by John Okoro, said there was no need to issue a fresh order as “the interim order is pending the hearing on the motion on notice”.

The case was thereafter adjourned till February 22.

Meanwhile, the CBN had, in a circular addressed to deposit money banks (DMBs), mobile money operators (MMOs), super agents, and agents in January, announced the launch of a cash swap programme for all LGAs across the country.

Super agents are companies licensed by the CBN to recruit agents for the purpose of agency banking.

“The old N1000, N500, N200 notes can be exchanged for the newly redesigned notes and/or the existing lower denominations (N100, N50 and N20, etc) which remain legal tender,” the CBN had said.

“The agent shall exchange a maximum of N10,000 per person. Amounts above N10,000 may be treated as cash-in deposit into wallets or bank accounts in line with the cashless policy. BVN, NIN, or Voter’s card details of the customers should be captured as much as possible.”

PoliticsLady Reveals How Aisha Buhari Allegedly Brutalised Her [audio] by Busy76(op): 1:16pm On Feb 15, 2023
Aisha Buhari, the wife of President Muhammadu Buhari, has stirred up new controversy after she was recently in the news for the detention and alleged abuse of Aminu Mohammed, a student.

Aminu, a Federal University of Dutse 500-level student, was detained by the Department of State Service (DSS) as a result of a tweet accusing Aisha Buhari, the First Lady, of diverting public funds for her own use.

Aisha retracted the charges against him, nevertheless, in response to widespread uproar, and instructed security personnel to free him.

The publisher of Daily Nigerian, Ja’afar Ja’afar, had, during the controversy, claimed that the first lady slipped and fractured her leg while attempting to throw a kick at the student.

Ja’afar further alleged that Aminu was not arrested by operatives of the Department of State Services but by plain-clothed policemen.

He had said: “It may sound like a fairy tale, but the following is actually what transpired: the duo were beaten to a pulp in the presence of Mrs. Buhari by three security aides. While Aminu and Ms. Kassim were being beaten, the First Lady felt that they were not beating them well, so she joined them.

“As she attempted to throw a kick, she slipped and fractured her leg. It was the injury she suffered during the assault that took her to Cedar Crest Hospital for treatment.

“While Ms. Kassim was released on the condition that she would not speak to the press, the final-year student may face trumped-up charges of defamation. This is sad for democracy.”

In a new investigative report by the Foundation of Investigative Journalism (FIJ), a yet-to-be-identified lady accused Aisha Buhari of beating her up.

In a snippet of the story released on Wednesday, the lady accused the First Lady of wishing she (the unknown lady) had been shot.

She claimed Aisha said she was the first lady and she (the lady) could be killed and her body thrown into the lagoon.

PoliticsDSS Provides Update On Fani-kayode’s Interrogation, Warns Politicians by Busy76(op): 8:36pm On Feb 14, 2023
The Department of State Services (DSS) has said the former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, will appear before the agency for more questioning.
Recall that Fani-Kayode, the Director of New Media Operations and Special Projects of the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential campaign council, was on Monday detained and grilled by the DSS over a post he made on Twitter.

In a statement on Tuesday, the Public Relations Officer of DSS, Dr Peter Afunanya disclosed that the agency invited Fani-Kayode for questioning based on an investigation it is carrying out relating to issues relevant to National Security.

According to the secret police, Fani-Kayode was made to face a Panel which interviewed him on the subject matter before granting him administrative bail.

He said the former minister had been directed to make routine returns to the DSS with effect from Wednesday till otherwise while his investigation continues, warning political parties and their media managers to apply restraint in their utterances and public communication engagements prior to and after the general elections.

Afunanya said, “The Department of State Services hereby informs the public that it invited Chief Femi Fani-Kayode to its National Headquarters, Abuja, on 13th February, 2023. The invitation was in respect of an investigation of some of his allegations and insinuations relating to issues relevant to​ National Security.

“Chief Fani-Kayode faced a Panel which interviewed him on the subject matter. Afterwards, the Service granted him administrative bail and directed that he makes routine returns to the Office with effect from Wednesday, 15th February, 2023 till otherwise. The investigation, however, continues.

“Meanwhile, political parties and their media managers are advised to apply restraint in their utterances and public communication engagements prior to and after the general elections. This is to avoid heating up the polity and evoking tendencies that could lead to violent reactions as well as undermine peace and order.”
