Health / UK Moves To Ban Junk Food Advert After Boris Johnson’s Near-death Experience by CallMeDrino: 8:41am On Jul 27, 2020
The Prime Minister of Britain, Boris Johnson, is ready to roll out junk food advert bans, including a £10 million anti-obesity campaign, following his own brush with death that he partly blamed on his weight.

As reported in the British media, Johnson is expected to announce his “Better Health” campaign on Monday, which will include encouragement of doctors to issue “cycling prescriptions” for overweight patients, more segregated cycling lanes and a ban on junk food television ads before 9.00pm.

“COVID-19 has given us all a wake-up call of the immediate and long-term risks of being overweight, and the Prime Minister is clear we must use this moment to get healthier, more active and eat better,” said a government spokesman on Sunday.

“We will be urging the public to use this moment to take stock of how they live their lives, and to take simple steps to lose weight, live healthier lives, and reduce pressure on the NHS.”

It was also gathered that restaurants will also have to publish the number of calories in the meal they serve.

The Prime Minister who battled rigorously to also control his weight, required intensive care treatment in April after catching the virus.

The plan, which was established mated to cost £10 million ($12.8 million, 11 million euros), marks a U-turn by the prime minister, who has long railed against the interventionist “nanny state”.

As disclosed by a Public Health England (PHE) study published on Saturday, obesity increases the risk of death from COVID-19 by forty percent.

Politics / Lai Mohammed Denies Ordering NBC To Suspend BBNaija by CallMeDrino: 5:21am On Jul 26, 2020
The Minister of Information and Culture in Nigeria, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, has denied ordering the National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) to suspend the transmission of popular reality TV show, Big Brother Naija.

The minister countered the report which was first published on July 24, 2020 by top Nigerian online newspaper, TheCable, in a statement made available to Featured24 on Saturday.

The report by the newspaper claimed that the minister gave the order to Acting Director-General of the NBC, Armstrong Idachaba, over fears of a possible spread of COVID-19 among the housemates.

However, Mr Mohammed, in a statement by his media aide, Segun Adeyemi, slammed the report by describing it as a “lie”.

“The report was not credited to the minister. That statement is not credited to the minister. We will not dignify speculative reports; if a minister issues a directive, it will not be issued verbally.

“There’s going to be a memo to that effect that he will send; anybody that is sure that the minister made that statement should provide a memo.

“Like I said earlier, we will not dignify speculative report; if you tune your satellite TV to channel 198, I am sure Big Brother Naija is still airing, contrary to the speculative report that the minister has ordered NBC to suspend the show,” the statement read.

This news platform recalls that before the start of the current season which started on July 19, potentials Housemates were in quarantine before the premiere to curtail the possible spread of the virus.

The reality show entered its fifth season on Sunday, July 19 with 20 housemates competing for a N85million grand prize.

The grand prize, which includes N30m cash prize, two-bedroom apartment, an SUV, a trip to Dublin, home appliances, a trip to Dubai, a year’s supply of noodles and a trip to watch the UEFA Champions League final, among others, makes this season’s winning the biggest since the show was launched in 2006.

Crime / Kiki Mordi Accused Of Threatening Seyitan, D’banj’s Rape Accuser by CallMeDrino: 5:30pm On Jul 25, 2020
BBC Reporter Kiki Mordi Accused Of Being The 'Hitman' In Threatening Seyitan Over Rape Accusation Against D’banj

Popular Nigerian journalist and a reporter for the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) has been put on blast on Nigerian Twitter.

Featured24 reports that this comes after human rights activist, Segun Awosanya, took to his official handle on the micro-blogging platform to accuse the journalist of threatening Seyitan Babatayo, the woman who accused singer D’banj of rape.

This newspaper recalls that Benjamin Ese had on June 3 in a Twitter thread accused Nigerian popular musician, Oladapo Daniel Oyebanjo also known as D’banj of raping Babatayo in her Lagos hotel room.

The alleged rape, according to Ese, who is said to be a friend of Ms. Babatatyo — on December 31, 2018, at an all-white party where D’Banj allegedly offered her friend some money to spend the night which she rejected until he surprisingly showed up in Seyitan’s hotel room at midnight.

This newspaper also reports that, Ms Babatayo in a letter written to the police and dated July 17, said she is withdrawing from her petition.

In the letter, Ms Babatayo, cited her reasons to withdraw from the case as personal.

However, following her withdrawal, Mr Awosanya popularly known as Segalink took to Twitter to accuse Kiki Mordi of 'playing the role of the hitman' to threaten Babatayo.

“Kiki Mordi is playing the role of the hitman under the auspices of the Coven sending threats to Seyitan and myself. We have it all on record,” he wrote.

“It will end in premium tears for her & their coven and she will be revealed for the monster that she’s become on this agenda. #EndRape,” Mr Awosanya tweeted.

Reacting to the development, the BBC Africa Eye Reporter who did not give a detailed response to the accusation said “if you didn’t hear from me or a statement signed by me, it’s not my truth.”

She said; “Guys I’m blocked by Sega I definitely can’t see the tantrums he’s throwing. I wish him peace. In the meantime he has my number and email and if I have committed a crime against him surely a man like Sega would know what to do.

“In case you’re wondering what my response to anything he’s saying is; if you didn’t hear from me or a statement signed by me, it’s not my truth.”

Kiki Mordi, the once celebrated reporter who was praised for her heroic report on the pervasive nature of sexual harassment of Nigerian women in universities in the country, has now turned to the enemy of Nigerians on Twitter.

Meanwhile, the lawyer of Dʼbanj, Mike Ozekhome (SAN), to has said despite Ms Babatayo's withdrawal from the petition, the singer is forging ahead with the N1.5bn libel suit filed against the accuser.

Nairaland / General / Nigerians Drag Black American For Over Reply To A Nigerian by CallMeDrino: 8:15pm On Jun 23, 2020
A Black American has been dragged mercilessly for insulting a Nigerian on Twitter.

The African American woman told a Nigerian on Twitter during an argument: "I’m not about to argue with an African that WiFi gone be off soon."

And Nigerians descended on the African American Twitter user by mocking her about the racial injustice in America.

DenreleDave:
My fellow guys, I know how it feels when a lady turns down your request.... I have been in your shoes before and I can tell how its hurts shocked

Nevertheless, don't be bothered because a lady turned you down, what you should focus on is how to improve your self so that when she sees you in the next coming years, she will envy you and want a comeback with you...

Example: I have an ex that I loved so much then.. I did everything to please her and she still fvcked up later... That was 2015... But now, I can't see her naked and get erection.... She Don fat and look less beautiful than b4.....

2ndly, there is this lady I like so much during my ND days, she was in business admin, I was in banking and finance but our lecture hall is beside each other... Very beautiful and nice shape..

Today, I saw her in the bank... I think she is married and she Don fat small... I began to wonder if this is the same lady I trip for then in school.....

So guys, focus on getting better than b4... Don't feel sad bcox she turned u down.... U may see her 3 years later and thank God that u never approached her......

Note: all I'm saying is don't waste ur useful life wanting to please a lady.. Develop ursef and see ladies striving to please you.

Be wise... Focus on ur life rather than shaping ursef for a woman to accept u

Incel biggest dreams cheesy

Enough of this pandering by these establishments, kneeling, black out squares won’t stop racism
Nancy kneel but needed help to stand up, too bad she ought to relinquish her position as house speaker
80 years old - 33 years in national politics and she’s blaming trump

Nancy - 17th term as a congressman
Trump - 1st term as a president



He has done 3 things that’ll make black Americans be on a level playing field with other races

Historical Funding of HBCU
historical black employment
The first Step Act

And immediately after Floyd’s death, before the protests he directed FBI and DOJ to get involved Incase the cop escape state law, he won’t escape federal law... I bet you don’t know all this cause you’ve been programmed to hate on the man

When ANTIFA hijacked the riot, what did he do? He declared them domestic terrorist, rolled out NATIONAL GUARDS into the street and called governors to maintain law and order... did you see anything like riot since then?

And for your info, the wall he’s building will help Africa cause if humans are still allowed to cross the southern border illegally, there are high chances that Latinos (Central America & south America) will pass through this routes than Africans will. are you willing to fly to Mexico to be transported through the southern border by cartels ? This has helped blacks community in America because an employer will rather employ an illegal alien that’ll be paid below the minimum wage, use for odd jobs and that he’ll be able to dismiss arbitrarily ( which led to increase in black employment) but I don’t know why your brain has been programmed to hate on him... follow another news source apart from CNN... it’ll help

I wish to ask what Obama did during his 8 years to curb racism but I won’t grin

PS- I didn’t formulate that on my own before you masturbate unnecessarily on my post, a black American explained that to me


Lmao... A black American?... While your nation need to be fixed, you're here defending someone else's President grin...

You carry another person's matter for head while you carry yours for hand.. SMH

When it comes to Nigeria matter, I bet you always keep kwayet cause.. Nawa
