PoliticsRe: Niger To Start Repatriating Beggars To Their States Of Origin by Coldfeet(f): 11:17am On Aug 31, 2013
bloggernaija: Destitutes should be moved back to the state where their destitution was created.
You cannot export your burden to another man's house.
A man's hand is amputated based on a diabolical sharia law.should it be Lagos state's burden to care for that person .
A little boy becomes a destitute in anambra because Obi has decided to turn the state's treasury over to prop up an unviable fidelity bank.
A little boy from akwa ibom runs to Lagos hoping to become an houseboy finds himself sleeping under a bridge.why should that be fashola's problem if the governor believes building a golf course(when he is not busy stealing ) is more important than building boarding schools ,model colleges and skills acquisition centres.
Why should it be SW problem?
When there are enough destitutes in those states,maybe one day,they will march on their government houses and demand change because it seems the able bodied are incapable of critical and radical action.
Next time , vote right or live with the consequences .
Just like the SW is presently living with the consequences of falling for

I thought this thread is about Niger states decision to remove beggars from their streets? where did it mention Lagos or Anambra and Akwa ibom? Must everything on this Nl turn tribal? A non Nigerian friend of mine says he wonders if all the hate remarks he reads on NL is how we actually view each other in this country? Niger is in the north but am yet to read a northerners view on this move yet SW and SE are already fighting over it! what is it that is actually pitching this 2 regions against each other? I really fear for the kind of society am bringing my children into God help us all.

SportsRe: Iyabo Abade (ex-Falcon) Is Now James Johnson by Coldfeet(f):
Ambiguous Instruments (also known as
atypical Instruments) is a birth defect (or
birth variation) of the sex organs that
makes it unclear whether an affected
newborn is a girl or boy.
This condition
occurs approximately once in every
4,500 births. The baby seems to have
a mixture of both female and male
parts - for example, they may have
both a vulva and testicles. Associated
intersex conditions for male babies
include hypospadias, where the
urethral opening is located in an
unusual position such as the underside
of the penis.

The causes of ambiguous Instruments
include genetic variations, hormonal
imbalances and malformations of the
fetal tissues that are supposed to
evolve into genitals.
Tests (including
ultrasound, x-rays and blood tests) are
needed before the baby's sex can be
identified. Mild forms of ambiguous
Instruments may be characterised by a
large (penis-like) clitoris in baby girls or
undescended testicles in boys.

Sexual determination during
embryo development
A baby's sex is decided at conception.
The mother's egg provides an X
chromosome and the father's sperm
determines the baby's sex by
contributing either an X or Y sex
chromosome. An XX embryo is female
while an XY embryo is male.
Both
female and male embryos develop in
exactly the same way and have
identical gonads and genital parts until
around the eighth week of gestation.
The sexual determination process
includes:

Girls - the internal genital parts
transform into the uterus, fallopian
tubes and vagina. The gonads turn into
ovaries which start producing female
sex hormones. The lack of male
hormones is fundamental in allowing
the development of female Instruments.
Boys - the internal genital parts
transform into the prostate gland and
vas deferens.
The gonads turn into
testes which start producing male sex
hormones. The presence of male
hormones allows the penis and scrotum
to develop.

Different types of ambiguous
Instruments
The different types of ambiguous
Instruments include:
The baby has ovaries and testicles, and
the external genitals are neither clearly
male nor female.
The baby has ovaries and a penis-like
structure or phallus.
The baby has undescended testes and
external female genitals including a
vulva.

A range of causes
For typical genital development, the
gender 'message' must be
communicated from the sex
chromosomes to the gonads. The
gonads must then manufacture
appropriate hormones and the genital
tissues and structures have to respond
to these hormones. Any deviations
along the way can cause ambiguous
Instruments. Some specific causes include:
Androgen insensitivity syndrome
(AIS) - a genetic condition
characterised by the fetal tissue's
insensitivity to male hormones. This
affects genital development. For
example, a newborn may have some of
the female reproductive organs but
also have testicles.

Congenital adrenal hyperplasia
(CAH) - an inherited condition that
affects hormone production. A child
with CAH lacks particular enzymes, and
this deficiency triggers the excessive
manufacture of male hormones. For
example, female genitals are
masculinised.

Sex chromosome disorders - instead
of having either XX or XY sex
chromosomes, a baby may have a
mixture of both ('mosaic'
chromosomes); or specific genes on the
Y chromosome may be inactive; or one
of the X chromosomes may have a tiny
Y segment attached to it. Research shows that
ambiguous Instruments can be caused by
the doubling up of a particular gene
(named WNT-4) on the sex
chromosome.
This variation will
interfere with male sexual development
so that a genetically male baby will
appear female.

Maternal factors - the pregnant
mother may have had an androgen-
secreting tumour while pregnant, and
the excess of this male hormone
affected her baby's genital
development. In other cases, the
placenta may have lacked a particular
enzyme which failed to deactivate male
hormones from the baby as a result,
both the mother and the female baby
were masculinised by the excess of
these hormones.

Diagnosis methods
There are currently no prenatal tests
that can detect ambiguous Instruments.
American research into the WNT-4 gene
suggests that a prenatal test could one
day be developed. Tests performed at
birth to determine the baby's gender
can take about one week and may
include:
Physical examination
Hormone tests using blood, urine or
both
Genetic tests using blood, urine or both
Ultrasound scan
X-rays.

Treatment options
Treatment options to help assign the
baby a definite gender may include:
Parental counselling - successful sex
assignment and identity for the child
depends largely on the attitude of the
parents. It is important that both the
mother and father are fully informed
about their child's condition. Support
groups may provide help in this area.

Surgery - for example, an overly large
clitoris may be trimmed, or a fused
vulva separated, or undescended
testicles relocated into the scrotum.
However, surgical gender assignment
depends heavily on what genital
structures the surgeons have to work
with.
The majority of babies with
ambiguous Instruments have been
brought up as girls. A few operations
may be needed, usually begun in the
child's first year. Further surgery might
be required during adolescence. Some
intersex support groups feel that
surgery is not always the answer,
particularly when the gender of the
child is not clear. Others suggest that
surgery should wait until the child is
old enough to decide for themselves.
However, most medical professionals
advocate early surgical and hormonal
intervention for the sake of clearly
establishing the child’s gender and
sense of belonging in society.
Counselling for the child - the child
needs to be informed and talked to
about their diagnosis in a very careful
way.

Hormone therapy - during their
teenage years, the child may need
hormone supplementation therapy to
help bring on puberty. A child with CAH
will need to have daily hormone
therapy.

Possible long-term problems
Some of the possible problems faced
by a person born with ambiguous
Instruments may include:
Infertility
Problems with sexual functioning
Feelings of insecurity and uncertainty
about their gender identity, such as
feeling like the opposite gender to the
sex that was determined earlier in life.
