If confirmed, then this must be a big blow to GEJ's re-election bid. Sule Lamido of Jigawa is the Presidential Campaign Co-ordinator in the North West. If he doesn't have support of his cabinet, how can he win sufficient votes in other states in the zone?

I'm a Gunner too. I think Debuchy has just been unlucky with injuries. While Alexis has proven to be a good acquisition, I think Gabriel Paulista will prove his worth overtime.

Too bad. The guy died entertaining others. That is the irony of it.

Why do some people complain about length of some posts here? Is it people don't have reading as hobby again? Meanwhile, this research is something I can relate with. I had more women willing to make out with me just a month or so to my wedding.

It is a known fact that the APC hasn't really counted much on votes from the SE & SS. Apart from Rivers where Amaechi will want to prove his relevance (ultimately, without much success), APC will struggle to record 25% of the votes in these regions. However, the big question remains if the party's (non)performance in these regions will have any bearing on the overall outcome.

Funny. However, Arsenal Ain't That Fragile Again. United & Spurs Have Both Proven To Be Less Reliable This Season.

What is your view?

This is strange. Really strange. I can't yet figure how this is.

OP. Why have you chosen to invite insults unto yourself? Your statements are at best, needless & uncalled for.

Things are a little different now.

That is a good ideal. However, any candidate who makes such a promise must be taken to be deceitful. Even among so-called homogeneous groups, there is obvious. How then do you stop it among heterogeneous tribes. In the meantime, I pray we get to a point where competence will play a greater role in voters' choice than tribe.

brownskingirl. I'll recommend 2 things; 1. increase their daily feeds consumption to 125g/birds. Only for 2 weeks. 2. check the ventilation of your pen. And be sure the birds ain't crowded i.e not more than the recommended number per cell. Success.

bondingman & temitemi1, why not give us your own statistical analysis instead of just outrightly dismissing this painstaking, albeit controversial efforts? Thanks as you oblige, please.

She provides a peculiar comical relief in an otherwise, combative electioneering campaign.

Good piece. Noteworthy.

OP. Are you a distributor of some Noni-based products? You have been creating threads on the fruit. However, it remains something we can't readily get in Nigeria.

Good.

Breastfeeding bumps up babies' IQs
Breastfeeding your baby for longer
could see them go on to become
more successful in later life.
Babies who are breastfed for a longer
period of time are more likely to have
higher IQs in later life, new research
has found.
Dr Bernardo Lessa Horta, of the
Federal University of Pelotas in Brazil,
and his team followed around 6,000
newborn babies from all walks of life
for 30 years to analyse the long-term
effects of breastfeeding, documenting
their intake during early childhood.
Participants, now in their early 30s,
were also given an IQ test as
researchers simultaneously looked
into around 3,500 individual's
educational achievements and
income.
From the results, experts determined
that the longer a little one is breastfed
- up to 12 months - the more likely
they'll be to have longer schooling,
higher intelligence levels as an adult
and higher earnings in the
professional world.
Overall, a tot who was breastfed for at
least 12 months, saw its IQ go up by
four points and spent a year longer in
education.
"Our study provides the first evidence
that prolonged breastfeeding not only
increases intelligence until at least the
age of 30 years but also has an
impact both at an individual and
societal level by improving educational
attainment and earning ability," Dr
Bernardo said.
"The likely mechanism underlying the
beneficial effects of breast milk on
intelligence is the presence of long-
chain saturated fatty acids (DHAs)
found in breast milk, which are
essential for brain development.
"Our finding that predominant
breastfeeding is positively related to
IQ in adulthood also suggests that the
amount of milk consumed plays a
role."
It's long been known that breast milk
benefits a baby's health, helping them
fight off illnesses such as chest
infections and stomach bugs. It can
even aid in preventing conditions
such as asthma and allergies. But as
seen above, there are more pluses to
this method than originally thought.
Dr Colin Michie, chairman of the Royal
College of Paediatrics and Child
Health's Nutrition Committee,
describes this study as a "powerful"
one, mainly down to its high sample
size.
"It is important to note that
breastfeeding is one of many factors
that can contribute to a child's
outcomes, however this study
emphasises the need for continued
and enhanced breastfeeding
promotion so expectant mothers are
aware of the benefits of
breastfeeding," he noted.

brownskingirl. Ok. How many grams of feeds do you give each bird daily?

Perpetual459. Prepare for 9 bags of feeds. That should take them for 5 weeks at 65g/bird/day. The cage to house 100 birds shouldn't be more than 65k. You may need to do a couple of vaccination. Success.

Perpetual459. How many POL birds are you looking at?

brownskingirl. Tell us a little more about your birds. Are they on the floor or in cages? Is the weight largely uniform? Are they healthy? What vaccines have you given them & when? Meanwhile, for the light, you can get a number of rechargeable lamps. Success.

A good development. Democratic culture is being entrenched in Nigeria. I only hope the citizens will follow suit.

mickyeddi. A valid point you have here. However, the problem with Nigeria goes beyond a weak press. Even when Nigerians see the light, most still prefer to remain in the dark. Sometimes, I fear that the psyche of an average Nigerian has been irreparably damaged.

And what do men say?

Is this still open, please? I believe I can be a good fit.

arsetalks. That's an intelligent response there. I wish majority of Nigerians are like you. We'll have fewer charlatans in power. Kudos.

Politics of intolerance. Our politicians should learn that in democratic setting, differences of opinions are allowed. A President/governor isn't a monarch that can't be traditionally questioned.
