Romance / Fiancé And Fiancée Are Different Words? by Fortune2016(m): 4:40am On Sep 26, 2021
If you’ve ever wondered whether it was spelled fiancé or fiancée, well, they’re both correct. They’re both correct because they are actually different terms.

English borrowed them from variants of the French verb fiancer (meaning “to get engaged”) in the mid-19th century. The masculine (fiancé) and feminine (fiancée) noun forms were both imported by English speakers, even though English doesn’t typically use gendered word endings. The extra E at the end is what denotes fiancée is feminine.

The terms ultimately derive from the Latin fidare, literally meaning “to trust.”

When do you use fiancé and fiancée?
But which form should you use, and when?

If you want to keep it traditional, the masculine form fiancé is typically used to describe “an engaged man,” while the feminine form fiancée is used to describe “an engaged woman.” Pronunciation of both fiancé and fiancée is identical.

Because English doesn’t have word endings that connote gender, differentiating between the male and the female betrothed seems unnecessary to modern English speakers. Especially given the increased social awareness of non-binary gender issues, the difference between fiancé and fiancée feels a bit old-fashioned and out-of-date.

For those who don’t want to choose between the terms, there appears to be a growing trend toward using fiancé as the gender-neutral form for both a man and a woman.

How can you say how much isn't important?

You want to compare a 9% tax to a 34% tax?

Then you must pay health insurance?


Commentor, if you know much Nigerians pay as taxes you will surprise

The massive population of Nigeria alone makes it elaborate that taxes paid in total in Nig is high

Let's assume its 90% like you said
Then where are the infrastructures, basic amenities?

Instead the opposite is the order of the day
looting of public funds

If they can use the money generated in Nig judiciously

Then Nig will be a better place to live in

No body absolutely will want to leave the chores of Nig for Europe

But Nig is desolate.. God heal our land

A Nigerian lady dumped Christianity to marry a native doctor. The lady who was a prayer warrior shares her story and how she’s enjoying her marriage.

In an interview with BBC News Pidgin, Lolo Ebelechukwu Obi said she has no regrets over her decision to switch religions.

Obi recalled that one certain day she had visited the man’s shrine when he told her of the ‘spirits’ prophecy of their union.

After debating it with her mother, Obi eventually gave in as she would later find out there was a calling to be a traditionalist upon her.

The lady expressed joy at being a traditionalist, stressing that those who had mocked the move before are now celebrating with her.

Prominent Lagos socialite Ehi Ogbebor has finally dumped the chairman of Lagos State NURTW MC Oluomo after he was accused of impregnating a Yoruba actress.
It was disclosed by an Instagram blogger, Gistlovers that while MC Oluomo was publicly displaying his love with Ehi Ogbebor on social media, he was also dating Yoruba actress Mariam Omo VC.

Gistlover also revealed that actress Olayinka Solomon, one of MC Oluomo’s side chick before her marriage, introduced Mariam to the Oluomo.

Olayinka Solomon had introduced his friend to MC Oluomo for a one night stand, but things took a different turn as her friend fell pregnant for him.

According to the blogger, MC Oluomo confided in Olayinka Solomon that if the pregnancy news gets to the media, it will ruin his political ambitions.

This led to a fight between Olayinka Solomon and her friend Mariam, and she advised MC Oluomo to stop giving Maria money.

The blogger wrote: Hello tueh tueh, E don happen o Meet MC Oluomo(Ehi’s boyfriend)Latest baby mama, Her name is Mariam Omo VC and she is a Yoruba Actress. The matter dey very messy as Ehi sef don dey vex say oga knack person belle during their social media display of love.

Azeemokoya:
Miss Abuja, Oluchi Madubuike, has won the coveted Most Beautiful Girl in Nigeria (MBGN) pageant for 2021. She was among the 36 contestants who participated in the annual event organized by Silverbird Group to select the queen who will go on to represent Nigeria at the Miss World Pageant.

The event was held at Eko Hotel and Suites on September 18.

Abuja residents were elated that their representative at the beauty pageant won the coveted crown as Madubuike wil fly Nigeria’s flag at the world event which will hold in Puerto Rico in December 2021.

Besides Madubuike, other state winners who carted away prizes were Miss Anambra, Miss Bauchi, and Miss Bayelsa, respectively, and will also represent Nigeria at different global beauty pageants.

The winner of the MBGN has since been inundated with congratulatory messages and expectations of more opportunities for the beauty queen as she represents Nigeria in the next one year.

Reactions to Madubuike’s win
Nnaemeka Enemchukwu said, ‘’She deserves the most beautiful girl in Nigeria. They judge based on facial beauty, brains, pageantry professionalism, talents, and future marketability.

Ologunwa Oyinkansola commented, ‘’The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mode. But the true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. Besides, you all need to stop with the negative comments. Be an encourager. The world has plenty of critics already. She deserves the crown and that’s on period. And I say it out with my full chest. She is beautiful.

Queen Ihowa posted, ‘’Those people saying she is not beautiful, make una leave her like that, Beauty is not just about facial appearance but your level of intelligence.’’

Health / Benefits Of Getting A COVID-19 Vaccine by Fortune2016(m): 5:31am On Sep 20, 2021
COVID-19 vaccines are safe
COVID-19 vaccines were developed using science that has been around for decades.
COVID-19 vaccines are not experimental. They went through all the required stages of clinical trials. Extensive testing and monitoring have shown that these vaccines are safe and effective.

COVID-19 vaccines have received and continue to undergo the most intensive safety monitoring in U.S. history. Learn more about how federal partners are ensuring COVID-19 vaccines work.
COVID-19 vaccines are effective

COVID 19-vaccines are effective. They can keep you from getting and spreading the virus that causes COVID-19. Learn more about the different COVID-19 vaccines.
COVID-19 vaccines also help keep you from getting seriously ill even if you do get COVID-19.
Getting vaccinated yourself may also protect people around you, particularly people at increased risk for severe illness from COVID-19.
Delta Variant

The Delta variant causes more infections and spreads faster than earlier forms of the virus that causes COVID-19. It might cause more severe illness than previous strains in unvaccinated people.

Vaccines continue to reduce a person’s risk of contracting the virus that cause COVID-19, including this variant.
Vaccines continue to be highly effective at preventing hospitalization and death, including against this variant.
Fully vaccinated people with breakthrough infections from this variant appear to be infectious for a shorter period.
Get vaccinated and wear masks indoors in public spaces to reduce the spread of this variant.

Once you are fully vaccinated, you can start doing more
After you are fully vaccinated for COVID-19, you can resume many activities that you did before the pandemic.
CDC recommends that fully vaccinated people wear a mask in public indoor settings if they are in an area of substantial or high transmission.

Fully vaccinated people might choose to mask regardless of the level of transmission, particularly if they or someone in their household is immunocompromised or at increased risk for severe disease, or if someone in their household is unvaccinated. People who are at increased risk for severe disease include older adults and those who have certain medical conditions, such as diabetes, overweight or obesity, and heart conditions.

People are not considered fully vaccinated until 2 weeks after their second dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna COVID-19 vaccine, or 2 weeks after a single-dose of Johnson & Johnson’s Janssen COVID-19 vaccine. You should keep using all the tools available to protect yourself and others until you are fully vaccinated.

Learn more about COVID-19 vaccination for people with underlying medical conditions or weakened immune systems.
COVID-19 vaccination is a safer way to help build protection
Get vaccinated regardless of whether you already had COVID-19. Evidence is emerging that people get better protection by being fully vaccinated compared with having had COVID-19. One study showed that unvaccinated people who already had COVID-19 are more than 2 times as likely than fully vaccinated people to get COVID-19 again.

Learn more about the clinical considerations for people were treated for COVID-19 with monoclonal antibodies or convalescent plasma, or history of multisystem inflammatory syndrome in adults or children (MIS-A or MIS-C).
COVID-19 is still a threat to people who are unvaccinated. Some people who get COVID-19 can become severely ill, which could result in hospitalization, and some people have ongoing health problems several weeks or even longer after getting infected. Even people who did not have symptoms when they were infected can have these ongoing health problems.
Immunity after COVID-19 vaccination

There is still a lot we are learning about COVID-19 vaccines and CDC is constantly reviewing evidence and updating guidance. We don’t know how long protection lasts for those who are vaccinated. What we do know is that COVID-19 has caused very serious illness and death for a lot of people.

If you get COVID-19, you also risk giving it to loved ones who may get very sick. Getting a COVID-19 vaccine is a safer choice.
People who have a condition or are taking medications that weaken their immune system may not be fully protected even if they are fully vaccinated. They should continue to take all precautions recommended for unvaccinated people, including wearing a well-fitted mask, until advised otherwise by their healthcare provider.

None of the COVID-19 vaccines can make you sick with COVID-19
None of the COVID-19 vaccines contain the live virus that causes COVID-19 so a COVID-19 vaccine cannot make you sick with COVID-19. Learn more Facts about COVID-19 Vaccines
Celebrities / Re: I Am Destined To Marry Tonto Dikeh”– Actor Uche Maduagwu Declares by Fortune2016(m): 5:17am On Sep 20, 2021
Aboks:
Popular controversial Nollywood actor, comedian and influencer Uche Maduagwu has opened up about marrying fellow popular Nollywood actress, brand influencer and model Tonto Dikeh in an Instagram post he recently made.

Uche Maduagwu declared his intentions to marry Tonto Dikeh while shading and taking jabs at actor Jim Iyke, businessman Obi Cubana and actor Zubby Micheal.

The controversial Nollywood actor asked no one to beg him as he is firm on his decision to get married to Tonto Dikeh. Revealing his intentions, Uche Maduagwu said that single moms are the best and they should be respected and honoured.

It is worthy to note that Tonto Dikeh is a single mother who has taken up the role to be her son’s father and mother after she divorced his father Olakunle Churchill.

Uche Maduagwu also revealed that he won't be inviting Jim Iyke, Obi Cubana and Zubby Micheal to his traditional marriage, warning them not turn his wedding to ‘Alex Oba road’, which is where the flamboyant burial of Obi Cubana’s late mother that witnessed the presence of many business moguls and creams of society took place.

Please nobody should beg me because me don make up my mind to put smiles on the face of this great woman of God. Why do you think Jim Iyke dey do wahala with me? Single moms are the best, and they should be honored and respected.

https://news-af.feednews.com/news/detail/3f1609940e88149105f388c94c1d0009?client=news

The most important part i enjoyed was when he said

That single moms are the best and they should be respected and honoured.


Most single moms has been thru hell and back
They now know their mistakes if any and wouldn't want to trade that path anymore
So any man wanting to take advantage of them negatively should back off
