The belief that early marriage comes as a burden and an incomprehensible commitment, is not really a standard that applies to all. So, here are some benefits that explain why marrying early can be a good decision.

1. The perfect age saga: Marriage is more about the ‘perfect person’ than the ‘perfect age’. Many argue on the necessity of being prepared for marriage. But in reality, you can never be prepared for it whether you are in your 20s, 30s or 40s.
So, if you find your prince charming or dream girl at an early age, then there is no point actually waiting for long to get married. It is all about spending the beautiful moments of your life with the person you love. So, think about finding the right person rather than waiting for the right time to arrive.

2. You get more quality time with each other: The young couples usually do not have the pressure of achieving parenthood immediately after their marriage. In fact, they get enough time to know and understand each other before the biological clock starts ticking. So, when you get married early, you have a lot of time on your hands before you indulge into family planning or saving money for future.
You can enjoy your life with your partner without worrying much about these things. You can see the world together and steer your life the way you want it.

3. More harmonious relationship: You are more likely to be a companion and a friend to your partner rather than just being a husband or a wife. While you would be learning to live life as adults, you would be more flexible with each other and more open to compromise. Also, you will have enough time to adjust with each other’s temperament, and understand one another before you delve into more serious and deeper responsibilities of life. This way, you are likely to be more compatible than the couples who get married late.


4. More lovemaking time: You will get to experience those beautiful moments of cosy lovemaking with your partner more frequently as compared to those who get married late. It surely will help you to feel strongly connected with your partner emotionally as well as physically. And since you do not have the pressure of having kids right after your marriage, there is ample time to thoroughly enjoy this time with each other. Also, many researches show that after having kids, the couples usually experience a dip in their lovemaking activities due to reasons like low energy, lack of time etc.

5. Sharing each milestone: The milestone of achieving parenthood is of course one thing, which every couple experiences together. But when you marry early, there is a lot more that you achieve as well as celebrate together. Whether it is buying your first car, moving in to your own home, achieving success in career- the happiness increases manifold when you have a partner by your side to share these amazing experiences of life.

6. Being a great parent: As you would have spent so much time together, you are expected to share a really strong bond with each other. This level of understanding between the two of you is one of the key requirements of being a great parent. When you attain parenthood in your twenties, you are all the more excited as well as energetic to spend time with your child. On the other hand as you grow old, you might be burdened with issues like financial well-being of your family or your own health. This will take away the time from you to be with your child.

It's easy to improve your breath and keep your teeth and gums healthy at the same time. Try these simple steps to make your mouth feel fresh and clean.

1. Brush and floss more often.
Plaque, the sticky buildup on your teeth, collects bacteria that cause bad breath. Trapped food also adds to the problem. Brush your teeth at least two times each day, and floss at least once. If you're concerned about your breath, do both a little more often. Don't overdo things, though. If you brush too hard you can wear down your teeth, making them vulnerable to decay.

2. Rinse your mouth out.
Besides freshening your breath, a mouthwash adds extra protection by getting rid of bacteria. A fresh minty taste can make you feel good. But be sure the mouthwash you choose kills the germs that cause bad breath. Don't just cover up the smell. Rinse daily with a good mouthwash and stop bad breath at its source. You can also help your breath if you swish your mouth with plain water after you eat. It can get rid of food particles that get stuck in your teeth.

3. Scrape your tongue.
The coating that normally forms on your tongue can be a host for smelly bacteria. To get rid of them, gently brush your tongue with your toothbrush. If your brush is too big to comfortably reach the back of your tongue, try a scraper. "They're designed specifically to apply even pressure across the surface of the tongue area. This removes bacteria, food debris, and dead cells that brushing alone can't take care of," says hygienist Pamela L. Quinones, past president of the American Dental Hygienists' Association.

4. Avoid foods that sour your breath.
Onions and garlic are big offenders. But brushing after you eat them doesn't help. The substances that cause their bad smells make their way into your bloodstream and travel to your lungs, where you breathe them out, says dentist Richard Price, DMD, a spokesperson for the American Dental Association. The best way to stop the problem? Don't eat them, or at least avoid them before you go to work or see friends.

5. Kick the tobacco habit.
Besides causing cancer, smoking can damage your gums, stain your teeth, and give you bad breath. Over-the-counter nicotine patches can help tame the urge. If you need a little help, make an appointment with your doctor to talk about quit-smoking programs or prescription medications that can help you give up tobacco for good.

6. Skip after-dinner mints and chew gum instead.
The bacteria in your mouth love sugar. They use it to make acid. This wears down your teeth and causes bad breath. Chew sugarless gum instead. "Gum stimulates saliva, which is the mouth's natural defense mechanism against plaque acids, which cause tooth decay and bad breath," Quinones says.

7. Keep your gums healthy.
Gum disease causes bad breath. Bacteria gather in pockets at the base of teeth, which creates an odor. If you have gum disease, your dentist may suggest you see a periodontist, who specializes in treating it.

8. Moisten your mouth.
You can get tooth decay and bad breath if you don't make enough saliva. If your mouth is dry, drink plenty of water during the day. Chew sugarless gum or suck on sugar-free hard candy. Also try a humidifier at night to moisten the air in your house.

9. See your doctor.
If your bad breath continues despite your best efforts, make an appointment with your doctor. He'll check to see if your problems are related to a medical condition.

These are rights naturally accruable to every person by virtue of his/her existence as a human being. The Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, under Chapter IV enumerates the following as fundamental human rights:-

* Right to life
* Right to dignity of human person
* Right to personal liberty
* Right to fair hearing
* Right to private and family life
* Right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion
* Right to freedom of expression and the press
* Right to peaceful assembly and association
* Right to freedom of movement
* Right to freedom from discrimination on the grounds of ethnic group, place of origin, circumstance of birth, sex, religion or political opinion.
* Right to compensation for property compulsorily acquired.

The above rights are classified under Chapter IV of the Constitution as Fundamental Rights. However, there are other rights under Fundamental Objectives and Directive Principles of State Policy provided under Chapter II of the Constitution. These include the right to:
* Free and compulsory education
* Adequate health care, gainful employment Shelter, food etc

The former are justice-able rights, i.e. citizens could go to court to enforce them if denied. The latter rights are however non-justiceable, i.e. these set of rights are not enforceable in the court.

They are aspirations attainable if and when the State has the resources. However, the Commission believes the two sets of rights are both fundamental and complementary. This is because; the right to life, for instance, is meaningless without gainful employment or food to sustain life in the first place. The Commission has made a strong case for the upgrading of Economic, Social and Cultural rights to fundamental rights. Human Rights are interdependent, interrelated, indivisible and universal.

JAMB Direct Entry Registration Deadline Extended
https://globallords..com/2016/07/jamb-direct-entry-registration-deadline.html

An Egor Chief Magistrates’ Court in Benin, Edo, on Friday sentenced 40-year-old Lucky Idahosa to 14 years imprisonment for raping his 17-year-old daughter.

The Chief Magistrate, Mrs Igho Braimah, jailed the accused after he pleaded guilty to the charge. The convict had in the plea told the court that he committed the act for money ritual.

Braimah said that no matter what a father considered opportunity to become rich, he should not yield to the temptation of nursing idea of having canal knowledge of “his blood’’, let alone “really doing it’’.

Consequently, she sentenced the accused to 14 years jail term. The prosecutor, Mr Osaretin Ogiehon, had told the court that the accused committed the incest sometime in June, 2016.
He said that act, which was done without the consent of the girl, took place at their 37, Upper S and T Barracks Street, Off Uselu-Lagos Road, Benin home.

The prosecutor told the court that the offence contravened section 358 of the Criminal Code.
Led in evidence by the prosecutor, the victim of the incest had told the court that her father gave her concoction, which made her unconscious before he committed the act.

She added that her father warned her not to mention it to anyone.

Its really bothering, i have friends who used "Other Qualification" instead of normal OND, NCE or HND as the qualification obtained.

grateful4life:

Thanks for that!!!

I've considered MTN as my favourite network but they got me losing the trust in them last weekend.

I ran out of data and call-time so i decided to activate an affordable plan that covers Browsing and Calling.

After dialling *142*30*3# which was assigned to my sim, i got 50MB+ 5Mins for #50 Only Valid for 24Hrs.
I was so pleased with this but to my surprise i could only use the 5mins only, the 50 Megabyte wasnt browsing till it expired.

Thank God i didnt activate that of greater amount. Will never try such plan again.

Are you also using the bundle of *142#? Ever regretted buying a data bundle? Share ur story!!!

This is really bothering and it has to be talked about.
Many assumed sport-betting to be a nasty sin, but yet in my area i could see much guys in bet shops.
Is Sport-Betting really a sin? Could it annul ones fasting exercise?

How can it be abolished/reduced?

Things has really changed, from days of getting into a relationship at matured age and now where you boy/girl of within 15years seems to have a lover.

Just to put minds together, how old do you think someone is matured enough to get a LOVER??

Although medical science has not been able to prove the number of disease in the world, it has however shown that some are more deadly than others.

According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), 56 million people died in 2012 from illness causing disease with non-communicable ailments accounting for 68 per cent of deaths globally.
It is widely believed that the most deadly disease in the world is HIV/AIDS. However, science has proven in recent times that there are more deadly disease in the world and here is the top five diseases that kills faster than HIV/AIDS.

1.Cardiovascular Diseases (CVDs)
According to the WHO, cardiovascular diseases is the number one cause of sudden deaths in world apart from road crashes.
CVDs include all illness related to the blood vessels like coronary heart diseases and myocadial infection, often referred to as heart attack.

Risk factors include the tobacco use, unhealthy diet and obesity, physical inactivity and harmful use of alcohol. When last did you do a check up on your heart?

2.Human Papilloma Virus
Commonly referred to as HPVs, this sickness is a group of more than 150 related disease which can be contacted through direct skin-to-skin contact.
It is the most common $exually transmitted disease affecting the genital areas of males and females and can develop into cervical or prostate cancer. There is a preventive vaccine for the common type of HPVs. HPV is transmitted through $exual intercourse.

3.Cancer
This is most dangerous disease which can affect any part of the body. Experts say there are over 100 different types of cancer and they are classified by the type of cell that is initially affected.
This disease harms the body when altered cells divide uncontrollably to form lumps or masses of tissue called tumors. Common examples include bre*$t, lung, prostate and skin cancer.

Ladies, when last did you examine brea$t against lumps?

4.Diabetes
About a decade ago, diabetes was thought to be a disease for the rich but things have changed as medical science has shown that anyone can become diabetic.
Diabetes occur due to the body’s inability to process sugar.
