Why senate invited Sagay Leke Baiyewu, Abuja The Senate has asked the Chairman, Presidential Advisory Committee Against Corruption, Prof. Itse Sagay (SAN), to name the persons with questionable character in the upper chamber of the National Assembly.
The lawmakers, who took turns to take a swipe at Sagay at the plenary on Wednesday, berated the Law scholar for using derogatory words on the Senate.
While raising a point of order, the Deputy Majority Leader, Senator Bala Ibn Na’Allah, made reference to Sagay’s comments in reaction to the protest by the Senate against the retention of Mr Ibrahim Magu as the Acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission despite the rejection of his nomination by the lawmakers. Several senators, at the plenary on Tuesday, spoke against the consideration of a letter from the Presidency requesting legislative approval for the nomination of 27 Resident Electoral Commissioners for the Independent National Electoral Commission. They insisted that the process be abandoned until Magu was removed. Na’Allah, on Wednesday, quoted Sagay’s comment in the Wednesday edition of The PUNCH, where he said what the Senate did on the RECs was “childish and irresponsible.” The lawmaker also criticised Sagay for saying the Senate was filled with people of questionable character, who put their personal interest ahead of that of the nation. Na’Allah urged the Senate to ask Sagay to appear before the Committee on Ethics, Privileges and Public Petitions and name the lawmakers he was referring to. President of the Senate, Senator Bukola Saraki, who presided over the plenary, referred Na’Allah’s petition to the panel, which was mandated to report back in four weeks.

I love the way this guy dey worry o. But ebi like say him dey fear wetin happen to Aunty Kemi.

Wow. This post speaks directly to me. I never understood the qualities my girl had are so rare until i saw this post and the reaction some girls are giving. Make I do go put ring for dat finger before another sharp guys snatches her away.

For over a year now Google have refused to approve my site. Everyday they give me new excuses for not approving it. Anyway i have dumped them and comfortably using alternativeadvert.com. Here is my blog... http://xwondahmix.com

The same story I was told years ago. If you want to sell u ebook tell us u want to and stop deceiving people. No business works without investment. So the data and fuel you buy to do the business no be money abi?

CHARLOE:
Don't mind all these pastor worshipers running their mouth here. D so called mog is using his money n power to oppress a courageous investigative journalist, (which we seriously lack in this country by d way) Investigative journalist curb d excesses of politicians & religious leaders.
How are we even sure there's no iota of truth in d story?

I don't get it. The same set of people who are criticizing Sulieman for not speaking or not charging Otobo to court are also saying Ibiyomie did the wrong thing and is trying to shut journalists up. I believe Kemi is not telling us the whole truth about what went wrong. What if she is trying to gain public sympathy? Let us all wait until the case is taken to court, because you cannot be remanded without court order - not somebody of her caliber.

Kemen has opened up on what happened at the BBN house that led to his disqualification. The evicted housemate insisted that there is more to the viral video.

Recall that Kemen was disqualified on Sunday 5, 2017, for sexually touching Tboss without her content while she was asleep.

While speaking with Media Room Hub, the disqualified housemate said he got himself entangled in a situation the audience misunderstood. He further added that he hopes TBoss will embrace the truth when there is no 25 million naira at stake.

While sharing his own side of the story Kemen told Media Hub that; "First of all, I will jump in to defend TBoss' side of the story in the sense that I think she spoke out of pressure, because viewers can't really tell what happens in the house. Like I said, there is a game side of it, there is an extreme pressure side of it."

While explaining the controversial viral video that led to his disqualification, Kemen further added.

"I regret that a lot of people felt sad, felt disappointed in how I left the house and when I left the house, the circumstances that surrounded my leaving the house."

Kemen who also apologized to his fans added that; "I apologize to my fans that expected me to stay longer in the house. I apologize to every woman that perceived the video in a light that hurt their feelings. But to that story, there is a reality, and things are not always the way they

When asked if Tboss gave him green light he replied; "The perception around the video has become a reality to a lot of people and the last thing I want to sit down here and do is to sit down here an be defensive."

Kemen disqualified for making unwanted sexual moves on Tboss

He further added; "The truth lies in the fact that I got myself entangled in a situation that was misunderstood. But, the honest truth about what happened under the covers lies between two people; me and TBoss.

“And, I only hope that whenever she is out of the house, when there is no 25 million naira stake, I hope she will be able to embrace the truth about the reality surrounding the video.

Kemen who took his stand that everything was a game in the house added; "I will still go back to my statement, the Big Brother show is a game, and most of the things that happened in the house was a game. But then, we just had a way of using the game and the reality to just make the game interesting. And while in the house, it was a cordial relationship that I had with TBoss; one that I don't regret. "

Who do you believe?

Am i d only one noticing nobody has lived here for months/years?

I agree with some of your points op. I understand men have the tendency to cheat. I knew my dad cheated on my lovely mum, which made dem fight often. Because of what he did i vowed never to cheat on any girl i date. Trust me. I hv been with my girl for the past 6 years (we grew up together as friends) and i have not for once cheated on her. That doesnt mean i never had crush on other girls most times but i held my ground and stuck to my promise

She try

While I commend what this guy did, many people do not understand the meaning of words -GENIUS. Disassembling and assembling electronics is what many kids out there do. I have seen a kid who designed and assembled a car using old bathroom slippers, motors and batteries. Our kids have passion for electronics, but they are not encouraged. I read an article that says Chinese children start making radios when they are 8.

FreshShavedBalls:
Nice list!
How is dreaming embarassing though?

have you ever slept with someone who kept talking in their dreams?
I had a roommate who does that often. I have also experienced a case where a guy will just shout in his dream "Jesus Jesus Jesus" but when you ask him he will deny untill he opened up one day the he has nightmares and even though he knew he was dreaming, he cannot wake up.

DrayZee:
Dude, pick one: 'Bodies do' or 'Body does'...preferably the latter.

Lets show this to others.

"Glorious exist" Am I the only one seeing this?

Humans can teach their bodies to do amazing things like memorize the whole textbook or run 100 meters in less than 10 seconds. But what about the things your body does by accident? These other things you never celebrate; these are things that sometimes embarrass you. The things you don’t want to talk about that are totally natural.

In our fun facts for the week, we shall be discussing top 10 things your body does but you can’t control.

10 Forgetting Why You Walked into a Room



This is something we rarely discuss with others. I’m talking about walking into a room, and then totally forgetting about the purpose of your journey in that room. Sounds familiar?

The reason for this phenomenon apparently, all comes down to the doorway, it has been termed the doorway effect. Scientists found out that people were three times more likely to forget piece of information if they had to walk through a doorway before remembering it. What happens is your brain sees doorway as a boundary. In other words what happens before the doorway can stay there.

9. Gleeking


This isn’t bursting into song and dance at any opportunity. This happens when you accidentally shoot a gush of saliva from under your tongue like a snake spitting. Gleeking as a word has been around since the 1500 and even crops up in Shakespeare’s Henry V. It happens when saliva builds up in your mouth maybe because you’ve eaten something sour. When you yawn, you may accidentally squeeze the saliva gland under your tongue and whoosh there it goes. Ever experienced this before? Always cover your mouth when you yawn.

8. Blushing


Many of us might not be familiar seeing our cheeks go red, but we are definitely familiar with the word. We’ve all been there you’re in a difficult situation and your cheeks go a dark shade of red showing the world that you’re not okay. Is it embarrassment, anger, or just your body’s way of handling pressure?

Charles Darwin called blushing the most peculiar of human expressions and the reason for it is still unknown to this day. Some scientists believe it developed as a way of submitting to dominant people in the society, others believe it’s an internal reaction to anger or way for people to find out if someone is lying. Either way there may be a silver lining for those who blush.

A team of Dutch psychologists tested 130 undergraduate students at the University of Groningen; and discovered that people are more likely to forgive and viewed favorably if the person who committed the embarrassing act is visibly blushing. Dont think this is a get-out-of-jail-free card bow it’s unlikely to work all the time

7. Hypnagogic Jerk



This is the technical definition for something you’ve most likely wondered about in the past. It refers to when you shudder and twitch as you drift off to sleep. Sometimes you do so violently. It causes you to wake, but can be pretty unsettling especially if you’re watching someone else do it. Hypnagogic means the period of time when you’re falling asleep by the way.

Scientists are not 100-percent sure, why these jerks happen but there are a lot of theories. Some believe it’s caused by stress or an unhealthy lifestyle. Another interesting one is that your primate brain mistakes falling asleep for falling out of a tree so jerk to your wake to take action. Studies claim that 70 percent of people experience hypnagogic jerk when they fall asleep. Have you ever noticed yourself doing this?

6. Yawning


It’s one of those things we all do but we hate to be caught doing it. We also hate it when other people yawn in front of us; but why do we yawn? Scientists used to believe it was to take more oxygen into your lungs and to keep your body awake and alert. They now believe that yawning is your body’s way of cooling down the brain. Yawning brings in a burst of cold air, which is kind to the brain pushing out excess heat that’s why you feel more alert when yawning. Why is yawning contagious though that we don’t know.

5. Being Ticklish

Image result for tickling

If you’re a ticklish person you’re probably twitching just thinking about it. Why do we do it? Evolutionary biologists and neuroscientist believe that we love it when we’re tickled because the part of the brain that tells us to laugh when we experience a light touch is also the same part that tells us to expect a painful sensation.

There are numerous hypotheses attempting to explain this. In the late 90s a scientist called Christine Harris did a lot of ticklish experiments and came up with one idea; that tickling evolved to help children develop combat skills.

When you tickle your child, he will to run away; teaching them how to evade an attacker as painlessly as possible. Meanwhile they’re laughing and smiling so you can just carry on doing it reinforcing the practice. So keep tickling kids teaches him self defense apparently

4. Hiccups

We get hiccups from time to time. Although hopefully not like Charles Osborn who hiccupped 68 years making the Guinness book of records. Again, no one knows why you hiccup and I’m sure if they did Charles might want to know.

Some scientists believe it evolved as a way for babies to expel air from their stomachs so they could take on more milk. Another study in 2012 argued that hiccupping started even earlier with our amphibian ancestors.

Amphibians use a technique similar to hiccupping to push water over their gills among the crazy techniques to try and get rid of them. No one knows how you get rid of hiccups either do you except by popular theory of drinking more water.

3. Shivers Down the Spine


It happens to all of us you’re in a dangerous or stressful situation and you feel a cold chill go down the length of your spine; your hair may stand on end and you may also get goose bumps. This happens because in times of intense pressure your brain releases a burst of adrenaline to help the brain deal with this situation.

However music can also make you feel shivers down the spine this is because when you hear a piece of music that affects you emotionally, your brain is flooded with dopamine, the same chemical that is released by sex and good food

2. The Placebo Effect


Have been sick and the doctor gives you a pill and tells you, you’ll be fine and you get better but however found out later that the pill had no medication in it and it was just sugar? What’s happened is the placebo effect. You can trick yourself into getting better.

A 2010 survey showed that 50 percent of doctors have prescribed placebos to their patients. So why does this work? One theory is that we really want to show a doctor how great we are so our unconscious minds suppresses any sickness we may have. People have also used the placebo effect to sleep better, lose weight and boost their productivity. The placebo effect is a real-world demonstration of your brains awesome power.

1. Dreaming


Where would we be without dreams? Our nights would be much duller, boring and songwriters would struggle for things to write about. But what do we know about dreaming? Well we know you dream during the rapid eye movement known as REM section of your sleep. REM usually happens about 17 minutes after you fall asleep and lost 20 to 30 minutes. Typically you go through REM sleep three or four times during a normal night sleep. Your brain is active and your eyes move rapidly. Apart from that we actually don’t know that much. People have tried to analyze dreams since time began, but still we don’t know why we see a series of images and situations when we sleep.

Sigmund Freud believed that dreams were our unconscious desires playing themselves out. Some experts believe it’s our brain tidying itself up and emptying itself of useless thoughts. Many religion also believes that dreams are ways of God speaking to us. Then there are also lucid dreams where you are aware that you are dreaming and can control your dreams. There are even studies of monitor patients who [were] rigged up and observed to be in deep sleep. Despite being able to signal to the scientist that they were awake with a twitch of their eyelid, if you’d really like to have a lucid dream because who wouldn’t just imagine what you could do then. There are several suggested approaches; unfortunately though the science behind this remains inconclusive. So there we are.

So share with us what embarrassing things your body does that you cant control?

What are mango worms?
First, the mango worm goes by many names. It is technically a fly larva and it also goes by the names mango fly, putzi fly and tumbu fly depending on where you are.

Where are mango worms found?

Mango worms are found throughout tropical areas of sub-Saharan Africa, but is more common in certain regions (Central Africa, for example). You could come across them in another part of the world, too, but only if a human or animal traveled while infected with the worms.

The worm works like this:

Adult female worm lays a few hundred eggs into the soil OR onto some damp clothing that is hanging out to dry.
The larvae penetrate the skin of the host and take up residence in the subcutaneous tissue, a layer of skin that has fat and connective tissue filled with blood vessels and nerves.
Then they grow and fatten up.
After 8-12 days, a boil will have formed.
It will itch and then get increasingly painful before it…
actually opens up so the worm can come out to play.
The worm then falls to the ground where it buries itself in order to go into its final stage of growth before turning into a fly.
Got it? Good.

How can mango worm be prevented?
Mango worm is generally very uncommon for travelers to come across, but there are certainly a few steps you can take to really minimize your risk. For one, do not walk around barefoot on soil. By the same token, don’t roll around in the soil. Never a good idea.

As far as your clothes go, if you are in an area where mango worm is prevalent, it would be best to machine dry your clothes or iron them after leaving them out to line dry. The heat will effectively kill the larvae.

Mango worm treatment
There is no medication you can take that will kill the mango worm. You simply have to wait for it to come out. Alternatively, you can cover the boil with vaseline or a similar product and wait till the worm pops out on its own (the vaseline will cut off its access to oxygen). In rare cases, a visit to a clinic may be required to extract the worm.

Mango worms do not pose a serious health risk. They do not carry other diseases with them and they do not cause complications themselves outside of the boil that they create. It is important, however, to remember to thoroughly disinfect the area after the worm has emerged from the body.

For a (graphic) visual demonstration of mango worm extraction, have a look at the video below.


Mango worms should not be your primary travel health concern when traveling. In most cases, travelers will not come across them. That said, you should always visit a travel health clinic before traveling to your destination to become familiar with the possible health risks that exist there. If mango worm is present, the doctor will be able to offer additional advice on the level of risk, prevention, and treatment
