"Kimbeghi I have never seen you on a bike haba you too dey trek" This was what tobiloba a departmental mate told me.

During my second year as a student of federal university oye ekiti (Fuoye). It was so tough, Staying for almost everyday without Food, eating what I get not what I want.

I will never forget the 28, 29 and 30th of july 2016 Imagine staying hungry for 3 days depending on fruits. Lol i turn oga daniel in the bible by force.

Trekked from Idofin to phase 2 for those who can relate knows, It is not a joke to walk that distance which is approximately a 40min walk, It
was really terrible.

Everyday while i trekked to school I thought about how to get money, the only visible stuff was Yahoo. Because I had friends that did it and I needed money quickly

"But wait are you sure of this Peter are you not the motivational speaker? you that inspire People with your words" I thought,

Omo forget who motivation help, see how i be na and more over no body will know it if i don't tell them"

Smiling " You be holy yahoo boy" I said to myself.

Few weeks later i called a friend also a student he was surprised, because I was always againt it. Since it was my choice. He accepted to teach me.

He was to buy all i needed with the agreement that I will refund the cash when I hammer...

Did I start at all? No All because I went to church the night before the day I was to start lecture as a student of Yahoocology from a friend in Ikole

Common sense with pastor Titi Edun at Ado Ekiti, the That conference gave me common sense indeed. In Life challenges will come but don't ever let the challenges change who you are.

What do you think about? What are the things you have harboured in the deep core of your heart, I thought about start yahoo for months before I finally decided to start.

You thoughts define you, guide your heart with all deligence.

There was other things i could have done that will fetch me some amount to sustain me.
But I felt it should be big Na yahoo sure pass. Be contented

Who are your friends those you go to for advice? Remember show me your friend and I will tell you who you are. No be me talk ham o.

Finally to the Youth, Fraud is not the next option for you, be patient, I know you need money indeed, but will you do that at the detriment of the other man? Certainly not.

There are legitimate ways of making money online, So be wise, be contented do the right thing.

PoliticsNaija Unusual Reasoning About Atiku Visit To The US by Imranland(op): 9:08am On Jan 18, 2019
I do not want to get involved in all these funny political tirade on social media, but the way some people are jubilating over Atiku’s current visit to the US is making me feel very uncomfortable and I begin to wonder if entry into the US is seen as a major feat for a man of his calibre, then we have a big problem in Naija.

It is so bad that some people posted that he had meeting with the US Secretary of State, displaying one funny character as Mike Pompeo. A beg, de dem don change their Secretary of State ni?

Another blunder was equating Trump International Hotels to the White House, forgetting that even the American President cannot hold any official meeting in any of his private businesses! If you can afford the hotel, anyone can lodge there!

This one that we need prayers and fasting for our aspiring leader to enter US and jubilating from when he obtained the visa to his arrival is giving me serious concern. By the way, is it just coincidental or deliberate that the entry happened during the Government Shutdown? We all know what that means and I just hope something funny would not happen if the Shutdown is resolved while we still have our Oga Atiku on US soil. It is too close for comfort to take such risks just weeks before the election. I don talk my own ooo.

All PDPist and APCist should carry their wahala elsewhere and not on my wall ooo, but me I feel ashamed that the man who needs my vote is celebrating entry to US. Oh I forgot, 12 years is a very long time though and it’s worth celebrating.

Ogede n’baje e lo n’pon!!!!

EducationResumption Tips For 2019/2020 Academic Session by Imranland(op): 11:18am On Jan 07, 2019
As we prepare for 2019/2020 academic session, remember that unscrupulous people are also preparing to cause havoc in the name of election.They need blood for renewal and survival and its up to us to protect our children into the little way we can despite the fact that all protection comes from GOD Please let's consider these few tips

� Don't write your child's name where it can be easily seen.Remember that anyone who calls your child by name is no longer a stranger

�Dont drop your child at the gate and zoom off.Make sure the child enters the school premises

� Always call the teacher or the sch authority later to check if your ward is in class

� inform the school authority if you will be coming late

� Make adequate alternative if you won't be opportuned to go to their school after closing.

� Don't put your total trust in Okada(bikes) riders and keke napep rider'

� If you have children below ten please ensure that there is an older adult to pick them

� Teach your child/children never to walk alone.

�Teach them not to accept ride in the scorching sun

� Teach them to stay in school when there is heavy rain. They are not to walk on gutters during the rain, its base might be faulty

� please let us endeavour to give our children food to school no matter what, they easily get carried away during break begging their friends

� Make sure they carry bottle(s) of water so as not to beg for one in school. It can be disastrous

�reduce the amount you give to them for buying junks. It is especially harmful to their health now. if at all u must give them money, let their teachers know about it

� Finally, teach them to trust in God and pray at all times.

����
I pray that Almighty God guide and protect our children. All attempts of the evil ones shall be frustrated.

We will all reap the fruits of our labour. Aamin

HealthRe: Oka Ori (baby's Soft Spot) by Imranland(op): 1:11pm On Jan 06, 2019
So educative
HealthOka Ori (baby's Soft Spot) by Imranland(op): 1:10pm On Jan 06, 2019
"Before you put that oil in that soft spot on the head of your newborn"....Please read what is "Okà orì" by Dr. Sururah

OKA ORI (BABY'S SOFT SPOT)
I was a fresh medical graduate when one of my aunt told me about her neighbour’s new born child that died of what Yoruba call ‘oka ori’, someone told me it is called "ndawa isi" in Ibo. Someone should tell me the Hausa name. She thereafter asked me what ‘oka ori’ means in medical terms (being a doctor now). Although as naïve as I was then with no practical experience, I ensured I was professional about my answer, I never heard of it before but I knew it sounded like one of those shared myths…

Since I started practicing, I came across few mothers that don’t bother asking for the meaning of ‘oka ori’, they have been handed the standard diagnosis of "Oka" by the grannies or neighbours stat. Their own question is whether they should give "agbo oka" that is native concoction or herbal remedies for the "Oka". Another category of mums have gone beyond that and have started the treatment for "Oka"; how will you know? Once you see a new baby with clean shaven head and sticky blackish substance applied to the scalp toward the front, you are seeing a child undergoing treatment for "Oka". Therefore majority don’t even know what or where the ‘oka ori’ is, but I could deduce from their history to likely referring to either the soft spot (sunken or bulging) on their baby’s head or cranial sutures.

Fast forward to when I gave birth, I was told my child has oka ori after the hair was shaved; will therefore needs concoction; I just laughed and told them politely that my baby has nothing like ‘oka ori’, although it’s hard to correct a widespread shared myth, but my child never took any concoction. My curiousity made me asked what exactly is oka ori, it was the obvious cranial suture that was pointed at…

I therefore concluded in my mind that, for me to correct the shared myth about ‘oka ori’, I need to discuss both the ‘soft spot(anterior fontannelle) and the cranial sutures’.

If you are not from Nigeria, you may be lost from the title alone. The typical Naija Mum knows what I am talking about, especially if you are from the South-Western part of the country, specifically the Yoruba tribe.

So what is this "Oka"?
The Grannies and some mums believe that there is a "hole" or "space" which is "breathing" or pulsating in the head of the new baby which is abnormal. That this soft space is not right and should not be there. Any baby that has this "abnormal space or hole" is diagnosed with "Oka". Some also believe obvious cranial sutures in associated with the hole or space breathing is a serious case of ‘oka’.

For fat, hairy babies, the "hole" is not so apparent and often ignored. However, in smaller babies who are also not gaining weight or perhaps losing weight especially in the 1st ten days of life, the space is very prominent and can even be sunken; such babies are easily labeled as having "Oka" and commenced on all forms of treatment ranging from application of substances on the scalp to drinking herbal remedies. There are lots of myths and beliefs surrounding this "Oka".

So why am I talking about "Oka"?
In addition to my encounter with ‘oka ori’, there was a story shared by a paediatrican. She said during her residency training to become a Paediatrician, she was working at the Children Emergency Room (CHER) at the Lagos University Teaching Hospital when two women rushed in with a baby crying. That is not unusual in CHER. What was terrifying about the day was when she saw the baby rushed in, he was about 2 - 3 months old and for the first time, she was seeing the brain live and direct in a living person who was not being operated. This was not a movie scene! The brain of this baby was completely visible to everyone. What happened?
In the usual fashion, the grandma who came for "omugwo" had made a diagnosis of "Oka" and has prescribed the traditional treatment
which was coating the surface with a black material. Unfortunately, in this scenario, whatever substance was applied was so caustic, it eroded (burnt) away the membrane of the anterior frontanelle and you can see the baby's brain live and direct!!! Of course, this was disastrous....for baby, mother and grandma and even the doctors.

That is why I feel like educating people around me especially mums about this traditional myths and beliefs that are dangerous to children's health. Of course, granny did not mean to harm her precious grandson but she did anyway. That baby had to undergo brain surgery. Of course, he had serious infection of the brain even before and after surgery. Though he did not die, but there are long-term complications he will face all because of someone's ignorance. No wonder, ignorance is more expensive than education.

FACTS TO KNOW ABOUT "OKA"

1. An infant’s skull is made up of six separate cranial (skull) bones:
- Frontal bone
- Occipital bone
- Two parietal bones
- Two temporal bones
These bones are held together by strong, fibrous, elastic tissues called SUTURES.

Two fontanelles usually are present on a newborn’s skull:
- On the top of the middle head, just forward to center (ANTERIOR FONTANELLE) – usually closes between 18 & 24 months. During childbirth, it let the skull changes its shape so that the fetus can easily pass through the birth canal.
- In the back of the middle of the head (POSTERIOR FONTANELLE) – usually closes earlier than the fontanelle

2. Therefore, the "soft hole or space" often erroneously believed to be an abnormality is A NORMAL PART of the baby's head. It is called ANTERIOR FONTANELLE (AF). Every baby has it. It is there to allow along with the small spaces (sutures) between the different bones of the skull to accommodate the baby's brain growth. So it is not "OKA" or any other thing....It is a normal part of the baby's head.

3. The anterior fontanelle (AF) is covered by a membrane, and this membrane is what actually separates the baby's brain from the environment. It is that important! So any application of substances that can damage this membrane will lead to exposure of the brain to the environment with serious consequences like in the story above.

4. The fact that in some babies, very hairy or chubby especially, that you can not see it pulsating or "breathing" in local naija parlance does not mean it is not there. Some mums have actually said their babies do not have anterior fontanelle! That is not true....every baby is born with one!
Clinically, AF is very important, it usually give a clue of what is going on in the baby's system therefore treatment should be towards cause of distortion of the AF not aiming to close or treat Oka ori(AF).

6. The size and shape of the AF varies from one baby to another normally. In some conditions, it can be too big. Also the anterior fontannelle can be elevated "bulging" in some conditions especially if the baby has infections in the brain. It can be depressed "sunken" in other conditions like in babies that are very dehydrated or malnourished.

PLEASE NOTE THAT IN THESE CONDITIONS, IT IS NOT THE ANTERIOR FONTANELLE(AF) CAUSING THE DISEASE SYMPTOMS (FOR EXAMPLE DIARRHOEA AND DEHYDRATION WITH SUNKEN AF). RATHER, THE AF IS JUST REFLECTING THE FACT THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG IN THE BODY SYSTEMS.

It is important to say this because this is one of the reasons some mums believe in "OKA". Such babies are sick and may either have prominent or sunken AF in addition to other symptoms. The "OKA doctors" will now say it is the "oka" causing the symptoms.

The danger of this belief is all treatments will be directed to the AF and the underlying disease causing the change in AF will be ignored. Also some of the native medications often used have dangerous side effects and consequences especially on the immature liver and kidneys of the babies causing further damage...."fry pan to fire" scenario!!!

7. The AF closes on its own by age of 18 - 24 months. This is because more than 90% of brain growth and development has occurred by the age of 2 years. You did not need to do anything about it. It happens on its own. Just to note that some diseases can cause delay in closure of the AF. See your paediatrician if you can still feel the AF in your baby after age 2 years.

8. You did not need to apply oil to the AF hourly or daily....highly unnecessary and the dripping oil will cause rashes on the baby's face. The AF is not "drying up" like many naija mums believe. You also do not need to put thread from cloth. You also do not need to mop AF with hot water or apply any substances local or herbal on it. JUST LEAVE THE AF ALONE!!!

9. Finally if your baby is sick with or without observed changes in the AF, please go to the Hospital immediately. Don't assume and don't accept the "OKA" diagnosis. Please see your doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment. A stitch in time saves nine!

If you find this piece useful, feel free to share and educate people around you. Together we can make our environment better.
