So next time your hot-tempered boyfriend won’t shut up and won’t even listen to you; can try doing following things-

2. Be extremely patient:

I understand your need to defend yourself but realize that he is angry and it is a no-win situation. It is better to wait for him to cool down and then put your point in fro........

Benin has buried Dah Dedjalagni Agoli-Agbo, monarch of the former militaristic kingdom of Dahomey, after he “returned to the realm of his ancestors,” a court official said on Tuesday. The monarch, whose age was a matter of dispute but was said by his younger brother to have been 84, was interred overnight on Monday only hours after his demise, in line with royal tradition, Dah Avoussibesse Tozonnou Adimagbe said. “Sadness has invaded the royal palace of Gbindo,” the official said using a synonym as it is taboo to mention the word “death” after the king’s demise. A police officer by training who had 41 wives, Agoli-Agbo was the latest in a long line of monarchs to the throne of Dahomey. He acceded in 2010.

People think of me as a good girl but I had a bad streak. ‘I was doing drugs, I was having sex with the wrong men, I was eating all the wrong food, I wasn’t working out and I wasn’t taking care of myself spiritually.

According to Super Eagles captain, John Mikel Obi, when he asked the Turkish referee Cuneyt Cakin why he did not award the penalty for the handball of Argentine defender, Marcus Rojo, the referee replied saying he didn’t know. 7327945_idontknowwhyididntawardpenaltytonigeriaturkishrefereelailasnews2_jpeg833ebcfe766ce14d401f102213502d90 Mikel said the referee admitted that the ball touched the hand of Marcos Rojo in the 82nd minute of Tuesday’s game but he put up a defense in not awarding the crucial spot-kick. The penalty, if awarded and scored at a time the match was 1-1, could have wrapped up a second round ticket for the Eagles. Speaking at the post-match briefing in St Petersburg, Mikel said: “I asked the referee if he thought the ball struck Rojo’s hand and he said ‘yes;. The referee told me that the ball came off Rojo’s head before it hit his hand.” Mikel added: ”I then asked Cakur why he didn’t award the penalty to Nigeria, he said: ‘I don’t know.’ That was sad because we checked the match video in the dressing room and it was a clear.......

As they continue their push for permanency in civil service, leadership of the 2016 N-Power beneficiaries have written a well articulated letter to President Mohammadu Buhari. Prisident%2BBuhari%2Band%2BVice%2BPresident%2BOsinbajo%2Bat%2Ban%2Bevent In the letter obtained by CNR Nigeria, the volunteers outlined the reasons why the Federal Government and the Presidency should not send N-Power volunteers back to the streets when they complete the two year duration in the scheme. Below is the full text of the letter addressed to President Mohammadu Buhari and copied to other relevant stakeholders and government ministries. YOUR EXCELLENCY, PRESIDENT MUHAMMADU BUHARI, COMMANDER IN CHIEF OF THE ARMED FORCES, FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF NIGERIA, ABUJA, NIGERIA. Dear Sir, PLEA FOR PERMANENT STATUS FOR N-POWER BENEFICIARIES We, the representatives of all N-power volunteers from the thirty six states of the federation including Abuja, humbly write to your venerated office for our absorption into the permanent civil service. Permit us at this juncture to acknowledge the efforts of your government in creating an environment of equal opportunities and equitable atmosphere for all, without any bias of whatsoever form. Most importantly sir, we wish to register our utmost and sincere appreciations to your administration for the new breeze of hopes and aspirations injected into a long suffering and neglected youths, viable segment of the masses, through the Social Investment Programmes (SIP). Sir, it is countless to still say your initiative has brought back the lost glory through the Social Investment Programmes which thousands of Nigerians from all brackets of ages are currently benefiting from and which gives every Nigerian a true sense of belonging without any traceable iota of religious, tribal and political undertone. This is undeniably a landmark in the history of this nation that has proven to be truly designed for the poor and neglected masses, without any form of manipulations. As a sub-unit of the Social Investment Programmes, the N-Power Initiative Scheme has come as a succor to millions of young Nigerians, graduates and non graduates, skilled and unskilled, to putting smiles on our faces and giving us hopes of a better Nigeria of equal opportunities and promising days ahead. In view of the aforementioned, we hereby use this avenue to register our unreserved appreciations. We, the entire elite Nigerian youths, under the aegis of The Nationwide N-Power Volunteers from the thirty six states of the federation and FCT, shall ever remain grateful to the ingenious mind behind the N-Power Initiative Scheme and other sister programmes under the umbrella of the Social Investment Programmes (SIP).

The was a mild drama earlier today at the All Progressives Congress (APC) national convention in Abuja. According to information gathered, trouble started after the group loyal to Imo state governor Rochas Okorocha, stormed the pavilion meant for Imo delegates. They asked those loyal to Eze Madumere, the deputy governor, to vacate the seats. The order was resisted, leading to fisticuffs as the private security guard of the governor called “Okorocha Good Governance ” descended on members of the group. Hillary Eke, chairman of the anti-Okorocha faction, was forcefully thrown out of his seat alongside other members of the executives. After attacking members of the deputy governor’s faction, they moved straight to where Hillary Eke, chairman of the anti-Okorocha faction was and ejected him after initial resistance. The leadership of the party acknowledged Eke as chairman of Imo chairman, an action that pitched Okorocha against John Oyegun, the immediate past national chairman of the party. The aggrieved APC members engaged in battle as President Muhammadu Buhari was reading his speech at the convention.

How old were you when you got your flow? Getting your first period definitely came with a little bit of street cred back in the day: You could finally complain about PMS and cramps! But now tons of research shows that getting your period before age 12 might actually be linked with health issues down the road – and all of a sudden your days of trading tampons in middle school probably seem a little less cute. Obviously, though, it’s too late to turn back the clock on your hormones, says Dr Lauren Streicher, associate professor of obstetrics and gynaecology at Northwestern University. That’s why, if your period did come early (show of hands?), it’s even more important to know and stay on top of any conditions linked with your early-to-arrive womanhood. Here are seven health issues linked with early periods:

1. B.reast cancer Your period is accompanied by extreme hormonal changes, especially in oestrogen, which is known to influence virtually every tissue in the body, says Dr Steicher. And that includes your B00bs: Women who had their first bleed before age 12 were 50% more likely to develop B.reast cancer compared to those who got their period at age 16, according to a report from the B.reast Cancer Fund. The study explains that early puberty is associated with increased exposure to the B.reast-cancer-promoting hormone oestrogen. 2. Early menopause Research published in the journal Human Reproduction in 2017 found that women who had their first period at age 11 or younger had an 80% higher risk of entering menopause before age 40 (premature menopause) and a 30% higher risk of menopause between the ages of 40 and 44 (early menopause), compared with women who got their first period between 12 and 13. This risk is greatest in women who also have never had children, says Suzanne Steinbaum, director of the Heart and Vascular Institute at Lenox Hill Hospital in NYC. 3. Heart disease Seriously, what doesn’t increase
