HealthSome Amazing Fact Abt Banana. by jimino(op): 1:20pm On Jun 16, 2013
- The Following Are Very
Interesting FACTS abt banana. After reading
this, you'll never look at a
banana
in the same way again.
Bananas
contain three natural
sugars - sucrose, fructose and glucose combined with fiber. A banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost
of energy. Research has proven that just
two bananas provide enough energy for a strenuous 90-
minute workout. No wonder the banana
is the number one fruit with the
world's leading athletes. But energy isn't the only way a banana can help us keep fit. It can also help overcome or
prevent a substantial number of illnesses and conditions, making it a must to add to our daily
diet.
DEPRESSION: According to a recent survey undertaken by MIND amongst
people suffering from depression, many felt much better after
eating a banana. This is because bananas contain try ptophan, a type of protein that the body converts into serotonin, known
to make you relax, improve your
mood and generally make you feel happier.
PMS: Forget the pills - eat a banana. The vitamin B6 it contains
regulates blood glucose levels,
which can affect your mood.
ANEMIA:
High in iron, bananas can stimulate the production of hemoglobin in the blood and so
helps in cases of anemia.
BLOOD PRESSURE:
This unique tropical fruit is extremely high in potassium yet
low in salt, making it perfect to beat blood pressure So much so,
the US Food and Drug
Administration has just allowed the banana industry to make official claims for the fruit's ability to reduce the risk of blood pressure and stroke.
BRAIN POWER:
200 students at a Twickenham
(Middlesex) school ( England )
were helped through their exams this year by eating bananas at
breakfast, break, and lunch in a bid to boost their brain power.
Research has shown that the potassium-packed fruit can assist
learning by making pupils more alert. CONSTIPATION:
High in fiber, including bananas in
the diet can help restore normal
bowel action, helping to overcome the problem without
resorting to laxatives.
HANGOVERS:
One of the quickest ways of curing a hangover is to make a
banana milkshake, sweetened with honey. The banana calms the stomach and, with the help
of the honey, builds up depleted blood sugar levels, while the milk soothes and re-hydrates your system. HEARTBURN: Bananas have a natural antacid
effect in the body, so if you suffer from heartburn, try eating a
banana for soothing relief.
MORNING SICKNESS: Snacking on bananas between meals helps to keep blood sugar
levels up and avoid morning sickness. MOSQUITO BITES:
Before reaching for the insect bite cream, try rubbing the affected area with the inside of a banana
skin. Many people find it amazingly successful at reducing
swelling and irritation.
NERVES:
Bananas are high in B vitamins that help calm the nervous
system.. Overweight and at work? Studies
at the Institute of Psychology in
Austria found pressure at work
leads to gorging on comfort food
like chocolate and chips. Looking
at 5,000 hospital patients, researchers found the most
obese were more likely to be in high- pressure jobs. The report concluded that, to avoid panic-induced food cravings, we need
to control our blood sugar levels by snacking on high
carbohydrate foods every two hours to keep levels steady.
ULCERS:
The banana is used as the dietary food against intestinal disorders because of its soft texture and smoothness. It is the only raw fruit that can be eaten without
distress in over-chroniclercases.
It also neutralizes over-acidity and reduces irritation by coating the lining of the stomach. TEMPERATURE CONTROL:
Many other cultures see bananas
as a 'cooling' fruit that can lower both the physical and emotional temperature of expectant mothers. In Thailand, for example, pregnant women eat
bananas to ensure their baby is born with a cool temperature.
So, a banana really is a natural remedy for many ills. When you
compare it to an apple, it has
FOUR TIMES the protein, TWICE
the carbohydrate, THREE TIMES
the phosphorus, five times the vitamin A and iron, and twice the other vitamins and minerals. It is
also rich in potassium and is one of the best value foods around
So maybe its time to change that well-known phrase so that we say, 'A BANANA a day keeps the
doctor away!' PS: Bananas must
be the reason
monkeys are so happy all the time!

PoliticsPolitician Quotes Bible To Defend Nigerian Constitution. by jimino(op): 2:18pm On Jun 11, 2013
“Isaiah 33 verse number 22” of the Holy Bible.
Asked what his opinion wasconcerning the proposed bill to amend the Nigerian Constitution to a 6-year-single-term arrangement was; Mr Fashakin quoted the bible passage and explained that the fundamentals on legislature,judiciary and executive are firmly entrenched in it.
The Senate committee on the amendment of the constitution, headed by the Deputy Senate President, IkeEkweremadu, has recommended a six year single term for the president and governors. The proposal however, indicated that serving President and Governors will not benefit from the new proposal.
During an exclusive interview on the programme, he explained that “the business of government is basically about the people;” adding that the proposed bill is an attempt to depreciate the sovereignty of the people.
He related this to the chapter 2 section 14 of the Nigerian Constitution stating that the “Nigerian state shall be built upon the principles of democracy andsocial justice.”
Mr Fashakin, who was against the bill said it is a ‘bad idea’ and is not in the best interest of the people of Nigeria.

Northern Govs responsible for crisis -- Yuguda
Meanwhile, the governor of Bauchi State, Alhaji Isa Yuguda, yesterday, said the Northern Governors Forum should be blamed for the crisis in the Nigerian Governors Forum.
Addressing newsmen after meeting with President Goodluck Jonathan in Abuja, Governor Yuguda said he did not understand why the chairman of the Northern Governors Forum, Babangida Aliyu who presided over the meeting where Jonah Jang was picked as a consensus candidate did not protect that decision.
He said: "If 19 governors presented a candidate in a 35-member association, the game is over and it has been consensus candidates all the way.You are all young men and my heart bleeds for all of you because there must be integrity in governance.
"We your governors should be men of high integrity, we should be role models and we should not play evil politics because most people associate politics with evil. If you don't know how to tell lies, if you don't know how to betray, if you don't know how to have double face, you are not a good politician. But as for me I am not cut out for that.
"My words should be my bond. If I had sat down with 19 of my colleagues and we agreed on something, I should not see the chairman of that forum not coming to protect the integrity of the Northern Governors Forum and by extension the Nigerian Governors Forum.
"That is why I say all the crisis and all the unfortunate comments made about the governors today, the fault should be traced to the Northern Governors Forum because we are the culprits andthat is why I say on his honour, let the chairman of the NorthernGovernors Forum come out and tell Nigerians that either we in the forum did not come out with Jang as our consensus candidate or we, 19 governors, picked Jang as our consensus candidate.
"If that has been done, all these things will not happen and that is why I say if I will sit with my colleagues and we take a decision and you go and do a different thing, I am not part of that.
"As for me as a person, I don't want to attend their meeting but my deputy can attend on behalf of the people and government of Bauchi State. Butas a person, I will not. That has always been my position".
He said that if the governors areunable to set a code of conduct and ethics in office of a governor, "very soon, nobody will want to be a governor. Go and think and sleep over this and you will confirm that I am right. There is honour in leadership and God sanctions leadership. If God has sanctioned leadership in our books of faith, I cannot see evil associated with leadership. So anybody that associates politics with evil and wants to play the evil way is not part of us" he said.
He however reiterated that despite the problems confronting the PDP, there is no party that can uproot it from power. "I cannot see any rocket science that can dislodge PDP" he said.

PoliticsNGF Crisis - Aliyu, Yuguda Disagree, Trade Blames by jimino(op): 11:01pm On Jun 07, 2013
Chairman of the Northern StatesGovernors' Forum, NSGF, and Governor of Niger State, Dr Babangida Aliyu insisted, Thursday, that contrary to the claim of some of his colleagues, the Nigeria Governors Forum, NGF, actually had an election which produced a winner even as Governor Isa Yuguda of Bauchi State blamed the northern governors for the crisis in the NGF.
Governor Aliyu spoke at the endof the Northern States Governors' Forum meeting in Kaduna while Governor Yuguda addressed newsmen after meeting President Goodluck Jonathan.
Governor Aliyu said, "If I am to tell you what led to the problem in the NGF, we will stay here till tomorrow, so I have no intention of doing that. I will only tell you that in any election there may be one person or the other who will be aggrieved.
"It is sad that we seem to be developing this type of culture even in our normal elections because as you prepare to contest for elections, you shouldalso prepare to contest in the court. I am speaking to you as the Chairman NSGF, and if you want my view I will tell you we had an election.
"All I know is that we had an election. And you can interpret what I mean by that. Yes, we have a problem, but we will solve it".
Reacting to the report that Governor Yuguda said he was opting out of the NSGF, the chairman of the NSGF said, "If Yuguda said he was no longer amember of this forum, he did not write to this meeting about that.
"This is a voluntary organisationand we have resolved as a group to follow this informally. That is why you did not hear any one of us reply him the wayyou heard him.
Aliyu's statement read: "A delegation of the Forum will visit Nasarawa State with a viewto condoling the government and people of Nasarawa State over the recent civil unrest that led to the colossal loss of lives and property. The Forum also condemned the action and condole the security operatives and families that lost their beloved ones
"The Forum further expressed concern over the economic problems facing the nation and the North in particular and resolved to have an economic plan emanating from the states, zones and the region that will form the basis for economic development of the North"
The Governors that attended the meeting aside Aliyu were: Mukhtar Ramallan Yero of Kaduna State, Sule Lamido of Jigawa State, Tanko Almakura ofNasarawa State and Hassan Dankwabo of Gombe State.
Apart from Plateau State and Benue State governors who sent their Secretaries to the State Governments, most of the governors were represented by their deputies.
However, Katsina, Yobe and Bauchi state governors did not send representatives and did not send any apology to the meeting.

PoliticsAtiku Rejects Automatic Tickets For President, Governors by jimino(op): 10:46pm On Jun 01, 2013
FORMER Vice President Atiku Abubakar has again rejected plans by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to tamper with the party’s constitution, with a view to granting automatic tickets to elected officers, particularly the president and governors.

In a statement, signed by the Atiku Media Office, Saturday, the former Vice President said he would challenge any procedure, either “consensus arrangement” or “adoption” that is contrary to transparent elections to produce candidates for all elective offices, including the presidency.

Atiku was responding to another kite being flown by Chief Tony Anenih, chairman of the PDP Board of Trustees, who has advocated that the party should give an automatic ticket to President Jonathan in 2015.

The former Vice President recalled that he was repeatedly in courts to challenge this undemocratic arrangement and that the courts ruled that the policy is alien to the PDP and Nigerian constitutions.

Atiku said the principle on which he opposed this unjust policy, which he describes as a “travesty of democracy”, has not changed since then.

“My position remains that as far as PDP constitution is concerned, any attempt to change the party’s rule to favour the president as a sole candidate, in the event of his willingness to re-contest, is unconstitutional. The contest should be open to all that desire to pursue an ambition on the platform of the PDP,” Atiku said.

While acknowledging that President Jonathan is entitled to seek the party’s ticket in 2015, the former Vice President, however, insisted that Jonathan should submit himself to a transparent and fair process, just like any other party member.

He argued that by foreclosing free and fair process of selecting its presidential candidate, the PDP might be sending the wrong message to Nigerians about its commitment to conduct free and fair elections for the entire country.

BusinessBank Customers To Pay N100 ATM Maintenance Fee In Nigeria by jimino(op): 12:22pm On May 08, 2013
The Central Bank of Nigeria has
directed bank customers to pay
N100 annually for the
maintenance of their automated
transaction machine, ATM.
CBN, under Mallam Lamido
Sanusi, in a recent directive to all
banks operating in Nigeria stated
that the annual fee replaces the
monthly card maintenance fee,
which banks were charging their
customers in the past.
reporter
learnt from reliable sources that
the directive is with immediate
effect.
www.allvoices.com
It could be re-called that over the
years, Nigerian bank customers
have grumbled over the erratic
and reckless manners some
banks have been deducting
money from their accounts in the
name of maintenance fee and
other charges.
With the CBN directive, it is
expected that the burdens of
bank customers may have been
made lighter, a bank official with
Ecobank Group told our reporter
yesterday.

PoliticsStop Harassing Amaechi, APC Governors Tell Jonathan. by jimino(op): 12:13pm On May 08, 2013
Nine of the progressive state
governors in the All Progressive
Congress (APC) merger plan,
Tuesday rose from a meeting in
Owerri, the Imo State capital,
condemning the current
harassment of Rivers State
Governor, Chibuike Amaechi,
and describing it as an affront
to the nation’s Constitution and
Federalism.
The Governors who were also in
Owerri in solidarity with the State
Governor, Rochas Okorocha on
the second Anniversary of his
administration, christened
Freedom Day, include those of
Lagos, Edo, Osun, Ekiti, Ogun,
Oyo, Borno and Nassarawa. The
Governors of Zamfara and Yobe
sent apologies for their
unavoidable absence.
In a communiqué issued after
their meeting at the Government
House Owerri, the Governors,
who expressed grave concern
over the developments in the
nation’s polity generally, said
what was playing itself out in
Rivers State was “an open assault
on the Nation, Federalism and
Sovereignty of the people”.
Calling on the Presidency “to stop
the unwarranted assault on the
Sovereignty of Nigerians, the
Governors declared, “A
government freely formed by the
democratic choice of Nigerians
cannot be arbitrarily harassed
and intimidated out of office
through brazen use of power
and outright abuse of same”.
“We are concerned about
developments in the polity. What
is playing itself out in Rivers is an
affront on the Constitution and
Nigerian Federalism/Federation.
We, therefore, strongly condemn
the open assault on our Nation,
Federalism and Sovereignty of
our people. We call on the
Presidency to stop the
unwarranted assault on the
sovereignty of Nigerians”, the
Governors said.
The Governors equally expressed
delight at the significant
progress that has been made
towards the conclusion of the
merger of the Action Congress of
Nigeria (ACN), Congress for
Progressive Change (CPC) and All
Nigeria Peoples Party (ANPP)
noting, particularly, the recent
successful hosting of ACN special
convention in Lagos, the
affirmation of the Governor
Rochas Okorocha led All
Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA)
in Owerri and the impending
conventions of CPC and ANPP
coming up this weekend.
Assuring Nigerians that the
merger process that would give
them a new alternative platform
that would form government at
the federal level in 2015 “is
irreversible and on course”, the
Governors, however, called on
party members and Nigerians in
general to guard their loins “as
the desperation of the PDP to
scuttle the process is reaching
fever pitch”.
Expressing solidarity with the
government and people of Imo
State on the second anniversary
of the Freedom Day, the
governors noted with
satisfaction the giant
development strides that have
been achieved by the Rescue
Mission of the Okorocha
Administration in Imo State in
the last two years.
The Governors condoled with the
government and people of Ekiti
State on the death of the former
Deputy Governor of the State,
Funmi Olayinka, praying that the
Almighty God would give her
family and the people of Ekiti
State “the fortitude to bear the
great loss”.
