A lot of people here have no idea what an allergy is.

Op should have included a description of what it is.

Allergies, also known as allergic diseases, are a number of conditions caused by hypersensitivity of the immune system to something in the environment that usually causes little problem in most people. These diseases include hay fever, food allergies , atopic dermatitis,
allergic asthma, and anaphylaxis.

Food allergy is an abnormal response to a food triggered by your body's immune system.

Maybe if the games are set to their lowest graphics settings and your laptop is at It's highest performance settings.

*229*pin*amount of data*number#

Default pin is 0000

You can send a maximum of 250mb a day and a maximum of 50mb at a go, so you'll have to send 50mb 5 times to get to the daily maximum of 250mb.

So you can't send 100mb once you'll have to send 50mb twice, and you can't send more than 250mb a day, to send more you'll have to wait till the next day.

Yes definitely, so long as it's either Nvidia or AMD GPU.

Two former Burkinabe students are set to change the way in which Africans respond to the upsetting mosquitoes in the region, by using a soap.

The answer to Africa’s malaria epidemic and consequently other mosquito related crisis could be put to an end by a bar of soap, at least that is what two young African creatives think.

With a goal of fighting malaria, two former students Moctar Dembélé of Burkina Faso and Gérard Niyondiko of Burundi invented a life-saving solution that could save Africa from the mosquito menace.

Their invention, Faso Soap, is a malaria-fighting soap which they created using locally sourced products including lemongrass, shea butter, and other insect-repelling herbs that remain a secret. According to the entrepreneurs, they chose soap because of its effectiveness and usability. The two did not want to introduce a new behavior to the users hence a soap fit perfectly into their plan.

The team has been working on the project since 2013 when they first came into the limelight after winning $25,000 Grand Prize in the Global Social Venture Competition (GSVC). GSVC which was launched by Berkeley MBA students is a global competition , designed to help budding entrepreneurs to transform their ideas into businesses that will have a positive social impact. The project emerged on top after beating 650 other competitors from nearly 40 countries to become the first Africans as well as the first non-Americans team to win the award.

After winning, Niyondiko explained to CNN about the product and the reasons they decided on working with a soap: “In our country the majority of the population lives below the poverty line,” Niyondiko said, “so we thought of a repellent and larvicidal mosquito soap which will be accessible and affordable to the majority of the population, seeing that soap is a commodity product and especially not going to add other additional costs to the population.”

In a bid to raise enough capital to support product testing and development, through a partnership with a Stanford graduate and a social entrepreneur, they launched ' 100,000 Lives ' a crowdfunding campaign aimed at raising $113,000. Already, the target has been partially met.

The developers hope to have the soap ready for the market by 2018, when all the clinical testing will have been done, to prove its safety and effectiveness before it can be distributed to the public. The funds will also be used for product development.

“Our goal is that our soap is widely distributed to reach the largest possible number in sub-Saharan Africa and other parts of the world affected by malaria.”

How it works

The team says that after bathing, the soap leaves on the skin a scent that repels mosquitoes. Moreover, the waste water products (after using the soap) contain substances that prevent the development of mosquito larvae.
With water sanitation problems in Africa, this could be the answer to the gaping water ditches and open drainage systems that act as breeding ground for the insects.

Although Africa is making great progress in fighting Malaria, a disease that is widespread in the continent, a new development that could make the fight easier and faster is always welcome.

In April, the World Health Organization announced that at least six countries: Algeria, Botswana, Cape Verde, Comoros, South Africa, and Swaziland could be free of Malaria by 2020.

Malaria still remains a major threat in Africa with 9 out of ten deaths from Malaria in 2015 being from Sub-Saharan Africa. In May 2015, the World Health Assembly endorsed a new Global Technical Strategy for Malaria. The strategy includes ambitious goals for malaria control and elimination in the next 15-year period.

The team hopes that the soap “will fulfill the desire of the population to be clean, as well as protect them from malaria, without any additional cost to them.”

Let’s wait in hope that the soap turns out to be the solution to mosquito menace which has now brought about the Zika virus , known for causing microcephaly and other neurological disorders.

"taking laws into their own hands" there's no law in the Nigerian Constitution against blasphemy, they just murdered the innocent woman to satiate their bloodlust.

I like that privacy screen tutorial, but I can't mutilate my computer in that way.

Don't think it's because of the load, cos I've tried it with just two 60watts bulbs, one fan, a plasma TV and home theater while other bulbs and appliances were switched off. Although it's a three bedroom apartment.

For that of low quality petrol, I can't really tell. Although I buy from both black market and from petrol stations.

If the electricity output is one of the reasons, then I think it might be the cause. Cos the sound of my gen is very high.

Please if you know of a way in which I could reduce the electricity output by myself, pls do well to tell me. Thanks

You can do it yourself but I don't know how to describe it to you, ok, if you check by the side of the gen underneath the fuel tank you should see a screw with a spring wrapped around it, turning that screw to the right or left is what you can do to regulate output.

A few things that could be the cause are:
The gen may be carrying a lot of load.
You may be buying low quality petrol
The electricity output of the gen may be too high

Just check these 1st, you might spot something.
Personally I suspect the output since you said the sound of the gen is high.

Uninstalling the game isn't the problem with your phone.

What's the problems you are bothered with maybe we can help you fix them.

Now isn't that just stupîd, Jamb exams are definitely more credible than post utme, the only purpose of post utme is for money making.

A Russian man who tried to rob a hair salon ended up as the victim when the female shop owner overpowered him, tied him up nak*d and then used him as a s*x slave for three days.

Viktor Jasinski, 32, admitted to police that he had gone to the salon in Meshchovsk, Russia, with the intention of robbing it.


Teaching a lesson: Olga Zajac, 28, allegedly held 32-year-old would-be robber Viktor Jasinski captive for three days in a back room of her hair salon, feeding him Viagra and having s*x ‘a couple of times.

But the tables were turned dramatically when he found himself overcome by owner Olga Zajac, 28, who happened to be a black belt in karate.

She allegedly floored the would-be robber with a single kick.

Then, in a scene reminiscent of Quentin Tarantino’s Pulp Fiction, police say Zajac dragged the semi-conscious Jasinski to a back room of the salon and tied him up with a hair dryer cable.

She allegedly stripped him naked and, for the next three days, used him as a sex slave to ‘teach him a lesson’ – force feeding him Viagra to keep the lesson going.



Life imitating art: The plight of Viktor Jasinski has an odd parallel with the infamous basement scene in Pulp Fiction, starring Ving Rhames

The would-be robber was eventually released, with Zajak saying he had learned his lesson.

Jasinski went straight to the police and told them of his back-room ordeal, saying that he had been held hostage, handcuffed naked to a radiator, and fed nothing but Viagra.

Both have now been arrested.

When police arrived to question Zahjac, she said: ‘What a bastard. Yes, we had sex a couple of times. But I bought him new jeans, gave him food and even gave him 1,000 roubles when he left.”

Yes to jungle justice. Kill them all. I hate thieves.

So punish theft with murder. That makes you much much worse than the thief. shame on you all.

wow! congrats man. It's good you didn't give up because of Nairalanders negativity, there's too many kids on this forum.

Only a foolish leadership would believe that show of force solves every problem even when there's overwhelming evidence that it does the exact opposite.

The original Niger Delta militants were not calmed down by violence, Book haram is still an issue, Ipob keeps growing everyday, and now we have Fulani herdsmen to contend with.

How many battles can the Nigerian army fight at the same time?


It's time for the Nigerian government to pick it's battles wisely and lead smartly or this country is going to fail spectacularly.
