Answers to your questions:
We've not communicated since the incidents,I do not know her state of mind in terms of reconciling.I guess I want to discover that as well if I finally implement your ideas.No kids yet,so no need for family support.

I had taken the decision,on my part,not to contact her all this while.Apparently,that feeling was mutual.The separation was a confusing scenario to me and I hoped to understand it better if given time and patience.I believe there were third party movers for it,based on lies against me on her part.

I also advised some who wanted to make peace initially to shelve the ideas while I get the bearing on the issues emotionally.I am there now.

I am thinking - this is really difficult,it's been a painful period for me - that contacting and communicating with her will be the test of whether those ingredients as you mentioned are now present.I haven't talked to any counsellors about the issues or my thoughts yet.

Every new day new foods and drinks are introduced into the Nigerian market. Having a NAFDAC number gives the food/drink quick acceptance in the market but does the NAFDAC number actually mean that the products are safe for human comsumption?

I stumbled upon a drink when I travelled to Enugu earlier this week. This was the first time I am seeing the drink though it may have been in the market. I ordered for it and as usual I checked the content. What I saw shocked me. The drink have sodium benzoate and vitamin C as ingredients. Why was I shocked, you may ask.

Let us briefly look at the two ingredients and the danger of having the two in foods and drinks.

Sodium benzoate is a preservative, a chemical compound derived from a reaction of benzoic acid and sodium hydroxide. It is generally believed to be a carcinogenic additive(cancer causing additive)

Though some food regulatory bodies across the world say it is safe because the amount used to preserve foods is very low, there is an "embargo" on its usage in food/drink. NEVER EVER COMBINE IT WITH VITAMIN C OR E. Why? Research have shown that sodium benzoate and vitamin C or even citric acid can react to form or rather forms BENZENE, a known CARCINOGEN.

This drink contains sodium benzoate and vitamin C. Definitely bezene will be formed. Probably the manufacturers added vitamin C to increase the nutritional quality of the drink but this leaves me to ask, does this drink give nourishment or poison to those who take it? I guess you can answer the question now. You may argue that the quantity of sodium benzoate, Vitamin C in the drink or Benzene that may be formed are too small to have health implications. However, cancer in most cases if not all cases is as a result of cumulative effects of carcinogen in the human system. This is a soft drink, people drink soft drinks like water. Over time, the effect will probably begin to manifest.

What then could have made them to use sodium benzoate and vitamin C in this drink? Already we have assumed the vitamin C may be to increase the nutritional qualities of the drink. Well, for sodium benzoate, it is among the cheapest if not the cheapest mold inhibitor in the market. As a preservative, it helps to extend the shelf life of foods and drinks. But in this case, with vitamin C, it shortens human life.

Sorry for this long epistle and sorry I didn't include references but I believe one, two or more persons will learn from this. Check google for more information on this. Be cautious of what you put in your mouth. Next time you get a drink, don't just gulp, check the ingredients. Not just drinks but also packaged and processed foods.

I was discussing with a junior colleague yesterday and he told me he invested in someone's cucumber business (100k) and was getting a return of 30k and some fraction every 3 months. But now there is a snag, the dude has refused to pay him this turns money. Presently, he wants to do it by himself. He said he can make a ROI of 80% in 3 months.
