It is normal and as a result of hormonal imbalance.

She can take hormone supplements or birth control pills to upset the imbalance.

A doctor can help you choose properly and go for the pills that reduces testosterone.

A data breach is defined as when an unauthorized person or entity gained access to secured data…

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_breach

Here NIMC just told us that XpressVerify who gained access to their secured data is not one of their Authorized agents but still NIMC has concluded that there is no data breach….🤔

Though there is no ‘data breach’ as you have concluded but you told us that you are ‘investigating’. If you have already concluded that there is no data breach, what are you investigating? 💬🧐🙇‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️🫤😕

Politics / Re: Bagudu On Budget Padding: Insertions By National Assembly Legal – Minister by linearity: 11:24am On Mar 15
malcom1X:


Why would they not be aware? What is their major duty there. Budget is the main thing discussed there. Guy no dey give those guys excuses.

In fact the [b]budget is shared to every senator in hard copy [/b]to read.

Not all the time, the key Senate and House officers sometimes hide the details of the budget from rank and file members.

I agreed with your criticism but we should also understand their predicaments and continue to support them until they grow the backbone to start holding the Senate to account.

I personally believe they missed an opportunity here, they would have joined Ninge or insist for an investigation.

TriCee:
A seasoned politician is the minister for budget planning?

Ok. I hope Nigeria gets better, but the timeline is quite bleak.

Not every Senator is aware of the budget padding as it is usually done at the committee level before it is brought to the floor.

Also the allegations going around seem to indicate that, not all Senators got money in form of constituents project to entice them to vote for the budget, only key Principal officers got their palms lubricated.

Yet before voting they may have heard about this and they were wrong not to have raised durst over it and to lend their voices to the current saga at least for citizens to know which side they belong to.

thunder74:
DNA for a child Mohbad himself did not reject or deny while alive? These people are not serious. Baba wan use elimination method to remove the child so as to inherit his son's property.

Updated

When can the Court Order a DNA Test?
Where a person is a minor (not an adult) and his paternity is in issue, the court can order the conduct of DNA test in the overall interest of the child, to ascertain where he belongs. See TONY ANOZIA V. MRS. PATRICIA OKWUNWA NNANI & IGNATIUS "NNANI" (2015) 8 NWLR (PT. 1461) 241

Who Can Apply for a Paternity Test in Nigeria?
Notwithstanding that the right to ascertain paternity exists in Nigeria, it is important to understand that the process and conditions surrounding the application for a paternity test must adhere to established legal principles.

In Nigeria, the following individuals can apply for a paternity test:

1. A Father: A man who doubts his biological relationship with a child can apply for a paternity test.

2. A Mother: A mother may also apply for a paternity test to establish the biological father of her child.

3. A Guardian or Custodian: In the paramount interest of a child, the child's guardian may apply to the Court to ascertain the paternity of the child.

Mohbad's father is neither of the above. This case is DOA. He does not have the locus.

The father is a Guardian and would be injured if an illegitimate child becomes heir of his family estate or inherits family property.

The Court would grant the DNA to clear the current doubts. BTW why is the mother avoiding court service?

One would think that, given her prior statements on this issue, she would have been the one in the forefront to push that this DNA be done!

Infact, Trump can even seek justice on the basis of mistrial. You can see that this is a very punitive judgement. Evil people who do not know how else to stop him from winning the elections are deploying everything in their arsenal to destroy him because they know what will happen when he wins. As for appeal, yes, he can and will appeal. All those jargon about paying a hefty bond of 540 mil before he can appeal is nonsense. If doesn't happen anywhere in the world. The whole idea is to damage his image.

Romance / Re: Long Distance Relationship; Should I Be Worried? by linearity: 11:38am On Mar 08
BeautifulSolace:
I've been dating my boyfriend since 2021, and he's a good person whom I trust because he doesn't hide anything from me. Last year, he traveled to Lagos, creating a long-distance relationship. Despite not having evidence of cheating and maintaining strong communication, I often worry that all men can't stay without sex.

Should I be worried?"

Since you often worry that no man can stay without sex and you also know that even in a committed husband and wife scenario even while living under the same roof, the man or woman must engage in long distance travel a few times each year, why get into relationships with men, a demography that you have already concluded would cheat?

I would think you would look for another specie that would not cheat on you?

Now if you have made up your mind that you must associate with men despite your perceived negative disposition towards them when it come to infidelity, why lose sleep over what you have concluded is a ubiquitous defect among them?

You can’t eat you cake and then complain about it.

Good people always appreciate good things irrespective of who it happens to.

Approach him and tell him of your dilemma and he will even chastise you for even deliberating the obvious. He will be the one to encourage you to take the other job.

But don’t tamper with the relationship, there are things you would learn in the Island job that you can use to benefit him and his company.

My only problem is, you did not give him enough notice seeing how good he was to you, not even two weeks.
Romance / Re: Doctors In The House I Need Your Help!!!! by linearity: 2:24am On Mar 04
It is very unlikely you are responsible.

Ovulation aka the release of an egg to be fertilized happens 12-14 days before one start seeing her period if the released egg was not fertilized.

If her period was supposed to start on Feb 14th, it means the egg must have been released between Feb 1st and Feb 3rd.

If a released egg is not fertilized within 24 hrs it disintegrates and along with the prep site on the uterus leading to menstrual flow.

If you had sex with her on the 7th of Feb, she is safe at that period and it would not result into pregnancy.

However, if she have an irregular period or during that month both ovaries instead of one released an egg, or her calculations and timing she told you are off or she have a delayed ovulation that cycle due to medications, depression, etc, then there is the possibility that you may be responsible but remember that this possibility is low like 20%.

Remember that the fact that the chance of something happening being 20% does not mean that it could not happen at all, it simply means that in more cases it likely may not happened.

A possible scenario is that, she had sex with someone else around her ovulation and she doesn’t want that person to be the father and for some reasons you are her favorite to be called her baby father.

If I were you I would not take responsibility yet, if you have any long term plans with this individual, I will slow walk those plans until a DNA test proofs that I am the father.

Romance / Re: My Mother Keeps Rejecting All My Suitors Because A Prophet Said So - Naija Lady by linearity: 10:42am On Mar 01
I don’t know why you think that your Dad has no say or why are you not involving him?

Yes, it is important you get the consent of both parents, but if both parent are not in agreement, you have fulfilled your part if you go with your father’s inclination if they align with yours.

I say father because, it is truly the father that is recognized both traditionally and in Church wedding to give their daughters out in marriage, mothers play a more background role that can be substituted.

Your traditional wedding, bride price, etc would be done according to the tradition and custom of where your father comes from. I have seen traditional weddings where the mother side refused to show up despite them having a role to play….in one occasion that I witnessed, the people from the town marriage committee asked the father to nominate a lady there to play the role of the mother and he did that and the show continues…

If she dragged this and refuses to go along, your father can even nominate someone to represent your mother before the D-day, that person would collect her gift, play their role and take the gift to them at home the occasion, it is up to her what she does with them.

During your Church wedding, it is your father that would walk you down the aisle and not your mother. When the Priest or Pastor publicly announce in Church that…..who gave this lady out for marriage (as some Churches do), it is your father that would respond.

So in marriage from Africa stand point, it is the father or the person playing the role of the father that is most important if we truly come to it….hence I was wondering where your father is in this whole picture when he have an oversize role to play.

Dear Nairalanders,

My younger brother was diagnosed with HIV when he applied for a stidy visa to canda. Fortunately, he was granted the visa. However he is yet to get health insurance in Canada. I intend traveling there soon and they are asking that I come with his drugs.

Please advise. Can I travel with ARV drugs on his behalf? Are there risks associated?

Please help.

You are not allowed to carry a prescription drug on board a plane for someone else.

But, you are totally fine if the prescriptions are in your name and the name on the prescription or Doctor’s note matches the name on your traveling documents.

Most licensed Pharmacists or Doctors in Nigeria would understand your situation and put the prescription or letter following the drugs in your name.

At least it is better than Naira!

If two friends with N100,000.00 each in their Nigeria savings accounts at the start of 2020 just to save it against raining days.

One January 2,2020; one of them heard of USDT and promptly converts all their money into USDT and the other left theirs ‘as is’.

Who would be better off by now? I am confident that, if a fraction of that USDT is converted back to Naira, there will be more than N100,000 to match the original savings that his friend still have in the bank and more USDT left sitting idle but growing daily almost risk free against the Naira.
