A professor of Medical Microbiology (Infections and Immunity) at the Federal University of Technology, Akure (FUTA), Tinuola Adebolu has warned that most antibiotics can have undesirable side effects on consumers. Adebolu said this while delivering the university’s 88th inaugural lecture titled: “Mechanisms of Adaptive Immunity and the Endless Battle against Diarrhoeagenic Bacteria.” She posited that indigenous foods and herbs, which are readily available, could be used in treating infection. She listed an array of foods like “Ogi” (local pap), cheese whey, honey, garlic and beni seed as having antibacterial, antidiarrhoeatic, immunomodulatory and immunostimulatory effects. She disclosed that they could be exploited in treating individual’s suffering from bacterial diarrhea, especially in rural communities where people might not have quick access to orthodox therapy. Adebolu, who advocated that indigenous foods and herbs should serve as alternatives, said that raw “Ogi” used in making pap and other components are highly potent in curing diarrhea. This, according to her, might go a long way to reduce the morbidity and mortality that accompany such illnesses, especially in children. She warned against over-dependence on vaccines produced abroad since there are divergent strains and serotypes of diarrhoeagenic bacterial that are implicated in different regions of the world. https://t.guardian.ng/features/health/indigenous-foods-herbs-can-serve-as-antibiotics-says-prof-adebolu/ |
As McVitie’s Digestive biscuits marks its 125th years in the Nigerian market, A&P Foods Limited, the sole distributor of the biscuit in collaboration with Pladis Organisations, the parent company, has come up with a new promotional campaign to further promote the brand in the country and reward its numerous customers. Announcing the promo in Lagos, the Managing Director of Pladis Nigeria, Kwame Wiafe, disclosed that the 125th anniversary promo, which commenced on July 1, 2017 would last for three months, aside seeing customers win prizes, including N1 million each for three consumers, N500,000 each for six consumers, N200, 000 each for 15 consumers and instant airtime for 45,000 consumers. According Wiafe, “McVitie’s Digestive brand has enjoyed a lot of consumer love and support for over 12 decades across the globe, including Nigeria. We therefore decided to commemorate this milestone by rewarding our consumers.” The MD also revealed that the company depends on locally sourced raw materials for its production. “I can guarantee you that the quality we produce here is the same as the quality you get anywhere across the global. The only difference is the raw material that we use and that is why the Nigerian brand has a slight deviation in taste. "We ensure that all the raw materials used –– flour, sugar and fats –– are sourced locally. But recently, we have been working with our raw materials sourcing partners to ensure we get quality materials to enable us mitigate differences in the taste of our products in Nigeria and the UK,” he said. Explaining the selection process, Marketing Director, Pladis Nigeria, Toyin Nnodi, said: “To make the promotion transparent and fair, all prizes won will be mutually exclusive to consumers. This means that once a particular phone number has been drawn for any of the prizes, it would be excluded from subsequent draws. This is to give others equal chance to win prizes, irrespective of when they entered into the promo and to avoid unchecked multiple winnings. https://t.guardian.ng/business-services/mcvities-digestive-celebrates-125th-anniversary-rewards-customers/ |

Apos2kay:Luckily, Lagos is close by, Ogun state is also a stone throw away. These are the states where there's high demand for manpower because of the industries domiciled within their territory. Relocate, for now and come back when you've made it big ![]() |
