Today, a middle-aged, young lady with the name B.K who was also a 300L student in the state owned tertiary institution lost her life to a head-on collision of the motorcycle she boarded with a car driven by a young Driver. By the time she was brought into our Accident and Emergency Department, it was already too late and she was declared dead on arrival (DOA) and Motorcycle Rider is currently receiving Treatment. Eyewitnesses said that the accident was caused by the car driver who while on speed tried to dodged a pothole on his lane and the Vehicle crossed to the other lane where the impact between the car and the motorcycle occurred. The Driver has been detained by the police for the due course of law to take place. my personal opinion is that 1. when driving on the road especially within a community observe and maintain the recommended speed limit. You are not the only one using the road. 2. Am also of the opinion that investigations should be made to catch all these driving schools that collect bribe and offer driving school certificate most of the young drivers on our roads today and those found wanting should be made to face the full wrath of the Law. 3. Lack of well trained Paramedical and Emergency Response personnel is a huge contributory factor to the high percentage of Deaths due to RTA. This needs Fixing. Most importantly always say a word of Prayer before stepping out of the house. Some Causes of RTA amongst others are; 1. Reckless Driving 2. Driving under the influence of alcohol and/or Hard Drugs ( e fit happen one day). 3. Vehicle Negligence. May the deceased RIP and I pray God give the family the fortitude to bear the Lose. |

Cigarette smoking is the number one risk factor for lung cancer. In the US cigarette smoking has been linked to 80—90% of lung cancer deaths. Smokers are 15 - 30 times more likely than nonsmokers to develop or die from lung Cancer. Toxic metals such as lead, copper, arsenic, aluminium etc. Are significantly present in cigarette smoke. There is no safe level of exposure to cigarette smoking. With each puff of a cigarette, over 5000 chemicals are released with at least 70 of them know to cause cancer. How does Cigarette Smoking Cause cancer. The cancer causing chemicals in cigarette are called Carcinogens, the override the cell's innate protection from DNA damage. This carcinogens builds up over time and causes Cancer. Research has shown that there are at least 16 cancers caused by smoking ; Cancer of Liver, Ovary, Kidneys, Lungs, Colon, Cervix, bladder, Oropharynx etc. Each Cigarette that a person smokes has the tendency of reducing the lifespan by an average of 11 minutes. Thus Smoking is the biggest preventable cause of Cancer. Passive smoking i.e a second party inhalation of smoke is the third leading cause of lung cancer, causing an estimated 3000 lung cancer deaths every year. Regardless of how long a person has smoked, can reduce the chances of dying from lung cancer by half in 10 years. #Copied( NiMSA) I hope we learn from this post thanks. |

1. Genetically speaking, all men have the cheating gene its either recessive or dominant. 2.If your man has side chicks while dating you, he will have mistresses while married to you. 3. Beware and cautious of men who have a lot of female friends, you may have been the lucky lady who bagged the wedding ring and his last name but my dear, you're sharing the good sex and money with other ladies. 4. Beware of those with tongues of honey they are the most dangerous, the players and casanovas. They can manipulate their ways into your thought. 5. Don't go around tell your friends how great your man is in bed because, there must be a Judas somewhere along the line who will want a bit. In some situations, the man must fall either willingly or with force. That's when you will hear the African phrase BODY NO BE WOOD. |
1. You Failed Class Work And Correction: If you failed class work and still fail corrections, just know that your village people don’t want you to go to school at all. Uncle Sandra, you need to discover your ministry 2. When You Submit Your Question Paper And Go Home With Your Answer Sheet: If you are in this situation, hmmm… I don’t really have a word for you. Just know that your case is in shiloh . 3. You Scored Less Than 50 In Jamb: Jamb is over 400. If you have ever scored less than 50 in Jamb, it means your full community are following you. Please, just kill a goat to appease them . 4. You Had F Parallel In Waec: In my recent article on waec series, I explained that it is not possible to have all Fs in waec result. If you have ever had F parallel in waec, it means your village people are sitting on your matter . 5. Cooking Beans 10 Minutes To Your Exam: If you have ever attempted to cook beans 10 minutes to your examination, chai, I don’t know what to tell you. Your matter is very serious… 6. You Still Sleep In The Exam Hall: If you still sleep in the examination hall… It means that there are many village persons you need to appease. They are really following you angrily. 7. When You Copy Someones Name In The Hall: If you have ever copied your neighbours name while cheating in the exam hall, it means your village people are after your brain. You need to meet Apostle Johnson Suleman for revival . 8. You Only Read A Day To The Exam: You don’t read unless it is few days to your exam, do you think this is normal? It is time to think twice my brothers and sisters 9. This Is Your 7th Jamb: If you have written Jamb more than 6 times, it means that your village people are serious about your case. In fact, it seems they have already concluded on your academics (lemme go and faint). 10. They Have Held Your Waec Result The Fourth Time: If waec continues to withhold your result, it means your village people are using your result to wrap Akara… lol. 11. You Have Been Writing Waec For Years: If you have written waec more than five times, it means your village people are matching after you… 12. Your GPA Is 1.0 On A Scale Of 5.0: If your GPA cannot even dial a number, hmmm, this one is strong |
