It looks like you are also Fe, Cu and Zn-deficient. Otherwise how can somebody lacking those essential elements consider himself superior? Warped logic.

ABSTRACT
This study assessed the iron, zinc and copper status of primary school-attending children in Lagos. A sample of 200 primary School-attending children was randomly selected using a stratified 2―stage sampling technique. Data was collected in the 2 major seasons in Nigeria; Dry and Rainy seasons using dietary intake (24 hr dietary recall protocol) venipuncture blood samples, and a self-administered questionnaire. The data were analyzed using descriptive and in-ferential statistics. Among ages 5 - 8 years, the main dietary intake for iron was 10.66 ± 12.44 mg/d (106% of DRI), for zinc, 7.30 ± 7.39 mg/d (92% of DRI) and for copper, 1.55 ± 1.31 mg/d (390% of DRI). For ages 9 - 13 yrs, the mean intake of micronutrients showed that iron was 11.03 ± 12.72 mg/d (138% of DRI), zinc was 8.44 ± 7.79 mg/d (105% of DRI) and copper was 3.75 ± 15.17 mg/d (536% of DRI). Biochemical results indicated that 19.8% of the subjects had inadequate serum iron, 21% and 32.1% were zinc and copper deficient respectively. Prevalence of anemia was 38.1% while iron deficiency anemia was 13.06% and iron deficiency was 34.6%. Dietary intakes did not provide right amounts of micronutrients to meet body requirements. There is the need to formulate and implement nutrition education pro-grams to correct micronutrient deficiency among primary school-attending children in Lagos, Nigeria.

This must be a lie! No Igbo man is involve with fuel subsidy scam. They are all northerners and South westners; more reasons why they are the only ones protesting. There is a mix up somewhere! Igbos are not thieves, they are very hardworking. Cool
Igbos did not protest the fuel subsidy removal to allow people like this stop milking Nigeria dry. In contrast, Yorubas protested the removal to allow people like this to continue to milk Nigeria dry. This is just 5 Billion. Adenuga, Otedola, Wale Tinubu and Otudeko will be refunding trillions.

After now una go claim say Igbos no follow protest. Many of the names there na Igbos, just like 1000s of Igbos in Lagos and elsewhere follow protest the subsidy removal.
Na so Igbos (for e.g., Late Chima Ubani, Ralph Obiora, Ndubuisi Kanu, Olisa Agbakoba and a host of others) follow fight for June 12 in NADECO now una dey deny their input. Na God go dey judge una.

And talking about the war, it is a stage in the life of the Igbo nation that cannot be wished away.
PoliticsRe: Igbos And Yorubas: Do We Really Hate Each Other? by Nchara: 10:44pm On Jan 18, 2012
Igbos don't hate Yorubas, but many Yorubas hate/resent/dislike/loath (take your pick) Igbos. And such hate-filled ones have shown it in so many ways

Please get for me one single comment made in real life from a notable Igbo about the Yoruba

Here I will give you examples of comments made by notable Yorubas about the Igbo.

Then you decide who hates who

1. ''Igbos should leave politics and face trading, what they know how best to do''----------  Adesanya's daughter when she was a minister sometime between 1999 and 2007
2. ''Igbos will be wiped out''----------  A notable Yoruba lawyer working for ACN recently (2011) made this comment. He has apologized however. This was here on nairaland. Can anyone remember?
3. ''I dealt with your ragtag Biafra army, I will deal wit you again''---------Oluwole Rotimi former ambassador to US to Ojo Maduekwe (2009), then minister of foreign affairs.
4. ''I will kill anything walking in Igbo land''-------------Adekunle during the Biafra war
5. ''Starvation is a weapon of war and we used it on the Igbos''-------------Awolowo
6. ''The Igbos wanted your oil''--------- Obasanjo  a few years back in Bayelsa when he went to either campaign or as a sitting president. Now we know how many Igbos licking the oil, compared to Hausa and Yoruba.

BTW, this is a public service post. I am not condemning or supporting anything here. Everyone is free to enjoy their lives the way they want to. But I would like to ask a few nagging questions

1. What is this guy? ( I mean who is he, excluding his parents influence?)
2. Knowing him will help explain how he is able to live a particular kind of lifestyle
3. If he is somebody, then he probably can afford the cost of how he lives.
4. If he is a nobody, how does he afford the cost of how he lives?

Yeah!, His dad was the Chief of Naval Staff and also a former military Governor back in the years. So the old man could have amassed some wealth by fair and fowl means.

His mother is presently a minister-  for good or bad, we know what Nigerian ministers can do, no?

If this guy is a nobody for himself, where is the cash he is burning coming from? From his father, mother, or from both?

Some of us protested in favor, others against. Those for will have to defend themselves. Those against likeself me did so because subsidy removal was good with me. Why do you have a problem with what is good for me? Are you an enemy of progress?

PoliticsRe: Residents In Abia, Anambra, Enugu Grown Over Fuel At N165- N170 Per Litre by Nchara: 3:19am On Jan 18, 2012
The fact is that since the refineries and depots went dead, giving way to fuel importation, fuel has always been more expensive in the SE and SS than elsewhere (may be except the North) ------------even b4 the subsidy removal.

Most imports are from Lagos, hence fuel was cheaper in the SW. I hope the removal of subsidy and refurbishing of the refineries and the depots in in PH, Enugu and Aba will bring back the lost glory.

Sbeezysy the fool

Read the topic. It is about loudness of the protest as opposed to the protest in itself. Of course every zone protested but differently. Some (SW/North) protested as though their lives depended on it, while the SE and SS protested like civilized gentlemen.
