My brother, the best time to marry is between the age of 30 and 35. My grand father told me that a child should not be trained with pension money. Your first child will be 20 years when you are 60, not sure you plan to die young because of stress of school fees.

I waited for my wife for 7 years but when I turned 32, told her that I wont wait again. She agreed and I married her at 33 years.

Since she is good, passionately and prayerfully explain these challenges to her and hopefully she will listen. If not, go for a more matured girl and trust God for the best.
seven years! Fùck! You must be job's brother. If na me eee, within that period, she go done give me tiri pikin.

HealthGeneral Hospital Ifako Ijaiye Commences Use Of Electronic Medical Records by Parizz(op): 9:08am On Sep 11, 2021
The General Hospital, Ifako-ljaiye, has introduced the use of Electronic Medical Records (EMR) portal to capture patients’ medical records in order to facilitate workflow and improve the quality of patient care and safety in conformity with global norms and practices.

Speaking on the new development, the Medical Director of the Hospital, Dr. Bamidele Mustapha, said the EMR system is a digital equivalent of paper records detailing patients’ health history such as diagnoses, investigations, allergies, prescriptions and treatment plans.

He added that the EMR portal is designed to reduce the waiting time of patients and also grant easy access to their medical records for treatment during clinics and follow ups.

His words: “Presently, the electronic medical records are operational in the General Outpatients Clinics, but with time other clinics in the hospital will follow suit. With the use of the EMR, we can effortlessly identify each patient’s medical problems and the allergies they may have”.

“So, with such detailed information, our healthcare providers can easily give our patients safe, efficient and personalised care that they deserve”, the Medical Director asserted.

Mustapha, however, solicited for the support and cooperation of patients and staff for a seamless and successful transition from paper to digital records.

PoliticsOoni Of Ife Urge NAFDAC To Intensify Campaigns Against Fake Drugs by Parizz(op): 7:58am On Sep 09, 2021
The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, has urged the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) to intensify campaigns against fake and counterfeit drugs in the country.

Oba Ogunwusi made the remarks when the management of the agency paid him a courtesy call at his palace on Wednesday, in Ile-Ife.

The Ooni commended the effort of the agency in sensitizing the general public on necessary steps to take on proper medication.

According to him, NAFDAC has been contributing its quota to the development of the country by orientating the citizenry on steps to take to safeguard their health.

The Royal Father called on stakeholders in the health sector to join NAFDAC in the fight against fake drugs.

Oba Ogunwusi pledged his support for the agency in the campaign against counterfeit and fake drugs.

Earlier, the Director of Special Duties in the Agency, Alhaji Abubakar Jimoh, described the Ooni as a “philosopher of this era”.

Jimoh, who represented NAFDAC Director-General, Prof. Mojisola Adeyeye, lauded Oba Ogunwusi for his fatherly role, especially during the upsurge of the Coronavirus pandemic in the country.

He said the fumigating machines distributed by the traditional ruler in all the 36 states and FCT, was a sign of his genuine interest in the health of the people.

Jimoh said that the NAFDAC had intensified its campaign against the hawking of drugs, drug abuse, loading of groundnut oil in kerosene tankers, among others.

According to him, the agency is also campaigning against the use of carbide to ripe bananas and plantain, which can result in cancer of the liver.

Jimoh advised the nursing mothers on six months of exclusive breastfeeding to ensure healthy babies.

He warned the youths against the use of codeine and tramadol, adding that the drugs have adverse effects on their health.

PoliticsMilitants Don’t Kidnap Children – FFK Replies Sheikh Gumi On Amnesty For Bandits by Parizz(op): 3:33pm On Sep 06, 2021
Femi Fani-Kayode, former Nigerian minister, has condemned a statement credited to Kaduna-based Islamic scholar, Sheikh Ahmad Gumi, demanding amnesty for bandits.

Gumi in a Facebook post said bandits are going nowhere until the Nigerian Government grants them amnesty like it did to the Niger Delta militants.

Fani-Kayode, reacting to the statement which has continued to generate controversy, told Sheik Gumi not to compare Niger Delta militants to bandits as the latter does not rape or abduct children from schools.

According to him, Gumi’s demand is asinine and unacceptable.

On his Twitter page, he wrote: “ For Gumi to say that the killer bandits & terrorists are not going anywhere unless and until they are given amnesty like the Niger Delta militants is asinine and unacceptable.

“The Niger Delta militants did not target, rape, kill women and they did not abduct children from their schools.”

PoliticsCJN To Quiz Six Chief Judges Over Conflicting Ex-Parte Orders by Parizz(op): 2:38pm On Sep 05, 2021
Anxiety and apprehension have gripped the judiciary in seven states as the Chief Justice of Nigeria and Chairman, National Judicial Council (CJN), Hon. Dr. Justice Ibrahim Tanko Muhammad, is set to quiz them on Monday over conflicting court orders.

Already, the CJN has demanded the records of proceedings in all the suits from which conflicting ex parte orders emanated.

The chief judges of Rivers, Kebbi, Cross Rivers, Anambra, Jigawa and Imo states will be quizzed on the controversial conflicting orders delivered in their various states.

There are indications that the Chief Judge, Delta State High Court, has also been invited to join the other six chief judges to meet with the CJN on Monday.

DAILY POST gathered that the unprecedented move is to reset the anti-corruption efforts of the Tanko leadership and entrench a new culture of accountability in the judicial system.

Justice Ibrahim Tanko Muhammad is also likely to meet with the leadership of the Nigerian Bar Association in the course of the week over the matter.

PoliticsSenatorial Road Project: Bayelsa Woos Shell, Agip, Aiteo With Tax Holiday by Parizz(op): 9:00am On Sep 04, 2021
Bayelsa State Government has restated its commitment to commencement of work on the Nembe-Brass Senatorial road
project in line with its policy of completing inherited projects across the state.

Deputy Governor Lawrence Ewhrudjakpo made this known when a group, Progressives of the Central Senatorial District of Bayelsa State, paid him a courtesy visit at his office in Government House, Yenagoa, a statement by his media aide, Doubara Atasi, said on Friday.

According to Ewhrudjakpo, the state government hads already suggested that the Nembe-Brass Road will be funded under what is known as Tax Infrastructure Rebate Project to enable multinational companies to enjoy tax holiday during the period of its construction.

Ewhrudjakpo explained that abandoning any meaningful inherited project was tantamount to wasting the scarce resources of the state.

He said the government’s desire was to ensure that the Nembe-Brass Road continue at the same pace with the ongoing Sagbama-Ekeremor and Yenagoa-Oporoma road projects.

He said the Governor Douye Diri-led government had already taken some far-reaching steps towards the take-off of the Nembe-Brass Senatorial road project.

The steps, according to Ewhrudjakpo, included the redesigning of the project as well as completion of the environmental impact assessment (EIA) to mitigate its effect on the area.

But considering the capital-intensive nature of the project, he disclosed that government had entered talks with the Federal Ministry of Finance on possible ways to involve multinational oil companies operating in the area in funding the multi-billion naira project.

He commended the group for their steadfastness, courage and show of true statesmanship, and assured them of the present administration’s readiness to work with them.

He said: “On the issue of the Nembe-Brass Road that you raised, clearly there were some issues about it. But we have almost sorted them out. The only problem we have is that resources are not available.

“But we are still working hard. If you will recall, just recently we have started talking to the Federal Ministry of Finance to do what we call Tax Infrastructure Rebate Project.

“So, Nigerian Agip Oil Company, Shell Petroleum Development Company and AITEO Group and all other companies operating within that area will have a tax holiday in exchange for helping us to construct the road. That process is on because we don’t have all the resources.”

Speaking on behalf of the group, Charles Ambaiowei lauded the government for keeping faith with the aspirations of founding fathers of the state by continuing the senatorial road projects.

Ambaiowei, who is a former Commissioner for Works in the state, advised the present administration to do what he called, “holistic planning for the state” and give equal attention to all the three senatorial roads.

In another development, Bayelsa State Governor Douye Diri has announced a cash reward of N1m each to 30 retired permanent secretaries in the state.

Diri said the cash gift was a token appreciation from the government for their meritorious service to the state and the nation.

The Bayelsa governor, who stated this on Thursday evening at a send-off organised by the Bayelsa State Permanent Secretaries Forum in Yenagoa, appealed to the former top civil servants to make themselves available whenever they were called upon to serve in future.

Politics‘there Will Soon Be No Woman In The Senate’ by Parizz(op):
A very touching historical video by one Dumebi Kachikwu for ROOTS traced the history of women’s political participation and advocacy way beyond the popular Aba women Riot of 1929 that many erroneously credit as the first major intervention in political issues by women in a colonial Nigeria

In what appears like a passionate plea to Nigeria and African women to do what they know how to do best, he traced history to 1910 in Agbaja in present day Kogi state when women collectively stayed away from their homes for a month based on the suspicion that some men had been secretly killing pregnant women.

This action, according to history pushed the elders in the communities to address their concerns

Again in1924, three thousand women in present day Calabar took to the streets to protest the tolls imposed on markets by the colonial authorities. In the South West, women organizations like the Lagos Market Women Association, Nigeria’s Women’s Party and the Abeokuta Women’s Union were pressure groups that actively took action to stop the colonial administration in their tracks. He recalled too that the Aba Women Riot of 1929 was a collective action that defied tribes and religion. The women pushed for justice and equity and even though some of them were killed in the process, they still won as they achieved some of the aims of their protest.

In tracing the history of women’s standing up to the colonial administration in Nigeria, Ukachukwu is beckoning on women to remember that the they have always been active participants in the political sphere. He therefore wants women to stand up and own their positions in both the country and continent.

At the Roundtable Conversation however, we realize that the fact that Rwanda presently has the global highest number of women in parliament at 61.1% does not erase the fact that women seem to have taken a back seat in African political issues. Understandably, the 1994 genocide is a contributory factor there is a clarion call on women to intervene in the development of the country and continent.
The female power is still unmistakably valid at all times and now is no different.

The Roundtable Conversation for long has identified the effects of the lack of gender parity in Nigerian political space seeing that Nigeria with a population of more than two hundred million has one of the lowest gender representations in parliament with a paltry 6.9%. What this portends is thatthe Nigerian political space still excludes women as a carryover of the colonial mono governance structure that reordered the traditional African complimentary leadership that existed before the white men came to, in Achebe’s words, put a knife to that which held us together as a people and things have fallen apart.

The Roundtable Conversation sat down with the Senate Minority leader, Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe who had penultimate week delivered a Keynote speech at the inaugural annual conference of Nkata Ndi Inyom Igbo with the theme, “Enhancing Women’s Participation and Partnership in governance and Development”. The Socio-Cultural Group of professional women believes that we all must join in the conversation to find a solution to the leadership question in ways that gender should not be a barrier for competent and willing women to win elections in a democracy.

The Senator startled everyone when he pointedly declared that, ‘If nothing is done and urgently too, there will soon be no woman in the Senate”. He should know, he is in a Senate of 109 members with a paltry seven female senators! A House of Representatives with 360 members has only 22 women. Most state houses of assembly have no woman at all and those that have do not make up to 5% of the total number. No woman in Nigeria has won a governorship seat since 1999.

According to the Senator, the reality is that the number of women has been on the decrease since 1999. He said Nigeria must take decisive actions to make the political space more inclusive of women. However, modern politics according to him requires education and the literacy rate especially for women across some regions is still very low.

So first things first, education of all our children, males and females must be a priority if we must get ahead in a world ruled by ideas and technology. The leaders in parts of the country where the literacy rate for women is very low according to the statistics of UNICEF, UNESCO and WHO must make education of the people a priority just like they make that of their children.

Asked what he has done as a legislator to bring his fears to the fore and get his colleagues to act, he said that he had always advocated that we have to increase the number in the federal system to bring in more women. If certain appointments are based on Federal character, can Nigerians not realize that there is no gender parity in the Nigerian political space? Is the sense of justice limited to appointments in a country in dire straits that desperately needs the input of women in a complimentary leadership style?

He also has been pushing for a renewed legislative agenda in changing the laws to reflect the current realities in global politics. However, it is often a herculean task to get the majority to see the real danger in playing the ostrich. Some would often quote the constitution as it concerns federal character but see advocacy for political inclusiveness in another light. So if we can balance appointments, why not revisit our laws for gender balance? While we acknowledge the nuances of culture and religion we continue to push and persuade them to see the current dynamics as not very intrusive in that regard. We continue to knock on the doors hoping it works someday. We must continue to push for implementation.

Asked whether women in politics are doing enough to help their gender, he said the same acculturation men are exposed to are the same for women too because you often see women not supporting fellow women seeking elective positions.

So women in politics often have to work twice as hard as the men before they get results. Women must learn to sustain the unity they have at the rural community levels in party politics. They can work better with the sense of team unity that guides their interactions at the community levels nationally. Unfortunately it does seem they do not seize those moments.

Fundamentally, Nigerians must take stock. We can look around and see that the chicken has come home to roost.

When women are uneducated, there is likelihood of early marriage and with marriage as a child bride, many things
might follow. There are chances of the child-bride dying in pregnancy or labour due to reproductive issues which increases the maternal mortality, some might get the almost disabling condition of Vestico Vaginal Fistula (VVF) which subsequently makes them unproductive.

An illiterate mother has less chances of raising well balanced kids nutritionally and mentally.

The numbers of uneducated and unskilled youths that cause most of the social ills that affect all of us are all products of a system that relegate women to the background. Ironically, most of the political elites understand the implication because their own kids neither miss education nor do they become child brides.

Nigerians must begin to think beyond today. The idea of focusing on the short term is a huge problem in any nation that desires development. Our short term plans are very destructive to any nation. Nations have fifty, hundred and fifty years strategic development plans. It seems we are a country of here and now. The earlier we begin to address gender parity in the country the better for everyone. We have to be more discerning and make better choices.

The senator believes that political parties must begin to do intra party re-strategizing to chat a better political culture that can bring a change. The essence is for political parties to begin to create the template that can engender more inclusiveness and with it the development we all seek.

We must as a nation agree that democracy that must be viable must stop seeing women in leadership as ‘kind
gesture or mere tokenism’ to the female gender. There must be a reorientation for us all to realize that development in the twenty first century works better with complimentary leadership with women who have shown capacity and readiness to serve.

The serious issue of the decreasing number elected women across the country since the return of democracy in 1999 is an ill-wind that blows no one or region any good. It is a global truth that most countries including Nigeria with fewer women in leadership are not doing too well developmentally.

The recent pandemic across the globe has also shown the capacity of women leaders in other climes as most of the
countries with female leaders statistically have done better at containing the spread of the virus and subsequently its effect on their economies. It is wrong to assume that gender parity is a favour to women.

No, it is not, it is a way of life that dates back to pre-colonial and colonial periods.

The Amazons of Dahomey – present day Benin Republic got their title from their leadership gallantry against the French colonialists. Queen Amina, Idia, Moremi and a number of other historical women leaders are legends today that have earned prime historical positions even better than most men of their era. The myopia of the political leaderships in all regions must give way to better long term vision and plans. The divine that made us men and women thought of partnerships in more things than reproduction and home keeping.
The dialogue continues…

HealthDon Discovers Use Of Eggshell To Tackle Environmental Pollution by Parizz(op): 4:09pm On Sep 03, 2021
Omodele Eletta, professor at the Department of Chemical Engineering, University of Ilorin, has discovered the use of eggshell, coconut shell, sawdust and croaker fish scales for the prevention of environmental pollution.

In a lecture titled “Bad yet good: Rummaging and Combatting for Future Water and Land Security”, Ms Eletta also listed pawpaw leaf, coconut shell and cocoa pod, among agricultural wastes that could be used to combat environmental pollution.

According to the don, the exploitation of agro-waste could achieve both a strategy for waste minimisation and a sustainable production of energy and chemicals.

The expert warned that environmental pollution was an unfavourable alteration of the environment, adding that it was a global problem and Nigeria has its fair share due to the lack of strict monitoring of people’s activities.

According to Ms Eletta, every farm activity, however, low leaves some wastes in the environment and these wastes end up in various sectors of the earth.

Ms Eletta explained that different agricultural wastes have been optimised for the use of wastewater treatment prior to discharge to the environment.

She observed that eggshell has beneficiation and thermal treatment, as it could be used as absorbent for the removal of heavy metal from the solution, and also as a bio-resource in a number of formulations.

NYSCCOVID-19 Surge: NYSC To Test All Corps Members, Officials by Parizz(op): 3:30pm On Aug 31, 2021
The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) in Katsina says everyone, including the camp officials, must undergo a COVID-19 test before being allowed into the camp for the 2021 Batch ‘B’ stream ll orientation exercise.

The NYSC 2021 Batch ‘B’ Stream II Orientation Course is scheduled to begin on Wednesday.

This is contained in a statement issued by the NYSC spokesperson in Katsina, Alex Obemeata.

The NYSC state coordinator, Ahidjo Yahaya, gave the directive while meeting with the heads of all collaborating agencies for the exercise.

Mr Yahaya emphasised the need to secure all corps members’ lives and property during the three-week orientation exercise, which begins on Wednesday.

”Adherence to COVID-19 non-pharmaceutical protocols is
sacrosanct. Everybody must observe the safety measures, including the camp officials,” he said.

A few weeks ago, Information minister Lai Mohammed accused the National Youth Service Corps of disobeying COVID-19 safety protocols, resulting in a surge
of coronavirus cases in NYSC camps across the country.

Mr Mohammed also claimed that more positive cases were reported because the federal government had increased COVID-19 testing.

PoliticsKogi Procures First Nigeria’s Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment Chamber by Parizz(op): 9:30pm On Aug 27, 2021
Kogi State Government has procured the first hospital based Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment (HBOT) chamber in Nigeria.

With this development, Nigeria becomes the fifth country in Africa with such sophisticated medical equipment.

According to a statement on Friday, signed by the Commissioner for Health in Kogi State, Dr Saka Haruna Audu, this is great news for Nigerian patients who hitherto had to travel abroad for such treatments.

Audu said, “Whoever has been following the trend of achievments in Kogi State Health Sector must have now seen the purposeful move to turn the State to a choice destination for Health tourism.

“This is only possible with much thanks to the determination of His Excellency Alh. Yahaya Bello, to revamp the State’s Health sector and change the old narrative of a moribund sector that supervised substandard services.”

HBOT chamber is a very useful equipment that can help in healing people with both internal and external life threatening injuries as well as in health complications like air or gas embolism, brain and sinus infections, necrotizing soft tissue infections, arterial insufficiency or low blood flow in the arteries, radiation injury, especially as a result of cancer treatment, anaemia, osteomyelitis, gas gangrene, carbon monoxide poisoning, burns, skin grafts etc.

“HBOT is becoming increasingly popular and mostly used as adjuvant therapy to conventional treatment/management of some life threatening conditions to minimise healing times,” the statement said.

CelebritiesA Review Of Tiwa Savage’s Water & Garri EP by Parizz(op): 8:26am On Aug 27, 2021
Nigerian multiple award-winning artist Tiwa Savage returns with a brand new extended play “Water & Garri. This comes less than a year after the release of her critically acclaimed third studio album “Celia”.

Water & Garri, a five-track body of work features Grammy Awards winner and veteran rapper, Nas, singer Brandy, the Nigerian underground artist Rich King and Alte singer and soul music stunner, Tay Iwar.

Since her return to Nigeria in 2012, Tiwa Savage has raised the bar for female artists. She embodied the almost frowned on sex symbol attribute in the music industry, her music is filled with flirting words and expressions. No wonder when she called herself African bad gyal, no one disputed the assertion.

Garri is a staple food among Nigerians, water is used to take or make Garri. The title as used in this context refers to her mashed style and global collaboration.

She sticks to her heartfelt style in the course of making this album.

Tiwa Savage infused Rnb/Soul with Afro-fusion. The end product is a 19 minutes run of music with themes detailing heartbreak, love, hard work, perseverance, etc.

Nas and Rich King were on the opening track “Work Fada”, the pensive and reflective song preaches hard work and perseverance with Nas almost going preachy in his thought-provoking verse.

The six minutes long track is the perfect opener to the avarde garde album, who opens an EP with this type of lengthy play?

Only Tiwa Savage could do such, the theme is distinct and it’s a well-calculated risk.

In 2016, Tiwa Savage’s marriage with talent manager Teebliz hit the rock. Five years later, she seems set to speak her truth. She reveals a little on the Interlude on her last album—Celia. On Water & Garri, Tiwa Savage dedicates two tracks to that ugly incident.

Ade Ori is a soft-light take on past relationships/marriage. She is now independent while she is hopeful about future handling. The lyrics drip with pain and regretful lines.

Tale by Moonlight was a popular weekly storied program on national television. Tiwa Savage details her fairy tale love expectations on this soulful 90s house music. Even though she flirts and gushing about the guy, she is cautious. Amaarae’s whispery vocals compliment Tiwa Savage’s flirt takes.

Seven years ago, American artist Brandy visited Nigeria. At a press conference before her performance at Classic FM Valentine show, she revealed she loved Tiwa Savage’s vocals, she liked it to a 14-year-old.

Unknown to her, Tiwa Savage considered the Grammy Winner her role model and one of the reasons she is into music.

When they finally collaborate on “Somebody’s Son”, it is a perfect blend of two songstresses. They complement one another, Brandy even sings in Yoruba. This track is one of the up-tempo songs on
the EP. Its production is filled with Drums and mellow strings. Somebody’s son retains the themes of Ade Ori: it pleads for reciprocal love.

Tay Iwar and Tiwa Savage jointly closed the EP with a rollercoaster of deep expressive expressions. The horn-filled disco makes it sounds like a potential track for a Friday night out.

Veteran producer Pharell Williams called this project a classic but the fans failed to realize his caveat of it not becoming commercially viable. Tiwa Savage is unbothered if her recent promotional talks are anything to go by.

Water & Garri explores Tiwa Savage Rnb/Soul forte with an infusion of Afro-fusion, the EP is a dart between hope and despair.

The production is pristine, however, the songwriting is underwhelming.

The featured artists almost overshadowed her.

Although it’s obvious that this project is destined for the international market, the collaborations could have been lesser.

Politics450,000 Graduates To Get N30,000 Monthly Under Buhari’s Poverty Programme by Parizz(op): 4:40pm On Aug 24, 2021
Four hundred and fifty thousand graduates will receive N30,000 each month as President Muhammadu Buhari’s regime ramps up its poverty programme’s efforts to lift millions of Nigerians out of poverty.

The Federal Government on Monday in Abuja inaugurated the 510,000 N-Power ‘Batch C stream 1’ across the country.

In her keynote address at the inauguration, Sadiya Farouq, the Minister of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development, congratulated the successful beneficiaries, saying that the N-Power Batch C was divided into two streams (Stream C1 of 510,000 beneficiaries and stream C2 for 490,000 others).

She noted that under Batch C1, 450,000 would benefit under the graduate component, while 60,000 beneficiaries would be under the non-graduate component.

“Today, we are here to inaugurate the N-Power Batch C1. The N-Power graduate volunteers are entitled to a monthly stipend of N30,000 for a period of one year. The non-graduate beneficiaries are entitled to N10,000 monthly stipends for a period of nine months,” revealed Ms Farouq. “All beneficiaries are granted an appropriate starter pack for their trade to enable them to start their businesses in their chosen trades. By the special grace of God, I hereby flag-off the N-Power Batch C1 for the 36 States and FCT.”

She stressed that the ministry was committed to achieving the National Social Intervention Programmes (NSIP) strategic objectives.

Also speaking, information minister Lai Mohammed stated, “It avails the Nigerian youths the opportunity to acquire skills, to enhance their lives, and even create employment for others. I have no doubt that the lessons learnt in Batch A and B would be brought to bear in Batch C to achieve President Muhammadu’s Buhari vision of lifting 100 million Nigerians out of poverty.”

Similarly, Edward Kallon, the UN Resident Coordinator for Humanitarian Affairs, said the onboarding of the N-Power Batch C stream 1 was another “milestone achievement” by the government towards lifting millions of Nigerians out of poverty.

Meanwhile, the National Coordinator of the NSIP, Umar Bindir, stated that since 1960, the different poverty alleviation programmes of the federal government had remained “only at a programme level.”
