Health / Re: Today,1st Of December Is World Aids Day!!! by plendil: 5:36am On Dec 01, 2015
The theme for this year is "getting to zero: end AIDS by 2030."

It might look ambitious, but if the current strides can be stepped up, especially the adoption of the new WHO guideline on 'test and treat' (not waiting first for the CD4 to crash), there are hopes significant progress can be made.

One of the best ways of preventing PLWHA from spreading the virus it is to ensure they are all on ARVs. Indeed UNAID reports the number of people on ARVS doubled since 2010, while incidents of new cases have fallen by 35% since 2000.

The first step, of course, is to get tested. Cheerfully, there are still many centers scattered across the country where this is done free of charge.

Time to act is NOW!!

Yes VERRRY correct!! The issue of male sex workers is becoming rampant in Abuja now, once is 8:30 pm business go don start especially in Wuse 2 along Niccon junction, Amigo supermarket, Garki Monday market and in big clubs.some of them are been patronized by those Rich and wealthy women,both single and married. But 70% of them are Gay. They are always well dressed you hardly know but from their display you will " decode them.Abuja is now Sodomy .

I regularly follow those routes, esp Wuse 2, but its mostly females prostis i see, not males. Moreover, its relatively easy to identify a female pros, but how do you know a male pros??
Religion / Re: Did You Know Japan Bans Islam And ALL Muslims? by plendil: 7:00pm On Nov 23, 2015
Can this really be true?? I doubt it.

Japan is a secular country, so i guess they would frown at any form of extremism, not just Islam.

You should be aware Japan relies heavily on exports to sustain its economy, be it electronics, automobiles, etc, and they enjoy considerable patronage from these Islamic countries. Should the latter in retaliation choose avoid Japanese products, they (Japan) would be worse off.

I didn't want to comment cos my prayer 4 him was said within. But seing ur post I decided to tell u dat the divinely punishment of this ur post is coming.
. freedom fighting is a divine mission carried out by rare pple who are ready to die for it, therefore, is a sacred mission. Nelson Mandela went to Jail for it but atlast they got it..some south Africans who are benefing already from the existing whiteman's government were not in support of Mandela's movement. If you have been in d university to study conflict yull understand that It has a cyclic nature and conflict is the only way of achieving desire of a group or Nation..It is positive thing to nations like China..Biafra is our Nation,Biafra is our Nation,Biafra is our Nation the pple dat died for it are waiting to see the FLAG up so dat they will rejoice and hug each other..KANU will become a hero that very day dat even you will rejoice with us and forgot you are not an Igbo man..

The nerve of it. Putting Nelson Mandela and that Kanu in the same sentence is as sacrilegious as it gets. PLEASE STOP THAT!! angry

Just for the records, I have nothing against your 'hero' and wish him all the best. But he should check his language.
You want secession? do quietly. You want to burn down your neighbor's house in order to build yours? It is only a wicked, evil, callous set of people that would do that.

But even more disturbing is that fact that, on this thread, one can clearly detect the open glee from some diseased elements obviously wishing OP's claim were true. sad

These are not the bodies of soldiers killed just a few days ago. Unless there is some substance that hastened the decomposition. PErhaps a swamp or chemical.

chinchum:
1 in 10, and then there are 9 nuisances

Govt needs to handle this issue with a carrot and stick approach, it should make family planning free , and easily accessible via primary health centres. Massive enlightenment programmes targeted at mothers primarily and fathers via mass media. God will never come down to take care of children for any one. Irresponsible parent should be sanctioned and made to lose certain priviledges. No parent should throw up his/her child/children on the streets to hawk commercial goods. It is wickedness to give birth what you clearly cant take care of. If you as a poor man have 2 offsprings, and you take care of the 2 with your meagre income, there is a greater chance the 2 will succeed than giving birth to dozen in to excruciating poverty and thinking like an animal.

Great post.

I totally our agree our government is doing nearly enough by way of enlightenment. However the free birth controls are already available in most health centres, but the education needs to be stepped up. Most are currently being done by NGOs.

As a country we are not overpopulated per say, the problem is simply too many poor people having too many children. I know some people have problems with such statements as it seems we want deny poor people the right to children. that of course is not true.

From our interactions we found that the problem is mostly with the men. Quite a number of the women are usually willing to try out the birth controls; but the excuse is "oga no go gree". Its not just that he wants to savor the feeling of 'skin to skin', he actually wants his wife pregnant again and again! Even if he cannot provide for his family, he can at least still impregnate his wife!! really sad

Health / Re: Ways To Prevent HIV Without Condom by plendil: 8:29pm On Nov 11, 2015
OP gave some good advice, but I have issues with some of them:

#5:. Insist on tested blood If you ever need a blood transfusion, then insist on only using blood that has been
tested for the HIV and AIDS viruses.
How do you expect a layman to know if its screened or not? Furthermore it has to be done with a special type of screening, not the usual rapid tests. However, I'm finding hard to believe any hospital/clinic, etc, in this day and age, with the massive campaigns and enlightenment, will transfuse blood not screened.

#7:Get treated for HIV immediately If you had s’ex with someone and start to feel flu-like symptoms soon afterwards, then get tested immediately. The newer HIV medications being used can actually help to stop the infection if it is caught soon enough. The sooner you get tested, the better your chances of stopping the infection

totally false. You get tested FIRST before considering and form of PEP. Even at that its only effective for the first few hours after infection.

lahips:


I agree with you but would also like you to consider the fact that birth control involves money, to either buy Condoms which is the cheapest means other than the withdrawal method which I cannot tell its percentage viability. Why would a man struggling to put food on the table be spending money on condoms or other birth controls.


This is not true for the most part. These birth control measures are provided absolutely FREE OF CHARGE in most hospitals and even primary gealth care centers. I know because my organisation is involved in the provision of free condoms, pills, injectables, which are sponsored by UNFPA.

But these people refuse. So its not so much poverty of the pocket as it is poverty of the mind (ignorance). The reasons vary of course, but from my interactions the cross cutting ones are:

1.The more the better. Its a sign of prestige, blessing or status. (That the poor creatures look tattered and unkempt apparently doesnt matter!)
2.Its God's gift, so HE will always provide
3.its the job of govt to provide for his children
5.chances that some may die before adulthood, so it better to have more
6. deep rooted cultural-religious abhorrence for any form of birth control.

Politics / Re: Biafran Guy Talking Sense Into The Heads Of Other Biafras *PICS* by plendil: 6:11am On Nov 11, 2015
OP raised fundamental issues, but rather than tackle them, he is being castigated.

In abakaliki where I work, there's a road known as 'looters avenue'. The reason is not far fetched: the kinds of houses seen there would easily deceive one into thinking one is in some developed 1st world country. The striking fact is almost all of those houses belong to career politicians who had little or nothing before the return of democracy in 1999. Apparently, they see nothing wrong in a commissioner owning a house worth over 500 million, and this is the midst of such blinding poverty in the state.

In Trans-Ekulu, Enugu state, just after NNPC, there is a multi-million mega structure also owned by a popular politician. This is in the midst of poverty.

Let us go to Abia state and see the horror perpetuated by Orji against his fellow people.

Its obviously easier to blame the Yoruba and Hausa man for the woes of the region, when right before our very eyes, corrupt, callous politicians of Igbo extraction plundered the region. Oh sorry I forgot, they must be efulefu. undecided undecided

That somehow the formation of boundaries around "Igbo territory" would automatically transform your greedy politicians into angels has to be biggest form of delusion yet seen.
