According to him, it is feared that if the PDP goes ahead to produce a presidential candidate outside of the southern states and the APC eventually ensures that it picks its presidential candidate from the south, the main opposition party will lose sympathy as many Nigerians will support APC to ensure the emergence of a president of southern extraction by 2023.
Confusion in PDP Camp.... relying on APC moves and permutations
Wearing a nose mask in this period is one of the best preventive measures as it will prevent you from inhaling the contaminated air. It will also prevent the soot from getting into the nose.
2. Keep Windows and Doors Closed
Windows and doors should be shut as often as possible in order to prevent the soot from entering homes and work spaces.
3. Reduce Contact with Open spaces
Contact with open space should be reduced in order to avoid your hands touch the soot.
4. General cleaning
Detergents should be used to clean surfaces daily in order to avoid the accumulation of soot. This would reduce the amount of black soot gathered around the house and offices. Air vents should also be dusted from time to time.
5. Washing your hands daily
The implication of not washing their hands after being out all day can’t be overemphasised. While this sounds like a basic advice, it is important to note that it prevents the soot from contact with the mouth. Your hands may have gathered germs and might have touched the open surfaces filled with the soot.
6. Regular Shower
It is advisable for residents to take shower at least three times daily. By having multiple baths daily, the soot will not last on the skin to cause injuries or hazards.
7. Keep the skin covered
At this period when the city and its environment are covered with the black soot, protective clothing will help many residents. Wearing long sleeves shirts and long trousers or skirts are good options pending permanent solution to the pollution. 8. Avoid contaminated food.
Eating foods that are exposed to this contaminated air should be avoided as they could have been contaminated. 9. Raise awareness on the Soot There is urgent need to mount core and active awareness programs calling people’s attention to the inherent dangers of being exposed to the soot and how best it can be avoided.
I love the pictures you have been sharing with us this season. But I just want to share this my first experience Of White Christmas with you and everyone.
As a teenager, I always loved watching or seeing Hollywood Christmas movies especially on Hallmark movies Channel. Its something I looked forward to every Christmas.
The best part was always the part they play in the snow, build snow men or when I hear stuff like; "its white Christmas!" I remember I used to wish we had snow during Christmas in Naija. I would have given anything to convince God to change our yeye harmattan to winter.
Anyway to cut this long story short, somehow I traveled abroad and it was a wonderful experience. All my mind was like; finally, I will experience white Christmas. November arrived, and the cold was okay. Snow came and I was waiting for the type I used to see on TV.
When December arrived with the snow, I just began packing my bags. The cold no be here! It felt like living inside the freezer. Infact it was worse. My heart nearly froze. It was under a thick blanket and with my heater running at full blast 24/7 that I realized white Christmas na Scam. It is fine only in the movies ooh. Infact, the cold made our cold harmattan Christmas feel like childs play. I could not even go out not to talk of building snow man abi woman.That was how my childhood dreams came crashing down on me �
I am happily back and enjoying the Christmas season and our local delicacies with friends and family. Our electricity is not stable but the weather is simply the best for a Christmas celebration and I am loving our harmattan season with my full chest.
