RetroviralS:
The day I found out I was HIV positive, everything in the world went silent for me.
Hope you could simply complete the remaining

Growing up, nobody talked about HIV where I’m from. We talked about malaria, typhoid, and sometimes “that cough that won’t go.” But HIV? It was a whisper, something that lived in other people’s stories, never ours.

I met Tunde during my NYSC year. He was charming, always the first to volunteer during health
outreaches. We started dating, slowly, quietly. We both believed we were being careful. Until the day I fell sick.

At first, I thought it was just stress. Then came the fever, the weight loss, and the fatigue that made getting out of bed feel like a punishment. I went to a small clinic in town. They suggested a test. I agreed. Minutes later, the nurse returned, her eyes soft but heavy.

“It’s reactive,” she said.

My ears rang. My chest went cold. The word reactive replayed in my head like a song I didn’t want to hear. I sat there, staring at nothing. When I finally spoke, my voice cracked.

“What do I do now?”

The nurse handed me a referral note and told me to start treatment immediately. But where? In my town, people talked, and stigma traveled faster than sound.

I almost gave up until I found Retroviral Solutions (RVS) online. They offered discreet delivery of ARVs and test kits. I hesitated before clicking “contact.” That message changed my life.

The next morning, an RVS agent called. Warm, calm, no judgment. They explained how I could receive my medication without stepping into a crowded clinic.
Days later, my first pack of ARVs arrived at my doorstep, neatly packed with a note that read:

“You’re not alone in this journey.”

That line broke something open in me. The silence. The shame. The fear. It reminded me that managing HIV isn’t just about medicine. It’s about being treated with dignity.

Today, I’m healthy, working, and helping others who are afraid to take that first step. Because I know what it means to feel invisible and what it feels like to be seen again, especially in a country like Nigeria, where stigma runs deep.

If you or someone you know needs HIV treatment or discreet support, reach out to RVS. We’re here for every step of your journey.

Everyone reacts differently, some cry, some go numb, some pretend it’s not real.

What do you think is the first thing that comes to a person's mind when a positive result is handed to them?

. Jennyclay,you don't know me . I'd have really loved for you to hear it from my banny's mouth on how I've been supportive to her . Don't assume everyman out there's like those men who've been toasting you . Just like it's in Physics --"Like terms attract each other" ,so it's with relationship..... you should change your circle, perhaps when you do,you may end up attracting men like my type even tho we're almost going into extinction

The man "begging" for one term is a Private Citizen...not a government official.

The first Lady....with an official #Office of the first Lady# is a Public property that belongs to ALL Nigerians; Duely elected by the Nigerian masses.: A mother to all Nigerians.

What kind of mother will be partial and biased to some of her Children. "Mother of Seyi and his Siblings" not mother of all NIGERIANS, a mother in her rightful sense on seeing the heaps of suffering, hunger and starvation would turn to her husband "father of the house" and call on him to at least see to it that there's a change in family policy.... Remi Tinubu is just a Front spending NIGERIANS money hoping to Lure them into keeping her husband in power but the Almighty God/ Allah in their infinite mercies would heed to the prayers of a Million NIGERIANS over a few in power Amen... Mercies of the Lord fall upon your children... NIGERIA is a joke

#zero8zero be thinking before commenting.

OK, let's say IBB is banned from contesting for the presidential election, what is next?

You guys continue to miss my point, Chasing and exposing IBB alone will not solve our problem, Nigeria will never never move forward by just prohibiting IBB's ambition. All these folks have to be exposed and banned all together. Create a new state, new politicians with fresh new rules and strategy.
Imaging, 99% of current governors are corrupt


and more than 40% of the same group are contesting to be our next president, And all we are focusing on is IBB, what you guys are missing is the fact that new developed invisible IBB is out there and there is possibility that this invisible guy will be elected and the history will be repeated. Instead of chasing IBB around like the only hooker in town, we need to generalize our knowledge and ideas to get rid of all these old fetid for ever.

Nigerians love quick fix, short cut and figureheading, I refuse to be part of this group, If you want to repair a problem let's get it done effectively, Don't allow this current administration to paint one fruit as being bad and paint the other as perfect. All these folks are bad or dirty or what ever you wish to call it, let's kill the whole problem not just part of it.
Think of this corruption issue as being a cancer and Nigeria as a country is the entity.

This is the reason why I refuse to participate in bashing IBB, You only think IBB is the worst beast out there because he's the only one being exposed vigorously.
Just like the old folks say " you don't miss what you don't know"


And in regard to privileges of the president's kids, I rather don't touch that, it is reality and it will be forever.

Let develop new rules and regulation for the next administration or big wig government officials:
1. All the kids of all government officials should attend public Nigerian schools, You guys will see how quick the Nigerian public schools will be reformed.

2. All government officials and their families must not be flown to abroad for medical reasons, they must utilize Nigerian medical system at all time, You guys will see how quick the Nigerian medical system improves.

3. No foreign bank account for all officials, You guys will see how quick the numbers of political candidates will start to drop.

4. Any guilty corrupt officials will be executed in his or her home town, You guys will see how things will change for ever.

5. And so on

I admire long term resolution not just short term, this is why I will continue to reject IBB bashing till every corrupt officials including OBJ are probed and exposed, And new rules and regulations are implemented

mrvitalis:
I have been saying it since and people from South West keep doubting it

South East with the least federal presence is the most developed region in Nigeria

Facts don't lie

Sheuns:
How many skyscrapers dey other regions?

Aside Lagos in the southwest, how many states in the region have skyscrapers?

phorget:
This is not too good, how can an omoluabi be threatening another omoluabi? I thought we have generally agreed that our threats should all be directed towards those people that want to hijack our dear Lagos from us.

SeeWahala:

Now the part that caught my attention was the number of Hours and number of cycles the jet was advertised to have. I did some research to see how many hours and cycles similar aircraft could fly in its lifespan. The manufacturer, Boeing puts its lifespan at 55000 hours or 90000 cycles. Our jet had 3821 hours and 1881 cycles. Which means, the jet is almost like brand new by the manufacturer's standards.

This only shows that the excuse of the aircraft being old and not serviceable was untrue.

The new presidential aircraft purchased is far bigger than this one and has a much higher operating cost. The former aircraft 737 bbj has an hourly operating cost of $6,000 while the new one acj a330 has an hourly operating cost of $29,700

NaijaRoyalty:
