Dollarman101: Don't say what you don't know. What do you mean by GEJ is not doing anything for northern christains? You know how many northern christains that have been elevated to positions of authority since JONA came in? You know how many road projects that he is undergoing in areas dominated by Northern christains? In Kaduna alone, there is the Kaduna Eastern bye pass road being done by Gej . Lafia-Obi-Awe roads. Are the northern christains not beneficiaries to the ongoing power reforms and improvement in power. The Abuja-Kaduna rail way is in progress.

On security, the Fg is not resting on his oars. There is the JTF operations. Soldiers are dominant in the streets of Kaduna. When Zaria was attacked, the president rose to the occasion and deployed more soldiers to curtail it. He met With service chiefs alongside the Governor to impose curfew on the state. When the security forces came ontop of the situation, the president had to travel in honour of an international obligation.
There is nothing to suggest that the security situation relapsed due to the president's absence. It was even around that period that Bama was killed by JTF. Abeg make we dey talk reasonably.

i think u dnt knw kaduna more than i do. So Stop diciving nothern xtian.

Good move from police.

ebamma: He that dwelleth in the
secret tower of aso rock,
shall hide under the
umbrella of PDP.
I will say of Obasanjo, he
is my godfather and my
fortress, in him i trust.
Surely he delivered me
from deputy governor to
governor and from vice
president to president.
He shall cover me with
PDP's umbrella, and only
him shall i trust.
I shall not be afraid of the
kidnappers in the east, nor
agberos in the west nor
bokoharam in the north.
A thousand shall die in Jos,
and ten thousand shall die
in Borno state, but it shall
not concern me, because
am always safe inside
asorock.
No evil shall befall me and
no bokoharam bomb shall
come near my aso rock,
for many policemen and
army always guide me.
I shall tread upon the lion
and the dragon, because
obasanjo my godfather
loves me.
He shall call me and i will
answer him and i will
deliver him when efcc try
to arrest him, with my life
will i serve him and show
him my appreciation.
Amen

this is beautifull

maclatunji: Fasting Matters: Eat, Fast and Live Better

On Monday 6th August, a Horizon documentary was aired on BBC 2 named, "Eat, Fast and Live Longer".

Michael Mosley has set himself a truly ambitious goal: he wants to live longer, stay younger and lose weight in the bargain. And he wants to make as few changes to his life as possible along the way. He discovers the powerful new science behind the ancient idea of fasting, and he thinks he's found a way of doing it that still allows him to enjoy his food. Michael tests out the science of fasting on himself - with life-changing results.

Having watched the programme, we decided to write a few insights about what we learnt but also to revisit what we already knew. This programme serves as a powerful reminder.

WHAT MICHAEL DISCOVERS

In his journey he explores 2 things: (1) Secrets to good health and (2) Secrets to longevity. The first thing he finds is that one should not eat very much paying particular attention to diet. From there he goes on to find a man who knows all about the growth hormone IGF-1 and about fasting. He tells him to fast for 3 days, the results are impressive, Michael reduced the risk of getting many age-related diseases.

He doesn't stop there. He goes on to discover what is called, "intermittent fasting" - a fasting on alternate days. So one day he will fast and the next he will feast. What is very interesting is what he discovers about the effects of fasting on the aging of the brain. Although the tests were on mice, they suggest that human beings have a very good to excellent chance of reducing brain diseases by fasting intermittently.

The results of brain scanning on the mice revealed something far more interesting. They discovered that hunger actually created new brain cells and so by fasting you actually increase your cognitive abilities. So it is exercise for the brain. Hunger makes you sharper.

He then discovers what he calls the 5-2 diet. Eat for 5 days as normal and fast for 2 days. He gives this a go for a few months. The results show that he not only lost well over a stone in weight but significantly reduced his body fat. His IGF-1 reduced by 50%, his glucose dropped to a good level, and his bad cholesterol dropped with his good cholesterol increasing. Therefore he cut the risks he had of getting diseases but if he continues, he doesn't have to take tablets at all.

In conclusion he discovers:

1. Good health and longevity in age lies in diet - food matters.
2. Fasting can be done best according to the 5-2 diet system.
3. Fasting makes you healthier.
4. Fasting makes you sharper.
5. Fasting is not everybody - certain people shouldn't fast, for example a pregnant woman he mentions.

Let's dig into this a little more....

WHAT WE ALREADY KNEW

What Horizon has done, is confirm a constant tradition of Prophets and the pious of this world. Over 1400 years ago - we were told the realities of fasting. Ever since then, we have numerous works on the virtues and wisdoms of fasting. They don't seem to realise that they have confirmed the traditions and habits of the Beloved Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم and those who followed him.

The Word Fasting

The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said, in an authentic narration by Abu Nu'aym: "صوموا تصحوا", which literally means, "Fast and be healthy." There is a better and far more accurate translation to it and that is "Fast and Flourish." There are only two words used here yet these two words hold so many meanings.

The first word is "Sumoo", fast, this word is derived from the Arabic root of "Saama" and Syriac, "Sawma." It means "to abstain" and when we fast we not only abstain from food and drink, but we also abstain from various desires of the lower soul. The word “fasting” in English is derived from the Old English (Anglo-Saxon) term ‘fæstan’ meaning to “hold firmly”, in the same way we would talk about ‘making fast’ or ‘fasten’, and the sense evolution is via “firm control of oneself,” to “holding to observance.”

The second word, "tasihhu," flourish, comes from the Arabic root of "Sahha/Sihha", which means to be healthy, be in order, to heal or to correct. The reason why the word flourish better suits this is that "flourish" means to be strong, healthy, develop well, to adorn, or to be most productive or at ones peak.

Therefore we discover that fasting encompasses internal and external well being. It isn't just about abstinence but it is much more.

ALLAHU akbar, am proud/happy to be a muslim

maclatunji: How can people be stupid enough to believe such utter rubbish in the first place!?

haba! Now i see comment, tanx bro

[quote author=al-ahamad]D height of disrespect....smh...[/quote]indeed;>

joskin: Naija news is marketable & always interesting

honestly!

dasparrow: The problem is, the youths are not ready for change. This is why they are easily bought over to silence the critics of corrupt politicians. Don't you see the 40 men laptop crew here on nairaland? Most registered in June of this year and all their posts center around defending Jonathan Goodluck. Market women too have been bought over by Patience Jonathan who sing her praise to high heavens.

So, how can there be a revolutionary change in Nigeria when it seems like most Nigerians are not ready for change? Nigerians are not united and have never been. We have blatantly refused to speak with one voice. Maybe, when more countries treat Nigerians around the world with downright hostility like we have been seeing lately, maybe just maybe, we the youths will wake up. When we realize that we have nowhere to run to anymore because countries are denying us visas enmasse and those abroad are consistently being treated like crap, no one will remind us to put sentiments aside and start a revolution and send these corrupt politicians packing. Until then, let's keep on doing what we do best: suffering and smiling.

PS: I will be back on this thread to make sure my post did not grow wings and fly away into oblivion since lately a few of my posts have been mysteriously disappearing. Peace, out!

i respect u sir.
