I dont know why people think he has a responsibility towards the mother, he should give to them if he has but not compromise the joy in his family. They live in UK and the wife is not Nigerian so all those dependent mentality doesn't exist there. Often couples put their household incomes together and allocate them to what their needs are. Marriage to a non-Nigerian is usually like partnership, where you cannot just give money to a cause that will not benefit you nuclear family.

jay bee:
Cultural differences playing out here.
If you love your husband and don't want this issue to put strain on your relationship then you have to learn how to endure as well as paying less attention to these differences.
It wont happen again if na me be the OP, she will not set foot in that house again. "Our culture" that is "so good" is what keep millions of Nigerian away from Nigeria.

Doctors should question patients about insomnia

Doctors should routinely question patients about sleep problems, as insomnia can increase the risk of a number of serious health conditions, experts say,

Left untreated, insomnia can increase the risk of developing potentially life-threatening conditions such as depression, diabetes and high blood pressure, but it often goes unrecognised and untreated, a review published online in The Lancet stated.

Around one in four adults experiences sleep problems, and up to one in ten suffers from insomnia. Typical symptoms include having difficulty falling or staying asleep, or feeling unrefreshed after a night's sleep. During the day people with insomnia can also suffer from fatigue, trouble concentrating and mood disturbances.

Most people with the condition are vulnerable to recurrent episodes and research suggests that nearly 70 per cent of those with insomnia continue to experience symptoms a year later, and half still have insomnia up to three years later.

The authors of the review, Dr Charles Morin from the Université Laval, Québec City, and Ruth Benca from the University of Wisconsin, Madison, said insomnia can lead to "substantial long-term effects" on people's physical and mental wellbeing.

People with insomnia are more than five times as likely to experience anxiety and depression, are at more than double the risk of developing congestive heart failure and diabetes, and are at a higher risk of premature death, the authors said.

They highlighted a study which found that people with insomnia were seven times more likely to abuse alcohol or drugs over the next three and a half years compared to those without the condition.

Although many with insomnia turn to over-the-counter medicines for the sleep disorder, the authors said there was "little evidence" of their effectiveness.

Despite the widespread use of prescription drugs and many turning to over-the-counter treatments for insomnia, the long-term use of these drugs has not been not been well studied, the authors said.

The National Institutes of Health in the US states that only two treatments - cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and approved hypnotic drugs - have sufficient evidence to support their use for the treatment of insomnia.

CBT uses psychological and behavioural methods such as relaxation techniques, sleep restriction, stimulus control, and education about sleep hygiene (e.g. diet, exercise, and the bedroom environment).

In addition to being an effective treatment for insomnia, CBT does not carry the risk of side effects, a clear advantage over drug treatment, said the authors, who added there was a shortage of therapists.

"Although CBT is not readily available in most clinical settings, access and delivery can be made easier through the use of innovative methods such as telephone consultations, group therapy, and self-help approaches via the internet," the authors said.

"In view of the high prevalence and substantial morbidities of insomnia, patients should routinely be asked about sleep problems by health-care providers.

"There is an urgent need for more public education about sleep and broader dissemination of evidence-based therapies for insomnia, and education and training to prepare health-practitioners to attend and treat insomnia complaints according to clinical guidelines."

The yorubas are quite tolerant!
monex:
my biggest fear for Nigeria is not Jonathan but the hatred of igbos by hausas (esp the muslim hausas)and maybe some yoruba's cos even my parents will not support an ibo girl but are comfortable with a yoruba.

the hausa man is partnering with the yoruba to further alienate the ibo. i dont understand the hatred for ibo. every comment i see on nairaland by an hausa man must have a hidden hate remark for ibo. even the ones who are forming de-tribalised still igbos.

what is going on?

Blackteeth:
Bullshit!! Am very suprised that everyone is agreeing to this silly idea. This idea you all are agreeing to is just an indirect way of admiting that we black africans are inferior to the foreigners (whites), and we are not intelligent enough to solve our problems. I hope you guys wouldn't be upset when a whiteman says we blacks have lower IQ to solve problems. Why keep denying that black africans are inferior human species when our actions prove otherwise? Why can't we africans solve our problems and prove to foreigners that we are much as capable as they are since we deny we are not inferior? Disgusting!!!
^

I do not think anyone supports the idea per se. Come to think of it, what has the Nigeria gov't done right since we gained independent, tell me what was left by the british that we maintained till date. Something need to change in our governance and we are still  not there yet.

The Igbo people have had heavily fragmented and politically independent communities.[29] Before knowledge of Europeans and full exposure to other neighbouring ethnic groups, the Igbo did not have a strong identity as one people.

Since the poster is concerned about corruption and ineptitude of Nigerian security forces, I'll suggest we outsource the job of the presidency to Obama as a part time Job.

Obama because he is partly African.
