South East Records Highest Female Hypertension Cases in Nigerian Households – NBS Report

The South East region has emerged with the highest proportion of female household members living with hypertension, according to the 2023/2024 General Household Survey (GHS) conducted by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS).

Data released by Statisense shows that 4.6% of households in the South East reported female members suffering from hypertension—the highest rate among all geopolitical zones. This was closely followed by the South South at 4.4% and the North West at 3.6%.

In comparison, male household members in the South East recorded a hypertension prevalence of 3.6%, which is also the highest among Nigerian men, ahead of the South South (2.9%) and North Central (1.4%).

The figures reveal a consistent trend of higher hypertension cases among women than men across most regions, with the South East leading on both fronts. The lowest female hypertension rate was recorded in the South West at just 0.8%, while the North East posted the lowest male rate at 0.9%.

The findings call for increased awareness, screening, and health interventions in the South East, particularly among women, to address what appears to be a growing public health concern.

The fuel subsidy removal worked.

We are returning to low prices without having to pay $10 billion in annual fuel subsidies, to keep prices artificially low.

What we are witnessing is the return of ORGANIC low prices based on simple Supply and Demand like every other normal country, not on artificial fuel subsidies.

Fantastic development which frees up money for development of our great nation.

BREAKING: House Of Rep Reject Bribery Allegations Linked To Rivers State Of Emergency

The House of Representatives has strongly dismissed the circulating allegations that each member was offered a bribe of up to $5,000 to approve President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s request for the declaration of a State of Emergency in Rivers State.

In an interview with journalists in Abuja on Saturday, Deputy Spokesman of the House, Hon. Philip Agbese (Benue, APC), refuted the claims, describing them as entirely false, malicious, and originating from “the pit of hell.”

Hon. Agbese emphasized that the House’s resolution on the declaration of a State of Emergency in Rivers State, passed on Thursday, was driven by a deep sense of patriotism and a commitment to restoring lasting peace to the region.

He stated, “The accusation that members of the House of Representatives were bribed with $5,000 to support the resolution is completely unjust and unfair to Parliament. It is, indeed, very unfair. What we did on Thursday was in line with what I would describe as the wisdom of King Solomon.”

“The House of Representatives remains an independent institution guided by democratic principles, the rule of law, and the collective will of the Nigerian people. Our duty is to make decisions that align with the national interest, not to succumb to baseless distractions aimed at eroding public trust. The allegations of bribery are a desperate attempt to discredit the House and must be dismissed as the political comedy that it is.

“What the President did was like what King Solomon did when the two women who were fighting over the propriety of a child came to him. These people in Rivers, are all interested in the progress and development of Rivers State. They love the state, and they are working hard for it. But one way or the other, disagreements arose among the parties which escalated, and Mr. President, in his wisdom, decided to impose a state of emergency, for a period of time so as to allow the two parties to come together, in order to further deepen our democracy.”

He said as members of Parliament interested in the peace and well-being of the people of Rivers State, they approved the State of Emergency declaration in Rivers out of patriotism and not for any pecuniary consideration as being alleged.

“We have seen some of the developments in River State. The government is not doing badly. But what we are saying is that, we don’t want the breakdown of institutions as far as River State is concerned.

“We deployed our wisdom as a Parliament, not to pander to sentiments or views expressed by groups outside. Yes, we are a people’s Parliament. We listen to the voices of Nigerians. Of course, there are people who say the state of emergency by Mr. President is wrong. There are those who also believe that it was done in the right manner to ensure that there is peace in that state.

“As a Parliament, our interest is to form a bridge, to ensure that our democracy continues to work. As a Parliament, our interest is to protect our democracy and democratic institutions. We resolved as a Parliament to make certain amendments to the proclamations made by Mr. President.

He said the Parliament in its wisdom made some key adjustments to Mr President’s emergency proclamation before ratifying it.

“One is that, the Parliament remains the law-making body as far as the country is concerned. We resolved that the National Assembly would take over the legislative duties of the Rivers Assembly within the period of time that the state of emergency is enforced.

“Secondly, we resolved as a Parliament that it must not necessarily be for six months for the parties to come together and resolve. Even if it is within two weeks, that these parties are able to resolve their differences and show that they are on the same page, Mr. President, in his wisdom, should also reduce the period from 180 days.”

Hon. Agbese said he believes that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu as a true democrat, will not work against democratic institutions in the country.

“We know Mr. President very well. He is a democrat. He has fought for the institutions of our democracy as far as Nigeria is concerned. And he is one man who would always want to protect this democracy. He is a President that we know as a Parliament.

“We have been relating with him as the President of the country for the past almost two years now. We have been relating with him as our President. We have seen his concerns. The 10th House of Representatives has seen the the genuine concerns and we believe and trust that if these issues are resolved in less than six months, Mr. President is going to put an end to the state of emergency in that state.”

Traditional rulers should stay off politics.
As Elders, they not expected to take sides or be issuing statements like this.
Instead of finding means if settling the feuding parties, they busy doing something else.

mrvitalis:
My own is this... When Lagos governor is suspended for what ever reason the then president sees fit I don't want to hear anything

You see how rivers people took it? Take it like that too

EXOUSIAng:
You sat as an elder states man and you fanning Fubara while he was misbehaving.
Declaring the sits of house of Assembly members vacant.
You couldn't call him to order.
If Fubara knew he won't be able to keep to the agreement Wike brought to the table why agree to the conditions only to start fighting 2weeks after....

Fubara demolished the State House of Assembly,you kept quiet.

Militants came out and said they will blow up pipelines instead of Fubara to condemn it he came out and said "we would tell our youth when to act" You kept quiet and kept on fanning Fubaras stupidity.
Now you are crying foul....

The Nigerian Bar Association has reacted to the State of Emergency declaration in Rivers State.


https://x.com/afamosigwe/status/1902119807018774954?s=46&t=2AB_wrBea-oBYJf5ZCFV-A[/quote]This can not be allowed at all, he Tinubu can not arrogate him self such powers to willingly remove any Governor he thinks is standing in front against 2027..

Penguin2:
Zamfara has been in turmoil since the last days of Buhari’s presidency with Bandits recording videos and posting on TikTok and even sacking a whole village, Tinubu did not declare state of emergency.

Herdsmen has continued to massacre people in Benue but Tinubu did not declare state of emergency.





[b]Aside from all the places you mentioned, fulani herdsmen in conjunction with soldiers has taken over Eha-Amufu a large town in Isiuzo local government area of Enugu state , no single word from a president of a country, Tinubu is now Totally Mike's Errand boy just because of Polical calculation to capture rivers come 2027, A country where there is no regard for rule of law, to him rivers voters does not matter as long as he can Install Puppets to write results for him, In America no president can ever try this, even members of Congress and House in his own party will Vote against him to impeach him for such Aberrations

But 2 pipeline explosions in less than 48hrs in Rivers and he declared state of emergency and unconstitutionally declared the suspension of an elected governor.

Tinubu and his supporters are cowards.

We told you that can’t impeach Fubara. And knowing fully well that you can’t impeach Fubara, you chose the cowardly way out.

But still I double dare Tinubu and his fools to impeach Fubara if they are men.

They shouldn’t go through the back door.

Tinubu, a terrible leader like no other

Supreme Court judgements are God’s Judgements. They are final. Any High Court judge that rules against Supreme Court decisions will sacked from the bench.

I understand the court is in Rivers State, but I am very sure the Judge is fully aware of the Supreme Court pronouncement on this issue.

Any Judge whatsoever that gives a judgement contrary to the SP judgement will be thoroughly sanctioned.

- SAYS THIS WAS HOW FIRST AND SECOND REPUBLICS DIED PREMATURELY

- CALLS ON THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY TO IMPOSE SANCTIONS ON THOSE SCUTTLING DEMOCRACY IN NIGERIA

THE Coalition of United Political Parties, CUPP, has raised the alarm that there are surreptitious moves by those they alleged to be pro-Wike groups to get the seat of Honorable Ikenga Imo Ugochinyere representing Ideato Federal Constituency of Imo state in House of Representatives vacant by illegal means. It also warns that the threats to impeach the Governor of Rivers State, His Excellency Governor Siminalayi Fubara amount to threats against Nigeria's democracy.

In a Press Release this Tuesday signed by the Coalition's national Spokesperson, Comrade Mark Adebayo, the number one opposition Coalition in the country states that

"The twin threats to illegally declare the seat of Honorable Ikenga Imo Ugochinyere vacant in the House of Representatives and the current clandestine moves to illegally impeach Governor Siminalayi Fubara by groups suspected to be pro-Wike are direct threats to this Republic.

"We wish to remind those who misuse the levers of power today just because they are in government that not only that power is transient by nature, but that this was how the demise of the first and second Republics started. It was the reckless and draconian misuse of government power as we are currently witnessing that caused the premature deaths of the first and second Republics. If care is not taken in handling both Fubara and Ugochinyere's matters, including the imbroglio in the Lagos State House of Assembly, the country's democracy is terminally endangered.

"We call on all those fanning the embers of violence and illegality to stop forthwith and toe the paths of constitutionality and the rule of law.

"We call on the international community to call all the dramatis personae causing the political commotions across the country to order with immediate effect or even consider imposing sanctions on them."

This is a very serious allegation.

Akpabio should come out and defend himself.

AndroBlaze:
Don't mind them, to think most of them will open their nonsense mouth to abuse Awolowo for blessing the West with free education.

Eyin olodo, did it occur to una that the letter and the motion to impeach the Governor was not moved by the speaker ?

To put it in simpler terms for una, members of the house who signed are writing the letter to the Speaker who is the one constitutionally in charge of the process at this point in time ( the judiciary will do their part soon).

If you like you can wait for Falana or Ugochinyere to come and clarify for you again since una no fit reason for yourself.

Welcum:
Lol 😂 Why do people often accuse other people of what they themselves are? I tell you honestly, if you weren't the most useless human in history, you should have known that "fallable" is not in any dictionary and that it's absolutely stupid to say "I'll faith. Nor, would you come cursing yourself to hell over a simple question I asked seeking an answer from people who understand, not certainly from an absolute idi0t like you who has never seen the four walls of a school. With this your level of comprehension, I wonder why you haven't committed suicide. Animal!
