Rice pilaf.
I loved the grainy texture of the broken rice in my mouth.
It looked like couscous.
I think some rice should be broken on purpose and sold
That fish with extra pepper sauce and garri (as per cold garri o) will make pure sense.

Hi Sabi mamas,pls how does breast milk production work?....I'm almost 39 weeks and still yet no leakage of fluid from the breast and I hear that sometimes immediately after birth the mother has to breastfeed.Does breast milk production start on that day of delivery then or before? If it's before,are there meals one can start eating to boost it?

From my experience, I didn't leak but managed to express about 5 mls because I asked to on the morning of CS. Also for me the first two weeks were difficult as I was clueless and bub wasn't latching well. I had sore nipples that even bled at some point and then I started expressing and bottle feeding until boobs healed and I could position bub properly. I bought lactation cookies that helped me heaps. If you can't buy, lookup recipe and try to make it. Even drinking more fluid would help heaps.

I did it once but not deliberately o...but because I was tired of washing the beans again and again then...the moimoi turned out dark in colour embarassed but it was still delicious though
The beans were partly peeled and partly unpeeled
shortcut to washing beans. put your beans in a blender, add water allow to stand for 5 minutes and pulse, decant to remove the peels. Beans is ready!

If you want to go yourself, it's not actually a shop it looks more like a warehouse kind of, it's hidden behind the street with bushes besides it.

This is not myth sis. A woman that delivers vaginally should ideally give herself time to 'heal' before taking in again how much more someone that had a CS.

Of course it is my cup of tea and not yours, my point is don’t make it seem like anything less than 15 months post op is an abomination because different doctors and different advises lipsrsealed . Like I said most times they say wait 15 months when you want to do vbac

Getting pregnant 6 WEEKS POST CS is not an ABOMINATION. All good now?

Sis, register for antenatal care asap as others have already advised, seek medical advice if in doubt about anything. All the best!

Family planning is good especially when you don't plan to drop them back-to-back. You should use this opportunity to start looking at other contraceptive options for when the baby comes. It's a long way but like they say, proper planning prevents poor performance (you get abi?)

Stay safe!

Lol some Nigerian doctors and their myth, my current pregnancy is 4 months post my last CS and everything has been perfect , they usually say wait 15 months if you want to do VBAC. It like you can’t get pregnant.
My doctor advised at least 3-4 months before getting pregnant and I waited 4 months

The advise wasn't from a Nigerian doctor and it isn't a myth. Like I said, we all are different and so is our healing process. It's just normal to wait for the body to recover from the surgery and childbirth, I think. No one says you can't get pregnant. Of course, you can! Even 6 weeks post CS and that's your cup of tea. Good on you that everything is going well. All the best!

8 months post CS, isn't it too early? My doctor advised at least 15 months post CS. But then, people are different and the way our body heal is different too. No, breastfeeding won't affect the pregnancy.

Sports / Jayden Okunbor becomes second Nigerian to join Rugby League in Australia by Zehava: 9:34am On Mar 27, 2019
Belmore to Nigeria and back: Tears for Okunbor's stirring NRL debut

The Bulldogs have mum Donna to thank for pushing a six-year-old Jayden Okunbor into his first pair of footy boots, and father Victor for the proud Nigerian heritage that has Canterbury's latest local junior gunning to become Africa's greatest rugby league export.

Comparisons with former blue and white behemoth Jamal Idris are inevitable, so the 21-year-old winger embraces them.

He has also tried to recruit Idris for Nigerian Test duty at an end-of-season African nations championship in Lagos featuring the likes of Cameroon, Morocco and Ghana.

Four years ago in the Canterbury's inner sanctum, Okunbor told the club's top squad he wanted to be the best NRL player Africa has produced - Idris and then teammate, now opponent and Moses Mbye, who boasts Gambian heritage, included.

"In my first pre-season, we had a task upstairs where we had to put down our personal goal and lifelong goal," Okunbor grins.

"I said that in front of Moses and he sort of laughed at me and it's come full circle, I'm going to come up against him this week.

"We got on really well when he was here and it's something I've wanted to do and hopefully I can make it happen.

"He was young when I was coming up and he sort of took me under his wing and helped me out a lot."

African roots may run deep, but the Okunbors are as Belmore as they come too.

Father Victor is rugby league mad according to the towering second-rower turned flyer, picking up the game after emigrating from Nigeria as a factory worker 25 years ago.

"Loves his footy and watches every game," Okunbor says.

"He thinks he knows a bit more than he does but that's every dad I guess."

Donna is just as besotted with the 13-player code, once nominated for a One Community award for her work with Okunbor's Milperra Colts junior outfit.

She's now officially a member of the Bulldogs fold, a Canterbury-Bankstown junior league coordinator.

Okunbor played his first game at Belmore Oval around the age of 12, and has been in Canterbury's system since 13 having also represented his state at cricket and athletics.

Tears were shed when her son's upcoming debut was known, and Donna told the club's website she will be a self-confessed "mess" come kick-off Sunday.

Okunbor's likeness to Idris will no doubt be mentioned at some point in the stands and coverage.

Rather than emulate the one-time Test and Origin star, Okunbor wants to take the field with him.

"I've had to deal with [the comparisons] since I started growing my hair. I feel like it's alright," Okunbor says.

"He's a good bloke, he's someone I really looked up to when I was younger.

"He's the only Nigerian to ever play [NRL], for me to follow in his footsteps is massive. I can now say there's two Nigerians that have played.

"I messaged him not long ago asking him if he wanted to play in this Nigerian team that's getting organised at the end of the year. But he said he's a bit passed it at the moment.

"I've never met him in person or anything like that but I've heard good things about him."

Man posing as US soldier allegedly scams woman out of almost $400,000
By Lily Nothling


A foreign national from Africa accused of posing as a soldier from the United States in order to groom a woman he met online, has been charged with fraud after allegedly scamming her out of almost $400,000.

Key points:
A 34-year-old woman began an online romantic relationship with a man in October 2018 via social media
The man had a "well-structured backstory" as a US soldier and convinced her to give him close to $400,000
In a "disturbing" twist, the alleged scammer met with the woman, pretending to be an agent for the US soldier in order to collect the money
Police said the 34-year-old woman began an online romantic relationship with Cosmos Emeh, 32, after befriending him on social media in October 2018.

It is alleged in the following months, she was groomed into believing Mr Emeh was a US soldier, and sent him more than $200,000 through a money transfer service.

Police said he then travelled to the woman's house to collect a further $105,000.

She became suspicious and reported the matter to police after confiding in a close friend.

Detectives from the State Crime Command's Financial and Cyber Crime Group arrested Mr Emeh on Thursday while he was trying to persuade the victim to hand over more money.

He has been charged with one count each of fraud and attempted fraud.

The court heard Mr Emeh is studying a degree at a Brisbane university and denied having any contact with the alleged victim via the internet.

His lawyer told the court he only came into possession of the SIM card used to receive money and contact the alleged victim yesterday.

Mr Emeh appeared in the Brisbane Magistrates Court this morning where he was denied bail.

Police also executed a search warrant at a Durack home in Brisbane's west and seized a number of items.

Detective Inspector Vince Byrnes from the Financial and Cyber Crime Group said the alleged scammer had cultivated a "well-structured backstory" to deceive the victim.

"There was a backstory with this US military officer that involved the loss of close family members," he said.

"I would categorise this victim as a well-educated young person who has entered into an online relationship based on what she was told."

'Disturbing case'
Detective Inspector Byrnes said when the alleged offender met with the woman to collect money, he pretended to be an agent for the US soldier.

He said the in-person pick up was particularly "disturbing".

"It's very uncommon in Australia or anywhere around the world to have an offender involved in a scam to physically present themselves for the collection of money," he said.

Detective Inspector Byrnes could not say if the woman would get her money back and said police were investigating whether the accused had targeted other victims.

"This is a serious crime that has been perpetrated against somebody which can have a devastating emotional and financial effect upon them," he said.

"In circumstances like this, these generalised type of scams are not limited to one victim."

Detective Inspector Byrnes said people needed to be aware of the "red flags" when forming relationships online.

"The camera doesn't work on their phone so you can't Skype, you can't do it face-to-face — it's these types of methodologies used by the scammers to protect their identity," he said.

US soldier scam is common internationally
Detective Inspector Vince Byrnes addresses the media from a podium at police headquarters.

Detective Superintendent Terry Lawrence said it was a common international scam.

"The US Army Criminal Investigation Command receives hundreds of complaints a month from people who find themselves involved in an online relationship with someone purporting to be a US soldier," he said.

"Usually the offender's interaction with the victim is all online, so this further step of traveling to the victim's home is certainly something we need the public to hear and be warned of today."

Police said the case was an "urgent warning" to the public to be wary of relationships developed online.

"Take the time to evaluate the relationship, talk to friends and other loved ones about your new relationship online — we are thankful the victim in this instance took this step," Detective Superintendent Lawrence said.
