U-N-B-E-L-I-V-A-B-L-E!!! Igbo Women Are Prostitutes - Gov Rochas Okorocha.

The Imo state Governor, Mr Rochas Okorocha shocked Nigerians on Saturday APC Rally when described Igbo women and mothers as prostitutes, in his frustration of their refusal to attend or support his request for them to join him to his new party, the APC.

While it is still nerve breaking for an executive governor and a titled Igbo son to desend that low to make such low and derogatory remarks against the same women that stick their life to ensure that Okorocha will replace the former Governor Ohakim.

Anyway, and Igbo Proverb said that, "when the gods want to punish any person, they will allow such person to be making a sacrilegious speeches". That's what is happening now in APC rally in Orlu. -

To clear her name from the mess, Ruth has released a statement on the matter.

According to Ruth, “my attention has been drawn to attempts by Biola ige to drag me into the semi n*de picture that has been on the internet for the last one week. I, Ruth Eze, has and will never be involved in such acts and I advise Biola Ige not to drag my name into this mess.”

Before That Beautiful But Deadly Contact Lens Destroy Your Eyes

People choose to wear contact lenses for many reasons. Aesthetics and cosmetics are often the motivating factors for people who would like to avoid wearing glasses or would like to change the appearance of their eyes.

While some people wear contacts lenses for more visual reasons, others wear them just for fashion. Many Nigerian men and women put on these things without knowing the side effects and most young ladies wear the lenses for fashion sake because it gives them a more different look.

Long-term contact lens use can lead to alterations in corneal thickness, stromal thickness, curvature, corneal sensitivity, cell density, and epithelial oxygen uptake, etc. Other changes may include the formation of epithelial vacuoles and microcysts (containing cellular debris) as well as the emergence of polymegathism in the corneal endothelium.

Decreased corneal sensitivity, vision loss, and photophobia have also been observed in patients who have worn contact lens for an extended period of time. Many contact lens-induced changes in corneal structure are reversible if contact lenses are removed for an extended period of time.

Nigeriafilms.com spoke with a student, Destiny Ehimae Ebunuwele, she said, “yes, I wear them all the time. But I take them out before I go to sleep and put the lenses back in the case with the solution or it will become dry and prone to breaking.”

She further said that, “every morning, after putting your contacts on, pour out your old solutions. Please do not reuse. Make sure you wash your hands before putting them on and try not to let your contacts or solutions get in contact with water. There are organisms in water that can cause an eye infection, so in other words, make sure your hands are completely dry when putting them on. (Nigeriafilms.com)

Dangers of Soft Drink; The Risks in Long habitual intake of soft drinks

It has been experimentally proved that soft drinks are one of the prominent reasons for obesity. The weight gain is directly related to the amount of soft drink that a person takes in. With every single can, people unknowingly add many extra calories to their body weight.

* Another very common effect of soft drinks is diabetes. With every can of soft drink, people add large amount of sugar in their body. Long habitual intake of soft drinks can lead to ineffective insulin production from pancreases which consequently affect the sugar level in the body. This further leads to diabetes.
* It has been proved that frequent consumption of soft drink can lead to weakening of the bones and osteoporosis. Soft drinks impair the calcification of the growing bones in children.
* Studies also say that soft drinks increase the risk of tooth decay. The acidic content of soft drinks can dissolve the tooth enamel and make them weaker. It is recommended that people should avoid taking soft drinks between meals to prevent dental erosion and tooth decay.
* This fact may shock you, but is quite true. Researches have proved that constant and habitual intake of soft drink can lead to kidney stones formation. This happens because of the acidic and mineral radical balance. The body tries to buffer the acidity caused by the soft drinks with the calcium from the bones. This leads to calcium erosion, which ultimately gets settled in the kidney in the form of stones.
* Soft drink also leads to impaired digestive system. Soft drink contains phosphoric acid which competes with the hydrochloric acid present in stomach and affects its functioning. The ineffectiveness of stomach leads to undigested food which further causes indigestion and gassiness.
* Soft drinks cause dehydration in the body. Both the sugar and caffeine components of soft drinks are dehydrating agents. They both lead to excess urination, which makes you thirstier than before.
* Soft drinks have strong caffeine content. Caffeine causes irritability, restlessness, tension, high blood pressure, excessive urination and other side effects. It is also believed that soft drinks increase blood pressure. Some studies also claim that soft drink has harmful effects on liver.
* The sweetener used in soft drinks is Aspartame. It is 200 times sweeter than normal sugar and is far more harmful with many side effects.
Next time, when head towards the refrigerator or a store to satiate your thirst with a can of soft drink, make sure you remind yourself of all the side effects that gulping down the beverage will bring forth.

SEE Why Embattled Interior Minister Blames Doctors, Bankers, Teachers, Others For Recruitment Stampede

Interior Minister, Abba Moro has absolved himself from any blame over last Saturday’s stampede at the Nigerian Immigration Service (NIS) recruitment centres across the nation, instead, he blamed the tragic incident on doctors, nurses, bankers, teachers and others in paid employment. 
* Embattled Minister of Interior, Abba Moro

According to him, these already employed individuals thronged the various recruitment centres in their numbers.
No fewer than 19 applicants, including four expectant women, died in the stampede. Many others were injured.
Moro said though these categories of persons never applied for jobs with the NIS, they gate-crashed into the venues of the recruitment, with the hope of getting foreign postings and being pensionable if employed by the NIS.
Moro’s aide, Mallam Salisu Dantata Muhammed, who spoke on behalf of his boss in Abuja yesterday, said contrary to reports, the ministry put in place logistics to contain crowds at the centres.
He also blamed the social media for the stampede, saying that many of the applicants were inviting friends and relatives who did not apply for the job to the centres through Facebook, text messages and other portals.
Muhammed said: “It’s odd that many of those who turned up included employed bankers, engineers, medical doctors, nurses, teachers and others who wanted to cross over to the Immigration Services at all costs.
“The Minister and officials of his ministry considered last Saturday’s incident as very regrettable, more so as the unexpected huge crowd shattered the near perfect arrangements they had put in place against anticipated huge crowd.
“The Interior Ministry made adequate provisions for the expected mammoth crowd at the National Stadium meant to conveniently sit 75,000 people." (Naij)
