Posted in: , , , ,

A mature man is more than just a robust bank balance. He’ll be empathetic, wise and secure in himself – at least in theory. He might have a few grey hairs, but they’ll just lend him an air of Clooney-like sophistication. If you’re tired of dating men who bring out your mothering side, here are our reasons to try someone a little more mature.

Survey Proves That Christians are Not Saints, They Cheat Too

Posted in: , , ,

People that think just because someone is a born again Christian he or she has a new, and somewhat elevated, set of moral standards are in for a big surprise.

Ashley Madison is a website that exists to help people cheat. Their clientele come to them because they want to have an affair – since they are married or are looking for other married people to cheat with. The site isn’t bashful about the service that they offer, either: “Ashley Madison is the most recognized and reputable married dating company” – although “married dating” does seem like an oxymoron.

Recently, in order to find out the link between religion and infidelity the site asked its members across the world what their religious affiliation was. Of the 105,000 participants in the survey, 60,000 of them were from the United States.

Tasty Suya and Tomatoes

Prof. Ignatius Onimawo, a food nutritionist has warned that that except there is deliberate effort to imbibe healthier dietary and lifestyle habits over the next 10 years, cancer and other Non Communicable Diseases, NCDs, will increase by more than 27 percent in developing countries like Nigeria, compared to 17 percent in the developed world.

Focusing especially on cancer, the prof remarked that studies to try to look at the aetiology of the disease, to find out where it all started, traced the incidence of cancer in Nigeria to suya consumption.

This he said was because “During preparation of suya, the  meat is cooked over an open fire, and oils from the meat undergo complex chemical reactions that produce toxins such as Heterocyclic Amines, HCAs that are carcinogenic (cancer-causing) in nature. The more well-done a meat is cooked, the higher concentration of carcinogenic HCA’s can form."

Lupita Nyong'o in First Print Campaign For Lancome - And It's Not a Lightening Cream

Posted in: , , ,

When Lupita Nyong'o got tipped as the face of Lancome fresh off her Oscar win, there was some controversy with Dencia making a reference to the lightening creams Lancome is known for. Now, the debut print ad for Lupita has been unveiled and she is fronting the Lancome Teint Idole Ultra 24 Foundation.

The ad is all black and gold, from Lupita's dress to her cuff, keeping the makeup minimal to show off her luscious dark skin [See Lupita in a Bikini].

Covering the last issue of Vogue, Lupita Nyong’o said of her partnership with Lancome, “It’s not about conforming to an already established idea of what is beautiful, and I like that. I am particularly proud to represent [LancĂ´me's] unique vision for women and the idea that beauty should not be dictated, but should instead be an expression of a woman’s freedom to be herself.”

Vincent Enyeama, goalkeeper of the Super Eagles national football team, is happily married man with three beautiful children! He is just 31 so he must have started early. I remember back in Nigeria when I would cheer him on for my favorite local club, Enyimba. He has certainly come a long way.

Nigerian Terrorism Worsens as Insurgents Bomb Kano School, Kidnap Sixty Girls in a Borno Village

Posted in: , , , , ,

I want to use this opportunity to ask what the Nigerian Military is doing. Where are the Chibok girls? Why has the spate of Boko Haram violence and terror intensified in Borno and even widened to include other Northern States? Did all the military move to Sambisa Forest and forget to secure the rest of the country?

This steady news of rampant terrorism is just demoralizing. And now these latest news of killings and kidnappings that all happened on the same day - June 23 - in different parts of the country? First;

About sixty girls between the ages of 3-12 years have been abducted by insurgents in Kummabza village of Damboa local government area of Borno State.
