People who relax during the weekend or whenever they get the opportunity are happier. They are able to achieve more than those who do not relax when it’s absolutely required. So focus on the more important things and then you can effectively contribute to the bigger whole, Nigeria.

There are many kidnap cases that happen too frequently in Nigeria. Many have left a kidnapping standard where fraudsters are obliged to blackmail their loved ones of an outrageous amount of money. They only target the high net worth individuals such as businessmen, politicians, traditional rulers and so on. Some of these young adults who are children of the high targets in Nigeria are said to plan their kidnappings themselves due to the short ration they are fed from home. Although there are no true statistics showing the rate. These individuals would go through lengthiness for anything at the cost of their relative’s happiness.

A number of persons including Nigerians themselves are oblivious of the multitude of efforts, sacrifice and contributions that Nigeria has been making in safeguarding and elevating many countries especially in Africa.

5.7 billion USD is a huge amount of money. That’s about 2 trillion naira or 20 – 25% of Nigeria’s annual budget. Imagine investing that huge amount in roads infrastructure, education, healthcare and water, projects that will yield immediate benefits and without having to wait for 6 – 10 years to complete?

In a country where the presidency still maintains a fleet of private jets, where lawmakers budget billions of naira to buy luxury cars and where tales of official profligacy travel far and wide, it is difficult to convince Nigerians that this new VAT increase and other austerity measures are not merely attempts by the government to force poor Nigerians to service the luxuries of public officials.

First, let me put this out there. I think I had a really interesting childhood. I remember all the taboos my parents came up with to scare us kids away from certain things, and I laugh hard. Like me, most children in Nigeria are raised to believe that their parents know best. And many do… at least until we grow up and realize all the falsehood we’ve been fed over the years.

Tooth plaque occurs when food waste accumulates on the internal and external surfaces of the teeth. This is when foods such as cakes, candy, milk, biscuits, maize, milk, etc. are left on the teeth. This makes the bacteria that live in the mouth as normal microflora (they live there without harm) thrive on these foods and produce acids that later destroy tooth enamel, resulting in tooth decay. It can also develop in the tooth rot under the gum and cause breakdown of the bone supporting the tooth.
