Patience Jonathan, a former First
Lady of Nigeria and the wife of former president Goodluck Jonathan, is one of
those who can strongly disagree with President Muhammadu Buhari on his views
about women’s place in the society. Recall that earlier today the president has
laughed off his wife’s statement about his plans of re-election in 2019. During
a joint press briefing with German Chancellor Angela Merkel he said: “I don’t
know which party my wife belongs to, but she belongs to my kitchen and my
living room and the other room.” However, Dame Jonathan, who is known for her
work towards advancing the rights of women and children, called on Nigerian
women and girls to stop limiting themselves, go out of the shadow and expand
horizons. READ ALSO: ‘Pres. Buhari needs prayers’ Fani-Kayode, Omokri hit out
over ‘insults’ to first lady, Aisha In December 2014 during the presidential
campaign Mrs Jonathan stated: “Nigerian women should no longer go back to the
kitchen. It is not our portion to go back to the kitchen. We have women that are
capable. We can contribute our quota to the development of Nigeria.” Garba
Shehu, the official spokesperson to President Muhammadu Buhari, has hastened to
explain the controversial statement of the president. Reacting to the
development Garba Shehu: “My friends, can’t a leader get a sense humour
anymore? Mr. President laughed before that statement was made.” He also
stressed that President Buhari respects the place of women in our society and
believes in their abilities. Mr Shehu mentioned that one of Nigeria’s most
sensitive office today is headed by a woman, Mrs Adeosun. READ ALSO: German

Interview Sexism or gender discrimination is prejudice or discrimination based
on a person’s sex or gender. Sexism can affect any gender, but it is
particularly documented as affecting women and girls. It has been linked to
stereotypes and gender roles, and may include the belief that one sex or gender
is intrinsically superior to another. Extreme sexism may foster sexual
harassment, rape, and other forms of sexual violence.
The Association of
Witches in Nigeria is not happy with the Power Holding Company of
Nigeria (PHCN).
The Niger state chapter of the witches association has dared PHCN. In a
post uploaded by a Facebook user, Cecilia Iniperitiari Dikibo, some
alleged witches were seen placing what looks like a juju on a pole. This
serves as an embargo for PHCH officials. She captioned it:

THE jinx of not winning the title since its inception may be broken
by Nigerian players at the 2016 ITTF Premier Lotto Nigeria Open.
According to the most decorated table tennis player in Africa, Segun
Toriola, there are possibility of Nigerian players dominating the
tournament this year. Toriola Segun
Twice Nigerian players have made it to the final of the ITTF Premier
Lotto Nigeria Open but they have not been able to clinch the title, and
with just few days to the kick off, former African champion, Segun
Toriola believes the title will not be beyond the reach of Nigerian
players.
Toriola, a finalist at the 2013 edition of the competition said he is
optimistic that Nigerian players have the wherewithal to claim the
laurel but three-time winner, Egypt’s Omar Assar has been
‘extra-ordinary lucky’ to have claimed the titles ahead of the local
players.
“I think Nigerian players have always been capable of winning the
title in all the three editions of the competition. It was just that we
were unlucky not to have won the title having made it to the final
twice.
I played the final in 2013 and Aruna Quadri made it to the final in
2015. Apart from this, Nigerian players have always been making it to
the semifinal stage. I believe we can win the title this year because
most of the foreign-based players have been doing very well in their
various clubs and the skills and talents of the local players cannot be
underestimated,” he said.
The former Commonwealth champion who will be attending his seventh
Olympic Games in Rio, Brazil was however thrilled with the turnout of
players particularly participants from Europe and this he says would
help raise the standard of the sport in Nigeria.
“I believe the presence of players across the globe particularly the
ones from Europe will surely help our players who have not been playing
against Europeans. The eyes of the world are now on Nigeria with the
giant stride the country has made in the last four years by hosting such
quality competition. I am hopeful that our players will surely gain
from taking part in the tournament and the profile of the sport will
continue to improve in the country,” Toriola added.
– Susan Asakpa is a female taxi driver based in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja
– She studied Accounting at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka
– One day her father bought her the car which she converted into a taxi
History books recorded
that Funmilayo Ransom-Kuti, a political campaigner, women's activist and
the mother of the legendary musician, Fela Kuti, was the first woman to
drive a car in Nigeria.
Today, while some women are afraid of
the car steering, others have decided to earn a living in the
male-dominated field of taxi drivers. One of such ladies is Delta state
born Susan Asakpa.
"I studied
Accounting at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka. I worked in a hotel for
about three years. There was nothing new anymore, no challenge and the
salary was stagnant. Later on, my boss called me up and told me that he
will be reducing my salary by N10,000. I was surprised."
Susan tells NAIJ.com
"Before
then, I have been thinking about what business I can do. I had three
business ideas (hair dressing, food and taxi business). I prayed about
them after which I chose this one,"
the young lady continued.
"I
spoke with my dad who happens to be my closest confidant and he quickly
got a loan from the bank and bought me this car. He has been so
supportive, not a single word of discouragement," she said.
With
the needed encouragement from her father who bought her a car on loan,
Asakpa began her journey as the first female graduate taxi driver in
Abuja.
Speaking on the journey so far, stated that her major
challenge on the job is being denied access into some government offices
and estates due to the colour of her car.
"One
of my low moments on this job is when I am not allowed into government
offices because my car is painted green which is the official colour for
Abuja taxis."
"Maybe
I read the law wrongly or something, but it is stated that if I want to
use my vehicle for commercial purpose, I should paint it in the uniform
colour which is green. I have lost a lot of customers and this has
affected my business a lot of times."
"Also, I have had
good times when others stopped me, often shocked to see me on the
steering, they hopped into the car and most times they even ask me to
keep the change (which is good for business)."
Susan continues
Miss Asakpa hopes to further her education and become a lecturer in future
The
beautiful lady declined to comment when asked about her marital status.
However, she hinted that she could marry a taxi driver if he is
educated, focused and speaks good English.
Asakpa, who is a role
model to other young girls, hopes to invest in her business, continued
her education and become a lecturer in the nearest future.
"My
advice to young girls is that they should dare to be positively
different because most of us are afraid to be different. Well that has
not been my challenge. Some of these young girls have the talent but
they are afraid to come out."
"I
know I am not the first girl who had this idea but today, I am the
first graduate who has come out to do it. There are graduates these days
that are diversifying. So be original,"
Hypertension is not just
a disease that affects the older population. More than 30% of the
people aged between 16-34 cannot regulate their blood pressure and keep
it normal. A recent survey showed that this disease may cause brain
damage and premature aging. http://goo.gl/Z8bxKS
Anyway there is a solution and it’s completely natural.
http://goo.gl/Z8bxKS
Constantly taking the medication to control hypertension is the
conventional treatment, but those receptor blockers are suspected to
increase the risk of cancer and other diseases. http://goo.gl/Z8bxKS
A research carried out in Nigeria by scientists from the University of
Edinburgh, England, revealed that one in every four Nigerian is at risk
of being diagnosed with high blood pressure. http://goo.gl/Z8bxKS
High blood pressure – also known as hypertension – which can cause
stroke, heart disease and kidney disease, is twice as high in Nigeria
compared with other East African countries and very few are aware that
they have the condition. http://goo.gl/Z8bxKS
The study also revealed that the figure will sharply rise as more
Nigerians continue to live like westerners lives until drastic measures
are put in place. http://goo.gl/Z8bxKS
There were more than 20 million cases of hypertension in Nigeria in
2010, affecting one-in-three men and one-in-four women and researchers
predict a rise in figure to 39 million cases by 2030.
Their findings have been published in the “Journal of Hypertension” and
it is the first up-to-date nationwide estimate showing how hypertension
affects Nigerians at an alarming rate.
High blood pressure is the No 1 modifiable risk factor for stroke. It
also contributes to heart attacks, heart failures, kidney failures and
atherosclerosis (fatty buildups in arteries). In some cases, it can
cause blindness. Learn More Here >>> http://goo.gl/Z8bxKS
