Now I choose to be called first lady -Aisha Buhari

Image
The wife of the President, Aisha Buhari, says Nigerians can now address her as first lady. Recall that when her husband assumed office for his first term in 2015, Mrs Buhari released a statement saying she wouldn't want to be addressed as first lady but as wife of the President. Well, it appears she has had a change of heart. While speaking at the presentation of awards to the former and current wives of Governors of the 36 states at the Banquet Hall of the Presidential Villa, Abuja yesterday Thursday June 13th, Mrs Buhari said her decision to accept the title of first lady was in order to resolve the issue of the title of wives of governors. “When my husband was newly elected, I personally chose to be called the wife of the President. But, I realised that it causes confusion from the state as to whether the wives of state governors are to be addressed as the first ladies or wives of the governors. So, forgive me for confusing you from the beginning, but now I chose to be c

Mixed reactions as Buhari vows to rebuild Nigeria, renames stadium after MKO

President Muhammadu Buhari on Wednesday honoured the winner of the June 12 1993 presidential election, the late Chief MKO Abiola, by renaming the Abuja National Stadium after him. The President said this in a speech he read at the first National Democracy Day celebration in Abuja, stating that he approved June 12 as the nation’s Democracy Day as part of the healing and reconciliation efforts for the annulment of the presidential election. He also said with purposeful leadership, the Federal Government could move 10 million Nigerians out of poverty in 10 years. But the opposition Peoples Democratic Party and its presidential candidate in the 2019 election, Atiku Abubakar, said it was sad that the country was celebrating Democracy Day under Buhari, whose policies they claimed negated the June 12 spirit and ideals of the late Abiola. They said the Buhari administration had desecrated all the nation’s democratic values and despoiled the electoral processes just to

What is baldness? Baldness, also known as hair loss or alopecia in medical parlance, is the loss of hair from any hair-bearing part of the body. Most of the time, the head is involved, but any other part of the human body could be involved.  Usually, daily, up to 50-100 strands of hair are shed from the body. By standard definition, when more than 100 hair strands are lost per day, we can say the individual has alopecia. Disorders of hair loss can involve the hair follicle, which is more or less the ‘organ’ within the skin that regulates hair growth, or it can affect the hair shaft itself. By age 30, 10 to 12 per cent of women had experienced one form of hair loss or the other, and by age 70, 30 to 40 per cent of women had suffered hair loss. What causes baldness? There are a plethora of causes. The most frequent cause of hair loss in men is male-pattern hair loss, which is due to a combination of genetics, hormone, and oxidative stress/inflammation and micron
