Save Our Lives By Stopping Gas Flaring ln Niger Delta, Mulade Tells President Buhari

Save Our Lives By Stopping Gas Flaring ln Niger Delta, Mulade Tells President Buhari

Warri_____ The National Coordinator of the Center for Peace and Environmental Justice, CEPEJ, Comrade (Chief) Sheriff Mulade recently in Warri, Delta state, has warned on the likely severe consequences of continued gas flaring in the Niger Delta region, demanding that the time has come for the Federal Government to do something to stop the unhealthy environment practice.

Recall that despite the pledge over the years by the Federal Government of Nigeria to stop the flaring of gas in the Niger Delta region, the unsafe environmental practice is still ongoing by oil operators in the southern part of the country. This is even more worrisome when the Federal Government's 2020 projection deadline to end the unsafe environmental practice has continued to remain elusive.

Making the call during a visit to bastardized environment around Warri River, Chief Mulade expressed worry and disappointment over the unending practice in the oil producing areas in the region.

According to the CEPEJ National Coordinator, "Gas flaring involves the release of greenhouse gasses such as carbon dioxide (Co2) biochemical smog and their particular matter derivatives such as sulphates and nitrates.

 

"This, contributes immensely to climate change, which has serious ecological impacts on the Niger Delta environment.

 

"Beyond this, it has been scientifically proven that gas flaring causes visibility problems, environmental degradation, harm to public health and gives rise to atmospheric contaminants which acidify and deplete soil nutrients, resulting in low crop yield," he stated.

 

The chieftain from Gbaramatu Kingdom expressed worries that the high level for gas flaring in the Niger Delta has negative economic and environmental consequences because the process of doing it is simultaneously polluting the air, water and soil in the region.

 

"Those living in the region and exposed to the drinking of polluted water or consumption of contaminated food have suffered from unexplainable diseases" warning that "the heavy metals released into the atmosphere are metallic chemical elements which have relatively high density and low concentration of toxic or poisonous substances.

"It is worthy of note that gas flaring has destroyed the ozone layer in the region, therefore government at all levels must do everything humanely possible to save lives," he appealed.

Nigerian Doctor Warns Young Ladies To Stop Putting Toothpaste ln Their Vagina

Nigerian Doctor Warns Young Ladies To Stop Putting Toothpaste ln Their Vagina

A Nigerian doctor, Olufunmilayo has warned ladies against putting toothpaste in their vagina in a bid to get it tighter. In a Twitter thread shared on his handle, Olufunmilayo warned against the practice, stating that it is harmful. He went on to enlist some of the dangers that ladies can be exposed to when they engage in such practice.

“Toothpaste makes vagina tight” NEVER DO IT PLS!!!! Vagina irritation Smelly vagina Abnormal vagina discharge Vagina/pelvic infections Difficulty getting pregnant.

 NEVER PUT TOOTHPASTE IN VAGINA NEVER PUT TOOTHPASTE IN VAGINA NEVER PUT TOOTHPASTE IN VAGINA. 

The problem with bad advice is that you can never tell how far it travels. And more often than not- it tends to travel a whole lot further than good advice. And when the damage is all done- Only the owner of the vagina and her loved ones will be there to deal with all the mess. Toothpaste is caustic, very toxic and really abrasive for a sensitive part of the body like the vagina. You put yourself at the risk of irritation, inflammation, destruction of the normal organisms that protect your vagina from infections and open up yourself to a lot of harm. Once toothpaste destroys the normal natural organisms that keep your vagina healthy, you become prone to infections- which then causes you to have excessive, foul smelling vagina discharge and infections which can damage your tubes (and chances of getting pregnant) as a woman. If you get a terrible infection- especially repeatedly- if you don’t learn your lessons quick and desist- The infection can ruin your tubes- You can later in life find it difficult to get pregnant from the blocked tubes- Or if you get pregnant- it may be in an abnormal place. So ask yourself again- Is it worth it? To what end? This whole obsession with “tight vagina” is very unhealthy and is driving some people absolutely insane. You need to really slow down and stop being eager to try adventurous nonsense ideas that can potentially ruin your womb. I have said it repeatedly-

The vagina cleans itself, by itself, in its own way, with its own juices and remains sparkling clean – without needing any help from you. The body has an efficient effective system for this- and it does it flawlessly. That’s a real proven medical fact. Problems most times start when people start doing all sorts with their vagina. Pour soap inside. Wash with vim. Put vagina pearls. Add some spices. Use some okro. Try some toothpaste. These wild woke silly nonsense ideas are some of the things that give a lot of women problems. Your vagina is tight enough. Your vagina is good enough. Your vagina is just perfect. You are fine as you are. Don’t let peer pressure and wild online claims of sexual wonder magic ideas or vagina products lead you on a journey of ruin and regret. It’s not worth it. Thank you!”

Okowa Flood Funds, Burutu Council Begins Disbursement Of Cash, As ​Angele Calls On FG Intervention

Okowa Flood Funds, Burutu Council Begins Disbursement Of Cash, As ​Angele Calls On FG Intervention

Francis Tayor

Warri_____The Chairman of Burutu Local Government Area of Delta State, Rt. Hon. Godknows Angele has begin the disbursement of Gov. Okowa flood relief funds to the various affected communities in the council, thereby calling on the federal government to intervene in order to find a permanent solution to the perennial flood menace affecting riverine areas in the country.

It was confirmed that the  sum of #500,000,00 each was disbursed on Monday to all the eleven (11) federal wards constituting Burutu Local Government Area.

Also, an additional #30,000,00 provision was made available for logistic purposes for onward disbursement of the cash to the flood victims in the various communities through the ward leaders. 

According to Angele, said his office is complementing the efforts of the state Government financially in reaching out to the flood victims across the LGA. 

He stressed that by the disbursement arrangement, each ward is getting #500,000,00 each and #30,000,00 logistics, noting that the council is disbursing the money through the various Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) ward leaders across the council.

When asked if the money will really get to the affected flood victims in the communities without being diverted, Angele said the ward leaders are all people with proven track records of integrity. 

He said there is no doubt about it that the money is going directly to the flood victims in the various communities constituting Burutu Local Government Area of Delta State, adding that there are even sub committees at the ward level. 

He explained further that while carrying out the directives of the Delta State Government headed by His Excellency, Sen. Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa, the #500,000,00 will be disbursed to 100 (hundred) families per ward across the Local Government.

That means, about 1100 (One Thousand and one hindered) families have been drafted out to benefit from the gesture. 

According to a list obtained from council, signed by Hon. Godknows Angele, the ward leaders drafted out to receive the cash for further disbursement to the various communities include  Mr. Progress Dimaro, ward 1; Hon. Fungewei Azami, ward 2,  Mr. James Nieketen, ward 3; Hon. Dan Yingi, ward 4; Hon. Gilbert Benefa, ward 5; DCN Arede Edeimene, ward 6; Godwin Edumogiren, ward 7; Barr. Chief Isa Clark 8; Hon Richard Numa, ward 9; Mr. Ignatius Ziakegha, ward 10 as well as Amb. Comr, Shedrack Agediga, ward 11.

However, it was further observed that few of the ward leaders whose names appeared above who was unable to make it rather sent representatives to receive the cash on their behalf. 

When quizzed if the council in collaboration with the Delta State Government have any plan to work out modalities to prevent or control the perennial flooding of these communities, Angele said the flood is a natural disaster hence is beyond the capacity of council and even state Government to do anything, stressing that it is more of federal government arrangement that can do something. 

The Burutu Local Government Chairman, popularly known as ‘Ability’ had called on the Federal Government of Nigeria to as a matter of urgency begin the process of dredging the River Niger for it to be deep enough to consume the water that is coming from the opening of dams in neighbouring countries resulting to the perennial flooding in most Niger Delta communities. 

Hon. Godknows noted that himself and his colleagues have also called on relevant federal agencies in the country to come to their rescue, adding that the entire Local Government has been completely submerged by the flood. 

He continued that a federal team is already on their way to access the negative impact of the flood in the affected Local Government Areas, stressing that the team was at Bomadi hence Burutu Local Government Council will be receiving them within the week. 

Speaking in similar manner, the duo of Mr. Fungewei Azami and Pst. Godwin Edumogiren SSAs to the Governor who received the cash on behalf of their various  wards particularly appreciated Governor Okowa for reaching out to the flood victims, adding that posterity will always judge him right. 

Azami and Godwin also lauded the prudent management of resources by the council Chairman, Hon. Angele, adding that for adding cash to augment what the state Government brought and his open door policy is no doubt a demonstration of uncommon leadership, maintaining that the people of Burutu are very proud of him, the statement adds.
