As a Lifestyle blogger I was not allowed to be an orobo in peace as the comments I got were unpleasant, add hormones into the matter, it was not an easy time.

YOU WILL BE MORE CAREFUL ABOUT WHAT YOU EAT AFTER READING THIS

Iron is more essential to our bodies than you think! 

When I wrote the last article about iron deficiency (click here to find it), honestly, I hadn’t thought it would be so much of a big deal. I had only responded to a cause I felt obliged to be a part of, being a woman myself.

WHERE ARE THE 3.5 MILLION NIGERIANS INFECTED WITH HIV/AIDS? BY DIMOSTHENIS SAKELLARIDIS

The intention of the title is not to scare or stigmatize any reader but to generate an intelligent discussion about the scourge of HIV/AIDS in Nigeria. In a country of 189 million people, 3.5 million may seem like an insignificant number. However, I know of some countries with population’s less than 3.5 million people and I cannot imagine what the future of such a country would look like if all their citizens were infected with HIV/AIDS. The picture of such an imagination would be a monumental tragedy of devastating proportions! Horrendous statistics in Nigeria pegs the HIV/AIDS infected population at 3.5 million and either way you look at it, it is no mean figure.
