Gawon said it decades ago, Again Northern youths say, "Nigeria must be one" - see how a crowd of Nothern youths in Kano wore on Igbo attires and chanted songs of unity and peace together with some peaceful Ibos.


 

This is  more or less to a stark contrast with conventional expectation, looking at the past years when Kano and other parts of Northern Nigeria where retaliatory attacks were carried out when ethnic clashes happened in the South East.

The group of these peaceful paraders were predominantly young teeming ‘primitive’ "almajiris" who are often the first suspects when an uprising happens.

According to news reports, it was a move by the Coalition of Northern Groups after answering the call of the Northern States Governors to maintain peaceful relations in spite of the tension occasioned by the standoff between IPOB and the Nigerian Army in Abia State.

Thinking from the past,  you wouldn't be able to really join the dots here...when ever there's uprising situation in east; Easthernans inhating in the North know exactly what to expect; and vice-verser...But this time is strange,  and sure! whatsover might have fueled such non-reciprocal reaction is indeed! Thoughful and "positive"... I think that Nigeria is growing pass her diference and intolerance. She refuses to give room, this time, for mockery from the world around...Bravo!

 

Breaking news: The nigerian Army troops are already withrawing from Abia (lately), after her recent "bloody"clash with the Biafran agitators, following an emergency order.

...fret and tension  have been a streaming flux in Abia State, following the bloody clash be­tween the Nigerian  military troops and  the Biafra agitators...lately, this face-off is coming to an end today.This is because the Nige­rian Army is set to begin the withdrawal of troops whose presence had sparked off a chain of reactions and tragic consequences.Following moves between the Federal and state authori­ties to restore calm to the state, Governor Okezie Ikpeazu an­nounced that the Army will today begin the gradual with­drawal of troops from the state.Ikpeazu also said that he would meet with President Muhammadu Buhari over the possibility of relaxing the ongo­ ing Operation Python Dance II in the state.He told journalists yester­day in Umuahia that the soldiers’ withdrawal from the streets of Aba and Umuahia will begin today.The governor, who expressed concern over the frenzied security situation in the state, warned mis­creants against actions capable of worsening the situation.Ikpeazu said that the securi­ty situation in the past few days, which led to the deployment of soldiers in the state ahead of the “Operation Python Dance II”, had become of great concern to both the government and the citizenry.He said: “After several inter­ventions, I want to inform you that by tomorrow (today) morn­ing, there will be withdrawal of soldiers from the streets at Aba and Umuahia, apart from the pre-existing military checkpoints at various locations in the state.“With the expected exit of soldiers from the streets, we must warn that we will not tolerate ag­itators and protesters taking over the streets for any reason at all.“I will also be meeting the President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, Presi­dent Muhammadu Buhari, to dis­cuss possible ways of relaxing the ‘Operation Python Dance II’ in the state for now.“Our attention has been drawn to ugly attacks on police stations and military posts at Aba and Umuahia and we hereby warn that we will no longer tolerate that, and all other acts that are capable of causing insecurity in the state.“We have also observed illegal acts of throwing petrol bombs and setting up of bonfires to obstruct free movements along some roads by suspected miscreants and wish to warn that such acts should stop forthwith.“To mischief-makers who want to use Abia as their base, let me announce to you that hence­forth, Abia will be too hot for you to carry out your wicked acts as the government will work with security agents to ensure the pro­tection of life and property in the state without fear or favour. There will be no hiding place for you,” he said.Also, yesterday, Col. Sagir Musa of the 82 Division Nigeria Army, said the military was in­vestigating a video to establish its source and authenticity of the al­leged torture of civilians by troops.Musa, in a press statement, said the trending video could be pre-recorded by IPOB members as a propaganda machinery to tar­nish the image of the Army. He said that the army would respect the rules of engagement.Tension has continued to build across the state as a result of the ugly developments.Some irate residents were said to have burnt down the Ariaria Police Station.The state command Police Public Relations Officer, Mr. Geoffrey Ogbonna, confirmed the incident.Meanwhile, the relative peace which returned to Abia State on Thursday morning was shattered when soldiers report­edly invaded the home of the leader of the Indigenous Peoples of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnam­di Kanu.Four people were allegedly killed during the incident which occurred at 6.30pm.A family source confirmed last night that soldiers, who have surrounded Kanu’s home since Tuesday, finally broke into the compound at Afaraukwu, Umua­hia.It was gathered that scores of IPOB members who formed human shield around the home were wounded while about 15 others were whisked away by the soldiers.The whereabouts of Kanu could not be established at the time of filing this report last night.One of Kanu’s siblings, popu­larly known as Fineboy, told The AUTHORITY that their father’s throne was desecrated by the troops who ransacked the palace and carted away his plaques.He said: “They broke into the palace after heavy shoot­ing and turned the throne up­side down. They killed four peo­ple and wounded so many others before arresting 15 persons. You can come and take pictures of how they scattered the whole pal­ace,” he said.Kanu’s whereabouts was still unclear as Fineboy could not con­firm whether or not the IPOB leader was among those taken away by the invading soldiers.When contacted, the Army Spokesperson, 14 Brigade Oha­fia, Major Gbadamosi Oyegoke, said that he was not in a position to comment on the incident and asked newsmen to direct their inquiries to dedicated lines of “Operation Python Dance 11.”All the calls put to the dedi­cated numbers failed.Similarly, the Deputy Di­rector, Army Public Relations, 82 Division Enugu, Col. Sagir Musa, did not pick calls put to his cell phone.As the shooting raged, res­idents of the area fled the scene. One of the residents said that he had fled with his family to his vil­lage at Isuikwuato.Earlier in the day, two per­sons believed to be IPOB mem­bers were reportedly shot dead by suspected solders.The incident occurred around 9:30am near the Zenith Bank Plc branch opposite the Government House, Umuahia.A customer at the bank’s Au­tomated Teller Machine (ATM) was hit by bullets and rushed to the Emergency Unit of the Feder­al Medical Centre (FMC), Umua­hia.An eyewitness claimed that gun-toting soldiers, on sighting the two IPOB members dressed in black attires and trekking down the Bank Road towards their lead­er’s house, opened fire on them.As soon as they fell, the sol­ders carried away their corps­es into their waiting van and zoomed off, he said.At the scene, a black cap be­longing to one of the victims was seen on the ground.The situation forced banks along the area to quickly close shop as people scampered for safety.Similarly, business owners in the state capital immediately shut down for the day while residents rushed back to their homes. The roads and major streets were de­serted shortly.Court remands 32 IPOB members in prison custodyAlso, yesterday, a Chief Mag­istrate Court in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, remanded in pris­on custody 32 members of IPOB who were arrested by the Police during Tuesday’s violent attack in Oyigbo Local Government Area.Nine of the accused persons were arrested for alleged killing a Police Sergeant, Steven Daniel, on Wednesday morning.The accused were charged with treason, murder, armed robbery, felony, unlawful assem­bly, unlawful protest and oth­er sundry crimes in suit num­bers PMC/1936C/2017 and PMC/1935C/2017.The charges were not read to the accused persons and pleas were also not taken when the matter came up because the court lacked jurisdiction to en­tertain the case.The counsel to the accused asked the court to return the case file to the Chief Judge of the State High Court to assign the matter to the appropriate court.In his ruling, the Presiding Chief Magistrate, Amadi O. Amadi-Nna, declined jurisdic­tion on the matter and ordered the court registrar to remit the case file to the Director of Pub­lic Prosecution for legal advice and  adjourned the case...

(Note: it's most especially written for you if you still struggle in this sexual habit and seek to know the whole truth - the hometruth:)
 ~~~(the content below is slightly adopted from 'the punch news paper')~~~
 The naked truth about "masturbation". 

Apart from penetrative sex between heterosexual beings, it is no longer hidden that people have devised several other means to satisfy themselves sexually , and prominent among them is masturbation . What is masturbation? well. ok. It simply the act of sex performed by only one person, it's the sexual stimulation of one ’s own genitals for sexual pleasure, which, of course, is usually done in the secret , and is common especially among youths, practised also by alot of adults - both singles and married . While people perceive men to be guiltier of this act , findings have shown that women indu lge in it as well, more so with the use of sex toys . According to Kinsey Institute , an organisation that promotes interdisciplinary research and scholarship in the field of human sexuality and related aspects of gender, relationship and reproduction , about 92 per cent of men and 62 per cent of women engage in masturbation in their lifetime. A study by Christin Bowman of the Department of Social - Personality Psychology, University of New York, United States, found that women’s reasons for masturbating could be any of sexual pleasure, to learn about or better understand their bodies, as a release , to substitute for sex from their partner and general sexual dissatisfaction . He found that even though women’s feelings when they masturbate could lead to shame or fear that they are acting selfishly , mainly, most women feel sexually empowered when they do it. The question as to whether this act is good for the human system or not has been tossed back and forth, without a unanimous outcome . While some experts say it is good for the body , some others say its side effect is best described as detrimental . However, findings have shown that beyond the instant pleasure such people claim to derive from the act , there are some ugly sides to it that may hunt such persons later in life . It was also found that the inadequate understanding of how strongly addictive masturbation is, coupled with its affordability , makes people see it as an option . But according to Medical Daily , an organisation renowned for health and science issues , masturbation , which is highly addictive, could lead to fatigue, memory loss , hair loss, blurred vision, pains in the penis and impaired sexual function like erectile dysfunction, low sex drive and premature ejaculation . Notably , it is not the act itself that causes some of these effects; they are a product of the overproduction of sex hormones and neurotransmitters occasioned by frequent masturbation . In other words, masturbation tends to be excessive because it is accessible and cheap to practise , thus, when people engage in too much of it, sex hormones are over -secreted in the system, which results in these negative effects like hair loss, blurred vision and acne, among others. It added that because it is an act that is generally deemed unacceptable or one that falls below acceptable standard , it could cause low self esteem. It said, “ Masturbation can also lead to sexual exhaustion , which is exhibited in the form of impotence or erectile dysfunction – weak erection. And just like any other obsessive compulsive, such as alcohol abuse or gambling , extreme masturbating can interfere with an individual ’s personal relationship and professional life . “The National Health Service , which is the largest publicly funded health care system in the world , suggests that taking a break from the act may serve as a good thing. ” That’ s not all. Excessive masturbation, like doing it daily , has been found to cause seminal leakage, in which case , semen would be leaking or flowing out freely from the penis. This is usually caused by the weakening of the parasympathetic nerves because the ejaculatory valve that opens and closes during sex stays open for a longer time. Thus, it is not uncommon for people who masturbate to see some stains on their inner wear, especially moments after doing it, and if personal hygiene is inadequate , it has been found to cause odour in that region . It could also deplete the amount of semen in their seminal vesicle. Other reports revealed that masturbation ruins the sex life of those who indulge in it, leads to premature ejaculation because it tends to make sex uninteresting and difficult. For women who masturbate, it was also revealed that orgasm gives women an incentive to have more sex, and since most women do not reach orgasm through penile penetration, some resort to masturbation since it is self pleasing and then they become addicted to it. According to some experts , the pleasure of masturbation does not last for a long time , unlike that of actual sex, thus , people who do it, having been used to it, tend to keep doing it till it impairs their ability to derive maximum pleasure during sexual intercourse. In the same vein , the act has been found to reduce the sensitivity on the penis due to the constant rubbing all in a bid to reach orgasm. Like sexual intercourse , it has been found that masturbation tends to make people weak and fall asleep, because when they ejaculate (for men) or reach orgasm (for women), their system releases a number of brain chemicals including oxytocin, norepinephrine , serotonin , vasopressin and prolactin, all of which cause them to feel relaxed and sleepy. The effect is said to be more profound in men. It is also interesting to know that beyond these identified effects, masturbation could on the long run cause men to have acne, because male arousal results in the surge of male hormones , the same hormones that are also known to be responsible for the formation of acne. In his view, a medical practitioner, Dr. Rotimi Adesanya, affirms that there is a negative side to masturbation. He explained that since it is not an act that is acceptable in the environment and most of those who do it do so secretly, those who masturbate tend to suffer from low self esteem because it is not something they might be proud of . He noted that apart from the fact that it could lead to memory loss, the pleasure derivable from masturbation does not last for a long time, unlike that of sex, hence , it could be a mere waste of time . “ In fact, in some cultures , it is seen as a psychological issue ,” he added. He continued, “On the long run, masturbation may reduce sperm count, and that is why men who want to make their wife pregnant should not engage in masturbation , because when they ejaculate during the act , it would reduce their sperm count during actual intercourse. That is in addition to the fact that men who engage in it could have erectile dysfunction, because if the man has satisfied himself earlier , when it is time to meet the wife, he may not have erection. “It also creates dissatisfaction between the man and the woman . If one of the parties masturbates , because of the initial pleasure, the person could climax on time, leaving the partner unsatisfied . Also , it can make them feel drowsy; they tend to get tired easily. So it is not advisable . ”
Adesanya advised that people who do it should seek medical counsel . “The truth is that you don ’t see people going to the hospital to seek medical help about it, but basically it can be treated with psychotherapy . Clinical psychology is involved most times and if the case is bad , a psychiatrist could be involved ,” he added. In the view of a psychologist, Prof. Oni Fagboungbe , people engage in masturbation for different reasons; including pleasure or because it has become a compulsive disorder in their system. “It is not something one should do and persistent engagement in it could cause low self esteem ,” he said.
