EFCC fails to produce Lamido, sons at court

The Economic and Finance Crime Commission (EFCC) Wednesday failed to produce the immediate past Governor of Jigawa state, Alhaji Sule Lamido, his two sons, Aminu and Mustapha in court barely 24 hour after they were picked up in Abuja.
The Anti graffiti Agency had yesterday filed suit before a Federal High court, Kano accusing Lamido and his two sons of money laundering.
However, the EFCC legal Director, Achile Okoroma told reporters at the Federal High Court premises that Sule Lamido’s absence alongside his two sons was due to cancellation of flight from Abuja.
He assured that “baring any last minute change, Sule Lamido and his sons would be arranged Thursday”.

#HealthMonday: The challenge of lung cancer

The challenge of lung cancer November marks lung cancer awareness month. Lung cancer is a leading cause for cancer deaths in the world and is strongly correlated with smoking. Although the rates of lung cancer in sub-Saharan Africa is lower vs. the rest of the world, it is still important to discuss especially as the rates of tobacco use in Africa is on the rise - if the smoking rate continues to climb, dealing with tobacco-related illnesses such as lung cancer will become more common. Furthermore, secondhand smoke causes lung cancer in people who have never smoked themselves. Symptoms Lung cancer may not produce any noticeable symptoms in the early stages. In many people diagnosed with lung cancer, diagnosis is made after the disease has advanced. As many of these symptoms are general, many people don't suspect lung cancer.

Relationship: Watch Your Friends - Aidy Thomas

You need me, I need you is a life’s philosophy no one can dispute. Man was never created to be an Island: dependence and mutual existence has been a cord holding life and world together. Nations with nations, continents with others, the need to tap and learn from each other has grown the world to a global village. Opening doors for people of other races to live in your domain means you value what they’ve got and are ready to share yours with them too. A person who claims to be friends only with self will either be extremely poor or too frustrated to stay alive  —we need each other. People make you great; others make you feel great, even the high and mighty will not be so if there were no subordinates to stoke their ego. If there were no people to admire, jealous, celebrate and notice your progress, the motivation to achieve would be gone. Now, with this level of desire and need for someone to call a friend, you need to be extremely careful to choose who to share your precious
