Really, What’s the Point of Cheating?

Cheating is something I have never really been able to understand, like why do people cheat? Am I the only one that thinks it’s a lot of work?! Nowadays it’s like, cheating is not as big of a deal anymore, I mean, it’s so bad that having a side chick or a side bobo is like a fashion trend! You could catch your partner cheating on you and when he gets a chance to explain he says “she’s just a side chick, you know you’re my main girl” like, wait, is that supposed to make me feel better or..?

Why do people cheat?? I ask this question a lot but I have never really gotten a satisfactory answer. We all know the common reasons behind cheating is lack of romance or proper communication, most times Men and Women cheat because they are not happy in their relationships. Communication is the key to a healthy relationship, so even if you’re as proud as Kanye west you have to put that away and talk about your problems.

But then what about the ones that are happy in their relationships but cheat anyway? Most of the time, if not all the time, the reason behind that is Self-gratification. I mean, as humans we all have a natural desire to satisfy our needs but then we also have a natural desire for intimacy, and unfortunately these two needs often seem to be in conflict with each other, but then the reality is, if you really love someone you will be willing to sacrifice your own self-gratification to remain faithful, because the truth is if you’re really in love you would put in effort to NOT mess up.
Definitely there will be temptations, some women are just mean! But if you really loved your partner and a woman with a face like Meagan Good and a body like Beyoncé or a man with eyes like Michael Ealy and a body like Trey Songz tried to seduce you, you wouldn’t fall for it, you might have to put up a pretty good fight but believe it or not that’s what love can do to you. Therefore, there is really never a good reason to cheat, unless of course you’re dating a crazy person like Eminem who has the whole ‘if I cant have you no one else can’ mentality, but then that’s highly unlikely!
So if you’re in a relationship and you’re not happy then end it, if you think cheating on your partner is better than breaking up and hurting their feelings you are very wrong, because either way they are going to get hurt. And if you feel there’s no problem with your relationship but you’re still cheating anyway then you’re just not in love and you have no business being in a relationship, if you were really in love you wouldn’t cheat, because if you love something you don’t just let it go.

D’banj Gets Emotional, Announces Koko Garri Competition

D’Banj is widening his brand outside music, the
Kokomaster planned to launch a number of products
under his Koko brand name at some point but he
seemed to cool the pace when fans were looking out for
the products.
However, D’Banj is ready to break new grounds with his
Koko garri brand a product known to many. The singer
made his seriousness about promoting the brand known in
an emotional piece on Instagram.

He slammed Nigerians for placing much attention of
imported products and failed to support their own insisting
many of the products we embrace and cherish in the
country are foreign products.
He then hinted that, he will kick off a Kokogarri competition
where the winner will have a chance to represent the brand
and get a start up capital for the Koko garri business.



He wrote;
Guys, KokoGarri is available on Konga & in Ebeano Stores!
Who owns Ciroc vodka? Who owns Beats headphones? Who
own RocknRepublic? The list goes on. What we do in Nigeria
is to laugh at people’s hustle. And when it starts paying,
creating jobs and moving the person to the next level, we
are quick to ask why is the person living so large? Does he
know how many people are hustling and going to bed
hungry? But we don’t consider the person’s hustle in the
beginning worthy of support. I am a strong Supporter of
Nigerian Brands. How many politicians bought this Koko
Garri to give their supporters? But they gave imported rice
abi? When Otunba Ghadaffi started his mobile toilets,
people called him “Agbe po!!!” It wasn’t for long, others
joined DMT to do what he was laughed at. I know that a few
think what’s DBanj thinking to invest in Garri. Newsflash!!!! I
bet you all that is a $30b market. KOKOGARRI to be
promoted & distributed in hotels and restaurants. Wherever
beans and moi-moi is served, there should be packs of Koko
Garri as options to pap, dodo and yam. Trust me, you will
see how it will grow. I think there should be a Garri soaking
competition sef. The hamburger competitions we see on
television don’t even have as much entertainment value…
-Round 1, Koko Garri and groundnuts,
-Round 2, Koko Garri and coconut,

What Buhari Plans To Implement In Africa

Dr. Ogbonnaya Onu, a chieftain of the All Progressives
Congress (APC), has revealed one of President
Muhammadu Buhari’s prime agenda.
Speaking while receiving an award from African Students’
Union Parliament (ASUP) at Abuja, Onu said that President
Buhari is committed to ensuring that Africa remains the
centre peace of Nigeria’s foreign policy.
According to Onu, the dream of Africa peace is possible
when all countries join hands to work for the development
of the continent, with the notion that peace is attainable.

Onu said: “I want to assure you that this present
administration in Nigeria came because of the collective
desire of Nigerians for change. We were in the opposition
for 16 years and Nigerians did not like the way the country
was moving.

“And that is why many of us who were in opposition stayed
there to make sure we effect the change in a democratic
manner. And the administration we have now-the
Muhammadu Buhari’s administration is committed to
making sure that Africa remains the centre peace of
Nigeria’s foreign policy.
“We have the largest population in Africa and largest
economy on the continent. Thus we have a lot of
responsibility to help engineer the new direction, the
direction of growth, the direction of development and other
peaceful condition throughout Africa.”
Meanwhile, President Buhari, has said that only united work
between Nigeria and neighouring countries will help to
defeat Boko Haram terrorists in the North-Eastern part of
Nigeria..

Taliban Leader Mullah Omar Is Dead

On Wednesday the Afghani government finally
confirmed the rumors that Mullah Omar, the leader of
Taliban, is dead.
The Afghani president’s spokesman stated: “The government
of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan, based on credible
information, confirms that Mullah Mohammad Omar, leader
of the Taliban died in April 2013 in Pakistan. The
government of Afghanistan believes that grounds for the
Afghan peace talks are more paved now than before, and
thus calls on all armed opposition groups to seize the
opportunity and join the peace process.”
It was also noted that Omar had died more than two years
before.
A spokesman for the National Directorate of Security Abdul
Hassib Seddiqi said that terrorist died of natural causes in a
hospital in Karachi, Pakistan.
The source states that only a handful of senior members of
the Taliban’s ruling “Quetta Shura” knew about Omar’s
demise, but the rumor has been widespread even among
members of the Islamic extremist group and has cropped up
repeatedly in local media reports.
CBS News notes that Omar was an ethnic Pashtun, like the
vast majority of his Taliban followers, from the Hotak tribe,
and was generally believed to have been born in the late
1950s near Kandahar. It also marks that he was part of the
U.S.-backed “mujahedeen” movement that ousted the
Soviets from Afghanistan in the 1980s, and it was during that
fighting that he lost his eye..

Effective pricing strategies for business success

One of the secrets to business
success is knowing how to set
the best prices for your
products. If you set your
prices too high, you may scare
away customers and favour
your competition. If your
prices are too low, you may be
losing profits and running your business at a loss.
The best price for your product or service is one that is low
enough to attract customers but high enough to make you a
good profit.
Can entrepreneurs set prices that attract customers and
guarantees good profits? It is possible, but you’ll have to
know the strategies to apply and in what markets to apply
them.

-Value to customers;
One of the most effective strategies you can use is to price
your product based on value. The value of a product means
different things to different people. The more value a person
places on a product or service, the higher the price they’re
likely to pay for it. You may not be willing to pay N1,000 for
a bottle of water, because there is water everywhere around
you. But if you’re lost in the middle of the Sahara desert with
no water to drink for five days, if somebody shows up with a
bottle of water and offered to sell it at N2,000, you will most
likely go for it.
This clearly shows how consumers react to price when the
product holds a lot of value for them. This value could be
based on several factors such as emotions, survival, greed,
scarcity, status etc. The higher the value customers place in
your product or service, the higher the price they’re likely to
pay. It’s a natural law and a fact of human behaviour.

-Know your customer;
Analyse your market and study your potential customers
when you’re setting prices for your products or services. You
can set any prices you want, but if your target customers
cannot afford it, your business won’t sell anything. By
studying your target customers’ behaviour, likes, dislikes,
preferences, tastes, lifestyle, income levels etc, you will gain
a lot of insight that will help you to set the right prices for
your products or services.
There are three main types of customer groups you should
always consider when youfre setting prices. Price-sensitive
customers – price is the most important factor that affects
their buying decision. Convenience-centered consumers –
Those who value convenience more than everything else.
Quality-conscious customers – They will pay anything to get
the best quality of a product or service. The more you know
about your target customers, the better you can set a price
that will appeal to them. Putting your customer first is a
strategy that always works.

-Cover your costs;
To survive and succeed in business, you need to make
profit. Profit means that youfre selling your products or
services at a price that is higher than the amount it cost you
to make the product or deliver the service. Before you set a
price for your product, you need to be very sure that it
covers your costs and will make you a profit.
Apart from the cost of making a product, you also need to
know how many products you need to sell in order to turn a
profit. Many entrepreneurs just set a price that looks good
without first checking if the price covers their costs and will
be profitable. If you set a price that favours your customers,
but is bad for your business, it will only be a matter of time
before you won’t have a business anymore. You must
consider your direct and indirect costs. If your cost is more
than your price, it’ll only be a matter of time before you run
out of business.

-Competition;
Everybody who does business knows that price is one of the
effective ways of attracting customers to your product or
service. This is why you need to always consider the pricing
of your competitors. Consumers are smart; they always want
a fair price, and will always compare your price against your
competition. If a competitor’s product is cheaper and there’s
no major difference in the value of the products, you could
lose customers to your competition.
Business is a race. You need to constantly make sure that
your product or service is competitively priced, especially if
your products and services are similar to those offered by
the competition.

-Demand;
More than 99 percent of consumers only buy products and
services they need or desire. But there are times when
people are ’forced’ to need and desire certain products and
services. In such periods, the demand for these products
and services skyrocket beyond the supply in the market.
When such events occur, it’s usually an opportunity to raise
prices.
For example, during festive seasons like Christmas, New
Year and other religious and national celebrations, the
demand for food products automatically increases. Because
more people than usual will want to buy foods like rice,
chicken, drinks etc. to celebrate with their families. Also,
before the Ebola outbreak in West Africa, not many people
knew about or had used a ‘hand sanitizer’ before.
The demand and price of this gel, which is usually applied
on the hands to kill germs, skyrocketed. The huge
unprecedented demand for this product made it a highly-
priced product overnight. To get the best price for product
or service, it’s always a good strategy to target periods of
high market demand.
By targeting times of scarcity or excess demand, you could
increase your pricing as a strategy to make more profits.
These opportunities are not available throughout the year so
it makes perfect sense to exploit it the most you can.

Getting through a breakup

• Sweetheart, whether the relationship was great or not,whether it lasted for 5weeks or 5years, a breakup can leave you feeling lost, broken and betrayed. It can trigger pains, heartaches and unsettling feelings. It can leave you sick and your world upside down (oh yes!).

A healthy coping mechanism is essential to getting over the ‘ex fever’. Even if the relationship was a mess, a breakup will drop you at a ‘Zero level’- you have to pick yourself up, you have to let go of the feeling of abandonment, disappointment and betrayal. Don’t let anything tie you down.

These tips will help you heal and mend your broken heart.

TALK OR WRITE OUT YOUR FEELING

You have lots of feelings are all jammed up inside you, so you have to let it all out. Talk to your friends, family, maybe a therapist, this will make you feel better. You can also keep a journal, there are so many emotions involved in a breakup and if you keep them bottled up it can hurt you, write how and what you are feeling.

GIVE YOURSELF A BREAK

Take a break from everything that stress your mind, you need your ‘you time’ gather your strength since you are not ‘superwoman’ heal every part of you, take time to regroup, re-energize, and re-boost because you will need to get back out there you know? *winks*.

GRIEF

Know that its OK to cry, allow yourself mourn the loss of a relationship, after all you are a woman. Don’t be in denial, admit that you are hurt, cry, get angry. But its just for a little while.

TAKE CARE OF YOUR BODY

After a breakup all you want to do is cry and eat, when you start eating bad, your diet gets worse and you gain unwanted pounds, so do not take refuge in bad foods, eat good food and healthy diet. Avoid mindless eat, exercise and rest.

GET INTO ACTIVITIES YOU LOVE AND BE POSITIVE

Give yourself a reason to want to get up every morning, have a reason to want to move on, do the stuffs you enjoy or love, like Running, Strolling, Travelling, Shopping. Just get out there again.

TAKE YOUR TIME

Remember not rush into another relationship just because you are lonely and he is available.

Nobody said its going to be easy, but you will heal.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

Big Brother Africa 2015 Is Cancelled!

   This is not good news for African viewers of the biggest
reality TV show in Africa, Big Brother Africa (BBA) as it
may not take place this year as expected.
This is due to lack of sponsorship. The organizers of the
show, Africa Magic and Endemol are unable to get
sponsorship for this year’s edition of the show.
The Manager of Multichoice Ghana, Anne Sackey confirmed
to Razz Newspaper that they at Multichoice Ghana have
received notice from MNET that this year’s edition of Big
Brother Africa will not come off.
She explained that MNET did not give them any reasons as
to why they will not be airing the Big Brother this year, but
she suggested it could be due to sponsorship constraints.

“They didn’t give us any reason though, but I think it’s
mainly because of cash constraints as we all know the show
is very expensive to put up” she said.
Anne Sackey said since the organizers don’t have a constant
annual headline sponsor (s) for the show, it becomes
difficult sometimes getting sponsors.
“They don’t have fix sponsors on the show. Every year the
sponsor changes, sometimes it’s Coca¬Cola, sometimes MTN
and other companies from Ghana have sponsored before”
she noted.

Idris Sultan, 2014 BBA Winner
On further interrogation to shed more light on whether their
inability to get a sponsor is a publicity stunt or not, she
stated that MNET is a separate company and that they have
their target and strategies so until they write to them, she
can’t answer any more questions on their behalf.
Tanzania’s Idris Sultan emerged the winner of the 2014 Big
Brother Hotshots and he went home with the star prize of
USD300, 000 while Akintayo Faniran, a Nigerian model
emerged the first runner up..

Financial Crisis Hits MTN Project Fame

The yearly MTN sponsored Project Fame West Africa
music competition has been hit with financial crisis,
Biggieblog.com can authoritatively reveal.
The prestigious competition, which is at the final stage of its
season eight audition, has been battling the financial mess
for not less than five consecutive seasons now, and the
situation is apparently getting messier.
Biggieblog.com gathered that Ultima Limited, the producers of the
competition, have been having serious challenges with MTN,
the sole sponsors of the talent hunt competition since 2010
when South Africa hosted the FIFA world cup soccer
competition.

After South Africa hosted the world cup, which was
sponsored by MTN, the telecommunication company has
been reluctant to fulfil its financial commitments to Project
Fame. And even when such obligations are met, they rarely
come as at when due.
Naij.com correspondent gathered that on several occasions,
Ultima Limited has been left with no option than to continue
running the competition from their personal purse till MTN
eventually redeems their pledge.

Apart“It hasn’t been a sweet experience for Ultima before
they are facing hard times from MTN. In fact, certain things
will change on this year’s Project Fame in a bid to cut cost.
They are looking into every area to ensure that the financial
cost of organising the competition this year is limited ,”

Facts About Cause of Cancer Death In Nigeria

The Committee Encouraging Corporate Philanthropy
(CECP-Nigeria), a non-governmental organisation has
described liver cancer as the second leading cause of
cancer deaths in Nigeria.
This is contained in a statement by Dr Abia Nzelu, executive
secretary, CECP, released on Monday in Abuja to
commemorate the 2015 World Hepatitis Day coming up
today.
Nzelu said Infection with hepatitis B (HBV) and C ( HCV) is
the main cause of liver cancer with viral Hepatitis causing 80
per cent of liver cancer deaths.

”In Nigeria, liver cancer is the second leading cause of
cancer death, accounting for over 11,000 deaths yearly and
32 deaths every day.

The leading cause of liver cancer is cirrhosis, damage of liver
cells and replacement with scar tissue, due to either HBV,
HCV, or chronic alcoholism.
”In 2013, about 300,000 deaths recorded from liver cancer
were due to hepatitis B, 343,000 to hepatitis C and 92,000 to
alcohol.’’

Nzelu said that liver cancer was rare in children and
teenagers noting that liver cancer was more common in
men with a male to female ratio of about two to one.
According to her, the average age of occurrence in Nigeria is
about 46 years as compared to the developed world where
the average age of occurrence is the mid 60s.
In the statement, Nzelu said that viral hepatitis was
inflammation of the liver caused by a group of virus known
as hepatitis A, B, C, D, and E.

”The liver is the largest internal organ, an indispensible
organ with several important functions including break
down and storage of many of the nutrients absorbed from
the intestine.
”It also helps in the production of most of the clotting factors
that prevent excessive bleeding from cuts or injuries;
release of bile into the intestines to help absorb nutrients.
”It also functions in the removal of harmful substances from
the blood,”she said.

According to her, viral hepatitis, which is one of the most
communicable diseases in the world, is spread through
contaminated blood, intravenous drug abuse and sexual
contact with an infected person.
She explained that in highly endemic areas like sub-Saharan
Africa and Asia, hepatitis B is most commonly spread from
mother to child at birth (perinatal transmission).
She said infection can occur during medical, surgical and
dental procedures, tattooing, or through the use of razors
and similar objects that are contaminated with infected
blood.
Nzelu said that the survival rate from liver cancer was poor
because liver cancer progressed rapidly and treatment
options were limited, thus, prevention was the key to
reducing liver cancer deaths.
”One of the most successful ways of preventing liver cancer
is by vaccination against hepatitis B; this vaccine has been
available since 1982 and the first dose is now being given at
birth.
”The vaccine is safe and effective, protecting people from
HBV infection for life and the development of chronic
disease and liver cancer due to HBV; vaccination for HCV is
currently unavailable.
”However, antiviral medicines can cure HCV infection with
other ways of preventing it including limiting transmission of
viruses by avoiding sharing of needles and other items such
as toothbrushes, razors or nail scissors.’’
The statement also identified avoiding getting tattoos or
body piercings from unlicensed facilities and screening of
blood donation products as ways of getting hepatitis.
Safer sex practices, including minimising the number of
partners and using barrier protective measures such as
condoms, could also protect against the transmission.

According to her, reducing alcohol abuse, obesity, and
diabetes will also reduce rates of liver cancer and treatment
with drugs, including oral antiviral agents can decrease the
risk of liver cancer.
She emphasised that screening and early diagnosis could
prevent health problems that could result from viral
hepatitis infection and prevent transmission of the virus..

7 Signs she’s after your Money

Everybody wants to love and be loved but the truth is, we can’t always get what we want. The journey to finding true love and happiness is not always as smooth as expected. Men are visually influenced when it comes to relationship and tend to be attracted to beauty. Unlucky for you if you meet non genuine women in sheep clothing that only want to rip you off and say “goodbye”. Well, you can’t always avoid such ladies but I can give you 7 signs to know if she’s only after your money. Enjoy!

She very demanding

Every man wants his woman to be happy and satisfied but if you’ve got a girl with high taste then you’re in trouble. She’s the type of girl that will always ask for one thing or the other, complain about not having enough and always wants to go to expensive places, travel and buy expensive things. A girl who’s genuinely in love with you would rather be considerate about how you spend your money and how best to cut down cost.

She’s materialistic and expensive

Its all about expensive things, designer bags, shoes and gadgets. She tells you about the latest thing in town and how all her friends have got it but she feels left out. Obviously she wants you to buy it for her! Materialistic girls are shallow girls who are only there during the good times. Their basis for a relationship is money and to be with them you’ve got to have a big pocket. Some men actually go for them just to conquer them and show them off as trophies. If you’re looking for “love” then a materialistic girl is not for you.

Less concerned about your family

If your girl is not concerned about your family or doesn’t ask after them but she’s more concerned about your work and salary then you should double check. She really doesn’t want to be emotionally attached because she doesn’t plan on being there in the long run. She’s not planning or thinking about a future with you, its more about now and what she can get. If you’re in a relationship with a girl with similar traits then ensure you guys are both on the same page and she wants a future with you.

She’s not sacrificial

These types of girls are not ready to compromise or make sacrifices for you. You realize that you can’t tell her “No” even in difficult times for the fear of loosing her. Every time she asks you for something and you tell her about a challenge, she threatens to leave you. If you’ve gotten to that stage then know that she’s only after your pocket. Understanding and making sacrifices in a relationship is a sign of love and support from your partner but if they are not ready to make sacrifices then cut them off!

Always talking about her problems

Its from one problem to the other and one bill to the other. Women have ways of extorting money from men and that’s by cooking up stories. Her problems seem unending and because you love her, you do not want to let her down. Today she tells you her mother is sick, the next day its her creditor harassing her or one incredible story. Everyone has got problems but when you see she has made it a habit and she’s not independent, then that’s a sign.

Money and Sex become top priority

Money and sex, what a combo! While some men have established that as the basis of the relationship from the onset, others unknowingly enter one. You realize that all you both talk about is money and sex. There’s no depth in the relationship, no care, love, affection, and “communication”. All you both ever seem to talk about are shallow things(temporal things). Every night together becomes a night of negotiation and requests.

Interested in your bank account details

She wants to know everything! The bank(s) you use, account details, last transaction,  payday and who else you’re sending money to. That seems to be the only thing she remembers so that she can strategise on how to extort money from you. She gets upset or edgy whenever you tell her about a friend you want to lend some money to or helping out your family when in need. That’s because she feels after giving out money to people, you won’t be willing to give her enough money when she asks so she advices you against helping your friends.

15 Things NOT to Say/Do on your First Date

• Your first date is the biggest night, its your chance to make a permanent impression and trust me positive impressions are noticed and negative ones ruins a lot. You are likely to be nervous and just go on chattering or worse making a fool of yourself. To guide against this, here are tips on what you should never say or do on a first date.

1. PAST RELATIONSHIP DISASTERS

‘My ex wronged me, he hurt me so bad’ or ‘I am still very much in love with my ex’ Zip it! Don’t ever mention that on a first date or any date at that. Your ‘ex’ is in your past, there is a reason he/she is your ‘ex’ so let it stay in the past. Else he/she is going to think you wanna make them pay for what another person did.

2. YOUR DATE IS NOT A TV SCREEN

Don’t let him/her do all the talking while you just seat there and watch like it’s some reality show. You too should start a conversation, make jokes, make them laugh, most people easily fall in love with a person with a sense of humour.

3. DON’T BATH IN YOUR PERFUME(S)

You should smell nice, everyone love a nice fragrance but when you start smelling like 10 designer perfumes that’s so wrong. You don’t want your date to choke on his/her breath.

4. DON’T LOOK LIKE YOU JUST ROLLED OUT OF BED

Your natural look is one thing but looking like you can’t be bothered on a first date is definitely a deal breaker, the efforts you make to look good will not go un-noticed, don’t make your date think they are not worth the effort. Its a first date, so make it look like one.

5. ACTING LIKE SOME GODDESS WAITING TO BE WORSHIPED

You feel you are very beautiful/handsome, everyone feels that way about themselves but when you start acting like a trophy to be won on a first date… All the best oo!

6. GLANCING AT OTHER PEOPLE

You might think your date is not looking but trust me, first dates are for strict observation..LOL.

7. EATING HALF OF THE ORDER

If you can’t eat a full plate then order a half plate, don’t order for food and eat half leaving the other half for ‘who’? Men think its ‘hot’ when a woman un-apologetically enjoys a good meal and likewise.

8. LITTLE MISS PERFECT

Come off it! Be yourself, don’t speak from your nose, don’t laugh at everything he says even when its not funny, don’t be fake, he’ll know. You will just look like a freak.

9. DON’T EVER GET DRUNK ON A DATE

Its a date and not a drinking night. He might drop up at home just to make sure you are safe but no one want to get stuck with a drunk.

10. TELLING SECRETS

Don’t start ‘can I share my darkest secret with you’? On a first date, its really bad. At least let him/her prove trustworthy.

11. LIFE IS NOT THAT GREAT

Seriously? You don’t want your date thinking you don’t have your life together!

12. DO YOU INTEND TO MARRY ME?

Yeesh….are you kidding, he/she is going to feel like you are just meaning to trap him/her. Most people hate marriage talk,’ they are not ready until they are ready’ so don’t ever ask that on a first date.

13. HATE MY JOB TALK

Please keep all negativity to a minimal, no job talk, no one wants to be around a pessimist or a sadist. So please zip it!

14. BRINGING YOUR FRIEND(s)

This is not a Hang out its a ‘first’ date. Three is a crowd, so once you bring your friends then its called hanging out.

15. FINANCE/INCOME

Please keep that talk for your accountant, no one needs to know how rich or broke you or your family is, or how much you make except if they are out for your money. Remember that night is all about getting to know each other, what you enjoy, your belief, personality and stuff.
