NanosilverEbola
The U.S already warned that experimental drug Nanosilver is a pesticide...and now Nigerian Minister of Health, Prof. Onyebuchi Chukwu says the drug, developed by a Nigerian in diaspora, has failed health requirements and will not be used on Ebola patients in Nigeria.

Actress Tonto Dikeh and Toyin Lawani come at each other

Tonto DikehTonto Dikeh
It looks like former friends actress Tonto Dikeh and fashion stylist Toyin Lawani are no longer in good terms and they have taken to social media to subtly come at each other.

So here's what happened. Two weeks ago Tonto Dikeh posted a throwback photo of herself dressed in a sequin gold dress and gave styling credit to her stylist and friend, Swanky Jerry Ogbodo. Toyin Lawani saw that particular post yesterday and got mad because according to her, she was the one who styled Tonto and not Swanky. Toyin said she did the styling for a Complete fashion party a few years ago and even shared a pic of herself and Tonto in the gold dress.

Looks like Toyin threatened to sue anyone who took credit for her work, because Tonto later posted a pic on her instagram page with the message 'Do I look like I care?". Trust Tonto, she had a lot more to say.

Former Abia state Governor Uzor Kalu writes about his successor, Theodore Orji, calls him a chameleon

Uzor Kalu
In a piece titled "The Chameleon in Theodore Orji", former Abia state Governor, Orji Uzor Kalu bared his thoughts about his successor and one time friend, Theodore Orji, calling him a chameleon. In the no-holds-barred piece, Uzor Kalu spoke about how he made Theodore Orji a governor and how his former friend turned his back on him after he became governor. Find the piece he posted on his Facebook below...
"The first thing that would strike any person meeting Theodore Ahamefule Orji for the first time – 16 years ago – was his humble personality. I doubt if he still carries himself with the same simplicity and can­dour, for which I have known him, now he has tested power as governor. I say so, because power has a way of intoxicating some people, especially those who never dreamed of getting it. I must openly sub­mit that I was taken in by his facial ap­pearance, not knowing that deep inside he was a different person all together – a chameleon. Subsequent events have since proved me right."

Photo: Let's help save the life of Nigerian doctor who got infected by Patrick Sawyer

Ameyo Stella Adadevoh
Dr. Ameyo Stella Adadevoh (pictured above) is a Senior Consultant Physician and Endocrinologist at First Consultant Hospital in Lagos where late Liberian Patrick Sawyer was diagnosed with the deadly Ebola disease. She was one of those who diagnosed and was treating Sawyer at First Consultant before he died. Unfortunately she was infected by Sawyer.

Her colleagues put her pic and case out at a press conference on Thursday, appealing to the U.S Govt to urgently send whatever treatment they have for the Ebola virus to Nigeria to save her life and that of other Nigerians at risk of the disease.

According to her colleague Mr Okubadejo,
“She treated Sawyer because she was patriotic only for her to be infected with the virus. I am appealing to the U.S. government to send whatever medication they have to Nigeria fast to save Adadevoh. She does not deserve to die. So, this is the reason for this appeal,”
I heard Dr. Adadevoh was one of those who refused to let Sawyer leave the hospital when he attempted to leave while being treated. She probably saved many lives. God bless her and save her

Nigerians tricked into selling kidneys in Indian hospitals share horrible tales

kidneys
Nigerians who claim to have been tricked into selling their kidneys in Indian hospitals have shared horrific tales of their ordeal. In this exclusive sit down with Punch, Martin said he was tricked into selling one of his kidneys for just $7,500 (N1.2m) in 2008
Martins said he had only one reason why he was willing to sell one of his kidneys for that amount: financial independence.

He'd tried to make a meaning out of his life. While growing up, he had dreamt of becoming an engineer but his parents did not have the wherewithal to support his dream.

So when he was approached by his childhood friend, he did not think times over before accepting the offer. He would sell his kidney, his friend, who was also the agent, would make about $1,800 (N300,000), while he would pocket the balance — $5,600 (N900,000). He felt it was balanced Mathematics, but the complexity of the deal was none he could have imagined.
