Mohbad: US Laboratory Refuses to Perform Toxicity Test

Contrary to what the Lagos State government alleged, officials at the US National Medical Service Laboratories (NMS) in Pennsylvania have denied doing toxicity tests on the late Nigerian musician Ilerioluwa Promise Aloba, also known as Mohbad. The pathologist's assertion on May 15 that an autopsy on Mohbad's decomposing corpse was unable to determine the cause of his death prompted this disclosure from NMS. TIMBLOGGIST remembers that the African Foundation for Justice and African Television offered a N50 million reward to anyone with information about the murderers of 27-year-old Mohbad, who passed away inexplicably and sparked protests and controversy across the country. Esther Dede, a Client Services Associate at NMS's Forensic Divisions, said that the deceased singer's toxicity test was not carried out anyplace on the lab's grounds.

Nigerian government urges NLC, TUC leaders to be "considerate and patriotic in their demands

As the economy continues to recover from the devastating effects of the pandemic and other global economic shocks. Two weeks ago, the leadership of organized labor, which is made up of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and the Trade Union Congress (TUC), walked out on government representatives for offering Nigerian workers what they called a "paltry N48,000." The Nigerian government, cognizant of the fact that the country's economy is still recuperating from the catastrophic consequences of the epidemic and other worldwide economic shocks, has issued a plea to organized labor and other pertinent stakeholders to be "considerate and patriotic in their demands."

What Qualifies a Person as a True Man? What Is a Man? The Final Word

It is impossible to define true masculinity in a single article or book. It's something really intimate, one-of-a-kind, and indescribable. While mastery of self, body, wealth, and love are among the tenets of masculine development that all men must adhere to in order to be really Grounded, the road ahead is not always obvious. There is no clear path ahead of you on the path to becoming a Grounded Man. You have to forge this path on your own. a route you have to forge on your own and with other men's assistance. I'm going to put you to the test right now: tell me what the next phase of your growth is. Allow your worries to be your mentor. Set the ships ablaze. Go to the place in your life where you are most hurting—financially, romantically, or physically. Address the issues that are bothering you. Make a commitment to conquering your challenges at all costs. Refuse to let the lady on your arm, your bank account, or the size of your biceps define you. Make up

The Grounded Man: Real Men's Gender and Their Future

Everything is with The Grounded Man. He has provided a clear and elegant response to the query, "What is a man?" He is motivated by specific principles and a clear future vision. He is aware of his primordial energy, yet it does not rule him. Although he treats women equally, he refuses to let them control him or make fun of him. Despite having a large bank account, he does not identify himself by it. He skillfully strikes a balance between the responsibilities of manhood and the positive traits of the other men we've spoken about. While he is kind with the people he loves, he is strong and even "violent" in his pursuit of his ambitions. (Man of Industry/Man of Emotion) He views his wife as an equal but never under her control. (Excellent Man/Sophisticated Man) He is fiercely loyal but very perceptive. (Industrial Man/Sophisticated Man) He defends his family and behaves with duty, yet he rejects absurd doctrine and custom. (Excellent/Emotional) He

The Missing Man: The Real Men of the 1990s and Today: Where Have They Gone?

Men have lost their way during the last thirty years. They are no longer seen in society. Rather than being proud of their masculinity, they shame themselves in order to atone for the transgressions of the men who came before them. The Missing Man pretends to be overly preoccupied with his profession and avoids facing the harsh truth that he has no idea who the hell he is or what he wants out of life by hiding behind it. The origins of masculinity were lost on modern males. They frequently feel bad for being men in the first place and lack the maturity to accept responsibility. They lacked direction and role models, and as a result, they don't even know if there is such a thing as a "real man" or what it means to be a man. The "Missing Man," or contemporary man, has no idea who he is or what he desires. He is constantly being inundated with messages about who he "should" be, and he finds it nearly impossible to create his own identity due t

The Wonderful Man (1980s): Success in Business, Contentment in Marriage, and Personal Vacancy

The next generation saw the issues with eschewing traditional masculinity after the Emotional Man, and the pendulum swung the other way once more. The following generation of men, dubbed "Wonderful Men," gave the impression that they had it all. They became all a woman could wish for and more when they married the best of the Sophisticated Man and the Emotional Man. These men were workhorses who could create money at will and establish financial independence for their families. However, they put their family's prosperity ahead of their own egos, and faithfulness increased significantly. These guys have several qualities that a modern man would should be modeled after, but they also had flaws that prevented them from reaching the heights of brilliance. The Marvelous Man's Strengths It's true that the Wonderful Man was wonderful. He maintained the work ethic of earlier generations while tempering his ambition with a deep love and devotion to his family.

The Emotional Man (1960–1970s): Personal Calm, Unrestricted Love, and Weakness

The next generation, known as the "Emotional Man," capitalized on the worst error of the previous generation—adultery—and developed into experts at sensitive and expressive emotional expression. Upon witnessing the suffering inflicted by his father's generation, this man dedicated his life to mastering soft skills. Gaining the ability to connect, sense, listen, and care for others—especially women. Men in American history started to fiercely oppose the so-called "norm" for the first time. Rather than picking up guns and defending their nation, they questioned the rationale behind war and recognized politics as a political game. They labored assiduously to right the wrongs of the past and protested and battled against injustice and inequity. The Man's Emotional Power For freedom, The Emotional Man stood. He gave us advice on how to respect women as equals, question authority, and embrace our femininity. Men began to question their education and fo

The Sophisticated Man (1950s): Misogyny, "Game," Financial Success, and Personal Growth

  Men's development as men underwent a significant change in response to the world's post-World War II extraordinary abundance and technical innovation. The average man was paid to use his head rather than his hands for the first time in his life. This change gave men greater opportunities to pursue personal development in addition to professional development. Men were urged to get more knowledge, learn how to persuade others, dress nicely, and grow in confidence. They started to achieve financial success beyond what their parents could have ever dreamed of while keeping the work ethic of the Industrial Man. What's more, the Sophisticated guy didn't hesitate to be a guy.  He pursued a wide range of manly interests and wasn't ashamed of his masculinity. He was clear about his goals and took all necessary steps to achieve them. The Industrial Man's Power  All the positive aspects of the Industrial Man were taken up and expanded upon by the Man of the 1

The Industrial Man: Fortitude, Responsibility, and Hard Work

The Industrial Revolution has had a profound impact on modern masculinity, both positively and negatively. Men's life were comparatively easy before machines and assembly lines were widely used. They were either highly talented artisans or agricultural owners most of the time. The man's art has a strong familial component. He maintained tight ties with all of his neighbors, his wife managed the household, and his sons worked as apprentices under him. This was altered by the Industrial Revolution. For the first time in history, large numbers of men were taken from their homes to work in factories and oversee the arrival of new machinery. Fathers were not spending time with their kids anymore or discussed their job with their loved ones. They turned into walking ATMs that would go to factories (often over great distances), come home exhausted, and then wake up to repeat the whole process. The Industrial Man had a quiet strength that is uncommon in today

What Qualifies a Man as a "Real Man" and How to Be One?

Why does a man become a man? How does one define a "real man"? Beyond the strictly biological, what is a man anyway? The solution to this question was simple hundreds of years ago. What was considered masculine depended on the cultural context in which you were raised. There was no discussion. Not a conversation. Not too in-depth inquiries. You were an artist, a farmer, a philosopher, and a fighter. Being a man was simple. However, the solutions aren't as obvious as they formerly were. The concept of a true man and masculinity are ill-defined. PC society is attacking the traditional masculine characteristics of strength, honor, temperance, authority, influence, etc. With a single breath, Men are taught to be vulnerable, to be in touch with their emotions, and to express their sentiments. The next tells us that these kinds of emotional outbursts are weak or even hazardous, as is the case with "negative" emotions like want, rage, and ambition. We no lo

Kano Provides Patients With Hypertension With Free Services

Recognizing the Medical History of Your Family

I've often wondered why blood is said to be thicker than water. This indicates that a large part of what binds us together as a family is genetic. Now that I'm older, it all makes sense. I recall getting sick not long after my brother did. Our shared environment and genetic ancestry have been major factors in the similarity of our health conditions. Since I'm an Igbo girl, I had to go to the village for Christmas. Finding out about our family genealogy is one benefit of these travels. We come to understand that we have genes in common when we meet our aunts, uncles, cousins, and other extended family members. Medical history in the family is a a list of illnesses and disorders that have been passed down from generation to generation. We are certain to have the same records because we have the same DNA, a roof over our heads, and a meal to eat every night, even though our habits are different. Family reunions provide us with an opportunity to review our family hi
