Labour leaders on Saturday repeated their advice to President Muhammadu Buhari not to be misled by some governors on the new minimum wage demand by Nigerian workers. Labour Speaking during a working visit to Ado Ekiti, the President of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Mr Ayuba Wabba, said there was no going back on the amount submitted to the Federal Government by labour.

Wabba noted that labour was determined more than ever before to ensure that workers received decent p...

Flatulence, passing gas or farting – no matter how you put it, is an essential part of digestion. Let’s discuss the stinking health benefits of letting one rip. 1. IT’S GOOD FOR YOUR COLON HEALTH Parents tell their kids not to “hold it in”. That is actually a very good advice that should be followed throughout life.
