What Happened To Iron Woman?

NIGERIA: Former Iron woman of National Agency for Food, Drug Administration Agency, who also served as Information Minister and who was a failed senatorial candidate in her native Anambra state;  Professor Dora Akunyili caused a stir when she appeared at the National Judicial Institute venue of the on going national conference in Abuja on Monday looking very pale, emaciated and almost ghoulish.
 
Delegates and acquaintance didn't recognise her until she introduced herself to them.
 
The pictures of her at the Confab generated talks on social media platform as to what kind of ailment made her looking a far cry of herself and some are of the opinion she ought to have put on some weight before making public appearances.
 
My guess is that the former NAFDAC must have heard or read the talks on her current emaciated look on media sites and she has replied with a post on her Facebook page:
 
  “I just came out of a major sickness, for which I thank Almighty God for delivering me. I know that God did that for a purpose.
“I am well now but only need time to put on more weight. However, I am strong enough for this Conference and I look forward to collaborating with other delegates to chart the way for a better Nigeria,” See more pics after the cut..

Over Here Guys!; Mosanto Develops Revolutionary New Penis-Enlarging Corn Crop. (Must Read)

The multinational agrochemical and agricultural biotechnology corporation, Monsanto, announced this morning, that they had genetically engineered a modified corn crop, designed to help men have larger penises and longer-lasting erections. The company’s scientists used genes from a number of plants to create this surprising species of transgenic corn, described as “more efficient than any penis-enlarging pill”. They notably used genetic material from a plant native to Indonesia and Malaysia, called  Eurycoma Longifolia  or  Tongkat Ali , which is known for its ability to raise testosterone levels. They also used genes from watermelon, as its rind is a good natural source of citrulline, a dietary precursor which causes the penis to fill up nitric oxide. This relaxes the smooth muscle in blood vessels and erectile organs, augmenting the penis’ capacity for enlargement during erection. “Men will no longer have to pay hundreds of dollars to have larger penises”  says Dr. Fi

For the love of woman! Man chops off his friend’s hand

Dailytrust quoted Umar as saying Habiba had relocated with her parents from Kaduna, some months ago, and that before they could get a room to rent, he gave his room to them as a temporary shelter and relocated to his friend’s room. “My friend, Yusuf, started developing interest in the lady.
