Oluwakemi was born into a Baptist family and is very conversant with the word of God. Maybe her greatest assets are that she truly believes in God.

This is what happens when parents fail to teach their children

            

people have too much problems with age. Either our kids are too young to be informed, too young to ask certain questions, too old to do sport, too young at 25 yrs, too old for this or that...

Its better parents communicate with their kids about the questions they ask, if not they're going to learn it from tell-lie-vision, on the street or at school anyway. Kids are young adults. Find a way to COMMUNICATE and give them confidence in themselves and NOT SHOUTING on them

5 Ways To Prevent Cancer



Here is an interesting fact:Cancerous cells cannot survive in an oxygenated environment.
Lets flip this around. It means that a low cellular oxygenation level in newly-formed cells are actually going to turn cancerous. In 1931 Dr. Warburg won his first Nobel Prize for proving cancer is caused by a lack of oxygen respiration in cells. He stated in an article titled The Prime Cause and Prevention of Cancer that "the cause of cancer is no longer a mystery, we know it occurs whenever any cell is denied 60% of its oxygen requirements." This is the prime cause of cancer.

Are the music industry and it’s artists finally feeling comfortable about coming out?
