"I support my man in every little way, I can support." "No matter how little, but something for your man." "How can you close your eyes and watch your man pay all the bills? Even if it is Maggi for soup, do something, no matter how little" Na that "little" I no want. I dey forbid am. Why is every financial input you want to make in your relationship and marriage "little?" I want my partner's support in every way possible. You dey forbid to do big thing? Where is the partnership? You're an adult. I expect you to behave like an adult and that includes, sorting bills.

I guess the reason some truly say little is because they earn "little" for sure. Where I have a problem is when she earns well and can comfortably afford to give me more. Why give little and call it support?

HEPATITIS B IS KILLING MORE NIGERIANS THAN HIV. AND MOST DON’T EVEN KNOW THEY HAVE IT. 🏥 Nigeria has one of the highest Hepatitis B burdens in the world. Over 20 million Nigerians are currently living with chronic Hepatitis B infection. That’s nearly 1 in 10 people. Meanwhile, everyone is running from HIV and Hepatitis B is quietly doing more damage. HIV kills roughly 1.5 million people globally per year. Hepatitis B kills close to 2 million. It is deadlier. It is more contagious. And it spreads faster. Hepatitis B is transmitted through blood, unprotected sex, sharing sharp objects like razors, clippers, needles and from mother to child during childbirth. You don’t need to be “reckless” to get it. The barber’s blade. The hospital that cuts corners. The mother who didn’t know she was positive. That’s how entire families carry it without knowing. And that’s the most dangerous part…NO SYMPTOMS. Most people with Hepatitis B have zero symptoms for years. Sometimes decades. By the time the body starts showing signs like fatigue, jaundice and abdominal pain . The liver may already be severely damaged. Cirrhosis. Liver cancer. Liver failure. You can be walking around looking healthy, infecting people and dying slowly all at the same time. But here is where it differs from HIV. THERE IS A VACCINE. A highly effective, widely available vaccine exists. Three doses and you are protected for life. If you were born before routine vaccination became standard in Nigeria, there’s a real chance you were never covered. There is also antiviral treatment for those already infected. It doesn’t cure it, but it suppresses the virus, protects the liver and reduces transmission dramatically. So here is what you need to do: GET TESTED. A simple blood test, the HBsAg test tells you your status. It costs very little. Some hospitals and health campaigns offer it free. You cannot treat what you don’t know you have. If you test NEGATIVE, get vaccinated immediately. Don’t delay it. If you test POSITIVE, see a doctor. You will need liver function tests, viral load monitoring and possibly antiviral therapy. Do not manage this alone. Tell your family. Hepatitis B is a family disease. If you test positive, your spouse, children and close contacts need to be tested and vaccinated too. People will openly discuss malaria drugs on this app. But Hepatitis B? Silence. Stigma. Avoidance. That silence is why people are dying preventable deaths every single day in this country. You owe it to yourself and the people around you to know your status. Go get tested. Get vaccinated. See a medical practitioner. Your liver is the only one you have. PROTECT it.👏
