http://www.publichealth.com.ng/rape-if-you-see-these-5-signs-he-might-be-a-rapist/
The high rate of prostitution and the glorification of commercial sex activities and schemes in higher institutions of learning has also exacerbated the level of sexually transmitted disease in the country. Teenagers are not also left out as their tendencies to explore new things and prove to their parents and peers that they have come of age has landed many in hospitals for all the wrong reasons.
As sex divert more teenagers from class rooms to maternity wards, unfaithful husbands and promiscuous wives have also brought home diseases from one night stands/ accidental quickies and destroyed their families.

At public health Nigeria, we have provided the list of the top 5 sexually transmitted diseases based on published studies and how to avoid them.
1. GONORRHEA
Gonorrhea is the most prevalent sexually transmitted disease (STD) in Nigeria. In fact, in 1963, WHO found Lagos to have the highest gonorrhea rate in the world? Recent surveys report gonorrhea prevalence to be as high as 28.1%. Some studies show a clear association between gonorrhea and male / female infertility. Penicillinase producing Neisseria gonorrhea prevalence varies from 44.4% in Zaria to 80% in Ibadan.
There are major several complications that arises in the event that a gonorrhea remains untreated, this could be related to the body tissues, reproductive capacity and deformities in new born see full details in the link below

2. HIV/AIDS
According to UNAIDS, The number of people living with HIV in Nigeria is between 2, 600 000 – 4, 500 000 more than double the population of some states. The prevalence rate of the disease among Adults aged 15 to 49 is 3.1%. HIV is a sexually transmitted disease that has no cure currently.
Rivers, Taraba and Kaduna are the top three states with the highest level of HIVAIDS infection in Nigeria while Ekiti, Zamfara and Bauchi has the lowest rates. Globally more than 33 million people are living with or affected by HIV/AIDS.
HIV/AIDS has complicated the lives of millions in Nigeria, before the advent of free antiretroviral drugs many perished. In addition, due to the high rate of stigma many infected individuals are not taking advantage of the free anti-retroviral drugs and screening programs available. While many others who are infected, unknowingly infect their loved ones because they do not know they carry the virus.

Shekarau Dispels Rumours He is Forming a New Party
Shekarau Dispels Rumours that He is Forming a New Party
An associate of the former Governor of Kano State and immediate past Minister of Education Mallam Ibrahim Shekarau, Amb Ibrahim Bala Aboki has distanced his principal from any attempt to distabilise the party.
Speaking earlier today with the Tsuntsu Hausa Newspaper correspondent monitored from Kano, Ambassador Aboki insisted that the said meeting only existed in the imagination of those who concocted the story, emphasising that Governor Shekarau is committed to repositioning the party to take its rightful place in the Nigerian political landscape.
It will be recalled that an online media portal ( Not Tsuntsu ) had carried news that the former Governor, Governor Lamido, Mantu and others were planning to form a new party an assertion Aboki described as non existent.
Speaking further he urged supporters to disregard such reports as mere hallucinations in the minds of jobless reporters who sole aim is to peddle falsehood.

SEE WHO PROVIDED 80% OF APC CAMPAIGN FUNDS
It's amazing to hear APC shout corruption, in the eyes of
self appointed Special adviser on Unsubstantiated Allegations Comrade Adams
Oshiomole, everyone in the PDP is a thief, while not holding forth for anyone
who have diverted public funds, I sincerely believe that The APC must start the
cleansing from within its fold, a case of removing the speck in your eyes
before taking out the log from the other man's eyes
See what the Executive Governor of Bauchi state have to say
on who funded the 2015 General Elections for APC.
"Amaechi brought 80% of the money the party used for
the elections"
His Excellency, Mohammed Abubakar.
Executive Governor, Bauchi State.
Live, @ChannelsTV
02.08.15
02.08.15
According to the APC
"N40billion will come from donations and contributions
from the party’s elected members including state governors"
See citation below
http://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/02/campaign-funding-apc-targets-n50billion/
If you do the Maths
80% of 40 Billion is 32 Billion
80% of 50 Billion is 40 Billion
Either way the Governor is saying AMAECHI contributed
between 30-40 Billion Naira to the APC campaign.
How did Amaechi come about such funds?
Was the monies for the Portharcourt monorail inflated or
diverted ?
Was that why a concrete Pillar under Amaechi was constructed
for 100 million Naira?
See for your self.....
The completion date of the Port Harcourt Mono Rail project
is unknown. It covers just 4Km or 50 naira by Taxi ( A trekking distance) and
has gulped $1.2 Billion or N180B.
Amaechi told us that each Piller cost him 100 million Naira
The entire Abuja Kaduna (180 KM) Speed Rail cost GEJ 500 million USD
The entire Ethiopian
Mono rail a distance of 46 Km cost 475 Million USD
Governor Amaechi had previously denied the tag APC ATM
The governor challenged his accusers to provide evidence or
bank account through which he was sending money belonging to the state to APC,
while also adding that the party is capable of funding its activities.
He said: “Rivers State Government has no money to fund the
APC. They have been accusing me of using Rivers money to fund the APC. The APC
is a big party. So, it can fund its activities.”
http://uncova.com/rivers-has-no-money-to-fund-apc--gov-amaechi-denies-atm-tag
General Buhari and the APC have no Moral
Justification to ask anybody to explain
anything until Amaechi who is one of them has explained to the Nigerians how he
came about the money he expended on the APC campaign.
Discerning minds must have realized by now that the
"Kidnap" of the Rivers State Resident Electoral commissioner on the orders
of the chairman of the Intelligence
sub-committee of the APC Campaign organization and Current Director of State
Security services Lawan Daura is not a coincidence. This is despite the fact
that a competent tribunal is currently seating over the Rivers election
petition.
It is clear therefore that the Coffers of the Rivers state
Government is of prime importance to the survival of APC as a party hence the
resort to Illegal, Unconstitutional and Underhand practices to subvert the will
of the Good people of River state.
May God continue to bless Nigeria and Nigerians
