Low self-esteem means not to treat yourself with a noble attitude. You may not feel confident or insufficient, may feel anxious, and may criticize yourself harshly

We have all heard of how microwave food removes certain nutritional values, but is this true? Is there anything bad about the food behind the microwave glass? There is no risk of microwave radiation, but there is a danger of heating plastic. When food wrapped in plastic is heated in a microwave oven, carcinogens are produced in the food.

Microwave can slightly reduce the nutrient content of certain foods, but it is not enough to have a major impact on your health, vitality, or longevity.

Microwaves are a safe, effective and highly convenient cooking method. There is no evidence that they can cause harm-and there is evidence that microwaves are even better than other cooking methods in preserving nutrients and preventing the formation of harmful compounds, Unless indicated as safe to use, do not overheat or overheat food, or heat anything in a plastic container. Store food in plastic containers and transfer it to glass or ceramic containers before microwave processing

Microwave radiation is completely harmless. Microwaves use low-frequency electromagnetic radiation-the same electromagnetic radiation used in light bulbs and radios. When you put food in the microwave, it will absorb these microwaves, which will cause the water molecules in the food to vibrate, creating friction and heating the food. All forms of cooking reduce the nutrients in food. When heating food, some of its water will evaporate and absorb some nutrients.

The microwave is a convenient, easy to use, and a super quick way to heat up your leftover foods, but there are some foods that should never heated;

1: Anything with bread,this includes items like burgers, sandwiches, and cabs.

2: Peppers; Chili peppers, especially the really spicy ones, contain high levels of capsaicin, When exposed to the electromagnetic waves it begins to smoke and can be prone to catching on fire.

3: Potatoes: Potatoes lose their nutritional value if reheated. If they are left at room temperature for a long period, they can cause nausea or illness, and even food poisoning.

4: Carrots: If carrots are not washed properly and have any residue of dirt, the minerals in the soil can cause sparks in the microwave.

Financial constraints is one thing that can get you frustrated, everyone wants to be able to track their finances but not all are disciplined enough to be With all the information we see and hear about money every day, few people really have control over their money. We tend to let money control our lives, rather than enrich our lives.

Although money cannot bring you happiness, it can bring you a sense of security. If you do not have experience in money management, you may always feel that your life is only one step away from a financial cliff.

1: Create A Budget
An author, John C. Maxwell explains budgeting perfectly, “A budget is telling your money where to go instead of wondering where it went.”

A budget is just a plan for your money so that you can better understand where you are going each month.

A popular and effective way to budget is with the 50/30/20 rule. How it works is 50% of your income goes towards the necessities (bills, food, housing, etc.), 20% of your income goes towards savings and the remaining 30% you can use for whatever you please.

2: Spend Less Than You Earn

It is easy to know that your expenses should be less than your income, but it is much more difficult to actually do it.

To do this, you need to track expenditures. You can do this by writing a record of your purchase or using a free personal finance application.

3: Create an Emergency Fund
These are Fund that can be used if you’ve lost your job, you have a medical emergency, your car breaks down, you have emergency home expenses (like a leaky roof), or you need to travel to a funeral. 

4: Save

Set aside a minimum of 5% of your salary for savings before you start paying your bills. Better yet, have money automatically deducted from your account into a separate one.

5: Create Multiple Source of income

Learn a New Skill, Ask For a Raise, Try Affiliate Marketing.

Having multiple sources of income can help you reach your financial goals much faster. The benefit of working a side hustle is that you have more disposable income to play with.

I am writing this post as a result of the research I carried out recently from the able recognized body dealing with corrupt practices in over 180 countries. Corrupt practices in Nigeria started as far back as 1975. The 1975 Nigerian coup d’état was a bloodless military coup which took place in Nigeria on 29 July 1975 when a faction of junior Armed Forces officers overthrew General Yakubu Gowon (who himself took power in the 1966 counter-coup). Obasanjo succeeded him as head of state.

Data extracted from Transparency International on Nigeria’s Corruption Index

I have taken time to plot this chart here above to show you what the statistics of corrupt practices in Nigeria looks like with reference to the index. From the image above, you see Rank, Score and Countries. The Rank and countries are related. For example in 2020, Nigeria ranked 149/180. This means out of the 180 countries that were examined, Nigeria came 149th position which is an AWEFUL 82.7% corrupt. The score here is ranked /100 % ; so for 2020, Nigeria had 25/100. If I had a child who brings this result home, the child is grounded for sure.

Yet, you hear statements like this:

If a child fails in the class, won’t the class teacher ask him to repeat?

Unfortunately, this is the narrative in Nigeria right now, where the ruling class as not ashamed of repeating terms and doing even worse than the previous term.

Explanation of the Chart

If you look at this chart properly, sometimes it will feel like Nigeria improved in a certain year than the previous but when compared to the number of countries for that year, then the result is fairly the same or even worse. For example, between 2014 and 2015, you have the same rank score of 136 which will seem like nothing happened , but compare the figures below, you see an increase from 77.7% to 80%

136 / 175 = 77.7 % – 2014

136 / 168 = 80% – 2015

This also applies to the score as well in the corrupt practices in Nigeria. All the scores range between 24 to 28. It is safe to say that

24 < = score < = 28

In summary, the corrupt practices in Nigeria is not improving at all, rather it is getting worse especially under the Muhammed Buhari Administration since 2015 till date. From ASSU strikes to fuel pump price increase; a whole lot of other issues including insecurity; THE COUNTRY AND ITS ADMINISTRATION HAS FAILED
