Examine your partner’s breast before sucking, expert tells men
A public health physician and Chief Executive Officer of Fest-Michelle Consultancy Services, Dr Festus Adetonwa, has advised men to examine their wives’ breasts before sucking them. He said there could be discharges from the breast like blood which men should always watch out for when engaging in the act. He said, “The problem is that most men don’t suck their partners’ breast during the day, they suck in the night, so they don’t know if the breast is discharging milk or blood. Speaking further on the prevention of breast cancer, he encouraged women to also engage in prolonged breastfeeding. He said, “When they ask you to do exclusive breastfeeding at the hospital, it’s not because it will help your baby to feed alone but it will also help the woman and protect against breast cancer.”

We decide relationship outings individually, Conjoined twins open up on their love lives
Because they have so many internal structures, according to Carmen and Lupita, having separation surgery would be far too risky for them, DailyMail reports on Wednesday. “If we had separation surgery, either one of us would die, both of us would die or we’d end up in the ICU and never get out.” Lupita said. Lupita is asexual, whereas Carmen started using the dating app, Hinge, a few years ago to look for love. In October 2020, she met a man named Daniel on the app and the two soon fell in love.

Addressing sustainability issues in Africa
But not surprisingly, in Africa, many professionals and citizens are unaware of the need to adopt sustainability practices, and many do not know about the United Nations (UN’s)seventeen(17) sustainable development goals. As a result, sustainability actions are disregarded, including the suppression of creativity and eco-innovative products, services, and technologies that could fuel long-term growth and success. Business practices and operations have adversely affected the immediate business environment and the planet. Yet, many remain unperturbed about the level of unsustainable practices within the continent. Sustainability-focused leadership is key in Africa, and businesses should be made to consider environmental values at the core of their strategic route.
