The Concept of Youth Empowerment in Nigeria

The Concept of Youth Empowerment in Nigeria

Youth Empowerment in Nigeria

Youth empowerment is a concept put in place by the government, non governmental organizations and some members of the public for a sustainable development so that when a youth learns a vocation and becomes qualified, he or she becomes a master in that vocation and that brings development.

Youth empowerment is manipulative when the youth become skilled in areas they have been trained or learned their skill or vocation, they become masters in their field and may employ others to work with them.

Youth empowerment entails ability of the trainer to have education to some extent to some extent to help in training other youths. Some level of intellectual work is required for youth empowerment , if not, the youths may not be able to acquire the knowledge that is required for the vocation or training.
Youth empowerment will also require some artistic skills. This is because any person without any knowledge of artwork cannot be empowered in the aspect of arts. But when a person has some skills in arts, he will be able to cope when empowered to do a greater work as an artist.

The Major Signs and Symptoms of HIV/AIDS

The Major Signs and Symptoms of HIV/AIDS


I discovered that certain people do not still know much about HIV/AIDS, what it means, how it can be spread, the signs and symptoms, some people even still believe that it can be contacted through sharing of certain things like plates, spoons, sleeping on the same bed, or even shaking of hands or hugs, and so on and secondly, for just basic educational purposes. So guys feel free to ask questions or just post a comment if there is something missing, something you do not understand or something you want me to add. Thank you guys.
Okay now let us get to bususiness.

There are many signs and symptoms which show that a person may have been infected with the virus such as:
* Severe fever (either reoccuring or constant for at least more than thirty days).
* Diarrhea (for more than a month).
* Weight loss (not necessarily always but usually more than ten percent of the total body weight).
* Tuberculosis is also widely found in a significant percentage of the total people who are infected with the virus, AIDS.
* Severe cough is a also a major symptom of AIDS.
* There is also lungs and brain damage.
* Cancers and blisters on mouth and private part.
* Skin rashes.
* Infection of the mouth or throat.
All these signs and symptoms are not really a sure way of determining AIDS. Infact someone showing all these symptoms might not be suffering from AIDS nor HIV, but another sickness even maybe ebola  . A medical personnel should make the necessary diagnosis through a laboratory test.
So, if there is anything thing you guys will like to ask, feel free, or anything I missed or there is something you would like me to talk about, be sure to tell in the comment section below, and do not forget to visit tomorrow because we would be talking about the importance of being tested for HIV/AIDS. Thank you and have a nice day.

Preventive Measures And Ways To Avoid Contacting HIV/AIDS

Preventive Measures And Ways To Avoid Contacting HIV/AIDS





HIV/AIDS is spreading fast among people all around the world and even though people are being educated about the disease, they still go ahead and fall victim to the deadly virus. So, I decided to share a few preventive measures for people to be able to avoid this menace.

1. Clinics and hospitals should avoid sharing or reusing needles and syringes.
2. No sex before marriage.
3. No sex outside marriage.
4. Razor blades and other skin cutting and piercing materials should not be shared
5. Blood transfusion should only be administered when such blood has been tested, screened and declared safe from HIV.
6. Constant or periodic test by individual, married partners is a sure way way of avoiding spread of HIV/AIDS.
7. HIV infected women should try to avoid getting pregnant. Use of contraceptic pills, condoms and other family planning methods should be adopted.
8. Excessive intake of alcohol, drug abuse should be avoided as they are capable of leading to risky behaviour which may result to HIV/AIDS.
9. Medical personnel and other people taking care of AIDS patients should wear gloves while bathing the AIDS patients.
10. clippers should be sterilized before usage at barbing salons.

Faithfulness is a very sure way of minimizing the spread of HIV/AIDS.

Meaning of HIV/AIDS

Meaning of HIV/AIDS


Hi guys, today we are going to be talking about the meaning of HIV/AIDS and in the next few days I am going to post more about HIV/AIDS including the spread of HIV/AIDS, major signs and symptoms, importance of being tested, preventive measures, stigmatization of people living with HIV/AIDS, and a lot more so I would like you guys to follow up. Enjoy!

AIDS means Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome. It is caused by a small germ called Human Immune Deficiency Virus. The Human Immune Deficiency Virus (HIV) that cause AIDS is a small germ that is too small to be seen with an ordinary microscope. It only takes a few of those viruses to enter the human blood for one to become infected and later develop the condition we call AIDS.
AIDS is caused by a virus. Some people in Africa or Nigeria in particular believe that AIDS is caused by witchcraft, or directly from God, bad water or mosquitoes. **Funny right? but seriously certain people still believe that. I even know some one with such belief.**

HIV belongs to a group of viruses called retro viruses. There are several types or varieties of HIV. If a person is infected with any type of HIV and such person is not treated with anti retro viral drugs, it will certainly develop into AIDS, and the person will die within two to fourteen years.

Meaning of the common terms

HIV
Human: This means that the virus is only found in human. It is not found in animals, insects or plants.
Immune Deficiency: This means that the virus reduces the defence power of the immune system. The immune system has the job of protecting the body from all kinds of infections or invaders
Virus: A virus is a germ too small to be seen with a regular light telescope.

AIDS
AIDS is a group of signs and symptoms that develop towards the end of the life of of a person that is infected with HIV.
Acquired: This means a diseases that people get infected with and not that they get infected naturally or from birth. It is not hereditary.The virus is passed from one person to another ; more details will be discussed tomorrow under the Spread of HIV/AIDS.
Immune: HIV affects the immune system. The immune system protects the body fromgerms and other diseases that are harmful to the body system.
Deficiency: This denotes a situation of inadequacy, or the weaknes of a thing to perform as expected. In this case, there is a deficience or a lack of response to all diseases by the immune system.
Syndrome: Syndrome is a medical condition that produces a particular set of problems. In this topic, it refers to signs and symptoms as a result of the presence of AIDS in the human body.
So, if there is anything thing you guys will like to ask, feel free, or anything I missed or there is something you would like me to talk about, be sure to tell in the comment section below, and do not forget to visit tomorrow because we would be talking about how the virus HIV/AIDS is spread.
