The Flying Doctor: s*x, Food, Drugs & Davido

 I am sitting up in Wings, the restaurant at the top of our office block at the airport and the latest Davido video comes on.

Naturally, he is surrounded by women, alcohol and has a few fast cars parked outside his building. I think what artists sing about and the images they portray are simply a reflection of what society wants to hear.

Right now, majority of Nigerians measure success according to how many women they can sleep with, how much champagne they can drink, how many fast cars they can buy and what designer labels they can wear. So Davido follows that trend, dishing out our fantasies in droves. This is wonderful for his bank balance, but this lifestyle sucks in terms of the way it’s affecting our health.
In terms of healthcare, we are facing a double threat. Firstly, from what I will call the ‘unfinished business’ of infectious disease, then also a new threat from the lifestyle diseases. The spread of infectious diseases such as HIV, malaria and TB can be stopped completely in the next 5 -10 years if an aggressive approach is embraced by all stakeholders within the healthcare sector.

'I'm the best, don't need Ballon d'Or'

Football | International

Cristiano Ronaldo or Franck Ribery can have the Ballon d'Or, Zlatan Ibrahimovic does not need it.
The Swedish striker has been in superb form this year for Paris St Germain, scoring eight goals in this season's Champions League - as many as Real Madrid's Ronaldo - to help the French side ease into the last 16.

The Portugal forward, however, has emerged as favourite for the Fifa-Ballon d'Or award after netting a hat-trick for his country in a 3-2 defeat of Sweden in last week's World Cup playoff second leg, qualifying his country for the 2014 finals.
French winger Ribery helped Bayern Munich secure a treble last season and was early favourite for the award, won three times in a row by Barcelona's Lionel Messi, until Ronaldo garnered some late support for his performances with Portugal.
