Recently I've been hearing people complaining over the ratio of single ladies to single guys. Most arrived at the conclusion that it is because girls are given birth to more than the boys but I would like to disagree with such stance.
The last time I made research on male ratio female birth rate, I dscovered that boys are more birthed than girls. Only in a few countries like Norway will you see it the other way round. Even during the last annual convention of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, the number of the children birthed during the program was announced and it was 5:4 boys to girls respectively.

Now here is the statistic behind your illusion...

Given that 50 boys and 50 girls are birthed today. In the next 30 years, there is a high probability that the number of boys would have reduced to 35 or less while the number of girls to 43 or more.
The reason behind this is quite natural as men are more adventurous than women. That causes the rate of mortality to be high in men as they grow older.
Here are the factors that cause high rate of mortality among men:
...Nature of job... Jobs like factory work are dangerous in many ways and it has claimed the lives of many men at their youthful age. Also, transportation is another risky job. Men majorly are the drivers of vehicles and motorcycles.

...Thuggery and Cultism... Without much explanation, I believe you know the danger it has imposed on our society.

... Military... Eventhough women also do join millitary, you can hardly see them at the war front. Ethiopia was recently ravaged by war which caused a serious reduction in men's population. The government have to force the remaining few men to marry at least 2 wives.
Some other factors are also responsible.

Now, by the time they get to their late 20s, men would have reduced in population compared to women.
So I believe this article will be helpful for you when next you are thinking why women seems to be more than men.
Have a wonderful day.

Dino Melaye may have running mouth's disease, but he's telling the truth in this instance.

Aregberascal remits at least 30 percent of whatever monies the state gets to his Godfather, the Jagaban. That man has singlehandedly run Osun state into the ground by awarding white elephant contracts and projects to his cohorts and family. So, I won't be surprised if he doesnt pay salaries.

Honestly, this man should be dragged out and flogged in public for his mismanagement of the state's resources and the hardship he's been inflicting on the civil service and the Osun state residents.

There were many things we grew up doing as teens in the 80's that does not happen anymore, here is my top 15

1) Bouncing: as a young gee bouncing is a must to do (whoever gave it that name?), it involves you walking in a 'swagly' manner in such a way to depict big boy. It took years before I stopped (only God knows how) but it was a serious swag then, and was for only boys. Now people just prefer sagging...

2) Hanging Towel: as a 'big boy' then you needed a medium sized bathroom towel hung around your shoulders. You fold your arm and tilt your body towards the side which the towel is hung, you end up looking like a person under a spell but it didn't matter, you are just demanding some respect from the hood...

3)Lumberjack: Czech is the name of the game, you were not known as a true hommy if you did not represent with a 'lumber', I rocked the red and black most!

4)Santos: remember that cowboy shoes that had a revolving spikes at the back? Only the dopest big boys had it then and it still get me sprawling each time I catch a glimpse of it, somehow, it's gone into the oblivion...

5)Bikes: there was minimum access to rides then so we had to set our sights low...if you had a BMX or a CHOPPER then you were made of gold...you needed this to 'soil your roots' to the ladies in tha hood...now if you brandish a bike then you are a whimp...

6)Fezcap and Walkman: this pair went hand in hand...having a Walkman was a great privilege, topping up ur head with a nice colourful fezcap would have ladies drooling for you... who wears fezcap anymore? And least I forget; Walkman has 'walked' man!

7)Cassette : everybody have a 'must have' cassette at home. Mine was predator, commando, drunken master, terminator, etc... almost all homes had these and yes, you had to brandish right beside the Tv...

8 Satellite Dish: this was only for the top dawgs, if you got one of these, you are a very rich man's son...if you had none, then the one proxy would be used as a landmark... some (like me) would even go far as saying ' when you get to that house with satellite, ask for me I will come out... before then I would have padied with the house owners sha o...

9) Lyrics magazine: it was necessary for you to know your lyrics so as to boast about being informed and exposed...you could give a line or two when you notice the opposite sex, it was like a little intro depicting that you are a gee... so you end up buying a lot of lyrics mag. I suffered from 'hip hop world' people hand ehn, it took me a long while before i actually know it was not 'who shat who nat', we suffered o, now you just simply go online

10) Stories that touches: it was a trend then to buy story magazines, examples are Hints, hearts, etc...only God knows where they are now, my elder sister's room was literally their store room...now who get the time? Just login to nairaland or lib you will see a lot of stories

11) Porn Magazine: it was a must have, you sometimes pop one in your school bag and use it to form a gee for dem gals (at least I know I did that), now people just go online, no time...

12) Comics: I was a comic book fan, I still have like 50 somewhere in my dad's house... we loved reading comics then and some how, we spent almost all our savings on them.

13) Love poems: there was nothing like text messaging so if you meet a gal you like, u write her a poem and slip it into her hands or her bag, u then wait endlessly for reply...it was exhausting especially if the reply came back negative...no be small something o. But now you can whatsapp, txt, etc...

14) Phone: phone was a luxury back then and you could count houses that had them, luckily, mine had but was always locked in my dad's room, when it rang and my friends happen to be in the house, I felt like an oyinbo man living oyinbo life...lol

15)'kitting': whatever happened to our kites? This younger generations dey miss o...kite was a favorite sport then, it was like being a pilot temporarily, people prefer browsing now, to kites
