What if you find out you can live longer, be more productive, avoid diseases and keep your brain functioning much longer if you fast? Well, in this video by TEDx, Mark Mattson – the current Chief of the Laboratory of Neurosciences at the National Institute on Aging and a professor of Neuroscience at The Johns Hopkins University proves just that.
Mattson is one of the foremost researchers in the area of cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s Disease, Parkinson’s Disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

A Nigerian couple had their children taken by Bexley Social Services in UK after their eldest son made a false allegation of child abuse against them. Despite the boy retracting his allegation
(he thought he would get some new trainers by going into foster care for a month), and them being acquitted in the Crown Court, social services still will not give these parents back their children. Video by ChristianVoiceUK 

It’s now the norm for some people to ask you for bribe if you want to go on the fast track at the Lagos International Airport. A KIRWA viewer was asked to give $20. He filmed it and sent it to me.

The president of Rwanda, Paul Kagame has hit back at the U.S for condemning his intention to run for third term. 

A referendum recently passed by 98% in Rwanda says Kagame could run for 3rd term and possibly remain in power till 2032. After the U.S State Department said in a statement that

Washington was “deeply disappointed” by his decision to not step down ahead of the 2017 poll, Kagame took to Twitter to hit back:

So,…’diappointing?’ as a people and a leader/choices?? Uhhm …it hurts!!! I promise we don’t intend to disappoint..esp ourselves!!!

— Paul Kagame (@PaulKagame) January 4, 2016

Africa’s problems; poverty,disease, gov’nce,techn …etc etc will not easily be solved by what is behind this ‘deep disappt…’ attitude !!!

— Paul Kagame (@PaulKagame) January 4, 2016

There are quite many very disappointing things happening across the globe we hope to carry our own burden and not be others’ burden…!!!

A newly passed referendum in Rwanda will allow President Paul Kagame to run for third term and to possibly remain in power till 2034. While many believe 98% of Rwandans signed the referendum, in this excerpt of KIRWA, some say they were forced to sign the referendum.

This week on KIRWA, a singer convicted of 
raping a 14-year-old girl is now the ambassador against gender violence. Clifford Dimba also known as Captain Kenene served one year of an 18-year prison sentence for the rape before being pardoned by the President.
Since his release, he’s been arrested twice more for violence against women.

When Nigerian soldiers killed hundreds of Shiite Muslims in December, they claimed it was because the Shiites blocked the road. In this excerpt of KIRWA, Adeola discussed who to blame.

I was recently in Michigan, and Naija Enterprise interviewed me on the making of my show -“Keeping It Real With Adeola,” my encounter with President Mugabe, and life in general.

I get shy watching myself anyway, but watching my response when they asked about my morning ritual makes me laugh 🙂 Can’t believe I said that

In this episode of KIRWA, Nigerian President says he has technically defeated Boko Haram, but has he? 


So, should the Nigerian army kill hundreds of Shiite Muslims just for blocking the road?


Also, Adeola features passengers boarding a plane with a ladder in Bauchi State. 

In Zambia, there’s an uproar as the President makes a pardoned rapist the ambassador for the fight against gender violence.


In Rwanda, a referendum now allows President Paul Kagame to run for third term and to possibly stay in power till 2034.

This week on Dr. Damages, the great Trent online newspaper named former President Goodluck Jonathan the man of the year 2015? Dr. Damages tells you the real reason behind that great honor. Once you hear it, you will join in rejoicing.

If you believe Trent online newspaper, President Buhari will be spending N1.7 Billion on food in 2016. Dr. Damages puts on his investigative journalism hat to probe why Buhari’s Aso Rock may be more expensive than Jonathan’s Aso Rock.


As a public service, Dr. Damages puts on his onyokometer to guide you on the changes to expect in the New Year and how to make it a great one. Before you listen to the prophets, listen to Dr. Damages as he breaks it down for you.


The good doctor also breaks down Father Mbaka’s visit to Buhari in Aso Rock and what that means for Buhari and Nigeria in 2016.


Of course, the doctor answers your emails and tells you news making headlines across Nigeria this week. 

A Togolese scientist has invented the world’s most affordable wireless communication system, transmitting voice, internet, and video connections. Several powerful countries have approached Victor Agbégnénou, but he has refused to sell the patent rights to them.

Each time I watch this funny interview, I ask myself “how come most African presidents don’t do things like this?” By the way, during the interview, Obama briefly talked about world leaders that refuse to leave power even when they’re old are barely able to take care of themselves.
By far, I think Obama is America’s coolest president, but don’t take it from me, watch for yourself. 
Also I’m sure there are African presidents that would do something like this, so let me know if your president is one of them.

President Barack Obama was Jerry Seinfeld’s first guest in the seventh season of his online talk show, “Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee,” that opened on Dec. 30th.

By all means, the highlight of tonight’s Headies award was the drama between rapper Olamide and producer Don Jazzy. Angry that his protege Lil Kesh lost the most coveted NEXT Rated award to Mavin record’s Reekado Banks,
Nigerian rapper and YBNL boss Olamide let out some curse words before giving both middle fingers as he left the stage. 
In response, Don Jazzy asked if Olamide would like to come for the car given out for the award.

This is a powerful video, and I do agree with everything he said!
After living in America for about two decades, Patrick Awuah returned to Ghana to start a university that can train responsible leaders that would hopefully transform Ghana. Awuah left his job at Microsoft, where he earned millions as program manager to set up Ashesi University in Accra. 

“If the current leadership core was educated a certain way, if they were problem solvers, if they had deep compassion for society, we would be in a different place,” he said. His University is known for innovative curriculum, high tech facilities, and strong emphasis on leadership.
