Businessman Wale Jana said 'Money is the biggest threat to men in marriage'

Posted: 02 Mar 2021 12:30 AM PST

Businessman, Wale Jana, is of the opinion that the true test of a man's love for his wife comes when he has finally made money.

In a post shared on his Instagram page, he said a man would never know if he is a faithful man or loves his wife until he has made money. He stated in his post that if a man has millions and still loves and respects his wife, then he is a good man. He averred that money changes men and it is the biggest threat to a man and his marriage.

His post reads

"Today I am talking about the threats to your marriage. One of the biggest threats to your marriage is money.

You don't know if you are a faithful man or if you love your wife till money comes. If you have millions and you still love and respect your wife you are a good man.

Money changes men, it is the biggest threat ever to him and his marriage. If he doesn't have any sense he will marry another wife or treat his wife badly.

Don't be a fool o, if she was there during difficult times, she must be there when money comes. She is tested and trusted and that's rare to find. The slay queen all over you will drop you like a hot plate the day you can't pay bills o, she was not built to suffer with you!

If you are already misbehaving because money has come, bros someone has to clear you, you don de lose guard, you have to comport. Know your weakness and manage it so it doesn't destroy something good.

May you receive this knock of common sense in Jesus name.

Please share so that others can be blessed as you are blessed."

The harsh truth about hair relaxers

Posted: 01 Mar 2021 01:00 AM PST

Although a lot of people grew up using them, the chemicals in relaxers are doing more damage than you could possibly imagine.

More and more women of colour are waking up to the dangers of relaxers and choosing instead to embrace their natural hair. Many still do not understand the devastating effects that relaxers can have, not only you hair, but on your health too.

Here is the harsh truth about relaxers.

As more women are embracing their natural hair and are , a large percentage still regularly use relaxers.

The misconception is that if a relaxer is burning then it's working but in reality, if a relaxer is burning then it is doing more damage than you could possibly imagine.

The harmful chemicals in relaxer seep through our skin and cause untold havoc with our physical health.

Keep reading to find out exactly why we should ditch the relaxers!

Who invented relaxers?

Contrary to popular belief, relaxers were invented by Garrett Morgan not Madam CJ Walker. He was the son of a former slave. In 1910 he was originally trying to create a new lubrication for the sewing machine needle. The lubrication accidentally touched the hair on his arm and he noticed that the hair began to lay straight.

By total accident, Morgan developed a hair topical for black people to chemically force their naturally curly hair straight. He called this invention the "Relaxer."

What are they made of?
Relaxers are made of chemicals that counteract the natural chemical makeup of curly hair. Sodium hydroxide or "lye" is the most hazardous ingredient. The soap company, Certified Lye, cautions users that "substances with large amounts of lye can cause chemical burns, permanent injury or scarring, and blindness. Lye (sodium hydroxide) may be harmful or fatal if swallowed".

Though there are some relaxers, such as Dark and Lovely, African Pride, and Optimum Care, who exclude lye from the ingredient regimen, there are other chemicals used that are still hazardous.

Another ingredient is guanidine carbonate. Chemicalbook.com says that when handling guanidine carbonate "only use in chemical fume hood." Also, relaxer ingredient, succinic acid should be kept out of contact with skin clothes and eyes. Bio-amber, a company that manufacturers renewable chemicals, states in their website that "it (succinic acid) may be harmful if absorbed through skin."

This warning is startling because a relaxer directly comes in contact with the users scalp.

What are the dangers?
Scientific research has shown there is cause for concern with the use of the ingredients found in Black hair care products. These products enter our body via the scalp and can lead to many complications.

Studies show relaxers cause life-threatening ailments such as reproductive problems, heart disease, different forms of cancer, early puberty, fibroids, and mental health disorders. Relaxers have been found to disrupt the chemical balance of our bodies by entering our system via cuts and burns.

For more information on just much relaxers are harming you and how they pose an immediate danger to your physical health, take a look at the video below!
