Eradicating Anemia: The Unilever, Nutrition Society of Nigeria kind gesture

A healthy woman is central to a healthy country; it is probably because of this that Nutrition Society of Nigeria (NSN) in conjunction with Unilever Nigeria has come up with a sensitization programme to highlight the dangers that Micro-nutrients and anemia portends for the women folk writes ‘Fisayo Ajibola and Babajide Okeowo. What is Nutrients-deficiencies and Anemia Iron deficiency which leads to Anemia is the most common and widespread nutritional disorder in the world. This is a condition in which the red blood cells or their oxygen-carrying capacity is insufficient to meet physiological needs of the body. The symptoms of anemic condition includes, fatigue, dizziness, weakness, drowsiness, shortages of breath and all these militate against active living and human productivity as iron is critical to learning process and energy for day to day activities. As well as affecting a large number of children and women in developing countries, it is the only nutrient deficiency which is also significantly prevalent in Industralized Countries. This deficiency affects more people than any other condition, constituting a public health condition of epidemic proportions. More subtle in its manifestations than, for example, protein-energy malnutrition, iron deficiency exacts its heaviest overall toll in terms of ill-health, premature death and lost earnings. Iron deficiency and Anemia reduce the work capacity of individuals and entire populations, bringing serious economic consequences and obstacles to national development. If you think this is scary, wait for this. Nigeria faces one of the largest burdens of micro-nutrient deficiencies with anemia the most common with a big impact on health of women and children, specifically, 49 per cent of women of reproductive age have anemia, 24.3 per cent have low iron stores and 12.7 per cent of them are iron deficient. These figures indicate that majority of the adolescent girls and women did not meet the iron requirements of 20 milligrams per day as recommended by the Food and Agricultural Organisation and the World Health Organisation. The above is the summation of The Nutrition Society of Nigeria. This is however raised serious concerns among relevant stakeholders led by the Nutrition Society of Nigeria, NSN, who said that iron is one of the most prevalent micronutrient deficiencies globally, with almost one of every two women of reproductive age being anemic in Nigeria.

Oil Swap Fraud: Aiteo, Atlantic Energy Faces Investigation

With the oil sector reputed to be highly corrupt, energy companies, Aiteo and Atlantic Energy are heading for a major investigation as the companies have been alleged to have unfairly exploited its Offshore Processing Agreements (OPA) and lifted crude beyond its entitlements from the upstream Strategic Alliance Agreements, SAAs. Aiteo and Geneva-¬based, Nigerian-¬owned trader, Sahara each signed a two–year OPA in November that took effect in January to deliver products against roughly three 950,000 barrel cargoes a month. A general rule of thumb equates approximately 120,000 tons of gasoline or kerosene to each standard cargo of crude. Contracts seen by Energy Compass outline a process requiring the counterparty to specify products and parcel sizes, delivery date range and discharge port within a week of loading the crude. Aiteo’s contract requires products to be supplied within two months of crude loading. Traders and NNPC insiders allege that by late March, Aiteo was more than 20 cargoes in arrears on the new deal. Analyzing these complex arrangements is not easy, but data obtained by Energy Compass for products shipped against January and February loadings indicates some shortfall and suggests Aiteo was casual in following contract process. For example, after loading two cargoes in January, Aiteo nominated 110,000 metric tons of dual purpose kerosene against one cargo but showed few plans to offset the other, listing only product delivery dates, with gasoline and vessels to be arranged later. http://perfectbrandsng.com/oil-swap-fraud-aiteo-atlantic-energy-faces-investigation/

Alibaba Secretly Invested In Amazon Challenger Jet.com

Chinese e-commerce powerhouse Alibaba Group recently invested in Jet.com, a soon-to-launch online retailer that hopes to challenge Amazon.com AMZN 0%, multiple sources confirmed to FORBES. Alibaba’s previously undisclosed investment came as part of Jet’s $140 million round in February, which was led by Bain Capital Ventures and joined by the likes of Accel Partners, New Enterprise Associates and others. The Montclair, N.J.-based company also raised about $5 million last month in a filing disclosed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. With promises that his company will offer cheaper prices than Amazon for products ranging from sporting goods to toilet paper, Jet’s founder Marc Lore has raised more than $225 million, a stunning amount given that his company has not yet unveiled its e-commerce website. Lore previously created Quidsi, the operator of online commerce sites like Diapers.com, before selling it to Amazon for $550 million in 2010. Lore declined to comment on Alibaba’s investment in his company. Alibaba also declined to comment. Alibaba’s investment in Jet gives it a piece of perhaps the most ambitious challenger to Amazon in years. Alibaba has a track record of investing in U.S.-based startups–among them ride-hailing service Lyft, online-shopping service ShopRunner and photo-messaging app Snapchat. It also launched online marketplace 11 Main in June, though that site has since received a tepid reception among American consumers. Those familiar with Alibaba’s investment strategy, which is led in the U.S. by former Liberty Media LMCA +0.62% executive Michael Zeisser, said that its backing of American companies gives it a direct window to Silicon Valley trends. Investments also allow it to develop easier partnerships with U.S. startups, among them a relationship with ShopRunner that allows American brands to sell directly to Chinese consumers. Following it’s $140 million round in February, Lore told FORBES that he didn’t “have any more plans to raise more capital.” “We’re using this money to invest in the value proposition to the customer,” he said in February. “It’s more dollars to invest across the board from product to market to infrastructure and operations.” In the past, Lore was quoted as saying that Jet would have to raise up to $600 million to develop a worthy challenge to Amazon, though he said more recently that those figures were taken out of context. “In order to build a really big business in e-commerce you’re going to need a lot of capital, but there’s no set amount of money,” said Lore. “If you think about it, Amazon early on in its existence raised $1 billion.” http://perfectbrandsng.com/alibaba-secretly-invested-in-amazon-challenger-jet-com/
