You always have. – Of course you got a raise/that new job. You’re talented, hard working, and everyone know

Big Brother host, Ebuka announced that two of the evicted 11 housemates, including Anto, who was evicted on Sunday would be returning to the show. Ebuka was quoted saying, “There’s a major change in this week’s voting. “Big Brother has accorded two evicted housemates the opportunity to return to the show and play for the money. “So instead of voting for eviction, you will rather be voting for recall of two housemates.” This has stirred up controversy online as Nigerians have condemned the new change, thereby calling on Big brother to rescind his decision.

E-cigarettes 'may do more harm than good,' study suggests

Electronic cigarettes, also called e-cigarettes, are battery-powered devices that heat a liquid solution, which may or may not include nicotine, into a vapor that is inhaled — or "vaped" — by the user. The devices have become a popular alternative to conventional cigarettes in recent years, due in part to the belief that they present fewer health risks than regular ones. The use of e-cigarettes is growing rapidly in the United States. However, this surge in popularity is controversial — not only due to the questions posed by researchers over whether or not vaping is harmful, but also because of concerns that teenagers may be using e-cigarettes as a gateway into regular smoking . The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) have banned the sale of e-cigarettes to individuals under the age of 18.
