A Twitter user has shared a warning from food experts about the use of rotten tomatoes to cook and adverse side effects to health like cancer and immune deficiency.

“‘Stop using rotten tomato to cook, it is dangerous to your health. If is cracked or rotten, throw it away’ – Food Safety Expert warns.
Once tomatoes become rotten, they will have microorganisms, mostly fungi, and fungi in rotten tomatoes produce mycotoxins which are deadly and induce cancer, and cause immune deficiency in man and animals” he tweeted.

Netizens did not agree with this study and think only the rich can afford to be selective about the type of tomato they would cook with and believe a poor man cannot really be bothered by a little rot in tomato.

Some seemed to think if our forefathers could survive cooking with rotten tomatoes, then we could too.

Following the heart wrenching video of health practitioners ignoring Rico Swavey while he was in need of critical attention, netizens have taken to Twitter to share tales of how they lost loved ones due to negligence from health workers.

Twitter user, @eniturn has shared the story of how his friend died from an asthma attack and was refused medical attention despite all the pleas from all his friends that brought the young man in.

Read his tweet below:

“Reminds me of when we lost a Mayowa, a Student in the university of ibadan, we were watching football and due to his asthmatic condition, he found it really hard to breathe and we rushed him to jaja clinic. They refused to open the clinic door because they were on strike and We were pleading and begging for the health workers to at least attend to him, maybe just an inhaler would have saved him, he died right in our hands at the clinic door and when the university would release the news, they said he died before we brought him to the clinic. The Same clinic that refused to open the door. Truly Nigeria can happen to anyone at anytime and Nigerians are the major problems of Nigeria. Zero humanity and abrupt selfishness and Wickedness. Rest easy once again Mayowa.”

A viral video of a bride refusing to say “for richer for poorer” while taking her marital vows has caused a stir online.

The video of the adorable couple exchanging their marital vows at the altar on their wedding day was shared online. However, the bride’s refusal to say exactly what the officiating priest had told her to say elicited reactions.

In the clip, the officiating minister says, “To have and to hold from this day forward, for better or worse, for richer or for poorer.”

When it was the bride’s turn to repeat the vows after the officiating minister, she replaced the poorer with richer, “For richer for richer,” she said.

The moment she said that, the congregation and the minister erupted in raucous laughter at the bride’s antics.

The minister then responded, stating that she loved the bride’s zeal.

The groom, who was holding his bride’s hand the entire time was also giggling loudly.

The video elicited mixed reactions from netizens. While some noted that she was just being optimistic other tagged it as being materialistic.
