Let me tell you one of the benefits of Zaytun oil and how you can use it for healing.
The Prophet (peace be upon him) stated that it comes from a blessed tree. Many people use it as food. But it is not just food, it is a profound medicine that treats physical and spiritual ailments.
Let’s see how we can use it.
1) If you are suffering from severe constipation or gut issues, take one tablespoon of cold pressed extra virgin Zaytun oil first thing in the morning on an empty stomach. It helps to lubricate the digestive tract and promotes healing in the stomach lining.
2) For joint pains or arthritis, warm the oil slightly. Do not let it boil. Massage it deeply into the painful joints before going to bed.
3) For skin conditions such as eczema, stop relying on harsh chemical creams. Apply Zaytun oil directly to the affected areas after bathing while the skin is still damp.
4) For unexplainable body pains or spiritual heaviness, recite Surah Al-Fatihah seven times over a bottle of Zaytun oil and blow into it. Rub this oil over your body every night before sleeping.
Prophetic medicine is real. You only need the knowledge to use it.
Allah knows best.
Second Place Was the Result. Aikou’s Impact Was the Bigger Story.
Aikou walking away as 1st Runner-Up of Big Brother Naija Season 11 is not a story of almost. It is a story of genuine impact, a distinctive personality and a housemate who gave audiences reasons to pay attention from the very beginning.
The hype around Aikou was never manufactured after the show. It was there from the beginning. From the first week, he was already one of the most talked-about housemates, bringing a different kind of energy that the house and the audience had not fully seen before. Fresh, unpredictable, and entertaining in his own lane, Aikou proved that entertainment does not come in one form.
What made his presence particularly interesting was that he did not need to imitate the louder personalities around him. His entertainment value came through his individuality, unpredictable moments, interactions and the way he navigated the house.
He worked for the love he received. The conversations stayed connected to him throughout the season because he kept delivering moments that forced people to react. That is not luck. That is presence. That is understanding how to stay relevant in a house designed to forget you the moment you go quiet.
He brought something different to the season. And sometimes, being different is precisely what makes a personality memorable.
The final result was close enough to make the point clear. With a small shift in votes, the crown could have gone the other way. But the numbers still told a strong story: Aikou was genuinely loved from early on, not rescued by post-show sympathy. The post-show hype is not a pity campaign. It is recognition of the work he put in and the entertainment value he consistently brought.
Aikou may not have taken the ultimate prize, but he left with something just as powerful — a clear place in the conversation, a distinct style of entertainment, and proof that you can dominate attention without fitting the usual mould.

Young legitimate people between 25 and 35 in Nigeria are not against marriage in the real sense of it.
Most still want it.
They are just scared of what it costs right now.
Money, peace of mind, and the risk of building something that collapses under pressure.
Money comes up first.
Rent in Lagos, Abuja or Port Harcourt is brutal. A place that used to go for 400–500k can now cost 800k to over a million, before furniture or generator.
Food and transport keep rising.
Someone earning 150k to 300k already feels stretched. Marriage means housing two people (and later children) under one roof, plus the expectation that the man carries the bigger share.
Many look at their balance after rent and transport and say “not yet.” They have watched relatives struggle and get disrespected at home over money.
They do not want the same life.
Weddings make it worse. A “normal” wedding families will accept now easily runs into several millions once you add traditional lists, aso-ebi, hall, catering and photography.
Some bride lists alone are frightening.
People borrow heavily or sell land just to meet expectations, then start marriage life in debt.
Couples who need each other still postpone because they do not want the first years spent paying loans.
Social media has turned the celebration into a competition that can leave you broke.
Housing is its own problem.
You can have a solid relationship and still not marry if you cannot find a place both of you can afford without one person living with parents forever.
Culture adds weight.
Marriage is rarely just between two people.
In-laws come with expectations.
The man is still expected to be the main provider even when the woman earns as much or more.
That pressure meets a weak economy and many men feel set up to fail. Some women worry they will do most of the emotional and domestic work while also contributing money.
They have watched their mothers manage households under stress and are not rushing into the same arrangement.
Trust is thinner.
Many have already been through relationships that ended badly due to cheating, greed, lack of patience and foresight, and extreme violence and deceits.
They enter the next one already guarding themselves.
Talking stages drag on because commitment feels risky.
Divorce is more visible now. People see couples who did the big wedding and still split after a few years over money or growing apart.
That makes the permanent nature of marriage feel less safe.
There is also a quieter shift. A lot of young Nigerians want to sort their own lives first; career, some savings, mental space before adding someone else’s needs and family expectations.
The old script of finishing school, getting any job and marrying by 25–28 no longer matches underemployment and rising costs.
Some women would rather stay single longer than settle for a partnership that drains them. Some men feel the bar has moved so high that they would rather avoid the process.
People in that age bracket still get married every year.
But the difference is the caution. They are asking harder questions like:
Can we afford a place?
What happens if one of us loses a job?
Are we clear on money, children and in-laws?
The fear comes from the economy, the cost of the ceremony, the weight of expectations, and enough broken marriages around them.
Until those things ease, many 25- to 35-year-olds will keep choosing to wait.
That does not make them unserious. It just means they are paying more attention and probably feeling "woke".
End.

Let me introduce you to Aikou.
From the moment he walked into the house, Aikou lit up the room with his energy and warm personality. He speaks with confidence, carries himself with intelligence, and already feels like someone who’ll have plenty of interesting conversations this season.
He’s an author who has already written a book but chose to delay its release until after the show to build a wider audience. During his introduction, he dropped a line that stood out: “You do not know where it is or what it is, but it exists.” It was his response to a question from Neche, and it instantly got people thinking.
Aikou is a teacher by profession. He started out teaching French before transitioning into mathematics and programming, but his passion has always been teaching itself. His ultimate dream is to become a professor, not in maths or programming, but in philosophy, neuroscience, and psychology. He’s fascinated by the human mind, loves reading, and has a deep curiosity about how people think and behave.
Definitely one of the housemates to keep an eye on this season.
