WELCOME TO HEALTHERTAINMENT

I looked across Africa and Nigeria in particular, so many blogs on entertainment, gossips and breaking news.

Only little effort is placed on our very reason of existence cum "health is wealth". As the popular saying goes, our very reason of existence is based on the state of our well being.

It is imperative to note the following:
In 2012, almost 5 million (73% of all under-five deaths) occurred within the first year of life. The risk of a child dying before completing the first year of age was highest in the WHO African region (63 per 1000 live births), about six times higher than that in the WHO European region (10 per 1000 live births)globally, the infant mortality rate has decreased from an estimated rate of 63 deaths per 1000 live births in 1990 to 35 deaths per 1000 live births in 2012. Annual infant deaths have declined from 8.9 million in 1990 to 4.8 million in 2012. 
 Its on this note, my colleagues and I have taken up a mandate of using the social media to our advantage, informing you about causes and prevention of diseases, essential health tips and pharmacological information.

We'll be obliged to answer your questions professionally, treat your comments and concerns unbiasedly. Have a blessed weekend ahead.

Remember, health is wealth.
