wrong -from getting the right colour shade to applying it inappropriately -and they end up with outrageous results. So, learn the tricks and try it out Just like women, for men of style, there’s always something to add to look dapper. For some, it’s not about how many clothes you own, it is about styling to stand out.

Growing up My childhood days were fun. My parents were civil servants and we grew up in Gombe state in a secluded and quiet area where you hardly knew who lived next to you. Such a reserved life has really moulded me and rubbed off on my character.

He is loving, caring and humble, qualities I observed in him during our courtship. He remains the same person I married 18 years ago.

What I learnt from marriage I always tell young couples whenever I attend a wedding ceremony that the first five years is just

My dream I had always wanted to be a lawyer because I always wanted – and still want - justice to prevail.

I detest cheating and oppression. However, that dream changed after I sat for the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board and was offered Political Science rather than law. However, my law dream still materialised in a way through my marriage to a lawyer. I consoled myself that if I couldn’t fulfil my dream of becoming a lawyer, at least I am married to one.

How I met him Actually, he told me that the first time he saw me was at a wedding ceremony and that was during my first year in the university. I was then residing with my elder sister. One fateful day he came visiting at my sister’s place and that was how the relationship started. However, because I was unable to combine marital status with education, he had to wait for me to finish school and then we got married.

What attracted him to me

like kindergarten class. After that, you can consider yourself a primary school student in marriage.

Marriage requires patience and respect for one’s husband because there will be many obstacles.

Supporting my husband I support my husband in any way I can do; whenever he is down I try to lift his spirit by giving him words of encouragement and advice. I pray for things to always go well with him while I stay back at home to look after our children.

Juggling motherhood and being a wife It is not easy, but each must be given its due attention or else one might overshadow the other.

Being a mother, one should have adequate time for the kids and be up-to-date on their affairs. Also, the husband should get one’s adequate attention. The home demands sensible balancing.

Motherhood experience I was so overwhelmed with joy when the first baby came. I was still very weak but when I set my eyes on my child I became very strong and full of life again. I was young when I had my first child because I put to bed a year after our wedding and, Alhamdulillah, everything went well. Being a mother is one of the joyous moments of my life; there is this unexplainable joy that dwells in me as

08 ‘I admire my father’s patience and perseverance’

Soft-spoken, humble but very confident Halima is the fifth daughter of one of the most prominent Nigerians today. Halima was born to General MuhammaduBuhari (former Head of State and presently the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress) and Hajiya Aisha Buhari. Over the years, the general had gained a reputation as an incorruptible leader who has zero tolerance for corruption and indiscipline. This trait has raised the bar for many Nigerians, and even members of his family are always under the microscope in terms of their conduct.

Though Halima doesn’t think she is under any pressure to behave in a certain way, she simply thinks she was brought up to do the right things.

Away from the public glare, her dad is the best father she could wish for.

She shares her story with Tambari.

INTERVIEW BY Aisha Umar-Halilu What is your educational background?

normal upbringing.

What kind of father is General Buhari?

I studied law in the university and I just completed my one year National Youth Service Corps (NYSC). I am also a mother of one.

He is a very loving and caring father. He advises and tells you what to do and how to behave. He also tries as much as possible to tell you what not to do and what he won’t like. He plays the role of every normal father.

What was it like growing up as a daughter of a prominent Nigerian?

How is your relationship with him?

It was very simple and normal because we were brought up in a very humble home. My dad basically shielded off all this extravagances and we grew up like every other normal child. It was later on that I realized that this is who we truly are; it is not everything that we want to do that we can do. While we were growing up, we were always going to the village every holiday to spend time with our relations. We were allowed to go to the farm and explore and walk around Daura, so we really had a

He has a softer side. When he is at home, he relaxes with his family and relates with us just like every other father does. When he is at home you will know that he is at home because you will feel his presence. He is really free with us and also jovial. He loves his grandchildren and plays a lot with them.

What is his favourite meal?

I know for sure it is tuwon alkama da miyar kuka. He can eat it every day.

What is his most outstanding character?

He likes spending time with his grandchildren a lot because they make him happy and laugh. When he is in town he always tells us to bring our children over.

Does your father have pet names for his grandchildren?

He gives them nicknames and has quite a lot of them. There are 15 grandchildren with the 16th on the way. He calls his first granddaughter his first lady; she is 17 years old. He calls my daughter Laraba because she was born on Wednesday. Sometimes, when I visit him he will ask after her and when I say she is at home, he will say ‘I will stop you from entering this house if you don’t start coming with her.’ He is so loving.

What is a typical day for him like?

When he is not politicking he stays at home and watches the television or he goes over the newspapers.

How does

TAMBARI 8TH FEBRUARY, 2015

being the daughter of a prominent Nigerian rub off on you?

First, I have a big role to play because you are always expected to be of good behaviour and present yourself in a proper manner. It is also expected of us to behave well in public and to follow the rules. But I am always under this pressure of how to present myself publicly because people know my dad as a man of higher class.

What memories do you recall about your childhood?

My favourite memory was actually when I was in primary school. When my dad retired from the Petroleum Trust Fund we spent ample amount of time with him. Every time we came back from school, we would go to his living room with our homework because he always did our home work with us. These moments were precious to us because since then we never had such time again.

I also remember when we would go to Daura with him and visit our family farm together. He loves walking and going to the farm with him was such a tedious task for us because he had his boots and we had our little trainers.

You know he is tall and when he took one step we would be jogging behind to catch up with him. It was really fun.

We were also doing horse-riding in the farm.

How would you describe your mum?

She loves being a mother and wife. But she is a tough woman with determination. When she wants something, she goes for it.

What is her soft side?

She is really into beauty therapy. When she lectures us on how to apply cream, she tells us not to put the cream all over our hand. She will say your hand must have absorbed all the moisture of the cream so you should just put it at the tip of your finger.

When she is at her spa and with her clients, she is advising them on what to eat and do and also what they should be taking every once in a while. That is when I really see the soft side of her.

right.

What have you learned from your dad?

His determination, patience, courage and perseverance.

What he has gone through in politics has been an eyeopener. In all my life, I have seen him struggling to make Nigeria work and be great. He has not given up and I don’t think he is going to give up anytime soon until he sees Nigeria fixed.

What qualities do you admire most about him?

His vision. He tolerates a lot but people look at him through his military background and that he is tough and doesn’t tolerate nonsense. nse. When it comes to corruption, he doesn’t tolerate olerate that. What I admire most about him is his patience and perseverance, because he doesn’t rest until he gets things right, which is not easy with Nigerians.

What is your wish h for Nigeria?

My wish for Nigeria is for us to be secure, to have good roads, to havee water running in our taps and to also have electricity when we need eed it.

What is your happiest moment? nt?

That is whenever I see him looking happy, when he hass achieved something and is looking forward to the nextt one.

What has been your most exciting moment?

That was when I had my own child.

What are her passions other than beauty therapy?

Who are your role models?

Definitely, the condition of women in Nigeria. The maternal mortality rate, the state of children and women’s

My parents are my role models.

What are your goals in life?

How would you describe your spouse?

He is a very simple person, humble and patient as well. That was what actually attracted me to him. He is understanding and gives people the chance to correct themselves when they do him wrong because he has a forgiving spirit.

What is the most memorable part of your wedding?

That was when I nearly fell on my high heels. I was advised to wear them because myy husband is a very tall man.

WAISTCOAT: EVERY MAN’S WARDROBE ESSENTIAL

aistcoat is a must have for every man. A well-fitted vest is long enough in the front to cover a man’s waist with no shirt showing between the belt and the waistcoat.

Waistcoats come in different patterns, designs and colours to enable you create a fashion statement when you go out for a casual date or business meeting. The shoulders of the waistcoat should always lie flat against your body and below any collar points. When you want to go the extra mile with your formal look, choose a smart men’s waistcoat to pair with your suit. These will work particularly well with a pair of casual trousers, too. You don’t have to match the fabrics exactly; a contrasting waistcoat can look equally dapper with a plain smart shirt with the hands of the shirt rolled up. Go get one and spice up your wardrobe.

You must comply with the antibiotic regimen and also complete the treatment. Your sexual partner must also be treated.

Without creating panic, infection of the male private is not to be taken lightly. It should be treated aggressively. Untreated or poorly treated sexually transmitted infection, or urinary tract infection is a major cause of urethral stricture with associated difficulty in voiding urine which comes with excruciating pains and may require operations to correct.

Also untreated or poorly treated STI and UTI could result in occlusion of the vas deferens and the resultant oligospermia or azospermia, which is a major problem or cause of male infertility. Young men should be encouraged to seek treatment early in case of sexually transmitted infections.

Another challenge is when the female partner is being treated and drug is prescribed. There is a tendency for the man to insist he has no symptoms; this is a fallacy. Apart from retransmitting it to the female, there is this concept of sub-clinical infection and same damage described above could occur.

I CAN’T CONCEIVE AGAIN Good day, Doc. I need your advice.

I am 32 years. I have two children but I can’t conceive again although l used family planning contraceptive injection seven months ago.

Asabe Mamman Kano

It is either you still took the injection seven months ago or you stopped it seven months ago. It is too early to say you have difficulty in conceiving. Are you meeting regularly with your spouse?

We normally advise couples to wait for one year of regular intercourse before a diagnosis of infertility is made, followed by appropriate investigation and treatment. Though there are exceptional cases, we may not wait for one year.

Instances of such cases include women above 35 years. You may need to wait a little bit more but ensure adequate sexual exposure.

FEELING UNUSUAL PAINS I’ve been experiencing pain and discomfort in my penis. I went for a test in a qualified hospital in Lagos and was diagnosed to have yeast infection.

I was given drugs but to no avail.

Sometimes I see a whitish discharge after urination. Please, what test can I do again?

Is it a whitish discharge or pus? Any discharge even before urination? From the complaints, it is likely to be more than yeast infection. I will rather think of a sexually transmitted infection (STI) or urinary tract infection (UTI). Either way, urgent and thorough treatment is required. Investigations to be done include midstream urine for microscopy,

I will suggest you see an urologist for treatment.

Most likely it is fungi infection. Do a swab test and local antifungal will do. You can visit your family physician.

usic and dance are very important to the African way of life. Beyond being a simple means of artistic expression, dances are sacred, holding deeply symbolic meanings and significance.

In Southeastern Nigeria, the Atilogwu dance is reverred as a strong cultural symbol. The name stems from the belief that bewitched or magic potions had to be involved if the children of the village would have to perform so exuberantly and energetically, while making it look so effortless. The tempo of the dance matches the tempo of the music, which is dependent on the beat of the drum and “ogene,” a metal gong instrument.

Anambra State. Atilogwu is a strong dance which literally means “Is this magic?” and combines elements of gymnastics with footstomping rhythms and brilliant colours. It is performed by young men and women who undergo intense training before presenting the dance in public. Once approved, the dance is performed during important festivals and great social occasions. In fact, Atilogwu has become a celebrated signature of Nigerian culture, performed around the world. During the dance festival, exotic dishes created from Nigerian recipes are served spectators who grace the occasion to savour the beauty of the dance.

The Atilogwu dance has been elevated to a dazzling art form, particularly by the Igbo in

Benefits of waterleaf

BY Grace Danjuma

W

aterleaf is an herbaceous annual and perennial plant with light green edible leafs. Waterleaf is used in the preparation of slimy soups and stews to complement, most times, a starch main dish. The leaf can also be eaten raw in salads and sometimes used okra soup as a colouring agent. Waterleaf is a rich source of vitamins, lipids and protein.

Waterleaf consumption has a benefiting effect on the neurons in the cerebrum and may enhance cognitive ability.

Improving the habit of taking waterleaf can delay the onset of heart disease and stroke. It exhibits a range of biological and pharmacological effects, activating such fungal and anti-bacterial properties.

A mixture made from waterleaf and alligator pepper is used to treat hypertension.

Water leaf as a green vegetable contains large amounts of anti-oxidants which wash away toxins and free radicals from our systems before they can cause any harm.

A water leaf rich diet is recommended for stroke and heart disease patients because, like most vegetables, it’s completely cholesterol-free and rich in fibre. Now, you have solid reasons why you should eat green vegetables, especially water leaf.

Perfect look with

Concealer These days, it is rare to find a woman who doesn’t use a concealer as part of her daily beauty routine. With dark circles, blemishes and generally uneven skin tone taking over our faces, a concealer is one of the most important beauty products to apply in concealing dark and uneven areas. But then it is one thing to apply it, it is another to apply it properly. Here are the basic ways to use a concealer:

BY Aishatu Shallangwa

Concealer as high lighter: A concealer can be used to help highlight the eyebrows to a perfect finish. However, it should not be overused, or else one’s look will be smeared.

Concealer as a polish.

After all the make-up, a concealer should be applied last around the eye and the lower cheekbone, which is naturally a lighter region of the face. Then, a light powder can be applied to perfect your beauty.

Apply before foundation: Apply a concealer before your foundation to help even your face and get better and smoother result.

A concealer is surely a perfect make-up product for the real woman.

Keep being beautiful and stay flawless.
