It can be very tricky because a transparent ornament, with the shape of a diamond can easily be mistaken for one. Worry no more as we would be letting you on the 4’c’s to bear in mind when buying diamonds. If there is one fabric that never goes wrong when rightly matched,

What you need to know about diamonds by PRISCA EKOKUJE-EMADU & HAFSAH ABUBAKAR MATAZU
A
s the popular saying goes, “diamond is a woman’s best friend.’’ One thing that comes to mind when trying to buy diamonds or any other kind of ornament is quality. Not everybody can identify original diamonds; hence some need some form of assistance when trying to purchase one. In getting diamond accessories, here are four rules to bear in mind. - Colour: Diamonds are known to be colourless. Even when placed on a white background, the stone is still loose and colourless. However, diamonds can be seen in other colours. - Clarity: This refers to the visual characteristics of a diamond, which comprises of both the internal and external parts of
the piece. These are called inclusions and blemishes. - Cut: The diamond cut is the most d important. This gives it a glittering sparkle and prismatic colour. In a well-cut diamond, light d enters the top as if it were absorbing light and spitting it out in fireworks. - Carat: Carat weight is a widely mistaken it component of diamond buying. Carat is a unit ne of weight measurement. It does not determine how dazzling or scintillating the diamond is. It only determines the weight and cost of the d diamond. However, the carat of your diamond does determine how attractive it is. When next you want to buy a diamond nd accessory, bear these four simple rules in mind and you are sure to get a priceless piece.

She is from Sanyinna Tambuwal Local Government Area of Sokoto State and the second among 10 siblings. She spoke on her childhood aspirations, how she met her husband, and other interesting issues.
Mariya Aminu Tambuwal
Keeping life simple Educational Background I attended Sanyinna Model Primary School and proceeded to Unity Girls’ Secondary School, Illela, Sokoto State. From there I moved to the Shehu Shagari College of Education for a diploma in Law. After my diploma in Law, I started in my husband’s law firm as his personal assistant. That was where my career actually began, but I couldn’t actualise my dreams because my husband joined politics; and you know how politics is. I had to sacrifice my career to give him all the maximum and necessary support he needed from me as a wife. Growing up Growing up was very exciting. I have wonderful and fond memories of my childhood. I was the favourite of all my beloved brothers and sisters. I grew up in Sanyinnan. My dad is late, but I will always remember him and cherish the wonderful moments he gave us as his children. He gav gave me the best. May his soul rest in peace.

TAMBARI SUNDAY, AU G U S T 7, 2016
MARIYA AMINU TAMBUWAL // My philosophy My philosophy of life is simple - One has to stay low and be humble, keep it simple and don’t expect too much from people. Also, enjoy what you have, no matter how little. In life, everything should be appreciated. A simple life is a beautiful life. Best holiday destination My favourite holiday destination is London. It is a diverse and exciting city with some of the world’s best sight-seeing attractions and activities. I also love all the Arab countries, especially Saudi Arabia. How I relax Well, l relax by retiring to bed early. For me, going to bed to rest at night after the stress of the day is the best form of relaxation anyone can ask for. Best sports Interestingly, I love football. I enjoy watching it with the kids. Favourite colour, weather and car Green is my best colour. I enjoy the rainy season. As for cars, I don’t have any favourite as long as it takes me from one place to another. My Favourite meal I love all the traditional delicacies, but moi-moi is my best. I wouldn’t mind eating it all the time. Oh, I also love watermelon; its one fruit I can’t do without. My definition of style As far as I am concerned, style is putting on what fits you perfectly. Style should be what makes you look good and at the same time comfortable. I love the abaya. I feel fully covered wearing the abaya or the Moroccan gown. These two fashion pieces can never let me down when it comes to style. Favourite designer I have so many fashion designers, but Hanayen Abaya in Dubai is one designer I really cherish because of the concepts he gives his abaya. Back here in Nigeria, the Afrik Abaya is one designer I’m beginning to like because of their creativity. Favourite perfume, shoes and bags I love Oud collections. They are my best perfumes, be it Arabian, French or any other. As long as its Oud, you can be sure I will love it. I love Salvatore Ferragamo bags. For shoes, Giuseppe Zanotti is classy and simple for my liking.
Hajiya Mariya with husband and children
Words from mum that stuck My mum taught me to have trust in myself, be selfconfident and always down-to-earth. And that has really helped shape who I am today. Favourite day of the week Friday is a very short day, and as a Muslim I have so much respect for the day. Beauty routine I don’t have any beauty routine in particular, but I exfoliate my face with honey, milk and lemon once in a week. Staying fit Well, I don’t have any secret to staying fit, but I maintain a healthy diet by drinking a lot of water and taking a lot of fruits. Role of women in the society Psychologically, women are not equal to men, but women have a better role to play in the society as they are the bedrock of the society. As the saying goes, “To educate a woman is to educate the nation.” Achievements as a wife and mother My achievements in life are numerous to mention. However, my best achievement so far is raising my kids to the admiration of the society. My first child, who takes after his father, will soon graduate as a lawyer. Very soon, my second daughter will be getting married, which is the joy of every mother. I have also impacted the lives of many women in my locality and the state in general.
INTERESTINGLY, I LOVE FOOTBALL. I ENJOY WATCHING IT WITH THE KIDS.. TAMBARI SUNDAY, AU G U S T 7, 2016

Lapel; the art of manliness by PRISCA EKOKUJE-EMADU
E
veryday fashion is re-evolving and new ways of remaining on the fashion radar emanates. Women are known to adorn their attire with brooches, today men have also found a means of doing the same, only that this time it is done with lapels. The male folk now rock this accessory on both formal and traditional outfits. Some wear it as a replacement for where the tie or bow tie is worn, while others just place it on their chest. This is one accessory that we must confess looks great when worn by men. If you are yet to join this new style of dressing, then the time is now. Lapels are the new way to show manliness.

Waterlogged streets usually associated with the rainy season can be a very good nest for fungal infections against the feet. This week, we’ll be giving some simple tips on how to care for your feet. - Keep your feet dry. It is better to wear shoes than sandals or slippers because they protect the
feet in full. One easy way that infection can spread in the feet is when it is wet. - In case your ur feet are wet due to rain, when you get home, quickly wash them with clean waterr and an antiseptic soap. - Soaking the e feet in water and liquid soap and scrubbing is good during durring ring the rainy season. - After scrubbing, apply a foot moisturiser that is suitable for your skin type. - Having wounds on the feet during the rainy season poses more damage than during the dry season. To prevent easy access for infectious diseases, it is best to treat injuries and avoid contact with rain. - Always cut the nails on the feet as having long nails could create a home for infection. - Always wear clean pairs of socks and change when they become wet.

CAN I STILL HAVE A CHILD AT 46? I am forty-six-year-old with five children. My last child was four years ago the baby died after four days of birth. I missed my period last month. If found to be pregnant, is it safe and can I deliver a child at my present age? Hadiza, Kano
Y
es, you can deliver by yourself since you have delivered five times before. But you have to do your antenatal preferably under an obstetrician and ensure delivery in a hospital with good supervision. The answer would have been no if this is your first baby that is an elderly primigravida. Since you have delivered more than five times you are a grand multiparous woman. One of the challenges faced is the issue of postpartum haemorrhage due to uterine atony that is excessive bleeding after delivery of the baby and placental. Proper steps must be taken in labour and immediately after delivery to prevent this. Let me emphasize that there are other problems that has to be looked out for during pregnancy. Women over forty years and are pregnant are at risk of these conditions. Medical
complications like hypertensive disorders of pregnancy and diabetes mellitus must be look out for. Do not assume that you have no complaints or you have done it several times before you must try and attend antenatal clinic regularly. Your blood pressure will be checked and action taken early if there is any rise in blood pressure. Also the risk of diabetes mellitus in pregnancy increases with age. After this delivery do not make attempt to give birth again, ensure you seek family planning options and adopt one.

Hepatitis carrier; any way out? I am hepatitis B positive carrier. I could not afford medication. Please I will like to be free or have complete treatment of HBV antigen. Is there a way out? Idris Bauchi
I
t is unfortunate that the treatment for Hepatitis B is very expensive. Let me also mention that it is not curative but minimize the chances of complications like liver cirrhosis developing. While looking at possibility of getting for proper treatment, I will encourage you not to panic. Being a carrier of hepatitis B virus does not equate to the complications occurring. If it a place where the NHIS – National Health Insurance Scheme is well developed this would not have been a problem at all. Though we appreciate that it has started in Nigeria but the speed of maturing
to a proper NHIS to all Nigerian is still slow. The bulk of the masses that need it most are yet to be captured. Health is wealth. I will use this medium to implore our erudite minister of health to bring in policy through the legislative and the executive so that our NHIS can go to the next level so that people like Idris could have hope and focus on more productive things. In case any good meaning Nigerian want to support this young student in the treatment you can contact the editor of Tambari please.
BOILS ON SENSITIVE AREAS OF MY BODY My sexual organ is small and I have boils on it. When I meet with my partner I release too quickly. Please what do I do? Mahmood, Okene
C
oncerning the boils you may be having a sexually transmitted infection. You may need to see your family physician but preferably a Urologist for treatment for both you and your partner. The issue of premature ejaculation will also be addressed at the same time. Well the size of the sexual organ is not the most
important thing, as most times the size of manhood does not equate to sexual satisfaction. Though there are cream said to increase the size and also plastic surgery but I will advise that it may not be necessary. Discuss the issue with your family physician and to educate you on how to satisfy your partner sexually rather than focus on size.
When can I get pregnant? How long after miscarriage can I get pregnant? Chichi, Abuja You can get pregnant after three months at least. This would enable you to recover from the last pregnancy and also allow menses to return.
Please, we encourge all who send questions or contributions to include at least their first name and town or city. Readers are also advised to copy the Tambari email address above while writing in. Thank you - Editor TAMBARI SUNDAY, AU G U S T 7, 2016

The Sharo Cultural
Festival by HAFSAH ABUBAKAR MATAZU
T
he Sharo (flogging) festival is held by the Jafur Fulani twice a year - during the dry season and Eid el-Kabir. The festival is a test of bravery in which young men flog each other to the point of utmost endurance. It also shows that a man has come of age and is ready to get married. The Sharo festival begins with bare-chested contestants, usually young, unmarried men, approaching the centre ring, accompanied by an entourage of young girls. Following this, the challenger comes to the centre of the stage brandishing a strong, supple cane to scare his opponent. After a display of intense competition, which attracts excitement at its highest pitch, the flogging begins. The
TAMBARI SUNDAY, AU G U S T 7, 2016
challenger flogs his opponent without an ounce of sympathy. The opponent withstands the flogging, sometimes drawing blood, without wincing or showing pain. Just like every other contemporary game, the Sharo festival also has referees who are saddled with the responsibility to ensure fair flogging. The opponent is motivated with the support of family members, friends and well-wishers and their readiness to offer gifts and other bounties to him if he was able to withstand the pain till the end. The festival, which is usually accompanied with drumming, singing and dancing, is very lively. With additional information from the internet
