It’s been an amazing and epic journey towards achieving the most ambitious three million metric tonnes-capacity Dangote urea fertilizer plant in Africa and one of the largest in the world. Today, I joined eminent Nigerians in congratulating our brother and friend, Alhaji Aliko Dangote, on the commissioning of this remarkable and inspiring self-sustaining food economic transformation in Nigeria and across Africa. _ Nigeria is known for being a significant importer of fertiliser. This historic endeavour has various dimensions and represents the gradual abolition of our country's hooked dependency on fertiliser product imports. This project, which is one of the finest advancements in making Africa self-sufficient in food production, should be celebrated by us all. Our farmers have recently suffered as a result of a fertilizer supply constraint and a price increase. Significantly, food commodity costs are pushing families into poverty and endangering human survival. _ With this shift, ...

Welcome to Express Health's Q&A Scientists have discovered a new variant of coronavirus which is a hybrid of the Delta and Omicron strains, Deltacron. Denis Kinane, a world leading immunologist and founder of Cignpost diagnostics, revealed how the UK should react. What is Deltacron - should we be worried?  The main elements of the Deltacron variant are derived from Delta, but its ‘spike protein’, which allows the virus to gain entry to human cells, comes from the Omicron variant. In terms of being ‘worried’, this is perhaps not the best stance to take. Caution is perhaps a better approach than worry or fear: measured approaches are more conducive to a viable strategy going forward. In addition, we are noting with our current ‘presumably omicron’ testing, what appears to be a dichotomy in patient response, some have high viral load and infectivity for approximately six days and others still have high viral load and infectivity after 10 days. Much of this variation could be due t...
