WHO on world's drunkest countries...Check out where Nigerians are and the leading drunk of them all



Alright... when I first saw this , I was filled with unimaginable laughter. World's Drunkest country? You might, just as much as I did, ask,'' Why the drunkest countryin the world?''. After I studied the report, I realised that it serves various purposes. We can all learn from that too.



 
So here goes...

 The world's drunkest countries...perhaps you may have an idea of the country that should be on top of that corporate ladder of  non-teetotallers. Well, some people have said it is South Africa, others think it  is Gabon.



Well, Nigerians perhaps think they should be crowned the drunkest of them all; I thought so too, but Nigerians aren't left behind anyway. According to pictorial demographic report presented by WHO, we are among the second set of countries who are hopelessly drowned in the sea of alcohol too.

According to the reports,East Africa and countries in the middle east are  the most sober of all the countres of the world. Reasons could be predicated on strict religious obligations: abstinence from alcohol.

Countries surrounding Nigeria are better teetotallers than  the South Americans and The U.S.
So, according to the report, Ghanaians are drier than the U.S when it comes to alcohol consumption.
Yes, now you know. Ghanaian are more sanctimonious than the U.S dwellers and Nigerians



Getting to the top of the ladder, I hope you still remember the countries at the ladder's base? Good.
Here we have South Africans, Nigerians, Australians, and Canadians close to the top. You may think these people don't know where their limits are; well yes,  they obviously don't know.


What  then do we have to say about the Lords of the rum and king of  it all? These ones have a knack for not knowing where their limits are too. Picturing the country with such devavstation already? Picture no further. They are non other than Russia, Ukraine, and Belarius with Russia finally crowned the King of the drunkest countries in the world. Little wonder when vodka and rum get mentioned, our minds wonder to Russia.LOL

How to use 'many a' and 'a great deal of' in a sentence. How to pronounce 'impasse'

Good morning KIB  earthlings. Lets get down to brass tacks. Let's look at the use of verbs. Yesterday someone brought a statement to me and enquired if it were correct. 'many a fellow knows the truth' Many a driver ploughs this road daily' 'Many a teacher doesn't know how to  English'. All these sentences are correct. According to Oxford dictionary, Many a: ( formal: always used with a singular noun and a singular verb) means a large number of something. E.g many a young person has experimented with drugs.   So,  don't pluralise anything in the sentence because there is an 'A' already. 'Many a teachers like to flog their students ' is wrong. 'A great deal' How do you use 'a great deal'? A great deal takes a singular verb. E.g A great deal of bananas is planted in the north. 'A great deal' takes a singular verb.  Finally,  the pronunciation of impasse is /'ampa:s/ Not (impas) It's not Enem

Is it 'off head', 'off hand' 'off pat' or 'by heart'?

I love all the new students in my class. You guys are awesome by the way. 😀😀 Today. I want to give you a better expression for saying that 'you know something very well'. #Offhead? There is nothing like offhead. 'I know it off head' is wrong. #Offhand? What does offhand mean? It mean without previous thought or consideration. Just like saying 'on the spur of moment' , 'immediately', 'spontaneously'. So, do you just know something offhand? No...not at all. You can say something offhand, do anything offhand but then it seems weird to say ' I know the answer offhand'. It is normal 'to say the answer offhand'. Do you get my drift? People don't know anything spontaneously, rather, they  say what they already know, spontaneously. Now to the final expression #HaveSomethingOffPat? It means to know something or be able to do something perfectly; be perfect master of something . So rather than say, I know it offha
