Davido shows off his new mansion

Image
Singer Davido is definitely living up to his 30 billion in his account claim. In a recent post on Instagram, the Omo Baba Olowo showed off his new crib and from the looks of it, he is super proud of his latest achievement. Trust his fans to hail him. At age 25, Davido, in monetary success, has gained more than millions of Nigerians far older than he his. The singer who never fails to rhyme about his material wealth left a lot of fans wishing to be him after he showed the gorgeous house he built with his own money. Many say Davido is the master of cockiness, however his behaviour is justified. At least with the house news he dropped on the internet, it is safe to say he puts his money where his mouth is. But money is not all Davido is good for, the singer is currently on tour and has been shutting every city he steps into down. We guess having a weighty bank account and being a master singer is the only way to truly live like Davido. Source NAIJ.COM

The surreal video became so popular that it  "broke" YouTube's play counter , exceeding the maximum possible number of views (2,147,483,647), and forcing the company to  rewrite its code . But the song has now been overtaken by another music video - Wiz Khalifa and Charlie Puth's  See You Again . The heart-wrenching ballad has now been streamed 2,895,373,709 times; beating Psy's current count of 2,894,426,475 views. Adding it up, that means See You Again has been streamed for a total of 21,759 years.

Four dangerous foods that slowly destroy the heart you must stop eating

Image
The heart is a muscular organ in humans and other animals, which pumps blood through the blood vessels of the circulatory system. Blood provides the body with oxygen and nutrients, as well as assists in the removal of metabolic wastes. In humans, the heart is located between the lungs, in the middle compartment of the chest. The human heart is situated in the middle mediastinum, at the level of thoracic vertebrae T5-T8. A double-membraned sac called the pericardium surrounds the heart and attaches to the mediastinum. The Heart is very delicate hence the reason we take a lot of precaution when it comes to our diet and what may likely affect it.You may not even realize it, but chances are good that you eat at least one thing that’s terrible for your heart on a daily basis. Some many deaths are caused by heart attack and nearly every single case is caused by one of three things, or a combination of them; poor eating habits, lack of exercise, and chronic stress.
