United Nigeria Airlines builds health centre in Ekiti

United Nigeria Airlines built and handed over a community health centre, a solar-powered borehole and a perimeter fence to the Ekiti State Government in Aso-Ayegunle, Ado-Ekiti.

The researchers observed no toxicity in the normal cells tested, and no acute toxicity or deaths among mice monitored for 14 days after receiving a dose of 2,000 milligrams per kilogram. They cautioned that laboratory findings do not prove the product cures cancer in people.
