He said, “The police will also investigate the matter thoroughly and bring the perpetrators to book.”

WHAT HAPPENS IN YOUR BRAIN WHEN YOU LOSE FOCUS?

WHAT HAPPENS IN YOUR BRAIN WHEN YOU LOSE FOCUS? Our brains are built to treat distraction as a threat. Here are six ways to trick your brain back into focusing. If you’ve ever been in mid-conversation at lunch only to lose your train of thought when your cell phone buzzed, a new study  published in  Nature Communications  offers an explanation of what’s happening in your brain to cause this. Neuroscientist Adam Aron from the University of California San Diego and postdoctoral scholar Jan Wessel found that the subthalamic nucleus (STN)–the brain system that is involved in interrupting or stopping movement in our bodies–also interrupts cognition.

Popular musician 2face Idibia has denied news making the rounds that he diverted cash generated at a special fund raising concert tagged, ‘Eargasm’ into his personal account. The multiple-award winning singer refuted the claims in an interview while reacting to questions raised, saying it was insane for anyone to think he would bring himself so low as to divert money meant for the downtrodden. He said, “My attention is focused more on the individuals and organizations concerned with providing support for IDPs; people who murmur about hidden agenda don’t matter. If they are pessimists and haters then they need to be saved from themselves.” Read also:   VIDEO BAN: Chidi Mokeme mocks APC as Lai says he was misquoted (Video) Continuing, 2face also noted that since 2012 the concert has been doing its bit to provide an avenue for people to donate to Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) and help alleviate their suffering. “​We launched ‘million voices for peace’ project in 2
