Ilorin - People with low sperm count have been
advised to eat more goat and foods that contain
different nutrients to boost their fertility.
Professor of Applied Zoology, Stephen
Oluwagbemiga, gave the advice at the Annual
Lecture of National Association of Zoology
Students, University of Ilorin, in Ilorin on Friday.
Oluwagbemiga, of the Landmark University, Omu-
Aran, Kwara, who cautioned Nigerians against
feeding too much on junk foods, said the advice
was necessary because many people were deficient
in calcium.
He said inadequate calcium in the body could
adversely affect how peoples’ hearts and other parts
of the body worked/functioned.
Oluwagbemiga stressed the need for people to
increase their calcium in-take by eating crayfish,
snails and biscuit bones.
Speaking on: Relevance of Zoology in Contemporary
Nigeria; he said Zoologists had been involved in
solving some of the nation’s health problems
amongst which are guinea worm infection, sleeping
sickness and mosquito bites.
Kwara State’s Commissioner for Information and
Communications, Alhaji Mahmud Ajeigbe, praised
the students for organising the lecture, and urged
them to face their studies.
Ajeigbe also charged them to cultivate the habit of
reading widely in order to excel in all fields of
human endeavours.
