BBNaija's Laycon reveals he has 'Sickle Cell', making him and Erica trend on Twitter.

By -


 Big Brother Naija housemate, Laycon has revealed that he has a milder symptom of the sickle cell anaemia - the SC genotype.


 


He explained on the reality show that he has haemoglobin that carries symptoms similar to those of Sickle Cell disease, but milder.


 


According to Laycon: “My blood group is Sickle Cell, I don’t like to tell people my genotype because I feel they will think I’m sick.”


 


Responding, Dorathy said Laycon’s genotype could be the reason for his slim frame.


 


“Guess that is why you are thin,” Dorathy said.


 


Nigerians have gone on Twitter to react to this revelation, causing the hashtag #LayconIsSc to trend.


 


A number of people brought back the body-shaming incident with Erica and used the opportunity to call her out afresh, making Erica trend too.

  Nadal, aiming for a 10th title in Rome and 13th at Roland Garros, was thrown off balance by the Argentine’s energy and shot-making. The delayed 2020 French Open serves off on Monday and the preparation of World No.2 and clay court specialist, Rafael Nadal, was thrown off course on Saturday in Italy when he was deservedly beaten in the Italian Open quarter final by Argentina’s Diego Schwartzman 6-2 7-5. Nadal, aiming for a 10th title in Rome and 13th at Roland Garros, was thrown off balance by the Argentine’s energy and shot-making while his own first serve percentage let him down. The abiding picture of the match in Rome was that of Nadal’s father applauding the diminutive Schwartzman after the deserved victory. That was Schwartzman’s first victory in 10 meetings over the clay specialist and the best he has played against any of the top players in the world. Speaking at the post-match press conference, the 28-year-old, ranked 15th in the world, said, “For sure it’s my best match ...
