Controversial OAP, Daddy Freeze has taken to his Instagram page to make no direct accusations but made an insinuation about Covenant University and the founder of the institution, Bishop David Oyedepo.
Freeze who is making these insinuations, is leaving conclusions open for his followers to interpret as they wish.
The OAP, who regularly criticizes the teachings of a number of pastors, shared a photo collage showing a number of powerful people posing with their hands steepled in the shape of a triangle.
The likes of Bishop Oyedepo, Donald Trump, Michelle Obama, Angela Merkel, Michelle Obama, Steve Harvey, were all in the photo collage with the same hand gesture.
See the Photo below…
Well, a lot of his followers interpreted the above picture collage to mean that he’s accusing them of throwing up the Illuminati sign.
But some others pointed out to the Radio presenter, that the gesture could also be a pose to show confidence.
The 42-year-old OAP also shared another photo showing the aerial view of Bishop Oyedepo’s school, Covenant University.
The spot on which the institution stands was circled with a red marker to show the school designed in the form of the Star of David, a symbol of Judaism.
He then shared a screenshot of a Wikipedia definition of Satanism, which happens to have the Star of David inside a circle as the symbol for Satanism.
He wrote;
” Wordless post.”
In another post, he shared the same star and said the Bible never referred to it as the Star of David, instead it is referred to in the bible as the star belonging to satan.
Following the drama that trailed Ghanaian actress, Fella Makafui recently as her ex-sugar daddy took back the car gift he’d acquired
for her, it’s being revealed newly that Makafui allegedly had three abortions.
The ex-sugar boyfriend was filmed recently in public taking back the car he bought her after she was said to have shared a loved-up video of herself kissing her new boyfriend, rapper Medika. ICYMI
According to a report by GhanaCelebrities, Fella had reportedly been giving her ex many excuses as to why they could not be together. Even when he saw evidence of her dating Medikal, she just brushed it off, claiming they were shooting a movie together. But he eventually discovered the real truth and has decided to end whatever they had.
The report further stated that Fella has allegedly carried out as many as three abortions with the guy as she kept postponing their coming together as a couple.
Though the abortion claim is yet to be fully ascertained, the report included a screenshot of a conversation between a purported girlfriend of the sugar daddy’s friend as making the claim.

A passenger who was caught up in a bus accident managed to take somewhat weird before and after selfies – his selfies has caused a frenzy online with people having mixed feelings over it.
Taking one selfie prior to climbing aboard, the unnamed man then took a second photo of himself in a very similar position – this time, however, his face was covered in dust and an upturned bus can be seen in the background with a number of passengers standing around.
Since the photos were shared on Twitter, there’s been mixed feelings towards it… Some finding humour in it…
“I shouldn’t be laughing. Why am I laughing? This was a trap.”
… to others taking it more seriously,
“Why am I not seeing the funny side to this? The man just survived an accident and I can’t help but wonder if everyone is alright.”

Five longtime female friends who were bridesmaids at each other’s weddings have each won their state Senate races in this year’s midterm elections in the United States.
The women who are all Democratic candidates — Tammy Story, Faith Winter, Jessie Danielson, Brittany Pettersen and Kerry Donovan — all swept their state Senate in Colorado, People reported Wednesday.
The women, who call themselves “The Fab Five” helped flip the state Senate to a Democratic majority for the first time in five years, the publication noted.
Danielson, who currently serves as member of the Colorado House of Representatives, told the magazine:
We were all in it together.
Each of the women said they helped the others face negative criticism and slander during their campaigns.
Winter said:
Through the campaign, the five of us were very supportive of each other. We had several text chains where we would check in with one another and see how we were doing.
If a particularly bad ad or piece of mail came out, we would reassure each other on the text chain, ‘Have you seen the mail? It’s so awful, how are you doing?’
The friends are among the more than 2,000 women who are gearing up to take office in state legislatures nationwide next year.

Veteran Yoruba actress, Sola Sobowale in a recent interview has revealed that God ordained her to be an actress.
In an interview with Pulse on Thursday, Sola Sobowale took out time to explain her role in the recently released movie ‘King of Boys’, which was directed by Kemi Adetiba.
Speaking on the movie, Sola who played the main character referred to Kemi Adetiba as someone who brings the best out of you.
“Kemi is a killer, I almost died. Kemi is a slave driver but thank God. She would say to me: ‘Do you want to look bad on that screen at the end of the day? We thank God for the result. However, what baffles me is when she commends a scene and says ‘that was nice, that was beautiful’, but says we should have another take and before you know it, we would have had 10 or 15 takes.
“I remember a particular scene we were shooting and I was already in action and I heard a distant voice saying ‘Get Aunty S a chair; get her a bottle of water’. I asked what was going on and Kemi said ‘Aunty S, you are fainting’. I sat down and didn’t know I was shaking vigorously. That is the kind of director Kemi is — the type who sees the work and sees the person. Other locations, maybe I would have been dead by now.
“I got the King of Boys script after a lunch with Kemi Adetiba. After The Wedding Party, I got a call from Kemi Adetiba — she calls me Aunty S. She said ‘Where are you?’ and I told her I was home. She asked me to join her for lunch somewhere in Victoria Island and I joined her because I love food and I love her personality.”
Speaking on her acting career, she said: “This is what God has ordained me to do”.
She also stated that she thanked Adetiba for giving her the “opportunity to shine, for the whole wide world to know this is what Sola knows how to do best”.
The ex-sugar daddy of budding Ghanaian actress, Fella Makafui, was recently filmed in public collecting back the car he bought her after she was said to have shared a loved-up video of herself kissing her new boyfriend, rapper, Medikal.

@sunshinechi1 on the microblogging platform, said her husband is a huge fan of Formula 1 and had always talked about the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix so she flew him first class to Abu Dhabi for his 30th birthday.
Her quite impressive act has earned her the title of “wife goals” on social media.
A 1-year-old girl has miraculously survived being crushed after she fell off from her mother’s hand, before a train passed over her in India . But she survived without a scratch.
The child’s parents had just disembarked from the train when she slipped off her mum’s hand and landed on the track. Her parents couldn’t get her out because a train passed almost immediately.
Miraculously, the train didn’t hurt the child as she landed in the gap between the floor and the track. She was picked up immediately after the pain passed, tearful but unhurt.
The incident happened at a station in Mathura, Uttar Pradesh.
Lovely Nigerian couple, Anita and Asuquo will be tying the knots this weekend, starting with a traditional wedding in Akwa Ibom today.
Taking to Facebook, the lovely bride-to-be, Anita shared how she used to make fun of Asuquo over his political views, aspiration and disposition.
According to her, she never liked him and one time went into his inbox to tell him that he is a complete joke after she spotted his campaign posters.
Read below,
He was my friend on Facebook but we never chatted, even though I saw some of his posts, I took no notice.
All these political people, nki dogho do interested.
I never liked him (nki bata bad anye)
I remember making fun of him with a friend once…
One day I saw a poster of him, he was contesting for a position; I felt it was a complete joke because I knew he wouldn’t win at that time. So I Went to his inbox to tell him bluntly what I felt about him and his poster.
That was the first time we chatted. He asked for my number, I RELUCTANTLY gave him my “business number.” I prayed he wouldn’t call.
That night, oga sent a love text, I rolled my eyes in contempt (mme ani do ayem). In my mind he wasn’t up to the standard I dated or had in mind to date, I mean, I was even quiting a relationship I called ‘standard’.
I didnt know God was in a corner laughing.
God’s ways clearly differs from man’s ways!
Thereafter the baba called and I just knew I had entered one chance!
I finally met him on my sister’s wedding day and he WILLINGLY paid for all my pictures, he stayed with me till the very end. I was amazed at his kindness… I had found a diamond in the rough.
Overtime, I have learnt not to judge a book by its cover.
I have learnt what it means to love and be loved unconditionally.
I have learnt about sacrifice, forgiveness and hope.
I have learnt what it means to be courageous and determined against all odds.
We’ve been termed an unlikely pair with little connecting interests but we’ve been through the hurdles of a relationship even though we were a thousand miles apart.
We have trusted and believed in God and each other.
God has blessed me and I am thankful.
One year and 3 months later we will be saying ‘I do’ and spending a lifetime together.
I’m saying “I do” to my friend, cheer Master and partner in everi everi!!!!
Dear friends share in our joy, be happy for us, pray for us.
It’s today 22nd and 24th of November.

Nigerian singing sensation, Tiwa Savage has revealed that she only looks beautiful by the help of make-ups and push-up bras.
The MTV EMAs winner stated that in spite of the glitz and glamour she displays on social media, she sometimes feels depressed by low self-esteem.
She said sometimes she is intimidated by the glamour on social media. In her own words,
“I get a lot of messages from young girls who are depressed with low self-esteem because they don’t feel pretty like the social media girls they see every day and my heart breaks because I feel like that too sometimes.
“We are all in this together, I’m not perfect, and not the prettiest, sexiest, richest but I’ll remain kind and seek after God’s heart because none of the others matters to Him.
“Ultimately God’s approval is all we need”, she said.
She added that contrary to public belief, she hardly sees herself as a pretty woman.
“Some people are born beautiful, flawless skin, long curly hair, fair skin but some of us grew up looking at the world’s definition of beauty and found ourselves not fitting into that standard but with the help of makeup, filters and push up bras we feel a little closer.
“What happens when you take all that off and you stare at yourself in the mirror, do you still think you are beautiful?
“You should because you are and when we meet our creator face to face it’s those with the kindest hearts that will stand as most beautiful.
“So while we work on the outside make sure we work on our hearts.”
Detectives investigating the fatal shooting of 26-year-old Abraham Badru in Hackney, London have arrested a woman on suspicion of conspiracy to murder.
The late Abraham was the son of House of Representatives member, Hon. Dolapo Badru, representing Lagos Island, Lagos state.
Abraham Badru was shot near his home in the UK. The 18-year-old female suspect has been arrested today, Thursday, 22 November (today) and remains in custody.
A £20,000 reward remains on offer for anyone with information leading to the arrest and prosecution of those responsible for Abraham’s murder.
Police were called on Sunday, 25 March to Ferncliff Road, E8, following reports of gunshots heard. Abraham, a personal trainer, was found suffering from shotgun injuries and died at the scene from a shotgun wound to the chest.
Detective Chief Inspector Noel McHugh, leading the investigation from the Homicide and Major Crime Command, said: “It has been eight months since Abraham was gunned down on the street in Hackney and we have been working tirelessly to find out what happened that night and bring those responsible to justice. We have followed up more than 600 lines of enquiry and viewed 200 hours of CCTV footage.
“We have been piecing together the details of Abraham’s life and making good progress and that has led to this arrest today. The arrest is as the result of a separate line of enquiry, not linked to the rape trial Abraham previously gave evidence at.
“However, despite the progress we are making, there are still significant gaps and we urgently need the help of Abraham’s friends and anyone else with information to come forward. There remains at least five potential witnesses on the street that night who have not come forward and there may be others who have information they don’t think important but could be crucial for us in filling in the picture of Abraham’s life.
“We believe Abraham had a number of girlfriends and we are keen to know who they were. It is possible that he may have been seeing someone who was in another relationship, and I’m appealing for anyone with this sort of information to contact me.
“Did Abraham confide in you about his worries? Did you notice any change in his behaviour? I know that this could be tricky, but I assure you we are solely interested in piecing together Abraham’s life.
“We also really need to hear from anyone who saw a male cycling in the area around the time of the murder on a white bicycle – this could be the killer. Help us catch him.”
Moments after the shooting, a black male believed to be wearing a black Puffa-type jacket made off from the scene on foot, before getting on a bicycle; he had rucksack on his back. The bicycle is described as white and didn’t have any lights.
Officers believe there are still a number of witnesses to be traced and previously released a timeline of Abraham’s final movements in a bid for them to come forward.
The November 15, 2018, attack on Wizkid’s bodyguard, Roy Emmanuel Obinna, at club DNA in Lagos, had to do with the debt incurred by the music star, an Igbosere Magistrates Court has heard.
The revelation was made, yesterday, during the arraignment of the Chairman of Poshhills Entertainment, Olufemi Olusanya, aka Femi Posh and a bouncer, David Afari, for allegedly stabbing Roy.
According to Vanguard Nigeria, the bodyguard was allegedly beaten while he was trying to pay part of Wizkid’s N15million debt. Posh, 38, and Afari 29, are facing a three-count charge bordering on conspiracy, unlawful assault and grievous bodily harm.
It was gathered that Roy, had on November 15, gone to DNA to settle the bill that his boss was owing, when he was attacked by the defendants.
It was also learned that Wizkid owed the nightclub the sum of N8million, and also a pool party bill of N7 million, which his bodyguard had gone to settle, when Posh called Afari to beat him up and also used a broken glass to injure him.
During the arraignment of the duo, the police prosecutor, Inspector Joseph Jimoh, told the court that the offences committed is punishable under sections 411, 173 and 245 of the criminal laws of Lagos State 2015.
However, the duo pleaded not guilty to the charges filed against them. Their lawyer, D. Mustapher, urged the court to admit the defendants to bail on a liberal term, as steps are already being taken to settle the matter, adding that one of the steps being taken is the footing of the complainant’s medical bills.
Consequently the Magistrate Y. O Aro-Lambo, who stood in for Magistrate O. O. Oshin, granted the defendants bail in the sum of N500,000 each. The case was thereafter adjourned till January 17, for mention.

A drunk man, identified as Ryan Dolan, walked into McDonald’s at 5 am, took off his trousers and pants and began performing the helicopter move with his pen!s in front of shocked customers and staff.
The 29-year-old man stood two metres away from the counter, then out of the blue, he removed his clothes and started “playing with his penis”, police said.
He then pulled his trousers back up again but then jumped across the front counter into the staff area and took his clothes off once more.
Fiscal Depute, Nicole Lavelle, narrated what happened in the fast food store in Edinburgh city centre, saying:
He grabbed his penis and started to play with it, pretending to serve customers. He then started dancing again, carrying out helicopter-like moves with his penis.
This went on for a few minutes before he jumped back onto the front counter, still half-naked, before pulling up his trousers and pants and leaving.
Ms Lavelle described his actions as “boisterous acts, heavily fuelled by alcohol”.
The police were called by staff, and an officer recognised Dolan from the CCTV footage of the incident. Dolan had very little recollection of the incident, however, he did have two previous convictions for “similar offences”.
The 29-year-old pleaded guilty to committing acts of public indecency at Edinburgh Sheriff Court on Wednesday. He would have been fined £750 but it was reduced to £500 because of the guilty plea. Doland will pay back the fine by £100 a month.
Former President Goodluck Jonathan has raised the alarm over a fake online version of his book, “My Transition Hours’’ which he launched to mark his 61st birthday on Tuesday.
In a tweet on Thursday, Jonathan said: “ We have just been informed that a fake document contrived by mischief makers is being passed on as the e-version and hard copy of the just launched ‘#MyTransitionHours’’’.
“ Also, note that the e-copy of #MyTransitionHours ’is not being marketed, as such, the fake online version could only have been created by those out to deceive the unsuspecting public.
“ We advise the general public to ignore such publication as the chapters and contents are not the same as the book publicly presented two days ago in Abuja. #MyTransitionHours,’’ Jonathan further tweeted.
As the cover of the book displayed to differentiate the true from the false version, he further threw more light on the difference.
Jonathan in his book accused ex-President Barack Obama of U.S of pushing for his defeat in the 2015 Presidential election.
Jonathan said Obama took unusual step by “prodding the electorate to vote for the opposition” in the election.
“On March 23, 2015, President Obama himself took the unusual step of releasing a video message directly to Nigerians all but telling them how to vote,” Mr Jonathan wrote.
“In that video, Obama urged Nigerians to open the “next chapter” by their votes. Those who understood subliminal language deciphered that he was prodding the electorate to vote for the opposition to form a new government.”
Jonathan said that the message undermined Nigerians and smacked of hypocrisy.
“The message was so condescending, it was as if Nigerians did not know what to do and needed an Obama to direct them,” he said.
The former Nigerian leader added that although Obama, in his message, said “all Nigerians must be able to cast their votes without intimidation or fear,” his government was vehemently and publicly against the postponement of the elections to enable the military defeat Boko Haram and prevent them from intimidating voters.
“This was the height of hypocrisy!” Jonathan declared.
Jonathan’s grouse with Obama went beyond the video. He narrated in the book that the actions of the then U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, especially his visit to Nigeria after the elections were rescheduled from February 2015 to March belied a plot to humiliate him.
This, he explained, was because even though the decision to postpone the elections was taken by INEC after a meeting of the Council of State, Kerry refused to accept that it was in the interest of the country and the electorate.
“In fact, John Kerry did not accept our reasons for the rescheduling.
“How can the U.S. Secretary of State know what is more important for Nigeria than Nigeria’s own government?
“How could they have expected us to conduct elections when Boko Haram controlled part of the North East and was killing and maiming Nigerians? Not even the assurance of the sanctity of May 29, 2015 handover date could calm them down. In Nigeria, the Constitution is very clear. No President can extend his tenure by one day.”
Despite the criticism that followed the decision to reschedule the election, Jonathan insisted that the decision was the right one and it paid off.
“Anyhow, the six weeks served us well. We received the military equipment we were expecting within that period and our Armed Forces commendably dealt a deserving blow on the terrorists and repossessed all territorial areas of Nigeria previously occupied by the terrorists. Boko Haram was deflated up to the point I handed over to my successor on May 29, 2015.
“We conducted the elections peacefully, even if there were issues raised about its fairness. At least, the nation was relieved that the election held peacefully and that there was no post-election violence.”
“The decision and announcement to postpone the elections were eventually made by the only body which could do so under the Constitution. I should talk briefly about the INEC here because of the insinuations that my administration muscled INEC to make the pronouncement. Of course, nothing could be farther from the truth as people came to realise.
“Yes, the posture of INEC could appear edgy, but it knew it was not ready and that the election was too important to mess up.
“The PVC shortage was everywhere. The lopsided collection of PVC caused an uproar that grew into a national din. The suspected housing of PVCs in the custody of non-INEC personnel was an issue.
There were also issues with card readers. All of these happening despite years of preparation and substantial funds made available. It was all building up to a perfect storm, but those were INEC’s problems which we were willing to help resolve.
“Even then, the security of our country was our job and the military advised as they deemed fit. Before the election was eventually rescheduled by INEC, I summoned all the Service Chiefs, the NSA, the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Director General of State Security (DG DSS), among others to get further information.
“Then I called a meeting of the Council of State and requested the heads of security services and the INEC chairman to attend. These were not apolitical, but at least they could rise above politics and represent the interest of the entire country.
“At the end of deliberations, it was agreed that the elections should be postponed for six weeks in order to create a safer environment for voters and officials on Election Day.
“Let me add that the Council of State comprises all former Presidents and Heads of State, all former chief justices of the federation, and all 36 serving State Governors who are from different political parties.
“The INEC was then directed to hold meetings with political parties while the NSA was to brief them on the security angle to the rescheduling.
“The vote in favour of the rescheduling was overwhelming. INEC thereafter announced the rescheduling of the election to the nation.
“I must add that beyond security concerns, one finds it difficult to understand how INEC or the political parties would want elections held at a time when more than 30% of the Nigerian electorate where yet to get their PVCs. This would have disenfranchised a significant portion of the electorate.
“The foreign pressure on the issue of election rescheduling was intense. They maintained the curious posture of one who had been deceived before and therefore had every reason to cede no credence to our position. But there was no reason to have such a posture.
“The United States and the United Kingdom were especially agitated. David Cameron, then the U.K. Prime Minister, called to express his concern about the election rescheduling, just as John Kerry came from the United States to express further worry. It was at best unusual and sobering. In fact, John Kerry did not accept our reasons for the rescheduling.
“It was unbelievable because at the back of our minds we knew why the agitation was beyond what meets the eye. There were deeper political interests.
“In attendance at the meeting of the Council of State where the decision to reschedule the election was taken were almost all the living former Heads of State of this country.
“That should have convinced John Kerry of the good intentions of the government. He cannot claim to love and defend Nigeria more than all our former heads of state present at the meeting. I have stated earlier how Kerry’s visit was designed to humiliate a sitting Nigerian President and clearly take sides in the country’s election.
“Anyhow, the six weeks served us well. We received the military equipment we were expecting within that period and our Armed Forces commendably dealt a deserving blow on the terrorists and repossessed all territorial areas of Nigeria previously occupied by the terrorists. Boko Haram was deflated up to the point I handed over to my successor on May 29, 2015.
“We conducted the elections peacefully, even if there were issues raised about its fairness. At least, the nation was relieved that the election held peacefully and that there was no post-election violence,” Jonathan stated in his book.
Nigerian Artiste, Burna Boy, sounded a warning to American model and cosmetic expert, Blac Chyna who is expected to be in Nigeria on Sunday, November 25th.
The American coming on the invitation by popular Nigerian US-based cosmetic entrepreneur, Dencia, is scheduled to attend the launch of a Whitenicious Body Cream Store in Lagos.
Burna Boy in a series of posts shared on his IG stories has asked Blac Chyna not to bring her ‘Poison’ to his home country Nigeria. The singer also warned that anyone who attends the event or perhaps patronizes the product might as well commit suicide.
The singer, however, said that the model is welcomed to party and shake her booty but is not welcomed to promote the product before going on to advice Nigerian ladies that their skin colour is beautiful.
Dencia took to the comment section of a post (Instablog9ja) made on Burna Boy’s message to Blac Chyna about her alleged plans to sell her bleaching cream products.
According to Dencia, Burna Boy only promotes drugs and can’t afford to hang out with Blac Chyna.
“So that nigga came out of his drug-induced coma instead of taking a shower to clean up his fart/Cig smelling looking ass he had time to talk about a woman? Hahaha for someone who promotes drug culture u can’t even afford to be in the same Zip code as her sis Burna cuz only girls act like u, u can’t afford her ass if she had to shake it, stick to the druggies on the side streets u are use to. Sending love & light ur way on this thanks giving we are thankful u making it alive living this high life,” she wrote.
She went on to accuse the music star of his silence when other companies launched their products in the country.
“I didn’t see this energy when fair and white launched their products In Nigeria, the then NAFDAC boss even attended, blogs who posted it wanna talk shit now. Whew, Chile the hypocrisy, wait nvm fair and white is white owned,” she concluded.
At the ending of 2017, the Nigerian music scene had one of the most memorable events in the history of Nigerian music over the last decade after two of the industry’s top acts came together to thrill their fans during their respective concerts.
Both internationally recognized music acts, Davido and Wizkid both had their ‘end of the year’ concerts around the same time and these times respectively, each artistes made a cameo appearance which thrilled each of their audiences at the time.
Their actions led to a sorta ‘bromance’ that had their fans really excited as afore time, the duo have been known to be arch rivals – the new found love of theirs made the rounds on social media with many of their fans anticipating a collabo from them.
Well, there’s yet to be any collaboration from them and moreso, there’s yet to be any display of bromance from the two of them and this has got fans wondering if all they did last year was just publicity stunt.
Yesterday was singer, Davido’s birthday and quite a handful of celebrities stormed not only his page but also their own pages to celebrate the singer as he turned 26. It was sort of expected that the “Fever” crooner at the very least, wished him a Happy Birthday too but we didn’t get any of that.
It should be recalled that in July, when Wizkid had his own birthday, Davido shared a video of himself grooving to the singer’s Soco hit song and captioned it with a birthday wish.
Davido had written… “Happy birthday @wizkidayo!! KEEP SOARING MY G!!”
… and recently, it was expected that the “Master Groove” singer also reciprocated on Davido’s birthday on social media but up till now, we’re yet to get a bit of a shoutout.
Though some, may claim that Wizkid might have privately wished the singer a happy birthday, it’s not all that easy to take in cause we know Davido to be a public person, who documents most of his everyday life activities on social media, so if presumably he got a message from Wizkid privately, he woulda hinted us on it publicly.
Wizkid, not wishing Davido a happy birthday is just one of the reasons why one could feel their relationship has hit the rocks as it will be recalled that months ago, when Davido won the Best International Act in the BET awards, he received not a congratulatory message from his bro, Wiz.
However the case may be, one can’t help but speculate that there just might be trouble in paradise, not until there’s a public declaration or display of affection from the two singers.
Paris Saint-Germain forwards, Neymar and Kylian Mbappe are both in a race against time to recover from injuries in time for the crucial Champions League clash with Liverpool, the French club said on Wednesday.
PSG said a scan had showed that Neymar strained an adductor muscle in his groin in Brazil’s 1-0 friendly win against Cameroon on Tuesday.
And Mbappe has a shoulder contusion after falling heavily in France’s 1-0 win over Uruguay at the Stade de France.
“A 48-hour period of treatment will be undertaken to assess their clinical evolution,” PSG said.
It appears likely that both players will miss PSG’s Ligue 1 match against Toulouse on Saturday, but their real target will be Wednesday’s Champions League match against Liverpool at the Parc des Princes.
All four sides could still qualify for the knockout phase from Group C. Liverpool have the same number of points as leaders Napoli while PSG sit third, one point behind Liverpool and one point ahead of Red Star Belgrade.

A Nigerian guy has given his opinion of what makes a woman a failure – according to Nnamdi Sam Carpenter’son on Facebook, a lady as failed if she gives money to her folks without her husband’s consent.
Nnamdi suggests that a lady’s husband should always know who she’s dishing out money to even if the money is from her own income.
He wrote,
You have fail as a woman when you keep sending money to your people without th [sic] constent [sic] of your husband, nomatter [sic] what ur [sic] husband supposed to no who and who you gave money to, even if the money is your own salary. You should accounted to him as a vacteous [sic] wife. I don [sic]t meant any harm please.
Yesterday, Davido‘s first baby mama, Sophia Momodu put one of her followers on blast after the latter told her to stop dressing up Imade in boring clothes because she’s the daughter of Davido.
According to the IG user, Imade needs to be dressed like a princess – and so, in response Sophia gave the troll quite the reply as she said the ‘boring’ cloth will feed the troll for weeks.
The IG user had written,
“@sophiamomodu what kind of ugly clothes are this? She’s a little girl & deserves to be stylish for goodness sake she’s davido daughter & should be dressed like a princess. Stop with the boring dress & spice up her wardrobe.”
Sophia replied;
“@michaelrufusofficial lol yimu, what do you know about style sis? That boring dress can feed you for weeks �”
In light of this, a quick check on the dress shows it is sold for $7.98 which is equivalent to N2,904 in Nigerian naira.
Nigerians of course have since been fascinated as to how much the dress actually is that it would feed someone for weeks…
The dress is up for sale for $15.97, but on checkout discount was given for $7.98.
. Have a happy birthday and know that I love you. Thank you #triedtostayawaketill12#icantwaitanymore #Nov22
