Cristiano Ronaldo’s sister takes a swipe at Lionel Messi following his 8th Ballon d’Or win

Cristiano Ronaldo's sister takes

Cristiano Ronaldo’s sister, Katia Aveiro, has seemingly taken a dig at Lionel Messi following his Ballon d’Or win last weekend.

Messi secured his eighth Ballon d’Or trophy after leading Argentina to victory in the 2022 Qatar World Cup. This accomplishment put him three Ballon d’Or wins ahead of his longtime rival Ronaldo, who has five to his name.

While many celebrated Messi’s achievement, some questioned whether he truly deserved the award.

Amid the ongoing debate, Katia Aveiro, aged 46, seems to have expressed agreement with a post stating that Ronaldo earned all his awards, subtly taking a jab at Messi following his recent win.

The post, shared on Instagram, showed Ronaldo, 38, posing with his numerous awards, which included three UEFA Men’s Player of the Year awards, four European Golden Shoes, and five Ballon d’Ors.

The post was captioned, “Earned, not given”. Interestingly, Aveiro liked the post and added five clapping emojis.

See below,

This isn’t the first time Aveiro has engaged in the never ending debate in modern football.

Last year, she took to social media to describe the World Cup as ‘the worst ever’. She, however, later made a U-turn, acknowledging the quality of the final match and congratulated Argentina.

Earlier, Aveiro had encouraged Ronaldo to leave the World Cup and return home to a place where he is appreciated after he was benched during Portugal’s match.

Nigerian man faces

A Nigerian man has been left stranded and facing possible deportation after his wife took their kids and abandoned him at an airport in the UK.

A user with the handle @Jayydubby shared the man’s plight on the ‘Nigerians in the UK’ community on the microblogging platform, X (formerly Twitter).

According to the user, the man sold all his belongings to sponsor his wife’s relocation to the UK for study in 2022, with the intention of joining her later with their children as her dependents.

Nigerian man faces

Upon their arrival in the UK in October, he received a huge shock when his wife took the kids and their passports, and told him that their marriage was over.

Sadly, the young man now finds himself stranded without a job or means to stay in the UK. He has been given until January 2024 to leave the country, or he will be deported.

The post reads,

“Hello everyone,

A family friend of mine is in urgent need of a job with sponsorship. Last month, he arrived in the UK with his children as dependents and his wife went to pick them up at the airport and asked to see their children’s passports, which he handed over without any suspicion. She then told him that their marriage was over and wanted nothing to do with him. She took their children and abandoned him at the airport. He just come to the UK for the first time to join his wife, who came last year to study. He helped pay her fees and sold off everything he had to join her.

Today, the Home Office sent him a letter saying that he has until 1st of January, to return to Nigeria. He has nothing to go back to and may never see his children again.

I am pleading with anyone who can help him with a job referral so that he can stay and fight for his children. If you know of any job openings or can put him in touch with someone who might be able to help, please reach out to me. I would be incredibly grateful. 🙏🏼😥”

“Davido queried me when blogs claimed I wrote Jowo” – Victor AD

Popular Nigerian singer, Victor AD has finally opened up about the events that followed rumours that he was the writer of Davido’s popular song “Jowo.”

Recall that a while back, claims went viral on social media that Victor AD claimed Davido had stolen his hit song “Jowo” from him in a studio session.

See below,

Victor AD, however, disclosed that Davido had questioned him about why he would say such a thing when the accusations began to circulate but he denied being the source of the rumours.

The Warri-born music singer confirmed that he didn’t write the song, as was widely believed in a recent interview with Naija FM, Lagos.

The ‘Tyre You’ crooner claims that his connection with the DMW chief was nearly destroyed by fake reports found on blogs.

He said:

“From nowhere, someone speculating that Victor AD wrote [Davido’s] ‘Jowo.’ I’m not social media-savvy. Most times, before I notice happenings on social media, it would be two days after the matter has trended.

My manager actually called my attention to the ‘Jowo’ controversy on social media but I didn’t take it seriously. Later on, I said let me just check the trend on social media. Then a few hours later, I saw Davido’s message. He was like, ‘Whatsup na? Wettin dey sup with this whole ‘Jowo’ thing?’. And I said I didn’t know anything about it.

I told him that based on the love and respect I have for him I can’t do something that will tarnish his image. I’m not even the type of person that will claim what I’m not. Why would I be seeking credit for what I didn’t do?”

“I’m not interested in your explanation” – Seun Kuti lampoons AY Comedian

Controversial Nigerian singer, Seun Kuti has rubbished AY Makun’s justification over his recent allegations of calling his daughter a dog.

Recall that the Afrobeats singer made headlines on Wednesday, November 1, after he expressed his displeasure with AY and accused him of referring to his daughter as a dog in a comedy skit.

 AY Comedian reacts

He also criticised AY for using his ‘trials and tribulations’ to mock him, referring to his confrontation with a police officer on Third Mainland Bridge a few months ago.

Reacting to the accusations from Seun Kuti, AY Comedian emphatically stated that he didn’t refer to Seun’s child as a dog and it was a misconception.

He explained that he waited on God for a child for 13 years and can’t be one to mock a human being, let alone a child. He said the comedy skit he filmed in June was a fusion of Seun’s clash with the police and the incident involving Guinness Record holder, Hilda Baci, and Enioluwa, where they were criticized by dog lovers for eating dog meat in Cross River state.

AY’s explanations did not sit well with Seun, who continued to berate him for his untimely joke.

He wrote,

“You are a dick bro. Your move was a dick move. I ain’t interested in your explanations cos I watched
your video. The timing of it, the meaning of it nothing was lost on me. I will only address your lies.
Your children are ‘bla bla bla’ speech. The only person sitting in the back seat of my car was my
daughter! What did u put in the back seat of your dry skit?! You must really think you are
something you know. You must really think you are something!
The spineless behavior that you all call careers, you must really think it’s something. Werey dey tag me for video sha. Negro please !!”

Former CBN governor, Emefiele, faces arrest threat as judge demands explanation for $53m debt

Former Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Godwin Emefiele, has been given a deadline of January 25 to appear before the Federal High Court in Abuja to provide an explanation regarding a $53 million judgment debt arising from the Paris Club refund.

Justice Inyang Ekwo warned that if Emefiele fails to appear, a warrant for his arrest would be issued.

Emefiele’s counsel, Audu Anuga, informed the court that his client’s appearance had been hindered as he was still in custody.

The judgment debt of $70 million was being pursued by Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Joe Agi, through a proceeding against the CBN, with the aim of recovering the debt from Linas International Limited and the Minister of Finance.

The CBN had already paid part of the debt, leaving a balance of $53 million.

Despite repeated orders from Justice Ekwo, Emefiele had failed to appear before the court.

In response to the plea by Emefiele’s lawyer, the judge expressed his determination to enforce compliance with court orders, emphasizing that Emefiele must appear.

The Legal Department of the CBN filed an affidavit on Emefiele’s behalf, stating that he had been in the custody of the Department of State Services since June 10.

However, the court maintained that Emefiele’s absence did not exempt him from contempt proceedings.

The judge adjourned the matter until January 25, providing an opportunity for Emefiele to demonstrate why an arrest warrant should not be issued against him.

The court stressed the importance of compliance with its orders and allowed time for the opposing party to respond to the process.

Seyi Law withdraws support as he questions President Tinubu’s decision to purchase presidential yacht

Popular Nigerian comedian, Seyi Law, has questioned president Tinubu’s choice to buy a presidential yacht.

The comedian has frequently voiced his support for the Tinubu administration, to the point that his daughter has gotten death threats as a result of his connection.

However, a few days ago, it was revealed through the release of an additional loan budget that the presidency had allocated N5 billion for a presidential boat.

This budget has brought about concern from the general public, especially as the economic situation in the country is dwindling and many are struggling to survive.

Taking to the microblogging platform X (formerly known as Twitter), Seyi Law expressed his displeasure with the 5 billion Naira budget for the presidential yacht.

In his words;

“I am absolutely not in support of the procurement of the presidential yacht. It is quite insensitive to the plight of Nigerians at this moment to even rationalise it. I call on the president, @officialABAT, to once again prove to Nigerians that he listens. Thank you, your Excellency.”

In other news, Inedoye Ikedichim Chibundu, the bride of Nigerian Afrobeats singer, instrumentalist, and Fela Kuti’s grandson, Made Kuti, has revealed how they met.

Man sentenced to life imprisonment for rap!ng his girlfriend’s teenage daughter

In a landmark judgment, the Thabamoopo Regional Court in Limpopo, South Africa, has sentenced Moganedi Sello Koos, a 40-year-old man, to life imprisonment for the rape of his girlfriend’s 16-year-old daughter.

Koos was also found guilty of robbery with aggravating circumstances, leading to an additional 15-year sentence. The verdict was delivered on Tuesday, October 31, 2023.

According to Brigadier Hlulani Mashaba, the spokesperson for the Limpopo provincial police, the horrific incident occurred on April 16, 2017, at Magatle village.

At the time, the teenager was home alone while her mother attended a candlelight vigil at the cemetery.

Exploiting the absence of the girl’s mother, Koos forcefully entered the house, brandishing a knife and threatening the victim with harm if she did not comply.

Under duress, the young girl was subjected to a terrifying ordeal as Koos ordered her to undress before raping her.

Following the assault, he callously stole two cellphones from her and fled the scene. The victim promptly reported the crime to the police, who initiated investigations into the incident.

Sergeant Mogale Billy of the family violence, child protection, and sexual offences unit in Mokopane took charge of the case.

In June 2020, Koos was implicated in the crime through DNA evidence, leading to his subsequent arrest.

The diligent efforts of the investigating officer ensured that the accused was denied bail until his conviction.

In addition to the severe prison sentences, Koos has been declared unfit to possess a firearm, and his details will be registered in the National Register for Sexual Offences.

The ruling sends a resounding message that crime will not go unpunished.

North Dakota woman charged with murdǝr after poison!ng boyfriend over $30 million inheritance

A shocking incident unfolded in Minot, North Dakota, as Ina Thea Kenoyer, a 47-year-old woman, was charged on Monday with the murder of her boyfriend, Steven Edward Riley Jr., 51.

The arrest came after an investigation into Riley’s untimely demise on September 5, 2023.

According to police records, the tragedy began to unravel when Riley met with his lawyer on September 3 to collect a substantial inheritance sum, rumored to be around $30 million.

Witnesses informed investigators that Riley fell ill shortly after this meeting.

However, it wasn’t until the following day, September 4, that Kenoyer finally contacted emergency services. Paramedics arrived at Riley’s residence to find him unresponsive.

Tragically, Riley passed away at the hospital on September 5.

An autopsy later revealed that he had ingested a lethal dose of antifreeze, leading law enforcement to suspect foul play.

Allegations surfaced that Kenoyer had intentionally fed him the toxic substance.

In the days leading up to her arrest, Kenoyer took to social media to proclaim her innocence, asserting that Riley had taken his own life.

She also claimed entitlement to the inheritance as Riley’s common-law wife, despite North Dakota not recognizing such relationships.

Complicating matters further, Riley had apparently intended to end their romance shortly after receiving his windfall, prompting investigators to theorize a motive for the alleged poisoning.

Riley’s grieving son expressed his sorrow on Facebook and hoped that justice would be served.

She now faces the most severe murder charge in North Dakota, and she is currently being held without bond at the Ward County Detention Center.

In an intriguing twist, she has chosen to represent herself in court.

“Only virgins are safe, hypocrites” – Phyna speaks after being dragged for saying ‘there’s no woman that has not done aborti0n before’

Phyna speaks

Nigerian reality TV show winner, Ijeoma Josephina Otabor, also known as Phyna, has spoken out after being criticized online for her statement that every woman has had an abortion.

Phyna, who won The Big Brother Naija season 7 ‘Level Up’ in 2022, made this controversial statement during an interview with Chude.

Her statement in the interview raised a lot of eyebrows, and many of her fans and netizens condemned and advised her to speak for herself only and not generalize it.

Phyna, however, in a recent post on her Instagram story, shared more writings to support her claims that many women have had an abortion in one way or another.

Replying to a follower who asked her if she thought about the statement before saying it during the interview, Phyna responded by saying, “Only virgins are safe hypocrites.”

She went on to add that the use of pills and contraceptives to prevent pregnancy during sex is equivalent to abortion.

According to her “As long as you having sex as a woman If you drink posti**r that’s abortion, If you drank becharm ampilox and warm water that’s abortion.

“If I stop singing today, my name will still be in Afrobeats Bible” – Rema

Nigerian singer, Divine Ikubor, widely known as Rema, has said that he thinks he has done enough to be inducted into the Afrobeats Hall of Fame.

He stated that while he doesn’t want to stop making music anytime soon, his name would still be on the Afrobeats Bible if he did so at this moment.

Rema expressed this in a recent interview with i-D Magazine’s fourth edition of The New Wave issue.

The 23-year-old claimed he would be on the cover of the New Testament if there was an Afrobeats bible.

Rema said;

“I’m not saying I want to stop. But if I say I want to stop right now, my name is still going to be on the Afrobeats bible, if there is an Afrobeats bible to be dropped. I’ll literally be in the New Testament, on the front page.”

The “Calm Down” singer also talked about how, after becoming famous in 2019, people made fun of him for having a Bollywood soundtrack-like sound, but the ridicule eventually turned into a blessing.

“Everything they doubted, everything they laughed at me for, I built on it. They called me Indian Boy; I went to India. I’m the first artiste to shut down four cities in India, 5000 capacity and above. No one can deny that I’ve impacted Afrobeats on a global scale,” he said.

“Nigerians underrate me” – Skales laments

Nigerian singer and songwriter, Skales has said that despite being the greatest artiste, he remains underappreciated in the music industry.

Skales said that fans weren’t giving him enough credit and discussed his struggles in the early stages of his career with poor self-esteem.

He also stated that he is one of the Nigerian artistes who helped Afrobeats get international recognition.

His statement was a mixture of lamentation and self-appraisal, as he believes himself to be the current “it” guy who is underappreciated for his skill.

He said:

“I just rediscovered myself from 2020. I’ve been dealing with a lot of low self-esteem. Even while I have all the big songs in the world, I still doubt myself. But now, I’m more confident.

I believe I’m among the set that started taking afrobeats to the world. I was honoured and opportune to be part of it. I tell myself I’m the greatest artist out there. This is no disrespect to anybody. It’s just my opinion of myself. I believe that I’m the rave of the moment because where I’m right now musically is inspiring.”

Funny moment actress Rita Edochie pranked her ‘boyfriend’, Emeka Enyiocha, with a car gift (video)

Rita Edochie pranked

A video of the hilarious moment veteran Nollywood actress, Rita Edochie, pranked her colleague, actor Emeka Enyiocha, with a car gift, has been shared online.

In the video, Rita handed the key to her colleague and told him that she bought the car as a gift for him. He was initially in disbelief but she assured him that the car belonged to him, while expressing her love for him.

Emeka, who was understandably shocked by the car gift, asked her to send a message confirming that the car is truly his, which she did.

The message reads,

“Emeka I saw you in my dream and I was instructed by the Holy Spirit to dash you this car and I’ve given you this car.

No matter what, this car belongs to you. Even if I come to take this car back, this text will show that you have got the car.”

This apparently convinced him that she genuinely bought the car for him. However, he received a rude shock when she took back the car keys and revealed that it was all a prank.

He was mildly upset by this, but he handled the joke quite well.

Rita shared the video on her Instagram page with the caption,

“I BOUGHT A FINE CAR FOR MY BOY FRIEND ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ @emekaenyiocha”

Serial rap!st sentenced to 102 years imprisonment by Polokwane High Court in South Africa

In a landmark ruling, the Polokwane High Court has sentenced 28-year-old Evans Ramahlo, a notorious serial rapist known as “Killer,” to an astounding 102 years behind bars.

Ramahlo was convicted on charges of robbery with firearms and rape, ending a reign of terror that shook the Motupa village community.

Between January and November 2021, residents of Bolobedu South, under the Tzaneen policing area, lived in fear as Ramahlo and an accomplice targeted couples strolling the village at night.

Armed and dangerous, they would rob their victims of valuables, including cellphones, and subject the female victims to brutal sexual assaults in front of their partners.

The assailants even targeted couples in motor vehicles, forcing male victims to engage in sexual acts with their partners after raping them.

The relentless efforts of the Limpopo police led to the arrest of Ramahlo on February 14, 2022. DNA evidence further linked him to three additional cases in the same area, solidifying his guilt.

The diligent investigation, carried out by Sergeant Glenda Mathebula and the Tzaneen tracing team, played a crucial role in bringing the perpetrator to justice.

During the sentencing, the court imposed 13 years of imprisonment for each of the four counts of robbery with aggravating circumstances, resulting in a total of 52 years.

Additionally, Ramahlo received 25 years for each of the two rape charges, with five years suspended, contingent on him not being convicted of rape during the suspension period.

The court ordered that these sentences run concurrently, ensuring a severe punishment for his heinous crimes.
