Greek-Nigerian, Giannis Antetokounmpo (Adetokunbo), on Tuesday night, sealed Milwaukee Bucks first title since 1971 with heroic 50-point performance at the NBA Finals.
Giannis scored 50 points along with 14 rebounds and five blocks to lead the Milwaukee Bucks to the 2021 NBA championship after they defeated the Phoenix Suns 105-98 at home to take the Finals series 4-2.
The victory comes exactly three weeks after suffering a knee injury that appeared to put his role in the Finals in doubt.
With the victory, the Bucks clinched the NBA Finals 4-2 and became the only fifth team to win the best-of-seven championship series after losing the first two games.
Speaking after the game, he said ;
“Obviously, I represent my country, both countries, Nigeria and Greece,” Antetokounmpo said. “A lot of kids from there. But not just from Nigeria — all Africa and all Europe.
“I know I’m a role model. But this should make every person, every kid, anybody around the world believe in their dreams. No matter whatever you feel when you’re down, when you don’t think it’s going to happen for you or you might not make it in your career — might be basketball, might be anything — just believe in what you’re doing and keep working.
“Don’t let nobody tell you what you can be and what you cannot do … Just believe, man. I hope I give people around the world, from Africa, from Europe, hope that it can be done. It can be done.
“Eight years ago, eight and a half years ago, when I came to the league, I didn’t know where my next meal will come from. My mom was selling stuff in the street. Now I’m here sitting at the top of the top. I’m extremely blessed. I’m extremely blessed. If I never have a chance to sit on this table ever again, I’m fine with it. I’m fine with it. I hope this can give everybody around the world hope. I want them to believe in their dreams.”
Billionaire Businessman, Obi Iyiegbu, whose popularity in the mainstream media has soared since he held a lavish funeral for his mother, has replied those saying he is into money rituals.
According to the Businessman, what people see today are results of consistent hardwork.
In his interview with BBC Pidgin, he said ;
Miracle no dey give money because that pastor needs the money more. Native doctor no fit give money because his children are the ones who fetch water from the stream. How can he give you what he doesn’t have? Work hard. Work hard.
As for those asking him to “cut soap” for them, he told them to work hard and be consistent.
“Cut soap” is slang used to ask a successful person to give you a bit of what they are using that makes them successful. It originates from the claims that some young fraudsters visit ritualists who give them soap to bathe with for optimal success.”
“If you are in your 20s, work now. I am 46 years. I have done my first half. I don’t know why someone who is just 20 years will say he has not made it when he still has 50 years 60 years ahead.”
“There is no soap to cut for anybody, there is no soap anywhere, work, pray, be good, make your own soap.”

The actress wrote;
A Letter to MY NOLLYWOOD!!
Dear Nollywood, How are you? Hope you’re doing great? A quick one!!
Please ,can we glorify the hardworking part of IGBO MEN, in our movies?? Instead of “RITUALS” alllllllll the time!!

On December 10, 2005, Kechi Okwuchi, a 16-year-old high school senior was aboard Sosoliso Airlines Flight 1145 that crashed, killing 107 people on board. She was one of only two survivors. All of her classmates died, leaving her the lone student survivor.
She survived and she hasn’t stopped telling the story of how her life changed forever.
She emerged a finalist at the twelfth season of America’s Got Talent in 2017 and her popularity has soared through the roof ever since.
However, she still has the scars from the crash, and she wears it proudly.
Kechi recently took to her social media page to share photos of how she was ‘one year after the crash’ and ‘what she looks like right now’.
Sharing the before and after photos, she wrote ;
(Wonder if I should tag this as sensitive content…?) I stumbled upon the picture on the left on my laptop a couple months ago, and i have been contemplating this post since then. I remember I stared at it for a long time that day. Time makes me forget just how extensive my burn injuries were, and how devastating the effects were to my body. I realize this may shock some of you too. The pic on the left was taken a good year after the plane crash and by then, intense scar tissue had formed, esp on my face. I took the pic on the right a few mins ago and made these before/afters, and I marvel at how far God has brought me. I am the result of the hard work of multiple surgeons He brought into my life, nurses, physiotherapists, and love and care from my family, my mom especially. This is what progress looks like, guys. 2 pictures, 14 years apart. I’m grateful that I lived long enough to see it. I decided to make this post so that you guys can marvel at God with me. I want someone who reads this to see that true progress, genuine growth, and lasting change cannot happen overnight. Most of the time during the journey, maybe like me, you won’t notice changes because day by day they’re too minuscule to make a difference. But if you give yourself a fighting chance, if you find the right kind of support on your journey, one day, definitely one day which right now may seem so far away, you will look back like I did this morning and hopefully…you will smile I heard this in a song and it stuck with me: The night will definitely come. But so will the morning I never post things like this arbitrarily. As always, please be encouraged.
Plane crash survivor and singer, Kechi, shares her Before/After photos as she marvels over how far God has brought her since the incident.
