The former CEO of United Bank for Africa (UBA), Tony Elumelu, has expressed his readiness to redeem hs promise of $500,000 to the Super Eagles, which he made after they emerged African champions last year.

I was one of those who pledged – and many of us have waited expectantly for the organisers to approach us directly and redeem what has been promised to the team,” Elumelu, speaking through his aide.

“I am a champion of excellence and of youth initiatives, and I don’t make promises I don’t intend to keep. My promise to donate $500,000 to the players and coaches of the Super Eagles still stands.” 

The banking magnate went on to ask the NFF to provide him with the necessary account details, so he could wire the amount.

Halle Berry And Husband Olivier Martinez Living Separately Just After 8 Months Of Marriage

According to reports, Hollywoods Halle Berry and husband Olivier Martinez are living separately after barely eight months of marriage.

Berry and Martinez announced their engagement in 2012 and tied the knot in July 2012 at Chateau des Conde in Vallery, France.

It’s speculated that the reason for the marital problems is that the couple have drifted apart due to their hectic work schedules.

The couple have not been seen together in public since after December 7, which makes the rumour of their split seem more true.

47-year-old Berry is now shooting her new CBS series, “Extant,” in Los Angeles, while Martinez, 48, has been busy working on “Revenge” in a guest-star role that starts Sunday on the hit ABC show.

Berry attended the post-Oscars party solo and was not wearing her wedding ring.

Berry and Martinez have a son, Maceo, born in October 2013. Berry also has a 6-year-old daughter, Nahla, from her relationship with model Gabriel Aubry.

3 Good Reasons Why Parents Should Say Sorry To Their Kids

It isn’t easy for parents to make an apology to their child. While some parents think they will lose the clout they have, others think admitting a mistake will make them less credible in their child’s eyes. However, apologising to your child actually inculcates good behaviour and commands respect.

Reasons why we should learn to say sorry: 

1. It makes you a good role model: Children learn behaviour by imitating the adults around them. When you lead by example and accept your errors, it sets the precedent for model behaviour you want your child to exhibit. You’ll be teaching him/ her that asking for forgiveness doesn’t make you a weaker person, that it’s actually the honourable thing to do. 

2. They learn how to do it: Watching you ask for forgiveness in all sincerity teaches them how to do it right. Children are more intuitive than grown-ups, and tend to unconsciously pick up the nuances of their parents’ behaviour. So, if you own up to a mistake, your child is more likely to take responsibility for her slip-ups, with you and with others, in appropriate ways. 

3. It makes you more approachable: By accepting a goof-up, you will be treating him like a friend rather than talking down to him — something no child appreciates. This also makes children and tweens realise that even adults are capable of erring and unintentionally hurting others. So, your child is more likely to feel comfortable around you. He won’t be afraid to come to you with his problems.

Obesere’s Wife Is Upset With Him Over His Allegedly Raping A woman And Inserting Ring In Her Private Part

In a new chat with Thenet.ng, Oyo State-born musical top Fuji musician revealed that no one else is as hurt as his wife and mum to his 5 kids over his involvement with businesswoman Olaiya who accused him of raping her and inserting a ring in her private part for rituals. His wife is very disappointed but Obesere insists this scandal will not affect his family.

When he was asked why he moved the case to State CID and about his wife’s reaction, Obesere told theNet:

Police officers in Isolo think I’m an illiterate simply because I am a Fuji artiste. I am not an illiterate and I refuse to be intimidated, which is why I asked for the case to be transferred. How can a girl accuse me of rape four days after sex? What is her proof? Since the case was transferred to the SCID, she has not reported to the station. If truly she was raped, she should come to the SCID with her proof. My wife Abike is angry with me, but I am her husband, so she will forgive me.

Obesere’s family is not the only thing being threatened.  His freedom and career will also be affected if he is found guilty as the Lagos State Criminal law prescribes life sentence as punishment for rape.
Meanwhile, below is a photo of Obesere’s house where the alleged rape took place.

Justin Bieber's Greatest Fan Loses 53Kg Off Her Bodyweight Just So He Can Notice Her

A Justin Bieber super fan who used to weigh 120kg lost practically half her body weight all in a bid to make her pop star idol notice her.

Now weighing 67kg , Bryanna Debinder, 20, shed an incredible 53kg in just a year after becoming jealous of the slim girls who were pulled on stage by Bieber during his concerts. So, she vowed to lose weight and embarked on a diet that has seen her looking more beautiful than ever before.

‘Every time I saw him pull up a pretty, slim girl on stage, I just thought: ‘that should be me’,’ said Bryanna, of Pennsylvania.

"Everyone deserves a chance to be noticed by the person they love, and i am his biggest fan. I just wanted to be the girl he sang to"

The psychology student said she also spent hours messaging Justin on Twitter, feeling a pang of jealousy when he replied to other girls’ tweets and never noticed her.

So, Bryanna cut out all of the junk food from her diet, and instead filled her fridge with fruit and vegetables. She also watched YouTube exercise videos and did sit-ups at home. In just 12 months, she lost an impressive 53kg and has dropped seven dress sizes to a UK size 8.

And she says she owes her new life to Bieber. More photos:
