Ronaldo mocks Barcelona after winning fifth trophy in 2017

Real Madrid superstar, Cristiano Ronaldo has mocked LaLiga league leaders, Barcelona after winning the FIFA Club World Cup, stating that the Catalan club needs to give his team a guard of honour before the El Clasico clash at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu. Ronaldo’s second-half free-kick ensured Madrid picked up a fifth trophy of 2017 by beating Gremio 1-0 in Abu Dhabi on Saturday to retain the Club World Cup. “It would be nice and I would like Barcelona to give us a guard of honour,” the Portuguse said in the mixed zone to reporters after the match. “I hope we win that game too so that the league is still alive for Real Madrid. “We have to enjoy every moment because we don’t know what will happen in the future. “I’m happy I scored the goal, very happy,” Ronaldo said.

7 Ways Entrepreneurs Drive Economic Development

Entrepreneurs create businesses, businesses create jobs and people with jobs make good customers. There’s been a lot of talk lately about the future of work. Much of the time, these conversations are fueled by the anxiety many of us share as we try to understand the impact new technologies will have on our industries. We tend to reduce these discussions to binary arguments -- how smart machines will do extraordinary things to improve our lives, or how this or that innovation will make human labor obsolete, creating a jobless dystopia. Both conclusions strike me as somewhat specious. It’s not that these concerns aren’t valid, but they oversimplify a more complex phenomenon. Why do entrepreneurship and innovation fuel economic growth? On the surface, the answer seems intuitive: entrepreneurs create businesses and new businesses create jobs, strengthen market competition and increase productivity. Here in the United States, entrepreneurism is part of our American identi...

Convention: APC Taunts PDP, says A Leopard Can’t Change its Spots

ABUJA: Despite its own inability to hold its national convention after series of postponements, the ruling All Progressives Congress APC Sunday in Abuja launched a frontal attack on the conduct of Saturday’s national convention of the opposition-Peoples Democratic Party PDP, describing it as a ruse. In a terse statement laced with sarcasm, the ruling party described the PDP as a leopard that is incapable of changing its spots, saying corruption is deeply rooted in its DNA. APC & PDP APC also added that the PDP has not departed from its evil ways especially due to its constant resort to using money to sway electoral support. “In reacting to revelations of how money-for-votes and systematic rigging was brazenly perpetuated during the National Convention of the Peoples Democratic Party PDP, the All Progressives Congress APC is mindful of the popular axiom: A leopard cannot change its spot”, the ruling party noted in a statement by its spokesperson, Mallam Bolaji A...

Biafra: We Do Not Support IPOB – British Government

The British government has opened up on the agitations for Biafra, Restructuring and the Indigenous people of Biafra( IPOB ) group, stating that they do not support IPOB or Secessionists. The British government maintains that it would not support any activity that will lead to the break-up of Nigeria. The British high commissioner to Nigeria, Paul Arkwright during a visit to Joy 109.1 FM in Jos, had this to say; “We are in favour of a united Nigeria; we do not support IPOB, we do not support secessionists. Equally, they have a right to be heard because the constitution provides for freedom of expression, even as restructuring is going to be a major factor in the 2019 elections. Although I do not know how exactly the restructuring will look like, I am sure that it is going to be a major determinant in the 2019 elections.”

A Truelove Story: My NYSC Teacher [Episode 1]

EPISODE 1 It is 5:30 am, 30mins to my final parole. This, I am told is my last day on earth. They said a team of Rev. Fathers are coming to preach to us – condemned prisoners, to pray for our souls, so at least we can make purgatory. There’s chain around my legs and hands, the chain whenever the draw it, peels my skin. On getting to the visiting room, they remove the chains. My fellow prisoners rush to their families with tears on their eyes. Saying their last good-byes, kissing their wives, touching their daughters and sons on the head. Telling them to be brave, the world is tough but they should struggle to survive. My eyes water – as if someone is peeling onions close to me. This is my last day in this world and there’s no one here for me. I am alone. The Rev. Father is here. His hair is white. He looks hungry, even closer to the grave than I am. He smiles as I take a seat. “My Son you look well” he says smiling. Is this a joke? Is he trying ...

Why you should include Ugu in your daily diet

This vegetable can be recognised as a cure to some of our illness if only we can look deep into its benefits. Pumpkin leaf ( Ugu )is one of the commonly consumed dark green leafy vegetables in Nigeria and many of us in Nigeria have been eating Ugu without really realising the benefits. This type of vegetable is so versatile and can be recognised as a cure to some of our illness if only we can look deep into its benefits. While many people prefer to cook it as a vegetable with all the condiments that help whet the appetite, some just boil and eat it plain like that or blend it into a shake. See the following health benefits of Ugu: 1. Contains a healthy amount of vitamins. 2. Prevention of convulsion- the young leaves are sliced and mixed with salt and coconut water and then stored in a bottle for treatment of convulsion. 3.

9 THINGS THAT SOCIAL MEDIA HAS DONE TO SHAPE OUR EVERYDAY LIVES Written By Anonymous

As the world around us continues to morph through shifts in human interaction, the days of our lives have become increasingly complex, switching from the physical to the temporeal, our smart phones becoming just as important to our daily lives as our physical interactions.

Does Smoking Weed Make You More Creative?

A new study on the effects of smoking marijuana and its relation to creativity has some interesting results. The study consisted of 412 marijuana users (they couldn’t find 8 more?) and 309 non-users, and they attempted to answer the question: Does smoking marijuana make you more creative? Emily LaFrance, the co-author of the study and graduate student at Washington State University, says she first became interested in the topic when she noticed that a lot of her favorite artists admit they smoke marijuana. “This cannabis use was commonly thought to have been a cause of the creative success of many artists,” she explains. “I began to wonder about this commonly held idea – are cannabis users really more creative than non-users?” The study is called “Inspired by Mary Jane? Mechanisms underlying enhanced creativity in cannabis users” and was published in Consciousness and Cognition . It examined the participants over a variety of areas incl...

Types of GirlFriend to Avoid

Bad girlfriends don’t just suck, they give relationships a bad name. Check out this list of 15 types of bad girlfriends, and make sure you avoid them! By Jake Butler A great girlfriend can make your life feel like a walk in the clouds. On the other hand, a bad girlfriend will surely make your life feel like hell! Bad partners don’t just create problems in a relationship, they give love a bad name. Every time someone has a bad relationship, they blame love for it, or they mentally convince themselves that they’d never fall in love again. But the truth is, love doesn’t ever feel terrible. It never leaves us unhappy. It is bad experiences, and most importantly, the people involved that leave us upset or broken. Bad girlfriends and bad experiences I’ve been in quite a few relationships, and if you ever find yourself stuck in a relationship where it’s just not working out, it’s easier to end it and just move on *if it’s still the early ...

Instagram Stories vs Snapchat Stories

When Instagram unveiled Instagram Stories earlier this month, the interwebs flooded with debates about the close similarities the new feature bears with Snapchat’s own Stories feature. Headlines like Huffington Post’s “Is Instagram Stories the Nail in Snapchat’s Coffin? ” and The New York Times’ “Instagram Take a Page from Snapchat, and Takes Aim at It, Too ” define much of the chatter generated by Instagram’s new release and today, Florence Lujani, J. Walter Thompson London‘s Social Team Lead & Head of Influencer Relations, joins in with her own take on this social media boxing match. — Instagram has had some big changes in the last 12 months: in August 2015, it started supporting landscape and portrait formats, in March they introduced a new algorithm similar to Facebook which prioritizes content from people we interact the most with, and in May they reimagined the app design and logo. But the introduction of Ins...

7 Signs To Recognise That Your Guy Is No Longer Into You.

Some of the signs that are indicative of a guy no longer into you are: Does not take your calls : Or messages, if you use online dating service. If your guy seems to ignore your calls and offers no valid explanation you got to see it coming! While it may be genuine in some situations, consistently ignoring calls mean something is just not right.

He will pretend to be oblivious of your presence and try to avoid having a conversation all of which are signs he does to care anymore f...

7 Types Of Men Every Woman Should Be Wary Of

As the saying goes men will be men! While it is great in some respects, the last thing you want in is to be in a relationship with a guy who tells barefaced lies, without batting an eyelid! It can be emotionally and psychologically devastating for the partner to experience especially, when it involves infidelity. The cornerstone of any healthy relationship is to be true and honest with one another most if not at all times. Some of the tell tale signs that you are in relationship with a man who has no qualms in lying are: The single card : Most men pretend to be single and ready to mingle at the drop of a hat. Even if they are in a relationship most will not hesitate to claim that they are footloose and fancy free, by claiming to be single. I am not into womanising : If you hear a man make that oft repeated claim you need to be on your toes. They will check out every eligible female they set their eyes on, and gladly flirt at the drop of a hat but will proclaim – me a womaniser – ne...
