Januzaj turns down chance to play for Belgium

Manchester United wonderkid Adnan Januzaj, has turned down the opportunity to represent Belgium at international level.
Coach of the Belgian national team, Marc Wilmots, made the first move to win the battle for the 18-year-old’s services and named him in the squad for the upcoming World Cup qualifying games against Wales and Croatia.
However, the teenager quickly rejected the chance and conveyed the message via the Premier League club. It is understood that Januzaj would rather play for Kosovo, who are yet to get UEFA membership, but Wilmots admitted he will try again for the winger.

“This was the first time I have tried to include him in a squad, because I wanted to send him a clear message,” he said. “Unfortunately, I had a very quick response from England, when Manchester United called me to say the player felt he was not ready to make a choice about his international future.
“I respect his stance. Every player has the right to make his own choice, and I will not attempt to make any sort of ultimatum to him. But I do intend meeting Adnan and his entourage to find out for myself exactly what their thoughts are. You cannot force a player to choose a country. It has to come from his heart.
“Clearly, when you have a player of his technique and ability, the door to the national team always stays open.”

Anambra guber: Ezeemo’s aide escapes assassination...

Anambra’s politics got deadlier Sunday with an attempted assassination on the Media Director of Godwin Ezeemo campaign organization, Mr Okey Nwoke.
Nwoke was attacked by gun wielding young men who he said numbered about six and drove in two cars- an SUV and a Toyota Camry car which sandwiched him at Igbo Ukwu as he drove to his principal’s (Ezeemo’s) house at about 8am.
Nwoke who escaped unhurt had his silver coloured Toyota car riddled with bullets, and still looked badly shaken as he addressed journalists at the home of Mr Godwin Ezeemo.
Narrating his story to journalists, Nwoke said, “I left my home in Enugwu Adazi in Anaocha Local Government Area for Mr Ezeemo’s place as we had a scheduled meeting today, and all the directors of Ezeemo campaign were supposed to meet in his house.
“As I drove through Igboukwu, I noticed a Toyota Camry car painted in ash colour following me. I did not suspect anything until I noticed another jeep in front of me which was not speeding as it should. It was when I made to overtake it that the jeep blocked me, and before I could realize it, the two back doors of the car were open and two boys carrying AK 47 riffles stepped out and aimed at me”.
Nwoke continued that immediately he sensed danger, seeing that they had blocked his way, engaged his gear in reverse and waited to see their reaction.

Veteran yoruba actor Pa-Kasumu battles heart and liver diseases

Nollywood actor Olukayode Odumosu, popularly known as Pa Kasumu, needs N12 million to address the health challenges that are pushing him to the brink.

He is struggling to stay alive at LUTH as he battles heart and liver diseases; “secondary prevention of repeat stroke,” after battling a cardiovascular disease, otherwise known as stroke.
Speaking with The Nation newspaper, he recounted that his ailment began in 2009.

Since then, he has been undergoing series of diagnostic tests and costly medications.
All these have deprived him of any meaningful professional engagement in the movie industry; hence, he is suffering serious financial handicap.
Odumosu, who hails from Odogbolu in Ogun State and recently clocked 6o, said his vision was also failing.

“I have spent so much on these diseases. When it was first diagnosed, the doctors said the ailment was severe, that they would need to control its progression for it not to affect my kidneys. This they did, and I was happy they succeeded, but now, other serious ailments have set in, necessitating this battle of survival. I am not tired yet; I still want to continue to make people laugh, but my failing health is a terrible obstacle.” he said

He also said he was experiencing memory loss due to the ailment, adding that it was time the government, corporate organisations and kind-hearted Nigerians rescued him from likely “untimely death.”

He gave his bank details as:
Olukayode Olugbenga Odumosu; 
Diamond Bank 
Account number: 0036059543. 
And his mobile telephone numbers: 08033535159 and 08096762254.

"Everything we are doing with God is by a privileged grace. Several people have changed locations, blamed conditions and a lot of people have concluded they are write-offs in Gods heart. But, right where you are, several doors shut against destinies of people in this forum shall be opened because you cannot hear these words daily without making an impact in your generation. "He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions. Welcome to the week of spiritual re branding"

5 ‘bad boy’ qualities even good men should have

A guy who has better funny names for people than I do and knows how to mock and tease like even the meanest of the mean girls can get my heart.

Some women like “bad boys.” Actually, scratch that. Most women like bad boys. There is something about a man with an “edge” that is just alluring to us all. He’s mysterious, angry, confident, and full of swagger.

Still, marrying a bad boy is a bad, bad move. It’s one thing to have a rollercoaster dating life with ups and downs and drinking and fighting (and hot sex) and passion. It’s another to have a marriage like that. The former is sexy. The latter? Not so much.

Most of us grownup women give up the bad boys for the nice boys once we start looking at marriage, and there is no doubt, that’s the smart way to go. But here are five bad boy qualities we all want even our good boys to have:

1. Backbone: Even a good guy needs to know when to say no and stand up for himself. No one wants a doormat and a man who can’t stand up and say what he feels isn’t a man.
