Caption this photo of Jose Mourinho and Samuel Eto'o.

It’s not like there’s something really special about this photo or a hug but if you got Samuel Eto’o’s “fool” and “puppet” memo few months back, (and then the Thank You remark this week) you would understand why I shared this photo.

It’s their second contact (the first was a handshake) since Samuel left Chelsea. And seeing them smoke peace pipe is so super cool. Mourinho’s tongue though…..

By the way, can we have the Special One and CR7 do this?

5 years after Moladun's death, Babasuwe finds love again.

Actor, Babatunde Omidina, better known as Babasuwe has been through a lot in the past few years; from the death of his wife, Omoladun, his NDLEA saga and many more but the good news from his quarters is that the dark-skinned comedian has found love again.
Below are excerpts from his recent interview with PUNCH.

Tell us your background?
I am a special specie created by God. I hail from Igbogbo, Ikorodu, Lagos State but born and bred on the Island. My father was an average Nigerian who was into trading of eye-glasses and my mother was a trader . I am the only child between my parents. My father had three wives. I dropped out of secondary school when I was in form four. Growing up for me was tough but fun. I enjoyed every bit of it because I was quite mischievous. As a teenage, I didn’t really know the importance of education but thank God, I am managing well. I am also a different person from what you see on the screen, a quiet and easy-going person.
How have you been coping without a wife?
It has not been easy but life must go on. I believe whatever happens has been pre-ordained. The death of Omoladun was a great loss I cannot get over in this lifetime. She will remain my best companion. She understood me than any other person on planet earth. At times when we quarrel in the house, she would abuse me on set and that would mark the end of the issue.
Any plan of remarrying?
Yes. In fact pretty soon.

Who is the lucky bride?
You can’t know her for now. She is not an actress because I can’t marry an actress again.
Are you insinuating Omoladun was not a good wife?
No, I don’t mean anything of such. What I mean is that I cannot get someone like Omoladun among the actresses again. Her good acting skills is one of the reasons I loved her but I have decided to check else where for love.
After the death of Omoladun, your step daughter accused you of killing her mother?
That is mere rumour. She later came out to say she never said that. We were all staying in the same building. Omoladun was hypertensive for a long time and I did my best as a husband, a friend, and colleague to take adequate care of her. At a time she spent months at a hospital. The day the bad incident happened, I was about praying when I told my child to go wake Omoladun because we had an appointment. It was this child who ran out to call me and with the help of neighbors, we rushed her to the hospital. The doctor confirmed her death on arrival.

Has her death affected your career?
Not really. There are many people who can take her role but I miss her so much. After her death, I produced “Baba Jaiye” part two and it was a huge success.

Opinion: This tie should bind Funke Akindele, Femi Adebayo but… | By: Lanre Odukoya

Yoruba actors, Funke Akindele and Femi Adebayo, have since proven that they’re masters of their game. The number of lead roles they clinch and corporate deals that rake in millions for them help seal this just as much. But beyond the arts, they tango in matters of the heart. Their romance a couple of years back produced screaming headlines until it headed for the rock
.
How did the affair even end? That was shrouded in secrecy and a lot of half-truths about the break-up were paraded as facts. Anyway, Funke and Femi gave their crush a longer lifetime than necessary. They knew it would end nowhere but the love bug continued to bite until the famous romance put a dampener on the happiness of Femi’s wife, Khadijat.
Today, Funke and Femi have but the ashes of what once made them happy called “marriage”. You see why some are asking that they return to each other’s arms? They share a mutual marital status and whatever they both have learnt in their failed marriages, maybe they would be able to correct together as a lovers who once paired well. No man would envy Femi knowing why he couldn’t marry Funke.
According to a source, his dad, Adebayo Salami is averse to his children marrying anyone from the Christian faith, they were only allowed to pass time with Christian girls anyway. Khadijat, the ex-wife who had three kids with Femi hated her husband’s career. If she had her way, Femi would only resume sessions in the courtroom as a lawyer. And by the way, Femi has an LL.M while Khadijat holds an LL.B degree. She was uncomfortable with how women flocked around Femi and wished she could put a stop to that. Alas, she resorted to finding succour in someone’s arms. The last straw that broke the camel’s back was an incident that ruined Femi emotionally.
He was on the set of a movie when a text message Khadijat meant to send to the “strange man” crept into Femi’s phone instead. It read, “The idiot has left me alone with the kids as usual…” Disheartened Femi was said to have left a movie location angrily and the situation didn’t abate until Khadijat moved for divorce.
Though Khadijat is a Hijab-wearing Muslim, her ex-father in-law was said to have forewarned her not to expect monogamy if she married Femi. It’s actually alien to Oga Bello (as he’s fondly called) who glories in polygamy that produced numerous children. Femi and Funke may look good together, in fact, Funke should be able to cope with polygamy as she’d just severed one from her rested marriage with Kehinde.
Whether the duo still feel anything for each other is one and that the “no Christian spouse” embargo will be relaxed for Funke and Femi is to marry another.

Cristiano Ronaldo reveals the only coach he has friendship with.

I know it can never be Jose Mourinho, his relationship with his fellow country man during the latter’s reign at the Bernabeu was a disaster, dunno if it has remained so.

Newly-crowned UEFA Best Player in Europe, Cristiano Ronalso has worked under a number of coaches in his career; former Manchester United coach, Sir Alex Ferguson, Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho, Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini and renowned Brazilian Luiz Felipe Scolari, but he’s friend with just one of these- Sir Alex Ferguson.

Excerpts from his interview with Spanish publication AS. “Out of all the coaches I worked under, the only friendship I have is with Sir Alex Ferguson – no one else… I worked under Pellegrini and Ancelotti, with whom I get along really well. I’m not in football to make friends, only to triumph.”

Rapper eLDee takes laundry business to a new level

Rapper eLDee who has been absent from the music scene for sometime now has ventured into a new business; Washist. Washist is Nigeria’s first on-demand laundry services specializing in pick-Up, wash, press and delivery of clothes.
“It’s an interesting concept, a pretty obvious one, but our culture teaches us not to be innovative. Washist is by far the simplest of the services we are building, yet it has mega potential, and we have all our ducks in a row at the moment. I stress to my partners that we start small and scale with caution, understanding that many have failed before us. It would end up being more of a logistics nightmare if not properly planned, which is typical in Nigeria for obvious reasons. We have a solid team and we have worked out all the kinks so far.” The father of two elucidated.

Ladies, heard about the new anti-rape nail polish?

Four male college students of the North Carolina State University (pictured above) are working on a new nail polish that protects women against sexual assault. It’s called the rape prevention nail polish or the anti-rape nail polish. Now that’s genius.
According to their facebook page, the aim of their company Undercover Colors, is “to invent technologies that empower women to protect themselves. With our nail polish, any woman will be empowered to discreetly ensure her safety by simply stirring her drink with her finger. If her nail polish changes colour, she’ll know that something is wrong.”
Kelly Oxford; a New York times Best Selling Author commended the idea: “This new nail polish that can detect the date rape drug is great if you think women aren’t trying hard enough not to get raped.”
Andrea Grimes, a Senior Political Reporter at RH Reality Check, pointed out on twitter that “Rape prevention nail polish sounds like a great idea but I’m not sure how you’re going to get men to wear it.”
And of course the invention was greeted with enough backlashes one would expect of such sensitive topic. So I got reactions from 3 different twitter users. Their say:
IjeomaOluo: Women raped by loved ones, family members, dates, friends. Women raped as war tactics. You think a polish would help them?
Lindywest: i am not really that into the “rape prevention” nail polish. how about women don’t have to wear a special nail polish and dunk their fingers in every cocktail to not get raped. But “rape prevention nail polish” is the DEFINITION of “looking like you’re helping.” It’s an impractical fix for ONE specific circumstance.
Ryan MacLean: Instead of finding real prevention methods it perpetuates the idea that women should be held responsible for not getting raped.
