EME helmsman and self-styled Mr Capable, Banky W recently shot the video of his Good Good Loving song. Featured in the video as his leading lady is gorgeous ex-Tinsel star, Damilola Adegbite of the Telema Duke fame.
Also featured in the song are some of his celeb friends, Eldee, Wizkid, Lynxxx, Efya to mention a few. We can always trust Banky W for another mind-blowing love song and going by these pictures, the video is going to be awesome.
You ask, what other thing can he wish for asides victory for his club. You're right but he wants the victory to be delivered through him. The Brazilian footballer has a great admiration for Spanish goal-keeper, Iker Casillas and he would be honoured if he scores against him in the Confederations Cup final.
"Casillas is one of the greatest keepers in the world – now and always. I have huge respect and admiration for him. Everyone would love to have him in their side, but on Sunday I hope to have the honour of scoring against him". He revealed.
The 2011/2012 South American Footballer of the Year award recipient continued, "It's going to be a great game. Everyone is really looking forward to it. It's a clash between two historic national sides, two teams with a lot of tradition. Spain with their star players and Brazil, with their stars. I hope that it's a match which everyone enjoys and that Brazil end as the winners.
The ex-Santos forward who scored about 3 goals in the ongoing tournament and provided the two assists, that gave Brazil a 2-1 win over Uruguay in the semi-final has joined reigning laLiga Champions, Barcelona.
Relax Neymar, if you don't toss the net in this tournament, you can do it in LaLiga.
Few days ago, some alleged marijuana pictures believed to be posted on actress, Tonto Dikeh's instagram generated a lot of controversy in the social media. Infact, an NDLEA agent who got wind of the issue said she might face 15-year prison sentence if found in possession of the narcotics. The Rivers-State born thespian has however cleared the air, insisting they were all made up.
"As much as I would like to ignore the current issue on hemp, I think I owe well-meaning people some clarification. It is so easy the misconception that can come from a picture- the genius of technology.
If you cannot find me holding a wrap of marijuana then you may want to slow down on your assumptions. We shouldn't use our platforms to spread half-truths
A fan wrote those words with herbs on my birthday on instagram, and I replied: "Thank you #teampoko". Now, how does someone else's action become my crime?
If I said those words ('Mi smoke ganja, mi smoke weed, while my hatez smoke ma gossip' ) I will stand by them, but I didn't, and just because it is convenient for people to believe the lies, still doesn't make it the truth.
The whole thing is falsified by people who just love to have fun at other's expense. Let's put some thought to some of the things we write. Don't do cut-and-paste. The original pictures are there to see; but no! That is too boring to be the truth.
We want the truth to be nasty and spicy for our enjoyment, even if it is a pack of lies. Visit my instagram page and see if the original picture is the same as the ones being circulated.
