PHOTOS: WHAT TINSEL HAS JOINED TOGETHER: ENE&CHUKS OF TINSEL SERIES TIE THE KNOT

Yaaaay! I screamed (for joy) when I first heard this gist. Florence Uwaleke and Iyke Okechukwu, popularly known as Ene and Chuks on M-Net’s Tinsel series had their traditional wedding ceremony on Friday 25th January 2013.

It’s good to learn the two Tinsel lovebirds are getting married for real. Oh Nice! I remember their traditional wedding in the series, so it was also going to be real. Awww! How sweeet! #okbye.

Congrats to the couple! May their union be rock solid! Amen

PHOTOS: ACTOR ODUNLADE TURNS MONSTER IN NEW MOVIE

He’s played the role of father, husband, Pastor, loverboy, houseboy; he’s been stubborn and funny in movies, now you’re about to see talented actor, Odunlade Adekola play a totally different role- a monster in a new movie titled, Kudi Klepto.

The movie is produced by Yemi Adekoya and directed by Bayo Tijani. Maybe his own monster is not the scary type but going by these pictures…..just keep your fingers.

BRAZILIAN FOOTBALL LEGEND, PELE'S STATUE TO BE UNVEILED IN JUNE

A bronze statue of Brazilian football legend, Pele will be unveiled in June 2 during a Brazil-England friendly game at the Maracana Stadium Brazil.

The statue which is currently worked on by prominent Brazilian sculptor, Ique captures the goal the 73 year-old ex-footballer scored in Brazil’s 4-1 win against Czechoslovakia during the 1970 World Cup in Mexico.

It weighs 300-kilogram (660 pound) and the sculptor admits it is a difficult work, “it is the moment when Pele jumps and pumps his fist into the air to celebrate his goal,” he revealed.

AFCON 2013: NIGERIA PETITIONS CAF OVER POOR OFFICIATING

Asides the not-too-impressive performance of the Super Eagles since the whole African Cup of Nations (AFCON) tournament started, the officials of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) think Nigeria has been a victim of unfair refeering decisions.

Citing the two games played so far, (against Burkina Faso and Zambia), they claim the bookings were not only too much but Ogenyi Onazi’s red card was uncalled for.

They have therefore penned their complaints to CAF and even requested for fairer treatment.

Did NFF go overboard? Or was writing the petition right and timely?
