COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT SCANDAL: JOY BEWAJI RETRACTS STATEMENT

Here's the latest from the copyright infringement issue between Nigerian writer/publicist, Joy Bewaji and Big Brother UK housemate, Makosi Musambasi. You won't understand if youu didn't read the initial post on it, check the link below it.

ON THE MATTER WITH MAKOSI

To address the issues concerning the presentation of the book: "Self Love: The Ultimate Choice" by Makosi, it is imperative to state that there was an absolute breakdown in communication at some point that resulted to a misunderstanding, which escalated to shock, anger and a total fall-out.

We have since been summoned to a round-table dialogue; and all misunderstanding and disagreements have been laid to rest. As it appears, no one has a horn to their head after all.

I do understand the need to "grow above" certain situations, but my first response was to react angrily, and for that I will take a bullet.

At this point, after proper intervention and mediation, I would like to retract my previous letter as it contains scathing remarks that came straight from a point of utter disbelief.

I trust this would conclude the matter.

Thank you.

Joy Bewaji

C RONALDO WRITES AMERICAN AUTHORITIES FOR FAN'S RELEASE

Remember the guy who ran to the pitch and gave his hero, C Ronaldo a sweet hug during the match between Real Madrid and Chelsea at the Sun Life Stadium, Miami in August? 19-year Ronald Gjoka has been arrested for that action- that harmless hug. Not only did he spend two days in jail, he will be facing two charges, (trespassing and disorderly conduct).

The Real Madrid star got wind of the case and wrote a letter to the Miami-Dade state attorney's office, to plead for the boy's release. "My name is Cristiano Ronaldo, and I play football (soccer) for Real Madrid, I was playing at Sun Life Stadium last month when a fan entered the field. His name is Ronald Gjoka, a young college student. We hugged, and we spoke for a while, until security arrived to escort him off the field. He was not aggressive or violent in ANY way. In addition, he did not resist security or police in any possible way."

He continued, "I am concerned because I understand he may face potential problems with immigration and with his college if the criminal charges against him are not dismissed. I understand your position and the importance of enforcing rules and laws. However, I respectfully request that you and your office reconsider this decision and dismiss the two criminal charges this young man faces. Sincerely, Cristiano Ronaldo."

Unfortunately, C Ronaldo's emotional epistle wasn't honoured, infact a spokesman for the state attorney, Ed Griffith said as nice as the letter is, it would have no effect because Ronaldo wasn't the aggrieved party. The case against the kid would be concluded tomorrow.

I really hope he will be discharged and acquitted. Poor soul!

The newlyweds who are regarded as the oldest couple in Britain tied the knot last week after dating for 20 years. Patience is really a virtue.

The groom's 63 year-old son was bestman. With a combined age of 188, they also secured a spot in the Guinness Book Of World Records. The previous record was held by a couple whose combined age is 193.

IT PAYS TO DO GOOD. ASK ACTOR, MIKE EZURUONYE

Actor, Mike Ezuruonye posted an interesting (real) story on his facebook page today, it revolves around doing good. Pls read on. (Even though this reads like a movie script).

"There was this day I was travelling to Abuja to shoot a movie and I got into the aircraft and met this woman, she was older than my mother. As I made to

put my bag in the overhead compartment, I greeted her but she didn't answer me. I just ignored her and

sat down. On arrival in Abuja, the woman was struggling to get her luggage from the compartment and I just stretched my hand and helped her to get it.

She asked for it without a thank you but I refused to give it to her, offering to help her take it down. On getting out of the aircraft, she again requested for her luggage but I said, madam I'll take it to the arrival hall for you and she looked at me with bewilderment. When we got to the arrival hall I turned to the woman and handed her luggage to her and as I made to leave, she called me by my name. I was surprised and retorted, so madam you even know my name.

But why did you not answer me when I greeted you on board the aircraft. She then said, "Mike, I've come across a lot of your Nollywood mates and they seem

to be pigheaded so that is why I always want to distant myself from them." I just smiled and told her I'm not like that."

She asked where I was going and I felt she wanted me to ride with her into town. I told her I was in Abuja to shoot a movie.

I then turned to leave but some four or five policemen who must have come to pick her told me to wait. I said what's my own, I've helped her to this place and I want to go. They however insisted that I should wait. I didn't really know who the woman was but the long and short of it

all was that she ended up giving me three plots of land in Abuja."
