ADO OVER MIKEL OBI'S DELETED TWITTER ACCOUNT

The news isn't that Chelsea midfielder, John Mikel Obi deleted his official twitter yesterday because he allegedly couldn't handle the racial tweets directed at him following his grave mistake during Chelsea's match against Juventus on wednesday.

Chelsea posted some tweets to explain the 25year-old's stance, however I find the tweets confusing. The first, "Not true Mikel quit Twitter due to messages received. He'd wanted to leave for a while & deleted his acct today without looking at it. #CFC"

Few hours later, this came up, "Abuse on social networks is abhorrent. Racist tweets towards Mikel are totally unacceptable. Police informed. #CFC supports strongest action."

If it wasn't about racial tweets, I wonder why the second tweet came up. Anyways he's sorry about the error.

SHAKIRA AND GERARD PIQUE EXPECTING FIRST CHILD

The 35-year-old Grammy winner posted on her website yesterday that she and 25-year-old boyfriend "are very happy awaiting the arrival of our first baby."

It will be recalled that Shakira in an interview in 2009 said she couldn't wait to be a mother, "I really would like to have a big belly."

Now you have it!

BEHIND-THE-SCENE PICTURES OF THE GODS ARE STILL NOT TO BLAME MOVIE

 
 
 
Here’s a peek at the behind-the-scene pictures of The Gods Are Still Not To Blame movie; a modern cinematic adaptation of the Greek Classic, Oedipus.
The movie which premieres in December was shot in locations in Nigeria, Cameroon and Cote d’Ivoire. It employed the use of five languages; English, French, Yoruba, Hausa and Igbo; it however hopes to cement the Nigerian movie industry on the international map.
 
 
 
SYNOPSIS
The thrilling, educative and topical film tells the story of a child who was born to King Adedoyin, while the naming ceremony is in progress, the leading clergy goes into a trance and proclaims that the baby will kill his father and marry his mother. While still trying to grapple with the situation, the traditional leader enters and proclaims the child as an unlucky messenger of the gods.
The child is taken to Cameroon inorder to avert the prophecy. Twenty eight years later, the child is also told the same prophecy which makes him leave Cameroon for Nigeria inorder to deter the prophecy but instead leads hi to fulfill the prophecy.
Noteworthy is that the movie takes an existentialist stance at the role of a man in the fulfilment of his destiny and upholds the view that man, rather than the Supreme Force should be blamed for the consequences of his actions. It is the opinion of the playwright that if the baby had been allowed to live and grow up with his parents instead of living with foster parents in a foreign land, probably the prophecy would not have been fulfilled.
Produced by Funke Fayoyin and Byron Ene, the film is the first cinematic offering of her Catalyst Communications Limited Productions. The stellar cast of Nollywood stars featured include Carol King, Bayo Alawiye, Seun Akindele, Iretiola Doyle, Gabriel Afolayan, Gloria Anozie-Young, Kareem Adepoju, Akin Lewis, Yemi Elebuibon, Dele Odule, Bukky Ajayi, Moji Olaiya, Nobert Young, Funsho Adeolu and introducing Omowunmi Dada.
