  • Erling’s dad removed from seat after celebrating at Bernabeu

    Erling’s dad removed from seat after celebrating at Bernabeu

    Alfie Haaland says he was escorted from his seat at the Bernabeu because Real Madrid fans were “not happy” with his celebrations after Kevin de Bruyne’s equaliser for Manchester City in the Champions League semi-final first leg.

    Video on social media appears to show Erling Haaland’s dad taunting the home fans before being removed from his box.

    Haaland tweeted: “OK. RM was not happy we were celebrating KDB goal.

    “Other than that we had to move because RM fans not happy with 1-1.”

    De Bruyne scored in the 67th minute to cancel out Vinicius Junior’s opener.

    Haaland waved with both hands while smiling at the crowd below him, cupping his ears to the Real Madrid fans and gesticulating, while reports in Spain suggested he threw food at the supporters.

    He tweeted again on Wednesday to say it was “not true” that he had thrown anything.

    “We had some good banter with Madrid fans,” he added. “They were not happy when City scored. Typical.

    “Then we had to move 50 meters away. Nothing more. All happy. Well nearly.”

    The former Manchester City and Leeds midfielder is a regular at City’s matches, where his son has scored 51 goals so far this season.]

    My world crumbled when my dad died – Omoni Oboli

    Popular actress, Omoni Oboli has recounted how she felt when her dad, Matthew Eriyovwe Ukey, passed on in 2017.

    Speaking in an interview with media personality, Chude Jideonwo, Oboli said: “My world crumbled when my dad passed. The next day I drove into Benin. I went to see him at the Morgue. Have you ever seen a dead body? You just know that they are no more there. It’s a shell. We all like to look good, at the end of the day this body is a shell. I saw my dad, I saw my mom and you just know the person you know and love is gone.They call my dad mobility that’s like his nick name .I said ‘Mobility how could you do this to me’? I just kept thinking what am I going to do? How am I ever going to get back from this?”

    Oboli also urged people to be willing to forgive irrespective of what is being done.

    There is almost nothing that someone will do that you won’t forgive if you want to. If you decide you don’t want to forgive, that’s different. But if you want to forgive, there is nothing that someone will do to you that you won’t forgive. We all have to realize first of all that we are all sinners. We are all completely flawed. Nobody is perfect so don’t look for perfection in the next person because you are not even perfect yourself .So we decided very earlier on in the marriage, actually before, that divorce is not an option. So no matter what happens, we are in this forever”.

    My dad was disappointed in me for getting pregnant outside wedlock – Adunni Ade

    Popular actress and filmmaker, Adunni Ade has opened up on her challenges as a single mum, saying that her father was disappointed in her when she got pregnant outside wedlock.

    In a lengthy post shared on Instagram on Friday, the 39-year-old said she felt like the world came caving in on her when she found out she was pregnant with her first child as she was going through a lot.

    The ‘Soole’ star added that her father was hurt and disappointed that his first daughter got pregnant out of wedlock, and he cut off all her financial privileges.

    “These past few days have been overwhelming! I remember when I found out I was pregnant with D’marion, it felt like the world came caving in on me. A whole lot happened to me. My Dad was so hurt that his first daughter was pregnant (out of wedlock, I understood ).

    “I was a senior at college. It was the worst time of my life. All financial support was cut off! I was ill. My mom did all she could to stand by me. I felt as though I had failed in life as my Hero was disappointed in me. I began facing so many challenges in life. My heart was so fragile I thought I’d never make it through because of how terrible my life had become,” she wrote in parts.

    She further revealed she got pregnant again after four years and was angry about going through a similar pain she had experienced. She, however, said she is grateful for her children D’marion and Ayden for giving her a reason to live again.

    “Fast forward 4 years later, Ayden comes along. I recall being so upset! I got to go through the hurt, the pain all over! Damn! But this time around I was more determined! More focused on being successful for my 2 Lil princes. Ayden brought a different vibe to life, to live my life unapologetically.

    “When I tell you my boys are my world, I mean it with every fiber of my existence. I’m nowhere near my goals in life but I tell you something! Things have changed! I get asked a lot how I do it, I simply answer “I just do it!” I recall working 2-3 jobs just to make ends meet. Leave out 4:30 am back after midnight. This consistent hard work is years of labor! These 2 miracles of mine have given me a chance to live again! My drive! My focus! All I have done! All I am! All for my Boys. Thank you D’marion Thank you Ayden for giving me a reason to live again,” she wrote.

    Dad flees after beating 2-year-old son to death

    A Delta State indigene resident in Bayelsa State, simply identified as Vwede, has reportedly flogged his two-year-old son to death.

    The incident which occurred on Sunday, September 26, 2021, at Immiringi Road, in Yenagoa, the State capital, caused pandemonium in the area.

    It was also gathered that the mother of the deceased may have abandoned the child with his father and run away.

    The father, who had since fled the State immediately his son was confirmed dead, was accused of constantly torturing his son.

    He was said to have inflicted serious injuries on the boy on the fateful day.

    After beating his son into stupor, he rushed the boy to Answer Clinic, along the Ruthmore Hotel Road, Immiringi.

    Residents in the area have expressed anger over the development.

    Women Lawyers under the aegis of Do Foundation, have vowed to pursue justice for the victim.

    Do Foundation, which is in forefront of the campaign against gender violence and protection of children, condemned the incident and called on security agents to ensure that the fleeing father of the deceased is arrested.

    The State Coordinator, Do Foundation, Comfort Itoru, said the incident had been reported at the Akenfa Police Station.

    Itoru said her foundation has reached out to other advocacy groups in the State, including the State Gender Response Initiative Team (GRIT), to prevail on Police authorities to investigate and prosecute the suspect who killed an innocent child.

    “We have reached out to other advocacy groups over the incident. We however call on residents of the state not to keep quiet in the face of noticeable violence against the girl child, under aged and women,” Itoru appealed.

  • Rihanna drops lawsuit against her dad

    Rihanna drops lawsuit against her dad

    Popular pop star artist Rihanna Robyn Fenty has dropped her lawsuit against her dad Ronald Fenty. This is coming years after accusing him of using her fame in his favour.

    Rihanna, who was to appear in court on 22 September, approached the court to seek dismissal for her lawsuit against her dad, stating that she wants to reach an agreement outside of court, in order to avert a spectacle around their legal proceedings.

    Rihanna’s legal action against her dad was instituted in 2019, alleging that he was using the family name to promote his venture Fenty Entertainment in 2019, alongside Mr Moses Perkins, who she alleged has been soliciting business by falsely acting as her agent.

    Despite having no authority to act on his daughter’s behalf, Ronald is said to have booked her on a $15million tour in Latin America and two concerts, at the Staples Center in Los Angeles and the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas for $400,000.

    While Rihanna was taking legal action against her father, the two remained in contact.
