ANGELINA JOLIE MIGHT NOT LISTEN TO MADONNA, BUT THAT SHE'S ANGRY HER KIDS LISTEN TO MADONNA? NONSENSE!!!

Madonna / Angelina Jolie 

The national enquirer reports that,
“A long-simmering feud between Angelina Jolie andMadonna has hit the Oscar-winning actress where it hurts — at home!” “Sources” tell the magazine that Jolie’s daughters Zahara,Shiloh and Vivienne “can’t get enough of the Material Girl’s tunes.” “It’s no secret that Angie has never been a fan of Madonna’s acting, but her music really makes her cringe,” 
Explaining that Jolie “was more of a punk rocker and into new wave” while growing up.

But if national enquirer's record with sources and Angelina jolie's anything to go by, then you'll believe the magazine at your own perile. remeber when the mag' falsely reported a source claiming that Jolie's son, Maddox had a crush on jennifer Aniston? yeah, we all found out it was false!

Another inside source's already called the Jolie, Madonna report, NONSENSE!!!

Ejike's consistently played in coach Stephen Keshi's new look eagles. 
Super Eagles' coach Stephen Keshi said of Ejike,
“He's been consistent with us for eight months and the idea is for him not to rush into slave contracts, as had been the case, if they are beginning to get attention from clubs abroad, we are happy for them, because they will enrich the national team and also better the lives of their families”.

PREGNANT AMBER ROSE STOPS SMOKING AS WIZKHALIFA PREPARES FOR FATHERHOOD

Expectant duo - WizKhalifa and Amber Rose

An inside source reportedly told 'radar online' that, though WizKhalifa and Amber Rose were not prepping for parenthood, but the couple's realisation that Amber's now with child's excited the duo...Now a lot of adjustments had to be made...one of them's the fact that Amber Rose' stopped smoking!

Wiz' had tweeted weeks back he was prepared for fatherhood, this we believe was to prepare our minds for this pregnancy news.
And on Philadephia's Hot 107.9FM Wizkhalifa had denied the pregnancy rumours this month saying:
"I want babies. I definitely want to have kids for sure. Oh, you all think Amber's pregnant? Cause I've been asked that. Do you think Amber's pregnant?"
"A lot of people didn't even know she dyed her hair. They thought she was a natural blonde. I'm saying here that is not what people think it is".
"But, she will have my baby in life, and you guys will know when she's pregnant. But it's not the time now for people to start going crazy."

If Amber's pregnant the next question is, a boy or girl? We'll keep you posted.

HE CONTESTED AGAINST YAR'ADUA, WORKED FOR GOODLUCK...NOW HE'S RESIGNED...WHY POWER MINISTER NNAJI HAD TO GO...

Barth Nnaji

President Goodluck Jonathan on Monday accepted Minister of power, Professor Nnaji’s resignation from office with immediate effect.
In response to Nnaji's resignation, the president thanked him for his services to the nation under the present administration and wished him well in his future endeavour.
The former Minister is yet to make any comment on his resignation, there are reports linking him to two of the companies that were initially cleared to participate in the forthcoming bidding process for some of the nation’s power generation and distribution companies on September 25, 2012.
Before his resignation, Professor Nnaji had been at loggerheads with electricity unions over the on-going reforms in the power sector and the privitisation of the Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN), was totally commited to the privatisation of the power sector.
A major source of that conflict has been the issue of the severance benefits to be paid to the staff of the PHCN after the sale of the 18 companies produced by the unbundling of the company.
Prof Nnaji is the director and a founder of the Automation and Robotics Laboratory at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. He was made a Professor of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering in 1992.
He is also the founder of the first indigenously owned power generating company in Nigeria and was also a former minister for Science and Technology in the country.
He contested for Nigeria's Presidency as Better Nigeria Party's Presidential candidate against late president Yaradua and others in 2007.
