Chelsea sacked Steward for calling Cesc Fabregas a 'snake'

A steward was sacked by Chelsea for calling former Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas a "snake". 

I think the Steward is right, Snakes everywhere in Chelsea team. Except the Brazilians and the new young  guys, the rest are all traitors.

Dady Loves you!

MANDELA TO NIGERIA...

“YOU know I am not very happy with Nigeria. I have made that very clear on many occasions. Yes, Nigeria stood by us more than any nation, but you let yourselves down, and Africa and the black race very badly. Your leaders have no respect for their people. They believe that their personal interests are the interests of the people. They take people’s resources and turn it into personal wealth. There is a level of poverty in Nigeria that should be unacceptable. I cannot understand why Nigerians are not more angry than they are.

“What do young Nigerians think about your leaders and their country and Africa? Do you teach them history? Do you have lessons on how your past leaders stood by us and gave us large amounts of money? You know I hear from Angolans and Mozambicans and Zimbabweans how your people opened their hearts and their homes to them. I was in prison then, but we know how your leaders punished western companies who supported Apartheid.

“What about the corruption and the crimes? Your elections are like wars. Now we hear that you cannot be president in Nigeria unless you are Muslim or Christian. Some people tell me your country may break up. Please don’t let it happen.

“Let me tell you what I think you need to do. You should encourage leaders to emerge who will not confuse public office with sources of making personal wealth. Corrupt people do not make good leaders. Then you have to spend a lot of your resources for education.

“Educate children of the poor, so that they can get out of poverty. Poverty does not breed confidence. Only confident people can bring changes. Poor, uneducated people can also bring change, but it will be hijacked by the educated and the wealthy...give young Nigerians good education. Teach them the value of hard work and sacrifice, and discourage them from crimes which are destroying your image as a good people.”

Destiny Child ... By Barr Anozie Obi

"Oga na 3 for 100 naira", Deji paid for the oranges and he began to think to himself; this woman selling oranges in traffic was a sales executive just like him, she sold oranges and he sold houses. He thought of the days when he used to help his mum sell pure water after school and it dawned on him that he could actually have been the one selling oranges but for the grace of God. He called the woman back and gave her N5000. The orange seller and his driver were both shocked but he said to them "I have been there before and I understand what you are going through" The difference between a mama put cook and a chef is the grace of God! You could pay N500 for a very tasty meal at a mama put under a canopy and then you visit an upscale restaurant and pay N7000 and the food tastes bland!

Don't ever get to a stage in your life when you believe things are working for you because you know how to do it, its the grace of God on your life! The bible said in Deuteronomy 8: 11-18 (ESV) 12lest, when you have eaten and are full and have built good houses and live in them, 13 and when your herds and flocks multiply and your silver and gold are multiplied and all that you have is multiplied, 14 then your heart be lifted up, and you forget the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery, 15 who led you through the great and terrifying wilderness, with its fiery serpents and scorpions and thirsty ground where there was no water, who brought you water out of the flinty rock, 16 who fed you in the wilderness with manna that your fathers did not know, that he might humble you and test you, to do you good in the end. 17 Beware lest you say in your heart, ‘My power and the might of my hand have gotten me this wealth.’ 18 You shall remember the LORD your God, for it is He who gives you power to get wealth, that He may confirm his covenant that He swore to your fathers, as it is this day.

Always put God first and acknowledge Him always. The day you begin to feel like you don't need God is the beginning of the end for you. Let humility be your fragrance. There are no successful men, all we have are HELPED men! God used someone for you, it was not by your strength or efforts. It just pleased God to promote you. You too can be a Social Media Evangelist, share and repost the Gospel of Jesus Christ so that others can be blessed just like you were blessed. Thank you for reading.

Celine Dion's husband Rene Angelil is dead

Celine Dion's husband Rene Angelil, who discovered the Canadian pop diva and long managed her career, died aged 73, after a struggle with cancer.

Dion announced his passing in a Twitter message, saying: "Rene Angelil passed away this morning at his home in Las Vegas after a long and courageous battle against cancer."

News of Angelil's death triggered an outpouring of sympathy from Dion's fans, with the singer's name trending on Twitter worldwide.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau tweeted his condolences to Dion and to Angelil's six children, including three from a previous marriage.



Angelil's home city of Montreal announced that flags would be flown at half mast in his honor, as mayor Denis Coderre paid tribute to "a monument of the entertainment world."

Born in Quebec to Lebanese-Syrian immigrants, Angelil started out in music dabbling in yeye -- French 60s music -- before trying his hand at comedy, and finally settling on a career in music management.

As a talent agent, he signed one of the biggest names in Quebec music, Ginette Reno, but the arrangement ended abruptly in 1981, leaving Angelil destitute and desperate.

Just then, another opportunity arose.

At age 12, Dion had recorded a demo tape with her mother and sent it to Angelil. He was so struck by her voice that he signed her to an exclusive management contract -- mortgaging his house to finance her debut album.

"I'd never heard anything like it. For me, it was the most beautiful voice in the world," he would recall in interviews.

The businessman set out to make Dion the biggest singer in the world.

His protegee and future wife went on to become one of pop's music's best-known voices, winning five Grammy awards including for the "Titanic" theme song "My Heart Will Go On," and collaborating with stars from Stevie Wonder to Barbra Streisand.

- 'All my life' -

Behind the scenes, Angelil invested Dion's earnings from concerts and 220 million albums sold worldwide in restaurants, dance clubs and golf courses. He launched clothing lines, perfumes and other Dion branded merchandise, building an empire of wealth for them to share.

"There is no other manager like him," Dion once said. "Ninety-nine point nine percent of what's happened to me (my success) is because of Rene."

In 1994, when she was 19 and he was 45, the couple married in an extravagant wedding ceremony that was televised live in Canada, and splashed all over glossy magazines.

"My mother wanted to kill him," Dion said later.

Eventually the couple landed in Las Vegas where Dion played nearly 1,000 shows, earning her more millions.

Their fairytale life, however, took a turn when Angelil was diagnosed with throat cancer in 2013. A year later he stepped down as Dion's manager -- a position he held for more than 30 years.

After taking a break from performing to care for her husband, Dion returned to performing on the Strip in 2015 at Angelil's urging.

In a candid interview with USA Today she described dealing with the pending loss of "the only boyfriend I've ever had" and "the leader of the band all my life."

In a soft voice, she recalled: "I'll say, 'You're scared? I understand. Talk to me about it,'" pausing before adding: "And Rene says to me, 'I want to die in your arms.' OK, fine, I'll be there, you'll die in my arms."

Who left DNA in your birth Canal

Each time a man connects with a woman sexually and releases his life form energy within her, he leaves a part of his information (DNA) in her birth canal. If she doesn't clean herself, his energy remain inside of her. That imprint can often create illusional sexual addiction to the individual.

When some  decide to have multiple partners, it can sometimes send mixed emotional signals within the inside of the body's vibration system. Women must be careful of different energies or spiritual forces polluting their internal temple. You are a sacred doorway, where life is intended to pass through, respect yourself, use your gifts wisely!

Just think about it and ask yourself... Ever wonder why they call it sexual intercourse (INTER-Course)? It's an inter(nal) course that unites man and woman, mind with mind, spirit with spirit, or energy with energy. This is something that a condom can't protect you against because energy is behind the elements of all flesh.

There is no such thing as "Casual" Sex or "Friends with Benefits"... No, No, No, I Don't Think So!!! Intimate activity intricately entwines the energies between two people. Sex creates a powerful exchange of energy between those involved. These connections, imprints and debris are left upon the mind, soul and spirit for a long time because they are not easily purged or cleansed.

‘Casual sex’ with multiple partners can intertwine the energies and spirits of a lot of people into your own aura if they are not severed and cleansed. You become joined to every person with whom your partner has slept, as well as all the partners those people had.

This type of "soul clutter" can be felt by your partner's subconscious. Even if they are not completely in tune or aware of the extra-curricular sexual activities, they still are able to sense the subtle disturbances of multiple energies and/or familiar spirits that have entered causing restlessness and inner turmoil.

The longer and more intimate the contact with another person, the more powerful the reinforcement and the interaction of the bond becomes, and all the more difficult it is for them to untangle and leave.

Soul stains, transference of odors, perceptive connections and even mutually formed habits are now left to burden the psyche long after that relationship has ended.

Janet Jackson Undergoing Tests for Throat Cancer

It has been reported that superstar Janet Jackson is currently undergoing tests for throat cancer.

The report comes after the 49-year-old singer revealed that she had no choice but to postpone the first dates of the next leg of her ‘Unbreakable World Tour’, which was due to kick off on January 9th, as she needed to undergo surgery.

It is now being claimed that doctors have discovered a tumour on her vocal chords.

A source revealed: “Doctors found a growth on Janet’s vocal chords that could be serious

“It’s a medical condition that has to be taken care of immediately.”

In spite of the very serious health scare, Janet is said to be optimistic about hitting the road later on in the year, with the insider adding to RadarOnline: “Janet said she knows that with prayers and her will, she’ll be back out on the road in the spring or early summer.”

Janet previously postponed shows in October in order to rest her voice, and doctors have now sadly warned that if she is battling cancer then she might be left unable to sing.

Speaking to the site, Dr. Stuart Fischer explained: “God forbid that this should be cancer of the larynx. That would abruptly end her ability to ever perform again. Singing would be impossible.

“Surgery would be very complex, and followed by months of radiation treatment.”

Jazz singer Natalie Cole has passed on aged 65 - by Femi Odugbemi

Jazz singer Natalie Cole has passed on aged 65. Her father Nat King Cole's classic interpretations of Jazz standards cut my teeth in the appreciation of jazz music. But it was Natalie's amazing re-recordings of those standards in that landmark album "Unforgettable" that matured my listening ears for the nuances of big band scores. Her voice was a formidable musical instrument. But she did not just sing, she purred. The magic & drama of her rendition transported you into the spiritual landscape of a musical composition. You not only heard the music, you saw it, you felt it. And that's when you come to become at one with its soul. And Natalie was the modern day fairy godmother of this flight of musical fancy. The crown of THE Queen of jazz music, for me, was handed from Ella Fitzgerald to Natalie Cole. And how sad today that at the relatively young age of 65 we must ruefully accept the painful reality that our 'Queen' is dead...but still I hear the beat and I smile because indeed in her music, long live the Queen!
