I don't care whether Ronaldo attends Ballon d'or gala.: Ribery

The Bayern Munich winger and France international Frank Ribery is concerned only about himself and stated that the decision by Fifa and the France football to extend the voting deadline for the prestigious award could hurt his chances of winning the main prize..

Frank Ribery stated that he does not care whether or not the Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo will attend Fifa Ballo d'Or to be held in January 2014 in Zurich.

C. Ronaldo's potential absence from the Balon d' Or event has been talked about by many following his conflict with Fifa president Sepp Blatter. However, Ribery has stated it clearly that Ronaldo's decision on whether to attend the event or not is not of any interest to him. He speaks:

"I have not been in touch with Ronaldo and I have not discussed him with any colleagues either. Why should I? I don't care whether he attends the gala," 

"I feel honoured to be among the final three candidates and that's why it's only logical for me that I will travel to Zurich."

"I think it's the first time since the introduction of the award that they have extended the voting deadline. It's obviously a shame for me and could be a disadvantage. 

"I do not have any fear, though. I am calm about the outcome."

The winner of the Fifa Ballon d'Or will be announced on January 13, 2014

Nigerian gospel singer, Caroline Sam, popularly known as Maheeda, reveals why she returned to her old lifestyle and posts semi nude photographs on.

The Edo State born christian singer, who was once a prostitute and made an open confession that she has repented and found Christ, said the reason she posted sensuous pictures of herself on her twitter and instagram accounts lately was because she wanted to show the world how sexy she is.

She said despite the fact that she is still spiritually inclined, she does not regret posting her semi-nude pictures on the social-media.

According to her "I'm not posting those nude pictures on the internet to teach people to start going naked, I posted them because I felt I am sexy and I love sexuality.

"In Europe, where I live, at a certain age, parents will start to teach their children about sex education. But it is unfortunate that I came from this part of the world (Africa) where sentiment is attached to everything.

"I'm 31 years old and I can't pretend to behave like a baby or something. I'm sexy and I like it. I'm still spiritually inclined and I have some gospel songs which are not out yet. One of them is Papangolo," she said.

When told that she was supposed to be a role model, she replied: "I think the parents has a lot to do in that respect. They should try as much as possible to prevent their children from going naked on the streets.

"They should teach them sex education. Those nude pictures you see is Maheeda. That is me. I am just expressing myself. I'm sexy and I am only appreciating that fact because I love sexuality," 

She continued by saying that  "even after getting married, I still have this urge of going out to meet a man. But I felt it should not be so. I'm trying to let people know there is a spirit behind prostitution.

"If there were no spirits, why after getting married, I still have such urge. I have everything. I live in Lekki, I'm driving a very big car and my husband gives me whatever I want, so why would I still feel like going into prostitution?

"There is a spirit behind it. I continued prostitution even after getting married. The only thing that changed me was being born again and being delivered."

Maheeda had received several criticisms as regards her semi  nude pictures on twitter and instagram.  

Her semi-nude photos led to her being banned from the social media site Instagram.

" I didn't buy four cars in one day o......." Iyanya speaks out. Advises artistes to invest wisely.

Iyanya Mbuk, considers 2013 his best year ever. Besides sealing endorsement deals with MTN, Zinox Computers and Solo Phones, his appearance fees have also tripled.

Pointing to the fleet of cars, neatly packed in his Lekki, Lagos home, the kukere master is quick to react to what he describes as false stories currently making the rounds. Listen to him:

“I didn’t buy four cars in one day o. I only bought just one which I posted on Instagram. So I don’t know where people got their own story from. We have four cars in this house. I also do not get it when people say we (artistes) show off on social media.

 

“I mean if God has blessed me, there is no reason to hide that. We are not showing off. After all, everyone knows Inyanya’s story. Whenever I post pictures of my cars or money on Instragram, the public should understand that it is just my own way of saying if God can do it for me, He can for you too.”

“I am not half as appreciated in Nigeria as I am overseas. I guess that is the many rewards that ‘Kukere’ has earned me within a short period of time.  The track is the most requested of all my songs at home and abroad. The Soul Train nomination was the icing on the cake for me, I felt proud walking and sitting close to my role models at the award ceremony. It was a life-changing moment for me,” he says.

“The truth is that I came up with Kukere to make money because Nigerians were not listening to RnB . See where it has gotten me today,” he adds.


“I had to work harder because at some point things were not moving well or fast for me. So it took me five years to study the industry in order to understand what people really wanted or expected of me. I remember I would walk on the street and people would ask me what was going on, as regards my career, when in reality I was doing RnB music but people were not listening.”


“I come from a very humble background and have also struggled to be where I am. Since I achieved nothing by my own strength or might, I don’t think it is worth talking or boasting about.

“I am also looking into investing in the oil and gas sector in the New Year, because I feel investment is key. Artistes must learn to invest because the fame is temporary and sometimes a façade. Truth is you will not always be in the spotlight and you may become bankrupt if you are careless with funds.”

Looking into the new year, Inyanya dreams, saying, “My craft has no doubt gotten better with time. I plan to remain true to my culture and will also be releasing a single in my native Efik language soon. I desire to be one of Nigeria’s greatest music exports next year.”
