It’s easy to forget how old Cristiano Ronaldo is, especially when you look at him- he does look like a man ten years younger. And that’s no accident- while he certainly does spend hours at the gym it’s clear that he eats wisely.. but it doesn’t mean eating less, but rather more!
The Portuguese footballing superstar shares what has for breakfast, with a selection of ham and cheeses, croissants, toast with avocado, yoghurt and a lot of fruit, and washing it down with freshly squeezed fruit juices and coffee.
According to reports in the Sun, Ronaldo claims one of the secrets to his success was to “eat regularly” and admitted he can “eat up to six small meals a day.”
His favourite option is apparently the bacalhau a braz, a plate with cod, onions, potatoes and scrambled eggs.
Chef Lavrador told Le10Sport: “Ronaldo eats all sorts of dishes, as a responsible athlete he is, but the one he likes the most is fish like gilt-head bream, swordfish and sea bass.”
The General Superintendent of The Deeper Life Bible Church, Pastor William Kumuyi, has advised the federal government to look beyond politicians and set up a formidable team that would get Nigeria out of its presence economic challenges.
Kumuyi said this yesterday at a youths programme organised by the church at its headquarters in Gbagada, Lagos.
The programme, tagged The Gathering of Unstoppable Achievers, brought together thousands of youths from across Lagos and its environs. It featured workshop for students, concert and experience sharing by successful youths who against all odds are walking tall in different sectors of our national life.
He said that the federal government must as a matter of urgency set up a strong team of selfless and proficient Nigerians to come together and fashion out ways of addressing Nigeria’s economic challenges.
In his address, the Chairman, Centre for Values and Leadership, Prof Pat Utomi, challenged youths to develop their leadership and entrepreneurship qualities as that remains a major panacea for growth and development in Nigeria.
He opined that the progress of any leaders comes from entrepreneurship as people make something out of nothing.
Utomi said that Nigeria is a critical example that we are only extracting rent and we fight ourselves over the money realised from oil and other mineral resources.
Utomi noted that the spirit of enterprise and leadership is at the heart of any nation to escape and triumph over misery. Wealth is created out of imagination of people. You must recongnise that to be successful as an entrepreneur in a big way.
He stressed that the only thing that will take Nigeria out of its economic challenges is true leadership, saying “l think it is time to realise in Nigeria that we must change course. To have people in political office with low capacity to understand our problem and solve them is really a disservice to our country.
Former Miss World Agbani Darego and hubby Ishaya Danjuma have welcomed their first child, a son, in London
The couple, who concealed the news of the pregnancy for all of nine months, gave birth in July 2018.
Agbani, CEO of AD by Agbani, married retired General Danjuma’s son Ishaya, in 2017 at a private wedding ceremony in Marakesh, Morocco.
The couple maintained a low key, keeping their marriage off the prying eyes of the public. Their first public appearance was at Ishaya’s dad, General Theophilus Yakubu Danjuma’s, 80th birthday party last December.
While Ishaya is actively involved in his family business, Agbani helms her eponymous ready-to-wear denim and leisurewear fashion company.
Agbani was crowned Most Beautiful Girl in Nigeria 2001. Her star shone beyond the shores of Nigeria when in the same year, she went ahead to beat other contestants from around the world to be crowned as Miss World.

Ikeji’s engagement to her one-time ex-boyfriend was announced in March by her sisters. Following speculations that Don Jazzy was the father of the baby, after the news of the pregnancy broke, he went on his twitter handle @donjazzy to refute the claim. He wrote, “It wasn’t me”; to which fans sympathised with him for not getting his crush to marry him. @Lindarome20 tweeted, “Lol bro, take heart; we your loyal fans are patiently waiting for your own wedding, and right in the reception, I will throw *my dear*shaku shaku nice song don babaJ.” @Adebayorh1 wrote, “So @DONJAZZY, on top those crushing on @lindaikeji, you weren’t the one..mr man, are you kidding me right now?” NAN reports that after the announcement of Ikeji’s engagement in March, Don jazzy shared a picture of himself being consoled by friends with the caption: (crying emojis) Kai Linda is engaged.

Another catchy statement from Nigerian singer David Adeleke, aka Davido has sent the media agog.
Uploading a picture of him and his trending girlfriend, Chioma Avril, beaming with smiles in an aircraft, Davido said via his Twitter handle @iam_Davido on Wednesday: “Bought already … it’s not soup. It’s hard work and ambition!”
Thus, news went viral of Davido buying a private jet.
This is coming few weeks after the singer reportedly procured the acclaimed N45m worth Porsche car as a surprise birthday gift for Miss Avril, and two days after he was said to have facilitated a cooking show deal worth between N60million and N100million for her.
Like the Porsche and the cooking deal, Davido or his management is yet to give detail of the aircraft.
His bodyguard, TJ, declined to make any comments on the aircraft.
“I am security; I can’t discuss my boss with you. If you are not okay with the news, you can ‘burst’ it.
“This is not about not being okay with the news; we only need more tips on the aircraft, as his message on Instagram was not detailed,” our reporter explained.
“Well, talk to the management,” he insisted. And when our reporter asked for the contact of his new management,” he said: “ I will have to ask them first and get back to you.”
He never did.
Reports say the aircraft is expected to arrive in two weeks.

There, they brought the Coachella vibes with them; with them sitting among thousands of fans in yellow Warriors shirts, the scene brought to mind part of Bey's first Coachella show, which featured her and scores of background dancers dressed in yellow.
In a wide-ranging interview, they covered a range of topics, including Kanye's tweets, red carpets and Kimye house rules.
Here's what we learned:
1. Tristan's cheating
Kim was the first of the Kardashians to openly comment on the reports that Khloe's boyfriend Tristan cheated on her sister while she was pregnant with their daughter, True.
"I don't even know how to describe it besides it's just so [messed] up," Kim said about the situation - using a slightly stronger word than messed.
"We really were rooting for Khloe - and we still are. She's so strong and she's doing the best that she can - it's really a sad situation all over."

Kim looked like she wanted to say more but refrained.
"I kind of made this rule with my brother: if there's a baby involved, I'm going to keep it cute and classy and not talk too bad. I'm going to try not to say anything so negative because one day True is going to see this and it's just so messed up."
"She wants to have some alone time with the baby and figure out what her next steps are," Kim said.
"I think it must be so hard to have your heart broken and fall in love all in a day or two - it all happening at the same time," Kim added,referring to True's arrival just days after the reports of Tristan's cheating first appeared.
"She's going to get through it, and all we can do is be there for her and the baby."
2. Kimye have a no phones rule in the house

Perhaps the biggest shock revelation was that the Kardashian-West household has a no phones policy in place.
"[Kanye] always talks about how we should not have our phones first thing in the morning.
"And in the house when we're with the kids, let's not have our phones. It's our rule that we really try to live by."
The queen of social media has no phone time? We all need to take note.
3. Kim isn't actually that keen on the name Chicago
Prior to their most recent arrival, Kim had told Ellen, she wanted a baby name with one syllable to match her other children North and Saint.
But, somehow, she ended up with a three-syllable name.
"It kind of messes with me, I'm not going to lie. I really like the one syllable thing," Kim admits.
And actually the other names Kimye were considering are really normal...
"We were going to name her Jo, because of my Grandma, Mary-Jo. Or we were going to go with Grace...and we ended up with Chicago," says Kim in a bewildered tone.
She then goes on to say she's unsure how the name Chicago even came about.
The mother-of-three adds that she thinks the name is "cool and different"... but totally gets subbed down to Chi (pronounced Shy).... "still one syllable," she reassures herself.
4. Kanye hates red carpets

Image captionWe would never have guessed
Being half of the one of the world's most photographed couples, you think you'd have to love being in the limelight.
Perhaps not.
Looking through a number of pictures of the two together, Ellen points out Kanye's scowl, and refers to a conversation she had with him about how he doesn't seem to smile in public.
According to Kim, it's to do with a dislike for press events.
"He hates red carpets, but [in the above photo] I was like, "Oh, I didn't just spend three hours getting ready - you had better stand on this red carpet for two seconds!"
No man who waited three hours for his wife to get ready is ever going to smile.
5. Kim is a bit of a pro at Family Fortunes
"I'm really, really, really good," she says of her upcoming appearance on the US equivalent quiz show Family Feud.
She also reveals she was obsessed with the show as a teen, saying she watched it in her father's office when she was supposed to be working.
(Isn't work experience the best?)
6. Kanye played Connect 4 during his daughter's delivery

Speaking about the birth of the couple's latest baby, Chicago, Kim described using a surrogate mother as the "best experience".
In the delivery room, she said: "The moment she was getting the epidural, I was like thank God this is not me."
Kim revealed she had her sister, Kourtney - and NOT her husband - with her at the birth for support. Kanye was in the next room "playing Connect 4 with his friends". Natch.
"It's his favourite game - he's the best at it," she adds.
Connect 4? Really? Is it even difficult to be good at it?
7. Kim was surprised to see Kanye back on Twitter

Kanye recently rejoined Twitter - and don't we know it.
The rapper hasn't wasted any time using the platform to sermonise and spread the (somewhat cryptic) Yeezy philosophy.
"I didn't even know he got his Twitter again - until I started seeing tweets come in from other people, retweeting them," Kim said.
"I was like, 'Wait, is this real?' At night, he came in and was like, 'Did you see my tweets??!'
She decided to do the decent thing and follow him back. After all, he needs to get his follower count up.
8. Kim is as confused as the rest of us over Kanye's tweets
Asked about the meaning of some of her husband's tweets, however, Kim admitted she was at as much of a loss as the rest of us.
Ellen wondered about one of the tweet exchanges between the couple, and asked what Kanye meant when he said: "Sometimes you have to get rid of everything."
"I was very confused about that one," Kim admits.
"What did he mean?" asks Ellen.
"I don't know... it didn't mean EVERYTHING," Kim says, with slight uncertainty in her voice.
"But you live with him..." persists Ellen.
"Yeah, it didn't mean me..." she says. Hmmm - let's hope so....
9. North is not thrilled about being a big sister
"She does not share with Saint, she does not - hardly - talk to Saint."
With Chicago she is getting "better".
Kim describes her "shock" when the day before the interview, North offered to share her popcorn with Saint.
"That was such a big moment in my household yesterday."
"Saint is nicer than North, I will say that."
As a parent, though, are you even allowed to say that?
10. Wedding anniversaries are on Kanye
Kim admitted that the pair are big into going on holiday at the moment, and mused that it would be a nice idea to go somewhere for their upcoming fourth anniversary.
"We're really into taking trips these days," she said. "I think it would be good to take one with just the two of us. A house full of three kids is wild - I can't even explain it."
Asked whether Kim would have a plane waiting and just surprise her husband, she waivered.
"But his birthday is the next week, so I feel like he should do the anniversary and I'll do his birthday... that's a good trade."
Seems like a fair deal to us.
Kim added for good measure: "I'll just remind him its our anniversary."
11. Saint can spell the word gargantuan
That's right. A two-year-old can spell a word you still have to use spellcheck for.
"I've never seen a kid speak the way he speaks," Kim says of her Yeezy protege.
"He has such amazing vocabulary and I know it's like such a Kanye thing to say, like, 'Oh my kid's a genius', but if I'm saying it, it's real," she says, tongue in cheek.
