Bro really quit his job with pennies to become famous, and it actually worked. Charles Born hit his one-year mark in Nollywood with over forty movies already done. This guy posted on Instagram about ditching his radio gig to chase acting full-time despite having almost zero savings.
The actor admitted he failed miserably at first while trying to juggle both careers. Directors ignored his messages and audition tapes for a long duration. He eventually resigned completely from broadcasting, with only thirteen thousand naira sitting in his bank account.
His manager, Celestine Queen, apparently could not believe he had been acting for such a short period. Born credits the industry support system for his rapid rise. He feels grateful even...
Tacha thinks screaming at teammates is totally fine if you play like Ronaldo. That media personality jumped online to defend Victor Osimhen after he yelled at Ademola Lookman during the Nigeria game against Mozambique. She claims critics only target the striker due to disrespect while ignoring his drive.
Video clips captured Osimhen charging toward Lookman despite receiving an assist from that winger earlier. The Atalanta player stayed chill while his partner raged. Tacha insists people would never judge Cristiano Ronaldo for showing similar aggression on the field.
She challenged the coach to bench Osimhen just to prove the squad needs him. That influencer argued the Napoli star wanted a hat-trick, and his outburst merely proves his...

One more bench warmer looks ready to escape Greece for the Turkish league. Trabzonspor supposedly wants Bruno Onyemaechi on their roster soon. That club plans on chatting with Olympiacos regarding the Nigerian defender. Talks will likely start heating up once the Africa Cup of Nations finishes in Morocco.
This dude barely gets playing time while stuck at Olympiacos. He arrived from Boavista carrying a heavy price tag, but he just sits inactive. A fresh move toward Trabzonspor could finally let him see the field again rather than rotting away on the sideline.
Paul Onuachu already scores frequently for that specific Turkish team. Victor Osimhen dominates for Galatasaray in the same country. That region seemingly loves collecting Super...
Salah bailed out Egypt again because, of course, he did. That Liverpool winger finally clinched a win for the Pharaohs over Benin at the Africa Cup of Nations held in Agadir. This dude smashed a shot past Marcel Dandjinou deep inside extra periods to secure a rough victory.
Marwan Attia actually opened scoring initially, but Jodel Dossou leveled things up for the Cheetahs. Things stayed tied until Yasser Ibrahim headed Egypt back ahead. Salah then ended hopes for the minnows with his tenth career competition goal.
Benin played minus captain Steve Mounie due to sickness. Omar Marmoush almost scored early but failed. The Manchester City attacker got blocked repeatedly, while Yohan Roche cleared lines. Egypt rotated almost everyone...
A boxing official is accusing an amateur federation VP of a power grab. Nigeria Boxing Board of Control secretary Oluremi Aboderin made the claim.

Aboderin stated that an amateur boxer must come to them to turn professional. The NBF regulates amateur boxing under the sports ministry.
Aboderin argued the amateur federation has no legal...

The badminton federation wants to build on a decent last year. President Francis Orbih said the season was fairly positive overall. He noted progress in corporate sponsorship and technical development. A historic four-year deal for para star Eniola Bolaji was a major breakthrough. GIG Logistics provided the first corporate player sponsorship in Nigerian history.
Orbih hopes this attracts more private sector investment. The federation did not hold a national championship last season. A busy international calendar kept players engaged instead. Events included the National Sports Festival and Lagos International. The Abia Para Badminton International and African Championship also occurred.
Plans exist for at least four national...
