Diego Maradona Brands Louis Van Gaal A 'Devil'

Maradona, speaking during a press conference in Colombia, said Van Gaal 'is not a nice guy'. Like Franck Ribery who labelled former coach, Louis van Gaal a 'bad man,' football legend, Diego Maradona has branded the Manchester United coach a 'devil.'

Maradona's comments were inspired over his perceived ill treatment of Colombia striker, Radamel Falcao who has not had it easy since arriving England on loan to Man U. Maradona feels his fellow South American hasn't been given the proper treatment as he has been on the bench for the last 5 games and thinks the Dutch coach isn't handling the situation properly.

Speaking at a press conference in Bogota, Colombia, to promote a charity match, the controversial Maradona said: 'Van Gaal is closer to the devil than anything.' Radamel Falcao, who is loan from Monaco to Manchester United since September 2014, has scored only four goals in his time at Old Trafford.

Kanye West Compares His Ego To An Umovable Table In His Home

 

The analogy is funny...and deep! Speaking with New York Times' T magazine, Kanye compared his big ego with a table he hated that was in his home and credits Kim and his daughter for taming his arrogance. He said;

"I feel like now I have an amazing wife, a super-smart child and the opportunity to create in two major fields. Before I had those outlets, my ego was all I had.'

"I have this table in my new house. They put this table in without asking. It was some weird Nouveau riche marble table, and I hated it. But it was literally so heavy that it took a crane to move it. We would try to set up different things around it, but it never really worked. I realized that table was my ego. No matter what you put around it, under it, no matter who photographed it, the douchebaggery would always come through.

Damage Control? Oba Of Lagos Meets With Igbo Leader At His Palace

 

The Ohanaeze Ndigbo Caretaker Committee and other Igbo leaders yesterday met with the Oba of Lagos, Oba Rilwan Akiolu, over the controversial warning to Igbo. Oba Akiolu had threatened Igbo to either vote for the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode or die in the lagoon. According to the Daily Sun,the team was made up of Chief Ralph Obioha, chairman of the Caretaker Committee, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, who was leader of delegation; Chief Onwuka Ukwa (Ebonyi State); Chief Haruna Ajah (Ebonyi State); Chief Ignatius Okamene (Imo State) and Chief Mrs. Pat Udoye (Ebugu State).

Sources revealed that at the meeting, Obioha had asked Oba Akilu if there was any rift between the Igbo and the palace to warrant his comments, to which the monarch said it was only politics, adding that by Saturday, after the governorship election, it would be over. The Lagos monarch told the delegation that people were just making a mountain out of a molehill. Oba Akiolu, however, urged all to respect the fact that Ambode was like his son and he was not hiding his support for him. "They should respect my feelings," he pleaded.

Daily Sun gathered that Oba Akiolu had broken his siesta, for the first time, to receive the Ohanaeze delegation, as a mark of respect for the Igbo. He told the Obioha-led team that he had been associating with Igbo for long, revealing that Igbo traders were using most of his shops in Isale Eko. Oba Akiolu recalled his long friendship with Chief Obioha, right from his police days. Responding, Obioha, on behalf of the delegation, told Oba Akiolu that Igbo would not bear grudge or animosity against him or the people of Lagos. The meeting lasted for 40 minutes and ended amicably.

Oba Of Lagos Not APC's Spokesman Says Tinubu

 

Former Governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, has finally reacted to the anti-Igbo comments made by Oba of Lagos, Rilwan Akiolu. Tinubu said the Oba is not a member of APC and so can't speak on behalf of the party. Speaking to Punch at a rally in Iganmu today, Tinubu said;

"The oba is not a politician. His job is to accommodate all political parties, whether PDP, APC or SDP. So, what did he (Ubah) go and do at the palace? To you Igbos, don't we pay your children's school fees like others? Or is it the palace that pays for it? When we conducted an exam and a spelling competition, an Igbo boy, Ebuka, from Anambra, came first and he became the governor for one day.

"Those that won the competition three times in a row were Igbo. Ebuka was sent to Switzerland computer school and then Obafemi Awolowo University. We did not say he was an Igbo boy and he would not enjoy. He became an executive in Oando and he is now in Canada.

"Another boy, Felix, won and went to Switzerland and OAU. We paid his scholarship; we did not deny him because he is Igbo."
