August 11, 2023 N120m Grand Prize Not Enough For My Upkeep – Kiddwaya Brags

N120m Grand Prize Not Enough For My Upkeep – Kiddwaya Brags

Kiddwaya, a prominent figure from previous seasons of Big Brother Naija, casually mentioned that the N120 million grand prize of the reality show wouldn't sufficiently cover his expenses.

In a conversation with fellow housemate Cross on Friday morning, Kiddwaya, who hails from a wealthy family, acknowledged that he's primarily participating in the show for the fame it brings.

During their exchange, Kiddwaya remarked, "The money [N120 million grand prize] is not even enough to sustain me. I'm here to build my profile."

Cross responded humorously, "For me, it's all about the money. That's why I'm here. I have clear plans for it. It's a real necessity for me. If anyone wants to question my motives, I'll be quick to respond in kind."

August 11, 2023 Prostate Cancer Epidemic Among Nigerian Men Over 60, Warns Utomi

Prostate Cancer Epidemic Among Nigerian Men Over 60, Warns Utomi

Patrick Utomi, a prominent political economist and founder of the Centre for Values and Leadership, revealed on Friday that he was diagnosed with cancer in 2022.

He highlighted that many in his age group are grappling with similar health challenges.

Utomi took to Twitter to share that he tested positive for cancer after a biopsy. He began treatment at a cancer center in Ikeja and Victoria Island, Lagos State, during the 2023 election campaigns.

In his tweet, Utomi expressed the urgency to address a hidden epidemic that's affecting men detrimentally. He stressed that prostate cancer is causing suffering and fatalities among many men. He underscored the importance of awareness and early intervention, drawing a parallel with the awareness surrounding breast cancer among women.

“I agreed with the Gambian Real Estate Entrepreneur Taf Njie while I battled the disease that we should do more to create awareness. Nearly 30 years ago, I went to Ibadan to speak and lend a hand to present Ondo State First Lady Betty Akeredolu as she raised the breast cancer banner.

“When a biopsy showed I was positive last year, I began treatment with a cancer Centre with a branch in Ikeja and VI. I sometimes came from election campaigns to the Ikeja Centre near the Airport. The doctors would try to smuggle me out from the back. The well-known shielded?”

“Once elections were over, my young nephews and cousins, doctors in Europe and the US, joined forces with the Lakeshore people and decided they wanted me in their direct care. That’s how come it seemed I went quiet cause they controlled my phones to reduce stress.

“Did not see why it was taboo to say you were in a battle with Cancer. The more I talked about it, the more I found many of my age in similar circumstances. It almost seems like an epidemic for Nigerian men over 60. Not talking makes them lose the benefit of early detection,” he tweeted.

 
August 11, 2023 Tottenham’s Kane Set For Bayern Munich Medical

Tottenham’s Kane Set For Bayern Munich Medical

Tottenham's star player, Harry Kane, is on the verge of a medical evaluation at Bayern Munich.

Following an agreement between Bayern and Spurs valued at over 100 million euros,  the 30-year-old striker's future shift hinges on his decision.

With an impressive record of 280 goals in 435 appearances, Kane is Tottenham's all-time leading scorer. Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou confirmed the deal's impending nature on Friday.

Kane, whose contract was set to expire within a year, was increasingly unlikely to continue with Tottenham. As long as unforeseen hurdles don't arise, his transition to Bayern should be completed in time for the start of the Bundesliga season next week.

Amidst the summer's negotiations, Kane's preference for a future resolution before the season's commencement became evident. It has taken Bayern most of the summer to reach a point where Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy was willing to proceed with the deal.

Though initially linked with a move to Manchester United this summer, uncertainties remained regarding Levy's stance on selling him to another Premier League club. Kane could have opted to run down his contract's final year and depart on a free transfer in 2024.

Kane's journey through negotiations with Bayern was marked by his participation in Tottenham's recent pre-season tour of Australia and Southeast Asia. He was last seen on Sunday against Shakhtar Donetsk.

As the impending transfer looms, Tottenham is gearing up to face Brentford in their season opener, while Bayern is set to commence their campaign against RB Leipzig in the German Super Cup.

Kane's accomplishments, including three Premier League Golden Boot wins and a tally of 213 goals from 320 games, hint at his potential to break Alan Shearer's Premier League scoring record. However, his move to Germany may reshape this prospect.

Reacting to the news, Shearer playfully suggested on social media that it's time for Kane to bid farewell to the Premier League. As Kane's anticipated departure approaches, Shearer's record of 260 top-flight goals remains intact – at least for now.

August 11, 2023 Liverpool and Brighton Reach £111m Deal for Moises Caicedo in Record Transfer Fee

Liverpool and Brighton Reach £111m Deal for Moises Caicedo in Record Transfer Fee

Liverpool Football Club has officially reached an agreement with Brighton & Hove Albion for the transfer of midfielder Moises Caicedo, marking a British record-breaking fee of £111 million.

Nevertheless, Chelsea has emerged as a contender in this transfer race, attempting to secure a deal for the Ecuadorian international. This development comes despite Brighton rejecting several bids from Chelsea earlier in the summer transfer window.

While the future destination of the 21-year-old remains uncertain, sources suggest that Caicedo's preference leans towards a move to Stamford Bridge, home of Chelsea Football Club.

The intrigue deepens as fans and analysts alike await Chelsea's response to Liverpool's substantial bid. Brighton, which had initially set a fee exceeding £100 million for the midfielder, seemed confident that their valuation would deter potential buyers. Chelsea had previously submitted a bid of £80 million in their pursuit of Caicedo.

Addressing the ongoing transfer saga, Brighton's manager Roberto de Zerbi shared his perspective ahead of their Premier League opener against Luton Town on Saturday at 15:00 BST. De Zerbi conveyed, "I have already forgotten about Moises... I'm truly proud of the players we have within our squad."

He continued, "Our focus remains on continuous improvement. Credit goes to the club, and while larger clubs may acquire our players, they cannot acquire our soul or spirit."

With conviction, de Zerbi reinforced Brighton's identity, saying, "We are Brighton, and we achieved a significant milestone last year – comparable to Liverpool and surpassing Chelsea. I desire players who take pride in representing Brighton."

As the transfer dynamics continue to shift, football enthusiasts eagerly anticipate the next chapter in this high-stakes player acquisition saga.
