Image
US President Donald Trump who has expressed his displeasure at NFL players 'taking the knee' during the national anthem, tried to use Jamaican athlete Usain Bolt to buttress his point about patriotism but it backfired on him. Trump tweeted  this five-year-old video of Usain Bolt cutting a LIVE interview short, when the US National anthem started to play, during the London 2012 Summer Olympics, so that he could stand for the anthem. But this only caused an outrage. See the video and some of the angry tweets below: Even Usain Bolt from Jamaica, one of the greatest runners and athletes of all time, showed RESPECT for our National Anthem! ???? pic.twitter.com/zkenuAP9RS — Donald J.

When it started happening, I'm just happy with how the transition came from how he was against and how he accepted it. She revealed that her parents tried to deliver her and cast out demons when she got back from the competition. "When I went for my homecoming, yes, they still asked me to kneel down and try to deliver me and  cast out demon"

Men no longer play their roles as husband - Nollywood Actress Doris Simeon says...

Image
Nollywood Actress, Doris Simeone has revealed why single motherhood isn’t the fault of women who find themselves in such. She made this known in an interview with ThisDay where she explained why such lifestyle is now fashionable among Nollywood Actresses. Her quote: “Single motherhood is not peculiar to Nollywood. If you go to the banking sector, there are single mothers there; in the military, in law firms and other fields, there are single mothers. . It is not our fault; it’s just that men no longer want to play their role as husbands. I am not a supporter of single parenthood: every man or woman has the right to live their life the way they choose. . It’s just by God’s grace that I am acting and producing. Emotional trauma is not what I will encourage anybody to pass through. God created every woman for a man. So marriage is good.” However, her comment didn’t sit well with some social media fans who took to Instagram to air a different view.
