Stephen Keshi Replaces Samson Siasia As Super Eagles Coach
Nigeria have appointed former captain Stephen Keshi as the coach to revive the fortunes of the Super Eagles. Keshi replaces Samson Siasia, who was sacked last Friday after his 2012 Nations Cup qualifying failure. The 49-year-old, who captained Nigeria at the 1994 World Cup finals, was previously in charge of Mali and Togo at international level. Keshi was also part of the last Nigerian side to win the Africa Cup of Nations - as they did in 1994.
"It was a unanimous decision taken by the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) for the appointment of Stephen Keshi as the new head coach of the national team," said NFF deputy president Mike Umeh. The NFF's Executive Committee met in the Nigerian capital Abuja on Wednesday and deliberated on the recommendations of the body's Technical Committee, who had recommended Keshi.
Having been given a deal that goes until 2014, Keshi has been handed the mandate of taking Nigeria to both the 2013 Nations Cup and the World Cup the following year. His contract includes a stipulation that he must qualify for South Africa 2013 and reach the quarter-finals of the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.
Keshi will be free to choose his assistant. There was no news on whether a Technical Director will be appointed to oversee Keshi's role. The BBC's Aliyu Tanko in Abuja says Keshi's appointment is a popular one in Nigeria. This is mainly because Keshi achieved a major qualifying success when leading unfancied Togo to the 2006 World Cup in Germany.
The NFF's technical committee has also been mandated to meet again next week to recommend people for other positions - of national technical director, head coach of the women's national team as well as the technical crews for the under-17 and under-20 women's teams.

Wizkid Joins Millionaires’ Club At 21
Sources who are privy to the young singer’s revenue told us, this week, that he has now joined the league of music millionaires. With a schedule that keeps him busy all week; and enquiries from all over the globe, Wizkid is currently one of the top 5 most wanted pop stars (others on the list include 2face Idibia, D’banj and Psquare) . And from an engagement fee of N500-700,000, his management has now upped his fee to a minimum of N1.5M. Big budget clients could be asked for up to N2M and N3M in some cases.
‘There are some weekends when he plays up to three shows. The boy is mad busy and his minders are making the best out of the boom‘, a top industry source tells us. Wizkid is putting his money into use too, the 21-year-old recently acquired a VW convertible worth N6M (Six million Naira). He has also embarked on shooting big budget videos; starting with the trado-themed shoot for ‘Pakurumo’ on Tuesday November 1. The video was directed by Clarence Peters.
Monthly earnings, we’re told, now sits in the realm of 20M and upwards. And it can only get better; with a MOBO plaque and Headie in his pouch, and a hit-filled debut album that’s still moving units, the EME act seems poised for a bright future – if he and his minders are smart enough not to let celebrity trouble and scandals ruin it all…

Former Super Eagles Coach Samson Siasia, Sues NFF Over Breach Of Contract
Former Super Eagles coach Samson Siasia has launched a legal action against the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), following his sack last Friday. Siasia is suing the NFF for breach of contract after he was fired for failing to take the country to the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations.
BBC Sport reports that the 44-year-old’s legal team served his former employer with an ‘originating summons’ following his dismissal from the post, but no date has been set for the hearing yet. The NFF announced that Siasia was sacked after he “breached a key clause in the contract” signed with the football authority on 1 December.
But Siasia’s legal team are claiming a breach in contractual agreement signed with the Nigeria football authority upon ‘termination of contract’. According to them, the NFF has violated a formal 30 days’ notice and deprived the former Nigeria international of important working conditions, as agreed.
They claim he was not served a ‘dismissal letter’, provided with a physical trainer whilst he was in charge of the team and nor given accommodation as outlined in his contract. The NFF legal department informed BBC Sport that a statement on this latest saga will be made available to the media at an appropriate time.
Last week, the NFF’s technical committee recommended the dismissal of the former international. He came under huge pressure after the Super Eagles failed to qualify for the continent’s flagship tournament for the first time since the 1986 edition in Egypt. Siasia was a popular choice after he guided Nigeria to the final of the 2005 Fifa Under-20 World Cup in the Netherlands and then the final of the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
However, he fell out of favour after his team could only draw 2-2 with Guinea in Abuja on Saturday, 8 October in a match Nigeria needed to win to stand a chance of qualifying for the Nations Cup in Gabon and Equatorial Guinea.

Kim Kardashian Divorce: She Likes Attention Way Too Much To Settle Down
I personally brought you the news about Kim Kardashian’s wedding to basketball fiancĂ© Kris Humphries.
But in less than 3 months, the marriage is said to have packed up. Just yesterday Kim was on an Australian morning news show “Sunrise” when the host asked how hard she worked to save the 72 day union. Kim said she was just following her heart … and “there’s no right or wrong,” (whatever that means.)
People can’t stop wondering what must have happened in Kim’s life to make her such a shameless attention seeker, but it must have been pretty serious. It’s almost as if Kim thinks she would cease from existing if she wasn’t in the public spotlight for every minute of every day.
Have you seen her Twitter account? She literally tweets every couple hours and no less than eight or 10 times per day. That is serious dedication to the public. This kind of sick desperation just doesn’t jive with marriage and (theoretically) kids.
It’s not like a woman has to disappear from public life after she’s married, but spending a night home with the hubby on occasion is probably expected.
Perhaps sex without a video camera for future Internet dissemination would be nice. But that’s just not who Kim is. Kim is a woman who needs an entire camera crew involved every time she goes to the bathroom or buys groceries.

Court Ordered NDLEA To Release Baba Suwe By Friday
The latest news about Yoruba Actor Babatunde Omidina aka Baba Suwe is that an Ikeja high court has ordered NDLEA to release him by Friday if he doesn’t excrete the suspected hard drug. While giving her ruling, Justice Yetunde Idowu of Ikeja High Court said:
“The only thing hindering me from releasing the applicant today is because of the Federal High Court order of 20 October. I don’t want to meddle with that order.

D’Banj To Be Honoured At Channel O Music Video Awards 2011
African pop star Dapo Oyebanjo better known as D’banj is to be honoured at the forthcoming 2011 Channel O Music Video Awards, organizers have announced. The Entertainer will be given a Special Recognition award come Friday, November 11, 2011 when the awards will hold. With the recent news, D’banj follows in the footsteps of past winners K’Naan, Brenda Fassie and George Lee in 2010, 2009 and 2008 respectively.
D’banj who has once co-hosted the awards show alongside DJ Sbu back in 2007 has shown impressive qualities as an African artiste in his six-year musical journey. He has released three solo albums ‘No long thing’ (2005), ‘Rundown Funk U Up’ (2006), ‘The Entertainer’ (2008) and the anticipation for a fourth – ‘Mr Endowed’ increases by the day.
His hard work led to the recent international record deal signing with US rapper Kanye West’s G.O.O.D Music earlier this year.
It’s really an honour for us to be celebrating an artist such as D’Banj for this year’s Special Recognition Award. Besides the obvious success that D’Banj has had, one of the stand-out factors is that his career, his success and his path run parallel with the growth that we have seen in the African music industry since the inception of the Channel O Music Video Awards. To us he represents a breed of African urban artists who are the African dream’, says Leslie ‘Lee’ Kasumba, Channel O Africa Manager.

Toni Payne Speaks About 9ice, Confused On Who To Marry Next
For some time now, Toni Payne has been busy with doing the job she knows how to do best, which is artiste management, and she has perfectly excelled in that profession as one would have expected. Just few years ago, this ex heartthrob of Alapomeji Records head, Abolore Adigun Akande, who is well known as 9ice, got married to 9ice, who was then under her management.

But in all the controversies that have surrounded the whole brouhaha, Toni has made her heart known that she still has some feelings and love for the father of her reportedly only son, Zion.
She made this known when she said, “My interest in music management was inspired by the artiste, 9ice.”
Though the Gongo Aso crooner may not be thinking in her direction for now, as he is presently concentrating on releasing his long awaited album that should have been released over a year ago, but Toni may be becoming weary of her continuous stay as a single mother without a man to body-touch when needed.
According to this artiste manager of repute, “A lot of men claim they truly love me, but only God knows who truly loves me. I am not perfect, neither am I holy, but I do my best to do what is right in God’s eyes.” Though not in a rush to jump into another union, but Toni made her mind known on the qualities she expects from a man. She listed being intelligent, God fearing, selfless, compassionate, caring, and patient, accommodating, reliable and dependable as the key qualities of a good man…….

Rick Ross Blames Seizures On Sleep Deprivation, Reveals Collaboration With Jay-Z
The MMG chief says he wasn't getting enough rest on account of his hectic schedule.
Rick Ross shook the Hip Hop community when he suffered two seizures in the same day earlier this month, but he assures fans that he’s on the road to recovery. During an appearance on “106 & Park,” Ricky Rozay appeared in good spirits, explaining that his medical emergency stemmed from sleep deprivation and that he has a clean bill of health.
“What it was was I was going about my business as every day. I boarded a flight, and on the flight, I had a seizure and when I snapped out of it, they told me what had happened. I was like, you buggin', call a jet, we finna keep it moving. Because I understand me growing up and hearing about seizures, they can be violent, you bust vessels and bite your tongue up and this and that and in my case, it wasn’t none of that. I felt a little worn out, but I felt I could keep going and that’s what it was.”
He recalled getting on a second plane and having another seizure. When he awoke, he realized the source of his problems. “I boarded a jet and I had another seizure, and when I snapped out of that one, I woke up in front of a doctor and he asked me basically, ‘When was the last time you slept eight hours?’ and I said ‘It had to at least been five years.’ Being the fastest growing label in the game, it comes with a lot of sacrifices. And in my case, it was sleep. I would get two hours of sleep and keep moving, me being a hustler. And that has to stop.
“I came back totally healthy,” he added. “It was a case of me not getting enough rest, not getting enough sleep.” He also mentioned that while he was supposed to be on bed rest, he instead netted "the biggest collaboration that we've done for my album" with Jay-Z.
