World tennis star, Roger Federer was joined on court by multi-billionaire, Bill Gates and two others in a charity tennis match in Seattle, U.S. that raised funds for Africa. Federer and Gates were joined by American tennis player, John Isner and guitarist Mike McCready from Pearl Jam.
Playing to raise money for the Swiss’ very own Roger Federer Foundation, at the end of the event it was announced that around $2 million had been raised for the charity and its efforts in Africa.
The crowd, 16,000 strong, were treated to an unconventional doubles match that paired Federer and Gates up against Isner and McCready.
The main showdown was between Federer and Isner. Their head-to-head record in competitions put the Swiss ahead by 5-2. The game was closely fought but in the end, 35-year-old Federer prevailed.
Federer’s Foundation is focused mainly on improving education on the African continent. It is currently operational in six Southern African countries covering 277,000 children so far.
All activities of the foundation are realised and implemented by local non-governmental authorities in close collaboration with the local communities. Federer has made several trips to the continent as part of the operations of his foundation.
The countries it operates in and the respective number of beneficiaries are as follows:
South Africa – 75,000
Malawi – 62,000
Zambia – 53,000
Zimbabwe – 78,000
Namibia – 4,600
Botswana – 4,500
In his welcome message on the foundation’s website, Federer wrote: “I believe in the power of people. They might only need some initial empowerment.
“We know that a good education empowers children by allowing them to take their future into their own hands and play an active part in shaping it. And we trust in the best will of parents that they want to ensure the best possible opportunities for their children.
“For more than 12 years my Foundation has therefore been committed to enable parents and local communities in providing these children with the opportunity for a good education. We aim to reach a million children by 2018.”
The event itself was considered a success and will hopefully ignite the desire for other celebrities to find creative ways to raise money for those in need.
A renowned spiritual leader, His Holiness Olumba Olumba Obu of the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, said yesterday that President Muhammadu Buhari will not die in office as predicted by some people. Speaking in Calabar, Olumba cautioned those praying and wishing Buhari dead to desist, saying God purposely chose him as president of Nigeria to wage war against corruption.
He said so far, Buhari’s government has succeeded in the battle to retrieve Nigeria’s stolen money; but that he must work towards peace and unity of the country.
Olumba advised that Buhari’s government should seek God’s direction and judiciously apply the recovered funds, declaring that many more funds would be recovered from looters.
“When we said at the onset of the administration that those who stole Nigeria’s money will return all, many did not believe us,” he said.
“But the president must pray for God to lead him to apply the recovered loot to the benefit of all Nigerians. Let me repeat that Nigeria is a very well blessed country; to those wishing the president dead, he will not die,” he said.
The spiritual leader reiterated that Nigeria was well blessed by God, and that the citizens and investors should have faith in the country.
The first photos have emerged of a young Australian woman who claims she was tricked into smuggling millions of dollars worth of drugs out of Colombia. Handcuffed and standing behind 5.8 kilograms of cocaine wrapped in black plastic, Cassandra Sainsbury could face 25 years in a South American jail if found guilty.
The 22-year-old told her family she thought the packages were 15 headphones a local man posing as a translator had arranged to buy for her at a discount.
But she was arrested at El Dorado International Airport in Bogotá on April 11 on her way back to Australia after an X-ray search allegedly revealed something suspicious in her luggage.
Lt Colonel Jorge Triana, head of anti-narcotics police at the airport, told Daily Mail Australia he didn't believe Cassandra's headphone story.
Lt Colonel Triana said drug mules often feigned ignorance when they were caught. Lt Colonel Triana said even if Cassandra didn't know about the drugs she likely faced jail time either way.
Cassandra's family insisted she was an innocent victim being 'set up' by a man she had just met.
A man who claimed to be 146 years old and outlived all four of his wives has died in Indonesia. Saparman Sodimejo, also known as Mbah Ghoto, had an Indonesian ID card that claimed his date of birth was December 31, 1870.
A heavy smoker, when asked last year about the key to his longevity, he said that patience was key and that he had enjoyed a long life because he had people who loved him that looked after him.
If his birth date is correct, it would mean that he was born in the same year as the Bolshevik leader Vladimir Lenin and a year after the Suez Canal opened.
He will have lived through two world wars, resulting in the Japanese invasion of the Dutch East Indies, with seven British monarchs reigning in his lifetime. His remarkable life experiences made him a great story-teller in the village, with wars against Japan and Dutch colonisers making him a hero in his village.
He passed away in his village in the Seragaen district of Central Java, Indonesia and a funeral took place today.

Someone comes there and keeps hand on her shoulder. Pragya says I can’t share my pain with anyone, and want to tell the truth to him. She says I am doing this on your sayings. Even If I fulfill my motive then don’t know if I will be able to find him. She asks her to take out from this mess. The person supporting her is revealed and she is none other than Dadi. Dadi hugs her and asks her to stop crying. She says I am with you. Pragya says why did you saved me on that day. Dadi says if you had gone from this world, then what would have happen to me and Abhi. She says three lives was saved that day.

I thought I have done right by getting you married to Abhi, but it turn out to be my foolishness. She says I need a bahu who will be with Abhi, as a protective shield, and you are running away from him being weak. You can’t support your husband. Why did you take the wedding vows and wear kumkum and mangalsutra. She says when Abhi needs you, then you are leaving him. Why I would have got you married to you, as you has good values and clean heart. She says you left Abhi on the way, you have betrayed me and not Aaliya and Tanu. Pragya asks why you are saying this? I want to take him out of Aaliya and Tanu’s clutches. I left home, and I can’t return. I want to save him, but can’t do anything alone.
Dadi reminds her about Savitri saving her husband from Yamraj and tells she has strength of trust, love, mangalsutra, sindoor which Yamraj couldn’t break.

You have to take everything in your hands, and become new owner of the house. Pragya is shocked and says everything will think she is greedy after money. Dadi says they will be in shock and will do some mistake, giving them chance to expose them. Pragya says we will tell the truth to Abhi.

The Speaker, House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara, on Sunday said that increasing workers’ salary had become necessary in view of the rising cost of living in the country.
In a statement by his Special Adviser, Media and Public Affairs, Mr Turaki Hassan, to mark the 2017 Workers’ Day, Dogara said that the House was committed to passing a new minimum wage bill.
The speaker reiterated the resolve of the parliament to enact a new wage bill for Nigerian workers. “I wish to congratulate the entire Nigerian workers as they join their counterparts the world over in commemorating the International Workers’ Day. “While commending you for your commitment to the service and building of the nation, I wish to assure you that the National Assembly remains committed to the passage of the National Minimum Wage Bill when presented by the executive,” Dogara said.
The speaker further stressed that the eight House of Representatives in particular, was committed to initiating other laws and legislative interventions that would promote the welfare and well being of Nigerian workers.
Dogara, however, enjoined workers, especially civil servants to rededicate themselves to duty and support government’s laudable policies and programmes. “As you mark this historic day, I wish to remind Nigerians of the sacrifices made by the working class in nation building. “I urge you to commit yourselves to doing even more in supporting government’s activities that will better the lots of our citizens,” Dogara said.
Former Miss Charismatic Nigeria 2013 and top model, Mololuwa Yewande Baruwa, has been reported dead.
The 23 year old Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU) final year Public Administration student died in the late hours of Friday April 29th after suffering a brief illness. May her soul rest in peace.
A 49-year-old judiciary staff in Delta State, Mr. Narebor Stephen Donbrapade, has been sentenced to death by hanging for stabbing his flatmate’s wife to death by a Delta State high court sitting in Ughelli.
The accused, who hails from Esama town in Bomadi Local Government Area, had on or about January 31, 2013, murdered one Stella Avwenayerhe by stabbing her on the chest at Otobo Street, Ughelli.
Donbrapade, who shared a three bedroom flat with the deceased’s husband, was said to have had a minor altercation with the victim after he walked on the rug in the sitting room without removing his shoes.
Annoyed that he was reprimanded by the deceased, the accused was said to have dashed into his room only to appear with a knife with which he stabbed Stella Avwenayerhe on the chest. She was confirmed dead by doctors at the Ughelli Central hospital, where she was rushed to by neighbours.
The accused, in his defense, pleaded not guilty to the one-count charge of murder, alleging that the victim was stabbed to death by some unidentified hoodlums in the area.
Delivering his judgment, Justice F. O. Ohwo found the accused guilty on the one-count charge preferred against him by the State Attorney-General through the Director of Public Prosecutions.
He held that the evidences of the four prosecution witnesses called by an Assistant Director in the Ministry of Justice, including the husband of the deceased, proved beyond all reasonable doubt the essential ingredients of the offence of murder against the accused.
