Wait, Does EbonyLife Films Think That We Are A Joke To Them Or What Because I don't know how to explain how Below par that movie was. Non of the storyline from the first Installment of the Franchise were followed. Every Scene felt like another movie on its own and if this is what we are going to be as an industry on Netflix, Then we Nigerians are in for a treat on that app.

.

Positives :

1.) Dammy Baggio And Adaora (Daughter Of The Maid) Finally Get Married even if it was the worst engagement I have ever watched in my entire life.

2.) Femi (Big Money Famzy) Finally made a good song.

3.) The Comedic relief Of both Chigurl And Nedu Wazobia was really refreshing to watch.

.

Negatives (It's Plenty) :

1.) The Storyline On The sharing Of the will wasn't duly followed up on. In the first Installment, we were told that the funds that was attached with the will will be used to pay off some debts owed by the company to the bank and then will be duly reimbursed by the company.

2.) Who is Leila? : We the viewers only know Leila as the woman who showed up at the Beecroft Family house at the ending of the First Movie. We entered into the second movie hearing that Leila is also their sister and MD/CEO of Beecroft Enterprises which we weren't told about in the first Installment of the Franchise. 

3.) How did Dammy Baggio Hamstring injury that was meant to keep him out for a whole year suddenly heal in one week. According to his Medical Team, The Footballer was told that his Hamstring issue will keep him out of action for at least 12 months but he was able to use the legs (without crutches) to travel to Dubai to see Famzy and Sisi Ice-cream.

4.) How Fast did they want to the movie to end that there wasn't any battle or fight or even a huge scenario for all of them to reconcile their differences. They all just attended Dammy and Adaora's Wedding and before the blink of an eye, The family suddenly settled their differences. HOW NA?

5.) The Storyline Involving Uzor Arukwe, Kate Henshaw And Funke Akindele-Bello is the most crazy Storyline I have ever seen. How can you go from hating your sister because of a man then both of you end up getting engaged to the same man with two different Engagements. DO THEY THINK WE ARE FOOLS OR WHAT?

.

6.) Last but certainly not the Least, The Movie Was Really Below Par. The Movie was a Clear Scenario of having plenty A-List actors but average movie quality and average storytelling. Not a good way to start 2022 as an Industry. It wasn't worth the Hype.

RATING : 5%


Finally, End Of Tough Times As Ole Gunnar Sacked By Man United And Zidane Expected To Replace Him

Tough moments for Manchester United supporters are now over since the board has concluded to fire Ole Gunnar Solsjkaer. Despite the club having one of their strongest team of all time, they have been struggling in a great way under Ole. After losing at home in the Manchester Derby, disappointment have continued with a 4-1 defeat against Watford.


They were also beaten 4 by Leicester, 5 by Liverpool, 1 by Aston Villa and a draw with Southampton and Everton. They have conceded a total of 29 goals and only Norwich has allowed more than them. This means that they have one of the poorest defence. They have kept only two clean sheet in the 12 matches played so far. 

As reported by Fabrizio, Man United board have decided to fire him after five hours internal talk. It is now confirmed that mutual agreement to part ways will be considered and discussed. They are now working on compensation and written agreement with the Norwegian. It is now over and official statement is expected in the next hours once paper work is completed.


His coaching assistants Kieran McKenna and Mike Phelan will also be relieved with him to bring in fresh staffs. Joel Glazer has further directed the scouting management to complete the talks with Zinedine Zidane as he is the one expected to replace Ole.

Manchester United will be hosting Chelsea at Old Trafford next weekend. The Blues lead the table with 29 points which 12 ahead of the Red Devils who dropped to 7 with 17 points. It is therefore crucial to sack Ole to bring in a person who can stop Chelsea and reduce the points to 9. If Tuchel win, based on their top form, the league will be long time gone.

As the nation marks one year of EndSARS today, Information Minister, Lai Mohammed, has insisted that the claimed massacre of Nigerians during the nationwide mass protests against police brutality, was phantom.


Speaking during a news conference in Abuja, Mr Lai said that most of the claims of killings were false and misleading as most of those who made the claims of losing people were yet to show up and give evidence a year after such allegations.



His statement reads in part:

“The military did not shoot at protesters at the Lekki Toll Gate on Oct. 20th 2020, and there was no massacre at the toll gate. The only ‘massacre’ recorded was in the social media, hence there were neither bodies nor blood.

ii) Amnesty International, CNN, a runaway DJ and others like them should apologize for misleading the world that there was a massacre at the Lekki Toll Gate and for portraying the Nigerian military, police and other security agencies in bad light.”

After Three Years Of Marriage See What Husband Found On His Wife's Phone -

Couples are urged not to marry only on the basis of their money, appearance, or financial possessions because this is one of the few things that will bond them together for the rest of their life. Otherwise, you could end yourself marrying the wrong person. In the event that you choose the incorrect person to marry, you may find yourself in an unstable marriage, and you may even find yourself cheating on your partner.
Unrest and indignation have erupted following the appearance of an image on social media depicting a discussion between an unmarried woman and another man. As reported in the news, despite the fact that the lady does not normally stay at home because her husband is a busy guy, he makes certain that his wife has the basic needs she demands. It had been a little more than three years since they had first started dating.

A few days before, the guy had taken his wife's phone and had continued to go through her texts even after she had handed it back over. He was disappointed when he came upon a conversation with a man named Mike, which he thought to be unsatisfactory. According to the husband, who reads the texts all the way through to the end, his wife was having a sexual relationship with another man while he was gone trying to put food on the table for the family.

The husband, who was clearly in anguish, taped the conversations and put them on social media, pleading for advice on how to deal with his current circumstances.
