Floyd Mayweather has a single bank account with $123 million in it

Champion boxer Floyd Mayweather has everything money can buy. Too bad his money can’t buy him common sense or self-esteem, because then he would truly be prosperous.


Mayweather’s millions keeps him relatively comfortable — and he makes sure to always have at least a million in cold cash on hand. As for the rest of his money, according to ESPN The Magazine, the narcissistic pugilist keeps $123 million in a single bank account.

By the way, the FDIC covers bank deposits up to $250,000. So if Floyd’s bank ever goes under, the majority of his cash will go down with it.A fool and his money are soon parted.

Eagles go for FIFA ranking points against Etalons

Crucial FIFA ranking points will be at stake when the Super Eagles host Burkina Faso in a friendly today in Kaduna.
The draw for the final round of the 2014 World Cup qualifiers for Africa will be held on Monday, September 16, the seeding will be based on FIFA September rankings, which will be released on Thursday.
Nigeria are within the top five in Africa and they maintain their ranking after Tuesday’s match, they will be one of five teams to be seeded at Monday’s draw in Cairo, Egypt.
This means they will avoid the likes of Cote d’Ivoire, Algeria and Ghana. Burkina Faso, on the other hand, need to score more points for them to make it into the top five and so be seeded.
Academica de Coimbra of Portugal forward John Ogu saidthat the Eagles know the importance of the game.
”Of course, every game is important to us, so we want to win. We are aware this month’s FIFA ranking will influence the seeding for the draws, even without that it is a serious game to us,” Ogu said
“I am always ready to play for Nigeria any day anytime, I am looking forward to the game.”
Nigeria have never lost to the Stallions of Burkina Faso, having won six out of eight meeting, with just two draws.
At the 2013 AFCON, the two West Africans drew 1-1 in a group game in Nelspruit, South Africa, before they clashed again in the final, where the Eagles won 1-0 to win their third Nations Cup diadem.
The Eagles are equally aware of the physicality of the Stallions.
The players joked during Monday morning training about the strength of their top marksman, Jonathan Petroipa.
“Azubuike, Petroipa will show you pepper and I know you have been thinking of him,”Ogenyi Onazi poked a joke at the Eagles tallest defender Azubuike Egwuekwe.
The defender kept mute and just shook his head, but Emmanuel Emenike, who incidentally did not play the final due to a knock rose to his defence.
“Petroipa was there at the Nations Cup and we know the result. Na for this field we go see who be oga for African football,”said the Fenerbache striker

EXCLUSIVE NEWS| How My Mother Sold My Baby – 17-Year-Old Girl Speaks

Seventeen-year-old Blessing Godspower,  on Wednesday narrated how her mother sold her (Godspower) eight-month-old baby.

The mother, Onyinyechi Nwabueze, 38, was paraded by the police at the  ‘A’ Division of the Plateau State Police Command.

Policemen from the division, led by the Divisional Police Officer, Mr. Victor Dimkpa, a Chief Superintendent of Police, had rescued the baby, Chiamaka, in Awka, the Anambra State capital.

Blessing, who was staying with her mother at Rukuba Road area of Jos North, was allegedly put in the family way by her boyfriend.


After Chiamaka was delivered, Godspower’s mother, who was not comfortable with the development, allegedly decided to get rid of the baby.

According to Blessing, on July 19, her mother sent her on a phony errand in order to effect the “diabolical” act.

She said, “My mother sent me on an errand, but when I came back I asked for my baby and my mother asked, ‘which baby?’ She feigned ignorance and at that point I started crying and reported the incident to the Police.”

Police Commissioner, Mr. Chris Olakpe said, “After the mother sent her daughter away, she (Nwabueze) stopped a tricycle and took the baby to the first receiver, one Eucharia Anyaegbu. Anyaegbu transferred the baby to the second receiver, Rita Maduako, who finally sold the baby to 53-year-old unmarried woman, Grace Nnadozie.”

Nnadozie, however, told our correspondent that after she applied to an orphanage home for a child without any result for the past two years, she sought Anyaegbu’s help.

She said  she gave N500,000 to Anyaegbu for the baby. Anyaegbu gave N350, 000 to Maduako.  Maduako was to give N200,000 to the baby’s grandmother.

But Nwabueze denied that she sold the baby.  She said her daughter was very wayward, so she decided to give the baby out to somebody else who would take proper care of her.

She said, “How can I sell my granddaughter. My daughter is not capable of taking care of the baby and I decided to give her to somebody who will take proper care of her.”

Nwabueze explained that she lost her husband in 2007 and since then, she and the six children she had with him, had been finding things difficult.

Davido In Fresh Sex Scandal With Kenyan Socialite, Pendo During His Last Show In Kenya

A Kenyan socialite, Staciey Brianar aka Pendo has been bragging online, in interviews that she and Davido had a romp when the superstar was in Kenya last week

Though a report from a Kenyan website says Davido had denied knowing who Pendo was in a press briefing while in Kenya, in a telephone chat with another Kenyan website Ghafla.co.ke, Pendo says her story is so true. And that she has proof!

Excerpts from the interview below:

Nali: So what is all this wahala about Davido blocking you off of his Facebook? 

Pendo : If people had done even a little research, they would Davido does not even have a Facebook account. I NEVER said I was in touch with him through Facebook. I got in touch with him through a good friend of his *redacted*  and that’s where everything started. He did the intro.

Nali: So, seriously, did you f**k Davido?

Pendo: Errrrrrrrrrrm (laughs cheekily) (There is IRREFUTABLE proof that Pendo did spend the night with Nigerian superstar, if you want to see it plead with her on twitter @LoveStaicey to release it.) In the meantime, have this picture of Davido, topless, in his hotel room from his personal instagram. Maybe Pendo took it #troll

Nali: So why did you do this? Do you do this for money?

Pendo: (Laughs) No, I didn’t get money from him. I didn’t WANT money from him. I did it simply cuz I find him hot and he is pretty legit in the music industry in Africa. Yeah, I am attracted by his talent, his fame, his power, but honestly, who isn’t?

And people are talking so much because a lot of women wanted to be in my shoes, but were not. I’m not afraid to go after what I want. That’s just me. And I am unapologetic for it. I am content that I got what I wanted -which was to know him- and I guess it just naturally progressed from there…

Nali: So was this a one time thing then?

Pendo: No, I would do it again. Gladly. I don’t regret it at all.

Nali: Of course you know now I am gonna ask about the “D”. Free reign, choose your own words to describe it.

Pendo: He was perfect.

Nali: Nooooooooo, more than that. DESCRIPTION.

Pendo: (Laughing) Ok, ok. Errrrrrrrrrrm, he is much better than your “average Kenyan”. He is big. Both length and width. (Giggles) And best part is he REALLY knows what he is working with.

Nali: Haha, so you loved ALL OF HIM. (SN: Hehe, see what I did there?)

Pendo: (Giggles) Ha, you won’t let this go will you. Haha, no seriously though, he has CRAZY moves, he kept it fresh for a couple hours. I am impressed. Definitely the best…(hesitates) Ok maybe not the best I ever had, but he is up there.

Nali: So was this a one night stand or will you be seeing him again?

Pendo: Davido is not only a good lover but a gentleman. Not only did he not publicise the affair, but he left me with some personal mementos to remember him. I don’t think a one night stand does that. Plus there is still communication going on. I’m not saying we are dating, but we are definitely still talking. He did not “hit it and quit it”.

........................................................................

Pendo further bragged to another website:

”First of all, David doesn’t know Pendo, Pendo is for kenyans…lol!!

He knows Staicey so maybe if Pulse did their interview right, thy would have got the right info…

Anyway, he doesn’t have a Facebook account, so there is no way he would hav “blockd” me!!

I blocked the wannabe after I talked to HIM and he said “I use twitter n Insta” not even BBM coz he uses an i-phone!!

I may have been at the press conference, but as people say u gata work to achieve. So I made my way there, got to at long last meet Deekay, my long time pal from HKN n through him, I made my way to Skyluxx for the play house party where all of us stuck up in the VIP area!!

I knew I had won my jackpot so there was nothing to worry about..as a matter of fact, he had spotted me too.

We talked in a way only the two of us could understand!

I had my fun n made my way home ready for the big day…

As I said I was not worried, so there’s was no time in me hustlin to go to the backstage as other girls did…nooo!!

I had my food ready to eat. After the event, my friend Deekay (hkn) buzzed me and asked me to turn up that he was asking for me..

I made my way to Galileo with my girlfriends. I minded my own business until he spotted me and asked his deejay to come get me.

I still had no rush to be seen hanging out wth him or anything, so I sat down n had my drink that he offered…when it was time to leave he held my hand and we left.

On reaching the car, the organiser said it wouldn’t be safe coz of the media so David paid for my cab that followed them directly to the hotel located in Hurlingham.

When I got there, he sent his deejay (Olu) to give me his key card to his room as he talked to someone…he escorted me to the room and the rest is self explanatory!!

I’m not like those girls who take pix in bed and all…but I got proof, as he left me some wen he left for his flight early morning.
