Ronaldo shows off £1.85 million diamond watch before Man Utd clash

Cristiano Ronaldo sported a customised watch at his press conference on Monday night that appeared to be modelled on the Jacob&Co Caviar Tourbillon range. The emerald version in the collection fetches an eye-watering £1.85 million, although the Juventus’ forward's timepiece appeared to have been finished with 424 glistening white diamonds. A similarly flashy customised watch, which appears to have been designed by Franck Muller, was bought by rapper Wizkid who is said to have paid $1.2m (£850,000). Ronaldo is back in Manchester to take on his former club in the Champions League as the Portuguese prepares to line up for Juventus in the eagerly anticipated Group H showdown at Old Trafford. It is some upgrade on Ronaldo's wrist after the Portuguese star was previously spotted sporting a £100,000 Jacob and Company limited edition H24 with a total diamond weight of 15.25 carats. He became a brand ambassador for Jacob&Co back in 2013 while at Real Madrid and is now sho...

Biafra: What Nnamdi Kanu said about 2019 elections, Trump, Fayose, his escape

Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), has finally broken his silence, since he resurfaced in Jerusalem, Israel. In a broadcast on Sunday evening, Kanu vowed not to return to the Federal High Court in Abuja, where he was standing trial before he left the country. The FG had charged him with treason but Binta Nyako, a judge of the Federal High court in Abuja, had granted him bail after 18 months in detention. Kanu had flouted all the terms of the bail, before the military invaded his Abia residence on September 14, 2017. In a broadcast via Radio Biafra, Kanu boasted: “I promised the Zoo that I will be coming to Biafra and I came. I do not recognise the court of the Zoo. I want the people of the Middle Belt to rise and join IPOB. “IPOB Military intelligent evacuated me from my compound, when the Army of the Zoo attacked me.

Chelsea Players Train As Manchester United Stars Arrive London For Crunch Match.

Maurizio Sarri and his Chelsea players have been completing their preparations for their huge Premier League clash with Manchester United and former boss Jose Mourinho on Saturday. The Blues took part in one final training session at their Cobham base on Friday afternoon as they looked to iron out the final details of their game plan for the highly-anticipated clash. Chelsea have started the new season in fine form, instantly adapting to their manager’s demands to join Manchester City and Liverpool in a three-way tussle for top spot in the Premier League. Their title credentials will come under threat on Saturday though as United aim to try and build on their late win over Newcastle a fortnight ago and turn their form around after a poor start. Belgian star Eden Hazard and his team-mates looked relaxed as they were pictured taking part in a number of exercises. Sarri was at the forefront of the practice, shouting instructions at his players as he looked to finalise his tactical ...

EPL: Denis Wise names Chelsea player better than Neymar, gives reason

Chelsea legend, Dennis Wise, has said that Eden Hazard was better than PSG star, Neymar. According to Wise, Hazard should cost Real Madrid over £200m because of his superior quality to Neymar. He said that any club planning to sign the Belgium star will have to break the transfer record to prise him out of Stamford Bridge. “He’s worth more than anyone,” Wise told Express Sport. “I think he’s better than Neymar – I really do. “What he’s done in the Premier League – the top league in the world – proves it. I think he’s a top-class player and I do think he’s better than Neymar.”

2019 is Nigeria’s last window to save itself, says Adebanjo

Adebanjo Mr. Rex Adebanjo is the presidential candidate of Youth Party of Nigeria (YPN). In this interview with LEO SOBECHI, he insists that youths have the biggest potential to transform Nigeria at this time, stressing that the 2019 election provides an opportunity for young people to rescue the country Why do you believe that the youth would make a difference in 2019 election? Nigeria’s situation is like the analogy of the frog. If there is boiling water and you drop a frog into it, it will jump right out. But if you leave it in cold water and slowly turn the fire on, the frog is going to boil to death. We are in a slow-boiling-frog situation. Everyone acts as if nothing is going wrong, while there is an upcoming explosion underneath all of us. Either from the divisions, the herdsmen, IPOB (Indigenous Peoples of Biafra) or militants in the Niger Delta, something will break, because the capacity of the government to contain it in terms of revenue is shrinking. Everyone is talk...
