Celebrity Boxing: What Phyna Must Do To Beat Nkechi Blessing - Sports

Image
  I am not a big fan of celebrity boxing. I believe boxing is serious business. It is called the “hurt business” for a reason, and this is why there is no truly friendly bout in boxing. In recent years, people have died in the ring or from complications arising from injuries sustained in the ring. But again, boxing is entertainment. If people find celebrity boxing entertaining, then that's it. Most of the celebrity boxing bouts in Nigeria have hardly lived up to expectations, especially the recent fight nobody asked for between Portable and Charles Okocha. We expected more. The promoters of celebrity boxing in Nigeria have now smuggled in another fight between former Big Brother Naija star Phyna, Ijeoma Josephina Otabor, and Nollywood actress Nkechi Blessing Sunday. I must confess that I like the matchup because both women are controversial and fiery in nature. There is also an interesting difference in their size and age. Nkechi is 37, while Phyna is 29. Phyna is of a slim build, ...

  What the OK Movement is doing is nonsensical. It is unheard of — NDC National Leader, Seriake Dickson The National Leader of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), Senator Seriake Dickson, has criticised the activities of the OK Movement, warning political support groups affiliated with the party against operating as parallel structures or competing with it for control. Dickson spoke while receiving former Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Babachir Lawal, into the NDC. “Support groups don’t compete with the political party that is sponsoring candidates. Support groups don’t compete for supremacy, for space. Support groups are what they are: support groups.” He added, “Support groups don’t play the role of a political party. They don’t sponsor candidates. They provide grassroots support, mobilisation, and support. They don’t convert themselves to become critics of the political party sponsored.” Dickson said the NDC has made room for support groups, noting, “The...
