American writer, Nora Roberts responds to accusations of plagiarism?by Nigerian writer, Tomi Adeyemi and its epic
I am no Nora fan but i know she is among first 20 establiched writers world wide and my nigerian sister Tomi.... A few days back, Nigerian author Tomi Adeyemi called out American writer, Nora Roberts accusing her of stealing her book title.

'it would be nice if an artist could create something special without another artist trying to shamelessly profit off it' went viral and certainly got the attention of the international community'. Adeyrmi wrote on Twitter 

Nora Roberts reached out to her, explained things and Tomi was forced to make a partial retaction saying, 'Nora was kind enough to reach out & explain that today was the first she’d heard of my book. After talking to her, I believe our titles were created in isolation. I’m grateful she explained & I’ve apologized, but I wanted to address it here as I know others were upset too'.

Real Madrid told to pay €250m for Premier League star eyed as Luka Modric successor


Real Madrid will reportedly have to pay a whopping €250m if they wish to sign Christian Eriksen, putting any such swoop in doubt.
The 26-year-old has been a pivotal figure for Spurs since joining the club, and he re-emphasised his quality last season with 14 goals and 13 assists in 47 appearances.
As he continues to shine as a creative spark for Tottenham, it’s clear that they will have no wish to see him leave, and if he does, they will look to get a significant transfer fee for him to fill what would be a huge void that he leaves behind.

According to Marca, it could cost as much as €250m to try and prise him away from north London, and with that in mind, it’s surely difficult to see Real Madrid continuing their pursuit.
It’s added that the Danish international would be eyed as a successor to Luka Modric who will turn 34 next year, and so from that perspective, it’s a sensible strategy and Eriksen has shown on a consistent basis for a long period of time that he can deliver at the highest level.

'If both got hit by a bus, I wouldn't have a bad day' - 5O Cent says after his estranged son is pictured with McGriff's son who 'wanted him dead in 2000'


Rapper, 50 Cent, has publicly attacked his estranged son, Marquise Jackson, again after he was pictured with the son of Kenneth "Supreme" McGriff, a convicted American drug trafficker who was sentenced to life in prison in 2007 after being convicted of several murder-for-hires.
In 2000, 50 Cent was shot 9 times but survived the shooting. After recovering the rapper alleged in a leaked track,'Ghetto Qu'ran' where he claimed McGriff is behind the attempt on his life, during which he was shot 9 times.
In the new photo which was posted on Instagram on Thursday night, 50 Cent's son is pictured hanging out with the son of McGriff.

Man Utd & Man City given green light to seal transfer for €90m in potential blow for Chelsea


Real Madrid are reportedly ready to sell midfielder Toni Kroos if they receive €90million for him amid links with a potential transfer to the Premier League.
The latest report from Spanish outlet Don Balon states Manchester City are chasing Kroos, which makes sense as Pep Guardiola could do with a long-term replacement for Fernandinho in that area, while Ilkay Gundogan hasn’t always been quite consistent enough to establish himself as a regular since he joined the club.

A recent Don Balon report also linked Manchester United as admirers of the Germany international as well, and their need is arguably even greater after the retirement of Michael Carrick in the summer.

Woman laments as snake given to her by native doctor to make her rich starts having sex with her

Woman laments as snake given to her by native doctor to make her rich starts having sex with her

A woman who was given a snake by a native doctor to help her get rich is now lamenting after the snake began having sex with her rather than make her rich.

Zodwa Ngubane, a 42, from Angelo in South Africa, said a Sangoma (a South African traditional healer) gave her a baby snake in a jar six years ago to make her rich. Zodwa took the snake home after being told by the Sangoma that it will only work if she doesn't have sex with anyone else. She thought this command was strange but she really wanted to be rich so she didn't mind.

But that night she started feeling as if someone was performing oral sex on her and she loved it. She later discovered it was the snake. This has continued since then but Zodwa has remained poor.
Zodwa says though she enjoys what the snake does to her, she doesn't want to be poor forever.
