At the Cannes Lions communications and advertising festival in France on Tuesday, Kanye West   got candid about his relationship with Kim Kardashian , his wedding, and his career. On why people constantly bash him and Kim : “I always say that if Vogue had come out before the ‘ Bound ‘ video then everyone would have been like, ‘Oh it’s OK’ and that’s the endorsement. It took something established like Vogue to make everything OK and we had to wait. Like we had the wedding and then they were like ‘that’s cool now’ because we were told by people who endorsed it.

What he played was not the role I asked him to play”, he said leaving many journalists bewildered. On a night that Emmanuel Emenike was a shadow of himself and instead of being the point man, decided to be playing wide from the wings coupled with wrong passes from Mikel and Ogenyi Onazi, the introduction of Osaze at least brought a sparkling ray of hope. At one instance, he fired a ferocious shot that got everybody standing on their feet as the ball narrowly missed target. He passed balls accurately but Keshi would not have that credit go him. ‘’I don’t know what he played. What he played was not what I asked him to play”, he insisted.

Carlos Queiroz, coach of  Team Melli ,  Iran’s national football team, says the scoreless draw of the Nigeria vs. Iran match is a huge achievement for his team. According to him, his players have only ever played in amateur leagues. And so the fact that they could give the more experienced  Super Eagles players  a tough time, is commendable. He says his team celebrated after the match. “They deserved the celebration because of the hard work they put in to contain the Nigerians, particularly because of the high pedigree of players that made up the Eagles. We came out of a difficult condition. We did not even enjoy the luxury of playing friendly games. We played an honest game. “It is better to go home with a point rather than praises as losers,” he said.

The Chairman, Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission, Dr. Sam Amadi, has raised the alarm that any attempt made to suspend the planned review of the electricity tariff regime will result in the death of the power sector. According to reports from The Punch newspaper,Dr.Amadi said that the tariff had been spelt out in a plan covering 2012 to 2015, which was published by the commission. He stressed that from the plan, there were stipulated tariffs for every year tied to three major milestones – quantity of power supply, foreign exchange and inflation trends. On the call by the organised labour and other stakeholders to halt the planned increase in the electricity tariff, Amadi said it was unnecessary as the people canvassing the suspension had no good understanding of the tariff system. “If we suspend the review of the tariff, we will only be killing the sector.
