"Iyanya Didn't Dump Me, I Dumped Him"

When we all thought the Yvonne Nelson-Iyana » love saga was all over, social media is bringing everything back to life again. After granting two major interviews on her controversial love life with the 'Your Waist' crooner late 2013 - with BellaNaija & The Juice - Yvonne Nelson » says perhaps something wrong was gotten from both sittings... on the issue of who dumped who? In a new interview with AllAfrica.com, the Ghanaian super woman may have insinuated that both interviews, including a meeting with Beat99.9 FM's Toolz, she was not interpreted perfectly. "I granted interviews on this whole thing: Bella Naija and Toolz (The Juice). I don't want to repeat myself," she told the site. "My interviewers took whatever they wanted to take away from the interviews i granted them." she ended. Not wanting to dive deep into the past, she rested her case but according to rumours, Nollywood actress Tonto Dikeh was the root of the...

Welbeck answers critics in style

Danny Welbeck answered critics who have questioned his goalscoring ability in emphatic fashion on Wednesday with his first senior hat-trick in Arsenal's 4-1 win over Galatasaray in the Champions League. The 23-year-old England international has impressed with his work rate and link-up play since signing from Manchester United on transfer deadline day, but doubts remained about his predatory instinct in front of goal.

Dean Qiongxiu, 66, said she discovered the reptile clinging to the wall of her bedroom with its talons in the middle of the night. “I woke up and heard a strange scratching sound. I turned on the light and saw this monster working its way along the wall using his claw,” said Mrs Duan of Suining, southwest China. Mrs Duan said she was so scared she grabbed a shoe and beat the snake to death before preserving its body in a bottle of alcohol. The snake – 16 inches long and the thickness of a little finger – is now being studied at the Life Sciences Department at China’s West Normal University in Nanchang. Snake expert Long Shuai said: “It is truly shocking but we won’t know the cause until we’ve conducted an autopsy.” A more common mutation among snakes is the growth of a second head, which occurs in a similar way to the formation of Siamese twins in humans. Such animals are often caught and preserved as lucky tokens but have very little chance of surviving in the wild anyway, especi...
