“I had to personally cover the cost to ensure we got to Brazil”-Mikel Obi
“When I represented my country at the Olympics in Brazil, we faced delays because there was no flight available. We spent the entire day at the airport, waiting for a plane to take us to Brazil, but it never came. This was due to disputes over who would cover the travel costs.
The football association (FA) didn’t want to take responsibility for the expenses. Although the government released the funds, the FA or the person who received the money refused to allocate it. So, we were stranded at the airport all day with no flight available. In the end, I had to personally cover the cost to ensure we got to Brazil. These are just some of the challenges we faced.”

Popular Nollywood actor Richard Mofe-Damijo, popularly known as RMD reveals why he dislikes the description “legend”.
In his recent appearance on Curiosity Made Me Ask podcast, the actor stated that he thinks being called a legend is a scam.
“I think the legend of a thing is a scam, I have my legends like Uncle Pete and Uncle Olu Jacobs; these are our ancestors and legends.
“I have been watching him (Olu Jacobs) when he was saying Ribena children are the healthy children. So I don’t subscribe to being called legend and when they call me that I feel they are trying to relegate me to neighbourhood of retired people or those nearing retirement.”
