Mata seals Chelsea spot in last eight at Arsenal's expense

Chelsea booked their place in the last eight of the League Cup with a comfortable 2-0 win over Arsenal at the Emirates.

Goals from Cesar Azpilicueta and Juan Mata gave Jose Mourinho’s side a convincing victory at the home of their London rivals as Arsene Wenger’s search for his first win over the Portuguese continues. 
After complaining about the scheduling of the tie Mourinho made no less than 10 changes from the side that defeated Manchester City on Sunday, with Gary Cahill the sole survivor. Wenger also made changes from the team he had fielded at the weekend, with Nicklas Bendtner and Ryo Miyaichi coming in for Olivier Giroud and Mesut Ozil.

Student Breaks Unilorin Record, Gets First Class In Law


Abiodun Kazeem is the first graduate to bag the first class grade in the Faculty of Law, University of Ilorin,

If you call him a jinx breaker, you are not far from the truth. The reason is that many students had tried to graduate from the University of Ilorin with a first class degree in Law for many years, but they failed for one reason or the other. Finally, on Tuesday, however, Abiodun Kazeem achieved the feat, drawing accolades from many people.

Kazeem studied Common and Islamic Law at the institution, which became a full fledged university in 1976. Achieving this feat, according to him, is something he will always cherish. But he never forgets to note that his march through the system was a tough one.

The supervising Minister of Education, Nyeson Wike had thought that it would be a piece of cake for him to go into a discussion with the leadership of ASUU and come out smiling after a compromise, but was shocked at the recent meeting in Abuja when it became obvious that ASUU is very serious.

His plan to use the resolution of the strike to lobby President Jonathan to make a full Minister of Education has does suffered a serious set back. It doesn't seem that would happen anytime soon and it appears ASUU and its leadership are not ready to accept anything less.

Mercy Johnson Can't Beat My Hips -Crystal Okoye














              Crystal                                                   Mercy

Crystal Okoye hasn't got a profile as long as an arm but her profile is rich, unusual and fascinating. Barely a year on the acting scene, the curvaceous twenty-something has done 18 movies, that's a profile even the best in the industry will gawk at. In this chat with Weekend Groove, the newest sensation in Nollywood as she  has come to be known shares her experience, her rise to fame and what makes her tick: enjoy…

What has worked for you in the industry; your talent or beauty?
I will say both. Before then I used to look at myself in the mirror and tell myself 'Crystal, you are beautiful'. I am beautiful. I am well-shaped. I have straight legs. I decided to come into the industry, not just with my physical attributes but also because of my talents.

In Nollywood, you may be beautiful but if you are not talented you can't get any where but I thank God I have everything. The talent, the beauty, the figure and everything. In Nollywood, beauty and talent goes hand in hand.

What about your embarrassing moments? 
The one I can remember happened when I was still looking to have a shot at acting. Then, I reported at a location and the producer gave me a note where he instructed me to meet him at a hotel room. I felt so embarrassed.

Achieving legendary eminence never comes on a silver platter but that is what one of Nollywood’s icons has become.

Olu Jacobs, often times referred to as the granddad of Nollywood has achieved great feats in the industry beyond standards he probably set for himself.

From the old days of the mid 90’s when he acted together with Omotola Jalade and Emeka Ike in “Day Break”, to some of his most current movies, the style and class he brings into his roles is second to none; from the trademark roaring voice when he is angry and intent on creating mischief especially when he gets offended or his child goes contrary to his commands, to the sweet and fatherly affection he displays when pleased,
