Following the alleged death of the Ooni of Ife, Oba Okunade Sijuwade, traditionalists in Ile-Ife, Osun state, have declared a seven-day sacred traditional Oro festival.
During the seven-day period of the festival, residents of the ancient town, especially women must not stay outside beyond p.m.
Though the reason for the declaration of the Oro festival was not known, informed sources believe it might be in connection with the alleged death of the traditional ruler of the town, the Ooni of Ife, which his chiefs have continued to dismiss and described as mere rumour, The Nation reports.
Some other sources however, said that the festival had nothing to do with the alleged death of the Ooni.
 
It was gathered from sources that the traditionalists would use the 7-day period to appease the gods and perform necessary rituals that would make the town to enjoy peace and also avert looming danger in Ife and its environs.
According to the sources, whoever violates the traditional order of the oro festival will have themselves to blame for the dire consequence.
The sources who pleaded anonymity claimed that this year edition of the festival only coincided with the “rumoured death” of the town’s monarch.
To prove that Oba Sijuwade is alive, they said: “There is a door that remained closed during the life time of a sitting monarch, and since the door remained closed, it means that the monarch is presumed to be alive.
 
“The closure of markets to business and ringing of a special bell to announce the death of the monarch are two major significant signs to show that a monarch has joined his ancestors and these are yet to be done.”
surfaced during the week but the Royal Traditional Council (RTC) of the town, on Wednesday,  July 29, stated that the paramount ruler is alive and in good state of health.
Meanwhile, major markets in the ancient town have remain opened, as commercial and economic activities continued.
Also, the Ooni palace at Enuwa was calm and devoid of the usual human and vehicular traffic, except for the presence of the private guards and about four police men manning the gates of the palace.
Despite the denial of Oba’s death, the Premium Times reports that the body of Ooni of Ife, Okunade Sijuwade, has arrived his palace in Ile Ife, Osun state.
Ooni of Ife, Oba Sijuade Okunade
However, authorities and prominent Ile-Ife personalities insist the Oba is alive, and is hale and hearty.
Insiders in palace said on August, 1 that the remains of the paramount ruler left London in a hired air ambulance on Friday and was taken to the palace under the cover of night.
 
According to the sources, the body is now lying in a secret part of the palace named Ilegbo, a sacred place where all Oonis gather with their relatives.
Ilegbo reportedly is the place where highly-prized rituals take place within the parturiency of the palace.
It is also the place where the Are covered with crown, worn yearly by the Ooni, is kept.
Only the monarch’s male children, highly ranked priests and chiefs are reportedly permitted to enter that inmost places of the palace and sight the Ooni’s body.
“Even the Oba’s female children can’t come here, tradition does not allow them to sight the Oba at this time,” one of the sources said.
Palace sources said the announcement of the Oba’s death had to be postponed to let his wives and family members move their personal property from the palace, and for the traditional clerics to perform some “compulsory rituals”.
 
“Members of his family who were with him in London had to hurry back home to remove their personal effects because once his death is declared all their property will belong to the people. They won’t be able to take anything from the palace anymore,” another source said.
It should be noted that after the supposed death of the Ooni of Ife



Following the alleged death of the Ooni of Ife, Oba Okunade Sijuwade, members of a fraternity reportedly entered into Oduduwa shrine and other sacred forests on Thursday, August 6, to perform further rites on his transition.
According to This Day, a source in Ile-Ife disclosed that all the heads of the fraternity groups in the town which the monarch belonged to, had been asked to start invoking their gods and also perform necessary rites for the royal father.
The source added that at the shrines of the deities, the traditionalists had been assigned specific duties in regards to the sacrifices that would be suitable for the transition of Sijuwade.
A source close to the palace, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said those who have been assigned specific duties are Osogun, Obalara, Lana and Emese. They are all said to be operating under “Isoro” deity, which is the father of all deities in the land.
 
He also gave the name of the head of Isoro deity as Obadio, saying he is also in charge of dialect and languages of gods and goddesses of the land.

When you're right in the middle of basking in your 15 minutes of fame, you're focused, you're making sure you spell your name correctly, and you're sure as hell not looking behind you to notice Sam Smith making faces.
Unfortunately for Luisa Morgan and Hannah Madison (or fortunately, depending on how you look at it), that's exactly what happened earlier this week. The Grammy winner was getting his first glimpse of the famed Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Denver, Colorado — which he was pretty darn excited about, judging from his Instagram — when, lo and behold, a camera crew was interviewing a pair of girls about their yoga event.
"They've got beginner to advanced instructors on stage and they will help you out," Luisa says as Smith walks up behind her and makes a peace sign. "You're getting photobombed," the cameraman warns her. They just laugh. A few moments later, Luisa even tells the scene stealer to "get out of here."

The Nigerian Fashion is growing and new fashion trends keep coming out every now and then. We see a lot of young professionals diverting from regular jobs to venture into the Nigerian fashion industry.
Bolanle Adeola a young and innovative lady, who is a Law graduate from the University of Lagos, specializes in both male and female traditional outfits; she has a few things to say:
 

Why did you deviate from Law to Fashion?
I have not deviated from law completely, though you will be right to say fashion takes more of my time than my legal profession. Fashion is simply me! I love looking good at all times and staying classy. My interest in fashion, especially the native attire I specialize in is simply to promote our cultural values, as it makes one stand out.
Who is your target market?
My market audience is everybody, even though I target the politicians and the business men, as they tend to wear native attires every day as they run their own business and not restricted to Shirt and Tie office wear. In as much as they are my main target, other persons are not exempted as they also patronize me, because they usually wear natives on weekends, to weddings and events. I guess it’s safe to say that I can sell to everybody- males, females and also kids.
What kind of fabrics do you specialize in?
I specialize in Atiku, guinea brocade, wool, polished lace, Linen for Men and guipure, raw silk, chiffon and sequin.
Can you give us a list of celebrities that have patronized you?
Jide Obanikoro, Falz the bad guy and many more.
Where do you see Nigerian fashion in five years?
The fashion industry is growing large and wide and in about five years, I think everybody will be more receptive towards it and be more into our cultural attire and accept the native world, where they can choose their own styles and stand out uniquely. I think in five years we will have more people accepting our creative, leaving English attires and showcasing our cultural values.

City People Magazine in conjunction with Wise-Plus Concepts and the student union of Faculty of Education, is set to storm Lagos with the second edition of its concert tagged:  “Students On The Runway 2”.
The event which is scheduled for August 21st at the Education Auditorium, UNILAG is theme for Student Empowerment by way of scholarship/empowerment for students to fashion schools; beauty/make-up training; as well as bead making skills. And again, there will be a fashion show/seminar which will feature celebrity fashion designers as well as budding fashion designers on campuses. There will also be music segment that will feature top artistes and comedians in the music industry.

Other activities lined up for the event include road walk which will take ‘Students On The Runway’ on campaign tours to 4 different higher institutions.
World-renowned motivational speaker, Gbenga Ademujimi will be the keynote speaker at the 2015 ‘Students On The Runway’. Also expected to speak on the importance of hard work are brand managers from different organizations.
The maiden edition, which held on 14th March 2015 at the University of Lagos,  was based on skills acquisition for students in different areas of human endeavours. There was also a Fashion show aimed at promoting decent dressing culture on the campus amongst students. ‘Students On The Runway’ is a twice in a session programme which has in its kitty a special publication.

Most times, people don’t consider their size and shape in choosing what to wear most especially when going for an occasion. This results to “fashion error”.
Irrespective of your shape and size, you can look fabulous and almost as though perfect.  All it takes is a little know-how and a healthy dose of confidence. Looking good is not about the number on your clothing tags, but about dressing yourself in a way that makes you feel comfortable and shows off your features. It’s time to use fashion to make the most of your curves.
 
If you are overweight, always consider some of the folded areas in your body, the colors, cut and patterns you wear can draw people’s eyes toward or away from your figure. Don’t put ruffles on anything you want to look smaller; do put them on areas you want to emphasize, and a flattering color can make your skin tone glow, while the wrong one can make you look sallow and washed-out. . Clothes are not supposed to make you feel bad about yourself, so avoid inconveniences and tight-ups.
For the average weighted or skinny person, getting what fits most times seems not to be a problem or let me say choice! All that is required is adding curves to your frame. But always avoid clingy clothing as a skinny person and for the average weighted, make it look cool on you. Certain fabrics suit you more, which is fabrics with some structure are great for creating the illusion of curve, but don make it too bulky so you don’t look rigid with your frame.

Manchester United manager, Louis van Gaal has revealed that he wants to leave the English giants in no too distant future.
The former Barcelona coach stated that he needs to sign a superstar in the mould of Cristiano Ronaldo in order to achieve his primary ambition of winning the Premier League before he leaves Manchester United in two years.
In an interview with Sky Sports News HQ’s Vinny O’Connor, the former Holland manager admitted that two years is the time limit he has given himself to win the Premier League title, after which he will walk away from the club, whatever happens.
Louis van Gaal, the Manchester United manager, has revealed that he could leave the club in the next two seasons
 
He said:“I think we still need more speed in front and also more creativity and that is why I want (Angel) Di Maria to stay, but, we don’t know that so we will have to see.
“Bayern Munich – they have Ribery and Robben. Chelsea have Hazard and Willian. Real Madrid: Ronaldo and Bale. Barcelona: Neymar and Messi.
“(Ashley) Young and (Juan) Mata had fantastic seasons with assists and goals but to win the Champions League, you need speed also. That is why I think, maybe, we still have to buy a player with speed and creativity.”
On whether he wants Di Maria to stay at Manchester United, van Gaal stated that, “I cannot answer these questions. When we shall buy a player and he has signed, then we shall say. But not in a process and not in a strategy.
“I cannot say that. I want to say it. For the fans I want to say it. But it is not smart. I have to protect the interests of the club.”
On whether he can sign Real Madrid’s Ronaldo, he said: “Now, I make an exception for Ronaldo. He is a fantastic player. But he knows that. But I like him.
 
“I promised that to my wife. We have not many years together any more.
“I have to admit I have said to her when I met her and after our relationship seemed to be very good, then I said at 55 years I shall quit. Now I am still working and next week I am 64.
“I have done everything in my career as a manager. I have been in the Netherlands, my home country. I have been in Spain, fantastic league. Germany, fantastic league. Now I am here.
“Also to participate in a world championship. I have done that. So, I have to go to Qatar to earn still more money? I don’t think so. You have to enjoy also your life and your relationship with your wife.”
Recall that the club was recently d.

Montreal Impact of the Major league Soccer (MLS) on Monday night announced the signing of one of the greatest African footballers ever; Didier Drogba.
The club announced the two time African footballer of the year would be a designated player, following a trade with the Chicago Fire, in return for general and targeted allocation money.
Naij.com hence compiles a list of the biggest African footballers to have played of still playing in the league.
1. Obafemi Martins – Nigeria: Nigerian striker, Obafemi ‘Obagoal’ Martins left Levante of Spain in 2013 to sign for Seattle Sounders of the MLS and in 62 games, he has scored . He moved after Seattle paid the $4 million buyout clause in Martins’ contract with Levante. In his two years with the club, MArtins has won the Supporter Shield; he provided the assist for Marco Pappa’s first goal as Seattle defeated the Galaxy 2–0. He finished his first season  with 17 goals during the regular season (a club record) as well as notching 13 assists, a joint-club record held with Mauro Rosales.
In his second season with the club he was named as one of three MLS MVP finalists. Martins was named to the MLS Best XI and the Sounders won every game in which he scored. He also won MLS Goal of the Year for a looping goal he shot from an extremely tight angle near the end line into the far netting over Earthquakes keeper Jon Busch.
Didier Drogba – Ivory Coast: A new signing in the league and already one of the biggest imports into the league. He is yet to play a game but he will sign on the dotted line when his International Transfer Certificate (ITC) and his Canadian work permit issues are sorted out. The two-fime African footballer of the year has played for clubs such as Chelsea of England, Galatasary, Le Mans, Olympique De Marseille and Shanghai Shenhua of China.
Bright Dike: The Super Eagles striker plays for San Antonio Scorpions on loan from Toronto FC.  He is cousin of Super Eagles striker Emmanuel Emenike. He has played his entire professional career in the USA where he was born and raised. He has played for the Portland Timbers, Indiana Invaders, Toronto FC and Los Angeles blues.
Nigerians will most likely remember him for his goal against Italy in a pre-world cup friendly match (his first official goal for the Super Eagles) in the 35th minute with an assist by Shola Ameobi.
His sister Courtney is also a soccer player, who played for the Nigeria women’s national under-20 football team the 2014 FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup in Canada.
Djimi Traore – Mali: it seems funny to imagine that Djimi Traore started in that magical night in Istanbul in 2005 when Liverpool came from three goals down to draw 3-3 with AC Milan a UEFA Champions league final. Traore contributed to Liverpool’s success that season when he made a goal-line clearance from an Andriey Shevchenko strike.

Traore moved to the Seattle Sounder of the MLS on 23 February 2013 when he MLS club signed with the MLS club after a successful preseason trial. His first goal for the club was a 30 yard volley off the underside of the crossbar, during a CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinal match against Tigres of Mexico.
The Malian won the MLS supporters shield in 2014 as a teammate of Obafemi Martins. He played for Monaco, Marseille, Charlton Athhletic and Portmouth. He retired in 2014.
Celestine Babayaro – Nigeria: Babayaro is a former Chelsea and Newcastle full back  who on 21 January 2008, came to an agreement with the Los Angeles Galaxy to join them on a three-year contract, effective immediately. His stay was however short lived due to bad behaviour and other demeanors.
According to Wikipedia: “…thinking that he had arrived at sort of an American superclub that only a year earlier gave David Beckham what was widely reported to be the $250 million contract, Babayaro was agitated by what he considered to be “shabby” accommodations – from having to fly in the economy class to sharing a hotel room on the road. His lack of commitment in training and preseason games reflected those feelings and he soon got on Gullit’s and club president and general manager Alexi Lalas’s bad side.
On 3 March, Babayaro was waived by the Galaxy after playing only 45 minutes in a preseason friendly against FC Seoul, receiving a yellow card and conceding a penalty in the process. The reason for this unexpected release was not stated explicitly by Galaxy front office. “After a period of evaluation, it was decided that it would be in the best interest of the club and the player to part ways,” Lalas said in a statement. “It is unfortunate that it did not work out, but Ruud and our technical staff are hard at work putting together this team and difficult decisions have to be made.”



Following Sunday’s 0-1 loss to Arsenal in the Community Shield preseason friendly, Chelsea manager, Jose Mourinho, has stated that his team was better than Arsenal.
According to BBC Sports, the former Real Madrid of Spain coach threw a jibe at his Arsenal counterpart, Arsene Wenger, stating that the Frenchman ignored his philosophy of free flowing football for a defensive approach to the encounter.
“The best team lost. And the defensive team won. If you want to be pragmatic, like I normally am, I say in a simple way, they score, they didn’t concede. Well done. Congratulations,” he said.

 
“Other clubs, other managers you say are boring, that they park the bus, I don’t agree with that. I say they were very well organised and because of that I give total credit,” the Chelsea boss noted further.
Chelsea manager, Jose Mourinho, snubbed Arsene Wenger, during last weekend’s Community Shield loss to Arsenal
On the purported handshake snub of Wenger in the former Monaco gaffer’s first ever win against the self-styled “Special One”, the Chelsea coach denied ever coming up with such tantrum, claiming however, that his counterpart may have done that purposely.
Since February last year when Mourinho called Wenger “a specialist in failure”, and the Arsenal boss replying that his Chelsea counterpart was being “disrespectful”, the pair have had tensions mounting.
And after Arsenal’s win on Sunday, Mourinho shook hands with the Arsenal players after they had collected the shield but missed Wenger when the Frenchman walked behind him.
Wenger said: “I shook a few hands today after the game, but there’s nothing special there. I believe in a job where you have to respect people and respect everybody.”
 
And Mourinho explained what happened, or did not happen, to BBC Radio 5 live reporter Juliette Ferrington thus:
JF: “You shook the hands of all the Arsenal players after they were presented with the shield but you didn’t shake the hand of Arsene Wenger?”
JM: “It is not true, It is not true. You have to look at it and it’s not true.”
JF: “We saw you.”
JM: “No you didn’t. You saw me wait for them and shake the hands of everyone who left the stairs just in my direction, so you are not right.”
Mourinho had blasted the Frenchman players.
