I Once wrestled with God- Victoria Inyama

Last Updated: 1 hour ago

Some of us must have forgotten about Victoria Inyama, a former Nollywood actress. The lady who is married to Ben Okri and lives abroad with her family has taken us through a memory lane during some of her most difficult moments in life. The last time we saw her was during a movie premiere in London in 2015

She narrates “Amazing how I can look cool during one of d most turbulent periods in my life? I actually cut my hair to herald a new phase of my life. June 2014. When tribulation pours, I had cried all night and woke up d next day, powdered my face; shoulders held up high, I took my selfie.”

She added “Truth is, all fall down but don’t stay down, weep then wipe your eyes and thank God for makeup. Face beat and whooooooshhhhh. Mind who you tell your problems to…What I do?? I dress down, knell down, groan, speak in tongues, cry, talk, I wrestle with my maker, because he Alone knows. Weeping may endure at night but We Rise and up up in d morning. Try Never to wear the problems. Have Faith in God. Believe in his Promises. Hope and Pray. We have a God who never fails. Good."

Heroic Marine who saved about 70 people on the night of the orlando club shootout receives praises from the public.

When the terrifying blasts of rapid gunfire filled an Orlando nightclub early Sunday morning, many clubgoers panicked or froze. Amid the swirl of sensory overload, their response was overwhelmingly typical of people under threat. In an emergency situation — as any first responder can attest — a victim’s first challenge is overriding the paralysis brought on by extreme fear and confusion. Imran Yousuf, a bouncer at the Pulse nightclub, had an advantage. A Marine who had served in Afghanistan, Yousuf was able to use his training to quickly identify the impending threat and remain clear-headed as people died around him, according to the Marine Corps Times . Because of the 24-year-old’s decisive actions, he is being credited with saving dozens of lives. He told CBS News that he knew something was horribly wrong as soon as he heard the familiar crack of gunfire. It was then, he said, that his training took over. “The initial one was three or four” shots, said Yousuf, ...

Guess who is talking with Cleveland Cavaliers...Dwayne Wade!

Although somewhat far-fetched, the possibility is not out of the question. Despite being offered the $20 million annually he was seeking, from the Miami Heat , Wade is chatting up the Cleveland Cavaliers . Huffington Post sports columnist Jordan Schultz reported the news.

There could be bad blood between the 12-time All-Star and the organization he has spent 13 seasons with. His wife, Gabrielle Union, alluded to that with a tweet last week saying: "When u waiting for a text/email/skywriting and nada... thanks for being crystal clear." The Heat was silent with Wade as it pursued free agent big-fish Kevin...
