The hiring of Rafael Benitez as Real Madrid boss on Wednesday makes the Spaniard the 10th coach to serve under Florentino Perez during his two spells as the club’s president between June 2000-February 2006 and since June 2009.  The 68-year-old has sanctioned the spending of reportedly over a billion euros on transfer fees during that time for the return of three league titles, two Champions Leagues and two Copa del Reys.  Here, AFP sports looks at the nine men that have come and gone under Perez’s leadership:  Vicente del Bosque (November 1999-June 2003)  Arguably Perez’s most famous and ludicrous decision was to let the now Spanish national team manager go just days after he had won a second league title in three seasons. 

With the genetic, physiological, as well as the nutritional sciences expanding forward in their discoveries, we simply know today that women’s health includes some different precautions, needs and characteristics. What we are told as women in the mainstream media however, is not always for the good of our health. All too often it serves more the well-being of the pharmaceutical companies and other corporations, who all too often prey on the fact that women do tend to be more proactive about their health, and thus willing to buy or use more products than men, while having less quality time for themselves. Thus today, I share with you 5 important health tips every woman should know, when it comes to optimal health from the holistic and natural point of view.

CEO of AFRIFF, Chioma Ude, has revealed the reason Nigerian movies are yet to get much recognition from global film awards and festivals. She revealed this while speaking as a panelist at the Nigerian Entertainment Conference alongside Wunmi Obe, Femi Falodun and Theo Lawson. According to her, the major reason is because most of the movies do not have as much local language content as required to enter the Foreign Film categories at most of the world’s biggest award shows. “We need to understand what this category is about and the criteria for entry. Movies in this category are expected to have rich cultural elements which must reflect in the language, story, music and all other elements present in the film. Although, things are getting better now, as Nollywood got an invitation from the Oscars last year, and hopefully will get a slot soon. The right film must have at least 51% local language content to be accepted into the Foreign Language Film category.’ Speaking f

My name is Emmanuel Senayon. I thank God for his divine grace in my life who gave me the golden grace to see this revelation. The Lord promised me in my first encounter, to visit me again, to show me the mystery because his coming is very near and Satan is working so hard to win souls for his ugly kingdom. It all happened on the 26th of January 2013 around 6am in the morning when I slept and I didn't know that my body was already dead here on earth. I saw the Lord, he said, "COME! I WANT TO SHOW YOU THE PLAN OF THE DEVIL AGAINST MAN." The Lord took my hand and we arrived before the throne of

Photo of a UTME student  Many of the candidates writing the ongoing Joint Admissions and Matriculation (JAMB) Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) have expressed their grievances over the sudden slash of the time given to them to finish their papers. Some of the affected students writing the examination, which kicked off on March 9 and ends on the 21st, voiced out their frustrations to News Express Correspondent in Ibadan. Mariam Ahmed Olayinka, who sat for the Computer Based Test (CBT) exam at the ICT Centre, The Polytechnic Ibadan, said she was slated to write her exam from 1:30 p.m., as stated on her slip, but her batch was called in at about 5pm – after about four hours delay.

A Photo of Pope Francis  Two years to the day after he was elected to lead the world’s 1.1 billion Catholics, Pope Francis said today that he expects to have only a short papacy. An ABC News report quoted him as telling Mexican broadcaster Televisa: “I have the feeling that my Pontificate will be brief, 4 or 5 years; I do not know, even 2 or 3. “I feel that the Lord has placed me here for a short time, and nothing more.” The report said the 78-year-old pontiff compared the feeling to “a gambler who convinces himself he will lose so he won’t be disappointed. And if he wins, he’s happy.” When asked if he liked being pope, Francis reportedly told the interviewer that he doesn’t mind, but that he also wouldn’t mind some degree of anonymity. “The only thing I would like is to go out one day, without being recognized, and go to a pizzeria for a pizza,” he was quoted to have said. Francis, who assumed the office following the resignation of Pope Benedict XVI, mark

Director of Media and Publicity of the Peoples Democratic Party Presidential Campaign Organisation (PDPPCO), Chief Femi Fani-Kayode has assured corrupt leaders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) that nemesis would soon catch up with them. Fani-Kayode spoke against the backdrop of a forged letter purportedly signed by the Chief of Staff to the President, Brigadier Jones Arogbofa and believed to have been circulated by the opposition APC. According to him, “We have said it before and we shall say it again: the entire leadership of the APC is suffering from paranoia and delusion. They are hiding under their beds and running from their own shadows. This is a clear case of the biblical provisions that say ‘there is no peace for the wicked’ and that ‘the wicked run even when no-one is pursuing them.’ These people have lost their peace and they are running even when no-one is pursuing them. “If they are so sure of winning the election and if their hands are clean t
