Russian billionaire and owner of Chelsea FC, Roman Abramovich is the proud owner of Eclipse, a super-yacht which comes with two swimming pools and a missile-defense system.

Abramovich is currently domiciled in Israel and hasn’t been able to watch his Premier League club play since the start of this season due to visa issues. The British government failed to renew his papers in May.

Seven of his properties in the UK remain unoccupied, including two houses in Lowndes Square, Belgravia, together worth more than £150 million.

The Chelsea owner however spends most of his time in his most lavish and extravagant residence the ‘super-yacht Eclipse’ which cost about KSh38 billion as at 2010 when he bought it.

He spends close to KSh130 billion overall in upgrades and maintenance for the yacht (533ft) which is more than twice the size of the pitch at Stamford Bridge. It was the biggest yacht around when he bought it.

Eclipse has nine decks with two helipads and a garage. On the eighth deck is a swimming pool and a sundeck. Each cabins in the yacht come with a private 6ft home cinema screen, a Jacuzzi, spa and specialized security systems.

The Eclipse also has a huge gym and spa area with a beauty salon, sauna and massage room. Lower decks contains the suites and cabins that can house 32 guests and 100 crew.

Top 10 Most Influential African Tribes During Atlantic Slave Trade

Atlantic slave trade is the most unfortunate activity in the history because it displaced many Africans from their homes. It created a legacy of oppression for the descendants and generations to come.

10th is the least influential while 1st makes the top. 

Lets go.


10th Position: Chamba people

They are located in Northern Nigerian and Cameroun. They are an African ethnic group found in the Gongola State of east-central Nigeria and neighboring parts of north Cameroon.They speak two distantly related languages: Chamba Leko, of the Leko–Nimbari languages, and Chamba Daka, of the Dakoid languages, both of which are a Niger-Congo language
They were victims of Fulanis Jihadi slavery in the 18th and 19ths century. Things went really bad for them that they migrated into the mountains to form Guerrilla groups attacking Fulani slave merchants.




9th Position: Wolof people

They are found in Senegal and some parts of Mali. Their origin is widely debated. But mainstream knowledge has it that they originated from the north and later migrated down south. They found their own empire, but warring made them split and this made them vulnerable to slave hunters. Most wolofs are Muslims. They had a violent Jihad past that further exposed them to slavery either as slave merchants or as victims.





8th Position: Abron people

They inhabited the border of Côte d'Ivoire, Ghana and Burkina Faso. They were at the center of popular gold coast. Many of them were taken slavery and were given a specific name in Jamaica called “Koromantis”.



7th Position: Fulani people

Fulanis are one of the largest ethnic groups in West Africa. They are nomadic in nature and present in East and West Africa. They can be found in Senegal and all the way to Central African Republic. Other places they inhabit includes, Niger, Mali, Nigeria, Guinea and Cameroun. Their origin is highly debated, but their origin has been traced to North Africa. They were somehow the original people in North Africa due to their paintings in Nigeria which are dated to 6000BC North Africa. In fact, their history is rich and full. 

The fulanis embraced Islam very early. They have many prominent Jihadis who swept across Africa. Example is Usman Danfodio. Ironically, as prominent as their shieks and Jihadis in slave trades, Fulanis were also victims of Slavery themselves. It was recorded that they were hugely enslaved. Some of the most popular slaves taken to new worlds are fulanis. Exampl, Umar Ibin-saeed, Abdulrahaman and Dialo. Most were taken to America specifically.




6th Position: Mende people

Mende are collections of African tribes speaking the Language “Mende”. There are so many tribes in Africa speaking Mende, therefore, its illogical to call Mende a single tribe. But the prominent of all is Mendenka. Mendenka built one of the largest empire in West Africa. They raided the coast line of West Africa and mingled with Coast line people. Even some Fulanis have Mendenka ancestry. Origin of Mendenka is largely the Sahara. Archaeology discovered Mendenka to be first builder of stone settlement civilization in West Africa. Mende Culture was the most dominant in West Africa from 1100bc to 1600BC.

5th Position: Fon people

They are the largest ethnic group in Benin Republic. They are also found in South West Nigeria. They are hybrid of other African tribes. Oral history has it that they were formed from intermarriage of Aijaa and Yorubas creating a new ethnic group called Fon. The Fon people created a very popular kingdom called Dahomey as they are well known for their female warriors. In fact Black Panthers movies was inspired by Dahomey Female warriors (Amazonian Warriors). They were victims and victimized during the slave trade. They are the most popular in Trinidad and T, Haiti. Due to their Yoruba ancestry, they are renowned for their black Juju practice in America. There black magic origin is traced to the Yorubas. Voodoo was significant during their war of freedom from slavery.

4th Position: Bokango People
Bokango people are Bantu people living along the coastal region of Central African Republic. They live primarily in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Republic of Congo and Angola. Similar to Mendenka, they built one of the Largest empire in Central Africa. They are one of the African tribes that converted to Christianity at the early stage of Slavery. They basically had encounter with Portuguese trade merchants. They were mostly victims of slavery and it was on record that the king of Bokango wrote a legendary letter to the Portuguese. It got so bad that the king son himself was also taken slavery offshore. His name is Gando-Simba. He was a brave Bokango soldier. Most Bokango slaves were taken to southern America


3rd Position: Igbo People

Igbos are native to South Central and South Eastern part of Nigeria. Igbos are one of the largest ethnic groups in Africa. Even though their origin is widely debated, their presence has been recorded got thousands of years. Igbos were caught up in the slave trade as a result of the migration of Aro confederacy. The Aros migrated to Igbo land due to high demand for slaves. Aros capture and hunt Igbos and sell them to the Europeans. Igbos sold to Europeans accounted for 13% of slaves mined from Africa.




2nd Position: Yoruba People

They are African tribes of North Central and South Western Nigeria as well as Southern and Central Benin Republic. Yorubas and Fulanis are the largest ethnic groups in Africa. It is hard to tell which is larger. They were mainly sold to the North America. And they were the mostly recognized African cultures in America. Yorubas are found not loose their culture wherever they go. They are dominant culture and Pantheon Yoruba ideology became a religion worshiped. They create shrines and worship centers in Jamaica, Cuba, Haiti, Dominican republic, st Louis, Brazil Trinidad and Tobago. Yoruba is fast becoming a religion even among non-Yorubas in America. They were the face of African slavery. The Yoruba along Benin/Edo culture has been dated by Archaeology as the oldest civilization in Africa, dated as far back as 11bc Nimrod era.

1st Position: Mbundu People

They are the main tribe in Angola today. There are multiple stories surrounding their origin. But the most popular of all is that of a rumor of people originating from multiple Chieftains across Africa. In short, they are hybrids of different tribes across Africa. They were mostly taken to Brazil. They were the most popular and lucrative slave market for the Portuguese. Majority of Mbundu warlords were ship builders and architects. They built large ships used for transporting their own people to Brazil. That is why they are the largest black ethnic group in Brazil till date. Portuguese had it easy with them because it was cheaper transporting Mbundu slaves. Mbundu Chiefs built giant ships which really helped the Portuguese slaves Merchants.

FG Rejects Governors’ N22,500 Minimum Wage Proposal

The Federal Government has made it known it was not in support of the N22,500 minimum wage proposed by the Nigeria Governors Forum.

The Minister of Labour and Productivity, Chris Ngige, made the stance of the Federal Government known on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily.

He said, “The governors have not even done enough. I told them that this N22,500 was even rejected by the Federal Government,” he said.

The NGF had stated that they were capable of paying Nigerian workers N22,500 as the new minimum wage as against the current N18,000.

This is lower than the N30,000 proposed by labor.

Ngige added, “The national minimum wage is a national legislation being driven by the Federal Government of Nigeria in pursuance to item 34 of the Exclusive Legislative list.”

FG Speaks On Fake Prophecies, What Prophets Should Be Doing For Nigeria

The Nigerian Government has commented on the proliferation of questionable prophecies being bandied around by clerics.

The Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Boss Mustapha on Tuesday condemned negative prophecies by some prophets in the country.

Mustapha, speaking in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Abuja, said Nigeria needs genuine prophets to stand on its behalf and guide the nation on the path of righteousness.

According to him, the primary responsibility of a prophet is to give guidance, direction and correction to the nation and the church, not create fear in citizens.

According to the SGF, “A true prophet of God will be committed to speaking God’s truth. He or she will never contradict God’s revealed Word.

“We are living in a time in Nigeria where we need God’s power, when God’s purposes must be accomplished through “shaking” and protective prophecies.

Mustapha stated that some of them also addressed their words to foreign nations and they demonstrated the ministry of a Prophet to Nations.

He urged prophets in the country to come together and proffer direction and correction from God that would bring lasting solution to challenges facing the country.
This, he said, was better than predicting death to the citizens.

Nigeria Highest Producer Of HIV Infected Children - FG

The Federal Government has confirmed a report which ranks Nigeria first on the list of countries with high record of mother-to-child transmission of HIV/AIDS in the world.

Government reiterated local and international indications confirmed that Nigeria produces 30 percent of children born with HIV/AIDS globally.

Minister of Health, Prof. Isaac Adewole, told newsmen at the launch of a road map on implementation of the National Treatment and Prevention of Mother-to-Child Transmission (PMTCT) of HIV/AIDS in Abuja, yesterday, that the situation is worrisome and requires collective action of all stakeholders, with the support of global partners to correct the statistics.

Prof. Adewole said the road map has been designed to give proper guidance and direction on how best to offer treatment to HIV patients in Nigeria and also, protect unborn children from contacting the virus through a mother living with the virus.

The minister also confirmed that Nigeria has 3.1 million people living with the virus, out of which 1.1 million people have been under proper and timely treatment from government.

He said he was impressed with the commitment of the National Agency for the Control of AIDS (NACA) to the cause of proper and timely care for patients with the virus.

“There is no reason why Nigeria should be the highest producer of babies infected with HIV because, we have put in great efforts in the past. Obviously, more is required to achieve more results,” he added.

The minister expressed hope that the reinvigorated fight against the virus would result in significant drop in spread and good attention given to people living with the virus.

Neymar: "Lionel Messi Is My Idol, Cristiano Ronaldo A Monster"

Paris Saint-Germain forward Neymar has revealed how Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi have had impacts on his career.

Neymar played with Messi at Barcelona before leaving for PSG in a £200m deal. 

Recent reports had claimed Neymar was keen to return to Camp Nou but Barcelona ruled out a move for the Brazilian. 

And Neymar has now revealed the impact Messi has had on his career, describing him as ‘one of the best players of all time.’

"Facing Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo – and I played with Messi, who is, for me, one of the greatest footballers of all time, and he is my idol in football," Neymar told The Players’ Tribune. 

"With Messi, I learned every day, whether during our practice, or playing with him, or just watching him play.

“And that made me stronger and it increased my capacity on the field because I kept learning a lot from him.”

Neymar also spoke on the danger of facing Cristiano Ronaldo.

The 33-year-old who left Real Madrid in the summer, has enjoyed a great start to life in the Serie A with Juventus.

And Neymar has admitted he is a formidable opponent.

"As for Cristiano Ronaldo, he is a monster,” he added.

“Facing him is a pleasure and an honor, but we have to be more prepared.

“He is one of the greatest in football so you get smarter, you get alert, but at the same time you learn a lot, too.

"So, they are two of the big guys that I can relate to, because I want to learn, I want more, I want to win, I want more trophies, score more goals, so I keep learning from them every day."
