Michael Jordan Been Surpassed By LeBron James as NBA Playoffs Leading Scorer

Cleveland Cavaliers star, LeBron James, has moved past Hall of Famer Michael Jordan as the leading scorer in NBA playoff history after helping his team to comfortably beat the Celtics 135-102 to clinch the best-of-seven series 4-1 on Thursday, and set up a third successive championship series against the Golden State Warriors.

James who needed 28 points to surpass Jordan (5,987 points) achieved the milestone which had stood for 19 years, in the third quarter with a three-point jump shot, which put the Cavaliers up by 32 points setting his new mark at of 5.995 points in 212 play-off games, while six-time NBA champion Jordan set his record in 179 games.

On smashing the record, the 32-year-old celebrated by raising his right index finger to signal number one, but quickly retreated to the backcourt to defend as the game continued.

Speaking to reporters after the game, the 32-year-old said: "I think, first of all, I wear the number (23) because of Mike," he told reporters after finishing the game with 35 points to take his total to 5,995 points.

"I think I fell in love with the game because of Mike, but when you're growing up and seeing Michael Jordan, it's almost like a god, so I never did believe I could be Mike."

"The biggest thing for me sitting here after breaking the all-time scoring record in playoff history, is I did it just being me.

"I don't have to score to make an impact on a game and that was my mindset when I started playing, if I'm not scoring how can I still make an impact on the game?

"It's carried me to this point now and it's going to carry me for the rest of my career because scoring is not number one on my agenda."

LeBron James who is no doubt one of best Basketballer in the World has won three NBA championships, four NBA Most Valuable Player Awards, three NBA Finals MVP Awards, two Olympic gold medals, an NBA scoring title among many others.

Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello Been Accused By INEC Over Double Registration

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has accused Kogi state governor Yahaya Bello of double registration for Permanent Voter Card, as against the electoral law.

A statement by INEC’s National Commissioner and Chairman, Information and Voter Education Committee (IVEC), Prince Solomon Soyebi, said Bello’s second registration was done on Tuesday at the Government House in Lokoja, outside the designated centre for ongoing nationwide Continuous Voter Registration (CVR).

The statement reads; “It has come to the attention of INEC that Kogi State Governor Yahaya Bello registered as a voter for the second time on Tuesday May 23, at Government House in Lokoja.

“His first registration was on January 30, 2011, in Wuse Zone 4, Abuja. The governor’s double registration, and doing so outside lNEC’s designated centres, are both illegal.

"For the Continuous Voter Registration (CVR), INEC has designated a centre in each of the country’s 774 local governments areas, including FCT’s six Area Councils.”

“We wish to clarify that no INEC worker was authorised to re-register Bello or any citizen, or to do so outside our designated registration centres. The commission, therefore, dissociates itself from the governor’s action, and promises to take disciplinary action against the staff who conducted Bello’s second registration.

“As for the governor, Section 308 (l) (a) of the 1999 Constitution (as amended), precludes lNEC from prosecuting him while in office. However, the commission has cancelled his second and illegal registration forthwith".

INEC said Gov. Yahaya Bello’s second registration will be cancelled as the Electoral Law make no exception for anyone to register more than once, and to do so outside designated centres.

Foluke Daramola's Husband Says He's Not Using Late Actress Moji Olaiya's Death To Seek Popularity

Foluke Daramola's husband, Kayode Salako has once again spoken to clear the air on his earlier comment on the death and burial committee set up for late Nollywood actress.

According to him, his comment was not meant to to seek publicity for himself, rather he was advocating for the right purpose to be achieved. Below is his post..

"What other popularity would I have been looking for in all of this? I have been talking on national television stations in the past 15 years; my wife is an A' list Nollywood celebrity of about 25 years stardom. I have featured in more than 300 news and celebrity journals as a prominent public affairs analyst; activist and social commentator. And I have taught more than 20,000 students as a seasoned educationist of more than 26 years since 1989. So, what is that popularity I am still looking for around anybody's death that even that of my own wife cannot pull for me? This is not about looking for popularity, but about advocating for the right purpose to be achieved..."

Manchester City Send Classy Tribute To Europa League Winners Manchester United

Following a difficult couple of days, there was a show of support from the blue half of the city after the red half’s victory in Stockholm

Manchester City sent a message of solidarity to Manchester United following their rivals’ triumph in the Europa League final.

Goals from Paul Pogba and Henrikh Mkhitaryan secured a third trophy of the season for Jose Mourinho after their successes in the Community Shield and EFL Cup and sealed a return to the Champions League.

The build-up to the match was overshadowed by the terror attack at Manchester Arena on Monday, which resulted in the deaths of 22 people, including children.

Manchester held a vigil in Albert Square on Tuesday in honour of the victims and in defiance of the perpetrators, while a minute’s silence was held before the start of Wednesday’s match at Friends Arena in Stockholm.

City and United both posted tributes in the aftermath of the bomb attack and Pep Guardiola’s side put their fierce rivalry aside with another classy post shortly after full-time.


The hashtag #ACityUnited, which has been circulating on social media for much of the last 24 hours, was posted via City’s official Twitter account moments after the final whistle, the text composed of City’s sky blue and the red of their rivals.w
