Drake Sends Lil Wayne A Heartfelt Birthday Wish

Drizzy took a moment to publicly acknowledge Wayne's impact on his life.

Lil Wayne is one of the most influential and important figures in hip hop. The New Orleans born rapper's career has stretched for over 20 years. Mind you, he's had his fair share of trials and tribulations through it all. However, Wayne is still regarded as one of the best rappers in the game. Today, he celebrates his 35th birthday. While many people in hip hop have been sending him birthday wishes, one of his protege's had a heartfelt message for him.

Drake took to Instagram to share a public birthday wish to Lil Wayne. The picture has Weezy in some OVO gear while the caption read, "Happy Birthday bossssssy! Thank you for the endless tools and the inspiration! I would have been lost at how to maneuver this game without watching you do it first. I remember when they told you that it was impossible to build a skate ramp on your roof...and then I came back and you were skating on your roof. Please never change. Love for life." It's evident that Drake wouldn't be here today if it wasn't for Lil Wayne. Weezy saw the talent in Drake early in his career and helped him launch it to the position it is today. He helped create the Drake we know today.
After Wayne's recent health scare earlier in the month, he bounced back from it pretty quickly. Wayne's manager, Cortez Bryant, said that regardless of what the doctors recommended, Wayne was going to get back into the studio because he's a work-a-holic. Shortly after he was released from the hospital, Damian Lillard and Scott Storch posted separate pictures of themselves in the studio with him. While Damian Lillard's collaboration with Weezy came out last week, there's no indication when the collab with Scott Storch will surface. Aside from those two, Weezy was recently spotted in the studio with up-and-comer Trippie Redd.

Hopefully with all this work in the studio, Tha Carter 5 will finally see the light of day.

CJN Tanko unveils panel to hear Atiku’s appeal against Buhari

The Chief Justice of Nigeria, Ibrahim Tanko Mohammed is presiding over the 7-man panel that will hear the appeals filed by the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) and its presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, challenging the victory of President Muhammadu Buhari at the February 23 poll. Other members of the panel are Bode Rhodes-Vivour, Amiru Sanusi, Uwani Abaji, Ejembi Eko, John Inyang Okoro and Olukayode Ariwoola. Atiku and his party are challenging the September 11 judgment of the Justice Mohammed Garba-led Presidential Election Petitions Tribunal which affirmed President Buhari’s victory at the polls. The appeals hearing has generated some controversies especially due to the silence of the Supreme Court on the justices that would constitute the panel, with the Coalition of United Progressives Party (CUPP) demanding the use of seniority in selecting them. A senior member of Atiku’s legal team, Chief Chris Uche (SAN), told reporters that they considered it strange that as at

NNL: Sanni dumps Saraki Boys

Tunde Sanni, head coach of the Abubakar Bukola Saraki (ABS) FC of Ilorin has resigned, Coordinator of the team, Idris Musa, said on Monday.

The club’s U-15 coach, Taofeeq Babatunde, has been drafted to assist the Assistant Coach, Suleiman Quadri, pending when a substantive manager will be appointed. His resignation may be due to recent results, which were not in favour of the Saraki Boys. The team lost to Kebbi United 3-2 on penalties after 1-1 draw during regulation time in the round of 64 encounter of the Aiteo Cup in Minna. The Saraki Boys also lost 3-0 to Mighty Jets of Jos and drew 0-0 with the Jos-based side in the return leg on Wednesday in Ilorin at Bet9ja Nigeria National League’s (NNL), Match Day 10 encounter.

Chechnya leader makes Mo Salah honorary citizen

Chechnya leader Ramzan Kadyrov has made Egypt’s talismanic striker Mohamed Salah an honorary citizen of the southern Russian region at a farewell banquet held for the eliminated World Cup side. Rights groups and Western governments allege that authorities in Chechnya repress their political opponents, discriminate against women and persecute sexual minorities, all allegations that Chechnya’s leaders deny. Chechnya has been hosting the Egyptian team’s World Cup training camp and Kremlin-backed Kadyrov has seized on opportunities to appear alongside Salah. Sarah’s goalscoring exploits for Liverpool and Egypt have made him an international superstar. “Mohamed Salah is an honorary citizen of the Chechen Republic. “Yes, that’s right! Tonight I signed a decree conferring this high award on the great footballer and member of the Egypt and Liverpool teams,” Kadyrov wrote on Telegram. Salah was presented with a badge and a copy of the decree at the dinner, Kadyrov said. The Egy
