Lilian Esoro writes on success


Lilian Esoro shared highlights from a recent conversation she had which centered on failure and success.

The Nollywood actress noted that there is no formula for success as she advised people to see failure as a blessing in disguise and a lesson to learn and grow from.

Lilian Esoro wrote on Instagram;

I was having a discussion the other day, and somehow we got talking about success and how to sustain and handle certain

 situations. And I said there really isn’t any formula for success! It’s quite simple, really: Double your rate of failure. They go huh? I’m like that’s the problem.... You are thinking of failure as the enemy of success. But it isn’t at all. See failures as a blessing in disguise, a lesson you learn n grow from. It’s your decision at the end of the day. You can be discouraged by failure or you can learn from it, so go ahead and make mistakes.

Make all you can. Because remember it’s in the failures and mistakes you find success.

Ed Sheeran spends £4million buying up his neghbours' houses to stop complaints about noise


Ed Sheeran took a swing to stop his neighbours from filing noise complaints against him, by spending £4million to buy up houses around him.
The singer said to be worth $160million (£128million) reportedly bought not only the flat above his Notting Hill restaurant, but also the two houses next to his £19.8million mansion in London.
‘Ed’s had neighbours grumbling about noise before so when he got a chance to buy up the two houses next to his London home, he jumped at the chance,’ a source told The Sun.

‘Ed has not only made a wise investment but is limiting the chance of people grumbling about loud music or parties.’
It was further gathered that he used the same plan for his restaurant in London. These latest purchases have resulted in a property portfolio worth a reported £47million.
‘He also decided to buy the flat above his restaurant because that could have been a massive sticking point for the business going forward.’

This also follows up report of Ed Sheeran and his wife, Cherry Seaborn, upsetting locals after positioning a bunch of hay bales around their controversial ‘pond’ in Sussex. He was granted permission for the pond based on the promise that it was for wildlife, however, neighbours are convinced that’s not the case. It said locals have now nicknamed the area Sheeran-ville because he owns so much property there.

Married woman commits suicide after her friend whom she stood as guarantor for to obtain a loan goes into hiding


A 41-year-old woman, MrsS Rasheed, has committed suicide inside her home in the Awotan area of Apete community in Ibadan, Oyo State

Rasheed's body was found dangling in her living room at about 1:00 p.m.

According to reports, Rasheed allegedly committed suicide over a loan taken from a micro finance bank popularly known as LAPO. A family source said the deceased stood as a guarantor for her friend who obtained a loan from LAPO office at Awotan area and when the friend was unable to pay the loan, she went into hiding. The bank officials turned to Rasheed to pay the money, giving her an installmental payment arrangement which she must follw or be arrested. The pressure from the bank forced her into depression.

On Friday July 26th, she received a call from the bank officials mandating her to see them in their office later in the day as she had failed to fulfill an instalment payment that was due as at that time.

Confused as to how to get the money, Mrs Rasheed decided that the best way to get out of the dilemma was to take her life. Her body was dicovered dangling from the ceiling in the room by her husband who was kept in the dark about the loan and the pressure from the bank.

Confirming the incident, the state commissioner of police, Shina Olukolu, said the Divisional Police Officer in charge of Apete police station led detectives to the scene of the incident. He added that investigations into the incident has commenced.
