Awkward: Luxembourg "male" first lady posed with other NATO first ladies.


Didn't see anything wrong with this picture until someone wrote this on his Facebook wall.

Xavier Bettel, the Prime Minister of Luxembourg, a small European nation, attended the just concluded European Union (EU) meeting in Brussels with his "beautiful and proud man-wife" who in turn proudly took a group picture with his fellow European First Ladies, including the wives of the United States President, Melanie Trump, and Turkish President, Mrs Erdogan.
Bettel who became the first European leader to officially have a male "wife" did not find it awkward to throw is partner into the crowd of first ladies. With this remarkable bold step, soon, other leaders will follow in the Bettels' footsteps with more first guys instead of ladies.

ODD: See what fans, police and players did during a football match in Uganda..



Ugandan Premier League match between Onduparaka FC @OnduFC and Saints FC @TeamSaintsFC at the Betway Green Light Stadium, Arua, on May 16 descended into chaos when series of controversial moments in the game sparked off violence...

Africa is still miles away from organizing decent domestic and continental football competitions!!

It beats my imagination how CAF and domestic football league managers continue to condone intimidation by unruly fans and other harsh treatments to visiting teams. It's killing the spirit of sportsmanship and entertainment flavour in the game.

This win at all costs, by fire by force must be jettisoned in favour of 'let the better side win' so that we could see better performances from both home and away teams.

Shocking: 17- year old girl killed in a shark attack in Australia.





The family of a teenage girl in Western Australian killed by a shark while she was surfing on an Easter family holiday have said she "died doing something she loved".

The girl Laeticia Brouwer, 17, had suffered critical injuries when she was pulled to shore by her father about 16:00 hours, police said. She later died in hospital.

The teenager's mother and two siblings were also at the scene, a popular surfing spot near Esperance.

We are terribly heartbroken and saddened by this tragic accident," Steve Evans said, reading a statement on behalf of Laeticia Brouwer's family.

Laeticia and her father were surfing at the popular break known as Kelp Beds in Wylie Bay when she was mauled on her left leg.

Her father heard her scream and went to her aid along with another teenager.

She was pulled into the beach unconscious and suffering severe blood loss.

An off-duty nurse performed CPR until paramedics arrived and took her to hospital, where she was later pronounced dead.

This is the third fatal shark attack in Western Australia within 12 months.

The beach will be closed for at least 48 hours while authorities investigate.

Man dies trying to "swallow" a doughnut the size of cake in a competition.



If you think it's only in Nigeria that people die in some of these eating competitions then you're absolutely wrong. Read this as reported by Metro U.K.

A 42 year old man Travis Malouff,  was pronounced dead after trying to swallow a doughnut – six times the usual size – in 80 seconds.

He died at the Tex-Ass Doughnut Challenge in Denver, Colorado.

Witness Julia Edelstein on Tuesday described the doughnut as the ‘size of a small cake.’

Winners get the doughnut for free and a button saying they won the challenge.

Part of the doughnut was still in Malouff’s hand when he turned away from the counter, his face blue, and collapsed.

Two customers broke his fall and desperately tried to help him until paramedics arrived.

Malouff died at the scene, according to the coroner and police.

ODD:Kenyan millionaire marry two friends the same weekend in a lavish wedding.

If you think its only in Nigeria that two women married the same man on the same day, then think again. Recently a Kenyan millionaire did the same thing with a little bit of a twist in a lavish wedding that spare no expenses, but in his own case instead of marrying them on the same day he did it a day apart.

According to Facebook user Maybelle Boma who posted this on her wall, she wrote "oh oh !! Kenyan millionaire Javan Bidogo wed's two friends same weekend"

Continuing she said, Mr Javan Bidogo is a man who doesn't believe in loosing anything no matter how small. And with that mentality he finds these two beautiful friends attractive and is not ready to let go any one of them.

Mr Javan decided to spice it up a little by getting married to these friends same weekend. He got married to the first Elvas on Saturday the 25th of March, and the second Asha on the 26th of March. Both at different expensive location's and strictly by invitation.

Asha Juma wed Javan at the Serena Hotel In Dar es Salaam while Elvas Kulengwa said her vows at the Golden Jubilee Tower in Dar es Salaam. Asha's colour code was maroon, gold and blue while Elvas's was maroon, gold and white.

Things we hear. Amazing.
