| THE COUPLE |
 |
| BABY MAMA-ABIGAIL |
Nigeria's former weapon of mass destruction & goleador extraordinary, Obafemi Martins, who plies his trade for the Seattle Sounders FC is now the proud father of a bouncing baby boy, courtesy of his beau, Abigail Barwuah the older sibling of Milan's forward and Italian football star Mario Balotelli.
The new addition came on Wednesday, October 16, 2013, whilst this is the 1st baby between the couple, this would be Obafemi's 3rd child. The 2 older ones are from 2 other different ladies. It just shows that as prolific as the Obafemi is in front of goal, so also he is when it comes to scoring the other type of goal.
Congratulations anyways.
There is no doubt about the fact that ace Italian football gem- Mario Balotelli of Manchester City FC loves attention. We even believe he craves it, his surly mood on and off the field says it all. But no matter how anyone sees it, the fact remains that, he is a fantastic talent, and we are even of the thought that trying to change or cool down might affect his talent for the worst.
The football star was named one of the most stylish stars around not too long ago, like it has become normal to him, he loves to stand out. Check out his £160,000 Bentley Continental GT, a common car amongst the rich SO YOU THINK, but his own comes in camouflage of course, another statement in class don't you all think. If you have it flaunt it abeg!!!!!!!!!!
At only 22 years old, Mario's got the world at his feet.
Does he need any intro? We think not. Just check out Mario Balotelli, the Black-Italian football star known for his Mohawk haircut wearing this hilarious hooded top.
We can bet you are all wondering what we are on about? Who is GQ? It's none other than the award winning, monthly men's style bible-Gentlemen's Quarterly. The fantastic magazine where the incredibly talented-Dylan Jones reigns as the supremo in their March 2012 edition, that has the incredibly gorgeous and fantastic British actress-Keira Knightley on its cover, published its annual "BEST DRESSED MEN'S LIST" a few weeks ago.
What's so fantastic about that, some would say, it's an expected annual ritual the Magazine with a worldwide follower-ship publishes every year. Yes we agree, it's nothing new, it's always expected. What we are on about, are some of the names that has appeared rather prominently on the list. YES! Prominently, they are not just filling the numbers, but in fantastic positions.
