Background I hail from Ogun State. I was born into a Christian home and I had a strict upbringing. Even though my parents separated, my childhood was fun and I have so many good memories. While my mum has yet to remarry, my dad remarried and I lived with him for some time. Education I attended St. Benedict Nursery & Primary School, Lagos, and Federal Government Girls’ College, Akure. Afterwards, I studied Mass Communication at the Olabisi Onabanjo University, Ago Iwoye. Acting I became interested in acting when I was at the university. As an undergraduate, I used to feature in plays that were staged in school. Professionally, I started acting about 16 years ago. I joined Nollywood and took part in some English movies.

To commemorate such a unique performance, Player in Focus is going to stray from the type. Rather than analyzing La Pulga ‘s performance in the abstract, attention is going to be diverted on chronologically seeing the games through the Argentine’s lens over the course of 94 minutes of football. Strap in your seatbelts, we’re going for a ride.

The Federal Government has slashed the collateral requirement introduced by the Central Bank of Nigeria for banks to access the N220bn intervention fund for the Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises sector from 75 per cent to 50 per cent. The decision was taken at the second meeting of the National Council on MSMEs presided over by Vice President Namadi Sambo at the Presidential Villa, Abuja on Tuesday. Before the downward review, part of the conditions for banks to access the N220bn fund was the need for them to collaterise whatever amount they were applying for from the CBN to the tune of 75 per cent. The Minister of Industry, Trade and Investment, Mr. Olusegun Aganga, announced the decision at a press briefing held at the end of the meeting. He said the decision was taken based on the recommendations of a sub-committee chaired by the Minister of National Planning, Dr. Suleiman Abubakar, and contribution made by the Governor, Central Bank of Nigeria, Mr. G
