Juventus striker Cristiano Ronaldo has opened up on his retirement plans, expressing a desire to challenge himself by starting a new career in acting.
Ronaldo is widely revered as one of the finest footballers in history, having earned five Ballon d’Or awards for his individual brilliance during spells at Manchester United and Real Madrid.
The 34-year-old has won a whole host of major trophies, including five European Cups and six league titles, while also landing a European Championships winners’ medal with Portugal.
Ronaldo holds the all-time scoring record for his country and for Madrid, and continues to set new standards of excellence even as he approaches the latter stages of his career.
The former United superstar is now on the books at Juventus, and is currently enjoying another prolific season with 10 goals to his name from 14 Serie A outings.
However, Ronaldo’s playing days will draw to a close at some point in the near future, which he acknowledged at a Dubai Sports conference on Saturday.
The Juve talisman says he will walk away from the game “the moment my body is no longer responding in the right way”, with one eye on a possible foray into the film industry.
“Several years ago, the age of playing football was until 30-32, but now, you find those who are 40 years old playing on the field,” Ronaldo began.
“The moment my body is no longer responding in the right way on the field, then it would be the time to leave. My success in my field is the result of hard work, and a way of living. I work continuously to improve my mental and physical abilities. I aspire to continue my studies after retiring from football.
“I hope I live more than 50 years to learn new things and face different challenges and try to find solutions for them. One of the things that I seek to challenge myself in, for example, is acting in a movie.

Former Military President, General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida, rtd, has
announced that he is in search of a new wife.
Describing the kind of woman that will suit him at this stage of his life, IBB
said he will not take a wife much younger than him because that will be a
problem for the woman and for himself (IBB)
Speaking with The Sun, the former Head of State, however, expressed the fear
that the new wife may not be able to live the way he lived with his late wife
and former First Lady, Maryam.
Asaba Delta-born Maryam died on Sunday, December 27, 2009, succumbing to
ovarian cancer at the University of California’s Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer
Center, Los Angeles. She died at the age of 61.
IBB said, “Yes, I am quite sure. I’m searching and I’m hoping. But the longer I
wait, maybe, the more problematic it becomes.
“If it drags, I would be too old and the whole idea of having a partner would
seem to diminish. But I will make sure [I have a partner] before reaching that
stage.
“If somebody is in the corner, you could organize that in three or six months.
“And because it must be somebody you have known for a long time, or
somebody you have been in contact with for a long time, you don’t just tell
them look this is for marriage.
“But as time passes, and relationship building continues, it could end up in
marriage.
“However, I have to be fair in my search. I really want to be fair. For instance,
you don’t expect me to take a wife much younger than I am because that will
be a problem for her and for me.
“I have to be fair. Secondly, I do wonder if she (the chosen one) would be able
to live the way Maryam and I did, which is not easy these days. So, I keep on
praying; and I think it will happen.”

The picture which was obtained by Vanguard on Thursday, has the image of the former Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Mr. Timi Frank, looking after Deji.
Recall that Deji was attacked on Monday by allegedly 150-strong youths shouting that were chanting “sai Baba”.

A popular Catholic Priest, Reverend Father Chinenye Oluoma has said that Christmas is celebrated by Christians as a mystery of the birth of Jesus Christ.
Father Oluoma while replying the General Overseer of the Mountain of Fire Ministry (MFM), Dr Daniel Olukoya, noted that there were many practices in Christianity which were not recorded in the Bible.
Recall that Dr Olukoya had said the reason his Ministry does not celebrate Christmas was because it was not recorded in the Bible, and Christ did not command his disciples to celebrate it.
In a Facebook post titled ‘Where is it in the Bible’, Father Oluoma argued that Christian’s celebrate Children’s Day, birthdays, mother’s day and attendance vigils, which were not recorded in the bible.
He reminded the MFM GO that his Church has a football club it manages, but nowhere in the bible was football mentioned.
The statement reads thus: Where Is It In The Bible?
I wanted to pretend I didn’t read about the G. O who said ‘Christmas’ is not in the Bible and so shouldn’t be celebrated. It’s the same funny mentality of those who confuse terminology with theology.
Easter as a term is not in the Bible but we celebrate easter because it’s an event and a mystery recorded in scripture. Same with Christmas, it’s not the term or calendar date we celebrate but the event and mystery. One day now someone will wake up tipsy on ‘anointing’ and tell me to tell him why I call myself a Catholic since that term doesn’t exist in the Bible.
Same folly can be extended to all churches because no church has a name that’s used as a group of church members in the Bible. A Pentecostal church that says it doesn’t celebrate Christmas because the term doesn’t exist in the Bible but calls itself a Pentecostal church is just a comic contradiction.
Pentecost means 50th day, it was an agricultural feast that had nothing to do with the Holy Spirit until that particular year that the Holy Spirit fell on the apostles in Acts 2. Even after that, there is no record in scripture that the Holy Spirit fell on other people on Pentecost day.
If I wanted to be ‘an anointed idiot’ I would have been going around condemning Christians who identify as Pentecostals, quizzing them to show me where it’s in the Bible that a group of believers were referred to as Pentecostals or to prove to me where any group of Christians celebrated Pentecost in the Bible. Yet common sense dictates that it’s neither terminology nor semantics we identify as Pentecostal but the reality and mystery of the Holy Spirit.
Whoever adjectivised sense with common hasn’t experienced this generation of Where Is It In The Bible intoxicated Christians, common sense is very rare. The Bible is not a dictionary or history book, it’s more of theology than terminology. When you want to use the Bible to validate or invalidate any religious practice, you look for the biblical theology about it, not the terminology.
Mothers day, fathers day, Children’s day, etc are not in the Bible, but the Bible doesn’t have anything against their celebration. It’s only a religious ignoramus that will condemn those celebrations and get pious zombies to follow suit. If you care to know, there are many things we do in life that are not in the Bible and God isn’t angry at all.
Traditional marriage, village meetings, cross over vigils(these ‘show me where it’s in the Bible’ folks who are addicted to 31st Dec Cross over vigil don’t even know it’s not in the Bible in their sense), birthday parties, wedding anniversaries etc are not in the Bible.
Finally, someone needs to tell Dr Olukoya that MFM has a football club, I’ve been searching for it in the Bible and couldn’t find, abi no be MFM get that football club? Some nonsense must stop this 2019 o, let me come and be going.
Former aviation Minister, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode has unmasked those behind the release of former National Security Adviser to the former President, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, Colonel Sambo Dasuki and the convener of #RevolutionNow Protest, Omoyele Sowore.
The duo were released on the 24 December, 2019, following the order of the Minister of Justice and Attorney-General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami.
Some Nigerians thought Sowore and Dasuki were released because of the magnanimous intervention of International Advocacy groups like Amnesty International, Legal Teams, CSOs, Media and plethora of voices across the globe.
The truth is that they contributed but were not given statutory credit. According to Femi, four major persons fought from within to secure Sowore and Dasuki’s release.
And they include: Abba Kyari , the Chief of Staff to the President, Abubakar Malami, Minister of Justice and Attorney-General of the Federation, Hadi Sirika, Minister of Avaition, and Kayode Fayemi, Ekiti state governor.
Recall that a Federal High Court had in two different occasions instructed the Department of the State Service, DSS, to release Sowore, but the service refused, saying that Sowore is a threat to the country’s security.
Also, Nigerians via the instrument of social and traditional media had spoken against the unconstitutional detention of Dasuki and Sowore and had demanded for their release.
Yet DSS refused, reeling out quantifiable reasons for their actions.
Why were they detained?
Dasuki
Nigeria’s former national security adviser, Sambo Dasuki, was arrested for allegedly stealing $2bn which is equivalent of £1.3bn.
Mr Dasuki is accused of awarding phantom contracts to buy 12 helicopters, four fighter jets and ammunition, during Jonathan’s administration. The equipment was meant for the fight against Boko Haram and other insecurity issues in the country. Dasuki had since 2015 denied the allegation.
Sowore
The Publisher of SaharaReporters, and convener of #RevolutionNow protest, Omoyele Sowore was arrested for allegedly threatening public safety, peaceful co-existence and social harmony in the country”, DSS said in one of its statement.
The security agency said that is it saddled with the responsibility of managing, curtailing and eliminating threats against national security.
“These threats include threats of sabotage, threats of subversion, threat of terrorism and, of course, ethnic agitations, separatist agitations, economic sabotage and others.
“If we are operating as a responsible security organisation and someone is calling for revolution in Nigeria, we must understand the meaning of revolution.
“Primarily, it means a revolt, it means insurrection, it means insurgency, it means forceful takeover of government and we are operating democratic system in Nigeria.
“Nigeria is not a banana republic and cannot suddenly be made one. So, the DSS will not just sit by and watch individuals or groups wanting to rise and threaten the peace and unity of the country”, its statement read.
However, after DSS released Sowore and Dasuki, Fani-kayode unmasked those behind the operation.
His words as contained in his twitter handle, “I can tell you authoritatively that 4 people fought from within to get Dasuki & Sowore released & eventually managed to convince Buhari. They are Abba Kyari, Malami, Hadi Sirika and Kayode Fayemi. They represent the liberal and cerebal wing of the Buhari Govt. & I commend them.”
