Emiliano Sala Body recovered from plane wreckage

A body has been recovered from the wreckage of the crashed plane which carried footballer Emiliano Sala and pilot David Ibbotson.

The mission to recover the body, which has not yet been identified, began on Tuesday evening, just about three weeks after the plane crashed.

However, the wreckage of the plane has not been recovered and the operation has been brought to a close due to poor weather conditions.

In a statement, the AAIB said:

“Following extensive visual examination of the accident site using the remotely operated vehicle (ROV), it was decided to attempt recovery operations.
“In challenging conditions, the AAIB and its specialist contractors successfully recovered the body previously seen amidst the wreckage. The operation was carried out in as dignified a way as possible and the families were kept informed of progress.”

Michael B. Jordan reveals why he went for therapy after Black Panther

                          

Actor Michael B. Jordan has revealed why he went for therapy immediately after he finished shooting the hit movie Black Panther. According to him, he had to do so many things so as to assume the character Erik Killmonger which he played

Speaking with Oprah Winfrey, Michael B. Jordan said the character he played had a lonely childhood with no friends got all to about his dreams. In order to assume that role, he said he had to shut out his loved ones, a thing that led him to a dark place.

                             

“I spent a lot of time alone. I figured Erik [Killmonger], his childhood growing up was pretty lonely. He didn’t have a lot of people he could talk to about this place called Wakanda that didn’t exist,” he said.

                          

He went on to describe how he later got back to his real self after the movie.

“I went to therapy, I started talking to people, starting unpacking a little bit. [It] helped me out a lot…It was a little tough for me at first. Readjusting to people caring about me, getting that love that I shut out. I shut out love, I didn’t want love. I wanted to be in this lonely place as long as I could.”

He continued:

“Of course it’s an extreme, exaggerated version of the African diaspora from the African-American perspective, so to be able to take that kind of pain and rage and all those emotions that Erik kind of represents from being black and brown here in America … that was something I didn’t take lightly. When it was all over, I think just being in that kind of mind state … it caught up with me.”

Speaking on why he recommends therapy:

“Your mind is so powerful. Your mind will get your body past a threshold that it would have given up on way before. Honestly, therapy, just talking to somebody just helped me out a lot. As a man you get a lot of slack for it…I don’t really subscribe to that. Everyone needs to unpack and talk.“

Some of the men who tortured a slay queen over phone theft by having ground pepper inserted into her vagina, have been arrested

According to reports, the incident happened in Benin, Edo State. It was gathered that the lady had lodged in a hotel with a man who later claimed his phone went missing after their hot romp.

The man then dragged the accused to a native doctor around Ugbiyokho area of Ekehuan Road, Benin, where she was summarily declared guilty by a notorious “oracle.”

Her denial of the allegation prompted the native doctor and his apprentices to subject her to jungle justice by stripping her naked and inserting ground pepper into her vagina

According to Jefferson Uwoghiren, the man was arrested yesterday evening, along with the manager of a hotel he lodged briefly in Benin City, Edo state. A massive manhunt is on native “ doctor” and his apprentices.

Jay-Z hires an attorney to help 21 Savage

Jay-Z has hired an attorney to help 21 Savage, so he does not get deported to the UK, as he also slammed the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

21 Savage is currently detained by the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), after they discovered he is a British citizen living in the US illegally

According to TMZ, Jay-Z said the arrest and detention of the rapper is “an absolute travesty” and points out that his US Visa application has been pending for years. He said;

“In addition to being a successful recording artist, 21 deserves to be reunited with his children immediately.”

It was also confirmed that Jay-Z’s company, Roc Nation has responded to what it calls a “matter of injustice” by hiring attorney Alex Spiro to assist with his case. Spiro told TMZ;

“We are not going to stop until he is released, bonded out or in front of a judge … What we have here is someone who overstayed their Visa with an application pending for 4 years – not a convicted criminal that needs to be detained and removed but, by all accounts a wonderful person, father, and entertainer who has a marijuana offense which was vacated and sealed.”

According to reports, 21 Savage actually had a visa permit pending for four years before he reapplied for his US Visa in 2017, which they claim must have led the authorities to do a background check that discovered his visa was expired before his arrest
