Entertainment column: Twitter react on Squareville(P Square) crack up

Twitter has been a bee hive since rumours of a rift between duo Peter and Jude Okoye emerged.

Fans and haters alike took to the popular social media to express various opinions, say prayers, dish out steaming advices and also lay blames at their suspects' feet.

While most fans prayed for a solution to the rift other than a break-up, a number of people did not 'give a damn', preferring to diss the twin entertainers instead.

Ovation Magazine owner and politician ‏@DeleMomodu preferred to seek an end to the crisis rather than lay blames.

"We should not judge on the basis of who's wrong and who's right; the illustrious Psquare family made Africa very proud!" he said.

Some fans were obviously yet to come to terms with a possible end to the Psquare group.

"This Psquare rumour better be fake. That's d best thing that happened to African music," ‏@iamslimbrown said.

For folks like ‏@doktafelz, a break up of the P-Square brothers was nothing for concern.

He said, "Pray against Psquare split? D'banj and jazzy sef we no pray so who tha hell Dem be?"

 Temisan Okomi ‏@temiokomi also thought there was no big deal in it.

"The Jacksons were a bigger group. They broke up too. So...bleh," he wrote.

Others like ‏@willadebo urged caution because. To them, both brothers need each other to succeed.

"Lol! Actually, PSquare can't afford to split. Their music was never that awesome anyways. Wait! Who's gon listen to PeterO music?" ‏@willadebo posted.

Same view was held by ‏@Joefranky1 who tweeted his admonition, "Psquare, you both serve as your destiny helper,stay together. God has made you channel of greatness, Never work alone."

The woman connection appeared and many fans blamed Peter Okoye's better half Lola Omotayo.

@Echecrates alleged this in his tweet which read, "Funny enough when I hosted Psquare for a concert and somebody asked em why they aren't married they said women complicate matters."

"Please which wife is causing this Psquare break up? She has to go..." @ZinnieD also wrote.

Meanwhile, other fans were only concerned about the next P-Square song.

A fan ‏@its_ZIBI tweeted, "Dear Psquare when will our new songs come out?"

So people, what's your take?

However, P-Square’s publicist, Bayo Adetu has vehemently denied the development and termed it untrue. ‘The report is not true and I can’t waste my time on inappropriate news’.

 

RexNews also made efforts to reach P-Sqaure but it proved abortive.



While the entire industry prays and hopes that this should pass as one of those many speculations, RexNews believes that time will uravel the mystery.

Sports column:What will the little boy in him say if ....||will he do a van persie

Abou Diaby after spending almost 13 months on sideline returns to action for the first time when he got 45 minutes on the pitch. 

Abou Diaby made his long-awaited return from injury for Arsenal's Under-21 side on Tuesday night.
The 27-year-old midfielder has been out of action since suffering a serious knee problem in the win over Swansea in March 2013.
It was the latest in a long line of injuries since arriving in north London for Diaby, considerably blighting his career for club and country.

• ·         From the Getty image above you can see the scares on his knee

 
But he was finally back on the pitch at the Emirates on Tuesday, as the Gunners' Under-21s lost 2-1 to Chelsea.Abou Diaby divides opinion like nobody else at Arsenal where as before I have been hopeful that this injury would be his last and he'd finally 'do a van Persie'.

Despite his injury nightmare, the French international recently insisted he had never thought about retiring.
He said: "I never had such a long break. I never had a knee injury and it is really weird. You can feel physically there is something different. But I learnt a lot from my injuries. I can keep things in perspective.
"I work hard without asking questions. I work hard because I know in the end I will play again.
"I am still a high level footballer in my mind, otherwise I would have given up. But I never think to give it up."

He has been speaking with courage and confidence we hope he replicate that on the pitch and stay  away from the treatment table and give back Wenger  and Arsenal so much faith the have shown him, especially the manager who has received a lot of sticks from the fans. This is were we ask again will he finally 'do a van persie' what will the little boy in him tell him, will he move on to where he can win trophies? wont Arsenal become a mediocre club? willl his wife tell him she misses Paris? will he disagree with the direction the club is moving or he will join the brigade of nasiri and adebayor for higher pay cheque.

The emirate faithfuls deep down will like him to live to his full potential but the frustration at Arsenal football club is so unbearable that the cant continue living on such hope when the are the pogba's, bender's and so on that are buy able to help keep AFC as contenders. 

Do players take advantage of Arsenal policy, class and the way the handle situation concerning their players and other club issues? Van persie is a typical example, when he should have stayed injury free to win us matches he spent it entirely in the physio-room & wants to win trophy from there. He was one of the reasons we didn’t buy strikers but each season he kept his most preferred position (treatment table) after lighting us up at the beginning of each season. Everybody must take a fair share of the blame not just the management & the manager. After all the years the fans endured with his injury & supported him, he gave them back a season and left at the time we needed him most when the team was being given a new shape with  additions of good players and most annoying was his last comments before leaving us and psychologically his comments affected other players. Well fare well to van pursie at least we are in a better position today than when he was here. Am bringing Van persie into this because of the situation we find diaby today, if  he can’t give us two good season his contract should not be renewed  rather let couqelin come back and fight for a place in the team. He can become the viera and makalele else were instead of bringing us another heart ache when we would have placed our trust on him ‘if’ he starts doing well.

Have your say at the comment section. Will Diaby do a van persie?
