Introduction:

“There is that great proverb — that until the lions have their own historians, the history of the hunt will always glorify the hunter. That did not come to me until much later. Once I realized that, I had to be a writer. I had to be that historian. It’s not one man’s job. It’s not one person’s job. But it is something we have to do, so that the story of the hunt will also reflect the agony, the travail — the bravery, even, of the lions.” – Chinua Achebe

Apple’s Iphone 8 or iPhone x: which should you buy, which one is the best.The iPhone 8 and the iPhone X may appeal more than the larger iPhone 8 Plus for a number of reasons. Maybe you have small hands, or perhaps you would prefer a lighter phone that slipped neatly into your pocket, in that case these two iPhone models are smaller and lighter than the iPhone Plus models. Although the differences are quite fascinating between the newly launched iphones yet we’ll look at the two phones that are most appropriate if you are not keen on the idea of a large handset. The iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 plus are now on sale but you will have to wait longer for the iPhone x which is by a margin the most interesting of Apple’s new iphones. But the iPhone x is also over 40 percent more expensive than the iphone 8, so is it worth the substantial extra outlay.
You may be excited by the new features of the iPhone X but wondering whether you really need to pay around $1,000, or if the iPhone 8 will give you the features you want the most. There’s one place to start when comparing the iPhone X and iPhone 8: their displays…
iPhone X - 5.8-inch Super Retina HD display [18.5:9 True Tone OLED, 2436 x 1125 pixels (458 ppi), 82.9% screen-to-body ratio].

Actor Mofe Damijo and Ego Boyo, the President of International Women's Society, are set to grace our screens again over two decades after the popular TV series, CheckMate and film, Violated. The legendary actor made the revelation in an Instagram post today.

"My journey with Ego Boyo started nearly 30 years ago, our first encounter being on the production of CHECKMATE when my dear friend Amaka Igwe pulled me in as the villain Segun Kadiri on the highly coveted TV series. One of the most remarkable things about Ego is that despite the fact that she is born with a silver spoon into the family of the highly respected late Justice Nnamani she was super disciplined (she still is), very humble and extremely committed. Our status as Nigerian TV sweethearts rose with the movie VIOLATED as 'Tega' and 'Peggy' became the toast of Violated fans. Since then Ego has gone ahead to becoming wife, mother, accomplished business woman and the president of International Women's Society.
