If fortune can be harvested as gold and silver grapes and blessings flourish like leaves and silver fleurs-de-lys, the life-path and home of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu would glitter like a barn full of treasure and a life well spent. Tinubu is that powerful!
However, the idyllic city of Milan, Italy, will once again open its bowels to the crème of Nigerian society in few days, 9th and 10th August.Milan will creak at the eaves for Nigerian politicians. Seyi Tinubu, the son of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, two-time governor of Lagos State and All Progressives Congress (APC) leader, is getting married to Layal Holm, his Lebanese lover of months. Expectedly, Tinubu is leaving no stone unturned to give his son a wondrous wedding. Until their union, they were like jagged pieces of two glass hearts yearning for their missing parts. Then they found each other and fit perfectly in place. The first molded with the second and in the heat of the moment, held from head to toe. A perfect masterpiece, a love so high it despises going low.
Predictably, many people are eager to be part of the memorable celebration. Not a few people have been jostling to lay their hands on a copy of the invite, but unfortunately, it would be easier to embark on a round-trip through the Bermuda triangle than to get the invitation card. That is how scarce and exclusive the party would be.
Seyi is a Law graduate. He acquired his LLB degree from the prestigious University of Buckingham, United Kingdom. He acquired his Masters in Corporate & Commercial Law at the same university where he came out on merit. Layal on the other hand, is of Lebanese and Nigerian descent. She is said to be a brilliant consultant at foremost auditing firm, Price Waterhouse Cooper (PWC).

Bayezid Hossain is only 4 years-old, but looks like a very old man.
The boy from Bangladesh ages eight times the normal rate because of an extremely rare condition called progeria.
Bayezid has a swollen face, hollow eyes, sagging skin, ageing joints, difficulties passing urine, and weak and broken teeth due to rare genetic disorder.
The boy is oftentimes avoided by people in his community. Even kids are scared to play with him.
“Bayezid only learned to walk at 3, but he had a full set of teeth at 3 months old,” his mum Tripti Khatun said.
“His physical growth is completely abnormal but mentally, he has wonderful conversation, very aware and is very intuitive for his age.
“He does not look like other children. He looks like an old man. As a first time mother, I can’t bear the pain of seeing my child like this.” She added.
The average life expectancy of a person with progeria is said to be 13 years due to a high risk of fatal heart attacks and strokes.
Bayezid’s dad Lovelu said the couple have spent over $5,000 since he was born seeing different doctors and healers. None have been able to treat the condition.
“Yet his situation remains the same, and he’s probably getting even worse day by day,” he said.
“My son isn’t a normal baby, and it’s tragic for any parent to know that his child will not survive for long.” He added.
Football legend Pele took to his Twitter accounton Saturdayto announce he will be visiting Nigeria this August, saying it's been nearly 50 years since he last visited the country .
