Nicki Minaj’s brother jailed 25 Years for child rape

Posted: 29 Jan 2020 10:30 PM PST

American rapper, Nicki Minaj brother, Jelani Maraj has been sentenced to a 25 years prison sentence for child rape.

Jelani was sentenced in a New York court today by Judge Robert McDonald, years after the guilty verdict was reached, reports TMZ.

Maraj was found guilty of predatory sexual assault against a child and endangering the welfare of a child in a trial that lasted less than three weeks.

Back in 2017, the rapper, whose real name is Onika Maraj-Petty, visited her brother while he was locked up.

Nicki didn't testify during the trial despite claims made by her brother's defence team that she would.

Maraj was actually found guilty in November 2017. Jelani Maraj's attorney David M. Schwartz said,

"We will be appealing this excessive sentence. There was clear juror misconduct amongst other issues."

Jelani Maraj was first charged in the case back in April 2016. He was accused of repeatedly raping his stepdaughter, beginning when she was 11 years old. Schwartz had claimed at various points that the girl's allegations against Maraj were part of her mother's $25 million extortion scheme.

In October 2019, a Nassau County judge denied Maraj and Schwartz's bid to have the verdict overturned.

Late Kobe Bryant reportedly leaves behind assets worth over $2 billion

Posted: 29 Jan 2020 05:30 AM PST

As the world continues to mourn the death of basketball icon Kobe Bryant, it has emerged that the athlete's absence will not only be felt by the sporting fraternity, the business and investments family has also been hit hard by Bryant's demise.

Before the helicopter crash that claimed his life on Sunday, January 26, in Calabasas, California, Bryant had used the vast sporting experience he had accrued from the court to build a business empire valued at over $991 million.

Among great investments he had sunk his money in is Bryant Stibel, a capital firm he co-founded with Web.com owner Jeff Stibel, CNN reported on Monday, January 27.

Bryant Stibel has stakes in technology, media and data companies and its assets are valued at at least $1.9 million.

The basketballer also owned a sports drink known as Body Armor and the Kobe shoe line.
Some of Body Armor assets were in 2018 acquired by Coca Cola thus driving up Bryant's net worth.

In 2016, the sportsman established a media company know as Granity Studios which deals in producing creative sports content and storytelling.

One of the greatest highlights in Bryant's life in the business frontier was a partnership he landed with Nike, a footwear manufacturing company, and Los Angeles Boys and Girls clubs to form the Mamba League.

From 2017, the Mamba League grew rapidly training upcoming athletes through the Mamba Sports Academy.

During the ill-fated flight which also claimed the life of his 13-year-old daughter and six others, Bryant was travelling to one of the Mamba Sports Academies.

The academie' impact has been felt in world economic giants like China, a development that saw Bryant land lucrative endorsement deals from Hangzhou headquartered e-commerce giant Alibaba.

Other companies that had worked with Byrant are McDonald's, Turkish Airlines, Sprite and Nintendo.

Posted: 29 Jan 2020 03:00 AM PST

Toke Makinwa has shared her thoughts on divorce and domestic violence from the standpoint of the Nigerian culture.

The media personality who advocated for people to walk away from their marriages when it's no longer working, insisted that "nobody is worth throwing the rest of your life in jail or even worse a death sentence for".

Toke Makinwa noted that though most people say that divorce is not an option, a sin and not in our tradition, they will however only cry when one "throws his or her life away".

She tweeted;

"I know some conversations are tough but they must be had, nobody is worth throwing the rest of your life in jail or even worse, a death sentence, anger is evil, choose your mental health and walk away always. It's hard, it's tough but one minute of anger can take away everything

They say divorce is not an option and it's a sin, and it's not our tradition but if you die or kill someone cos of anger, the same people that "said"will only cry with you as you throw your life away, try separation first and if things don't get better, choose you

Life is tough, people are angry, there is frustration in the land. The only sanity you can guarantee is yours. If someone is threatening your peace pls separate from them, at least you can both be alive to raise your kids, and maybe one day find a resolve, stop testing yourself"
