 Africa and Russia are natural allies - Putin Russian President Vladimir Putin courted dozens of African leaders at a Russia-Africa summit that wraps up Thursday as he seeks to bolster Moscow’s clout across the continent. Speaking during a meeting in the Kremlin on the second day of the summit, Putin said that “Russia and Africa are united by truly strong bonds of friendship and close partnership.” “We are natural allies in building a multipolar, genuinely democratic world order, free from diktat and double standards and based on respect for the norms of international law and the fundamental principles of the United Nations Charter,” Putin said, AP reported.

 ‘People think I’m in Illuminati’ – Singer, Tyla


Grammy-winning South African singer, Tyla, has stated that because of her meteoric rise in the music industry, some people are beginning to think she is a member of the Illuminati.

She said the belief that being a member of the Illuminati is the only way to attain superstardom in the global music industry is flawed.

The ‘Water’ crooner noted that “God is the center of everything” that she has achieved so far.

Tyla covered the latest issue of the Cosmopolitan Magazine.

I know people like finding a definition for things, but it’s ‘and,’ not ‘or’.”
