 AAC SEEK FURTHER INVESTIGATION INTO ON SOWORE IN EKITI The African Action Congress, AAC, has called for further investigation into the reported attack on Omoyele Sowore and other party members in Ekiti State, despite the arrest of eleven suspects. In a statement by its national publicity secretary, Rex Elanu, the AAC says new video footage has emerged which it believes could help identify more persons involved in the incident. The party has expressed concern over the handling of CCTV recordings from the restaurant where the incident occurred, and alleges that some stolen phones were traced to the governor's lodge in Ekiti State. It is seeking an independent investigation into these claims, the handling of recovered items and the circumstances surrounding the incident. The AAC has also called for the arrest and prosecution of any other persons found to have been involved, and demanded an investigation into the conduct of any security officers who may have acted unprofessionally.

 ‘Devastated’ Bond girl Ursula Andress, 90, laments losing $21M fortune to ‘ruthless’ manager


Legendary actress Ursula Andress, best known as the original Bond girl in Dr. No, has revealed that she lost a staggering £16 million ($21.3 million) due to alleged financial misconduct by her former manager, Eric Freymond. 


In a recent interview, the 90‑year‑old star said she feels “devastated” and exploited, claiming Freymond deliberately preyed on her trust and age. The ordeal has left her struggling with anxiety and sleepless nights, describing the sense of helplessness as “unbearable.”


Reports indicate that Freymond transferred Andress’s fortune from her Lombard Odier bank account to another institution without her consent and even purchased expensive artwork for his wife using her funds. 


He had previously been suspected of embezzling money from Hermès heir Nicolas Puech and confessed to some charges during questioning in Paris in July 2025 before taking his own life two weeks later. 


Andress’s management team has confirmed she was the victim of a large‑scale fraud scheme, and Swiss authorities are investigating the case to determine liability.


Despite the financial turmoil, Andress’s legacy in film remains iconic. Her role as Honey Ryder in Dr. No cemented her place in cinematic history, with the famous white bikini scene becoming a hallmark of the Bond franchise. 


She went on to star in films such as Casino Royale (1967), The Blue Max (1966), and Clash of the Titans (1981). Her last acting credit was in the 2005 Swiss film The Bird Preachers. 


Beyond her career, she was married to actor John Derek and later had a son, Dimitri, with actor Harry Hamlin. 


Today, she says she feels “disgustingly cheated” but hopes justice will be served so she can reclaim peace in her retirement.
