Passion to push beyond boundaries inspired me into acting


Rising actor cum producer, Chris Nweke believes in pushing beyond boundaries in order to achieve his set goals in life. And this is what actually inspired his decision to go into acting.
I may not freely do that working in someone’s production as there may be a clash of interests. I am more than just an actor. Acting was a pathway to achieving my purpose which I always say is to make the world a better place. In my production, it is about educating you in an entertaining way.”
Nweke, who has feature in many movies and TV series including Lasgidi Cops, a TV series where I acted alongside Wole Ojo, Kenneth, Dayo Davies, ‘Shuga’, ‘Hell or High Waters, Ashes, Bad Teacher, Remember Me, Motives, My Girl, Dark Snow and One Loud Silence, said, while growing up, he looked up to notable actors like Genevieve Nnaji, Richard Mofe Damijo, Ramsey Noah among  others.
On his dream, Nweke said “I really do want to contribute in making the world a better place. Touch lives through my works. I want to carve out a niche for myself and a stand out in the crowd,” he enthused.

Barca set date to announce new coach after Copa del Rey

Barcelona will name its new coach on May 29, two days after the Copa del Rey final, president Josep Bartomeu confirmed on Sunday after the club’s title chase came up short. Reports in the Barcelona media last week said the club have already agreed a two-year deal with Athletic Bilbao coach Ernesto Valverde. Luis Enrique said in March he will be leaving the club after the season, and Bartomeu confirmed the timeline for announcing his replacement. “We thank Luis Enrique for the effort he has put in the demands he placed on himself. The door is open. Now we have the Copa,” Bartomeu said. “On May 29, we have a board meeting and we will announce the name of the new coach after.” Asked about Valverde, Bartomeu only said: “”He is a coach who is out of contract in the summer.” Real Madrid finished atop the table in La Liga, three points above second-placed Barcelona, who will still contest the cup final against Alaves on Saturday. “Obviously we congratulate the champions and our players for ...

New iPhone screen puts blue-colored spotlight on Japan supplier

The iPhone’s success has transformed the fortunes of dozens of suppliers, from glass manufacturers to the maker of robots that cut metal cases. Now, as Apple Inc. prepares to introduce a new smartphone with an OLED screen, a Japanese refiner better known for its chain of gas stations is about to join the list. Idemitsu Kosan Co. began experimenting with organic light-emitting diodes in the mid-1980s, seeking to reduce its reliance on petroleum after the global oil shock. Now, pick up Google’s latest Pixel smartphone or a Galaxy model from Samsung Electronics Co., and chances are the blue pixels on the OLED screens are built with Idemitsu’s materials or patents. Wider adoption of the advanced displays, which offer crisper images and use less battery power, is putting the spotlight on Japanese suppliers that up until now had virtually no stake in iPhone sales. Canon Tokki Corp., for example, has a near monopoly on the giant vacuum machines capable of making OLED screens. Dai Nippon Print...
