October 6 has officially been set aside as “WIZKID Day” to honour and celebrate Nigerian superstar, Ayodeji Ibrahim Balogun aka Wizkid by the Governor of Minnesota, Mark Dayton in the United States of America.
This huge landmark is to celebrate Wizkid’s enviable achievements in the music fraternity and also his role as a cultural influencer.
Fashion designers Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana were each given a reduced sentence of 18 months in jail yesterday by an Italian Court for a conviction on charges of hiding hundreds of millions of euros from Italian tax authorities.
The appeals court upheld a verdict issued last June against the pair on charges of using Luxembourg holding company Gado to avoid paying taxes on royalties of about €1bn (£820m).
In court yesterday, the two designers were each given suspended sentences of 18 months in jail – reduced from 20 months because of statute of limitations applied to certain facts in the case.
