The Harvard University Hutchins Centre for African and American Research in the United States has said that it will release the video of the lecture delivered by Nobel Laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka, within a week. Some online media had quoted Soyinka as saying Igbo were politically naive while delivering a lecture titled, “‘Predicting Nigeria, Electoral Ironies,” at the institution. He was quoted as saying “The Igbo are probably the only group of Nigerians that you can predict with great accuracy whom they will vote for in an election, because they tend to put their votes where their stomachs take them; suffering as it were, from incurable money-mindedness, as they would stop at nothing in their quest for personal financial gain.” However, Soyinka said in a statement on Tuesday that it was unfortunate that people could tell lies against him. The playwright described those who believe the report as morons.
The 51-year-old Fury actor and 39-year-old Maleficent actress snapped up the two story architectural gem in 2006 for $3.5m, but - according to TMZ - have now listed it for purchase. The three images, which were available when they bought the property in 2006, show a trio of rooms, each decorated in impeccable style. The house, which was a renovated 1830's property, boasts gorgeous chandeliers, crown mouldings, fireplaces, high ceilings, has a custom cabinetry a grand spiral stair case and elevator. There is also a chef's kitchen with top-of-the-line appliances, a large private courtyard and a separate two-storey guest house. The images offer a rare glimpse into the home of Pitt and Jolie, who are perhaps Hollywood's most powerful couple.
