WAYNE ROONEY RETIRES FROM INTERNATIONAL FOOTBALL AS ENGLAND'S ALL TIME LEADING GOALSCORER.

Wayne Rooney has retired from international football – despite Gareth Southgate wanting him back in the England squad.
Rooney bows out as England’s all-time leading goalscorer with 53 goals, and the second-highest appearance maker.
The former Three Lions skipper rejoined Everton this summer and has enjoyed a fine start to life back at Goodison.
After scoring his second goal in as many Premier League games against Manchester City, he confirmed he would speak to boss Gareth Southgate.
But he has now decided to hang up his boots, despite Southgate planning to select him for upcoming matches.

“It was great that Gareth Southgate called me this week to tell me he wanted me back in the England squad for the upcoming matches. I really appreciated that,” he said in a statement.
“However, having already thought long and hard, I told Gareth that I had now decided to retire for good from international football.
“It is a really tough decision and one I have discussed with my family, my manager at Everton and those closest to me. Playing for England has always been special to me.

Kola Abiola, the eldest son of Late Chief MKO Abiola, has finally spoken on his alleged marriage to Aisha Babangida, the eldest daughter of Nigeria’s former Military President Gen. Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida (IBB). IBB and MKO Abiola were friends until the latter contested and won the June 12, 1993, presidential election, but the former would later cancel the election. Their relationship went sour, but before the annulment, Kola and Aisha were allegedly dating. At a time, it was speculated that they secretly got married.
