Donald Trump's state visit to Britain which was rumoured to have been set up for June will now be delayed so as to avoid protests in the UK over his recent policies. The visit has now been postponed to October in order to give time for the controversy generated by his travel ban to die down. The visit is expected to be from October 5th to 8th . The date for the visit falls in at the time when Parliament will be on recess so this means Trump will not have to address MPs in Parliament and risk further protests.     Last Month speaker John Bercow moved to ban Trump from addressing Parliament as Britons took to streets to protest Trump's expected visit.  A senior government source told The Sun that Trump will like to be in the UK this year but he wants to wait for the heat to die down before making the visit.

For today’s challenge the Housemates got asked to visually represent Big Brother’s omnipotent presence in a portrait of him. They were given paint, brushes and a blank canvas then tasked with letting their imaginations “run wild!” HoH, TTT hadn’t even finished reading out the Task and the Housemates were already buzzing! They then started discussing what Biggie might look like and their ideas were quite fascinating and diverse. TBoss thought that he wasn’t “handsome” in the classic sense but was attractive in a “rough” and rugged way in addition to having locs! Bisola thought he was tall, dark and handsome as well as sharp and well dressed. TTT took a more conceptual approach describing that he saw Biggie as a supreme, omnipotent being but one without a face and dual personalities. On the one hand the fact that he “saw all” made him like a diety “with light around his head” but because he was also a trickster...

He, therefore, urge Governor Fayose to spend his little time left in office on delivering on his promises which he had failed to fulfilled to the people of Ekiti State.

Barcelona boss Luis Enrique has confirmed he will step down at the end of the season. The 46-year-old, in his third season in charge at the Nou Camp, was speaking immediately after their 6-1 win over Sporting Gijon. Enrique won the Champions League as part of the treble in his first year at the club, and led his side to the domestic double last season. He will now leave the club at the end of his contract in the summer. Barca’s win over Sporting took them to the top of La Liga, but Real Madrid, who are currently playing Las Palmas, will overtake them again with a win.

Neymar scored a sublime goal as Barcelona turned on the style against Sporting Gijon to go top of La Liga – for at least two hours. Lionel Messi’s header and an own goal by Juan Rodriguez put Barca in control before Carlos Castro made it 2-1. Luis Suarez and substitute Paco Alcacer extended the lead before Neymar’s exquisite free-kick goal, with Ivan Rakitic completing the rout. Champions Barca moved two points clear of Real Madrid. Zinedine Zidane’s side play later at home to Las Palmas (20:30 GMT).
