Emmerdale star Danny Miller and wife Steph welcome third child and share adorable first photo

By 234Radio in Entertainment News, News

Emmerdale star Danny Miller has become a dad again after his wife Steph welcomed their third child. The actor – who recently returned to the ITV soap as Aaron Dingle – and his wife have announced the arrival of their son.

The couple already have Albert & Edith together but have now added another baby to their brood and they shared an adorable video of the kids meeting their little brother. In the adorable clip, the children held their baby brother and gave him kisses as they welcomed him into the world. Danny also appeared in the clip with his newborn son.

Alongside the video, he wrote: “When 4 became 5 … The one where Albert & Edith meet their new baby brother.” His co-stars reacted to the exciting news, with Isabel Hodgins (Victoria Sugden) writing: “So cute!!! Congrats guys.” Michelle Hardwick – who plays Vanessa on the ITV soap – added: “Ahhh congratulations to you all.”

Just recently, Danny revealed that three children was enough for him and Steph. He said: “Three is definitely the magic number – and probably the last one! My job is very demanding, and we’re a few hours away from family, so it’s not easy, but we’re excited. We’ve got two beautiful children already. It just feels like we’re completing the family.”

Danny also insisted that fatherhood hasn’t changed his work ethics. Speaking about his supportive partner, he added: “Steph is so supportive, even when it means long hours or being away. We work it out together and are more selective about what makes sense to pursue, but she holds the fort incredibly well.

“Any parent would feel that guilt. You miss moments. But thanks to camera phones and videos, you still get to see a lot. When I’m home, it’s about being truly present – work can wait until tomorrow. Family is always the priority.”

Asked how he would feel if his kids decided to follow in his footsteps, he said: “I’ll support whatever they want to do. Albert is very creative – he loves performing and dancing. Edith follows him around, too. They’ve got such a special bond and I love seeing that. Whatever they choose, we’ll be fully behind them.”

Danny and Steph made the decision not to find out the gender of their baby before its arrival. He explained: “We never actually find out. We like it to be a surprise. There aren’t many surprises left in life – this is the best kind of natural surprise you can get.”

Brazil’s Lula slams Trump, says there is no ‘logic’ to US tariff threat

By 234Radio in News, World News
After US President Donald Trump threatened Brazil with 50% tariffs and demanded that Jair Bolsonaro’s trial be overturned, Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva has stated that his nation will not comply with American instructions.

President Lula stated in an interview with CNN on Thursday that the tariffs have no “logic,” but that he does not believe there is currently a “crisis” between his nation and the US.

It surprised me, Lula said, “not just the value of that tariff, but also the manner in which it was announced.” “We cannot let President Trump forget that he was elected to rule the US and not to be the world’s emperor.”

Foreign leaders like Lula have expressed anger over the US president’s overt stance on economic relations with other nations, which he sees as Trump’s attempts to impose on Brazil on matters of trade and domestic judicial proceedings.

Former Brazilian president Bolsonaro, who has ties to Trump and his family, is currently facing a trial for allegedly trying to oust Lula’s victory over him in the 2022 election.

Trump called the trial a “witch hunt” and demanded that it end. He also faced legal issues as a result of his efforts to stay in office after losing an election. Benjamin Netanyahu, the prime minister of Israel, and other right-wingers have recently done the same.

Brazil’s judiciary branch is self-governing, according to the statement. Bolsonaro, the president of the republic, is not being judged personally, but rather by what actions he attempted to organize a coup d’etat, according to Lula, who claimed that Bolsonaro “is not being judged personally.”

Brazil will face higher tariffs if it continues to participate in the BRICS, a group of developing nations that has been promoting alternatives to the US-backed global financial system.

Trump has threatened to impose higher tariffs on any member nations who are associated with the bloc and attacked the organization for “anti-Western priorities.”

Trump’s threats and direct use of US economic leverage have sparked outrage in Latin America, where the US has a long history of heavily involving itself in various nations’ domestic affairs.

Lula remarked that Brazil should take care of Brazil and the Brazilian people, as well as not to take care of other people’s interests.

Police Arrest 11 Students Over Killing Of Colleagues In Kano School

By 234Radio in News, Nigeria News

Following the brutal murder of two of their fellow students, authorities in Kano State have confirmed the arrest of 11 students at the government-run boarding secondary school in Bichi.

The Kano State Police Command is looking into the incident, which shocked the neighborhood.

The two deceased students, Hamza Idris Tofawa and Umar Yusuf Dungurawa, are alleged to have been attacked by their peers using locally produced metal “Gwale-Gwale” objects.

The students are currently being interrogated to determine their roles in the killings, according to the spokesperson of the Kano State Police Command, Abdullahi Kiyawa, who confirmed the arrests on Thursday.

In a message to Channels Television, Haruna stated that “eight students were detained over the incident, and the investigation is still pursuing the level of their individual involvement.”

He assured the general public that the command is committed to bringing justice to the victims and their families.

“We take this issue seriously,” we say. Once investigations are finished, the culprits will be charged, he added.

This unfortunate event has deeply sadden the Ministry of Education. Mohammad stated during the visit that we have launched an immediate investigation and will cooperate with security forces to stop this from happening in the future.

It’s heartbreaking, they say.

Under the condition of anonymity, a teacher at the school described the incident as “the most disturbing” in recent memory.

“This is something we never expected.” The teacher said, “It’s heartbreaking to lose such young lives in such a violent way.

Parents and guardians in the community want more security measures and swift justice for school buildings.

The bodies of the deceased students were being deposited at the Bichi General Hospital morgue at the time of this report, and a post-mortem examination is anticipated to be performed.

Spain’s Bonmati ‘Grateful’ For Euros Bid After Meningitis Scare

By 234Radio in News, sport-news

After recovering from a brief bout of viral meningitis that briefly threatened her tournament, Aitana Bonmati is feeling well ahead of Spain’s quarter-final match against Switzerland at Women’s Euro 2025.

As World Cup winners Spain fight for their first-ever women’s European Championship victory, two-time Ballon d’Or winner Bonmati will begin in Bern on Friday.

She made her debut appearance of the tournament last week with a 3-1 victory over Italy, which secured top spot and nine points in Group B. Due to her illness, she made substitute appearances against Portugal and Belgium.

“From one day to the next, I was feeling great, and then, bam, something brand-new, a negative, and uncomfortable experience.” And you must endure, Bonmati told reporters on Thursday.

“Fortunately, I can say I can play in the quarter-finals today.” I must be appreciative.

I’ve had a difficult few weeks, and I want to enjoy myself because I haven’t been able to do much, I said. I’m hoping I can deliver.

Noelle Maritz, a Swiss defender, hopes that the Swiss will reach the final four of a significant international women’s tournament for the first time thanks to fervent home support at Wankdorf Stadium.

Although playing in front of so many people in such a large stadium is truly special, we all anticipated a positive atmosphere. Aston Villa defender Maritz told reporters, “The energy of the fans really pushes you on.”

“We had a really special moment when we won Group A and faced Finland, and the crowd cheered us.” Our fans had a wonderful time, and it was great to share such an original experience. Tomorrow will be filled with lots of energy, according to me, thanks to the fans.

Switzerland have a tough task ahead of Spain, who scored 14 goals in their three group games but is still under less pressure to win than their rivals, who are the favorites to win the trophy later this month.

Coach Pia Sundhage said, “I think the pressure is on now, and we have a chance,” and it’s a quarter-final.

We stood up and said, “This is so much better than it was just a few weeks ago,” during our five-versus-five training session.

“And I think a portion of that is that we are able to deal with the pressure because there has been a lot of pressure.”

On Wednesday in Zurich, the winner of the match from Friday will face either France or Germany in the semi-finals.

And his friend and publicist, Anthony Turk, shared a press release to reveal the sad news. It read: “‘Beloved Emmy-winning actor Tristan Rogers, best known for his role as Robert Scorpio on the daytime drama, General Hospital, is sharing with fans that he has been diagnosed with cancer.

“While he remains hopeful and is working closely with his medical team on a treatment plan, this is a challenging time for Tristan and his family.”

Anthony concluded: “‘They are deeply grateful for the outpouring of support and love from their friends and family. Tristan sends his love to his fans and wants them to know how much he appreciates their loyalty and encouragement over the years,’ Turk concluded. ‘This support means more to him now than ever.”

2024 WAFCON: History At Stake As Nigeria’s Super Falcons Face Zambia

By 234Radio in News, sport-news

The Super Falcons will want to stop the Nigerians from making the final four of the competition for the first time when they face Zambia in the quarter-finals of the Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON).

The third-place match at the 2022 edition of the championship was recreated in the Friday blockbuster game. The Super Falcons were defeated by the Zambians in that year, guaranteeing that Nigeria would not finish on a podium.

With seven points, Nigeria advanced to the quarter-finals of the competition. Before drawing with Algeria, they first won their first two games.

The 2018 WAFCON winners have scored no goals in three games this year, demonstrating an unquestionable defensive record in Morocco. They have been unimpressive in front of goal, enjoying the majority of possession in games but being unable to make that count, in part because their defense is water-tight.

[WAFCON 2024] Nigeria’s Super Falcons fight Botswana in the Eye Quarter-Final Berth.

In their final group game against Algeria, Nigeria had 24 shots on target, with only two of those coming.

The Copper Queens, however, have one of the tournament’s deadliest attacks, unlike their foes. They scored six goals to place them second in Group A, earning both analysts and fans praise.

However, the third-place finishers in 2022 have conceded three goals so far, a flaw that the Super Falcons would like to exploit.

Watch the matches between Zambia and Nigeria on ESPN.

The Super Falcons display a mix of young and experienced players, as is customary for multiple-time champions.

Even though Asisat Oshoala has received criticism for her performance in Morocco, she is one to watch for her one goal so far in the competition. If Nigeria wants to beat Zambia on Friday, the six-time African Women’s Player of the Year must rise to the occasion.

Forward Chinwendu Ihezuo is another player worth watching in addition to her. The Pachuca striker has scored twice, including the late winner against Botswana, in the search for the Golden Boot.

When the game begins at Casablanca, Morocco’s Stade Larbi Zaouli, she will be relying on her to perform the same magic.

Given their pace, strength, and finishing ability, the trio of Barbra Banda and Racheal Kundananji, who have three goals each, will be a struggle for the Nigerian defense.

The women’s player of the year award is currently held by Banda. In the women’s continental competition, her pairing with Kundananji has become one of the most feared attacking pairs so far.

Head-to-Head Record for Zambia and Nigeria

Nigeria and the Copper Queens have faced off three times at the WAFCON. In the group stage, the Super Falcons defeated them 6-0 in 2014 before a 4-0 defeat in Ghana in 2018. The Southern Africans, however, won the bronze medal game with a 1-0 victory over their rivals in 2022 with the final laugh.
