    Okoye, 56, was nicknamed the 'Nigerian Nightmare' and known for his powerful running style and ability to break tackles.
    In response to a tweet by a Nigerian man Wale Adetona, The Rock explained how he came about the character.
    "Yes sir, happy you picked up on that. Since my character was adopted by a Nigerian family, I wanted his last name to pay homage to one of my all time fav @NFL football players - the “Nigerian Nightmare” Christian Okoye. Enjoy Rampage", the superstar actor tweeted on Wednesday, April 11, 2018.

    The legendary NFL player also acknowledged the honour, describing it as "awesome".
    "I love it! That’s awesome my friend! Thanks for thinking of me, I love your work, I am a big fan", Okoye responded. Source:pulse

    BBNaija 2018: Why I could not connect with male housemates – Ahneeka dailypost.ng Evicted Big Brother Naija housemate, Ahneeka has spoken about her relationship with male housemates while in the house. Ahneeka, speaking with Pulse in an interview, said she did not connect to the guys in the house because of their romantic relationship with other female partners. “For some reason in the house, anytime I tried to talk to any guy in the house, people made it look like I was trying to steal their man. And Bambam was my girl so I couldn’t have her thinking like that, even though at some point she did. “So I was staying away from Teddy and he was making it known that I was being too reserved – It’s because of your babe [Bambam]. “I could flow with you, you could be my G, but I’m just respectful to your babe and not to start some drama in the house. “So that was just my concern. I couldn’t connect to the guys because of their wives,” Ahneeka said Source:Daily post
