After losing their opening match of the 2014 World Cup to Brazil, all that Croatia's players wanted to do was relax at their hotel pool in the nude. Sadly, the privacy of the pants-less pool party at their Praia do Forte base was compromised by two Croatian photographers, who hid in the bushes and took pictures that have now been published online.

And now, the players are refusing to talk to World Cup reporters. Their coach, Niko Kovac, who is currently very pissed off at the incident told reporters:

I can’t force them to be at your disposal after what you have done to them and their families. How would you feel if someone took naked pictures of you? They are adamant that they won’t speak to you lot any more and I don’t know whether the silence will end tomorrow or last until the end of our World Cup campaign. I respect my players’ opinion and I also know that you have done a very professional job so far but you blew it with this one. The whole world has seen the photos.”

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo said on Thursday that he could reach out to the violent Islamic sect, Boko Haram, over the abduction of more than 200 schoolgirls by the sect, but regretted that the Federal Government had yet togive him the go ahead.

Obasanjo,in an interview on the Hausa Service of the British Broadcasting Corporation, monitored in Kaduna, said he had a communication link with the sect, expressing the fears that the more than 200 abducted girls might never return again.

He said the terror group might release some of the girls that might be pregnant and finding it difficult to cater for the babies in the forest.

He noted that the girls might have been divided into groups and not likely to be at the same location.

The former President said, “I believe that some of them will never return. We will still be hearing about them many years from now. Some willgive birth, but if they cannot take care of them in the forest, they may be released.”
