Video: Steve Harvey visits Ghana, in tears as he confronts history’s horrors at a slave-trading castle

Steve Harvey was emotional as he walked through a slave trade site in Ghana -- where countless Africans were brutalized and tortured ... and the photos are tough to see. The legendary comedian and daytime talk show host was with his family Friday visiting the Elmina Castle on the Cape Coast -- where they were getting a tour and being briefed on the dark past of the trading post that was erected by the Portuguese in the 1400s. The Elmina Castle served as a cornerstone in the early European slave trade, and the inhumane conditions slaves were relegated to in those days clearly got to Steve, who had to sit down at one point and take a breather. It appears he was weeping in this picture. https://www.instagram.com/tv/B1QnnckHuOQ/?utm_source=ig_embed&ig_mid=XQNlzAABAAERzdlDneAVYO3n6-Kk TMZ reports that Steve and co. saw how Africans were crowded into small […]

FIFA bans former Nigeria coach Samson Siasia for life

Former Nigeria coach Samson Siasia has been banned for life and fined $50,000 by Fifa for agreeing to 'the manipulation of matches.' Siasia was coach of Nigeria between 2010-2011 and for a spell in 2016 but the time period when Fifa believes he committed his infractions is unclear. He has also served as coach of the country's Under-20 and Under-23 sides. In a statement, Siasia was found 'guilty of having accepted that he would receive bribes in relation to the manipulation of matches.'
