D’banj? Marvin Winans? CNN? Bobby Brown? Who were the weekend’s Winners&Losers? See our review!

WINNERS
Whitney Houston
It was a homecoming, not a funeral, her family said. And oh, what a homecoming! Our Whitney got a well deserved send-off surely to heaven. We’ll always love you.

Mavin Winans
The Winans always get it, don’t they? Marvin Winans took the world to church on Saturday – his message trending globally again and again. He gave fitting tribute to a global icon. Well done.

CNN
It looked at first like a risky choice – what’s a news channel doing with a 4-hour church service broadcast? But the Whitney funeral coverage paid off big time for CNN. Good call.

Greece
Finally, as it seems the Greek cabinet has tackles how to implement EU and IMF-demanded austerity, rescue hopes rise with regard to reducing its huge debt.

Xi
Chinese leader-in-waiting Xi Jinping declared his US visit a “full success,” as well he should. The 5-day trip – everywhere from DC to Hollywood – was a fine success.

LOSERS:
D’banj
Sigh. Oh, D’banj. Oh. D’banj! Let’s tell you some home truths – the interview with Sahara Reporters was a disaster and many will continue to be disappointed in you. What were you thinking?!

Suleja
A bomb blast at the Morocco area of Suleja, just on the outskirts of Abuja, injured 5 people on Sunday, with one seriously injured. God help us.

Bobby Brown
Ah, Bobby. Certainly, it appears he was treated roughly by being asked to move so many times at the funeral for Whitney – but, still should he have stormed out? Not looking good.

Syria
It seems like it will not be going well for Syria anytime soon. As China begins to change its language Egypt recalls its ambassador, the violence continues to rage.

Nigerian police
Is it now a crime to hold peaceful protest in democratic Nigeria? Well you’d have to ask the police – which brutalised protesters in Lagos Saturday. Epic fail.
