SportsUefa Champions Leaque Draws 4:45 Pm by Anasko(op): 3:12pm On Aug 27, 2015
32 teams will learn their European fate in
Thursday's group stage draw. Getty
The group stage draw of this season's
Champions League takes place at Monaco's
Grimaldi Forum later today. Here's all you need
to know before it all gets started.
Where to watch live
The draw and its inevitably drawn out ceremony
will be shown live on Sky Sports News HQ and BT
Sport Europe. Uefa's official website will also
have live coverage. The draw is scheduled to
start 4:45pm UK
Preview
Following the conclusion of this week's playoff
rounds, we now know which 32 teams will be
eagerly waiting to learn their European fate in
Thursday's Champions League group stage draw.
Having eased past Club Brugge in their play-off,
Manchester United have joined Chelsea,
Manchester City and Arsenal as the Premier
League's representatives.
Louis van Gaal led his side back into the
competition after last year's absence where the
rest of the English representation fell woefully
short of the required standard. For the first time
in history, they will be joined by five teams from
Spain, with Sevilla and Valencia joining Barcelona,
Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid courtesy of their
respective Europa League and playoff successes.
This year's revised format means the champions
from each of Europe's top eight leagues will be
kept away from each other until the knock out
stages.
Pots and coefficients
For the first time in the competition's history, Pot
1 will consist of the competition's current holders
and the champions of the top seven associations:
Barcelona (Spain), Chelsea (England), Bayern
Munich (Germany), Juventus (Italy), Porto
(Portugal), Paris Saint-Germain (France) and
Zenit St Petersburg (Russia). As Barcelona enter
as both European and Spanish champions, the
extra spot in Pot 1 goes to Dutch champions PSV
Eindhoven.
As ever, teams from the same country cannot
play each other in the group stages. The rest of
the pots have been determined by the club's Uefa
coefficient, which is calculated by the sum of all
points won in the previous five years, plus 20% of
their association's coefficient over the same
period.
Pot 1 : Barcelona, Chelsea, Bayern Munich,
Juventus, Benfica, Paris, Zenit, PSV Eindhoven
Why advertise with us
Pot 2 : Real Madrid, Atlético Madrid, Porto,
Arsenal, Manchester United, Valencia, Bayer
Leverkusen, Manchester City
Pot 3 : Shakhtar Donetsk, Sevilla, Lyon, Dynamo
Kyiv, Olympiacos, CSKA Moscow, Galatasaray,
Roma
Pot 4 : BATE Borisov, Borussia Mönchengladbach,
Wolfsburg, Dinamo Zagreb, Maccabi Tel-Aviv,
Gent
Dates
After the draw, you will only have to wait a few
more weeks before the Champions League is
dominating your mid-week again. Group fixtures
will take place on:
Match day one: 15/16 September
Match day two: 29/30 September
Match day three: 20/21 October
Match day four: 3/4 November
Match day five: 24/25 November

PoliticsMeet The 23-year-old Nigerian Flight Instructor Based In USA by Anasko(op): 12:08pm On Aug 26, 2015
Mubarak Bashir is a 23-year- old Kano indigene
based in the US, was recently retained by the
Aerosim Flight Academy USA as the first
Africanflight instructor. Bashir, a native of Sitti in
Sumaila local government area of Kano state,
speaks on his career so far, among other issues.
Excerpts:-
Tell us a little about yourself?
My name is Mubarak Bashir, born in 1992 and
that makes me 23 years old now. I am from Sitti
in Sumaila Local government of Kano state. I did
my primary school at Sea Gate College in Lagos
and also went to Zaria Academy for my secondary
school. I later left Nigeria for Malaysia where I did
my first degree on software at Luton East London
University and currently working with Aerosim
Flight Academy as a Flight instructor in Florida,
United States of America.
How did you get into the aviation school and
under whose sponsorship?
After completing my B.Sc, I decided to pursue a
career in aviation. All these things wouldn’t have
been possible without my humble father’s
commitment to our education as his children.
When I told him about my intention, he told me
that it will be done. I applied and got admitted; I
started my training at the Aerosim Flight
Academy under the sponsorship of my father. My
father always wanted the best for us and he
stops at nothing to see that we got the best. He
has been very supportive and I owed my success
to him.
How would you describe studies in the US and
that of Nigeria?
Actually, these are two different issues and I
believe each has its own disadvantages and
advantages, depending on the personality
involved. When talking about two different
countries with distinctive differences in economic
and social standard, definitely studies in such
countries will not be the same. However, in flight
training, I think the weather in Florida is more
favourable for training and also they have
advanced flight training devices and better
aircrafts compared to Nigeria.
What do you think usually makes people to prefer
studying abroad than in Nigeria?
Actually, people travelled to a lot of places to
seek for knowledge and usually their main reasons
differ. But one thing remains unchanged and that
is people always want to get quality education.
What are the challenges you faced?
I guess the biggest challenge I faced is my age,
as a young man far away from home; I have to
be extra careful in the ways I conducted myself. I
have to be pushing myself to the desired stable.
However, in my chosen carrier it is not easy, for a
man of my age to become a professional pilot. It
takes lot of hard work, dedication and also lots of
sacrifice which I am willing to do.
Did you face any discrimination being an a
Nigerian or African?
None that I can remember, as a Nigerian and the
only African, I get equal and fair treatment from
my colleagues and the instructors.
What are your motivations?
First of all I have always been passionate about
flying. What motivates me is flying to different
places around the world and meeting people from
different background and above all my father’s
commitment to my success.
You were recently retained as a Flight Instructor
and the first African to achieve that. What is the
secret?
Most people only get their commercial pilot
license and head back home to work in the airline
agencies in their countries. I decided to stay back
after getting my commercial pilot license to
obtain my flight instructor license. So I guess the
secret is my determination to stay behind; and
getting the flight instructor license. You also need
to be on the F1 Visa which allows you to work.
Do you intend to come back to Nigeria and live?
Nigeria is my mother land and will continue to be,
I will absolutely come back to Nigeria because I
have no better place than Nigeria.
What are your future plans?
Now that I have been retained in the academy, I
will concentrate in justifying what I was retained
to do and after that I may consider working for
the airline or flying corporate.

Eyewitness: Nigeria's 'town of death'
By Anna Borzello
BBC, Yelwa, central Nigeria
Felled trees, branches and piles of junk metal lie
across the road to Yelwa.
Muslims say the town was sealed
off by Christian militias
They were placed there last week by armed men
who wanted to stop security agencies coming
into town and stopping the killings.
The closer we got to Yelwa, the more signs of
destruction we saw.
Burned houses, and the twisted metal and
shattered windows of cars, abandoned by the side
of the road.
The police said it was too dangerous for us to go
into Yelwa's centre, and made us leave their
armed convoy and wait by a vandalised petrol
station until they came back.
They drove off down the main street, through a
milling crowd.
'Military uniforms'
But instead, people were desperate to talk to us.
Muslim men from the Hausa-Fulani ethnic group,
immediately began to gather round to tell their
story.
They said that the attackers - armed with
sophisticated weapons - surrounded Yelwa on
Sunday and launched a killing spree that lasted
24 hours.
Some of the militia - who came from four
neighbouring Christian ethnic groups - were
stripped to the waist and painted black with
charcoal.
Others, the eyewitnesses said, wore military and
police uniform.
The attackers went from house to house looking
for people to kill, looting property and burnings
building.
Three mosques in this predominantly Muslim
town were destroyed.
'Mass grave'
It is still not clear how many people lost their
lives, although it is likely to be far higher than the
official toll of 67.
One man said 550 dead, another 600 - but some
of those may be simply missing as many people
fled during the attack.
Three mosques were burnt in the
attack
The men agreed, however, that 250 people had
been buried the day before in a mass grave.
I asked why the police thought that it wouldn't be
safe for us to drive around the town.
The reason was immediately clear.
The people of Yelwa feel that the security forces
and local government have let them down.
They say that on 20 April the police withdrew
from the town - and didn't come back until the
killing had stopped.
Earlier this week, when the local governor and
state chief of police drove through Yelwa, men
lined the street chanting at them, and the officials
were too frightened to get out of the car.
Revenge killings
The police say, in their defence, that sometimes it
makes sense to tactically withdraw - and that
they weren't able to come in during the fighting
because of all the roadblocks.
Army and police are now deployed in Yelwa.
And the president has set up a peace team to try
and resolve the conflict - which is rooted in a
dispute over access to land between the Christian
ethnic groups and the Muslim Hausa-Fulani.
But it is clear that the threat of ethnic and
religious killing in the region has not gone away.
There has been heightened tension in the region,
since the start of the year, and revenge killings
are common.
Earlier this year, Muslim Hausa-Fulani in Yelwa
killed 49 Christians who had taken refuge in a
church.

others were critically injured. The bodies of the
two gallant soldiers have been evacuated, to the
rear, while the other two wounded soldiers have
also been evacuated and are receiving treatment
at the military hospital. The unit also lost a
Mowag Armoured Personnel Carrier (APC) due to
the buried landmine between old Marte and
Kerenoa junction in Guzamala Local Government
Area of Borno State.
Despite this sad event, the troops are not deterred
as they continued their advance and pursuing the
terrorists to their enclaves in Sambisa forest.
Similarly, it is important to note that troops in the
various formations and units in Operation LAFIYA
DOLE are in high spirit and more determined to
destroy the terrorists camps and enclaves.
