In the midst of what was a breathless weekend AFCON qualification action, both Nigeria and Ghana paid the price for contention decision making post Brazil 2014 – the super eagles were stunned at home to Congo, whilst the black stars were fortunate to escape the visit of Uganda with a point.

Nigeria’s preparation had been plagued by farcical contract talks between coach Stephen Keshi and the nation’s football authorities, with the hierarchy seemingly putting minimal value on the man who has hauled a nation from its knees back to the apex of African football.

When Keshi took the reins Nigeria were in dire straits – a situation which on the pitch cumulated in the ignominy of failing to reach the 2012 AFCON – yet the former skipper has completely reversed fortunes – guiding the super eagles to an unforeseen title in 2013 before a first World Cup knock out appearance since 1998.

The majority of coaches would have walked away long ago – Keshi’s contract expired back on July 30th – with the powers that be continually attempting to cut corners surrounding a new deal. It is testament to Keshi’s commitment to his country that he agreed to take temporary charge for the current round of qualifiers, but inevitably such uncertainty was always liable to harm Nigeria on the pitch.

The Nigerian FA’s history is ropey to say the least – Keshi has constantly been hindered by interference and nonsensical decision making – with this gross undervaluing of the inspirational coach’s monumental impact just the latest episode of a long running calamity – reports indicate the figure being offered is substantially down on what Nigeria’s rival are paying their respective coaches.

In the case of Ghana, the situation is starkly contrasting, with the Ghanaian authorities opting to retain Kwesi Appiah in spite of a World Cup campaign that descended into complete chaos – the black stars were heavily tarnished by both bonus disputes and infighting. That wasn’t Kwesi’s first disappointment either, given Ghana had fallen at the semi-final stage of the 2013 AFCON.

Neither Congo nor Uganda represented straightforward proportions – such is the depth of Africa’s football that there are now minimal easy games on the continent, at the same time the argument could be made that both were more competition ready than their more favoured opponents. Both had negotiated two rounds of knockout football to navigate their way this far, perhaps meaning a greater degree of sharpness – although it is worth pointing out Ivory Coast also endured an equally if not more testing examination against a qualifier from the opening two rounds. Unlike Nigeria and Ghana however, the elephants were able to navigate choppy waters, coming from behind to down an ever improving Sierra Leone – in contrast the black stars and super eagles were left to rue their respective disappointing showings.

Nigeria had not lost competively to Congo since 1981 at the same time they could boast an unbeaten home record stretching back 33 years – at the same time the red devils had only made it this far courtesy of Rwanda fielding an ineligible player and thus being thrown out. It would be a disservice to discredit Congo – who enjoyed a largely fruitful World Cup qualification bid – however undoubtedly the uncertainty surrounding Keshi’s future naturally had a bearing on the fixtures outcome.

Discipline issues once again reared their head in the case of Ghana, with Asamoah Gyan leaving camp just hours before kick-off in order to provide his brother with bail following an alleged role in a planned assault – Africa’s leading World Cup scorer would return but that episode wouldn’t have benefitted preparations.

Throughout Uganda – who are targeting a first AFCON in 36 years and arguably commenced the group as favourites to progress after Ghana – were the games dominant force with Ghana again cutting a disjointed uninterested outfit – the black stars only salvaging a draw via a debated Andre Ayew spot kick. The crowd in Kumasi – still hurting from Ghana’s disenchanting showing in Brazil – inevitably were quick to turn on their side, with Ayew’s spotkick only able to temporarily able to ease the growing pressure on Appiah’s shoulders.

The Ghanaian hierarchy have previously been quick to defend Appiah – laying the blame at the players door post World Cup, however the appointment of Milovan Rajevac – who Appiah assisted in guiding Ghana to an unprecedented last eight spot at the 2010 World Cup – raises contention surrounding even their faith in the current coach.

Neither will be afforded time to lick their wounds with Nigeria visiting a buoyant South Africa – who opened their account with a comprehensive win in Sudan – on Tuesday night, whilst Ghana travel to Togo. The pair remain overwhelming favourites to progress – in comparison to others both have been handed generous groups – nevertheless recent history has highlighted on countless occasions that reputation counts for little in modern day African football.

Nigeria would be well advised to make Keshi a realistic offer before the iconic coach finally loses patience and walks away – with it igniting the potential for the super eagles to fall at the same staggering rate that they have risen under his stewardship. There is unfortunately a growing worry that only when it’s gone will the Nigerian hierarchy realise what they had.

In Ghana’s case, the situation is somewhat more complexed with those at the top table clearly possessing faith in Appiah, despite growing signs that he is out of his depth – both tactical and motivational wise – in relation to extracting the best from what is undeniably a high maintenance yet extremely talented group.

What is for certain is that neither can take their place in Morocco for granted – the rest of Africa will not think twice about exposing their evidence cracks.

Ghanaian women are the third most beautiful ladies in Africa, according to ranking site Ranker.

They were beaten to the top spot by Somalia and Djibouti in that order, suggesting Somalian ladies are the most beautiful on the Continent.

After Ghana are Egypt, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Morocco, Kenya, Kenya, Rwanda and Seychelles – all fall within the first 10 African countries ranked according to beauty.

At the bottom of the 54-nation beauty ranking is the Central African Republic.

This suggests women from the CAR are the least beautiful on the Continent.

Apart from the CAR, the others at the bottom 10 include: Republic of Congo, 53; Swaziland, 52; Guinea Bissau, 51; Burkina Faso, 50; Equatorial Guinea, 49; Lesotho, 48; Malawi, 47; Chad, 46 and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), 45.

Popular Nigerian pastor, TB Joshua, has said there is a plan by international terrorist organisations to kidnap the pope.

According to him, the terrorists will first attempt to hijack a plane on which the pope will be traveling and then re-route it.

He says the move will be widely publicised on international media platforms including CNN.

“First they will take the plane and it will be like they cannot locate it and then it will be like that. So we should pray so that it will just not end like that.

"This is another big attempt they want to pick. It’s an attempt they want to do now, so they have to tactically plan at every airport so that this thing does not happen," Joshua announced in his Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN) in Nigeria.

“I as a man of God, am praying about it but all Christians must pray too. The popular cleric am talking about is the pope. We must pray for him," he told his congregation in a live service broadcast monitored by StarrFMonline.com Sunday September 7.

The "Man of God," as Joshua is popularly called, is believed to have predicted many world events including the death of famous pop star Michael Jackson and the missing of Malaysian flight MH370.

AFRICANGLOBE – President Robert Mugabe said Friday that White settlers who are still in the country should go back to England as he vowed that those removed from land redistributed to Zimbabweans would never be allowed to return.

Mugabe was speaking during the installation of a chief at Murombedzi Growth Point in his rural Zvimba home area.

“The West prefers a weak leader who, they hope, would allow the Whites to come back,” he said, speaking in Shona.

“They think if they intimidate us we will be cowed and allow the Whites to come back; that will never happen.

“Don’t they (Whites) know where their ancestors came from? The British who are here should all go back to England.

“What is the problem? We now have aeroplanes which can take them back quicker than the ships used by their ancestors.”

Mugabe, commended by European countries for allowing Whites to keep the land and resources that they had stolen from Africans after independence in 1980, now regularly rails against Whites and western leaders who are trying to destroy his country.

Damaging sanctions imposed by the European Union and the United States were aimed at punishing him for daring to right a colonial wrong by taking back Zimbabwean land from foreign colonists.

In July this year he also torched a storm after he declared that Whites were no longer allowed to own land in Zimbabwe, adding that those who were allowed to remain following the controversial land redistribution programme must now be removed.

“We say no to Whites owning our land and they should go,” he said then.

“They can own companies and apartments in our towns and cities but not the soil. It is ours and that message should ring loud and clear in Britain and the United States.”

Justice Minister Emmerson Mnangagwa later moved to calm investor concerns over the remarks by claiming that Mugabe was misunderstood.

Meanwhile, on Friday Mugabe also warned Zimbabweans against going into farming partnerships with Whites.

The Zanu PF leader has been incensed by reports that some of the beneficiaries of his land reforms, including top ruling party officials, have been leasing the farms back to previous White owners.

“You have to stop bringing these Whites back … it’s a dangerous, dangerous arrangement which we do not want,” he said.

“If it’s contract farming with companies that we know to be genuine we can accept that, but never with individual Whites.”
