Mayor of the Senegalese region of Sedhiou, Abdoulaye Diop, has confirmed plans to name the city’s new stadium after Liverpool star Sadio Mane as a reward for his performances at the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations.
The 29-year-old scored the winning spot-kick that helped Senegal beat Egypt 4-2 in the penalty shoot-out after a goalless draw at the end of extra-time, and it sealed the country’s first Afcon title.
Mane played in all of the Teranga Lions' games in Cameroon and he contributed three goals with two assists.

“Sadio Mane has honoured all of Senegal, the Sedhiou region and the entire Casamance area,” Diop said, per Sports News Africa . “I have decided to name the Sedhiou stadium after him.
“In doing so I wish to convey the gratitude of all the sons and daughters of the region towards him.

Manchester United number 1 goalkeeper has admitted that the bad results recorded so far this season has been as a result of evil pronouncement made by someone on the club.


The club has struggled greatly this season despite signing Cristiano Ronaldo, Raphael Varane and Jadon Sancho in order to improve on the successes recorded last season. The club also, sacked their former manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and employed Ralf Rangnick to manage the players on interim basis but the results recorded so far has not improved.


Just few days ago, the club squandered a 1-0 lead against a relegation threatened Burnley. So all these has moved the Spaniard to lament and bare his mind about the situation at the club.


According to the interview granted El Pais, De Gea said, "I think someone has put a curse on us or something. The truth is I don't know what's going on, I really don't. People always ask me and we talk about it as teammates and we just say we don't know what's happening."

I think so too...

Hi everyone,
I work remotely with a company abroad as a programmer and a friend that we work together has been telling me to join him abroad due to the damages I would suffer if EFCC arrest me and label me as a yahoo boy.

I don't own a car. I live a simple life but the compound where I live has some yahoo boys there.

My room has a setup with a large screen monitor plus my laptop and other things. I feel that if EFCC should come to my room and look into my laptop with other pieces of evidence I would give them such as my company slack, my Linkedin, etc they would know that I'm not a yahoo boy.

But I'm becoming scared every day. The reason, why I want to stay in Nigeria for a while, is to save up some money and put some things in place before traveling but my fears keep increasing every day with my friend telling me that EFCC won't ask any questions. They would just arrest me and publish my name as a suspect.

I have the money to process my visa and move but I want to save up for at least this year.

Following this topic on the front page: https://www.nairaland.com/6982240/efcc-arrests-42-suspected-internet, I wonder how EFCC was able to verify that they are all yahoo boys and I can see the names they already posted.

So my question is if EFCC comes to my house and sees all the evidence of me working as a programmer, will they still go ahead and arrest me?

I want to hear from those that have had experience with these guys

You have nothing to fear about EFCC... You should be scared of Nigerian police instead.

A fraudster, Richard Dexter, has been sentenced to over four years in jail after duping a millionaire he met on Tinder out of £150,000.

The 38-year-old conman reportedly conned Middle East-based executive, Amrita Sebastian, into sending him £141,500 in a series of payments after requesting for money to invest in biopharmaceutical technology.

He had claimed to be a successful businessman in the pharmaceutical industry and was on the verge of a “big windfall”.

Dexter, who is “charming, well-educated and well-dressed”, claimed he had over £4.2 million tied up in his investment account, however an investigation showed that he was lying and the said account which belongs to his friend, had only 37 pence in it.

He also claimed international companies – 3M and Pall Corp were interested in a tech equipment he had patents for and were willing to sign a deal worth almost £12 million for it. However, his claim was proven false again as the two companies say they were never in contact with him.

He also claimed he needed capital to fund the production of a piece of scientific equipment – a ‘Bioreactor Paddle’. He further told his victim that she had nothing to lose by giving him the money because he would pay her £100,000 as interest.

However, he is said to have spent the money he recieved from his victim lavishly  and paid £15,000 to a classic car company.

The father of two has now been sentenced to four years and six months in jail and a latter date was fixed to determine how he will pay back her money.

NaijaRoyalty:
The Oluwo of Iwo, Oba Abdulrosheed Akanbi, on Friday, denied writing Osun State Governor, Adegboyega Oyetola, to solicit support for a proposed wedding in Kano State.

A letter had gone viral on the internet where the royal father purportedly solicited money for the Kano wedding.

The letter dated February 8, 2022, addressed to Oyetola, was received on behalf of the governor, by the office of Special Adviser to the governor on Chieftaincy Affairs.

The letter read in parts, “I have the instruction of the His Imperial Majesty, Oba (Dr.) Abdulrosheed Adewale Akanbi, the Oluwo of Iwo, to notify you of Oluwo’s decision to marry a princess from Kano Emirate, to be precise, Ado Bayero Dynasty.

“I wish to remind your Excellency that this kind of royal wedding within two notable traditional institutions in Nigeria will require huge expenses, which necessitate the support of the state government financially, even logistically.”

But when contacted, Press Secretary to Oluwo, Alli Ibraheem, said the palace did not author any letter.

He said, “We didn’t author any letter. The letterhead you saw is not the one used by Oluwo. Moreso, if Baba will write government, it will carry his signature.”


Oluwo’s marriage to his Jamaican wife, Ms. Chanel Chin, had crashed in December 2019.

Most Nigerians have never heard the name Nnete Okorie-Egbe. This famous woman led the popular Aba Women Uprising of 1929 against the excessive colonial taxation in Aba by the greedy British colonialists. And she was then 63 years old. She died at 102 in 1968.

The British colonialists branded that famous uprising as "Aba Women Riot" to demonize the popular uprising. Unfortunately, This is what is taught in our compromised history books. It was never a riot, it was a popular uprising.

No single National monument has been named after this Heroin for Justice. And no statue for that famous uprising. Very unfortunate!

Dear Heroin, continue to rest in peace! We your children will walk your path.....#RIP

redrose88:
Good morning Nairaland members, I hope we have all had a nice week and are looking forward to the weekend.

I brought this issue here hoping for workable suggestions after seeing how you have helped other people with their various problems.

Apologies for the long post but I really need your help.

As far as I can remember my mother has always had some kind of issue with me, I don’t know, it’s like she hates me or something. Constant screaming, embarrassment, reporting me to my dad or her siblings since I was small. I usually chalked it up to traditional African upbringing or that she was tired or stressed from work but after visiting family back home (I grew up abroad) and them also coming to stay here I can say there is a difference between traditional/strict parenting and actual abusive behaviour.

Children are the centre of every Nigerian mother’s life and even if they have some tough love techniques or discipline that may look harsh to me as an oyibo they always show their love in other ways that you can observe.

Like making sure the child always looks neat, teaching them things they need to know especially female children like cooking, washing. At least you can always tell that the love is there even if its not all kissing or “I love you” and all that.

A small example: I would always end up at school with my hair messy and tattered, I wasn’t allowed to style it in the salon even though she always make sure her own hair looked good. If I asked to get a nice childrens style at a salon she would report that I’m trying to be like all these Jamaicans, Akata and so on. But when I visited Nigeria I never once saw any little girl whose hair wasn’t done nicely, even if they were living in the slums. And again, other Nigerian/Ghanaian children in the same school never looked the way I did so how is this an Africa vs. Akata issue?

It may sound silly now but it’s just a small example of her neglectful and nasty attitude that does not relate to being from Africa or being a good Christian or whatever.

If I wanted to ask her something she would snap at me and start being hostile, after a simple mistake she would tell me that I’m like my father’s side, and she placed a curse on me that my younger siblings would grow up to surpass me. Is this from African culture?

If I’m cooking she’s nagging everywhere, why am I doing it like this, why am I slicing it like that, why am I taking so long, why am I this and that. That I should stop blocking the kitchen and allow other people to use it. But when I ask what the correct way to do it is, she won’t tell me; she would prefer to mock me in front of everybody. Knowing how important cooking is for women in our culture why chase your daughter away from the kitchen?

What bothers me the most is that she is always very nice and kind to other people’s children (cousins, classmates, neighbours) and just normal with my siblings but the complete opposite when it comes to me. If she were just a mean person who was horrible to everybody, it would be much easier to handle but she’s not! All this seems to be reserved for me and me only.

As I grew older and started university I thought she was mellowing a little bit because she would draw me closer and have conversations but I noticed that most times her “niceness” was actually just manipulation to get me to do what she wanted, using me to dump her problems with my dad or to stop me becoming more independent. Any sign of independence and the insults start flying again, this is from somebody who always narrates how children start boarding school in Africa when they are 11 years old and university at 16 years old and don’t need to keep staying near their parents all the time.

I tried talking to her about the way she behaves but it always ended badly with her getting offended, telling me I’m being disrespectful and so on.

Actually after reading similar threads on Twitter/Nairaland I realised that the majority of elder African people would feel insulted if their child tried to broach such an issue with them, so I decided to abandon that method and I actually quite regret it.

And I also regret answering her back and getting into arguments with her because it only dragged me down to a lower standard and messed up my temperament without solving anything. As well as providing a poor example to my siblings and giving her more ammunition against me to report me with. I don’t like myself whenever I’m near her at all.

Eventually when I realised she was never going to change and seeing the impact it was having on my life and behaviour I just dropped all contact with her and avoided her completely. I do feel much better and I wish I had done this sooner but I think it harms me in the long-term.

For example when I get married she will have to be an integral part of the arrangements and beyond but I really don’t want anything to do with her, I don’t miss her at all and I can’t stand her. I can’t imagine her coming to visit or doing omugwo or anything like that. Can you imagine doing all that with somebody who even drags the kitchen with you??

There are countless times where I went against my own wishes and obeyed her trying to be a respectful daughter only for her to turn around and blame me when it went wrong and I strongly suspect that my future marriage will follow the same pattern if I don’t keep her away from it. But this approach only obtains in Western society where you can get married without anybodys input and not in Nigeria where you need your family to back you in everything.

I don’t know what to do because avoiding her essentially means avoiding my whole family. I can’t isolate any contact with them without her being involved in it somehow. At the same time I can’t imagine being stuck in her bondage again.

What do I do please?

something is wrong somewhere.... Be patient, time will soon come to leave the house for good. You won't be with get in her house forever.

Force is measured in Newtons, which are units that equal 1 kg * m/sec2. You can calculate the amount of force that an object experiences with the equation force = mass * acceleration.
How many newton's was the force zouma used to kick the cat,was the force enough to harm the cat one bit? No.
If the cat wasnt elastic and doesn't have the ability to always land on its feet, would it be hurt? No.
Was the act done out of violence? No, did the cat have fractures or signs of physical abuse? No.
If the cat was being abused would it remain in the house ? I doubt.
Did he do it with the intention to harm the cat? Obviously not, hes a footballer, he can kick a goat to oblivion if he wanted to harm.
I dont think this is about the cat, maybe its about the kids, did kids see the act as violence or injustice? No, it was just fun like playing with the cat.
I guess he was giving a bad example to the kids... Maybe.
Lets see the good example the public, Adidas and some companies are giving...
Showing their true colours... Anything but black.
Showing the definition of bullying... Hundreds of thousands against one person.
Showing prejudice... People have done worse and punished far less.
Showing the true meaning of VIOLENCE.Maybe they will request the death penalty next.
The worst of all people are not even the ones against him, its the ones that know hes being crucified and remained SILENT.
We come from different cultures and backgrounds, some see cat as luxury, some as pets, some see them as food, others see them as demonic manifestations, most that see cat as luxury eat beef ooo.

That's why everyone ought to be careful of what they put on social media... I blame his younger brother for his woes.

On Sunday last week, 1 of dem sent my babe money and said she shouldn't start spending the money except she has agreed to date him!

Now she didn't ask him for money, he was the one that called and asked for her account number!

I weighed the spiritual and other implications of the matter and told her to return the money down to the very last dime and she did!

I would never have believed that in these times, a girl would recieve money in her account then she'd return it to the sender, down to the very last Kobo, 290 taaaasan o!

I say make I share the story with una because at some point I became very proud of my girl!

Small money wey go enter my hand now, me and her, Marriage straight!
