Sports › Minister Pays Keshi N14m by kurt09(op):
Super Eagles coach, Stephen Keshi, is smiling to the bank even as Nigerians, companies and members of the Nigeria Football Federation weep bitterly for missing the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations. The Minister of Sports, Tammy Danagogo, has paid Keshi N14m for the past two months, according to a report by Africanfootball.com.

It was learnt that the transaction was carried out without the knowledge of the board of the Nigeria Football Federation – a move experts say further undermines the authority of the NFF over the coach.

It was understood that Keshi was paid for October and November even though there is no contractual agreement between the coach and the NFF.

The Special Media Assistant to the sports minister, Patrick Omorodion, who confirmed the payment, however told The PUNCH that the money was not meant for Keshi alone.

“The money was not paid to only Keshi but it meant for the entire coaching crew. What was done by the ministry was just to fulfil an agreement earlier reached with the coaches. At the peak of the NFF crisis and with urgent matches to play, the minister stepped in and invited Keshi to handle those games after which it would be purely left for the NFF to retain him or ask another coach to take over.”

But the NFF officials say that the explanation cannot stand as the minister has quietly taken over their role which has ultimately made nonsense their position as the immediate employers of Keshi and to whom the coach should report to.

A member said, “The minister has been paying Keshi directly from the NFF subvention without any input from the NFF. This cannot be good for the relationship between employer and employee.”

Keshi was in charge for the Equatorial Guinea 2015 qualifiers double header against Sudan in October and then the qualifiers against Congo and South Africa last month. But he was sacked midway into the qualifiers when it became very doubtful if the country could qualify with him in charge.. When he was asked to go, the NFF announced a former coach of the Eagles Shaibu Amodu to take charge of the team for the remaining two matches but they had to rescind their earlier decision after Nigeria President Goodluck Jonathan asked that he should be restated. Even though most Nigerians have asked for a new coach, the NFF members have become helpless under the prevailing condition.

Even though the NFF president Amaju Pinnick has maintained a contract has not been agreed with Keshi, followers of the game in Nigeria see the N7m payment as acceding to Keshi’s demand that his pay be increased to that amount. The amount is N2m raise from what he received in his initial contract, which ran out after the World Cup in Brazil. http://www.punchng.com/sports/minister-pays-keshi-n14m/

This is a real story of a young Ex-Unilag girl who
passed away last month. Her name is Lola. She
was hit by a car at Oyingbo on her way to work at
Apapa. She was working with MTN. She had a boy
friend named Emeka, a banker who was recently
transferred to Abuja. Both of them were true
lovers. She spent half of the day and most night
talking with Emeka on her phone. Lola's family
knew about their relationship. Emeka was very
close to Lola's family in spite of the tribal
differences. (just imagine their love.) Before she
passed away at LUTH, she told her friends:"If I
pass away, please bury me with my cell phone"She
also said the same thing to her parents. After her
death at LUTH, the attendants couldn't carry her
body to the mortuary. A lot of them tried to do so
but couldn't. So they went to call a priest in
church who had the gift of communicating with the
dead. He sprinkled some salt and water on the
body and started speaking to himself slowly. After
a few minutes, he said:"this girl is missing
something". Then her friends told them about her
intention to be buried with her phone. They asked
them to bring a coffin, and then they opened it and
placed her phone inside the casket. After that, they
tried to carry the body which could now be moved
and they carried it away easily. Everyone was
shocked. A day later which was Lola's birthday,
Emeka came to their house with gifts but was so
shocked to receive the news. He couldn't believe
because he still spoke with Lola the previous day,
He then tried calling her phone again in their
presence and behold! It rang and Lola picked it and
they were chatting. They called the priest to come
and intervene and when he came and prayed for 5
hours,It was revealed that MTN is everywhere you
go. Chill! Don't hate me yet, because I'm also
looking for the idiot that composed this......lolz.
But u like gist sha!Oya pass it on!

[b]Mehn am so loving this.... Nigeria has great potentials. Come and see talents. How I wish we can all leave tribalism aside and forge forward as a great country. What am seeing in Akwa Ibom is just sending shivers down my spine. This is too colourful. Goodluck Jonathan, you just won back my heart tonight. My family and I are back wholeheartedly to your camp.

On the other hand, As elections are coming up, I do hope most of us will not be flabbergasted when I remind them that despite the plethora of natural resources abounding in this great country, a vast majority of her plebs and hoi polloi still live below the poverty line. Why is this so? The reason is simple. Nigeria today is immiserated because her political terrain is overun and inundated by bellicose and belligerent criminals who guise themselves as politicians. They have misruled this country a lot to the extent that the celebral disposition of so many Nigerians have been made so defective and most of them are now willing to sell their votes for a few cups of rice... Chaii. What a travesty! But do I blame the common Nigerians? Not at all. Someone who lives below 1 dollar per day must always struggle to get some alimentation for his hyperphagia cum polyphagia. I just pity them. How I wish there is much I can do right now to remedy their situation. Personally, am used to Nigerian politicians' histrionics. So, I WILL NEVER BE MOVED BY THEIR SHENANIGANS! I WILL NEVER BE MOVED BY THEIR POLITICAL CHICANERY. For now, all I can say is: UPON THEM, HOLY GHOST FIRE![/b]

Sports › Ik Uche Proud To Score 100th Goal by kurt09(op): 12:00pm On Oct 21, 2014
www.thenationonlineng.net/new/uche-proud-to-score-100th-goal/
Villarreal striker
Ikechukwu Uche is in
cloud nine after
reaching the 100 – goal milestone in Spain following his brace against Almeria on
Sunday. The Nigeria
international has now joined an elite group of players to have scored 100 goals in the Spanish
championships, including Lionel Messi and
Cristiano Ronaldo. The 30 year old took to social media on Monday to celebrate the landmark. “Great game last night, very proud to have scored my 100th goal in Spain. Just want to thank everyone for the support,”he tweeted. The Yellow Submarine
defeated Almeria, who featured Ramon Azeez, 2 – 0, thanks to goals on either side of the half by Ikechukwu Uche. A breakdown of Ikechukwu Uche’s goals revealed that he netted 2 goals for Racing Ferrol, 50 for
Recreativo de Huelva while he registered his name on the score – sheet 36 times for Getafe, Real Zaragoza,
Granada and Villarreal. The 30 – year – old is
currently locked in talks with the Villarreal power-brokers over
the extension of his
contract, which expires at the end of this season. Meanwhile, Uche has all but confirmed that he will be signing a new contract at El Madrigal. With his current deal due to expire at the end of the season, the Nigerian was linked with a January exit, and up until recently it was believed he was not too keen on extending his contract. While speaking to
reporters following the 2-0 triumph over
Almeria, where he
scored both goals for
the Yellow Submarine, Uche confirmed the
contract talks were
taking place and hinted an agreement could be reached soon. The Nigerian striker has spent his entire
professional career in Spain, having joined Racing Ferrol in 2002 and going on to play for Recreativo Huelva, Getafe, Zaragoza and Villarreal. It was at El Madrigal that Uche enjoyed the best period of his career, bagging 14 league goals in each of the first two seasons at the club. He has continued the rich vein of form this season, netting three times in six
appearances.

Politics › No Governor Can Take Credit For Wining Ebola War – Jonathan by kurt09(op): 8:25pm On Oct 16, 2014
Nigeria’s President, Goodluck Jonathan, on Thursday said neither he nor any governor in the country can claim the credit for winning the war against Ebola.
Rivers and Lagos are the two Nigerian states hit by the Ebola outbreak.
The federal government said the two states are now free of the deadly virus.
According to Mr. Jonathan, the government could not have succeeded in ridding the country of Ebola virus without the cooperation of the Nigerian masses.
The President said these at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, during the launch of Elumelu Nigeria Empowerment Fund, ENEF, to support victims of terrorism in the country’s North-east zone.
He used the occasion to thank Nigerians for buying into the Ebola campaign, saying that no government could have performed magic to rid the county of the deadly virus without the peoples’ support.
Mr. Jonathan, however, commended Nigerians for following the health guidelines set out by government, some of which was a departure from the norm.
He said, “When government said we must be mindful of gatherings, of handshakes and that we should not move corpse unnecessarily,” Nigerians heeded the advice.
He noted that even churches that he thought would resist the directive by still using a single cup to serve the Holy Communion to its members suspended the practice during the Ebola war.
Continuing, he said, “Nigerians became mindful. Friends stopped embracing themselves saying until we get out of Ebola.
“So it (Ebola campaign) had the buy-in of the populace and that is why we succeeded so fast otherwise we couldn’t have.
“There is no magic government could have used to solve that problem. No President or state governor will claim any credit. The credit should go to the ordinary Nigerians for the cooperation and their buy-in,” Mr. Jonathan said.
By his comment, the President appears to be reacting to remarks by top members of the All Progressives Congress, APC, including Governors Babatunde Fasola of Lagos State and Rotimi Amaechi of Rivers State, who have said the Federal Government did very little to contend the deadly virus and should therefore not claim credit for winning the war.
While speaking at the formal declaration of a former Head of State, Muhamadu Buhari, for the APC’s presidential ticket at the Eagle Square, Abuja, on Wednesday, Mr. Amaechi, said Nigeria’s flaunted success in the fight against Ebola is a fallacy.
He insisted that the Rivers State Government spent a whopping N1.4billion to stop the outbreak of the disease.
He faulted claims by Mr. Jonathan’s ruling Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, that the Federal Government successfully contained the outbreak.
He said, “I hear PDP and Mr. President claiming the glory of having fought Ebola. I asked one simple question: Rivers state government spent 1,406 billion to fight Ebola, the Federal Government brought N200m just last week. If we were waiting for that N200m, Ebola would have spread round Rivers State,” he said.
He said his colleague, Mr.Fashola, was also “fully in charge of the Ebola drive in his state”.
Further deriding the Federal Government, Mr. Amaechi said “Apart from announcing the number of patients, what did the Federal Government do for us? So, why did they politicise Ebola.”
Meanwhile, Mr. Jonathan said the Federal Government has made a donation of N250 million to the ENEF, saying that the government will continue ‎its sustained security operations to eliminate insurgency and restore law and order in the country.
Mr. Jonathan noted that the prolonged case of insurgency in the zone has led to the displacement of the population, destruction of infrastructure and the collapse of the economy in the area.
The rehabilitation of communities affected by the crisis, the President said, would require not only government’s intervention but also that of the private sector.
“I have realized over time that government alone cannot solve human problems. https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/169630-no-governor-can-take-credit-for-wining-ebola-war-jonathan.html

As we can see Buhari has 20 states as against
Goodluck's 16 states and if considering that the larger
population of the electorates reside in the North and
Southwest it stands to reason that Buhari will be our
next president, but that is if the contest is going to be
free and fair.
Pdp will win in Ogun, Taraba, Adamawa, Oyo.
