Chelsea have agreed a £40m-plus deal with United States-based sports
technology firm Infinite Athlete to become the new front-of-shirt sponsor.
They had started the Premier League season without such a sponsor after
their previous agreement with communications company Three expired.
The deal, for the 2023-24 season, covers both the men's and women's
kits.
Chelsea's women will wear the sponsored shirts for Sunday's Women's
Super League opener against Tottenham.
The men's team play Fulham on Monday.
The value of the deal places Chelsea among the Premier League's top
earners from shirt sponsorship, at a similar level to rivals Tottenham and
Arsenal.
Liverpool's deal with Standard Chartered is reportedly worth £50m per
year, while earlier this month Manchester United announced a partnership
from next season thought to be worth in excess of £60m a year.
Manchester City's long-term deal with Etihad is estimated to be the most
lucrative, at almost £70m a season. https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/66970280 |
Spasmodic missionary activities started in Benin in 1515 when some
Catholic missionaries set up a school in the Oba’s palace for his sons
and the sons of his chiefs who were converted to Christianity. The
Catholics, through the influence of the Portuguese traders, were the first
missionaries to set foot on Nigerian soil. The primary objective of the
early Christian missionaries was to convert the ‘heathen’ or the
benighted African to Christianity via education. The second missionary
endeavor to Nigeria was marked by the advent of the first English-
speaking Christian mission in Badagry in September 1842. The Christian
missionary school in Nigeria was without any doubt an adjunct of the
Church. It was a replica of a similar development in Britain during the
Dark Ages. The missionaries were generally strong disciplinarians and
they had abiding faith in manual labour and the rod as the cure to all ills
—idleness, laziness, slow learning, truancy, disobedience, and irregularity
of attendance. In the 17th century, the Roman Catholic missionaries
found their way to Nigeria. They came into cities like Benin and Warri
where they preached Christianity. But they were unable to convert the
kings and traditional rulers as these leaders were only interested in the
guns and mirrors the Europeans offered them. Eventually, slave trade
was abolished in the British Empire in 1833 and many of the slaves were
freed. Many years later, some of these slaves returned to Nigeria with
the religion they had learned from their Europeans masters. The
education provided by the missionaries was also instrumental in
converting a good number of slaves to Christianity. One of the slaves
that was instrumental to the advent of Christianity in Nigeria was
Samuel Ajayi Crowther who was captured by the age of 12 by Fulani
slave raiders and sold to Portuguese slave traders. Ajayi Crowther later
regained his freedom and became the first African to be ordained bishop
by the Christian Missionary Society (CMS). Additionally, Crowther was a
pioneer of local Christian missionary work in the country and he was
pivotal in the translation of the Bible into Yoruba language. Over the
years, Christianity has grown rapidly. In 1953, the percentage of the
Christian population was 21.4% and that percentage has doubled to over
50% with over 75 million Christians in Nigeria. Currently, the Southern
part of the country is dominated by Christians while the Northern part is
composed of predominantly Muslims. Recent estimates put the
percentage of Nigeria’s population that practice Christianity between
40% – 49.3%. Of that percentage, about 74% are Protestants, 25%
Roman Catholic, while the rest are split among other Christian
denominations. |
