Almighty Brazil indeed. England I can understand, but fact remains that Belgium players are yet to prove the hype they’ve been getting for the pat years.

No finals, no trophy, just fancy players with no seriousness.
Perhaps, they've been unlucky

They are over-rated and always quick to flop against big teams in major tournaments.

They are only quick to flex their muscles on smaller teams, Na today? cheesy

They got Denmark, Finland and Russia. They’ll qualify the group as usual and still get disgraced by a good team as.
They defeated almighty brazil and england (twice) at the worldcup in 2018. Have you forgotten?

Most Belgium players are actually overhyped players with huge price tags, they are gradually declining and getting old.

Portugal players are no way better than England players if we are being honest.

I’m tipping on France and England to win it.
Belgian players are highly rated not overhyped. They are very decent and score loads of goals when they play together. Go and watch their qualifiers

Politics › LG Poll: Party Members Beat Up APC Chairperson In Jigawa by Mecka(op): 6:21pm On May 25, 2021
The 70-year-old party chairman was reportedly
hospitalised following the incident

By Abubakar Ahmadu Maishanu

The All Progressive Congress (APC) chairman in
Dutse Local Government Area of Jigawa State,
Yakubu Ibrahim, was on Monday beaten up by
aggrieved members of his party.

The development followed an announcement by
Governor Muhammad Badaru of the names of
party’s candidates for the local council elections in
the state scheduled for June 26.

According to a statement by the governor’s
spokesperson, Auwal Sankara, Bala Chamo was
picked as the chairmanship candidate of the party
for Dutse Local Government Area.

But some members said Mr Chamo’s choice was
against the preference of the majority of party
members in the council area.

The angry members invaded the party secretariat
during a meeting, dragged out the APC chairperson
and tore his clothes.

The 70-year-old Mr Ibrahim was reportedly
hospitalised following the incident.

The police commissioner in the state, Usman
Gomna, told reporters that two persons had been
arrested over the incident and debunked
speculations that the official was kidnapped by
gunmen.

The police chief said the incident was just an intra-
party crisis.

Jigawa LG elections

The Jigawa State Independent Electoral Commission (JISIEC) has fixed the local government elections
for June 26.

In an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria
(NAN) in Dutse, on Sunday, the JISIEC Chairman,
Adamu Ibrahim, said the commission would
organise free and fair elections in the 27 council
areas.

“We have 287 wards in the 27 Local Government
Areas of Jigawa State and we have 3,527 polling
units,” Mr Ibrahim said, explaining that the
commission also had 11,357 ad-hoc staff that
would be involved in the elections.

“As of now, we have 18 political parties that have
indicated interest to participate in the elections and
I know others are coming. The main parties are All
Progressives Congress (APC), Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP), and some others,” Mr Ibrahim said.

The chairman also said the sale of nomination
forms for the office of the chairpersons and
councillors would commence from Monday, May
24, and screening of the candidates would follow
later.

NAN reported that the commission had fixed
N500,000 as nomination fees for the office of
chairman and N250,000 for the office of councillor.

At 22, you may have married her when she wasn't ready. A girl her age is still basking in the euphoria of youthfulness. Reality hasn't dawn on her yet. That is why she can be messing around with a male friend. The best you can do is call a family meeting or look for an elderly woman to advice her.

richmond500:
most girls in their early 20's are not marriageable.
That is the age when they want to explore their fantasies cos while in their teens, their parents always protect them and stop them from having intimacy with the opposite gender while their elder sisters and brothers always sleep out and have friends, all they do in their teen is masturbate and hope they get older to have a mind of their own too.

Getting married to the 20's is like denying them the right to explore the world they have longed for, at this age, they will be rebellious if u stop them cos they feel they are adults and adults do what they like.
When they get older and more experienced, they try to understand that being an adult is not thesame as doing what u like, at this stage, u can wife them and have peace of mind
Unfortunately, many nigerian girls don't mature with age. For instance, a 27 yr old girl can be acting like an 15 yr old, not becos she's deformed but becos she refuse to grow up

Paul onuachu just won the best player in Belgium.

He scored 33 goals in 38 games.

That is elite. Erling haaland no do pass dis one before he moved to Dortmund with all the hype.

Why is he not getting the hype?

Is his skin color or nationality a factor?
He's not playing in an elite league. The Belgian league is a small league going by uefa coefficients.

Politics › IPOB Hires Another Lobbying Firm In Fresh N300M Deal by Mecka(op): 8:17am On May 25, 2021
By Ade Adesomoju
The leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of
Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu , has engaged a new
American lobbying firm to help the group win the
support of the U.S. government.

The one-year deal is slated to run for 12 months
and is costing Mr Kanu and IPOB $750,000, which
is over N300million at the current official exchange
rate of N410 to one U.S. dollar.

PREMIUM TIMES is in possession of the contract
papers which Mr Kanu signed with the BW Global
Group (BWGG LLC, in February.

The firm, co-owned by Jeffrey Birrel and Alan White,
is registered in Washington D.C, the U.S. capital,
which has a high concentration of top government
officials, lawmakers, policymakers, and opinion
leaders, who IPOB is trying to engage on the
rightfulness and necessity of its cause.

The agreement, which took effect from March 1,
2021, came months after an earlier one struck by
Mr Kanu with another U.S.-based lobbying entity,
Mercury Public Affairs LLC, expired.

Under the old contract, IPOB, through Mr Kanu, paid
$85,000 per month beginning September 23, 2019,
in addition to a $5,000 one-time compliance fee.

That means Mr Kanu paid $1,025,000 for the 12-
month contract, which is approximately
N400million, based on the prevailing official
exchange rate at the time (N380 to a dollar).

In June last year, the Nigerian government fumed at
the deal, which it claimed was aimed at discrediting
the country in the U.S. and Europe.

PREMIUM TIMES got the details of both the old and
new deals from the contractors’ registration
statements and agreements filed at the Foreign
Agents Registration Unit of the U.S Department of
Justice.

The registration, mandatory under the U.S. Foreign
Agents Registration Act of 1938 and for “public
disclosure”, entails filing documents, including
completed predesigned forms marked Exhibits A
and B, and the agreements stipulating the full
details of the contract.

Failure to provide this information “is subject to the
penalty and enforcement provisions established in
Section 8 of the Act,” FARA says in one of the
documents reviewed by this reporter.

The services Nnamdi Kanu wants

The terms of the successive contracts with a strict
focus on the U.S appear to be part of Mr Kanu’s
quiet but broad efforts to win the support of the
U.S. government, Congress, policymakers, and
opinion leaders for IPOB.

The filings by BW Global Group (BWGG) after
negotiations were concluded in February show that
the firm was engaged by Mr Kanu to undertake
“political activities” in the U.S. on behalf of IPOB.
The activities include engaging the U.S.

government, Congress and the Department of State,
(the equivalent of Foreign Affairs Ministries in
Nigeria and other countries) and engaging
policymakers on behalf of IPOB.

“The registrant (BWGG) expects to advocate on
behalf of IPOB within the US Government (including
the U.S. Congress and the U.S. Department of
State) and otherwise engage policymakers and
opinion leaders,” a part of the registration statement
marked Exhibit B, read.

The agreement, signed on February 24, 2021, by Mr
Kanu, another representative of IPOB, Rita Eze, and
a co-owner of BWGG, Mr White, provides further
details of what the job entails.

“BWGG shall provide the IPOB with services relating
to the promotion of human rights and democracy
and shall otherwise act as an advocate for the
indigenous people of Biafra,” the document reads in
part.

It added that BWGG “may also undertake other
similar services that might be referred to BWGG
from the IPOB from time to time by mutual
agreement.”

The deal has the same scope as the expired
contract executed by Mercury Public Affairs, LLC.
Under that agreement, Mercury provided “strategic
consulting and management services specific to
issues facing the client in the areas of government
relations and issues management.”

The payment mode

BWGG is expected to provide the agreed services
under the new agreement to IPOB for a period of
one year from March 1, 2021, through February 28,
2022.

The firm is to receive its payment for “professional
services” of $750,000 in monthly instalments.

But $100,000 is to be paid at the signing of the
agreement covering the first two months – March
and April 2021 – “leaving a balance of $650,000”.

The balance of $650,000 “will be paid in monthly
instalments of $65,000 USD per month commencing
on May 1, 2021, and paid successively on the 1st
of each month until the total fee of $750,000 USD
has been paid to BWGG by the client”.

“Payment to BWG shall be by bank wire or bank
draft,” the document added.

The firm, under the agreement “will provide monthly
status reports as deliverables regarding the
progress and status of the project.”

Nnamdi Kanu and the separatist campaign

Mr Kanu, a British and Nigerian national, has a
relatively strong footing in the U.K.

His engaging lobbyists to win the support of the
U.S. appear to be part of a broader move to win
the buy-in of western powers in the separatist
cause of IPOB.

IPOB, known for its agitation for an independent
Republic of Biafra, has had a series of violent
confrontations with Nigeria’s security agencies.
Weeks of deadly encounters between the group’s
members and soldiers culminated in a military
invasion of Mr Kanu’s home in Afara-Ukwu, near
Umuahia, the Abia State capital, in September 2017.

Mr Kanu, who wants the Igbo-speaking states in
Nigeria’s South-east carved out of Nigeria, fled the
country in the wake of the military invasion.

Following that encounter with IPOB militants, the
Nigerian government obtained a court order on
September 20, 2017, to designate the organisation
a terrorist group and to proscribe it.

But the British government has yet to recognise
IPOB as a terrorist group. There is even suspicion
by some officials of the Nigerian government that
Britain facilitated Mr Kanu’s return to the U.K after
he escaped the military invasion of his home.

PREMIUM TIMES has yet to independently verify
that claim.

With the charges of treasonable felony still pending
against him at the Federal High Court in Abuja, the
Nigerian government has repeatedly fumed about
the protection he and other IPOB members appear
to be getting from the British government.

Since fleeing Nigeria, Mr Kanu continues to engage
IPOB members through his social media channels,
with the government often attributing escalating
violence in the Southeast region to IPOB.

Many local and international human rights
organisations have also condemned years of
military attacks on the group that started as a
peaceful organisation pursuing the rights of its
members to self-determination.
