The clashes of 5 June and 11 June 2020 within the Atyap Chiefdom of Zangon-Kataf LGA and in parts of Kauru LGA triggered the latest cycle of violent strife in parts of southern Kaduna. The 24-hour curfew imposed on all the four affected LGAs has been relaxed to night-time curfews

The Agwatyap expressed his gratitude to Malam Nasir @elrufai for encouraging him about a month ago to initiate the dialogue among the communities in his chiefdom for a peace and reconciliation process

The governor commended the Atyap, Fulani and Hausa communities of Atyap Chiefdom in Zangon-Kataf LGA for the successful peace and reconciliation summit held on Saturday, 22 August 2020.


“All who seek to replace violent strife with harmony can be assured of the unstinting support of the state government for peace and concord in all our communities.” -Malam Nasir @elrufai

“This government has been clear and insistent since 2015 that the ultimate guarantee of peace is the willingness of communities to live in peace and harmony, and their resolve to settle all differences by strictly lawful means.”

This community support is as important as the investments we have made in stationing and maintaining detachments of the military and police in southern Kaduna.

Malam Nasir @elrufai assured the Agwatyap that the state government supports the quest for new layouts to encourage people from different communities to live side by side. He said the road project requested will be undertaken, and the question of options for youths addressed.

“I call on every person of goodwill to support the Atyap Chiefdom’s strong efforts to bring its communities together and stop the bloodshed. Everyone should reject the temptation to take laws into their hands, but instead submit all grievances to the lawful authorities”

lol. Now I get u. Like if eyimba is playing rivers united in a caf champions league match, u can say its national derby but u are going too far moreso, those derbies ain't as fierce as a local derby

rawpadgin:
rangers is in Enugu whilst shooting stars is in Ibadan so, u can't call clubs from different city a derby

naptu2:
Hahahahahahahahahaha

What is the difference between a national derby (e.g. Rangers vs Shooting Stars), a regional derby (e.g. Shooting Stars vs Stationery Stores) and a local derby (e.g. Stationery Stores vs Julius Berger?

This situation too happened in Nigeria in 1984, in the champions league final 2nd leg in Lagos between Shooting stars of Ibadan and Zamalek of Egypt at the National stadium.
Stationery Stores fc of Lagos were in a bitter rivalry with shooting stars that the Stores most vociferous supporters group known as "fire 2" (they mostly converge in the open terrace opposite the covered stand in the national stadium during international matches) jubilated when Zamalek scored through their Ghanaian international Emmanuel Quarshie, and again when Odegbami missed a penalty kick (even the penalty was retaken, he missed too)
After the match, Stores fan (who are jealous of shooting stars as the Adebajo boys haven't won the Cup) make jest of the dejected Shooting fans who came all the way from Ibadan to see their club fail to overturn a 2 goal deficit and couldn't lift their 2nd CAF champions cup.

I remembered Basile Boli's header that won the Champions League that year.

Olympique Marseille had a phenomenal team in the early 1990s. The flambouyant multi-millionaire, Bernard Tapie, bought over the club and assembled teams of superstars. At various times they had Jean Tigana, Chris Waddle, Abedi Pele, Marcel Desailly, Diddier Deschamps, Rudi Voller, Fabien Barthez, Joycelyn Angloma, Basile Boli, Alen Boksic and many other stars.


They got to the final of the 1991 European Cup but were beaten by Red Star Belgrade. They got to the final again in 1993 and defeated AC Milan to win the Champions League.

However, it was discovered that Bernard Tapie had bribed several members of the Valenciennes team to underperform during their league match against Marseille just six days before the Champions League final (he wanted his players to be able to rest). Marseille were stripped of the 1993 French title and relegated. PSG were offered the title but they rejected it and so there was no French league winner in 1993. Marseille were also banned from the 1993/94 Champions League, the 1994 European Super Cup and the 1994 Inter-Continental Cup.

Bernard Tapie was convicted of corruption charges and jailed and that was the beginning of the decline of Marseille.

You indeed know football; Abidi Pele was part of the 93 squard I believe ?

The order that was made in France yesterday has reminded me of a post that I wanted to make a week or two ago.

Someone claimed that Manchester United only started winning titles when the Glazers bought the club and that they were successful because of the money that the Glazers pumped into the club. I thought that he was mad. The Glazers only bought the club in 2003!

I had known since the late 1970s that Manchester United was one of the 2 biggest clubs in England. United and Liverpool exchanged control of the English First Division, with other clubs popping up occasionally to win it. United had won the European Cup in 1968, while Liverpool had dominated English football in the 1970s and '80s. United took back control in the 1990s and capped it with a historic treble in 1999 and Liverpool seem to be starting another period of dominance. You only need to watch Love Thy Neighbour to know all about the rivalry between Man U and Liverpool in the 1970s.

This thought reminded me of the concept of national derbies and this was what I remembered.


Italy: AC Milan vs Juventus.

England: Liverpool vs Manchester United.

Spain: Real Madrid vs Barcelona

Ghana: Asante Kotoko vs Hearts of Oak

Nigeria: Rangers International vs Shooting Stars.

Cameroon: Cannon Yaounde vs Union Douala

Scotland: Rangers vs Celtic

France: Olympique Marseille vs PSG

Egypt: Al Ahly vs Zamalek

Ivory Coast: Asec Mimosa vs Africa Sport

Brazil: Flamengo vs Vasco Da Gama

Argentina: Boca Juniors vs River Plate

South Africa: Kaizer Chiefs vs Orlando Pirates

Netherlands:Ajax vs PSV vs Feyenoord

Belgium: Anderlecht vs Brugge

Greece: Olympiacos vs AEK Athens

Turkey: Galatassary vs Fenerbache

Germany: Bayern Munich vs Borussia Dortmund

Yugoslavia: Red Star Belgrade vs Dinamo Zagreb.


Yesterday it was announced that PSG shirts have been banned in Marseille in order to maintain peace. Marseille are the first French team to win the Champions League (they won it in 1993) and PSG are playing in the Champions League final on Sunday.
