Britishcoins:
I was there live siasia collected the bribe in order to pay his mother's ransom
It's got nothing to do with his mother's kidnapping. His mother was kidnapped in July, while FIFA began its investigation on February 11th.

I suspect that the issue being investigated occurred years ago.

The FIFA statement.


Adjudicatory chamber of the independent Ethics Committee sanctions Samson Siasia

(FIFA.com) 16 Aug 2019

The adjudicatory chamber of the independent Ethics Committee has found   Mr Samson Siasia, a former official of the Nigeria Football Federation, guilty of having accepted that he would receive bribes in relation to the manipulation of matches in violation of the FIFA Code of Ethics.

The formal ethics proceedings against Mr Siasia were initiated on 11 February 2019 and stem from an extensive investigation into matches that Mr Wilson Raj Perumal attempted to manipulate for betting purposes. This large-scale investigation was conducted by FIFA via its competent departments and in cooperation with the relevant stakeholders and authorities. 

In its decision, the adjudicatory chamber found that Mr Siasia had breached        art. 11 (Bribery) of the 2009 edition of the FIFA Code of Ethics and banned him for life from all football-related activities (administrative, sports or any other) at both national and international level. In addition, a fine in the amount of CHF 50,000 has been imposed on Mr Siasia.

The decision was notified to Mr Siasia today, the date on which the ban comes into force.

Who is Wilson Raj Perumal?


Wilson Raj Perumal is a notorious match fixer. He fixes matches for Asian betting syndicates. He has been jailed in several countries and he believes that it was his match fixing gang that turned on him and ensured that he was jailed.


Therefore, he told the police about his match fixing activities and also wrote a book about it.

He claimed that he fixed matches in the football tournament at the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta. He also said that he helped Nigeria and Honduras to qualify for the 2010 World Cup. He said that he tried and failed to fix several English Premier League matches. He was also involved in match fixing scandals in Singapore and Finland.

Wilson Perumal was also involved in the biggest match fixing scandal to hit Zimbabwe. It is alleged that players, coaches and officials of the Zimbabwean FA were paid huge amounts of money to fix matches during the Zimbabwean national team's tour of Asia in 2008 and 2009.


It is alleged that Samson Siasia agreed to accept bribes from him, but it is not specified whether the bribes were actually paid.

Samson Siasia has reacted to the ban imposed on him by football's governing body, FIFA. In a conversation with respected football journalist Colin Udoh, Siasia stated that he was unaware of FIFA's investigation and that he was not invited to defend himself.

He also vowed that he will fight to clear his name.

This issue has nothing to do with the kidnapping of Siasia's mother. Siasia's mother was kidnapped in July, while FIFA innitiated disciplinary proceedings against Siasia on February 11th.

In fact, I suspect that the incident that they were investigating occurred years ago.

The winners of this tournament doesn't qualify straight out for the Olympics?
No. The top 6 teams qualify for the African pre-Olympic qualifying tournament. The top 2 teams from that tournament will then play in the world olympic qualifying tournament.

Nigeria has qualified for the African olympic qualifying tournament.

Before opening the thread,I knew the OP would be naptu2. Good job bro...
MalI would be a very good test for D Tigress as they nearly beat us in 2017 semi final.
They tore us apart in the 4th quarter with DTigress winning by just 1 point.
Though I believe we will defeat them but will not be a stroll in the pack like the last 3 games.
Thanks bro.

Someone made the same point you made and this was D'Tigress' response.

Nigeria take on Mali, Senegal face Mozambique in #AfroBasketWomen Semi-Finals

Defending champions Nigeria will face their biggest test at this tournament when they take on a fellow title contender in Mali. Nigeria defeated Democratic Republic of Congo 79-46 in the first Quarter-Final of the day.

D'Tigress have point guard Ezinne Kalu to thank for sinking 17 points while Victoria Macaulay and captain Adaora Elonu posted 14 and 11 points in that order to give the Congolese no chance whatsoever to emerge winners. 

A 22-9 lead at the end of the first quarter showcased Nigeria's intent from the onset and the rest was history. When Nigeria realised that the Congolese guards were unable to bring down the ball comfortably on their left, they took them on a full court press which worked. 

Nigeria made a total of 18 steals scoring 35 points from Congolese turnovers to punish them but most notably experience came into play at this level with D'Tigress limiting Congolese forward Chanel Mokango to just two points. 

Ginette Mfutila and Mireille Muganza Nyota scored 15 and 10 points respectively but their efforts were far from helping the Congolese make the Semi-Finals for the first time since 1997.

How police arrested woman who locked orphan in kennel

The suspect, Onyinye


The Lagos State Police Command has arrested a woman for allegedly flogging and locking a 10-year-old orphan in a kennel.

The PUNCH learnt that the incident happened in the Surulere area of Lagos.


There had been outrage on the social media after a video went viral showing the suspect beating the boy for an unstated offence before throwing him into the kennel.

Not done, she padlocked the kennel housing some dogs and walked away, as a neighbour secretly filmed the incident.

Nigerians had called for the arrest and prosecution of the suspect, as a former spokesperson for the Zone 2 Police Command, Dolapo Badmos, promised to act on the video.

In a post on her Instagram page on Thursday, Badmos said the suspect had been apprehended.

She said, “Last week, we got the report of a lady who beat up a lad and threw him into a dungeon of dogs.

“The domestic violence response team of the Lagos State Police Command was activated. The team went into action and the lady was arrested.

“The suspect is in custody and will be charged to court. The boy who happens to be an orphan has been rescued and kept in a shelter provided by the Lagos State Government.”


The Coordinator of the Lagos State Domestic Sexual Violence Response Team, Lola Adeniyi, commended the resident who recorded the video and gave information to security agencies.

She said the suspect was traced based on the information from the mandatory reporter.

“On getting to the house, she was not around. So, we dropped a letter of invitation to her and she responded yesterday (Wednesday). She was arrested and the child taken into protective custody.



“The 10-year-old is her cousin. Apparently, the boy is an orphan and had been living with her. She claimed that he stole.

“But of course locking him in a kennel cannot be the right thing to do. It is a violation of his right has a child. He has the right to life and dignity. He should not be tortured. So, aside from the beating, he was debased as if he was a dog and that will not be allowed in Lagos. We have enshrined the Child Rights Law since 2007 and we are ensuring that the law is enforced,” Adeniyi added.

She urged Nigerians not to keep quiet when they see child abuse in their environment.

Adeniyi applauded the mandatory reporter for being a good Nigerian.

She said, “You can report anonymously so that your identity will be preserved. The most important thing is that when you see something, say something.”

The spokesperson for the Lagos State Police Command, Bala Elkana, in a statement confirmed the incident.

He identified the suspect as 24-year-old Onyinye, who lives in Aguda, Surulere.

He said, “On August 14, 2019, a team of detectives from the Gender Unit, Command’s Headquarters Ikeja, arrested Onyinye for assault and child abuse. This followed a viral video on the social media showing the suspect torturing one Chibike of same address.

“The video also showed the suspect locking the boy up in a kennel, sharing space with dogs. The video was widely condemned by well-meaning Nigerians.

“The Commissioner of Police Lagos State, CP Zubairu Muazu, ordered the Gender Unit of the command to identify the woman in the video, rescue the child and make the suspect face the full weight of the law.

“The Domestic and Sexual Response Team, Alausa, Ikeja, also added its voice to the call for investigation with a petition addressed to the Commissioner of Police to that effect.

“The Gender Unit traced the suspect to a liquor store in Surulere and her residence at Aguda. The boy was rescued and taken to a secure shelter. The suspect admitted that she was the one in the viral video flogging the child with belt, but she denied locking the survivor in a cage with dogs. That she only locked him in an empty dog kennel where bags are kept.

“She claimed to have locked up the boy for a few hours before bringing him out. She alleged that the boy took a hot drink in their refrigerator and was misbehaving. That the suspect smashed the side mirror of her Toyota Camry with stone which made her detain him in the kennel.

“Investigation revealed that the survivor lost his parents and was brought to Lagos in 2012 from Anambra State by the mother of the suspect along with his two siblings. The suspect and the survivor are cousins.

“The suspect’s mother is the elder sister of the survivor’s father. The suspect will be charged to court.”

Nigerian who locked child in dog kennel arrested

Police in Nigeria's commercial hub of Lagos have arrested a woman filmed abusing a child and then locking him in a caged kennel with dogs.

It is not clear when the footage was shot, but it went viral on Twitter earlier this month.

In the video clip, a woman is seen beating a boy, stripped to his waist, with a belt. She then drags him into an empty kennel and locks it before walking away. Two dogs can be seen in other neighbouring kennels.

The video caused outrage on social media, where shocked users offered rewards to anyone that could track down the woman.

On Thursday, a police spokesperson, Dolapo Badmos, tweeted that the woman in the video had been arrested.

"The suspect is in custody and will be charged to court... The boy, who happens to be an orphan, has been rescued and kept in a shelter provided by Lagos state government," she said.


Her tweet links to a video filmed by police showing the dog kennels where the boy was locked up:

Oshoala scores a brace against her former club as Barca defeats Arsenal 2-5.

Barcelona defeated English champions Arsenal 2-5 in a pre-season friendly at Meadow Park in Hertfordshire, England yesterday night. Asisat Oshoala scored a brace, while new Barca striker Caroline Graham Hansen provided 3 assists.


Bad start.

Barca dominated possession from the start against a very tight Arsenal defence. The cules had goal scoring opportunities for Oshoala and Alexia, but they were not able to convert their chances. In fact it was the home team that drew first blood via a powerful shot by McCabe in the 36th minute (1-0).


The reaction from Barcelona was instant, and in just one minute, the Lluís Cortés trained girls scored two goals to overturn the scoreline and go to the break with the lead. First Patri Guijarro scored (1-1, minute 44), and later Oshoala scored (1-2, minute 45) after a great assist by Graham Hansen.


Barca kept up the pressure right from the resumption of the game and Oshoala scored again 5 minutes into the second half (1-3, minute 50). Alexia had played a powerful shot at goal which was knocked out by Arsenal's goalkeeper Zinsberger, but Oshoala fired the rebound into the goal.


Barça's coach rang the changes and one of the substitutes, Claudia Pina, scored the fourth goal off another great assist by Graham (1-4 minutes 70).


Little scored from the penalty spot for Arsenal(2-4, minute 76), but even so, Barça followed with a counter attack and again Claudia Pina - with another assist from Graham - took advantage of Barca's passing game to score the final goal (2-5, minute 81).
