What's Empire?
(This is in chronological order. I am describing the same place, but what's different is what the area was/is known for).


1) Empire Cinema: an ancient cinema in the Idi-Oro area, between Yaba and Surulere. The cinema was set up during the colonial era.


2) Empire Hotel: a hotel in the same area.


3) Fela Anikulapo-Kuti's Kalakuta Republic was in the same area until it was burnt down in 1978.


4) There are lots and lots of prostitutes operating in the area. The area has been a den of prostitution since the 1970s.

Cameroon Coach, Brian: We Are Out For Revenge Against Super Falcons

November 26, 2018 8:03 pm
By Adeboye Amosu:


https://y7r7y5g7.stackpathcdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/IMG_20181126_16529.jpg

Indomitable Lionesses of Cameroon head coach, Joseph Brian insists his team will be on a revenge mission when they face defending champions, the Super Falcons of Nigeria in their Tuesday’s semi-final clash at the the ongoing 2018 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (AWCON) at the Accra Sports Stadium, reports Completesportsnigeria.com.

Cameroon, hosts of the last Africa Women’s Nations Cup were denied the chance of winning her first title two years ago, following a 1-0 defeat to the Super Falcons in the final.

The Cameroonians also lost to the Super Falcons in the final of the 2014 edition hosted by South Africa.

But Brian has declared that his team is determined to stop the Nigerian ladies from progressing further in the tournament this time around.

“We are out for revenge. In 2014 and 2016 we weren’t good enough. Everyone knows Nigeria have beaten us a lot over the years, but we are prepared for them now,” Brian said during his pre-match press conference on Tuesday at the Accra Sports Stadium.

“We are focused on what we want to achieve that’s why we are here. We have been playing in Accra but in terms of our preparation we don’t change anything because it’s Nigeria.

“I wasn’t the coach when we lost the final in 2016 but I was in Cameroon. Now we have players who understand the game, who’ve learnt a lot. “We’ll make sure that we correct the past mistakes going into this battle to make sure that we do something extraordinary.”

“Everyone know Nigeria is a force to be reckoned with in women’s football in Africa and have won 9 times against us but one day things could change. We won’t allow our problems with bonuses to affect us. Our motivation as good citizens is to do our job and not wait for d government.”

Cameroon finished top of Group A with seven points ahead of Mali, hosts Ghana and Algeria to seal a spot in the semi-finals.

The winner of the match is guaranteed a place in the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup in France.

Super Falcons forward Ngozi Okobi has expressed her confidence ahead of Tuesday’s AWCON 2018 semifinals clash with rivals Cameroon.

The 24-year-old said they are looking forward to Tuesday’s clash with absolute confidence.

Okobi stated that Cameroon will not be a threat to Nigeria’s quest to win the 2018 Africa women cup of nations while stressing that the team has struck it rhythm after back to back wins.


“Nothing will stop the girls from this point from going all the way against anyone.

“Not even Cameroon, they are not enough threat to Nigeria”, Okobi stated.

The Super Falcons will on Tuesday take on rivals Cameroon in a repeat of the 2016 AWCON Finals.

1)Gaelle Deborah Enganamouit

www.nairaland.com/attachments/6506504_gaelle_jpeg201254add213e92c4211a0e4a3892268

The Lioness of Cameroon, Gaelle Deborah Enganamouit was the 2015 African Women's Player of the Year. She was also the highest goal scorer in the Swedish league in 2015. She is reputed to have scored the fastest goal in women's football history when she scored a goal just 2 seconds into a match in the Serbian League.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y1wIRtdNPE0
Gaelle Enganamouit of Cameroon scores one of the fastest goals in women football after just 3 seconds. She was playing for Spartak Subotica against Pozarevac in the Serbian League in 2012.


She suffered an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury in the first game of the 2016 Swedish league season that ruled her out for the rest of the season.

Highest goal scorer in the Swedish League (2015)

However, Cameroon hosted the 2016 AWCON and they were desperate to get their star striker fit for the tournament. Many people believe that the Cameroonians featured her before she was back to full fitness and she was a shadow of herself. She didn't score a single goal, but she was the perfect decoy for Gabrielle Aboudi Onguene as she always drew defenders away from Aboudi Onguene.

She moved to Dalian in the Chinese league in 2017 (Asisat Oshoala was her team mate), but she was plagued by injuries during her stay at Dalian.

She moved to Norway in 2018 where she finally found her scoring form again. She scored in Cameroon's 3-0 victory over Algeria in the group stage of this Nations Cup.

Enganamouit was one of the stars of the 2015 World Cup in Canada, scoring a hat trick in the 6-0 demolition of Ecuador. Canadians nicknamed her the "Freight Train" due to her power and pace.

Desire Oparanozie is Nigeria’s top 9. She’s like the female Rashidi Yekini. She was the highest goal scorer at the 2014 AWCON in Namibia. She might have been the highest goal scorer at the 2016 AWCON, but she got injured during the tournament. She came back in time to score a free kick goal against South Africa in the semi-final. She scored the only goal in the final that won Nigeria the 2016 AWCON.

[img]http://naijachronicles.files./2018/10/oparanozie2.jpg?w=584[/img]

Oparanozie has also scored fantastic goals for her French club Guingamp.

Desire Oparanozie's long range goal against Paris FC has been voted the goal of the month for February by readers of international women's football website Women's Soccer United.

Here's a video of the goal.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaI0CzBQkYY


Desire Oparanozie scored twice in EA Guingamp’s 3-1 victory over Paris FC on February 17th, 2018. She bulldozed her way through the Paris defence to score Guingamp’s equaliser in the 27th minute and in the 89th minute Oparanozie scored from the centre circle to give Guingamp a 3-1 victory.

Here are highlight videos of the match.

Oshoala vs. Enganamouit - the battle between good friends


Asisat Oshoala is the 2014, 2016 and 2017 African Women's Player of the Year, while Gaelle Deborah Enganamouit is the 2015 African Player of the Year. Both players moved from Europe to Dalian Quanjian FC in the Chinese Women's Super League in 2017.

Gaelle Enganamouit and Asisat Oshoala at Dalian

However, while Oshoala has been successful in China, Enganamouit did not have such an easy time there. Enganamouit suffered a season ending injury at the beginning of the 2016 season and many people believe that Cameroon rushed her back to their starting 11 when she had not totally recovered. Cameroon hosted the 2016 Nations Cup and they were determined to win the competition, so they desperately needed their star striker. Enganamouit was a shadow of herself at the competition and she did not score a single goal. She also suffered from injury worries at Dalian and had to return to Europe for the 2018 season, where she has finally regained her scoring form.

Asisat Oshoala and Gaelle Enganamouit became very good friends while they were in China and this match will see the two good friends squaring up against each other.

Sports › Cameroon Vs. Nigeria: 2018 AWCON Semi-Final - 2 - 4 - Penalties (Full Time) by naptu2(op): 6:25am On Nov 26, 2018
Nigeria takes on Cameroon at 4:30 on Tuesday, November 27th, 2018 in the semi-final of the 2018 African Women’s Cup of Nations (AWCON). Many people view this match as the final before the final because these two teams have played 4 AWCON finals against each other and they are considered as the two best sides in African women’s football.

Nigeria has defeated Cameroon in the finals of 4 African Women’s Championships/African Women’s Nations Cup. Nigeria defeated Cameroon 2-0 at the National Stadium in Lagos in the first leg of the 1991 championship final and went on to defeat Cameroon 0-4 in the second leg at the Ahmadou Ahidjo Stadium in Yaounde.

Four goals by Perpetua Nkwocha and a further goal by Vera Okolo (one of my favourite players) ensured that Nigeria defeated Cameroon 5-0 in the final of the 2004 championship in South Africa. It was a very physical match (I felt that the Cameroonians were trying to kill the Falcons on the pitch).

Nigeria defeated Cameroon 2-0 in the final of the 2014 African Women’s Championship in Namibia.

Desire Oparanozie (freekick) and Asisat Oshoala score as the Super Falcons of Nigeria beat Cameroon to win the 2014 African Women's Cup of Nations in Namibia.

Watch out for Gaelle Enganamouit's amazing shot that hit the crossbar.

Nigeria also defeated Cameroon in the final of the 2016 Nations Cup in Cameroon. A single goal by Desire Oparanozie gave victory to Nigeria.

Politics › NTA Responds To Allegation That It Did Not Broadcast Atiku's Event by naptu2(op):
Below is a transcription of the NTA video (for those that cannot watch the video).

RE- NTA Refuses to Broadcast Atiku’s AUN Founder’s Day

The Nigerian Television Authority has stated that it could not broadcast the 13th anniversary of the American University of Nigeria (AUN) because of technical issues. The NTA had been paid to broadcast the event live.

The Atiku Media Office had earlier said that the Presidency instructed the NTA not to broadcast the event. AUN is owned by Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, who is the PDP presidential candidate for the 2019 election.

The NTA said that it had mobilised its outside broadcast (OB) crew from Jos to Yola to broadcast the event. The OB crew got to the venue on time and carried out uplink and downlink tests which showed that everything was in good working order. However, 3 hours before the start of the event, the domestic satellite station (DOMSAT) at NTA headquarters called to say that they were not receiving signals from Yola. The OB crew at Yola were sending out signals, but the signals were not being received by NTA's DOMSAT station in Abuja.

NTA investigation showed that the fault was from the NTA’s satellite service provider, INTELSAT. A report of the problem has been sent to INTELSAT.

It should be noted that the NTA transmitted the AUN event after the problem was overcome.

He has often stated that he doesn't have a social media account, but some Nairalanders keep creating threads with content from those fake accounts.


naptu2:
He has repeatedly said that he has no Twitter or Facebook account. There are several people on social media that are impersonating him. Some of those accounts have been shut down, but new ones are springing up everyday.


I have no Facebook, Twitter accounts — Obasanjo

February 24, 2015⁠⁠ Dimeji Kayode-Adedeji

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo on Monday said social media accounts bearing his name are not his as he is not on any social media platform.

Mr. Obasanjo, while speaking with journalists at his Hilltop Private residence in Abeokuta, reacted to a twitter account, @newsvergeonline linked to his name.

@newsvergeonline had claimed that the former President described the Director of Media and Publicity of the Peoples Democratic Party Presidential Campaign Organisation, Femi Fani-Kayode, as a “democracy wrecker.”

“Fani-Kayode is a democracy wrecker, who’s very fluent in stupidity. Give him food, and he will sing and do “shoki” dance for you,” the tweet read.

Mr. Obasanjo described the social media account as fake being operated by fraudsters.

“I don’t know where this came from. I don’t have any account on either Facebook or Twitter,” Mr. Obasanjo said.

The former President warned those using his name to operate illegal social media accounts to desist, saying he has alerted security agencies to fish out perpetrators.

“Let me say that nemesis will catch up with anyone doing this,” Mr. Obasanjo said. “It is illegal and criminal. If I have to pass any message to the good people of Nigeria, I know how to go about it with no controversy.”

naptu2:
How does that link prove that it is his Twitter account? He has repeatedly said that he is not on twitter, Facebook and instagram and he has threatened to have those who are masquerading as him prosecuted.

Therefore, it's false and misleading information to present that handle as his.
Read this link.
