Super Falcons goalkeeper Chiamaka Nnadozie saves 5th penalty in 8 UWCL matches
Super Falcons goalkeeper Chiamaka Nnadozie was the Saviour for Paris FC Women in the UEFA Women's Champions League against BK Hacken.
Nigerian goalkeeping sensation Chiamaka Nnadozie was the heroine again as she saved a penalty to keep Paris FC Feminines’ UEFA Women's Champions League hopes alive.
Nnadozie proved to be the decisive difference maker as the French side held their hosts BK Hacken at home on Wednesday night.
Nnadozie shines for Paris again
The 22-year-old proved why she is the current African goalkeeper of the year with another sensational outing for her club as they remain on course for a place for the next round heading into the final game of the group stage.
Nnadozie denied Rosa Kafaji from 12 yards in the 21st minute in what was her fifth spot-kick save in just eight matches in the Women’s Champions League.
She made two saves against English giants Arsenal Women, and stopped another one against last season's finalists, Wolfsburg before pulling off a fourth save against Liga F giants Real Madrid.
The Super Falcons star’s latest heroics also included six saves, 17 recoveries and 46 touches against Hacken.
Her incredible penalty record has made her one of the most feared keepers in women's football. Nnadozie shootout sorcery leaves opponents dreading stepping up to face her and preserved a precious point for her French side on their European adventure.
With the Super Falcon pulling her weight behind the sticks, Paris go into the last game against Chelsea Women still in contention of a place in the quarterfinal.
BALLOSKI: You people won't stop this your victim chant and supporting criminals from your tribe. Until Yellow is caught, no other criminal should be held.
You people said he's not even a criminal, but he's in a vehicle they stole and the victim kidnapped. His sister had the guts to come out and defend him. Why do you people support criminals of your own kind?
The sister story was a fake story that was made up by some people to try to discredit the police. The picture that they used to represent the sister was stolen from the internet.
I’m not a kidnapper, but an armed robber, says Abuja notorious kidnapper
Suspected notorious Abuja kidnapper, Chinaza Philip-Okoye, has claimed that he’s an armed robber and not a kidnapper.
Chinaza claimed during an interview with reporters on Wednesday during a parade of criminal suspects at the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Police command.
He narrated the incident that led to his arrest by the police while noting his connection with other members of the gang who are still at large.
He said: “I want to categorically state that I’m not a kidnapper, I am not a kidnapper. We only patrol at night and collect cars, and we take them to Kano for sale.
“That night, our aim was to rob the man and take his car, but I was surprised that after we collected his car, yellow who is like our leader, asked the man to enter the back of the car. I didn’t know why he did that, and I couldn’t argue with him, so we were driving to Kano before the police caught up with us in Kaduna where I was arrested.”
The Nigeria Police Force had on Saturday, paraded Chinaza Philip-Okoye on a stretcher at the Force Intelligence Response Team base, Guzape, Federal Capital Territory.
It was gathered that the suspect sustained serious injuries after he was shot by police officers following the interception of his gang at a fueling station on Thursday night.
Governor of Lagos State, Mr @jidesanwoolu today received the United States Secretary of State, Mr Antony Blinken @SecBlinken at the Presidential Wing, Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Ikeja, Lagos.
Update. A slightly long thread, so i can go back to tweeting about Simi.
Someone i know who also knows @GRVlagos reached out and arranged a call a few minutes ago. On the call was GRV, his media manager, myself and the mediator.
The media manager started by apologizing.
Then @GRVlagos came on and said he wanted the matter resolved and he would pay the money before today ends.
I said no problem, but I asked @GRVlagos why @IfyAniebo refused to pay me.
The reason given was: She felt unhappy with the work I had done.
I made it clear that it was both a lie and a wicked thing to say and there the matter closed.
I will be expecting my payment as promised and once i receive I will update this thread with a screenshot.
Now a few things:
1. She was owing me and the money was in her account, I asked her to pay my IHS fee and WES. This was not money dashed or given, it was MY MONEY, she helped make the payment.
2. I believe in the work @afroscientric was doing and will continue to do, and i wish them success.
Thanks to everyone, friends, strangers and acquaintances for raising your voice. When you need help, I hope people will raise their voice for you too.
Fin.
I have received payment from @GRVlagos. Screenshot here.
I have spoken to Chika and extended an olive branch in acknowledgement of an episode that I hope we can put behind us and look to better days ahead.
I believe this episode to have been an exception, rather than the norm, at least considering the context.
The situation has been rectified and his due paid. I also want to express my gratitude to everyone who offered their support in de-escalating this situation. I thank Chika for his understanding and willingness to move forward and also thank him for his support during the campaigns. 🙏🏾
I am aware of the statements made by a former staff engaged to render services to Afroscientric. Rest assured, i take this matter seriously and i’m actively addressing it to ensure a timely resolution.
It's important to note that the recent tweets do not accurately reflect my character and the reputation i’ve worked hard to cultivate over the years.
Afroscientric started in 2016 because we sought to bridge the gap that kept young African women from getting into science. Our main aim was to pass on unique skills and knowledge to the next generation of young African women. Thankfully, and with the support of many organizations and well meaning individuals, we’ve been achieving this objective.
I’m committed to transparency and fairness, and i appreciate the understanding extended to me as i work towards resolving this issue.
Actually this DO story has given me the go ahead to call out someone who is owing me money. Let me wrap my head around the fuckery and i'll put out a long thread.
Zendaya is older than me @chika_jones
Okay let’s do this.
Sometime I think in 2019, I started working for @IfyAniebo as several things including a writer and social media manager on this project - https://afroscientric.com
Not long after I realized that getting paid on time was a problem. The salary was delayed sometimes for months. If you look at the dates in the screenshots below, you’ll see me asking for payments well after the end of the month.
I didn’t consider it a big issue.
Sometime in May 2020, Ify complained that I was not doing enough on the work. And that for a particular month, she would only pay some part of the salary not the full thing. I agreed. Even that money I did not get till months later.
Because of the complaint, I increased my efforts even beginning a regular Instagram Live series on women in STEM. Ify praised the work but the issues with payments continued.
This continued till January 2021, when @IfyAniebo got a project from Nature (the journal). And said I would work on it as project manager among other things. Because of the size of the project, she also said I would be paid separately for my monthly 80,000 Naira at the time.
We got the project from Nature and I can confidently say I did 70% of the work on that project. Ify was busy and so I took it on and I was happy to.
Invoicing, website design, leading meetings. I did it all.
When the work was done, and Ify received the money in her account I got the first hint of trouble in this chat. She was essentially going back on the agreement.
I stood my ground and reminded her, then I did a breakdown so it was clear. You can see the breakdown and her response here. And she even promised a bonus on the work done during the project.
We are now at December 2021, I start following up for the money owed because I needed it. Ify assures me she will pay but there are issues with her account and she was also sick as seen here.
From December 2021 till May 2022, I do not ask for the money. In May 2022 I reach out again.
This time she says I am bombarding her so she will not pay it.
I tell her I will have to resort to other means to get my money and she says do your worst I will not pay.
That’s the story. What @IfyAniebo was saying was, I am owing you, but because you are disturbing me I will not pay you.
She told me she was a bridge I dared not burn, she was essentially saying she was more than me. And nothing would happen.
The truth is no one is above another person. I tried to reach out to her husband @GRVlagos but never got a response, probably because he never got the messages.
My ask is clear - @IfyAniebo You are owing me 778 pounds. It is money I worked for. You are not more than me. Pay me.
