Sports / PSG Give Barcelona Condition On Neymar's Deal by Nwasoprince: 1:58pm On Aug 01, 2019
Paris Saint-Germain have set the price for Neymar, with the French club demanding €300m (£273m), according to L’Equipe.

The Brazil superstar has been the subject of transfer speculations all summer, with the Spanish giants keen on bringing him back to the Camp Nou.

Neymar is under contract until 2022, giving the French side plenty of leverage in negotiations.

With PSG demanding €78m more than they paid for the 27-year-old two summers ago, Barca may now end their chase of the forward.

An ex-board member, Toni Freixa, has said bringing Neymar back would not be in the club’s best interest.

Wrestling fans, rejoice - it's time to pit virtual, sweaty men and women against each other once and for all.

Yes, WWE 2K20 marks the franchise's return to the ring, and while we don't have any details just yet, we do have two sumptuous screenshots showing just two of what we expect to be a roster larger than Braun Strowman's chest

In anticipation of the game's full reveal on the 5th of August (less than a week to go), we've got our first glimpses of hug-obsessed superstar Bayley and neckless wonder Brock Lesnar.

Marvel for yourself in the images above and below - Brock has the kind of face you'd just love to slap with a steel chair, hasn't he?

We also get a look at Bayley (the current SmackDown Women's Champion) as she begins her walk out.

WWE 2K19 was considered a considerable improvement for the long-running franchise, offering a much-improved progression system and a great career mode storyline that didn't take itself too seriously.

Sports / Five Nigerian Footballers To Make A Sensible Transfer Decision by Nwasoprince: 1:18pm On Aug 01, 2019
In the words of one of football’s most powerful agent, Mino Raiola, “You have to go to the club that needs you. And the player has to need the club in return.”


Chukwueze justifies the hype but needs wisdom

The hype about Samuel Chukwueze is real. If there were doubters, a good showing in Egypt would have dispelled that. The AFCON bronze medallist was on Tuesday, July 30, revealed as one of the 50 youngsters to watch in world football by UEFA’s official website, with a worth of about $33 million. Titled: 50 for the future: UEFA.com’s ones to watch in 2019/20; Chukwueze, 20 was described as a “Precocious winger with UEFA Europa League experience; the Nigeria Football Federation’s young player of the year for 2017/18.”

Should the young man stay with Villarreal and continue to clock up the minutes or move to a higher-placed side and bide his time?

Onyekuru must find a ‘home’

Henry Onyekuru’s potential is undoubted but having yet to find a ‘home’ and not just a house, he must not allow the projected to become the desired.

With Moise Kean on Everton’s doorsteps, the 22-year-old Nigerian needs to make the important decision that may make or mar his future market value. Valued at $14.5 million by Transfermarkt.com, Sky Sports is reporting interest from Ligue 1’s Monaco. But would that be his best move?

Onyekuru cost Everton $8.5 million from KAS Eupen in 2017, but could not get a work permit to play in the English Premier League. The French League is a step higher than the Turkish League though the pay may not be better. Onyekuru must now make the decision on what would birth a better future for his nascent career.

The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has faulted the appointment of a former Vice Chancellor of Kwara State University (KWASU), Prof Abdulrasheed Na’allah, as Vice Chancellor of University of Abuja (UNIABUJA) by President Muhammadu Buhari.

The union said appointing Na’allah, who was allegedly indicted by a visitation panel, would make a mockery of the government’s fight against corruption.

In a statement jointly signed by its University of Ibadan (UI) Chairman, Prof Deji Omole, and the Ibadan Zonal Coordinator, Dr Ade Adejumo, the union recalled that Na’allah had been indicted by the visitation panel under former Governor Abdulfattah Ahmed.

Politics / We'll Not Take It Anymore, Nigerians Tells South African Government by Nwasoprince: 8:48am On Jul 16, 2019
Ahmed Lawan made his dissatisfaction known when he hosted Mr. Bobby Moroe, South African High Commissioner to Nigeria, while also asserting that the country would no longer condone the incessant killings of its citizens.

Moore visited Lawan to brief the Senate on the ongoing investigation to unravel and end xenophobic attacks on Nigerians by South Africans.

Most recent is the killing of Mrs. Elizabeth Chukwu. Late Chukwu was killed in her hotel room in South Africa when she went for a conference of the African Insurance Organisation (AIO).

Records show that about 118 Nigerians had so far lost their lives in different attacks over the years, out of which 13 Nigerians were killed by the South African police.

The senate president in a statement by Mohammed Isa, his Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, stated that if the South African government failed to address these killings, it could degenerate into massive violence.

He said, “We in the parliament must speak and prevent any further killings. These killings must stop.

“This is the era of social media where the corpse of a victim may spark violence that may go beyond the control of the government.

“The South African government must as a matter of urgency do whatever it takes to protect the lives and property of Nigerians living there, just as Nigerian government remain committed to the safety of South Africans residing here and their investments.

“I believe we have faced enough. We will no longer take it anymore. We want to write the names of Nigerians killed, and the South African parliament must act fast to put a stop to this menace.

“Over the years, 118 Nigerians have been killed, while 13 out of these were killed by South African Police.”

“We must establish events leading into these killings, including the recent one of Mrs.Elizabeth Chukwu, who was killed in her hotel room.”

Lawan urged the South African government to ensure that lives and properties of Nigerians are safe while reminding the country of the enormous contributions of Nigeria to South Africa during the apartheid rule.

Politics / Ohanaeze Ndigbo Urge Igbo's Living Outside The State To Defend Themselves by Nwasoprince: 8:35am On Jul 05, 2019
The Ohanaeze Ndigbo group has urged its members residing outside the south-east to defend themselves, following the ultimatum given to governors by some northern groups angered by their refusal to implement the Ruga settlement initiative for herdsmen.

In a statement issued by its president general, John Nnia Nwodo on Thursday, July 4, the apex Igbo group called on Ndigbo to be ready to defend themselves wherever they are, The Nation reports.

gathers that the statement read: “My attention has been drawn to a broadcast by Abdul Azeez Suleman, speaking for a Coalition of Northern Groups in which he had the audacity to give the federal government an ultimatum of 30 days to rescind its decision on the suspension of its Ruga settlements policy.

“Abdul went further to threaten the expulsion of southerners resident in the North at the expiration of his dateline if the federal government does not rescind its suspension decision.

“This irresponsible, unlawful and provocative outburst reminds me of the quit notice from northern youths two years ago.

“Ohanaeze insists that the Ruga policy is an Islamisation and Fulanisation policy. It is a violation of our constitution and Supreme Court decisions on the Land Use Act. Its suspension without cancellation leaves the federal government still in violation of our laws.

“The threat to evict law abiding Nigerians from their places of abode in Northern Nigeria is treasonable and obviously like the gun trotting herdsmen will go unnoticed by our federally-controlled law enforcement agencies.

“Let Abdul, the federal government and others like them take notice that Ohanaeze has no objections to all Igbo in the North returning home so long as all northerners in the East leave the East and we dismantle the federal structure imposed on us by the military and return to autonomous federating units.

“The nepotism exhibited by this federal government, her duplicity of standards in law enforcement, her undisguised Fulanisation policy is repugnant to rule of law and good governance. We will no longer tolerate any further threats from these northern war mongers.

“After all, who should be the aggrieved under the circumstance? The millipede that has been marched is whimpering, but the person that marched it is complaining that his foot has been soiled.

“The South that is bearing the yoke of oppression from cattle herders are trying their best to co-exist with their aggressors, yet it is the aggressors that are threatening further mayhem. This cannot be. I call on all Igbo to be ready to defend themselves; enough of these threats!”

the federal government's Ruga settlement plan were on Wednesday, July 3, given not more than one month by some northern groups to reconsider and accept the initiative.

Abdul-Azeez Suleiman, the spokesman of the groups, said that varying positions of governors on the policy had brought about much dissatisfaction among herdsmen in the country.

Suleiman said: “While we warn all state governments that stand against the implementation of the RUGA Initiative to desist and give peace a chance, we place President Buhari and the federal government on notice that they must completely stop this raging madness within 30-days beginning from today, Wednesday."

Politics / Ruga Settlement: Giving Them Our Land is like Shopping. by Nwasoprince: 3:29pm On Jul 02, 2019
The group made its position known in a statement signed by Yinka Odumakin (South West), Chigozie Ogbu (South East), Senator Bassey Henshaw (South South), Dr. Isuwa Dogo (Middle Belt).

The statement read, "The attention of the Southern and Middle Belt Leaders has been drawn to a statement by the Presidency through Mallam Garuba Shehu on the contentious issue of Ruga settlements for Fulani herdsmen across the country.

"While most of the statement was full of sound fury signifying nothing, we are particularly interested in two claims in the statement. It is true that government at the centre has gazetted lands in all states of the federation but because the idea is not to force this programme on anyone, the government has limited the take-off to the dozen states with valid requests.

"We are interested in having the gazette number and its content as we know per the constitution and laws of the country that all lands in each state of the federation is vested in the governor. In what capacity and with which authority did the federal government gazette lands in all states of Nigeria?

"This Freudian slip from the Presidency signposts a dangerous sign of deployment of federal might to overawe the federating units in a desperate bid to promote the interest of one ethnic group over those of over 350 other ethnic nationalities across Nigeria.

Food / Side Effects And Benefits Of Drinking Garri You Don't Know by Nwasoprince: 8:21am On Jul 02, 2019
Garri is a good food and even has more nutritional benefits than eating rice. Soups made with palm oils and vegetables are the best to use with garri. Soaking and drinking garri may not give you the balanced diet that you require, so therefore, it is not advisable to drink gari alone. Soaking of gari in water is not a sufficient meal and too much of this can have a health effect on your vision. Garri is best taken in the busy hour of the day like in the afternoon to replenish lost energy and to allow burning more energy. Diabetes sufferers should avoid taking garri because it is a rich source of sugar for the body, but if they still want to, they should just reduce the quantity of garri they consume. Drinking gari during pregnancy is also frowned upon.

From Kebbi state, it was gathered that Mr. Abubakar Malami, immediate past attorney general of the federation and minister of justice, who is one of the five members of the kitchen cabinet of the president, is likely to be re-appointed back.

There were hints that President Buhari may retain Mr. Hadi Sirika, the immediate past minister of state for aviation, who is from his home state of Katsina.

Also, Adamawa state’s representative in the last cabinet and immediate past minister of the FCT, Mr. Mohammed Musa Bello, may make the list, as the factors that necessitated his appointment earlier have not changed.

The two female ministers representing Kaduna and Sokoto states are believed to have got favourable consideration for the new cabinet. There are similarities in the factors which necessitated the appointment of the FCT minister and the two female ministers.

Immediate past minister of Interior, Lieutenant General Abdulrahman Dambazau, from Kano state, who is a strong political associate of President Buhari, may also have made the list.

Food / Avoid This Foods,the Cause Cancer by Nwasoprince: 8:55am On Jul 01, 2019
Medical experts have therefore warned against eating some foods or snacks that can cause cancer or increase the risk of getting it.



Below are list of some of the foods:



1. Grilled red meat



Doctors and other experts often advise that we limit the amount of red meat we take. Reducing our intake of fatty red meat to a few servings in a week will significantly reduce your risk of getting cancer.



According to them, foods that have been cooked at high temperatures produce acrylamide which is a known carcinogen. Meat that’s been prepared on the grill also takes unhealthy stuff from either the grill or the wood. It is therefore worth reducing your intake of meat and choosing organic foods instead. Just don’t overcook the organic foods.



2. Soft drinks



Soft drinks are high in sugar in fructose corn syrup form, which is the most challenging form for your body to handle. Just a single can has a full day’s worth of sugar. It makes your blood sugar rise significantly but doesn’t leave you feeling full.



If a good drink is what you want, choose sparkling water instead, with a splash of fruit juice.



3. Canned foods especially tomatoes



The thing with canned foods is that they contain a lot of added salt, while fruits are canned in sugar syrup. This in addition to the fact that the cans have a chemical lining makes things worse.



The chemical is called BPA which leaches into the food that comes into some kind of contact with it. BPA is a hormone disrupter which has also been linked to cancer.



Instead of going for canned foods, it’s better to eat fresh produce or look for cans that do not contain so much sodium or those labeled BPA free.



4. Microwave popcorn



Generally, popcorn is a healthy snack.
But the problem is

On Facebook, the poll had only Olusegun Obasanjo and Muhammadu Buhari.



The poll had a total of 28,000 votes on Twitter and 49,000 votes on Facebook. The two polls unilaterally produced President Buhari as the winner with a wide margin between him and next person on the poll.

Of the 49,000 votes on SaharaReporters' Facebook poll, President Buhari had the highest number of votes as the worst president the country has ever produced since the advent of democracy in 1999 with 29,000 votes.



On the other hand, ex-president Obasanjo had a total vote of 20,000.







Some Facebook users gave reasons for their vote.



Ayodele Oluwafemi said, “Who is PMB to even compare him with Obj in the committee of superpowers? It's such a shameful thing to do. Haba! What contribution did PMB make to Nigeria except take an appointment of a tyrant like him as PDTF Chairman.”



Jude Ola said, “Buhari is a disaster to Nigeria... in fact the meaning of Buhari is poverty and bad luck... it shall never be well with the generations of those who impose Buhari to us... I came home last year for vacation, I spend two week and I'm in haste to go back to another man's land where I found peace of mind.”



Iyke Eze stated, “The difference is very clear, never you compare a failure to OBJ.”



John Goodluck said, “Buhari is the worst president that ever happened to Nigeria, he is a cow that keeps on blaming his parents for his failure in life.”



Sotunde Olasile M. Samuel, “I think many people here don't know that OBJ had the greatest opportunity to put Nigeria on the right track, out of selfish interest, he didn't. Now, he created, raised and opened the eyes of this thieves and many are expecting someone who met corrupted blueprints to do wonders, hhhhmmmm, how I wish. #LetCallOnGod. #Naija.”



Of the 28,000 social media users that voted on the Twitter poll, 68% voted for President Buhari while Jonathan, his predecessor, had 22% of votes.
