Sports / Leicester City Helicopter Crash: Eight Other Aviation Disasters That Hit Sports by olametrix(m): 6:12pm On Oct 30, 2018 |
HONG KONG – The death of Thai billionaire and Leicester City football club owner Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha in a helicopter crash has shocked fans, but it is not the first air accident in sport. Here are eight other aviation disasters to hit the sports world: * Manchester United Eight members of Manchester United’s celebrated ‘Busby Babes’ team were among 23 people who died when their plane crashed after attempting to take off in poor conditions in Munich on February 6, 1958. England superstar Duncan Edwards was among those killed, while Sir Bobby Charlton – who went on to win the World Cup with England – was only slightly hurt. * Manager Matt Busby recovered from serious injuries and rebuilt United into a force that would win the European Cup a decade later, in 1968. * Rocky Marciano American boxing legend Rocky Marciano was killed when his jet crashed into a tree as it was coming in to land in the US state of Iowa on August 31, 1969. Marciano, 45 when he died, was world heavyweight champion between 1952 and 1956 and retired undefeated with a 49-0 record. * Uruguay rugby team Uruguay’s Old Christians rugby team were on a plane which came down in the remote Andes mountain range on October 13, 1972. Only 16 of the 45 on board were rescued, two-and-a-half months later – during which time the starving survivors resorted to eating the frozen remains of those who died in the accident. * Zambia football team On April 27, 1993, an aircraft carrying Zambia’s national football team crashed into the sea shortly after take off from Gabon, en route to play Senegal in a World Cup qualifier, killing all 25 on board. The team was recognised as one of the strongest fielded by the African nation, having thrashed Italy 4-0 at the 1988 Olympic Games. A report into the crash, issued a decade later, blamed pilot error and an engine problem. * Matthew Harding In an incident with striking similarities to the Leicester crash, Matthew Harding, vice-chairman of Premier League football club Chelsea, died on October 22, 1996 when his helicopter came down in poor weather as he returned from a League Cup win against Bolton Wanderers Like Vichai, the popular Harding was known for his largesse and ploughed millions of pounds into his club. * Payne Stewart The flamboyant American golfer Payne Stewart was killed on October 25, 1999 after his jet lost pressure and hurtled into a field in the northern US state of South Dakota. Stewart, aged 42 when he died, had 11 PGA Tour victories and three major titles. * Russian ice hockey team A plane carrying top-tier Russian ice hockey team Lokomotiv Yaroslavl crashed due to pilot error after taking off for their first game of the 2011-2012 season in the Belarus capital, Minsk. All of the players were killed. * Chapecoense A plane carrying Brazil’s Chapecoense football team ran out of fuel and crashed in the Andes near Medellin, Colombia, on November 28, 2016. Seventy-one of the 77 people on board were killed, including 16 of the 19 players. Chapecoense were en route to play the first leg of the Copa Sudamericana final against Colombia’s Atletico Nacional. https://www.iol.co.za/sport/soccer/premier-league/leicester-city-helicopter-crash-eight-other-aviation-disasters-that-hit-sports-world-17692066 |

Politics / Bad Leaders Made Africa Poor – Lumumba by olametrix(m): 12:34pm On Oct 18, 2018 |
Renowned Kenyan Law Professor and Pan Africanist, Professor P.L.O. Lumumba, has attributed Africa’s endless challenges to the poor quality of political leadership on the continent. According to him, leaders on the continent have failed to harness the opportunities that abound on the continent to liberate their people economically. Speaking at a lecture dubbed Africa Must Arise” at the University of Cape Coast, Prof. Lumumba admonished leaders on the continent to sit up. “…We agree unanimously that the problem of Africa is simply and squarely one of leadership. We can ask ourselves what has been the impact of poor leadership in Africa and we determine for ourselves that indeed African economies continue to punch below their weight because our politics is wrong.” “We agree with Liberia’s Johnson Sirleaf that Africa is poor because it is poorly governed. Today we pose the question, what is it that has undermined African unity? And before we begin to talk about contemporary Africa we must ask ourselves where did the rain start beating us?” Nkrumah will be shocked by state of Africa now Lumumba is convinced that Ghana’s first President, Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, and other past leaders will be shocked by the state of the African continent now. He believes the state of Africa is a far cry from what Nkrumah left it to be. “I have said it before and I think they will be shocked. I think it is Nkrumah who gets it right. He recognizes as early as 1958 that the new colonial project came alive immediately the colonial project was terminated; so that the imperialists were ahead of the game always. When they came to Ghana here, there was a sense in which they did not like Nkrumah because he had a completely different agenda.” – http://citifmonline.com/2016/09/21/bad-leaders-made-africa-poor-lumumba/ |
Foreign Affairs / Africa Remains Poor Because Of Nigeria, Ex-kenya Anti-corruption Chief Says by olametrix(m): 12:07pm On Oct 18, 2018 |
The African continent has lagged behind in most facets of human development because its largest country, Nigeria, has remained in poverty due to fraudulent activities in public service, a leading anti-corruption campaigner said on Tuesday. Patrick Lumumba, a former Director of Kenya Anti-Corruption Commission, said Nigerian leaders must do everything within their capacity to address endemic graft. This, he said, would refocus Africa on the path towards prosperity. “Africa is behind because Nigeria has not realized her potential. It’s time the leaders rise up because one in every five Africans is a Nigerian.” Mr. Lumumba spoke at the two-day anti-corruption summit which began this Tuesday at the Nigerian Air Force Conference Centre in Abuja. The program is put together by the National Assembly under the leadership of Senate President Bukola Saraki and Speaker Yakubu Dogara. Mr. Lumumba, during the keynote speech, said it is time for Nigeria, and Africa as a whole, to abandon the culture of “punishing small thieves and electing big ones.” Mr. Lumumba, a professor of law, said Nigeria is a microcosm of Africa and, as such, cannot afford to keep getting it wrong. “Behavioural change culture must be instilled in Nigeria,” Mr. Lumumba said. He said Nigeria must put in place stringent mechanism that would effectively caution against corruption. The three arms of government must strengthen and not undermine the institutions that are meant to fight corruption so that Nigeria can realise its potential, Mr. Lumumba said. “People must be made to know that if you reap where you have not sown there are consequences. Men only change their behaviours when there is a threat pain.” The don called for a wholesome support for President Muhammadu Buhari in his war against corruption, especially on the need to build lasting institutions. “Institutions are the heart of the fight against corruption but he will not succeed if the legislature is not behind him and the institutions are not strengthened. “Because only institutions defy time and outlive those that live on graft. Mr. Saraki, in his opening remarks, said Nigeria had failed to seriously fight against corruption for more than 40 years. He said the National Assembly will work to partner with the Buhari administration for lasting solutions to the menace. https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/top-news/213023-africa-remains-poor-nigeria-ex-kenya-anti-corruption-chief-says.html
