Chelsea 21-year old-defender, Fikayo Tomori, who is of Nigerian descent in a latest statement has opened up on the reason he didn’t join the Super Eagles as he stated that he didn’t receive any invite from Nigerian Football Federation NFF.

This is contrary to the belief of members of the public, who were disappointed over Tomori opting to play for England in the 2020 Euro Qualifiers over Nigeria.

The Blues defender revealed he still loves Nigeria.

“ It was a difficult choice for me. It was something I had to think about for a year or two and I was previously at the U-21 Euros, so I wasn’t thinking too far ahead, but then there was a lot of talk and questions and I had to make a decision ,” he told Omasports.

England called me up in September, and I didn’t get a call up from anyone when they called me up, it was hard to say no to them.”

He is still eligible to play for Nigeria and could join the likes of Alex Iwobi and Victor Moses, who at one time played for England at the Youth Level before joining the Nigerian Senior team.

The Minister of State, Labour and Employment, Festus Keyamo, who is also a Senior Advocate of Nigeria SAN has called for disciplinary actions against Lawyers that try to blackmail the Supreme Court into taking decision in their interest.

Keyamo made this known after the Supreme Court accused the CUPP of engaging in campaign calumny.

He wrote in a tweet, "Enough is enough. The legal profession is still regulated by the highest ethical standards. If any lawyer is found to be amongst those who consciously seek to blackmail the S/Court by threats or wild & unsubstantiated accusations, he/she must be dragged before disciplinary bodies.''

Keyamo also stressed that there should be punishment for those who are not legal practitioners but also seeking to blackmail the Supreme Court.

The Minister wrote, ''For those who’re not lawyers who publicly seek to blackmail the S/Court to do the bidding of their own political party, for their own selfish interest & in the guise of seeking for their subjective justice, the law regarding contempt of court would be FULLY activated against them."

Two Asian countries, North Korea and South Korea, who are still technically at war, will on Tuesday go head to head as they seek to qualify for the 2022 World Cup Qualifier in Qatar.

According to the records, this will be the first football derby between the two countries since 1990.

And as it used to be the case the past, the match was either played in South Korea or a third country but this time around it would take place in North Korea capital, Pyongyang.

The strange part of it is that the match will not be broadcast live and also there will be no fan from South Korea, and no foreign media in the stands, according to BBC.

"Football is the most popular spectator sport in North Korea and sports are hugely important for the North," Andray Abrahamian, Senior Adjunct Fellow at the Pacific Forum, told the BBC.

"It provides a focal point for pride and patriotism. In a sense, it's pretty similar to how other countries use sports for social purposes"

Seyi Law on his part wrote on the cost and demands of hosting an event in the country without sponsorship drive up ticket pricing.

He wrote on Instagram, "Thanks @alibabagcfr for constantly trying to educate people about the efforts of entertainers and events management practitioners. 
I can't write the epistle needed to drive home this point. The cost and class demands of the events in Nigeria without sponsorship drive up ticket pricing. These and more are the reasons we are constantly grateful to media houses that oblige us their platforms for advertising. Now, AFCON is encroaching into that territory to frustrate our efforts. 
What is the government doing to encourage these businesses that create 100 to 200 direct and indirect jobs per show? Make I leave the matter for now. I am looking for sponsors for my Abuja show abeg."

The Nigerian Football Federation NFF on Friday denied the rumours making rounds that the body is owing expatriate coaches Gernot Rohr and Thomas Dennerby three months salaries.

Rohr is only owed salary for September while Dennerby has tendered his resignation letter, according to the NFF.

The Football body further disclosed that it gave Dennerby all the support he needed but they disagreed on his request to bring in more expatriate coaches which was one of the reasons why he resigned.

Below is the full statement released by the NFF,

NFF explains Rohr, Dennerby situations The NFF wishes to put records straight with regards to a claim in the social media on Friday, 11th October 2019 that the football house is owing Super Eagles’ Technical Adviser, Gernot Rohr, three months’ salary. 

As we speak, Mr. Rohr is only being owed salary for the month of September 2019, which is being processed. As for Mr. Thomas Dennerby, we have received his resignation letter and of course, he has his right to resign from a job.

We want to put it on record that no Head Coach in the history of the Super Falcons has been afforded the level and readiness of support that has been provided Mr. Dennerby by this Board.

Perhaps, one of the reasons he left was because we did not accede to his request to bring in more expatriate coaches and an indigenous coach who do not have the required license.

If we had agreed to his request for more expatriate coaches, that would have left our indigenous coaches presently with the team in the lurch.
