This is a formidable squad that is good enough to clinch a spot at the Olympics. I’m also impressed that Coach Hughley and the NBBF released the list 2 months ahead of the tournament.

I learnt the cup tie nonsense has been reviewed by UEFA and no longer in existence anymore.

Minamino can now play Liverpool in their knockout Ucl stages. Meaning Ziyech can also feature for us in r16 games
Oshey!! Now, I will support efforts to buy Ziyech, Haagerland, and even Lautaro Martinez cheesy

Liverpool is about to sign Minimano of Salzburg... Na the kind player we supposed to sign be this... No be that mumu Zaha the media is linking us with.
I'll prefer Zaha because he won't be cup-tied, unlike the Salzburg player.

I repeat Trump would have had more sympathy in this impeachment brouhaha if he didn’t block the likes of Mulvaney, Giuliani, Meghan etc. If you are innocent, you lay your case with all transparency

Andrew Yang becomes the 7th candidate to qualify for the December 19 debate. Kamala Harris had earlier qualified, but since she dropped out from the race, its very likely that there would be only 7 candidates on the debate stage.

Remember the Round of 16 draw comes up on Monday at 11AM GMT.

It’s like the same madness that is afflicting LAX in Los Angeles, has afflicted FAAN. The LAX authorities also banned Uber and Lyft from picking up/dropping off passengers from the curbside of the terminals.

BusinessCourt Orders Seizure Of Emirates Aircraft Over N8.1 Million Judgment Debt by PDPGuy(op): 9:13pm On Dec 05, 2019
A Federal High Court sitting in Lagos has ordered the siezure of an aircraft belonging to Emirates Airline over N8.1 million judgment debt. The order was sequel to a motion filed by Dr Charles Mekwunye seeking for the enforcement of a Supreme Court judgment in a suit between Promise Mekwunye and the airline.

Granting the reliefs sought by Mekwunye, Justice Mohammed Liman, held, “It is accordingly ordered that an attachment is hereby issued on the judgment debtor’s aircraft registered as ‘A6 Aircraft Type 77W EK: 783/784’, or any other aircraft belonging to the judgment debtor which flies into Nigeria Territory, to be arrested and detained until the judgment debt is fully paid: in default after 30 days, the aircraft shall be auctioned to satisfy the judgment debt.” The judge also ordered that Emirates Airline shall bear the cost of maintainance and custody of the detained aircraft.

The matter stems from a ticket purchased in 2007 for $2,067 USD to enable Miss Promise Mekwunye to travel from Dallas – Houston – Dubai – Lagos and back. The ticket was confirmed more than three times before Mekwunye’s travel date on 17th December 2007.

On the day of her flight, Mekwunye showed up at the airport but was denied boarding without being given any reason for the denial. The filings state “she was merely told that the ticket had been canceled”. From here, no alternative plans nor accommodation were arranged by the airline. Mekwunye sought assistance from her father, who assisted her in purchasing another flight going out the next day. The flight was with a different airline using a longer route via London. The cost of this was US$3,200.

The matter was taken to court and in 2010 this is what the court had to say: “[Emirates] refusal to carry the (Appellant) from Dallas on the 17th December, 2007 amounts to a breach of contract of carriage with (her)…No limitation to liability applies here”.Consequently, the trial Court ordered “the ticket refund to the (Appellant) should be in full without any deduction or charge,” with a “further grant of N2.5 million in general damages and N250,000.00 in legal costs” to the Mekwunye.
Appeal after appeal

The matter was then taken to a court of appeal where Emirates won. However, Mekwunye appealed this ruling and took it to the Supreme Court. At the very bottom of the document it states that the decision was held:
“…the Court found merit in the appeal and accordingly allowed same…The judgment of the Federal High Court was restored…”

Foreign AffairsSpeaker Pelosi Asks U.S. House Of Reps To Draft Articles Of Impeachment by PDPGuy(op): 3:23pm On Dec 05, 2019
Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi announced moments ago that she is asking House Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler to proceed with articles of impeachment.

She began her statement my referencing some of the founders of the US.

"Another founder, Governor Morris, feared that a president may be bribed by a greater interest to betray his trust. He emphasized that this magistrate is not a king. The people are the king. They, therefore, created a constitutional remedy to protect against a dangerous or corrupt leader: Impeachment," Pelosi said.
She added, "In America, no one is above the law."

She then said Trump has "abused his power" as President.

"The President abused his power for his own personal political benefit at the expense of our national security," Pelosi said.

I am still waiting for Trump to apologize for falsely claiming that Obama was not a natural-born U.S. citizen. But, we all know there is a 99.99% chance that he would call it 'fake news'. Trump is a joke for real cheesy

As Prof Karlan has apologized, we also hope Trump apologizes for the falsehoods and insults he has dished out to various people.

Trump would have saved himself a lot of these shenanigans if he didn't block the likes of Mulvaney, Bolton, or Pompeo from testifying. Who knows whether those three gentlemen may have essentially exonerated Trump from the quid quo pro allegations.
