Politics / I Has No Involvement In The Dethronement Of Muhammadu Sanusi -buhari by Sammuel1920(m): 12:35pm On Mar 12, 2020
President Muhammadu Buhari yesterday absolved himself of complicity in the deposition of former Emir of Kano Muhammadu Sanusi II by the Kano State government.

Buhari said he “has no involvement whatsoever in the dethronement of HRH Muhammadu Sanusi II from the position of Emir of Kano,” stressing: “All such insinuations are untrue, malicious and politically motivated.”

The president’s reaction came in a statement issued by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity Garba Shehu.

It reads: “The president does not have a history of intervening in the affairs of any state in the country, unless the issue at hand is of national consequence. On such matters, which impinge on national security, he has a duty of involvement as the law stipulates.

“As outlined in the constitution, the appointment or removal of emirs and other traditional leaders is strictly within the jurisdiction of state governments. It is unfair and disingenuous of opposition politicians to try to link the situation in Kano State to the Federal Government and the Nigerian president.Read more.......https://daily9japost.com/2020/03/12/i-has-no-involvement-in-the-dethronement-of-muhammadu-sanusi-buhari/

Sports / Ole Gunnar Solskjaer Hails Odion Ighalo’s Manchester United Impact by Sammuel1920(m): 12:30pm On Mar 06, 2020
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer sang Odion Ighalo’s praises after the Manchester United striker scored twice in the 3-0 FA Cup fifth-round victory over Derby County.

Ighalo arrived at Old Trafford to much derision in the January transfer window, having spent the past three years playing in the Chinese Super League after a similar length spell at Watford.

But in just two starts for United, against Club Brugge in the Europa League and Derby, boyhood fan Ighalo has netted three goals.

His first against Derby featured good improvisation, pouncing on a loose ball in the box before guiding it into the bottom corner while under pressure from both Derby centre-backs.

The second was a thumping finish into the roof of the net after his first effort was blocked on the line, although he did spurn the chance to complete his hat-trick in the closing stages, firing over the bar.


Solskjaer believes Ighalo is showing he is “vital” for the side as they deal with Marcus Rashford’s absence through injury.

“He is doing what it says on the tin and what we asked for when we signed him,” Solskjaer said.Read more...https://daily9japost.com/2020/03/06/ole-gunnar-solskjaer-hails-odion-ighalos-manchester-united-impact/

Politics / Boko Haram Attacks Dapchi In Yobe, Burns Houses by Sammuel1920(m): 10:52am On Mar 05, 2020
A gang of gunmen believed to be Boko Haram fighters Wednesday night attacked Dapchi village in Yobe State.

Dozens of houses were burnt in the attack, PREMIUM TIMES learnt.

Dapchi is a town in Yobe State where schoolgirls were in February 2018 abducted from their dormitory by the Boko Haram. The girls were later released in a deal with the government; but one of the girls, Leah Sharibu, was held back because she reportedly refused to denounce her Christian faith.

Sources in Damaturu, who spoke to PREMIUM TIMES, confirmed the development. They said the attackers who invaded the town in large numbers may have inflicted serious damage on residents.

It was practically impossible to call Dapchi residents because the insurgents had grounded all telecommunications installations in that area during an earlier attack last week.

A government official in Damaturu who confirmed the development to our reporter on strict condition of anonymity said “they invaded Dapchi through Jimbam village before wrecking havoc on the town.”

“They burnt many homes during the attack, but no one can, for now, confirm whether there were deaths or not.”
