It is no longer news that Olori Wuraola is no longer together with her former husband, the Ooni of Ife.

However until now, it was not easy to know details of what led to the failure of the marriage. There have been lots of rumours of the failed marriage for some weeks now.

The former wife of the Ooni of Ife Olori Wuraola has finally decided to confirm the crash of her marriage to the reining Ooni of Ife Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi Ojaja.

She has also reportedly reverted to her maiden name Zaynab Otiti Obanor.

We bring you details of her full statement below:

“OFFICIAL STATEMENT:

We have got to stop this culture of shaming and vilifying women with false stories of infidelity & nefarious behavior. The spreading of false information (through “sources” afraid to be identified) is the mark of cowards and a cover up for guilty parties to justify their horrific actions. There is absolutely no truth to the media circulated lies of infidelity and infertility- on my end.

What I can confirm, is that the Ooni and I are no more. I inhale love & exhale gratitude. My journey continues as a Humanitarian aiding women and victims of domestic violence & abuse with the United Nations. No matter how much time you’ve invested, no matter the use of media to silence & manipulate, no matter the circumstance, slander, embarrassment, threats and lies: Get out and seek immediate help! We’ve seen this movie before.

Women being dragged in the press & blamed for everything under the sun. This behavior is unacceptable. I urge those involved to be mindful of their actions for the eyes of our Almighty God are always watching. The seeds of slander is a cancer that harvests to eat away the souls of the planter. The throne is sacred and the attempts to tarnish the name of a Queen, in defense or on behalf of a silent King makes all involved look terrible.

Remain dignified in all you do. It’s not the end of the world, but the start of a new chapter and you must turn the page with grace. The world is watching. As I bid adieu to this chapter, my wish to you all is to step into your lives – boldly & fearlessly, the way God intended and live not just by words, but through example. The best chapter in our lives is the one we are writing now. Thank you for your love and support. With peace, love & light, -Her Highness, Zaynab Otiti Obanor.”

IF THIS HAPPENS IN NIGERIA?

THE SOLDIERS WILL WILL REINFORCE IN BATTALIONS, SHOOT RANDOMLY. BURN DOWN STRUCTURES AND GO THEIR WAY.

NEXT WILL BE: UNKNOWN SOLDIERS CAUSES MAYHEM IN SOME PARTS OF THE COUNTRY.

We can collectively stop all of that by talking about it everywhere, showcasing abuse cases on blogs, other media outlets and complaining to and putting pressure on our-so-called representatives to complain to the relevant authorities. For an example, this post and other related ones are always on my Facebook and Twitter handle. The government will have to do something if the complaints are virtually everywhere they turn.
Do not be discouraged. Act but in a civil manner and we will get there for sure.

lordkush:
it's just a matter of time before they stop wearing thier uniform in the streets os of aba, Nnewi, nsuka, ekwulobia et al
because soon or later the people will rise against them, no matter howw powerful and we'll armed you are, you can't live were evryone want you dead






especially the police.



hate speech or not I don't bloody care. it's the truth

This is no hate speech. You are simply angry and that is understandable. Soldiers by the way are not meant to be seen on the streets except when they need to help the civilians during disaster periods like what happened Macao in China.
See the video of the galant soldiers helping the civilians clear disaster stuff here; http://uneekomunikations.com/wp/uneekomunikations-the-macao-example-for-nigerian-soldiers-video/

Some African security officers are inexperience in terms of handling protesters.

Only Some? Dem Plenty, Abeg. Dem Yapa as we dey talk am for Broken.

If no one saw this coming, then we are all blind men in Africa. This piece of news will not be an exception unless something is seriously done to make soldiers realize their place and duty when in the midst of the civilian populace which pay their salaries in order to be protected by them.

If no one has told them yet that the civilians pay their salaries, then their leaders need to get some serious orientation. Read below the effects of such ignorance. 

Some armed soldiers recently received the beatings of their lives from an angry Mob during a protest in Lome, Togo. The soldiers had gone to shoot two persons dead, an action that got the rest of the protesters really angry and consequently made them to attack the soldiers in a do or die battle.

The angry protesters went on to seize the Ak-47 rifles belonging to the soldiers and attacked them with sticks and sharp objects.

If you are one of those people who claim “I have seen it all”, then try these news for a measure and tell me if you have “seen it all”.

Chidhatma Basu, an Indian man unfortunately lost his wife in a car accident in sometime January. Recently he decided to marry another wife. And who did he choose as a wife? A female Rat!

If anyone around him thought that was a joke, they were in for a real surprise as this guy went on to officially wed his “Rat Wife” in a ceremony held in Bangalore, India.

Monday the 28th day of August, 2017 was a real “hot day” in India as a court sentenced the popular but controversial spiritual leader Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh to a total of 20 years in jail for raping two women followers.

Gurmeet has been in police custody in the Indian northern town of Rohtak since his conviction took place on Friday.

Even though the sentencing was done amid intense security, this did not stop thousands of his supporters from setting fire to numerous vehicles and clashing with security forces, in a situation that has so far left 38 dead, in the northern state of Haryana.

All of this happening despite the fact also that more than 100 of Singh’s senior loyalists have been placed in detention as a precautionary measure, said Rohtak police chief Navdeep Singh Virk.

He said his officers would use “whatever force is required” to resist the guru’s devotees should they again resort to violence. The Police Chief went on to say that; “If the situation so arises that (we) need to use firearms, my officers have complete authority,” the police chief told broadcaster NDTV.

A judge was flown by helicopter to sentence the 50-year-old spiritual leader known as the “guru in bling” for his penchant for bejewelled costumes.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has already condemned the violence even though his ruling Bharatiya Janata Party, which is also in power in Haryana, has been criticised for failing to anticipate the riots.

For those of you who follow World News closely, I believe that you must have heard about the various natural disasters going on around the world for sometime now and how the various governments have been responding to their peoples’ needs at such critical times.

I honestly hope that that the various arms of the Nigerian Government are not just watching the scenes on television like a Nollywood Movie but are actually learning how to correctly govern a country in a bid to make it greater.

I have neither heard nor seen from those reports anything like what is happening in Nigeria where it is more important for members of the House Of Assembly to hustle for a car worth “millions of naira” while the people in their constituencies are dying from avoidable natural disasters.

And as far as our military arm is concerned, I hope they watch the video clips on what is happening in Macao right now. They will see how the PLA (Chinese Soldiers) have become the toast of the civilian populace as they have come to their rescue by helping the people overcome the effects of a recent storm that virtually brought life activities to a halt.

These soldiers have not only restored sanity by clearing debris, wastes, garbage and done a whole lot more in order to have water, electricity and free transportation restored to Macao but have also become a source of pride to the locals, some of whom confessed that they never expected such acts from the PLA. Some others confessed that they have never seen the soldiers live on the streets before now.

Now comparing all of that to the situation in Nigeria where we only hear about our own soldiers when they extort innocent motorists, get involved in rape cases and other related criminal acts, is it still difficult to understand why a nation like Nigeria is lagging behind countries such as Benin Republic in terms of developmental strides?

And why won’t “RATS” send away the President of Nigeria from his office in the Aso Rock Villa?

A word they say, is enough for the wise.

When news filtered in that Abia Warriors defeated MFM 1-0 at home, the jubilation in Plateau United’s camp and across the state could have been heard as far as Lagos and beyond.

That was not because the Jos boys have now won the NPFL League title. No, not yet. That was actually because of the shock that was brought about by the fact that Rivers United unexpectedly made the home team struggle for a point right here in Jos at a Rwang Pam Stadium that was filled to the brim with fans that were ready to celebrate their darling team at the end of ninety minutes.

Who would have expected a struggling team like Rivers United to come and do what better teams like Akwa United and MFM could not do in Jos? Now you understand the reason for the wild jubilations because at the end, Plateau United actually GAINED A POINT instead of losing two!

In order not to keep you waiting for too long, w bring you the results of other matches played and the current NPFL League Standings as follows below;

The two arguably best football players in the world for some years now, Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi met in Monaco at the UEFA’s Best Player awards Ceremony and had some discussions on football generally and specifically about the crisis at F.C. Barcelona.

Cristiano Ronaldo who by the way won the award, reportedly told Lionel Messi that “I am worried for you”.

Ronaldo was said to have seriously expressed his concern for the Argentine as he told Messi that with the present situation surrounding F.C. Barcelona, “no-one inside the Real locker room regard Barca as genuine title challengers and also expressed concern about how Messi’s career could end if he remained at the Nou Camp”.

Ronaldo was reported as telling Messi that with the Barcelona struggling in the transfer market and losing Neymar this summer, the Barca Superstar needed better players around him and there was a real danger of his career fizzling out if things did not improve immediately.

At last some good news on the transfer market for F.C. Barcelona fans.

After all the days of disappointing news here and there, some good news have finally arrived as Barca succeeds in signing Ousmane Dembélé from Borussia Dortmund after a hectic time negotiating the deal which saw the player forcing his way out of his former club.

FC Barcelona and Borussia Dortmund finally reached an agreement for the transfer of Ousmane Dembélé for around 105 million euros plus some add-ons.

The player is expected to sign a five year contract with his buy out-clause is put at some 400 million euros. This surely shows how much the Catalonian Giants value their latest acquisition.

Ousmane Dembélé is expected to arrive in Barcelona on Sunday when he is scheduled to undergo a medical on Monday morning local time after which more details of the plans for the player’s presentation to the waiting Nou Camp fans scheduled for Monday, will be made public.

F.C. Barcelona can congratulate themselves for the acquisition of Ousmane Dembélé who is regarded as one of the best young players in the world.

The French winger is well known for his pace, ability to easily beat defenders and his versatility generally. He comes to FC Barcelona after having demonstrated his quality at Rennes and later on with Borussia Dortmund.

He is very comfortable playing on either wing in attack and is known for his great dribbling abilities. He is expected to be a perfect replacement for Neymar who left for Paris St. Germain of France recently.

The President of the United States, Donald Trump has been described as “a danger to the world”. This ordinarily would not have raised any dust but for the fact that this claim is coming from a group of Psychiatrists in the United States Of America.

‘It no longer takes a psychiatrist to recognise the alarming patterns of impulsive, reckless, and narcissistic behaviour,’ the group claims. The group in a letter sent to the Congress further warned that the US President poses a “clear and present danger” to the world.

A member of the group, Dr Bandy Lee, of Yale University, says she is very concerned about Donald Trump’s “dangerousness”.

According to the group, “It no longer takes a psychiatrist to recognise the alarming patterns of impulsive, reckless, and narcissistic behaviour — regardless of diagnosis — that, in the person of President Trump, put the world at risk.

It went further to say that “We now find ourselves in a clear and present danger, especially concerning North Korea and the President’s command of the US nuclear arsenal.”
This is coming after the creation of an 11-member, cross-party Oversight Commission on Presidential Capacity which would be responsible for examining the US president’s mental and physical health. More than two dozen members of the House have now backed the bill which would see Mr Trump or any other US president forced from the Oval Office is he or she is deemed to be mentally or physically unfit for the role.

Very Good News for all fans of Manchester United! Mercurial Striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic has signed a one-year deal to play for the team once again. He will wear the number 10 shirt for the team as he “tries to complete what he started at ManU” according to him.

The 35-year-old striker made 46 appearances and scored 28 goals for Manchester United during the 2016/17 British Premier League campaign before suffering a knee injury, which abruptly brought an early end to his first season at the Old Trafford.

Manchester United Manager, Jose Mourinho had this to say about the player; “We are delighted Zlatan is on the road to recovery and we are equally delighted to have his ambition and experience back with us. After his contribution last season he deserves our trust and we will be patient waiting for him to return. I have no doubt that he will be important in the second part of the season.”

The obviously elated player on his part had this to say; “I am back to finish what I started. It was always mine and the club’s intention for me to stay. I cannot wait to get back out on that Old Trafford pitch, but I also know that I have to take my time to make sure that I am ready. I have been working hard and will continue to do so to make sure I am in the best possible condition for my return to the pitch.”

This addition surely makes Manchester United one of the most complete team in the British Premier League if not in Europe as a whole and of course, one of the title favorites in the BPL this season.

Nigeria’s Super Eagles Coach, Gernot Rohr is surely not taking chances in the forth-coming World Cup qualifying matches against Cameroun which will surely play a decisive role in whether Nigeria qualifies for the 2018 World Cup Competition in Russia or not.

He surely got a real feel of how much Nigerians love and understand football recently when the Super Eagles lost a match at home to South Africa and the resultant reactions across the country must have shown him that this particular job is not for the lily-livered type of coaches.

The job of being the Nigeria’s Super Eagles Coach has never been an easy one for anybody and that is surely not about to change with the level of enlightened soccer followers that support the nation’s national team here and abroad.

The coach must have taken all of that into proper consideration before announcing the list of players he wants to make up the squad that will face Cameroun in the up-coming crucial encounters as the list shows. Already, knowledgeable soccer fans and Nigerian ex-internationals like Amuneke have acknowledged his selection as the right one for the country.

Some level of good news for ardent F.C. Barcelona fans at long last after days and weeks of disappointing news concerning transfer targets Coutinho and Dembele.

The Catalan Soccer Giants have reportedly agreed a four-year contract with Jean-Michael Seri, the dimunitive Ivorian midfielder who currently plies his trade at Nice in the French Ligue 1.

F.C. Barcelona officials are now being expected in France on Monday to open talks with the Management of Nice in relation with the transfer deal. Nice values Seri to be worth about €40million.

Some other reports have it that the player’s agent is already in Barcelona to finalize details of his client’s move to the Nou Camp.

The F.C. Barcelona Manager Ernesto Valverde is bent on getting a proper replacement for former Barca player Neymar, who left for Paris Saint-Germain in a world-record move.

However, Seri who stood out in his team’s games last season on their way to qualifying for this year’s Champions’ League is seen in many quarters as more of a defensive mid-fielder.

NPFL Table Leaders, Plateau United got their lead cut to three points ahead of MFM at the week-end as they bowed 0-2 to an ABS team that is desperately struggling to escape relegation from Nigeria’s First Tier Football.

The closest challengers for the League Title, MFM narrowly defeated another relegation threatened team, Gombe United by a solitary goal at the Agege Stadium in Lagos. The 1-0 win was however all they needed to get closer to the Table Toppers with just three points now separating both teams.

The Nigerian Home-Based Eagles yesterday over-turned their first leg 1-0 defeat at the hands of the Republic Of Benin team by beating the visitors by a convincing 2-0 at the Sani Abacha Stadium in Kano and thereby qualified for next year’s Africa Nations Championship.

The two goals came courtesy the boots of Kingsley Eduwo and Rabiu Aliu as the hosts overran the hapless visiting team from the Benin Republic.

The game itself had earlier on looked like it was going to be another bad one for the home team as the visitors were awarded a penalty kick but then the Nigerian goal-stopper, Ikechukwu Ezenwa rose to the occasion to deny the visitors a goal by saving Sidoubou’s penalty kick to the applause of the home fans.

With this victory, the Home-Based Eagles can conveniently start preparations for their participation in the 2018 Africa Nations Championship taking place in Kenya.

After spending some 103 days away from home and office, President Muhammadu Buhari finally returned to Nigeria today, Saturday (19th August, 2017) from London, United Kingdom where he had been receiving medical treatment.

Dozens of state officials were present at the airport to receive him as the Nigerian Air-force plane carrying President Buhari touched down at the Abuja international airport this evening.

At the airport to welcome the president were members of the National Assembly, Service Chiefs, The Inspector-General of Police, Ibrahim Idris, the Chief of Staff to the President, Abba Kyari, as well as other presidential aides.

Also at the Airport were some state governors such as  Abubakar Bello of Niger, Abdullahi Ganduje of Kano, Atiku Bagudu of Kebbi, Nyeson Wike of Rivers, Muhammed Abubakar of Bauchi, Abdulaziz Yari of Zamfara and the Deputy governor of Kaduna state, Barnabas Bala.

Equally present on the occasion were the National Security Adviser to the President (NSA), Babagana Monguno; the Director-General, State Security Service, SSS, Lawal Daura, and some other dignitaries.

President Buhari who appeared in a traditional attire with a cap, took a national salute from the Presidential Guards Brigade while cultural groups were on hand to sing and dance to welcome him back home. He later rode in a motorcade to the presidential villa. 

According to Buhari's media aides, he is expected to speak to Nigerians in a broadcast on Monday at 7 a.m.

Pastor E.A. Adeboye, the General Overseer of Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG)Worldwide joined the frowing list of eminent personalities who have visited ailing President Muhammadu Buhari at the Abuja House in London.

The Nigerian President went on to share photos of him and Pastor Adeboye on Twitter with the caption:

“I thank Pastor Adeboye for visiting today, and for his prayers and good wishes. May God continue to bless him and his work.”

It is surely not the best of times for people living in and around Barcelona. The soccer team of recent has not had the best of times especially in their Spanish Super Cup games against Real Madrid after losing a certain Neymar Jnr. to PSG and here they are on the receiving end of a terrorist attack.

Just yesterday (Thursday the 17th August, 2017), a driver deliberately drove a van into a crowd on Barcelona’s most popular street in what police said was a “terror attack” and in what also reminds one of the Charlottesville attack in the United States of America only a few days ago.

Already, some 13 people have been confirmed dead with a whole lot more (about 100 as at the last count) are injured and being treated for various degrees of injury. The five attackers operated from an Audi A3, wearing suicide bomb belts and were shot dead, police said. The bomb belts were detonated by the force’s bomb squad.

The city’s soccer giants, the Barcelona Football Club on Thursday evening expressed their heartfelt condolences to the families of victims of the terror blasts that hit the city.

The attack has left the world in total shock at another senseless but ruthless attack by terror groups, and FC Barcelona released a statement Thursday evening on how they intend to honor the victims.

“FC Barcelona wishes to express its profound sorrow, grief and utter disgust at the terrorist attack that has hit the heart of our city, la Rambla de Barcelona,” a statement on the club’s website reads.

F.C. Barcelona will start the 2017/18 La Liga season against Betis on Sunday. The Camp Nou plans to hold a minute silence in recognition and memory of the victims.

“As a mark of respect, the flags will fly at half-mast at all of the Club’s installations and the players from both teams will wear black armbands in all the Club’s matches this weekend.”

“The Club wishes to express our support and thoughts to the victims, their families and friends as well as the people of Barcelona and its visitors.” The statement further said.

Sometimes I wonder if up to 99 % of my people in Nigeria know anything about the term “Democracy”. That includes the governing class, by the way. If you cannot take constructive criticism, you have no business leading a family talk less of a country.

Closely related to the thought above is that of the difference between a Military Rule and a Civilian one. The whole thing is so mixed up and bastardized that I wonder why some people still blame our young ones for not performing well at school. What examples are the leaders giving to them? They do not realize that the best way to teach a child is by example. I am very sorry for those people in the teaching profession and that includes “My Honorable Self”.

Back to the issue at hand however. It is not news that for some days now, there are two opposing groups camping in the nations’s capital and protesting the issue concerning the fact that Nigeria’s President Buhari has been away from home for some 100 days on sick leave. While a group is asking for him to come home or resign, another is pro Buhari and saying that he has the right to stay away on sick leave for as long as is necessary.

However the hitherto peaceful convergence of the two groups in a place not far from one another has suddenly taken a violent turn as the leader of the anti-Buhari group, Charles Oputa aka Charly Boy, was almost sent on an unscheduled errand to his Creator by a mob made up of supporters of the president yesterday.

The incident itself has negatively affected the lives of other non-participating citizens as it has now led to the closure of the Wuse Market with innocent traders now locked out of their shops. This is all happening in the very capital city of Nigeria, Abuja where the so-called leaders of the country hold sway and are resident.

Reports reaching our News Desk has it that the whole problem started when the anti-Buhari protesters known with the #Our Mumu Don Do group led by its leader, Charly Boy, took their protest to the market and were subsequently confronted by the pro-Buhari group. This of course led to a free-for-all fight, with stones and all manner of objects flying from different directions like bullets.

How did all of that happen? A reliable source said that before the whole issue started, Charly Boy and his group were turned back at the main gate of the market on arrival by the leader of the market task force. This naturally led to an argument that ensued between the two groups, culminating in the pro-Buharists swooping on Charly Boy and other co-protesters.

The mob consisting of various elements in the area who were said to be chanting “Sai Baba, Sai Baba” allegedly attacked Charly Boy’s group with stones and sticks, saying that they have no right to bring their protest to the market. However, a co-convener of “Resume or Resign” movement, Mr. Deji Adeyanju, informed journalists that it was not true that the group went to the market to protest.

He explained that some of the leaders of the group went to the market to see one of their coordinators who owns a shop in the market only to be attacked by the hoodlums. “Yes, our group was attacked by some hoodlums in the market. We only went there to see one of our coordinators and not for protest. Right now, some of our members are wounded and Charly Boy’s BMW bike was damaged by the hoodlums”, he said.

Going by all of the above, is it really correct to say that Nigeria is operating a democracy? If such things can happen at the seat of government without any preventive measures in place, what would happen when such take place anywhere else in the country? Where was the Police Force when all of these were taking place? What measures have our so-called leaders taken since the beginning of the protest actions to fore-stall the violence eventually took place?

Oh sorry friends, I forgot that not all of them have gotten the cars (worth millions of naira each) that they allocated to themselves and are still busy handling that issue which is of more national importance.

If anyone of you reading this piece is close to Cristiano Ronaldo and have access to him, please tell him that I, Mr. Kingsley Okpoh of the Uneekomunikations say he needs urgent psychological assistance.

This otherwise talented and hard-working footballer is fast destroying all his hard work with childish displays that will get him nowhere but down. This particular aspect of him is the major difference between Lionel Messi and him. Interestingly, he is the older of the two.

If Cristiano Ronaldo was to be a Nigerian, I am very sure people would by now have been tracing his problems to his village and family members (extended and immediate) as well as witch craft. He would have gotten recommendations to go for “Spiritual Cleansing” somewhere along the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway in December.

On a more serious note, it is difficult to sometimes understand the actions of this otherwise mega-talented footballer. What for an example, did he gain by imitating Lionel Messi’s “Shirt Showing” gesture in a game Real Madrid was comfortably winning?

Worse still, what in the name of all things football made a soccer star of his level shove a referee in the back in a match being watched by millions (if not billions) of people all over the world?

Just in case he has not yet rendered a public apology to that referee and his club’s teeming supporters, close friends of his should please advise him to do so asap.

We do not wish to see a soccer star of his stature and level go down in shame after sacrificing so much towards the growth of football by way of the amount of hard work he has put into becoming one of the very best of footballers in the world.

It was yet another glorious day at the Rwang Pam Stadium in Jos, Plateau State yesterday as the darling team of the state, Plateau United took another bold step in their quest to win the Nigerian Professional Football League title for the very first time in the history of the club.

The team did this in grand style as they defeated their closest rivals on the League Table, the MFM Football Club of Lagos by a solitary but very important goal to remain at the top of the NPFL Table as at Match Day 34.

Plateau United now has 62 points while MFM has 56. That gives the Jos Gote Boys a solid cushion of 6 points with just 4 games to go in the the League.

If all goes well and according to plan, their last match at the Rwang Pam Stadium in the current season will be one of celebration of the title win. Their next match will be away to ABS next Wednesday and the celebrations may just start in advance at the end of that match.

The results of the rest of the matches played on Sunday as well as the current NPFL Table Standings are as follows below;

All roads lead to the Nou Camp in Catalona this evening as the first El Clasico match on Spanish soil for the new season takes place between hosts F.C. Barcelona and perennial opponents Real Madrid at 9 p.m.

For the F.C. Barcelona fans as well as for many other football followers, all eyes will be on the team’s left flank to see who replaces Neymar Jnr. who recently left the team for PSG and how that player performs his role.

Can Barca dominate Madrid with its new-look squad or will it be an easy win for the visitors? How does the new Barcelona line-up look like? Many questions will be answered in this game later tonight. We bring to you insider facts about F.C. Barcelona’s new-look team.

Even when this is not a league match, it is of no lesser importance and will surely be as competitive as it has always been for years now. It is even more important for the two coaches as they have never faced each other as Managers in the Super Cup Competition.

In this post, I will be focusing mainly on the F.C. Barcelona team as it is the one that has made some changes to its squad and will be looking a bit different from what we are used to seeing. That in itself makes Real Madrid favorites going into the match. The game itself is a two legged affair with the second leg coming up at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium in a few day’s time (on Wednesday).

Now to the main issues. How will the Barcelona Manager cope with the gap created in the famous MSN with the sudden departure of Neymar? Are we going to see an MSD or MSWhat? What is the team line-up going to look like?

Reliable sources reaching our News Desk has it that Barcelona will be going into this game today without Arda Turan, Marlon Santos and Sergi Samper while Real Madrid willbe without the services of Luka Modric and Jesús Vallejo.

Further more, F.C Barcelona are likely to have Gerard Deulofeu start the game on the left side of their attack as direct replacement for Neymar and playing alongside Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez. The mid-field will have the usual actors in place as Andres Iniesta, Ivan Rakitic and Sergio Busquets take their normal positions.

At the back, the center-backs will be Gerard Piqué and Samuel Umtiti with Jordi Alba at his usual position at left-back. The right-back is where the Manager will have to decide between Aleix Vidal and new-comer Nelson Semedo with the odds slightly favoring the former.

And so at the end of the day, the line-ups are likely going to take the shape below;

Barcelona

Ter Stegen; Vidal, Piqué, Umtiti, Alba; Rakitic, Busquets, Iniesta; Messi, Suárez, Deulofeu

If anyone out there had thought that the British Premier League Season was going to start off in the usual manner, they were in for a solid shocker as the matches played on Saturday went down a completely different lane.

And I am not just talking about the F.C. Chelsea debacle here. Almost all the matches played had some unexpected features with surprises here and there dominating the day’s results.

The day had started on a warning note with the first match going against most predictions and custom as favorites F.C. Liverpool struggled against the home team Watford F.C. Even though the game finally ended up in a 3-3 draw, it could just as well have ended up in a shock defeat for the visiting team.

Then came the matches slated for 3.00p.m. And the warning bells from the 12.45 p.m. game continued to ring in many of the stadia across Britain. And at the end of the day, there were drawn faces to be found virtually everywhere from the Stamford Bridge to Crystal Palace.

The greatest of the surprises of course happened at the Stamford Bridge area of London where the Bridge got a serious shake-up from the marauding guys from Burnley of all places.

A game that had been expected to be a celebration of some sort for the Chelsea faithfuls turned into something else as Burnley took advantage of playing against a 9-man Chelsea by beating the defending champions 3-2 on their home turf!

In the course of the game, Gary Cahill and later on Cesc Fabregas had been given the marching order from the referee for unsportsmanlike acts. The rest as they say, is now history.

If anyone was expecting the newly promoted teams to struggle from the start of the season, that person or person must have been fully disappointed as another of these teams put up an even more superlative performance with Huddersfield Town defeating Crystal Palace by three unreplied goals.

And that they did away from home! 3-0 away win for Huddersfield Town at Crystal Palace I dare repeat. Who would have expected such a result from a newly promoted team?

A lesser magnitude of a surprise result was on hand at Southampton when the hosts failed to beat Swansea F.C. in a match that ended goalless.

With all that took place on Saturday in the Premiership matches, I am quite sure that Manchester United F.C. and their Manager Jose Mourinho do not need anyone to advise them to be very wary of any possible surprises in their home game coming up today against West Ham at the Old Trafford.

SoftDealz:
Giroud.. that one Na striker?

No, na Goal-keeper for Enugu Rangers.

If the game between Arsenal and Leicester City in the first match of this season’s British Premier League is to be used as a yardstick for what is to come, then we are all in for a thriller of a season.

It is not everyday that one gets to watch a seven goal thriller in the British Premier League but that is exactly what was on the menu this evening as both teams went out on full throttle at each other in a very thrilling attacking encounter at the Emirates Stadium.

Very significant for Arsenal is not just that they won the thrilling match at the end but the fact that their newly acquired star striker – Alexandre Lacazette – did not only play to the expectations of the home fans but did so in a very significant manner by opening his goal account in just two minutes of his first game in the British Premier League.

Another positive note for Arsenal to take from this game is the fact that the four goals they scored in this match came from the boots of four different different players of theirs and very importantly, three of them were from their strikers namely Alexandre Lacazette, Danny Welbeck and of course, Olivier Giroud who as usual scored a late but very important goal that proved to be a winner once again.

Neymar Jnr. is very much on his way to Paris St. Germain if all things go well in the next few days. The main obstacle to that move is interestingly not coming from his present team (F.C. Barcelona) but from the European Football Authorities who have rules in place to ensure that the transfer market is financially sanitized.

As it stands, F.C. Barcelona seem resigned to the fact that one of the famous MSN trio is on his way out of the squad especially since Neymar did the needful at Wednesday’s training by personally informing his club mates and the team’s management of his wish to move to PSG as soon as possible.

The question that naturally followed this development was “how have his team mates been taking this development”?
