SportsEthiopia Vs. Nigeria: The History Of A Contest by Willgates(op): 4:46pm On Oct 10, 2013
By Demola Dawodu
Nigerians are looking forward to the
World Cup Qualifying double-header
against the Walya Antelopes of Ethiopia
with cautious optimism. The Super Eagles
may possess a multi-talented group of
players, but they will be acutely aware of
the threats posed by their hosts.
Nigeria are ranked 36th in the world and
4th in Africa, with the Antelopes a distant
93rd in the FIFA rankings and 25th in the
continental hierarchy. On paper, the gulf
in class is colossal, but Ethiopia are an
emerging force in African football. The
East African side qualified for the last
Africa Cup of Nations in South Africa after
a 31-year absence and finished top of
their World Cup qualifying group ahead of
Bafana Bafana, even after being docked
three points for fielding an ineligible
player.
The Antelopes, coached by Sewnet
Bishaw, are known for their slick passing
and the high pressing game they
exhibited at the last AFCON. However, the
relative inexperience of the side might just
be their undoing against a vastly talented
Nigerian side who are, let us not forget,
the reigning African champions. The
Ethiopians, with their squad
predominantly based in the nation’s top
flight, may struggle against the diverse
array of superstars that Stephen Keshi
can call upon.
The two teams have met seven times
before, with Nigeria winning four of those
matches. Ethiopia recorded a famous
victory against the Super Eagles in a 1994
Africa Cup of Nations qualifier, while two
further fixtures have ended in draws.
The two countries first locked horns at the
1982 AFCON in Libya, where Nigeria
defeated Ethiopia 3-0. The current Super
Eagles coach, the aforementioned Keshi,
grabbed a brace on that eventful day.
Ademola Adeshina also found the net.
The second meeting was an international
friendly at the Ethiopian capital, Addis
Ababa, in 1993 which the Eagles won by
a goal to nil.
The sole Ethiopian victory was a 1-0
triumph on home soil in April 1993.
Victor Moses | The Game-changer against
Ethiopia in the Cup of Nations
The next meeting was on July 24, 1993, in
the return leg of a 1994 Nations Cup
qualifier when Nigeria thrashed the East
Africans 6-0 with the late Rashidi 'Yeking'
Yekini scoring a hat-trick in a thrilling
game that also marked the international
debut of Sunday Oliseh. Ethiopia’s one
brief revolution against the established
order was quashed swiftly and
emphatically by Clemens Westerhof and
his troops.
During the 2012 Nations Cup qualifiers,
Nigeria secured a 2-2 draw in Addis
Abba. Ethiopia striker Saladin Said scored
a brace and it took a very late equalizer
from captain Joseph Yobo to salvage a
point on the road for the Super Eagles in
what was a feisty encounter.
Nigeria thumped Ethiopia by four goals in
the return leg at the Abuja National
Stadium. Peter Utaka and Ike Uche
bagged two goals apiece in an imperious
performance by the West Africans.
The Eagles put in a less-than-convincing
performance in the last meeting between
the two sides, but even that concluded
with a 2-0 win for Nigeria at the 2013
AFCON in South Africa. Victor Moses
scored a brace of penalty kicks to ensure
progress to the last eight of the
tournament which the Super Eagles
eventually won.
The final 15 minutes of that fixture, as
Moses’s searing pace, sublime dribbling
and unruffled finishing turned the tide
Nigeria’s way and sent the Super Eagles
on their way to a glorious continental
triumph.
The next episode in this storied rivalry will
be the much-anticipated first-leg of the
playoff, billed for October 13 in Addis
Ababa, while the second leg is due to take
place in Calabar on November 16 in front
of a partisan U.J Esuene crowd.
If the evidence gathered in this article is
anything to go by, Nigeria winning the tie
over two legs looks a likely proposition.
However, in the end the tables might just
turn in favour of either team through a
moment of magic or a flash of genius.
The only certain thing is that two
enthralling 90 minutes of football lie in
store for the fervent football fans of
Africa.

Madalla bombing: Kabiru Sokoto files
N300m suit against FG
on october 08, 2013 at 12:30 am in news
By Ikechukwu Nnochiri
ABUJA — The alleged mastermind of the
Christmas day bomb blast that killed
about 44 persons and wounded 75 others
at St. Theresa’s Catholic Church, Madalla,
Niger State, in 2011, Kabiru Umar, a.k.a
Kabiru Sokoto, yesterday, instituted a
N300 million suit against the Federal
Government.
In an application he filed before Justice
Adeniyi Ademola of the Abuja Division of
the Federal High Court, Sokoto, who is
answering to a two-count terrorism
charge, urged the court to award the
money to him as exemplary and general
damages against the Federal Government
over alleged torture and beatings he
suffered in the hands of operatives of the
Department of State Services, DSS.
*Kabiru Sokoto
He made the application shortly after his
team of lawyers, led by Mr. Sheriff Okoh,
urged the trial court to discharge and
acquit the accused person for want of
incriminating evidence linking him to the
Boko Haram Islamic sect.
It was the contention of the alleged Boko
Haram kingpin that the government failed
to establish a prima-facie terrorism
charge capable of warranting his
conviction.
“We urge this court, based on facts, to
discharge and acquit the accused person
for want of evidence and inability of the
prosecution to establish a prima-facie
terrorism charge against him.
“The accused in count two is being
accused of having information about
terrorism attack at St Theresa Catholic
church, contrary to section 7(1) of the
Terrorism Prevention Act, 2001, an
allegation he has denied.
“For a person to be guilty under this
section, there must be a ‘Mensrea’ which
goes to knowledge and believe that the
offence will be committed or has been
committed.
“The only context in which the term
knowing can be construed under the
terrorism prevention Act is actual
knowledge and the constructive
knowledge.” SOURCE: http://www.vanguardngr.com/2013/10/madalla-bombing-kabiru-sokoto-files-n300m-suit-fg/

SportsEthiopia's Coach Dreams Of Qualifying For Brazil by Willgates(op): 1:07am On Oct 08, 2013
The Walya Antelopes' trainer has boasted
that his men have all it takes to beat the
Super Eagles to the 2014 World Cup ticket
Coach Sewnet Bishaw insists his men are
ready for the Nigeria national team when
both sides face off in Sunday’s first leg
final round of the 2014 World Cup
qualifiers billed for Addis Ababa.
Although the Walya Antelopes are big
underdogs going into this tie against the
Eagles that are ranked 36th in the world,
the Ethiopian handler maintains an
unwavering doggedness to stage an upset
against the African champions.
’’I don't know Brazil, so I want to see it,"
Bishaw told the AFP .
Concerning the team's preparations for
the important game at the National
Stadium, Bishaw said his boys are aware
of the task ahead of them.
"We have tried to prepare them physically
as well as mentally in the first week and
now we are doing our tactical work and
we will continue in the coming few days
to combine the two," he said.
He however claimed that the Nigerian
squad at the Africa Cup of Nations is not
a better team than the Walya Antelopes.
The Eagles won 2-0 via penalties from
Victor Moses on their way to lifting the
trophy for the third time.
"If you look seriously at that match,
Nigeria were not a better team than us.
Up to the end we were performing well.
But in the last 10 minutes they used their
experience, so they got two penalties. I
think we will have a better game in the
coming match against Nigeria," he
concluded.
Ethiopia host Nigeria on Sunday while the
return match is scheduled for November
16 with the aggregate winners qualifying
for the 2014 World Cup.
It would be a big shock if the East
Africans go through ahead of their more
fancied opponents.
