6582  Forum / Sports / Pep Guardiola Agrees Deal To Leave Manchester City For Juventus on: 23-05-2019 04:19 PM

That is the extraordinary claim of Italian journalist Federico Gennarelli of Radio Sportiva.
The Catalan coach secured the domestic treble and helped City become the first men’s team in English football history to win the league title and both cup competitions in the same season.
Manchester City wrapped up their trio of trophies with a record-equalling 6-0 thrashing of Watford in the FA Cup final at Wembley last Saturday - the joint-biggest margin of victory in any final in the competition’s 147-year history.
That came after beating Chelsea on penalties in the Carabao Cup final back in February before a 98-point league season secured back-to-back titles, becoming the first team in a decade to retain their Premier League crown as they edged rivals Liverpool, who ended on 97 points.
It is thought Guardiola’s ultimate ambition at the Etihad is to win them the Champions League for the first time ever and claim Europe’s biggest piece of silverware himself for the first time since 2011 when he was at Barcelona, with his failure to progress past the semi finals in three seasons at Bayern Munich a major criticism.
After three full seasons at City, he has so far failed to get past the quarter-final stage having lost to Liverpool last season and Tottenham this season, both of whom went on to reach the final in each campaign.
But with Max Allegri having left Juventus last week, reports now claim Guardiola will move to the Serie A giants, who own similar European ambitions, in the coming weeks.
Juve signed five-time Champions League winner Cristiano Ronaldo last summer but still could not progress past the quarter finals of the competition as they seek a first success on the continent since 1996.
And with Allegri potentially making a move to the Premier League after leading Juve to five titles in five years, Gennarelli claims Guardiola will give up his position at City despite having two years left to run on his contract.
Gennarelli said on Twitter: “It was supposed to be the decisive day. It was: Pep #Guardiola will be the new coach of the #Juventus. 4-year contract. Deal done.”
The claim follows reports from Guardiola’s native Spain that he met with Juve sporting director Fabio Paratici in Milan.
Paratici was pictured outside the Palazzo Parigi hotel in the city where Guardiola is currently staying and Onda Cero’s Mario Gago Huerta claimed to Sportitalia that the pair had a private discussion although that was not the purpose of his visit.
Instead, the reason for Guardiola’s Milan trip is thought to be for a charity event with sponsors.
It was added by Gago Huerta that Guardiola would be unlikely to leave England to take up the job in Turin even despite the allegations of Financial Fair Play breaches by City and suggestions they could be handed a one-year Champions League ban by UEFA.
But reports from Italy say, by contrast, that Guardiola will be take up the role will be officially unveiled as Juve boss on June 14.
The 48-year-old tactician gave an exasperated response when asked about his future with the Citizens just last week, however.
 
Quote
“How many times do I have to say, I’m not going to Juventus?” he said. “I am not going to move to Italy, I’m staying here two more seasons.
“If they want me, I have a contract, I am not going to move and I’m satisfied working here with this club, with these people here and I’m not going anywhere.”

 
Those comments would seem to kill any suggestion that Guardiola is going anywhere in the near future.
It had previously been mooted that Guardiola could reach a verbal agreement with Juve to go to the Old Lady whenever he leaves City, with it having long been clear that he would take up the managerial role with the Premier League side as they long hunted to bring his talents to England.
Guardiola is under contract with City until the end of the 2020-21 season and if he honours his deal, it will be his longest spell as a manager at one club. He spent four years at Barca and three with Bayern.
Recent reports have suggested City want to tie Guardiola down to a new long-term deal given his success at Eastlands.

So Dancehall artiste, Patoranking’s album listening party was held about two nights ago and many a celebrity guest were in attendance including music moguls, 2Baba and Wizkid.
A new video that’s now circulating the internet shows the moment the “Come Closer” singer came in contact with music icon, 2Baba and what transpired in the footage has caused a stir on Twitter.



According to most people, it appears that Wizkid didn’t properly greet the icon after the latter extended a gesture towards him at the event – in the footage, Wizkid is initially seen greeting 2Baba before he then heads on to acknowledge the man of the moment, Patoranking.
Seconds later, 2Baba is then seen extending his hands to shake Wizkid and it seems as though Wizkid neglected the hand shake for about two seconds before he then responded.


However, others are saying since the singer was on shades, it’s possible he didn’t see the gesture and thus, his delay. Watch the video below and tell us what you think.

6586  Forum / Politics / 'Thank You For Not Converting Me To Islam' -Rotimi Amaechi Tells President Buhari on: 23-05-2019 01:30 PM

The Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi on Wednesday jokingly thanked President Buhari for not converting him to Islam, saying he has been attacked severally for associating with a President who many assumed was planning to Islamize Nigeria.
Amaechi said this at the valedictory Federal Executive Council meeting at the State House Abuja yesterday Wednesday, May 22nd.
The former Rivers state governor narrated how he was almost chased out of Christ the King Catholic Church in 2014 for supporting the president, who they alleged was trying to Islamise the country.
 “Mr President, let me thank you for not converting me to Islam. I say that specifically because in 2014 when I walked into Christ the King Catholic Church, I was literally chased out of the church as a governor because I was accused of supporting a man whose agenda was to Islamise Nigeria.
And in Rivers state they began to call me `Alhaji Rotimi Chibuike Amaechi’. I thank you because they have dropped the `Alhaji’ and back to Mr Chibuike Amaechi,’’ he said.
Amaechi said some persons initially thought that the president would be an autocratic leader only for him to turn out to be an “extreme democrat’’.
 
Quote
“I was told in the course of the campaign that you were autocratic and therefore you would not be democratic. Most of us are not happy that you have moved from your autocratic nature to an extreme democrat that everything puts to test of the people, to the extent that the people now feel that the only way things can go on in this country is by the rule of law.
“We all know that the rule of law is the beginning and the end of this government. Talking about the financial impunity that we saw before, people were making money without having any productive capacity for that’’ he said

These are contained in a post on the Ogun Daily Core’s whatsApp by Mr Tunde Oladunjoye. He added: “Not done, Amosun left a huge hip of sand and a bulldozer at the entrance. The question is: Would this have happened is it is Amosun’s puppet that is to be inaugurated as Governor?”

2face Idibia accuses COSON of corruption, collecting royalties on behalf of members - lailasnews

2face Idibia took to his Instagram page to write a lengthy post on COSON.



He wrote;
Quote
‘From the figures share recently, COSON has lost about N250m to the crisis that erupted with the December 7, 2017 sacking of Chief Tony Okoroji as chairman.
The society collected N200m less than the sum of the previous year and spent over N50m on lawsuits and office security within the year.
Simple compliance with the NCC’s directives or submission to the wide call for independent audit to prove the innocence of the directors against allegations of financial misconduct may have saved COSON at least, N230m, that’s assuming the audit cost N20m.
To worsen issues, the license don kuku expire sef making it criminal for COSON to demand and collect royalties on behalf of members.
Then today we see this: “With respect to the COSON mandate to carry on its operations … COSON has been assured by its team of lawyers that with the various issues still awaiting determination at various courts and with the recent decisions of the Supreme Court of Nigeria, no one has the power to unilaterally stop the operations of COSON.” “Lawyers”, “various issues”, “various courts”…because of simple forensic audit?
Musician work, lawyer and police chop everything finish. My people, no be one chance we don enter so o? If you ask me, na who I go ask? “

Florence Otedola AKA DJ Cuppy was in Germany recently for the GlobalCitizen convention and apparently, at a moment during the event, she was given a chance to address the audience.



Cuppy shared a part of her speech where she talked about one of the problems of the country which she feels should be tackled. According to Cuppy, a high percentage of people residing in Nigeria don’t have access to clean water and so she wants the issue dealt with.
Cuppy was obviously trying to do her part in making the country a better place but it seems her speech didn’t sit well with many as they felt the singer should’ve touched on other pressing issues rather than just water.



One of the people who didn’t feel Cuppy’s speech is rapper, CDQ and so he took to the comment section to talk to her,
Other users who tackled the rapper and were in favour of Cuppy, stated that the points he raised are not one to be tackled by non-governmental organizations but the government of a country.

6592  Forum / Naijapals Base (Metro life) / MASSOB's 19th Bloody Anniversary : 2 Killed, 15 Injured, 10 Arrested In Onitsha on: 23-05-2019 10:57 AM

In what looks like a tradition, the 19th anniversary celebration of the Chief Ralph Uwazuruike-led Biafra Independence Movement, BIM, yesterday, turned bloody in Onitsha and environs as two BIM  members were allegedly  shot dead by the Police.
The celebration also led to the arrest of no fewer than 10 members of the movement, just as about 15 of them sustained various degrees of bullet wounds.
Reacting to the incident, the Ogbaru Regional Administrator of BIM, Amadi Ifeanyi, aka Ochiagha, told newsmen they were hoisting their flag at about 2a.m. yesterday morning at Upper Iweka axis in preparation for the anniversary when the Police stormed the place in three Hilux vans and opened fire on them which resulted in the instant death of  two of their members.
According to the Regional Administrator, “they arrested 10 of us and over 15 got bullet wounds, even when they knew that we are a non-violent organisation struggling for a Biafran state.”
Amadi, who spoke through his Director of Finance in Ogbaru, Ezeaka Martins, demanded the release of the corpses of their members, even as he identified those killed as Innocent Okoye and Uche Ezinwanne.
Also speaking, Chuks Nnaedozie, the Ogbaru Director of Security, gave the names of those injured and hospitalised as Clifford Nwankwo, Ndubuisi Ikpeazu, Aloy Ibeh, and others yet to be identified.
In his reaction, the Regional administrator for Onitsha North, Christian Umeaka, added that one of his members has not been seen since he was arrested by the Police when he went to hoist  the flag, adding that no amount of intimidation would stop them from struggling for a Biafran state.
Attempt to get the police to react to the allegation proved abortive as the DPO incharge of the area could not be reached.

6593  Forum / Naijapals Base (Metro life) / Nigeria May Slide Back To Recession - CBN Gov, Godwin Emefiele Warns on: 23-05-2019 10:42 AM

Governor of Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Mr. Godwin Emefiele has raised the alarm that the country might  slide back to recession except urgent measures are taken to address the high rate of unemployment.
He said the country has made progress in the year under review but more efforts  were needed to reduce the staggering unemployment rate.

Quote
“From some of my concluding remarks, you may have observed whether you like it or not, there is global uncertainty that will unfortunately most certainly lead to another crisis.
“The question could be, how are we, as Nigerians, particularly our leaders, I’m talking of monetary and fiscal policy authority, preparing our country for the next set of crisis?
“We have luckily exited recession, we have seen recession pending downward to about 18.72 percent in 2017 to about 11. 37 percent today.
“We have seen reserves moving up but unfortunately, we still have issues and those issues bother around unemployment rate and those issues bother around how do we prepare our country,” he said.


He expressed his concerns when he delivered the Eminent Persons’ Lecture Series  with the theme: “Beyond the global financial crisis: Monetary policy under global uncertainty” at the University of Benin, yesterday.
The warning came exactly a week after he alerted Nigerians to expect tough and rough years.
“The road ahead is tough and rough. I want to appeal to our people to respect the policies of the country. We always put good policies in place, but implementation is a problem," he stated when he appeared before the Senate Committee on Banking, Insurance and other Financial Institutions, as part of his reconfirmation hearing, blamed part of the country’s woes on disrespect for the rule of law.
Emefiele, who explained how the CBN led the country out of recession, however, warned that going forward, saboteurs and others who flout economic policies of the government will be prosecuted. He said despite the policies put in place by the Federal Government, implementation was always a challenge.
He also warned against the nation’s growing population and explained that if not properly managed, it will become a liability.
