Manchester City striker Kelechi Iheanacho says he is ready to fight for his place in the team, amidst competition from Gabriel Jesus and Sergio Aguero.<br />
<br />

<br />
The 20-year-old Nigeria international has scored seven goals this season, but has found first-team chances harder to come by than during his debut campaign.<br />
<br />
In spite of only five English Premier League starts this season, Iheanacho welcomes the extra competition and insists he is improving by playing alongside great players.<br />
<br />
“I cannot pretend that I don’t hear what people back home [in Nigeria] say about my lack of regular football, but I will continue to fight,” Iheanacho said on Saturday. “I don’t worry about those comments. All I need to do is to keep working, keep doing well and keep improving every day.<br />
<br />
“Sergio Aguero and Gabriel [Jesus] are really really great players that we need in our team. “As a young player, I’m happy playing alongside these fantastic players because I learn and get better every day. “It’s a big thing for my career to compete with these players. I’m okay with the way things are going and I wish Gabriel a quick recovery to return and help the team.” Iheanacho scored 14 times and produced seven assists last season even though 25 of his 36 appearances were as a substitute.<br />
<br />
That feat saw him finish as City’s third-highest scorer in all competitions, behind Sergio Aguero and Kevin de Bruyne. At international level, Iheanacho has scored five goals in eight appearances for Nigeria since making his senior debut against Swaziland in November 2015. He starred as Nigeria won the 2013 FIFA U-17 World Cup in the United Arab Emirates for a record fourth-time. He emerged as the tournament’s outstanding player, being voted the Most Valuable Player. Iheanacho scored six goals to secure the Silver Boot as the competition’s second-highest goal-scorer.

The Divisional Police Officer (DPO), Ogidi Police Station, Mr Hassan Musa, who confirmed the incident, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) that the hoodlums collected the AK47 riffle the deceased was carrying.<br />
<br />
He said that the incident occurred at about 2.45 p.m. at a police road block near Ugwunwasike Roundabout in Ogidi, where a police team was conducting “stop and search”.<br />

The Presidential committee to investigate corruption allegations against the two suspended officials of the Buhari administration says it will conduct its work in camera.<br />
<a name='more' id="more"></a><br />
<br />
A statement by the Vice President’s Spokesman, Mr Laolu Akande, on Saturday in Abuja said that the camera sitting of the committee would enable all parties in the matter to make full disclosures.<br />
<br />
President Muhammadu Buhari had named Vice President Yemi Osinbajo to head the panel to investigate the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Babachir Lawal and Director-General of National Intelligence Agency (NIA), Ayo Oke.<br />
<br />
Lawal was accused of legal and due process violations in the award of contracts to companies handling the resettlement programmes in Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) camps in the North-East.<br />
<br />
Oke was also accused of transgressions in the discovery of large amounts in foreign and local currencies by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) in an apartment in Ikoyi, Lagos.<br />
<br />
“In the discharge of its work, the panel is expected to invite all relevant officials and private individuals who may be connected to both cases.<br />
<br />
“It will also obtain and scrutinize documents that may throw some light on the issues raised in both cases.<br />
<br />
“All its proceedings will, however, be in closed sessions to avoid speculations, allow for full disclosure and enhance the pace of proceedings,’’ the statement said.<br />
<br />
It said that the committee had begun its work in earnest to be able to meet the two weeks deadline given to it by Buhari.<br />
<br />
According to the statement, the panel will conduct its work with utmost diligence and without fear or favour.<br />
<br />
In the three-member committee with Osinbajo are the Attorney-General and Justice Minister, Abubakar Malami and National Security Adviser, Maj.-Gen. Babagana Munguno (retd).

<br />
Five people have been arrested by Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) for various alleged registration infractions in the ongoing 2017 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) to be conducted by the Joint Admissions and Matriculations Board (JAMB).<br />
<br />
<a name='more' id="more"></a><br />
<br />
The suspected fraudsters were arrested in Oyo, Ogun and Borno States by officers and men of the NSCDC and brought to Abuja where they are being interrogated. In the presence of the Commandant General, Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps Abdullahi Gana Mohamadu, the suspects reportedly confessed to numerous registration irregularities.<br />
<br />
Some of the suspects are Computer-Based Test (CBT) centres owners licensed by JAMB to conduct registration exercise for candidates planning to take the forthcoming examination, a statement by JAMB spokesperson, Fabian Benjamin, said.<br />
<br />
Mr. Benjamin added, “More worrisome is the massive investment by E- Kindle CBT centres to penetrate the airtel system we are using to perpetrate all forms of wholesome practices. They register candidates without proper biometric which means such candidates will have problems with their details during examination if not corrected immediately.<br />
<br />
“From investigation at the headquarters of the NSCDC, it was clear that they had powerful men backing them to thwart the efforts of JAMB. If not, how will you justify them spending over N20 million to construct a radio platform just to hack into the Board’s registration exercise if not to destroy the entire system and put JAMB in bad light?<br />
<br />
“Some of the location from which these criminal elements were operating include Oyo state, Ogun state and Kwara.<br />
<br />
“JAMB had given access code only to accredited CBT centres to partake in the registration exercise but these operators in turn used the privilege information at their disposal in connivance with Honey comb centre and Bright international for pecuniary motive and create confusion for the examination body as procedures,guidelines and standards were compromised.<br />
<br />
“In Maiduguri, the Board discovered that their router meant for Abia was being used in Maiduguri to register candidates<br />
<br />
“Unknown to them, the access codes are personalised coupled with features to detect abuses aimed at circumventing the registration process. They fradulently tried to manipulate the system to give a semblance of the Board platform to deceive candidates as if a valid registration have been carried out.<br />
“These registration thieves deployed fake biometric capturing mechanisms and super-imposed registration slip just to satisfy the curiosity of innocent candidates that their registration was successful and on the day of examination such candidates data would either be edited,or not found on the JAMB data base, such candidates would not be verified during the examination proper.<br />
<br />
“This investigation has clearly shown that the Board under Prof. Is-haq Oloyede may be in for a bigger fight given his stand on anti-corruption.”

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div>
<div class="MsoNormal"></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">Ghanaian Actor, Chris Attoh has declared he’s not bothered about the numerous online report that suggests his marriage to Nigerian actress, Damilola Adegbite has crashed. </div>
<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="more" id="more"></a>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">According to him, he was not perturbed about of the reports because his home is still intact. 
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHnTgzvISPrwR-wNwl7BrDO9x6dj83TYfmKZ9oZ32rumDxfXgUzJ3jmVPw5Fuf0CMuwu5Mb52UhLYtaNYp-n0bgIcVWlajz_l9nDQtJVWakc2umVzTh-CWpj-cTR-KD3nWE0WI3hQfhL0/s1600/chris+nd+wifey.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHnTgzvISPrwR-wNwl7BrDO9x6dj83TYfmKZ9oZ32rumDxfXgUzJ3jmVPw5Fuf0CMuwu5Mb52UhLYtaNYp-n0bgIcVWlajz_l9nDQtJVWakc2umVzTh-CWpj-cTR-KD3nWE0WI3hQfhL0/s400/chris+nd+wifey.png" width="298" /></a></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">Recall, in March this year, there were reports that Damilola had walked out of the marriage. The divorce reports gained weight after Chris posted several photos of his wife on social media, wishing her a happy second wedding anniversary on February 14, but Damilola failed to respond or do same. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div><br /></div>
<div>Well, putting to rest the numerous reports, Chris, in an interview with KMJ on Daybreak Hitz on Hitz FM said his wife “is wonderful,” and “she is currently in London. She just launched her Alpha Woman project which helps to empower women”.</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>Asked about the numerous divorce reports, the ‘Shuga’ star noted that, </div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">“I don’t hear them, I don’t read them. I’m too focused; I can’t be too bothered with all these… what is important is in front of me.”</blockquote>
<div>While many felt Damilola’s failure to comment on his wedding anniversary post on Instagram meant the marriage had hit the rocks, Chris noted, he got a perfect response from his wife.</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: start;"></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">“I got my response. The response doesn’t have to be on Instagram. I remember speaking to her that evening…” because I was in South Africa then, he stated.</blockquote>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: start;"></div>
<div>He observed that their busy schedules often keep them apart but that hasn’t affected their marriage.</div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">“Because of what we do we try to have time for each other as often as we can. It’s tough because sometimes I might be away for two, three months but that’s usually the interval. When she can come, she comes, when I can go, I go…”</blockquote>
<div style="text-align: start;"></div>
<div style="text-align: start;"><a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="more" id="more"></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">In the awake of the divorce reports, it was rumoured that Chris’ family, particularly his sisters, were not in support of the marriage to the Nollywood actress but he refuted the reports quizzing </div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">“why will there be anything like that?”</blockquote>

<br />
Eden Hazard came off the bench to help inspire Chelsea to a 4-2 victory over Tottenham and send them into the FA Cup final.<br />
<a name='more' id="more"></a><br />
<br />
Willian opened the scoring for Chelsea in the fifth minute with a brilliant free kick that sailed past the wall and into Hugo Lloris' far corner.<br />
<br />
Tottenham, though, drew level after 18 minutes when Harry Kane connected superbly with Christian Eriksen's cross to send a backwards header into the bottom corner.<br />
<br />
Chelsea were back ahead two minutes before the break, with Willian sending Lloris the wrong from the penalty spot after Son Heung-Min had tripped Victor Moses inside the box.<br />
<br />
Seven minutes into the second half, however, and Tottenham were level again, with Eriksen picking out the run of Dele Alli with a fine ball before the midfielder then half-volleyed into the top corner.<br />
<br />
But 15 minutes from the end, Hazard scored Chelsea's third, picking up the ball on the edge of the box after Tottenham cleared a corner and then drilling an effort into the bottom corner.<br />
<br />
And five minutes later, Nemanja Matic made sure of the result for Chelsea, receiving the ball from Hazard before thumping a stunning first-time effort into the top corner.<br />

Kiss Daniel's label mate, Sugar boy accused of song theft ahead of maiden album debut

<div class="MsoNormal"></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">As Kiss Daniel’s label mate and G-Worldwide music act, Sugar Boy, debuts his maiden album today, it is being welcomed by a controversy. A certain artiste, Barz, has called out the musician, claiming that he stole his song, ‘Kilamiti,’ which is featured on his album.<a name='more' id="more"></a></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">According to Barz, he featured the G-Worldwide artiste on the song ‘Kilamiti’ in 2016, only for Sugar Boy to steal the song from him.</div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal"></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">Barz said, </div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: justify;">“I have known Sugarboy for almost six years. He was always the happy go lucky type, upbeat and seemingly content. We had good times in the past. Honestly, I’m quite shocked. This same person used to mentor me in a sense back in the day.<br />
He produced the first official song I ever released under a record label, ‘Morenike’ featuring Chuddy K. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: justify;">“When I was in school, we were always in touch and he used to send me beats regularly to see if I’d like anyone of them and pick to do a song. Sometimes he would freestyle on them to give some sort of insight as to what he was thinking when he made the beat, so for him coming over to my present studio and free styling was business as usual.<br />
This comes as a shocker. He was fully aware of the progress of the song; he came over to the house a couple of times and listened to the finished work. He loved it! He was fully aware of its release as a single and also the release of the video last year and gave his consent. You don’t just feel you can do something with a song you made with someone and go ahead to drop the exact same thing without reaching out to the person even once.<br />
Nothing is right about it! The song was released June 2016 and it was met with rave reviews from the fans.”</blockquote>
<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal"></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">The obviously pained artiste said that he had contacted the management of Sugarboy but they sounded unapologetic about the matter. He further threatened to sue if they do not do the right thing.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: justify;">“As it stands right now, going by the callous and unapologetic manner he and his camp have replied us, a court hearing seems imminent in ensuring this issue is settled,” he said.</blockquote>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">When Sugarboy’s manager, Louisa Williams, she told Saturday Beats that they were aware of the situation. She added that if Barz felt he has a case, he should instruct his lawyers to write a letter to them or take the case to court.</div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: justify;">“We have been waiting for his lawyers to write us because he has been saying all sorts of things. We don’t really have anything to say now; all we want is for him to instruct his lawyers to write us. Then they should also explain if we ever authorised their company to release our artistes’ song, ‘Change it’ and begin to claim that he featured Sugarboy.</blockquote>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"> When an upcoming artiste is desperate for fame, they release a song they had done with a celebrity years back without being bothered if the celebrity wants to eventually release the song or not.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"> We never authorized them to do it but if he is very sure that we stole his song, their lawyers should write us and they should take the case to court,” she said.</div>

<br />
Real Madrid host the Clasico on Sunday in a clash which could have a major impact on La Liga’s title race.<br />
<a name='more' id="more"></a><br />
<br />
The home side will be full of confidence following their 4-2 Champions League quarter-final win over Bayern Munich in midweek. Cristiano Ronaldo scored a hat-trick while Marco Asensio added another.<br />
<br />
Barcelona were dumped out of the competition after being held to a 0-0 draw at the Nou Camp, losing the two-legged tie 3-0 on aggregate.<br />
<br />
A win for Luis Enrique’s side would see them move level on points with Real Madrid, although crucially, Real Madrid still have a game in hand.<br />
<br />
Given the two sides’ form, Real Madrid should be considered heavy favorites. Zidane’s side are unbeaten in 12 while Barcelona have one win in their last four matches.<br />
<br />
The two sides drew 1-1 in the reverse fixture back in December. Luis Suarez opened the scoring for Barcelona before Sergio Ramos equalised at the death.<br />
<br />
<b>Team news</b><br />
<b><br /></b>Gareth Bale is a doubt for the hosts with a calf strain, while centre-backs Raphael Varane and Pepe remain sidelined<br />
<br />
Barcelona will be without Neymar who is serving a suspension, meaning Alcacer could come into the starting eleven.<br />
<br />
Rafinha and Aleix Vidal are long-term absentees.<br />
<br />
<b>Match Facts</b><br />
<br />
<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>The Whites have only lost twice in the last six El Clásico games at Santiago Bernabéu (W3 D1 – all competitions) – the last one ended in a 4-0 win on November 2015 with Benítez as Madrid’s boss.</li>
<li>Real Madrid have not lost in the last two El Clásicos La Liga games (W1 D1), their best unbeaten run against Barcelona since March 2013, with Mourinho as manager.</li>
<li>Real Madrid have scored in each of their last 43 La Liga games. Only Barcelona in 2013 have had a longer streak than this, scoring in 64 consecutive games.</li>

<br />
Arsenal will be looking to reach their fourth final in three seasons when they take on Manchester City in Sunday’s semi-final at Wembley.<br />
<br />
<a name='more' id="more"></a><br />
<br />
The Gunners returned to winning ways with a nervy 2-1 win at Middlesbrough on Monday. Having seen his side drop down to 7th in the Premier League table, Arsene Wenger switched things up for the first time in an age and played with three at the back.<br />
<br />
Goals from Alexis Sanchez and Mesut Ozil handed the Gunners a confidence-boosting victory ahead of Sunday’s match.<br />
<br />
Having failed to win any of their previous four matches, Man City won for the second match in a row last Saturday.<br />
<br />
Goals from Vincent Kompany, Leroy Sane and Sergio Aguero secured a vital 3-0 win at Southampton that keeps Pep Guardiola’s side in the driving seat for the fourth and final Champions League place.<br />
<br />
Despite their poor run of form, Arsenal will take confidence from their recent record at Wembley. Since 2014, Arsenal have won all of their six matches at national stadium, including the 2014 and 2015 FA Cup finals.<br />
<br />
Team news<br />
It’s likely that Wenger will revert to a back-four on Sunday, but the Frenchman will be keeping his options open.<br />
<br />
Cup goalkeeper David Ospina is ruled out with a back injury, meaning Petr Cech will keep his place between the sticks.<br />
<br />
Danny Welbeck has trained but will face a late fitness test following a minor toe injury.<br />
<br />
Shkodran Mustafi remains on the sidelines, along with “longer term” absentee Lucas Perez.<br />
<br />
Bacary Sagna is a doubt to face his former club with a groin strain.<br />
<br />
John Stones has been ruled out with a muscular problem but Gabriel Jesus could be involved after returning to training.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>TEAM NEWS</b><br />
<br />
Arsenal must face Manchester City on Sunday without injured quintet Shkodran Mustafi, Danny Welbeck, Lucas Perez, David Ospina and Santi Cazorla.<br />
<br />
Manager Arsene Wenger could keep the three-man defence he used for Monday's league win at Middlesbrough.<br />
<br />
Manchester City forward Gabriel Jesus is included in the squad, only 10 weeks after breaking a bone in his foot.<br />
<br />
John Stones has failed to recover from the muscle injury that ruled him out of last week's game at Southampton.<br />
<br />
<b><br /></b><b>MATCH FACTS</b><br />
<b><br /></b><b>Head-to-head</b><br />
<br />
This will be the fourth FA Cup tie between the clubs, and the first since 1971 when Arsenal won in the fifth round en route to lifting the trophy.<br />
The sides drew 2-2 for the third time in six meetings earlier this month, with Manchester City twice relinquishing the lead in a Premier League match at the Emirates Stadium.<br />

<br />
<b>Manchester City</b><br />

<br />
Yakubu Kibo, the state commander of the agency, confirmed the development to journalists in Yola, the Adamawa State capital.<br />

Governor Abiola Ajimobi of Oyo State has appealed to the police to clamp down on the murderous herdsmen and kidnappers disturbing the peace of the country with the same intensity it crushed the Boko Haram insurgents.<br />
<a name='more' id="more"></a><br />
<br />
Ajimobi made the appeal through his Deputy, Chief Alake Adeyemo, while receiving the Deputy Inspector-General of Police in charge of Southwest, Mr. Foluso Adebanjo in Ibadan, the state capital.<br />
<br />
<br />
Ajimobi restated the need for the police to continue to collaborate with other security and intelligence agencies across the country to overcome the menace of kidnappers and herdsmen ravaging the country.<br />
<br />
He emphasised the need for unity and peaceful coexistence among citizens, saying it was only in an atmosphere of peace that businesses could thrive and investors can be attracted at this period that the country’s economy was tottering.<br />
<br />
Ajimobi, however, expressed appreciation to the officers and men of the police at the state command for their unrelenting efforts at fostering a secured state, which, he said, was the foundation of economic viability.<br />
<br />
<br />
“Our first priority on assumption of office in 2011 was to foster peaceful atmosphere in the state. We are happy today that Oyo State is one of the most secured in the country.<br />
<br />
“We want to appeal to the police authority to replicate the collaborative efforts employed in overcoming the Boko Haram menace in battling herdsmen crisis as well as the recent spate of kidnapping in the country.<br />
<br />
“The economy of this country can only improve in an atmosphere that is peaceful for businesses and living. We cannot do businesses in an insecure environment. Similarly, we will be scaring investors away when the environment is not peaceful.”<br />
<br />
<br />
The DIG earlier in his remarks commended the governor for sustaining the peaceful environment he enthroned on assumption of office in 2011.<br />
<br />
He said he was touring the Southwest to assess the level of security and to interact with the stakeholders on the state of affairs.<br />
<br />
The police boss added that the meetings were also aimed at discussing mutual efforts required to bolster security situation within the zone.<br />
<br />
“Oyo is one of the states the Inspector-General of Police (Ibrahim Idris) loves because of its peculiar peaceful atmosphere.<br />
He directed all DIGs to visit all their zones within two weeks to have on-the-spot assessment of security situations in each state.<br />
<br />
“I have met with security stakeholders in the state like the Police Community Relation Committee (PCRC), Eminent People’s Forum, and traditional institution, among others to discuss how to maintain the current peaceful atmosphere in Oyo State.<br />
<br />
“On our part, we will continue to discharge our responsibilities with strict adherence to the sanctity of human rights. We have warned our men that any police officer found to have used his weapons to kill or maim innocent citizens would be tried within 48 hours of such incident.”<br />
<br />
He added that adequate policing was a joint responsibility of the security agencies and the entire citizenry, appealing to members of the society to contribute their quota towards the attainment of peaceful coexistence of all.

“I acknowledge the fact that the EFCC has the constitutional right to investigate anybody they suspect, it is, however not true that I have been evading the commission. My lawyers are in touch with the EFCC and the commission is aware of this, so it is not true that I am evading the commission.<br />
<br />
“I want to categorically state that the claim that another N2 billion in a UBA account reportedly linked to me is untrue and figment of some people's imagination who want to use the media to drag my name to the mud.<br />
<br />
“I was Chairman of my Local Government with outstanding performances and an Honourable Commissioner for seven months. How could I have siphoned such amount and pushed to companies as an individual from the government agency as claimed by the medias?, ” he asked.<br />
<br />
Kantigi urged the media to confirm from the banks and fault him if he was lying adding that the media reports was being orchestrated by people who would want to spoil his name and associate his name with anything bad by all means.<br />
<br />
Kantigi appealed to his supporters to disregard all the news trending about him in the media stressing that they are false and unfounded and urge the media to cross their facts very well before rushing to the public.

Manchester United striker, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, has been ruled out of action until next year.<br />
<a name='more' id="more"></a><br />
<br />
The 35-year-old has reportedly suffered serious ligaments damage in his right knee and might not play again until January 2018 at the earliest, sources have told ESPN.<br />
<br />
Ibrahimovic underwent scans in Manchester on Friday, after sustaining the injury during United’s 2-1 win over Anderlecht in the Europa League on Thursday.<br />
<br />
Italian sports journalist, Gianluca Di Marzio, earlier reported that the Swedish striker suffered damage to his cruciate ligament.<br />
<br />
The injury has now placed doubts over Ibrahimovic’s future at the club, with this contract at Old Trafford due to expire at the end of this season.<br />
<br />
Ibrahimovic has scored 28 goals in 46 appearances for United, since arriving on a free transfer from Paris Saint-Germain last summer.<br />
<br />
He is expected to undergo surgery followed by a rehabilitation programme.<br />

President Muhammadu Buhari has congratulated the Director-General of the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA), Dr. Dakuku Peterside on his election as the new Chairman of the Association of African Maritime Administrators (AAMA).<br />
<a name='more' id="more"></a><br />
<br />
The president’s congratulatory message was issued in a statement by Mr Femi Adesina, Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, on Saturday in Abuja.<br />
<br />
Buhari said: “Peterside’s unanimous election is not only a personal honour and affirmation of confidence in his ability to lead AAMA, but also places Nigeria in a pivotal position to rally other maritime administrations in collaboration with the International Maritime Organization (IMO) toward safer global maritime activities.’’<br />
<br />
He acknowledged NIMASA’s encouraging performance under Peterside, especially in the fight against sea piracy through inter-agency cooperation.<br />
<br />
According to the president, Peterside’s new position provides him with an even bigger platform to forge ahead in doing the nation proud by meeting the objectives of AAMA.<br />
<br />
While wishing the new Chairman of AAMA successful one-year tenure, he expressed confidence that within this period, the Federal Government’s renewed focus on growing the Nigerian economy through increased maritime resources would be further enhanced.<br />
<br />
Dakuku Peterside emerged chairman of AAMA at the end of the 3rd Annual Conference of the continental organisation in Abuja on Friday.<br />
<br />
Peterside took over the chairmanship position from Sobantu Tilayi, the acting Chief Executive Officer of South African Maritime and Safety Agency (SAMSA), who has been the acting Chair of the association since 2013.

‘She Overplayed Her Game’ – #BBNaija Gifty’s Boyfriend Mr 2Kay Breaks Silence

14:19 Unknown 0

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">In a new interview, the singer confirmed his relationship with the ex-housemate, adding that he thinks she overdid her performance at the house all just to win the prize money.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Recall that Gifty was evicted on February 19 during the weekly eviction show. After the actress returned to Nigeria, she was called out for denying her marriage to a film producer, an allegation she had denied but later owned up to.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Now, Mr 2Kay has affirmed that they are dating. He however thinks she overplayed her game at the house, and we wonder if he meant her relationship with male housemate, Soma.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">On his relationship with Gifty:</span></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">“I do not womanise because I am a one man, one woman type of guy. Gift is my girlfriend and everybody should know about that. You see us together all the time and I never denied her for any reason. However I did not want to say so much because I did not want to say things that would make her go out of the house. However, she is my very good friend and we have been friends for a very long time. I had known her since 2013 and I knew her through my manager, Energy. We spoke on the phone several times before we became close. Then it was Blackberry that was in vogue, so we used to chat a lot and that was how I got to know her.”</span></blockquote>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">On what he thinks of her performance at the house:</span></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">“Her performance at the Big Brother house was all a game and she had to do anything to get the money. That was her strategy but she actually overplayed it. We are all humans and we make mistakes which we can correct. I don’t know what I would have done if I was in her shoes, so I cannot judge her. I could have done worse things but the camera was not on me.</span></blockquote>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">On what he feels about her now:</span></div>
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">“It does not matter that she did not bring home the N25m. She is still a winner and N25m is nothing, I can tell you that it is nothing because I know I make more than that in less than three months from my music on Music Plus, so it is nothing.”</span></blockquote>

<br />
Former Nigeria captain, Austin  Okocha, has advised his nephew, Alex Iwobi, to stay and fight for a first-team place at Arsenal rather than leaving on loan.<br />
<a name='more' id="more"></a><br />
<br />
After regularly starting games earlier in the season, Iwobi, 20, has found opportunities harder to come by in 2017.<br />
<br />
Recently, he featured for Arsenal's U-23s who beat Reading 5-2.<br />
<br />
Reacting to Iwobi's present situation at Arsenal, Okocha thinks staying at Arsenal would benefit the young forward.<br />
<br />
"We can't forget that this is his first full season in the first team, and Arsenal have all their players back now. There's a lot of competition, so it's not easy," Okocha told Sky Sports.<br />
<br />
"He has had a good season. It's not easy to make it through from the academy into the first team at such a big club. He has achieved this, and has been phenomenal; I am delighted with what he has achieved so far.<br />
<br />
"I think it's better for him to stay at Arsenal, because the style of play suits him perfectly. It might not be easy for him to go on loan and adapt somewhere else. He needs to stay and fight for his shirt."<br />
<br />
Meanwhile, Okocha will be one of a host of former Premier League stars that will compete at Star Sixes, an indoor six-a-side tournament in July 2017.<br />
<br />
Other former EPL players expected to participate include Steven Gerrard, Carles Puyol, Michael Ballack, Deco and Robert Pires.<br />
<br />
Speaking about the event, Okocha said: "I'm very excited for it. I think I will be in my comfort zone.<br />
<br />
"Everybody is looking forward to showing that we can still play a little bit. There are a lot of good players and it will be interesting.<br />
<br />
"It's all about meeting old colleagues, having fun and competing again without too much pressure. It's going to be fun."</div>

<br />
The Deputy Governorship candidate of the People Democratic Party (PDP) in the 2015 Governorship election in Niger state, Alhaji Liman Kantigi has denied ownership of the N2 billion in a United Bank for Africa (UBA) account linked to him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).<br />
<br />
<a name='more' id="more"></a><br />
<br />
According to Kantigi, he is not aware of the said account traced to a company account titled Liman and companies in UBA stating that he is neither a Director nor a Stakeholder in the company.<br />
<br />
“For God sake, the media ought to have confirm from the banks if truly my names are there as their customer? I am not a Director of such companies nor Share holder. ”<br />
<br />
In a statement made available to The Nation in Minna, Kantigi also denied allegations that he has been evading the EFCC regarding the linked account adding that some group of people have decided to use the media to smear his character as a businessman and politician.<br />
“I acknowledge the fact that the EFCC has the constitutional right to investigate anybody they suspect, it is, however not true that I have been evading the commission. My lawyers are in touch with the EFCC and the commission is aware of this, so it is not true that I am evading the commission.<br />
<br />
“I want to categorically state that the claim that another N2 billion in a UBA account reportedly linked to me is untrue and figment of some peoples imagination who want to use the media to drag my name to the mud.<br />
“I was Chairman of my Local Government with outstanding performances and a Honourable Commissioner for seven months. How could I have siphoned such amount and pushed to companies as an individual from the government agency as claimed by the medias?, ” he asked.<br />
Kantigi urged the media to confirm from the banks and fault him if he was lying adding that the media reports was being orchestrated by people who would want to spoil his name and associate his name with anything bad by all means.<br />
<br />
Kantigi appealed to his supporters to disregard all the news trending about him in the media stressing that they are false and unfounded and urge the media to cross their facts very well before rushing to the public.

“The rating agencies outlook on Nigeria is stable, there is a  generally, I think the essence is to get their views. There is general consensus that Nigerian economy will grow in 2017,” Adeosun said.<br />

“And when we leave here now we are going to look on how to implement what we discussed agriculture inclusive.<br />

“Today we are going to discuss power because power on its own can transform the man on the street or having an improvement in his standard of living. Power alone can transform our GDP growth and improve the economy.”

<br />
More than 100 Afghan soldiers were killed or wounded in a Taliban attack on an army base on Friday, the defence ministry has confirmed.<br />
<a name='more' id="more"></a><br />
<br />
Fighting lasted several hours near the city of Mazar-e Sharif in northern Balkh province, the BBC reports.<br />
<br />
Insurgents targeted those leaving Friday prayers at the base’s mosque and others in a canteen, the army said.<br />
<br />
The Taliban said in a statement they had carried out the attack, using suicide bombers to breach defences.<br />
<br />
Earlier estimates put the death toll as high as 134, but a statement from the defence ministry on Saturday gave a figure of about 100 killed or injured.<br />
<br />
At least 10 Taliban militants were killed in the fighting and one attacker was detained.<br />
<br />
The Taliban fighters wore army uniforms and drove through military checkpoints before launching the raid, a military spokesman said.<br />
<br />
United States military spokesman, John Thomas, described the attack as a “significant” strike, but he praised the Afghan commandos for bringing the “atrocity to an end.”<br />
<br />
The base at Mazar-e-Sharif is home to the Afghan National Army’s 209th Corps, responsible for providing security to most of northern Afghanistan, including Kunduz province – which has seen heavy recent fighting.
