Manchester United Manager José Mourinho Speaks About Romelu Lukaku, Zlatan Ibrahimovic

Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has admitted Romelu Lukaku is unlikely to get a rest until Zlatan Ibrahimovic returns from injury. Lukaku has made a flying start to his Old Trafford career with 10 goals in his first nine games, including two against CSKA Moscow on Wednesday. The Champions League clash in Russia was his 11th game of the season after also appearing in two World Cup qualifiers for Belgium last month. Lukaku hasn't missed a minute in the Premier League or the Champions League. And Mourinho concedes the 24-year-old's workload will not get lighter until Ibrahimovic returns, which the United boss has suggested may not be until the new year. "Without Zlatan we cannot rotate the striker, especially because Marcus Rashford is playing also in other positions," Mourinho said ahead of Crystal Palace's visit to Old Trafford on Saturday. "So until the moment we have Zlatan we cannot think about giving rest to our No. 9, the same way we give

Pep Guardiola Speaks On Sergio Aguero's Car Accident, Other Manchester City Challenges

Sergio Aguero has nothing to apologise for after going to Amsterdam for a pop concert on his day off from Manchester City, according to Pep Guardiola, even though he had no idea he was there.

Guardiola only found out on Friday morning Aguero had travelled abroad for the concert starring Colombian singer Maluma but he insists the striker has no reason to say sorry and the accident was just an unfortunate part of life, comparing his misfortune to the loss of French international Benjamin Mendy to a knee injury. “I didn’t speak with him.

Popular Christian Cleric Warns President Buhari About 2019 Presidential Election

The General Overseer of the Inri Evangelical Spiritual Church, Lagos, Elijah Ayodele, has advised president Buhari to step down in 2019, even as he predicated that Nigeria will breakup into five entities by 2035. The cleric, who announced the prophesies at the press presentation of his book of prophesies, Warnings to the Nations, in Lagos, stated that the 2019 elections would spring up surprises. He said the clamour for restructuring by APC won’t work, but the people agitating for restructuring will take it up. “Nigeria will be no more from 2035; she will be divided into five nations as from 2035; two of them will be greater than the other three. Nnamdi Kanu will not actualise Biafra, but Biafra will be part of the entities that will lead to the breakup of Nigeria towards 2035. There will be a big referendum and the results will determine what will happen in Nigeria. After the referendum, everyone will go his or her own separate ways and there will be no bloodshed. However, the ar

Are There Any Reasons Nigerian Youths Should Keep On Hoping There Is Better Tomorrow?

Youths, they say are future leaders. Youths are said to be the egg which hatches into a chick. This chick grows to become cockerel and later cock. Nigerian youths are not different from their mates in other climes of the world.  Nigerian youths are however different because they are always fed with the word, “HOPE.” Youths, according to some people fall in the age range of 18-50 years. Suffice to say here that the best and worst hands to have ever managed Nigeria right from independence in 1960 to the present moment were youths. In the words of Mustapha Oladepo, an honourable member of the Federal House of Representatives between 1979 and 1983, he said: ''General Yakubu Gowon (Head of State at 32 years of age) is Nigeria’s best ever Head of State or you call it president.'' On the other hand, the views of a good number of Nigerians on the worst president is between late General Sani Abacha and General Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida (IBB). IBB fondly called

CIVIL WAR: Reconstruction, Rehabilitation, Reconciliation, Any Lesson Learnt By Biafra Agitators?

Biafra agitators are some people from Southeastern part of Nigeria in particular. They are clamouring for their own independent country. The call for this Igbo nation started way back in the 1960s, under the name Biafra. Late Chukwuemeka Odumegu-Ojukwu was the man who started the struggle while he was the Governor of Eastern Nigeria under the regime of Yakubu Gowon (1966-1975). Tempers flared at that time, which led to the civil war. The war broke out in 1967 and ended in 1970. Afterwards, Biafra was forgotten and Nigeria forged ahead. Gowon came up with the three R’s after the war. These were Reconstruction, Rehabilitation and Reconciliation. The idea behind the three R’s was to ensure all measures were taken to make Igbos return to the pre-civil war days of one Nigeria. The leader of the Biafra movement then, Ojukwu went on exile after the war. The administration of president Shehu Shagari granted the Biafra warlord state pardon in 1982. This facilitated his return t

3 Reasons Why Most Men Will Not Marry Some Single Ladies

Currently in Nigeria and in other parts of the world, the number of females is more than males. The difference in the two genders is becoming widening every day. It’s only a person who wants to run away from the truth will say there are more male folks than their female counterparts in Nigeria or in other parts of the world. With this conspicuous gap, some single ladies are still not telling themselves the truth about why they are still single and not marriageable. The funny thing is that these ladies know the truth but don’t want to accept it. Why are there more women or ladies or females more than the other sex orientation? The answers are simple. Naturally, men have shorter lifespan. Also, men go to war and are killed. Different adventures take away men’s lives. Scientifically speaking, the foetus of females is stronger than that of males. Therefore, more male children die during delivery in the labour room. Coming back to the topic of discourse, some single ladies beli
