Some gunmen over thehe weekend, were said to have invaded a mining site at Janruwa Village, Birnin-Gwari Local Government Area of Kaduna State, killing 14 miners, while several others sustained serious injuries. The new attack came barely two weeks after a village head and five others were killed when suspected bandits attacked Sarari village, near Kuriga town in the area. Information has it that the bandits, who attacked the mining site in their hundreds riding on motor bikes, opened fire on everyone in sight. The actual number of people killed could not be ascertained. While some said 40 miners were killed, a source informed Daily Post that only 14 people died with about 30 others injured. A resident, who gave his name as Isa, told newsmen the bandits, after killing the miners, burnt their bodies beyond recognition. “The attack occurred between 12pm and 1pm on Saturday. The bandits, in their hundreds on bikes, stormed the mining site at Janruwa and opened fire on anybody i

It is not the best of times for Nigerians who are trying to move into Canada from the United States of America. As asylum seekers from Nigeria move into Canada across a ditch in Upstate New York, Canadian authorities are telling the United States for help — but not with managing the movement at the border. Instead, they want U.S. immigration officials to reduce the foot traffic by screening Nigerians more stringently before granting them U.S. visas. It is a ripple effect that few expected last summer when people, mostly Haitians, began to walk into Quebec via an “irregular” border crossing north of Plattsburgh, N.Y., and seek refugee status. With the coming of spring, the flow has picked up again. But recently, the asylum seekers have been mostly Ni­ger­ian, and their route to the border is more problematic, Canadian officials say. Many Haitians had lived in the United States for years before suddenly learning they would lose their protected status and fleeing north. But many

Barcelona remain undefeated as they conquer LaLiga with their eighth double Even above and beyond the usual joy of winning a league title, this year is a special one for Barcelona and followers of LaLiga. This was the season in which a side finally beat Real Sociedad's record of 38 games unbeaten. Ernesto Valverde's side drew level against Leganes, 31 games into this season, equalling the Basque side's record set across 1979 and 1980. The Blaugrana combined seven of the final games of last season under Luis Enrique with 31 from 2017/18 under Ernesto Valverde to achieve it. But the run didn't stop there, and Barcelona continue racking up games unbeaten and are now up to 41 without defeat. With the league title now secured, the only doubt will be if Barcelona can do what no side has ever done before in Spain and go a full season unbeaten. It has been done elsewhere, such as in the Premier League, but never in Spain. As things are now, only four sides can

Mohamed Salah may not feature for Liverpool in their remaining two Premier League matches for the current season after he Egyptian forward's encounter with Bruno Martins Indi of Stoke City. The new PFA player of the year, who currently leads the scoring charts with 31 goals to his name, appeared to flail a balled hand towards the Stoke City centre-back during Saturday's 0-0 draw at Anfield. The incident was not spotted by referee Andre Marriner at the time and could therefore be referred to a three-man panel of former officials to rule if it was worthy of a red card. According to The Sun, Football Association chiefs have been alerted to social media clips of the rumpus and Salah's fate is now said to be in their hands. Under FA rules, the PFA Player of the Year will miss the final two league games of this campaign and the first of next season if the panel unanimously decide it was a sending-off offence. The report suggests that Salah will discover by Monday eveni

Manchester United boss, Jose Mourinho has explained the reasons his boys beat Arsenal 2-1 in the English Premier League  game played on Sunday, April 29 at Old Trafford. The Reds were heading towards a frustrating home draw after former Red Devils player, Henrikh Mkhitaryan scored to cancel out Paul Pogba’s opener. Midfielder, Marouane Fellaini beat three Gunners defenders to head past goalkeeper, David Ospina in the 92nd minute of the match to give Mourinho’s side the deserved three points. Mourinho, who completed a Premier League double over Arsenal for the first time since the 2011-12 campaign, said his side were stronger in the last 20 minutes of the match. The United boss believes the victory against Arsene Wenger’s men was well deserved overall. “I think if it was a draw it wouldn’t be unfair. Arsenal did a good game, they defended well, but we were the team that tried to win that created a few more chances,” Mourinho told Sky Sports. “But that is normal. “We were a

DAILY POST learnt that the attackers stormed the village at about 9pm on Saturday and opened fire at residents of the area. Over 15 houses were reportedly set on fire during the attack.

Governor Samuel Ortom will allow the law take its course after the Nigerian Army arrested one of his aides for allegedly masterminding recent killings in Benue State, his top adviser has told PREMIUM TIMES. Aliyu Teshaku, head of Benue Livestock Guards, was arrested on Friday by the the Army’s 707 Special Forces Brigade in Makurdi on suspicion of his involvement in some of the deadly attacks recorded across the state since January 1. The Army said Mr Teshaku was a Boko Haram suspect and his arrest had input from the police and the State Security Service (SSS). Some of the allegations include his alleged involvement in the attack on a Catholic Church on Tuesday in which at least 15 worshipers were killed, including two Catholic priests. But some Benue activists are seeing his arrest as a persecution for his fierce opposition to herdsmen activities in the state. Leaders of Miyetti Allah have repeatedly called for Mr Teshaku’s arrest, accusing him of enforcing the anti-open graz

One time president Chief Olusegun Obasanjo on Saturday, April 28 was amazed on how Nigerian youths could be described as being lazy with all the challenges they face daily due to bad governance. Obasanjo stated that even the great grandfathers of Nigerian youths would never go as far as President Muhammadu Buhari allegedly did to dub Nigerian youths as being lazy. President Buhari allegedly made the comment during a recent trip to United Kingdom at the Heads of Commonwealth summit in London. But Obasanjo, who spoke in Ibadan when the Coalition for Nigeria Movement (CNM) held a Town Hall meeting in the Oyo State capital, wondered how Nigerian youths could be said to be lazy despite what they go through in the Sahara Desert, Libya and the Mediterranean Sea. He said, “But let me assure you of one thing. Having gone this far, I will not leave you high and dry, and I know God will continue to be with us. But don’t ever think that it will be easy.

Former Super Eagles player and coach, Sunday Oliseh, revealed that Nigeria has what it takes to reach the semifinals of the FIFA 2018 World Cup in Russia. The ex Super Eagles captain who was part of the squad to USA ‘94 and France ‘98 World Cups, has tipped world champions Germany, Spain, France, Brazil, Egypt and Nigeria as likely teams to get to the last four stages when hostilities begin in Russia. On the other hand, another former Super Eagles player, Ifeanyi Udeze, believes Nigeria’s group opponents at the 2018 World Cup, Argentina, will be one of the teams likely to reach the semifinals. Udeze told allnigeriasoccer.com that The Albiceleste (Argentina), will be one of the four semifinalists at the World Cup.“That’s Oliseh’s opinion (Argentina not reaching Russia 2018 semifinals)?. If you ask me, I will add Argentina,’’ the one time West Brom defender stated. “Probably he (Oliseh) omitted Argentina because of the way they have been playing badly without Lionel Messi, but I

Mesut Ozil, Aaron Ramsey, Jack Wilshere and Alexandre Lacazette will not feature in Arsenal’s game against Manchester United on Sunday, April 29 as boss Arsene Wenger has decided to rest seven first-team players for the trip to Old Trafford. Wenger has admitted that winning the Europa League is now his priority for the season but after the 1-1 draw in the first leg of their semi-final against Atletico Madrid on Thursday evening, Arsenal face a tough task of progressing to next month’s final in Lyon. To ensure his squad are fresh for the return leg in Madrid next Thursday, Wenger is making wholesale changes to his team for the match against Jose Mourinho’s side. Ozil, who played a full 90 minutes against Atletico, did not train with his teammates during their light session on Saturday morning and did not travel with the squad to Manchester that afternoon. Ramsey, Wilshere and Lacazette also started against Atletico but have not made the trip to Manchester. Source: 

A female corps member serving in Kwara State has died at the NYSC camp in Yikpata, Edu local government area, Kwara state, North Central Nigeria. The female corps member by the name Amadi Eva Ichechukwu with registration number KW/18A/0135, Batch A, from Rivers State, was reported to have died due to injuries she sustained during a “Man-O-War” drilling exercise at the ongoing orientation camp. The deceased who studied Oil and Gas at University of Port Harcourt, it was gathered, was said to have been full of life before her mobilisation for the one year mandatory service to father land. Investigations revealed that the deceased was said to have fallen off the string in the course of Man-O-War drilling exercise at the orientation camp. A source said after falling off the string, she was hurriedly rushed to the NYSC clinic at the camp for medical attention where she was attended to by medical personnel who are also corps members. However, it was also gathered that when the dece

Atiku Abubakar, an ex vice president, has stated that the major reason he went separate ways with his former party, the All Progressive Congress (APC), was the inability of President Muhammadu Buhari to address the negative manner in which the APC was being managed. Atiku stated this on Saturday, April 27, in an interview with BBC Hausa Good Morning programme. “After 2015 general election, I met the president. I told him the activities of the party have been crippled and there is a need for restructure. Also I advised the president on issues concerning his administration. I said to him, if things continued like this, I will quit but Mr Buhari turned deaf ears and remained mum,” he said. When asked how he would battle corruption if elected in 2019, the presidential candidate said: “If Nigerians can recall, we initiated the Economic and Financial (Crimes) Commission (EFCC). I’m the person that sourced for the takeoff funds for the EFCC. “In this administration (Buhari’s), there

A former Presidential aspirant and current National Chairman of the Social Democratic Party (SDP), Chief Olu Falae, has told Nigerians to stop crying over the poor state of insecurity in the country, but should vote out the current President, Muhammadu Buhari. The former finance minister stated that Nigerians should rather prepare to vote out the All Progressives Congress (APC) government led by President Buhari. The one time secretary to the government of the federation under the IBB regime made this known on Thursday, April 26, following a meeting of the National Executive Committee (NEC) of the SDP held at Abuja. Falae likewise said the Nigerian voter should not vote for the APC or the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in coming elections, because neither can boast of any manifesto or policies that would positively change the lives of the citizens. “What we are doing and what we hope to achieve is to replace this administration that is doing nothing about this callous killing

The Peoples Republic of China on Friday, April 27, showered praises on the leaders of the two Korean countries for holding a landmark summit, calling their handshake over the Military Demarcation Line that divides the peninsula a “historic moment”. “We applaud the Korean leaders’ historic step and appreciate their political decisions and courage,” foreign ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying told a regular press briefing. “We hope and look forward to them taking this opportunity to further open a new journey of long-term stability on the peninsula.” Hua Chunying likewise rendered a poem that reads: “We remain brothers after all the  vicissitudes; let’s forgo our old grudges, smiling we meet again.” China is North Korea’s sole major partner, but it has supported a series of United Nations sanctions to punish Pyongyang over its nuclear and missile tests. Beijing has pressed for dialogue to peacefully resolve the nuclear crisis. North Korea’s leader Kim Jong Un (R) talks wi

Due to the fact that President Muhammadu Buhari failed to get the approval of the National Assembly before the withdrawal of $496 million used to buy aircraft from the United States, several senators have called for the president's impeachment. Section 143 of the Nigerian constitution provides for the removal of the president from office. Moving a motion on the issue on Thursday, Matthew Uroghide, Edo state, said President Buhari’s move was a violation of the constitution and thus, he should face the consequences. He prayed the Senate to invoke Section 143 to start the impeachment process of the president. Seconding the motion, Chukwuka Utazi spoke in support of the move. “This is an impeachable offence,” an obviously angry Mr Utazi, said. More senators are currently speaking on the issue.

An ex Aviation ministet, Femi Fani-Kayode, has made a mockery of embattled Kogi state Senator Dino Melaye over his ongoing travails under the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari. Melaye was among Nigerians who strongly opposed the immediate past administration of President Goodluck Jonathan and passionately supported Buhari to succeed Jonathan. Apart from a move by his constituents to recall him, Melaye is currently facing two police cases and recently jumped out of police vehicle in an alleged bid to escape being taken to Kogi State, and in the process injured himself. He had since Tuesday when the incident happened, remained in hospital and claimed in a tweet on Tuesday that he was yet to eat anything for over 24 hours, also lamenting that his family, members and lawyers have been denied access to see him. Reacting to the travails of the senator, who represents Kogi West at the Senate, Fani-Kayode wrote: “He spoke against @GEJonathan and walked freely but when he

One time Coordinating Minister of the Economy and Finance under former president Goodluck Jonathan administration, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, has stated how ex Niger State, governor, Muazu Babangida Aliyu and his colleagues ‘wrongly’ advised Jonathan to announce the removal of fuel subsidy on January 1, 2012. The withdrawal of the fuel subsidy led to bloody protests across the country, which forced government to backtrack on the price increase. In a new book, “Fighting corruption is dangerous: The story behind the headlines”, Okonjo-Iweala recalled how the move was “ill timed and wrong.” She wrote, “There were some debates within the Economic Management Team as to whether fuel subsidies should be phased out in stages or in one fell swoop. The consensus was that experience in Nigeria had shown that even a small partial phase-out would draw the same large protests as a complete phase-out, so the feeling of the team was, ‘why die in stages?’ Perhaps, it was better to do all at once.

The Reds beat Roma 5-2 in the first leg of their semi-final clash at Anfield on Tuesday. They stand a better chance of making it to the final if they avoid losing by three goals next week in the reverse fixture.

Salah tormented his former club Roma on Tuesday, April 24 night, with a brace in Liverpool's 5-2 Champions League first leg semi-final victory at Anfield. The Italian club's fans may wish they hadn't sold the Egyptian, but sporting director Monchi has explained that their hands were tied. "We had to sell him one way or another before June 30, 2017, in order to comply with UEFA's Financial Fair Play rules," he said in an interview with Onda Cero and Radio MARCA's 'El Transistor' programme.

The lower chambers of the National Assembly is preparing to remove President Muhammadu Buhari via constitutional means. This is based on the spending of $496m without parliamentary approval. This has therefore pitched President Buhari against the House of Representatives with most members calling for the impeachment of the President. Following the reading of President Buhari’s request in a letter by Speaker Yakubu Dogara at Tuesday’s plenary informing the House that $496m had been spent for the procurement of military aircraft from the United State of America(USA), lawmakers could not hide their disdain for what they called breach of the constitution by the President. According to Buhari, the expenditure was made in anticipation that the Green Chamber would approve it, as part of the 2018 Appropriation Bill, currently before the National Assembly.

Mohamed Salah decided not to celebrate his two goals against Roma in the first leg of Liverpool's Champions League semi-final clash on Tuesday, April 24 night. The former AS Roma winger left the Serie A giants for the Anfield club in the summer, putting pen to paper with Liverpool in a deal worth £35million. When he scored against Chelsea earlier in the season he refused to celebrate out of respect for his former employees, and did the same thing twice on Tuesday night. Salah was instead seen holding his hands out in front of him as his Liverpool team-mates dived all over him and celebrated his goals passionately. Speaking in the BT Sport studio after the game Gary Lineker, Rio Ferdinand, Frank Lampard, and Gerrard discussed Salah's brilliance in netting a brace and assisting two more goals in the 5-2 win.

Bayern Munich legend and goalkeeper, Oliver Kahn believes his former club can hurt Champions League holders, Real Madrid. In the same vein, the Bavarians will be counting on Robert Lewandowski to activate a 'Ronaldo mode' of display.

Despite the threat Real Madrid can bring, Kahn is confident his old club will overcome Los Blancos and reach the final of the Champions League. "There are enough possibilities to put Real Madrid under pressure and to put them in danger," the retired goalkeeper revealed in an interview. "Real Madrid are a typical phase team. "That is, they have phases in the game where they press extremely hard and make an extreme push that almost strangles the opponent."

The publisher of Sahara Reporters, Omoyele Sowore, has lamented that President Muhammadu Buhari, has reneged on his campaign promises he made to Nigerians three years after becoming the leader of the country. The media practitioner, who is also a Presidential aspirant, stated this while featuring as a guest on Sunday Politics aired on Channels Television. “President Buhari, having disappointed as a leader and failed a majority of Nigerians will lose in 2019,” he said. Sowore, however, explained that he is not disturbed in any way with the President declaring his intention to seek reelection ahead of 2019. The media boss is rather optimistic that the current administration would be sacked owing to what he describes as ‘failure’ on the part of the Federal Government. He added, “What were his plans for coming to power? He promised security but the people of Dapchi know better. “Boko Haram is still flourishing.

The World Bank on Monday, April 23, stated that Nigerians living in the Diaspora repatriated $22 billion home in 2017, making it among the highest, and the fifth largest remittance by immigrants. Egypt received $20 billion from its citizens abroad, according to figures published by the bank today. The World Bank said payments from immigrants back to their home countries rebounded to reach a new record in 2017 but the costs of transferring funds also increased. The stronger-than-expected recovery in remittances — payments that are key to supporting the economies of many poor countries — was driven by growth in Europe, Russia and the United States, the World Bank said in a report. The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the bank estimates that officially recorded remittances to low- and middle-income countries reached $466 billion in 2017, an increase of 8.5 percent over $429 billion in 2016. They are expected to increase by about four percent this year. Remittance inflows imp

Sharing a photo where the Saurdana was bowing to the queen on twitter, Fani-Kayode wrote, “Saurdana of Sokoto bows before Queen Elizabeth 11 of Great Britain. “This tells the whole story.

Information regarding LaLiga impending signings has it that Lionel Messi has advised Barcelona to offer Ousmane Dembele to Liverpool in a bid to sign Mohamed Salah to the Nou Camp. Spanish outlet Diario Gol, has it that the runaway LaLiga champions are looking at sending French flop Dembele to Anfield as part of a deal for the current Premier League top scorer. The news made it known that the Argentine has given his approval for such a deal, as he would rather the Liverpool star sign instead of Antoine Griezmann, who he feels is too similar a player and would overlap him too often. The brain behind the move is that Barcelona would have a player already in his peak and would not have to wait for Dembele to develop. Also, the Spanish league leaders are also keen on the idea of ex-Liverpool star Philippe Coutinho replacing Andres Iniesta in midfield, meaning he would not play as much out wide. In addition, the report claims that Real Madrid president Florentino Perez is ready t
