The ship of the major opposition political party in Nigeria, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has been filled with more crew members, who have much knowledge of sea voyage. Since the ruling party, the All Progressives Congress (APC) mounted the saddle of leadership of the country on Friday, May 29, 2015, the party has lost some bigwigs due to what was termed as not being carried along the mainstream of things. The first heavyweight was former two term vice president of the nation, Atiku Abubakar. Fast forward to a few days ago, current Senate president, Abubakar Bukola Saraki and three APC governors also decamped to the PDP. Is there any lesson in this for the APC? The governing party is in the best position to answer this. The crux of these backstabbing, subterfuge, intrigues and mudslinging, are all towards who controls the federal government after 2019 general elections. For the APC, it's conspicuously clear that President Muhammadu Buhari will be given an automatic...

Just yesterday, Monday, July 31, president of the Senate, Dr Abubakar Bukola Saraki, alongside Kwara state governor, Abdulfatah Ahmed dumped the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). But another PDP defection tsunami today, has hit the APC, following the changing of political terrain by former Speaker, House of Representatives and incumbent Sokoto state governor, Aminu Waziri Tambuwal. Suffice to state here that APC publicity secretary and a former minister, Bolaji Abdullahi is technically out of the APC. Where did it all go wrong for the APC and where will President Muhammadu Buhari find refuge in 2019 presidential election? However, anything is possible in the game of politics. Three things could make swimming through the murky waters of politics difficult for President Buhari and his party during next year election. 1. Three governors of APC extraction have defected already. These governors control states which are vital to the elec...

A man who could be described as a killer son has allegedly murdered his own mother over what people could not believe to be true to their imagination. According to Nigerianmonitor, a 27 year old man known as Emmanuel Egahghe has been declared wanted by the police in Lagos state for beating his mother to death because she allegedly refused to give him a sum of N20,000. It is gathered Emmanuel viisted his 61-year-old mother, Helen, at her shop on Jinadu Street, Ajangbadi, Lagos State, on July 6, 2018 and asked her to give him pocket money which she refused to. He got angry and went violent on her. He started to harass her and whilst he was struggling with her purse, slammed her head on the wall in the shop. She had a deep cut on her head and her mouth was gushing out blood. Seeing how badly injured his mother was, Emmanuel immediately fled the scene. Narrating how the incident happened, a resident in the area who spoke with Punch, said “The sis...

The football world was sent into a frenzy after the confirmation of current FIFA football player of the year, Cristiano Ronaldo as a Juventus player. The Portuguese captain moving from Spain to Italy is seen as a propaganda by a Seria A football executive. After winning seven consecutive titles, without success in the UEFA Champions League, new excitement, the next step, something different was needed in Turin. That's the belief of Napoli chairman Aurelio De Laurentiis, who too revealed they received the offer to sign the 33-year-old. De Laurentiis claims the club's Fiat Chrysler Automobiles Group that owns the Italian giants', deal for the five-time Ballon d'Or winner goes beyond sporting reasons. "Juventus have done a beautiful propaganda move for the whole FCA Group," De Laurentiis told La Verita. "So I hope it can help to mask the drop in enthusiasm there would have been among the fans if [Coach Max] Allegri had just been reconfirmed with...

Apart from the backroom staff of Manchester United, who are not feeling comfortable with club manager, Jose Mourinho, the players too are said to be pensive. Reports have it that Manchester United's players are reportedly growing restless with Jose Mourinho's black mood on the club's United States tour. The Old Trafford club's pre-season campaign has not gone to plan for club manager, who has publicly complained about missing out on transfer targets and admitted to being concerned about the shape of his squad. Results on the field have been far from ideal, too, with United drawing three of their friendlies and losing 4-1 to arch-rivals Liverpool last weekend. Having called out Anthony Martial for failing to report back to the States following the birth of his baby boy, United's players are said to have reached breaking point. According to the Daily Mail, a number of the playing squad and staff have become unsettled, as they are being made to tread careful...

Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue state, who is facing one of the most serious political battles in his life has opened about the shithole term used to describe Nigeria, and by extension Africa. The embattled Governor has stated he now fully understands why United States president, Donald Trump called African countries sh*t hole countries. Although the US President had denied using those words, which sparked global outrage, with various African leaders calling for an apology, Gov Ortom, says he now knows why President Trump referred to Nigeria as a “shithole country”. Ortom said this, while reacting to the impeachment notice, he was served by eight lawmakers of the All Progressives Congress (APC). According to the governor, all these are because he left the party for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). The governor said the inspector-general of police and director-general of police are responsible for this wickedness being perpetuated against him, and begged President Muhammadu...

England football team goal poacher and highest goalscorer at the concluded Russia 2018 FIFA World Cup, Harry Kane might join Manchester United. Information by Daily Post has it that Tottenham forward, Harry Kane is set for a shocking move to Manchester United. Reports in England suggest that Kane will swap Tottenham for Manchester United before the August 9 deadline. Speaking about United’s deal for the England captain, Paddy Power spokesman, Lee Price told Express Sports, “We are laying Harry Kane to go to Manchester United – it’s come from nowhere. “The bets have just kept on coming and we’ve had to keep slashing and slashing the price. It seems punters can’t get enough of it. “It appears United really could get their man and that Kane may be heading to Old Trafford.” Before now, Real Madrid had been the favourite to get Kane this summer.

The United boss is upsetting club officials with his dark moods, it has been claimed. The Independent says Mourinho's frustrations over their market work are causing problems within the club.

The report says Mourinho is asking questions about when players will be sold to help fund additions and is not getting the answers he wants. Speaking at a press conference yesterday, Mourinho was a despondent figure as he refused to answer a question about whether United can compete for the Premier League title next season. When asked if he was confident of a challenge, the 55-year-old replied: "I don't answer your question."

The gale of cross carpeting or better still defection hit the strides of the main political party in Nigeria, the All Progressives Congress (APC). According to the Nigerian Monitor, the PDP has reacted to the defection of Benue State governor, Samuel Ortom from the APC to its fold. PDP in its statement warmly welcomed Samuel Ortom back to its fold and urged all its members in APC to return ‘home’ and salvage the nation. ‘The PDP hails Governor Ortom for showing patriotic courage and boldness in these times of brazen dictatorship. The return of the Governor to PDP confirms the fact that President Muhammadu Buhari’s led-administration and the All Progressives Congress (APC) do not have the welfare of Nigerians at heart, as they have continually offer flimsy excuses over the mindless killings that have caused untold sorrows across the country, particularly, Benue State’ the statement read. ‘PDP recalls that the Buhari-led federal government has failed in its basic responsibility ...

Meat is one food that hardly anyone does not like consuming, especially when it's served fried or with different soup sauce, however, Science is warning people who consume high meat to reduce it. A new review of studies on meat consumption around the world has found diets high in red meat are having serious consequences on our health. The UK research, published in journal Science, shows while the meat is an important source of nutrients, it can increase the likelihood of developing cancer - particularly bowel and colorectal - and other diseases, including cardiovascular and type 2 diabetes. "This Science article provides a state-of-the-art review of evidence regarding the increase in meat consumption worldwide as well as the impact of meat consumption on health and the environment," said Assoc Prof Taciano Milfont of Wellington's Victoria University.

Factory workers with Italian vehicle giant, Fiat are preparing to down tool because the owners of the motor giant signed Cristiano Ronaldo. According to report by Bloomberg, Fiat factory workers in Italy can think of a few things they’d rather see their owner spend $130 million on than Cristiano Ronaldo. A Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV union in the south of the country called for a strike to protest the purchase of star player by Juventus Football Club SpA, which like the carmaker is owned by the Agnelli family. That’s money that could have been used for job-boosting investments like making better cars, the union said. “It’s unacceptable that, while FCA and CNHI workers continue to make huge economic sacrifices, the company spends hundreds of millions of euros on the purchase of a player,” union USB Lavoro Privato said in a statement. It’s calling for a strike the Melfi plant in southern Italy between 10 p.m. on July 15 and 6 p.m. on July 17. Spanish soccer giant Real Madri...

Michael Jackson is undoubtedly the greatest pop music star ever to grace planet earth due to his many heroics and his popularity, while he was alive, however, the challenges he faced was made known by his former doctor. Michael Jackson was chemically castrated as a child by his recently deceased father Joe Jackson, according to the King of Pop’s former doctor, Conrad Murray. Murray, who was convicted of involuntary manslaughter and served two years in prison for delivering a fatal dose of the painkiller propofol to the singer in 2009, called the Jackson family patriarch “one of the worst fathers to his children in history” in a video obtained by The Blast. The former cardiologist added that when Jackson was his patient, the singer told him about the “many sufferings” he experienced “at the hands of his father” as a child.  “The fact that he was chemically castrated to maintain his high-pitched voice is beyond words,” Murray continued, echoing a claim he made in his 20...

Cristiano Ronaldo boasts of so many brilliant and outstanding individual and club records especially with his former club, Manchester United and current one, Real Madrid. However, the current Champions League defending champions have not made the five time World player of the year happy based on certain issues. Ronaldo has won five Champions League, one with Manchester United and the remaining with the Spanish giant, the highest currently for a single player. However, he believes he deserves more respect from his current employers. Forbes says that Cristiano Ronaldo is the third highest paid sportsman in the world thanks to his sporting income (61 million euros per year) and advertising (47m), and that's what Juventus will be buying into after he gave the Italian club his word that he would join them. The Portuguese striker's sponsorships are only surpassed by boxer Floyd Mayweather. An industry all on his own, Ronaldo cares very little that Real Madrid contributes 21,...
