Simply Magical or Extraordinary Messiless? I had never admired or adored the El Classico since 2006 when I became a full blown football fan, to me it had always been over hyped. In 2005, after the FIFA U-20 world cup, where the small boy with a feminine sounding name -,Missi broke my heart and eloped with the trophy and the most valuable player award, my heart hated the little man not to mention the humiliating displays against my Arsenal. Though I had always loved Madrid I mean the Real football club not an athletic social club because of the players they paraded then, from Zidane to Figo to Roberto Carlos to the Real Ronaldo etcetera. On the other hand, I had loved Barcelona because of some specially gifted players in their ranks- Rivaldo,Kluvert, Thuram, the young Valdez, Déco, Ronaldinho, Samuel Eto, Thierry Henry etcetera but who would finally win me over was the question I had always asked myself, on some occasion I would wholesomely support Madrid like when Guardiola was wrec...

The Media Effect. I took time to critically analyse the Semi Final match between Arsenal and Manchester City and came to realise how important the media can be in football. Both teams have been at the tail end of media criticism but one - Arsenal was more of a topic on daily basis, if not the team form, it's the players future or the manager's contract situation and funny enough Arsenal always find a way to be maligned in and by the media. Manchester city also had and are having a fair share of such castigation, from the manager's team and tactical setup, to age and squad dept, to anything we can think of. My greatest worry about Mr Wenger has always been his inability to change and twist or say setup a team according to the playing style of his opponent, before now everyone knew we would always go with the 4-2-3-1 formation, I for once had glamoured for a switch to a two striker option to get the best use of our squad. The media did shout but it had normally fell on de...

REMEMBER REVEREND KING? HE WON'T BE EXECUTED ACCORDING TO FALANA A senior lawyer and human rights activist Femi Falana has urged the Lagos state government to commute the death sentence passed on inmates to life imprisonment. Falana said the planned execution of death row inmates would violate a subsisting judgement deceived by the Lagos state High Court 2012. The court had ruled that it is illegal and unconstitutional to execute condemned inmates. Recall that the Lagos state government had announced that it would execute inmates on death row including the general overseer of the Christian Praying Assembly Chukwuemeka Ezeugo popularly known as Reverend King. But in his argument, Falana in a letter dated April 19, said executing inmates by firing squad will be a violation of their fundamental human rights to freedom of torture as guaranteed by the constitution. He further advised the Lagos state governor Akinwunmi Ambode that the only available option is to commute these ...

THIS IS WHY JEHOVAH'S WITHNESS IS BAN Russia’s Supreme Court ruled on Thursday that Jehovah’s Witnesses was an “extremist” organisation and must hand over all its property to the state, Russian news agencies reported. Interfax News Agency quoted Sergei Cherepanov, a Jehovah’s Witnesses representative, as saying that the group will appeal the decision in the European Court of Human Rights. “We will do everything possible,” he said. Russian authorities have put several of the group’s publications on a list of banned extremist literature and prosecutors have long cast it as an organisation that destroys families, fosters hatred and threatens lives. The group, a United States-based non- trinitarian Christian denomination known for its door-to-door preaching and rejection of military service and blood transfusions, says this description is false. The religious organisation has expanded around the world and has about eight million active followers. It has fac...
