First Victory for Mikel Arteta as Arsenal Defeats Manchester United 2-0 (Match Summary with Photos)

Arsenal's performance was exceptional, with a display of effortless swagger, acute temerity, and tactical audacity, proving too much for a lackluster Manchester United team.

Disrupt United's wing-men to prevent potential counter-attacks. 2. Control the midfield and win possession of second balls. 3. Exploit United's wing back positions with attacks. ...and the plan was executed successfully. Arsenal made a strong start, with young talent Pepe breaking the deadlock after excellent work from Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and S...

The Land Revocation Controversy Involving the Saraki Family: Kwara State Government’s Explanation

According to the Kwara state bureau of lands, the Saraki family did not fulfill the payment requirement for a piece of land they occupied in Ilorin, the state capital.   Previously, the state government took over the land in December, citing its original designation for the construction of a secretariat and the civil service clinic's parking lot. In response, Bukola Saraki, the former senate president, claimed that the land was duly allocated and a right of occupancy was issued for it.   However, Ibrahim Salman, director-general of the bureau of lands, refuted Saraki's claim in a statement released on Wednesday. He explained, “The entire land was acquired in the 1970s for Overriding Public Interest and was initially designated for the State Secretariat Phase II. Construction work ...

National dailies get advertorial from presidency but NewsNow conspicuously missing

The absence of a news outlet, NewsNow, was noticeable as national dailies received a front page advertorial from the Presidency on January 1, 2020. While other newspapers featured President Muhammadu Buhari's New Year message, NewsNow had various stories and images of New Year celebrations around the world on its front page. It remains uncertain whether the exclusion of NewsNow by the Presidency was intentional, possibly due to the news outlet's editorial stance on the alleged lawlessness in President Buhari's administration. NewsNow had previously declared its decision to refer to President Buhari as "Major General" and his administration as a regime until they demonstrated respect for the rule of law. The article is accompanied by several images with the alt text "National dailies get...

And that's the last time I seen him, heard from him, took a picture with him, talked to him. But as far as what he's doing now, anybody that's bringing anyone to Jesus is a fr...
