Choi! Nigerian U17 team wiped out as all but two players fail age test Posted: 04 Aug 2016 01:30 PM PDT Found this hilarious report on Euro Sport. According to the report, 26 players of Nigeria's Under 17 team passed the age test. Read the report below... "Nigerian football is in a state of shock after an astonishing 26 players failed age tests carried out ahead of an Under-17 African Cup of Nations qualifier, according to a report. Africanfootball.com reports that a mandatory MRI screening carried out on 60 eligible players showed almost half were ineligible to play. The existing first XI was far more badly hit, however, with only two players passing the MRI test - an astonishing blow for a squad which won the FIFA U17 World Cup last year for a record fifth time. MRI tests have been used for several years to prevent age fraud in football, and are considered 99% accurate up to the age of 17. "It is a disaster," a Nigerian official told the website. "Virtually the first team the coaches have been working on have been disqualified. It's a serious problem." The players who failed the tests have now left the training camp in Abuja, where they were staying ahead of Saturday's Cup of Nations U17 qualifying match against Niger. "Several of the players were in tears and total shock when the final results came through," adds Samm Audu's report on Africanfootball.com. "Among those who flung the age test was a star striker, who came through the national U15 team and has been outstanding in training leading up to Saturday's AFCON qualifier. "Another promising player disqualified only recently forced his way into the starting XI of coach Manu Garba's team after a late call-up." It's not the first time that age fraud has been discovered in the Nigerian youth system: back in 1989 the nation's youth teams were banned for two years for faking players' birth dates at the 1988 Olympics, for example. It did not stop after that, however. In 2010 former Nigerian FA president Anthony Kojo Williams told the BBC: "We use over-age players for junior championships, I know that. Why not say it? It's the truth. We always cheat. It's a fact. When you cheat, you deprive the young stars that are supposed to play in these competitions their rights.Source: Eurosports/Africanfootball.com |

Clint Eastwood says he would vote for Donald Trump, says current America generation is 'Pu**y' Posted: 04 Aug 2016 09:56 AM PDT Hollywood actor/director and producer Clint Eastwood has drummed up praise for Republican party Presidential candidate Donald Trump, calling the current American generation 'pus**' and also saying during his time while growing up most of the things Trump has said won't be referred to as racist. Speaking in a lengthy interview with Esquire magazine for its September issue, he said; The 86-year-old actor acknowledged the Billionaire is "racist," citing Trump's hateful remarks against Federal Judge Gonzalo Curiel but says the press overreact towards his statements. "You know, he's a racist now because he's talked about this judge. And yeah, it's a dumb thing to say. I mean, to predicate your opinion on the fact that the guy was born to Mexican parents or something," Eastwood said. "But everybody — the press and everybody's going, 'Oh, well, that's racist,' and they're making a big hoodoo out of it. Just f--king get over it. It's a sad time in history," he continued. "We're really in a p---y generation. Everybody's walking on eggshells," he said. "We see people accusing people of being racist and all kinds of stuff. When I grew up, those things weren't called racist." "I'd have to go for Trump. You know, 'cause she's declared that she's gonna follow in Obama's footsteps," he said. |

Posted: 04 Aug 2016 09:43 AM PDT Getting rid of diabetes is not a Science, it is an Art. When Victoria Adebanjo was first diagnosed with type 2 diabetes seven years ago,Soon after the diagnosis. She cried for days. "I was so depressed. I love baking; I'm addicted to chocolate; and I knew that all this would have to change. It felt like my life was coming to an end," http://goo.gl/Hyv3Ny "Even though we have diabetes in our family, my diagnosis came as a surprise. I felt very tired, thirsty and had to go to the bathroom often; but I did not make the connection." She did, however, had a serious health scare two years ago, when her body stopped producing insulin altogether, sudden complication like high blood pressure started to develop. Victoria was at the verge of developing a more dangerous health complication, but she was very lucky to have taken advice from her sister to start the Ultra Diabetes Care Program which she recommend to her diabetes patients over years. http://goo.gl/Hyv3Ny Insulin is needed to move blood sugar (glucose) into cells, where it is stored and later used for energy. Without insulin, the body has no energy to perform its important functions; and the glucose levels keep rising in the blood, causing damage to organs such as your heart. The first two years of living with diabetes were very hard. "I felt down in the dumps and really sorry for myself, until I realized one day that I needed to walk away from it all and take charge of my life. The moment I took that decision, I started to feel much happier and healthier." http://goo.gl/Hyv3Ny Here Was What Had I To Do "You know, in the townships some people refer to diabetes as the 'die-bit-by-bit' disease; they believe that there is no hope when you're diagnosed with diabetes. However, that's simply not true anymore. A lot has changed. Diabetes has become a manageable chronic disease – by following a healthy lifestyle and undergoing Ultra diabetic care program, you can live a good life by the grace of God" "My Sister is a retired Nutritionist; she taught us healthy eating habits from early on – lots of fruit, veggies and brown rice. So, when I was diagnosed with diabetes, I didn't have to change my eating plan too much - I just needed to learn to curb my weaknesses for chocolate and cake." I learnt a whole lot from this E-book Titled "ULTRA DIABETES PRESCRIPTION". I was given the E-book for free after I started the Ultra Diabetes Care Program.

Now, High Blood Pressure is now a thing of the past. http://goo.gl/Hyv3Ny Are you stilling struggling with Diabetes and it complications?

Chimamanda answered questions about motherhood, feminism, her creative process, female sexuality and early failure. The author who recently revealed that she gave birth to a baby girl described motherhood as exciting and terrifying at the same time. "What excites you the most about being a new mom? What terrifies you the most about being a mom? A fan asked "Most exciting – a new and unique kind of love has come into my life, glorious and joyful and encompassing and full of discovery. Most terrifying – the anxiety-filled desire to protect her from everything and the terror-filled sense that I cannot." she gushed.Check out the rest of the chats below: https://www.theguardian.com/books/ |

Posted: 04 Aug 2016 08:48 AM PDT Minister of Power, Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola was a guest on BBC's Hard Talk on Tuesday August 2nd where he was interviewed on issues of national development, power, corruption and his administration as governor of Lagos state. Reacting to former UK Prime Minister, David Cameron's comment that Nigeria is a fantastically corrupt country, Fashola said; "I think that the former Prime minister was speaking tongue in cheek because if this country places host to the reception of stolen properties, then there is a moral issue, very strong moral issue and if I remember my criminal law, its is as much as an offence to receive stolen property as to actually stealing and I think that all of those who make those kind of comments and become havens for proceeds of corruption need to do a rethink. The President has said clearly that he is not interested in an apology, he is interested in having the money back. If you have something that is stolen, give it back "he said On allegations that he spent N70 million on his website while in office as governor of Lagos state, Fashola said "I have made my response on those matters.We need to be circumspect and very careful while whistle-blowing and transparency is all going on. We need to also understand that some people have worked very hard in their lives to earn their reputation. People who make those allegations must also be ready to stand up and verify them at least. Nobody has accused me of privately benefiting myself. They were allegations that I think at the very best were a clear misunderstanding of how procurement process worked".
