“He’s the player who knows my moves in front of goal best” – Ronaldo angry over Ozil’s exit

Real Madrid superstar Cristiano Ronaldo, has joined his team-mates in questioning the sale of Mesut Ozil to Arsenal.

The German playmaker became the Gunners record signing, after the Spanish giants accepted a £42.5million bid.

Over the past seasons, Ozil and Ronaldo have built up superb understanding on the pitch and the midfielder has been responsible for Ronaldo’s profilic scoring.

“The sale of Ozil is very bad news for me,” he is quoted as telling his Portugal team-mates, by AS Newspaper.

“He was the player who best knew my moves in front of goal… I’m angry about Özil leaving.”

Madrid have insisted that Ozil wanted to leave, while other sources claim he was forced out, as they try to recoup some of the money spent on Gareth Bale.

ASUU strike: We have other competing demands – Maku tells lecturers to go back to class

Minister of Information, Labaran Maku, Wednesday said the demands of the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, was capable of grounding and frustrating all economic activities of the Federal Government.

According to him, the Federal Government had expended so much in tackling security challenges in the country, noting that the situation had affected what could have gone to the education sector.

The Minister stated this while responding to questions from State House correspondents after the weekly Federal Executive Council meeting in Abuja.

Maku disclosed that the activities of the Boko Haram sect in the northern part of the country had affected the resources of the country.

While appealing to the striking lectures to return to class, Maku said that there were many competing demands on the government from other sectors.

Maku said, “If we say every particular problem we face in this country, we will not work until it is resolved, then I am sure there is no sector that will work.

“If we all insist that every sector’s problem must be completely solved, we will down-tool; we will not work, and the country will stop working.

“We are partners with ASUU. We are friends. They are our patriots and we understand the critical role that the universities teachers are playing to create a new society that we are hoping to have.

“At the same time, this is a real question that we need to look at and we have to put the nation first.

“I know that all of us desire more from the system but the truth is that there are limitations and from the limitations we have, we believe that ASUU really needs to do a rethink and ensure that we re-open our universities.

“We are really feeling the pains that our children at home are passing through and this indeed is obviously avoidable.”

Why I joined Liverpool - Moses

Nigeria international, Victor Moses, has revealed why he accepted to join Liverpool.

Just after completing his season-long loan move from Chelsea, Moses told Liverpool's official website that he is "delighted" to join "a big club like Liverpool."

Moses also pointed out that his target will be a top-four finish at Liverpool.

"First and foremost, I'm delighted to have made the loan from Chelsea to a big club like Liverpool. The most important thing is for me to be professional about it and I'm here to do a job for the club. The target is to get into the top four and for the club to compete in the Champions League - and I'm delighted to be here," said the 22-year-old attacker.

Moses, who was in the stands at Anfield to watch his new club beat champions Manchester United on Sunday, said he is at Liverpool to help them to keep their starting "momentum" in the Barclays Premier League.

The former Crystal Palace also recognises that he has made a right decision by accepting a loan move to Liverpool after falling in the pecking order at Chelsea.

"As I said, this is a massive club and I've come in to try and help my new teammates and the team. The players have been doing great - I went to watch them play on Sunday and the atmosphere was incredible. The fans were great and seeing them beat Manchester United was great for me coming into the club. They've won three out of three, have nine points and are at the top, so we just want to keep the momentum going," said Moses to Liverpoolfc.com.

"It's definitely the right move - this is a massive club with all the history. The club has come a long way and it's great to be here and to be playing for Liverpool. I'm delighted to be here and I just want to enjoy my football.

"As a young footballer coming up, I just want to play games. Not playing games can really damage your career. Liverpool is a massive club and I just want to enjoy my football out on the pitch and try to help my teammates."

The striker, who won the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations with Nigeria, disclosed that England international, Daniel Sturridge convinced him to join the Reds.

He said from that point it was not a difficult decision to agree to join Liverpool.

"Yes, I spoke to Studge and he wanted me to come here. He said I'd love it here, but he didn't need to say much. The next morning, I had a word with my agent and told him it could be the right move for me. As I've said, it's a massive club with great history. The club is doing well, so I wanted to come here and enjoy my football. It's been great - I've been here since yesterday and everyone has been looking after me," said Moses.

Liverpool sealed deals for Moses alongside Tiago Ilori and Mamadou Sakho.

Jonathan meets PDP governors, sues for peace; Withdraw from 2015 – Govenors insist..

President Goodluck Jonathan late Sunday, met with governors of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) with an appeal to them to sheathe their swords for the purpose of party unity.

He called the meeting following the shocking walkout by a number of influential members of the party from the venue of the convention in Abuja on Saturday.

The meeting which was held at a conference hall of the First Lady wing, had two-third of the PDP governors in attendance.

They include; Godswill Akpabio (Akwa Ibom), Abdulfatah Ahmed (Kwara), Emmanuel Uduaghan (Delta), Ibrahim Shema (Katsina), Murktar Ramalan Yero (Kaduna), Garba Umar (Taraba Acting Governor), Mu’azu Babangida Aliyu (Niger), Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso (Kano), Isa Yuguda (Bauchi), Murtala Nyako (Adamawa), Idris Wada (Kogi), Liyel Imoke (Cross River), Jonah Jang (Plateau), Seidu Dakingari (Kebbi), Theodore Orji (Abia), and Ibrahim Dankwambo (Gombe).

Counsel to PDP, Joe Kyari Gadzama, the National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki; the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Anyim Pius Anyim; and the Chief of Staff to the president, Mike Oghiadhome, were also present.

The president, his Vice, Namadi Sambo and some members of the PDP leadership, arrived at the venue of the meeting at about 9.30pm.

Jonathan, it was gathered appealed to the governors to stop embarrassing the party openly, saying whatever grouse they may have can always be discussed in private gatherings.

However, the parallel faction of the party has tabled their conditions for peace. They are; the president’s withdrawal from the 2015 election, as well as a free and fair convention.

It remains unclear if their demands can be met as Jonathan’s loyalist have told him not to give in to any pressure by those they regard as being rebellious.

Man charged for using Mugabe poster as toilet paper...LOL

HARARE: A Zimbabwean man has been charged for allegedly using President Robert Mugabe’s election campaign poster as toilet paper, local media reported Wednesday.

Takura Mufumisi, 26, from the southern city of Masvingo, is said to have taken the paper with him to a bar toilet.

An informant reportedly spotted him tearing up the poster with Mugabe’s image while inside the toilet and made a citizen’s arrest.

“Public prosecutor Mukai Mutumbe told the court that on July 24 this year, Mufumisi entered Landmark bar in the city with the intention to relieve himself  in the bar toilets,” the paper reported.

He has been accused of violating electoral laws.

In Zimbabwe it is a crime to pull down election campaign posters. His case has been adjourned indefinitely by a Magistrate’s Court.

Severed human head sent to Kenya police commission boss...OMG

A human head and two hands have been sent to Kenya’s police commission chief, viewed as a grim warning against his efforts to reform the force, officers said Friday.

A box containing the body parts apparently hacked from the same corpse was left outside the headquarters of the National Police Service Commission in the centre of the capital Nairobi on Thursday, city police chief Benson Kibui said.

Included was a threat for the chief of the largely civilian police oversight body, Johnston Kavuludi, who was appointed last year and is trying to push through reforms.

“Kavuludi, you are next”, a note with the head read.

Comprehensive police reforms were introduced in 2011 aimed at stopping violations committed by police during post-election violence in 2007-2008, but implementation has been blocked.

The reforms transfer some powers from the police chief to the commission, including responsibility for recruitment and discipline of police officers.

“We cannot tell the motive behind this,” Kibui said, calling it a “heinous” act.

The package was initially feared to be a bomb and explosive experts opening discovered the body parts.

Ribery beats Messi, Ronaldo to UEFA Best Player award

       The 30-year-old France international, was instrumental as Jupp Heycknes men won Bundesliga, DFB Pokal and Champions League treble in 2012/13 and was voted UEFA Player of the Year by football journalists.

“It’s a very special moment to be standing here this evening. I want to thank all of my team-mates from FC Bayern München, my family and my kids,” the former Marseille man said, after receiving the award.

Taraba Assembly declares Suntai unfit, advises him to go back for treatment

Following the recent sack of his cabinet members after he returned from abroad, and the eventual appointment of two principal officers, Governor of Taraba State, Danbaba Suntai is facing extreme political struggles , as his Deputy in alignment with the  state House of Assembly, has tagged his official resumption as “premature.”

Rt. Hon. Haruna Tsokwa, speaker of Taraba State House of Assembly, while speaking to newsmen in Jalingo said the lawmakers have advised Suntai to make a second trip to the United States for a proper rehabilitation before he could be allowed to take over his position from the state’s Deputy Governor.

Tsokwa affirmed that the lawmakers took the said decision after their visit to the Governor on Wednesday night, stressing that it was crystal clear after the visit that Suntai was unfit to return to office. The House therefore voted that the Deputy governor of the State should continue in acting capacity until Suntai is properly rehabilitated.

Controversies have continued to trail the return of the governor as people have held different views about his health status. While some are of the opinion that he should be allowed to rule, others have objected with the view that he is not fit to be restored as the state Governor yet.

Addressing journalists in Jalingo, the Taraba State capital on Thursday, Tsokwa, said that findings of the 24-member House had clearly showed that the Governor was still incapacitated.

The people of the state have remained doubtful over the claim that suntai has recovered and willing to rule the state again, since they are yet to get any viable and tangible signs pointing to his healthy state as claimed.

With the latest resolution of the state Assembly, there could be a possible impeachment move against the sick governor.

Treatment for Body Odour

What is body odour?

It is a perceived unpleasant smell our bodies can give off when bacteria that lives on the skin break down body sweat into acids. Body odour usually becomes evident if means are not taken when a human reaches puberty (14-16 years of age in females and 15-17 years of age in males). It can also be called Bromhidrosis or Osmidrosis. Normally, sweat itself is odourless to humans.

People susceptible to having body odour:

• People with hyperhydrosis (excessive sweating)
• People that takes too much salt
• Obesed people
• People who eat spicy foods regularly
• People with certain medical conditions e.g diabetes
• Wearing of shoes and socks for a long time (this makes the sweat difficult to evaporate, hence bacteria acts on it).

Areas where body odour most likely occur:

• Feet
• Genitals
• Anus
• Groin
• Pubic hair
• Behind the ears
• Armpits
• Belly button
• To some extent, on the rest of our skin.

Treatment Options for body odour:

• Keep the armpit clean by washing regularly with antibacterial soap and shaving the hairs regularly
• deodorants/Antiperspirants can be applied to the armpits.
• Injection of botulinum toxic in the armpits to reduce the rate of sweating in the area (armpit)
• Wash daily (at least) with warm water
• Wear clothes made of natural-made fibre e.g wool, silk, or cotton.
• Avoid diets high in red meat and spices.
• Wash feet in warm water regularly
• Wear socks made of a combination of man-made fibres and wool
• Do not wear the same pair of shoe two days in a row and ensure you sun dry your shoes
• Use foot deodorants and aspirant and treat fungal infection with appropriate medication.
