Still smarting from their opening day 0-2 defeat by Enyimba in Aba, former runners up, MFM Football Club of Lagos go into today’s Week Two game of the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) sure of getting their first three points of the season.
Although some of their top performers have left for greener pasture elsewhere, the Olukoya Boys believe they have the weapon to gun down Kwara United in the Group A game billed for the Agege Stadium.

Ironically, the MFM gauntlet is being championed by former Kwara United forward, Michael Ohanu, who has pledged to gun down his erstwhile employers.

Ohanu, who spent three years at Kwara United, joined the Olukoya Boys from El-kanemi Warriors during the transfer window.

“We lost that match, so we are determined to put in our best and work very hard to win this one in our home.

“Kwara United drew their last home game and they are coming with everything to make sure they get a point here, but I believe in what our coach has said, the encouragement and the hard work we have been putting together. So I believe we will come out victorious,” he said yesterday.

Apart from the Agege Stadium, NPFL games will hold in other venues across the country with Niger Tornadoes hosting Rivers United at the Bello Kontagora Stadium, Minna.

In Group B, Abia Warriors are at home to Go-Round FC at the Umuahia Township Stadium, FC IfeanyiUbah will host Nasarawa United in Nnewi, while Heartland will play their first home game in Owerri against Plateau United, just as El Kanemi Warriors will host Kano Pillars in Maiduguri.

According to InfoMigrants, Nigerian women are at growing risk from traffickers in Germany who exploit and engage them in prostitution. Read the full report below by InfoMigrants. The new prostitute protection law in Germany was meant to identify victims of human trafficking – most of them migrant women. More than 18 months after the law came into effect, thousands continue to be targeted for exploitation, and the risk for Nigerian women seems to be increasing. There are campervans parked by the roadside. Some have hearts painted on them, one says “girls, girls” in red letters. It’s an easy matter for someone to stop for a quick transaction in one of these Love-Mobiles – sex with one of the “girls” in exchange for the going rate. Prostitution is mainly legal in Germany, as are these mobile brothels. But many of the women in the business – including those working from the Love-Mobiles – are victims of illegal human trafficking. Most of the women are from Eastern Europe or Nige

FULL TEXT: A sacrifice for our new political order – Ezekwesili

“When the ACPN leadership approached me in a series of visits to appeal that I run for office on their platform, the party appeared to be a good fit. It was founded by some disgruntled PDP members some years ago, but when its prime founder decided to return to the PDP, a core of its membership refused to move back with him. I was told that they stayed back because of their opposition to the ways of the PDP. Considering my vocal disapproval of the PDP and the APC, I admired the ACPN’s decision to stand firm and refusal to be co-opted.” It has been an interesting one week since I made the tough but necessary decision to suspend my campaign for the presidency. I have been truly overwhelmed by the reactions to my announcement from Nigerians. Even in airports outside the country as I travelled last week, Nigerians walked up to me with questions, concerns, encouragement, and motivation. I also saw disappointment by some who had poured their hearts and hopes into actualising our mission
