Match day 10 of the Nigeria Professional Football League produced 22 goals on Wednesday with newly promoted Kada City and Go Round FC recording away victories.

Both teams ensured Group B got the major talking points with their stunning results.

At the Pantami Stadium in Gombe, Go Round defended the only goal scored by Henry Ochuba in the 7th round to secure their second away win of the season.

Plateau United returned home to receive a shocker from Kada City.

The match stayed goalless until the 81st minute when Sadi Suleiman scored for the visitors.

The victory keeps hope alive for the Kaduna based team in their quest to remain in top flight football.

However, defeat for Plateau United has brought more worries for coach Abdul Maikaba and his team.

Still in Group B, Akwa United continued their fine form and stretched their unbeaten run to five matches.

Mfon Udoh scored his sixth goal of the season to give the Promise Keepers an important 1-0 win over Ifeanyi Ubah FC and also moved to third on the table.

In the other group matches, El-Kanemi Warriors maintained their home dominance with a 2-0 win over Heartland FC of Owerri.

Gambo Mohammed and Rabiu Ali goals gave Kano Pillers a 2-0 victory over Abia Warriors while Nasarawa United beat Yobe Desert Stars 1-0 in Lafia.

In Lagos, MFM FC maintained their lead on the group A table with a 2-0 win over Sunshine Stars.

The South West derby produced a beautiful football to the delight of spectators and in the 42nd minute, the in-form Adeniji Kabir scored the opener to send the home fans into singing and dancing.

Michael Ohanu’s goal in the 70th minute secured victory for the Olukoya boys.

In Aba, Enyimba defeated Katsina United 2-0. Katsina United ended the match with nine men, following the dismissal of Chinedu Ajanah and Dominic Abbah.

The People’s Elephant are second on the Group A table with 14 points.

In Enugu, Rangers claimed their third win in four matches after edging Wikki Tourists 2-1.

Due to continental engagements, the Flying Antelopes have five outstanding matches and with nine points already achieved and if they sustain the momentum, they can put up a good challenge in group A.

In Benin, Michael Ugwu gave Bendel Insurance the lead in the 13th minute but Rivers United’s Ossy Martins goal in the 49th minute levelled the score and ensured the points were shared.

Kwara United returned to winning ways with a 2-0 victory over Niger Tornadoes, while Lobi Stars secured a vital 2-1 win against Remo Stars.

The league will go on a short break for the general elections to be conducted and will return on Wednesday next week, 27 February.

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 ...
