Anthony Joshua says Jarrell Miller "does not deserve to be in a ring with me or any other heavyweight" after reported drug test failures.

But Joshua has wished Miller the best for the future and confirmed that he hopes to have a new opponent for June 1 within the next "48 to 72 hours".

Miller was due to face Joshua for the world champion's US debut but that fight is off after the American reportedly recorded adverse findings in drug testing samples.

Miler has admitted that he 'messed up' in a post on Instagram - and Joshua posted a video on YouTube on Monday night which included a message for his planned opponent.

He said: "I don't want to talk too much about the situation with Jarrell Miller, because it is not in my character to knock a man when he is down.

"But there are a lot of things he has said previously, at press conferences and in the build-up - and I wanted to crack him in his jaw.

"But I know when you are in a position, you have to lead by example, and I knew that was not the right thing to do.

"But the lesson to learn is that karma works in various ways - what goes around will come back around.

"I feel he has taken fate and his own blessings out of his own hands.

"Sometimes be respectful - I know it is a fight - but be respectful, be appreciative and lead by example. What he has done is not lead by example.

"Cheats will get found out and hustlers and hard workers will always rise to the top.

"Good luck to Jarrell Miller with whatever he does in his life - but he does not deserve to be in a ring with me or any other heavyweight right now.

"I don't know what the future holds, that is not up to me, that is up to the governing bodies but they will make the right call."

Meanwhile, boxing fans are eagerly awaiting news of who Joshua will tackle at Madison Square Garden on June 1.

"We are currently looking for alternative options," said Joshua. "I have got another four and a bit weeks of sparring.

"Whoever the fighter may be, I am going to keep my chin down, hands up and I am ready to slug it out with whoever.

"Eddie (Hearn, promoter) is doing the negotiations and hopefully, within the next 48 hours, 72 hours, we will have an update for June 1st.

"It is still going ahead - and the landlord will come and collect his rent!"

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 ...
