Michael Olise Shines in Debut: Scores First Goal for Bayern Munich Within 12 Minutes, Winning Over Fans Instantly Prince Jean Aug 20, 2024 Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp Copy link Michael Olise Impresses with First Bayern Munich Goal in Just 12 Minutes During Friendly Victory Over Grasshoppers. Photo:gettyimages Michael Olise made an immediate impact in his first start for Bayern Munich, scoring a sensational goal just 12 minutes into the Bavarian club's friendly match against Swiss side Grasshoppers. The 22-year-old winger unleashed a left-footed volley into the far corner from inside the penalty area, quickly winning over Bayern fans. Supporters were ecstatic about Olise's performance, with one fan stating, "What a complete player. He plays like he doesn't have a care in the world!" Another fan commented, "The Olise hype train is being justified every day." A third wrote, "I can't believe my eyes, Olise is unreal," while another added, "Olise is hitting 40 G+A this season." Bayern Munich dominated the match, securing a 4-0 victory. Harry Kane doubled the lead two minutes into the second half, followed by goals from Mathys Tel and Thomas Müller to seal the win. Olise's goal came just days after he made his first contribution for Bayern in a DFB-Pokal clash against second-tier side Ulm. Coming on as a substitute, he assisted Kingsley Coman's goal within two minutes of his arrival on the pitch. Olise joined Bayern Munich earlier this summer in a £60 million transfer deal, turning down a move to Chelsea. Reflecting on his decision, Olise explained, "The talks with FC Bayern were very positive, and I’m very happy to now be playing for such a big club. It's a great challenge, and that's exactly what I was looking for. I want to prove myself at this level and help the team win as many titles as possible." The French winger began his youth career at Chelsea's academy before joining Manchester City. He later moved to Reading, where he made his professional debut and quickly became one of the standout players in the Championship. Last season, Olise scored ten goals for Crystal Palace, marking his best campaign in the Premier League. With a strong start at Bayern Munich, Olise looks set to have a breakthrough season with the Bundesliga champions. Fans are already predicting big things for the talented winger, who could become a key figure in Bayern’s title pursuits this season.

Former CAF President Issa Hayatou Passes Away at 77 Prince Jean Aug 9, 2024 Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp Copy link Former CAF President Issa Hayatou congratulates Lionel Messi during a FIFA Ballon d'Or ceremony, highlighting his significant role in global football governance. Issa Hayatou, the long-serving former president of the Confederation of African Football (CAF), has passed away at the age of 77. The Cameroonian football administrator led CAF for an impressive 29 years, beginning his presidency in 1988 and concluding his tenure in 2017. Hayatou also played a significant role in global football governance. He served on the FIFA Executive Committee (now the FIFA Council) from 1990 until 2017. His influence extended further when he briefly assumed the role of acting FIFA president from 2015 to 2016, following the suspension of Sepp Blatter. FIFA President Gianni Infantino expressed his condolences on Instagram, remembering Hayatou as a passionate sports enthusiast who dedicated his life to sports administration. "Saddened to hear of the passing of former CAF president, former FIFA president ad interim, FIFA vice president and FIFA council member, Issa Hayatou," Infantino wrote. "On behalf of FIFA, condolences go to his family, friends, former colleagues, and all who knew him. Rest in peace." In his earlier years, Hayatou was not only a football administrator but also a talented track athlete and basketball player. Despite his contributions, Hayatou faced controversy towards the end of his career. In August 2021, FIFA imposed a one-year ban on him for violating its code of ethics concerning a significant deal signed with French media company Lagardère in 2016. However, the Court of Arbitration for Sport overturned this sanction in February 2022.

Tanzania Unveils $3.1 Billion Railway to Transform National and Regional Trade Ayize claire Aug 1, 2024 Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp Copy link A modern high-speed train awaits departure at a newly constructed railway station Tanzania has launched a $3.1 billion modern standard gauge railway to enhance its transport infrastructure. The 541-kilometer railway, constructed by the Turkish firm Yapi Merkezi, connects the administrative capital, Dodoma, with the commercial hub, Dar es Salaam. This project is part of a broader initiative by African governments to develop infrastructure such as roads, railways, and bridges. However, there has been criticism over the loans from countries like China, which some argue could burden future generations with debt. President Samia Suluhu Hassan inaugurated the electric train services at a ceremony in Dar es Salaam and took a four-hour train ride to Dodoma. The newly launched sections are part of a planned 2,561-kilometer rail network aimed at boosting domestic and regional trade. In 2020, Tanzania secured a $1.46 billion loan from Standard Chartered Bank Tanzania to partially fund the newly launched stretch. Hassan emphasized the government's commitment to extending the railway to Kigoma to enhance regional trade connectivity. The administration is also working on a rail line towards Mwanza on Lake Victoria and planning another to Kigoma, linking with Burundi and the Democratic Republic of Congo. At a stop in Morogoro, Hassan highlighted the railway's potential to transform local businesses. The rail link to Burundi is expected to facilitate the annual transport of three million tons of minerals, including nickel, to Dar es Salaam's port, according to the Tanzanian finance ministry. This development underscores Tanzania's strategic efforts to bolster its infrastructure and economic prospects. Business and Industry Thika Cloth Mills Boosts Kenya’s Cotton Industry .

Wizkid: Wealthy Have Weaponized Poverty to Gain Worship from the Poor Prince Jean Oct 2, 2024 Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp Copy link Wizkid Accuses Nigeria's Wealthy of Using Poverty to Gain Worship, Takes Shots at Davido. Credit:gettyimages Afrobeats star Ayodeji Balogun, popularly known as Wizkid, has sparked controversy by accusing Nigeria’s rich of weaponizing poverty to make the poor "worship" them. The singer made the bold claim while engaging in a heated social media exchange with fellow artist Davido on Wednesday. Wizkid, known for hits like "More Love, Less Ego," began targeting Davido on Tuesday night, resuming his online attacks the following day. In his posts, Wizkid claimed that despite Davido's wealthy background, he was more successful and wealthier than the DMW boss, who is known for his hit song "Omo Baba Olowo." Labeling Davido as a "spoiled rich kid," Wizkid alleged that the "Unavailable" singer is "cheap" and charges less than most top-tier artists in the music industry. Taking to his X (formerly Twitter) account, Wizkid wrote: "First off, you’re not as fly as me, can’t sing or make music like me, you can’t dress, you don’t make more money than me, you don’t even got shoes like me. You’re cheap, you pull up for less than we do! F ck off you spoiled rich child! F ck you and your dad’s money, we got ours! Every n gga around you broke! Your dumb ss lawyer flies with you everywhere dressed like Basketmouth lol, our lawyers are too busy for that sh t!”* Wizkid further criticized Davido's claim of being "001" in the Nigerian music industry, accusing him of surrounding himself with poor people to gain their admiration. He claimed this was a result of the rich exploiting poverty in the country. "Naija is a place where the rich weaponize poverty so you carry all these broke boys in real life and get them visas so they worship you. Call yourself 001, you delusional! The only time you're 001 is at home. You're not 001 of anything but Instagram followers!" The fiery exchange has ignited discussions across social media, with fans of both artists weighing in on the rivalry.

South Sudan's Basketball Team: Forging a New countrie's image Prince Jean Jul 22, 2024 Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp Copy link South Sudan's Bright Stars in action during a pivotal basketball game South Sudan, the world’s youngest nation, is transforming its historical narrative from conflict to triumph through basketball. Emerging from one of the longest civil wars, the country now garners attention for its athletic achievements. The men’s national basketball team, the Bright Stars, have secured a spot at the Paris 2024 Olympics and recently came within seconds of a historic win against the United States. The Rise of the Bright Stars The Bright Stars’ rise to prominence in the international basketball arena is largely attributed to the influence of former NBA star Luol Deng. Deng, who spent 15 years in the NBA, has been a cornerstone of this transformation. His personal story of fleeing war-torn South Sudan as a child, finding refuge in the United Kingdom, and eventually becoming a basketball icon is a testament to resilience and determination. “Since I was born, I have known nothing but conversations about war,” Deng told BBC Sport Africa. “Whenever I was in school, even when I was in the NBA, it was always 'refugees left because of war' and 'war-torn country'. Now we are finding a new story.” A Historic Near Victory The team’s recent near victory against the United States marks a significant milestone in their journey. This game, which saw the Bright Stars narrowly miss a historic win, underscores their growing capability to compete with the best teams globally. It also serves as a powerful symbol of hope and progress for a nation eager for positive change. Luol Deng’s Leadership Luol Deng’s return to South Sudan as the head of the South Sudan Basketball Federation has been pivotal. His leadership and vision have galvanized the team and inspired a new generation of South Sudanese athletes. Deng’s dedication to the team’s success is helping to redefine South Sudan’s international image from one of conflict to one of achievement and potential. As the Bright Stars prepare for the Paris 2024 Olympics, their journey embodies the spirit of resilience and the power of sports to unite and inspire. The near victory over the United States is not just a game; it is a testament to what the team can achieve and a beacon of hope for the future.

Famine Hits Sudan as Peace Talks Fail Again Ayize claire Aug 25, 2024 Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp Copy link A victorious display by SAF in Port Sudan to mark Army Day earlier this month Famine continues to devastate Sudan as peace talks between warring factions stall, exacerbating an already dire humanitarian crisis. Despite a small concession by the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) to allow 15 UN aid trucks to cross from Chad into famine-hit areas, aid agencies warn that this gesture is insufficient to address the needs of millions at risk of starvation. Sudan's food crisis, driven by decades of economic mismanagement, war, and climate change, now threatens the lives of 2.5 million people by the year's end. The ongoing conflict between SAF, led by Gen Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), commanded by Gen Mohamed Hamdan Dagolo (Hemedti), has destroyed key agricultural regions, including Gezira and Sennar, further deepening the famine. In Darfur, particularly in el-Fasher, famine conditions have reached catastrophic levels, with Médecins sans Frontières (MSF) reporting extreme malnutrition in camps for displaced people. The SAF's blockade strategy mirrors tactics used during previous conflicts, cutting off essential supplies to rebel-held areas. Efforts to deliver aid are hampered by logistical challenges and political obstruction. While the SAF controls Port Sudan, and the UN recognizes them as the legitimate government, the slow trickle of aid into famine-stricken regions remains far from what is needed. Relief efforts are further delayed by bureaucratic hurdles, with aid agencies struggling to navigate the SAF's demands for inspections and permissions. International peace talks, mediated by the US and Saudi Arabia in Geneva , ended without progress as regional power struggles between Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Egypt continue to complicate negotiations. As the conflict drags on, hopes for a quick resolution diminish, leaving millions of Sudanese people facing an increasingly desperate future.

Credit:gettyimages Chelsea’s dominant 3-0 victory over West Ham United on September 21, 2024, was highlighted by a standout performance from Nicolas Jackson. The Senegalese forward wasted no time, netting twice within the first 18 minutes, marking one of the quickest braces by a Chelsea player in a Premier League London derby. Jackson’s first goal came just four minutes into the game, courtesy of a pinpoint assist from Jadon Sancho. His second followed swiftly in the 18th minute, with Moisés Caicedo playing the key pass that set up the striker’s calm finish.

Chukwuma Criticizes NFF, Urges Nigerians to Abandon Hopes for 2026 World Cup Prince Jean Aug 22, 2024 Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp Copy link Former NFF Vice President Gabriel Chukwuma Criticizes NFF Leadership, Advises Nigerians to Shift Focus from 2026 World Cup Chief Gabriel Chukwuma, former Vice President of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) and proprietor of Gabros International FC, has strongly criticized the current leadership of Nigerian football, led by NFF President Alhaji Ibrahim Gusau, accusing them of driving the nation’s football into a state of decline. Speaking to our correspondent, a visibly frustrated Chukwuma expressed deep concerns about the future of Nigerian football, particularly with the upcoming 2025 AFCON qualifying matches against Rwanda and Benin Republic. He pointed out that the NFF has yet to secure a world-class coach for the Super Eagles, a situation he believes jeopardizes Nigeria's chances in these critical fixtures. "This situation brings me back to my initial stance that Gusau has no place in the NFF leadership. Our football teams have been performing poorly, with the latest disappointment being the Super Falcons' failure at the Paris Olympics, where they lost all their group-stage matches and missed qualification for the second round," Chukwuma said. He further criticized the NFF’s rumored decision to consider Swedish coach Janne Andersson, who failed to qualify Sweden for both the 2022 World Cup in Qatar and the Euro 2024 Championship in Germany. "What exactly is he coming to do with the Super Eagles ? Dance ‘Gwo Gwo Gwo Gwom’ music or what?” Chukwuma questioned sarcastically. Chukwuma also expressed concern about the appointment of a local coach with a history of disappointing performances in previous Nations Cup tournaments. "This only confirms that Gusau and his associates never had a solid plan from the beginning. They’ve set up Nigerian football for failure with their lack of vision," he added. In a damning conclusion, Chukwuma advised Nigerian football fans to forget about the upcoming 2026 FIFA World Cup, scheduled to take place in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. "With the current lack of focus and planning from Gusau’s administration, I don’t see Nigeria winning the remaining qualifiers under these inexperienced coaches. Instead, fans should start looking ahead to the 2030 World Cup." He further urged the federal government to reconsider its financial support for the 2026 World Cup campaign. "It's clear that our chances have been ruined by Gusau's NFF. The government would be better off saving resources for the 2030 World Cup preparations, which should begin immediately," Chukwuma concluded.
