Powerful Nigerians Don’t Want Chibok Girls Rescued - Negotiator



 
Some powerful Nigerians are sabotaging the efforts of the Federal Government and other concerned citizens to ensure that the over 200 girls kidnapped by Boko Haram are set free.

This was disclosed by the President, Civil Rights Congress, Mr. Shehu Sani, in a recent exclusive interview with SUNDAY PUNCH. Sani, who has been involved in efforts to get government and Boko Haram to discuss the fate of the girls in the past, said some powerful individuals, whom he refused to name, ensured that the talks derailed.

Premier League - Ulloa earns Leicester draw as Arsenal pay for Wenger Foolish And Stinginess


           Premier League - Ulloa earns Leicester draw as Arsenal pay for profligacy
Leicester City players celebrates in front of the home crowd after their Argentinian striker Leonardo Ulloa scored the 1-1 equalising goal during the English Premier League football match between Leicester City and Arsenal

Arsenal paid the price for their profligacy as Leonardo Ulloa's superb header earned Leicester a hard-fought 1-1 draw at the King Power Stadium.
The Gunners had looked on course for three points when Alexis Sanchez pounced on Yaya Sanogo's miscue to tap home his first goal in the Premier League on 20 minutes.
But Argentine, Ulloa levelled just two minutes later, rising well to head in Jeffrey Schlupp's brilliant left-wing cross.
The Gunners had plenty of chances to add to their tally, with Sanogo thwarted on numerous occasions, but they couldn't find the breakthrough and were forced to settle for a point.
The pressure will now mount for Arsene Wenger to act in the transfer market with just over 24 hours left of the window for him to sign a striker.
