The leader of the Niger Delta Peoples Salvation Force (NDPSF), Asari Dokubo, has described the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) leader, Nnamdi Kanu, as an ‘ingrate’. Dokubo was reacting to the attack on the former senate president, Ike Ekweremadu, by a mob believed to be members of IPOB in Germany on Saturday. Ekweremadu was physically attacked by the mob when he traveled for an Igbo event in Nuremberg, Germany. In a video on YouTube, Dokubo described Kanu as an ‘ingrate’, adding that the attack on Ekweremadu by members of the group was “dastardly and cowardly”. According to the former militant leader, the ex-senate president was one of the people who ensured Kanu was released from prison. He said, “Fellow Biafrans, I saw this coming that a Frankenstein monster was being created. I saw the signal, I saw the red flag and I warned you that if something is not done about Nnamdi Kanu, he will consume the Igbo people. And you did not listen. “I took some time more than 24 h...

Wilfred Ndidi’s second-half header earned Leicester City a deserved point and denied Frank Lampard victory in his first game at Stamford Bridge as Chelsea manager. Chelsea took the lead when 20-year-old midfielder Mason Mount scored a memorable first goal for the Blues after robbing Ndidi of possession just outside the Foxes penalty area before beating Kasper Schmeichel with a low drive. Lampard’s side started with real intent, Spain forward Pedro volleying into the side-netting and France midfielder N’Golo Kante denied a goal against his former club by Christian Fuchs’ fine challenge either side of Mount’s goal.

Former Deputy Senate President, Ike Enweremadu, has confirmed a physical assault on him by members of the Indigenous Peoples of Biafra (IPOB) in Nuremberg, Germany. The proscribed group had on Saturday shared a video on its Facebook page, Radio Biafra, showing its members attacking the senator who represents Enugu West. Radio Biafra wrote, “Senator Ike Ekwere Mmadu escaped being lynched by frustrated IPOB family members in Germany. He was seriously questioned and accused of conspiring with Nigeria government in proscribing and killing of hundreds of unarmed IPOB family members in Nigeria.” Enweremadu confirmed the attack in a statement by his Media Assistant, Uche Anichukwu, in Abuja, stating that he was safe. He, however, condemned the attack and said he had immediately reported it to the Nigerian Ambassador to Germany, Yusuf Tuggar. “I attended the Second Annual Cultural Festival and Convention organised by Ndi-Igbo Germany in Nurnberg today where I was billed to give a k...

Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola has insisted that he loves striker, Sergio Aguero despite their fight during his side’s Premier League 2-2 draw against Tottenham Hotspur at Etihad on Saturday. Raheem Sterling and Sergio Aguero both scored to put Man City up twice over the course of the 90 minutes, although on each occasion, Mauricio Pochettino’s men found a way back. Erik Lamela hit from range to cancel out Sterling’s early effort in the first half before a header from substitute, Lucas Moura tied the game at 2-2. Guardiola and Aguero had a heated argument when the Argentine international was substituted shortly after Moura’s header. However, Aguero felt the City boss was blaming him for the goal and argued with his coach as he made his way off the pitch. Speaking on the development, Guardiola told reporters after the match: “Aguero believed I was upset with him for the goal we conceded. “The goal we conceded was a corner. I wanted one on one movement. “He thoug...

A much thinner looking Anthony Joshua says he’s now properly motivated to beat Andy Ruiz Jr., and he’s ready to become a two-time heavyweight world champion on December 7. Joshua (22-1, 21 KOs) states that Ruiz Jr. is only “digging his own grave” by his trash talking that he’s doing now. Ruiz’s team is still in negotiations with Joshua’s promoter Eddie Hearn to discuss the venue for the December 7th rematch. Hearn has already announced that the second Joshua-Ruiz fight will be staged in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, but Ruiz Jr. says he wants the rematch to take place in New York again. According to Boxing News 24, it’s believed that Hearn will sweeten the deal by giving Ruiz a bump up in pay from the $9 million that he’s set to get. Just how much of an increase Ruiz Jr. will get is unclear. Obviously if Joshua is getting between $40 million to $90 million for the fight, it’s grossly unfair for Ruiz to be getting $9 million. If Joshua is getting $60 million, it makes sense for Ruiz ...
