Opinion: Man City are scoring the goals but Arsenal looks good to win the league
The
fact is there are only 16 games left to go in the league and Arsenal
are top. They’ve played everyone once and they have collected more
points than anyone else so far. Not just this season, either, they were
consistently the best team in the country in 2013. This is no flash in
the consistency pan from the north London side.
Perhaps someone should tell the media about this.
Having the best defence isn’t a guarantee either with the team which conceded the least goals winning the title 46 per cent of the time, in case you were wondering. What is needed is a balance between the two as well as consistency.

It would be fair to say that the title race is too close to call, something you won’t hear many pundits admit. No-one expected Arsenal to be at the top of the league, they never do.
For the past seven or eight years Arsenal have been the ones all the so-called experts have been predicting would drop out of the top four. That didn’t work out too well for them. This season that’s where Arsenal were supposed to be, battling for fourth place, not 14 points ahead of the current champions despite losing to them.
Manchester City might have scored four against Cardiff at home but they conceded two as well. Wrong offside flags have saved them from conceding even more than they did against Arsenal, Newcastle and Liverpool.
Arsenal, on the other hand, have conceded only one goal at home in the last nine games in all competitions. Since they shipped six at the Eithad they’ve conceded two goals in seven games, home and away. That’s the same number City conceded on Saturday in case you missed that bit above.
All season we’ve heard that if City sort out their away form, the league is in the bag, but at what point does it become obvious it is still an issue? Is it when they draw at Blackburn in the FA Cup? Or what about when they need a dodgy decision to overcome Newcastle?
None of this means I’m discounting City, far from it; I may be biased but I’m not insane. They are only one point behind Arsenal so it would be stupid to rule them or Chelsea out.
But the key point there is ‘behind Arsenal’ – it’s time Arsenal were taken seriously and not dismissed so easily. They are scoring, they are keeping clean sheets [the most in the league] and but for the nine goals conceded in two games which were aberrations, they’ve conceded just 10 in the other 20 and not more than one in any of those. They’ve done all this while having more injuries than any other team in the league and a number of key players missing for most of the season.
No-one is running away with this league because, for now, they simply can’t get past Arsenal.
I wonder when that will become the narrative?

“They work at a job they don’t like which they are forced to do for various reasons and, further more,
have no rights like any other woman worker.”

Boko Haram strikes again in Borno, kills scores

Though details of the number of casualties was not available as of the time of filing this report, the Borno State Commissioner of Police, Lawan Tanko, told journalists that the terrorists killed a policeman and injured many people.
However, some residents who spoke on condition of anonymity, said many people were killed by the sect members, who went from house to house slitting their victims’ throats in the siege that lasted over an hour in the earlier hours of Wednesday.
This latest attack was not the first on the town, as it has been variously attacked by the sect in similar fashion.
Residents told journalists in Maiduguri on Thursday that the attackers rode on motorcycles and Hilux Toyota vehicles into the town from nearby bush.
They added that the attackers, who were armed with sophisticated weapons, attacked the police station first before they started killing residents.
One of the survivors, John Samuel, who spoke to journalists in Maiduguri said, “They drove from the nearby bush using motorcycles and carrying sophisticated weapons around 2am.”
He said that the attackers used rocket propellers to attack the station which caught fire immediately.
“Some of the policemen tried to engage them in a shoot out but they realised that the invaders had superior weapons so they had to run,” he said.
Samuel said that the attackers also raided homes killing and maiming residents before they fled the town through a bush path.
The state Commissioner of Police, Alhaji Lawal Tanko, who confirmed the attack, told journalists that, “I can confirm there was an attack on Banki town by suspected members of the Boko Haram group in the early hours of Wednesday in which my station in Banki was partially affected. I lost an officer and some sustained injuries.”
Meanwhile, the Borno-based vigilance group, the Civilian JTF, has called on the 7 Division, Nigerian Army, to relax the curfew in Maiduguri, to enable it to contribute more in checkmating suspected terrorists.

Update On Nollywood Actress, Yetunde Who Was Caught Stealing

Yoruba actress turned serial thief, Yetunde Akilapa, was caught red
handed on Sunday, January 13th at No 15 Ibitayo street in the Magodo
Phase 2 area of Lagos State for breaking into an apartment, just a year
after she was caught with bunch of master keys and arrested and arrested
by the police in Lagos.
The latest update on her shameful act is that the actress who is currently trending on the social media has been expelled from the Yoruba movie industry by the leadership of Odunfa Caucus, a group which she belonged due to her continuous involvement in dirty criminal acts.
Her family members have bailed her from police detention as the aggrieved people refused to press charges.
After she was granted bail last year, Yetunde claimed some people in the movie industry set her up but it seems there is more to her case as people are beginning to say she may be suffering from spiritual attack.

JAMB Alerts Public On Fake UTME E-facility Cards In Lagos
Alhaji Kamaldeen Oladeji, the Coordinator of the Board in Lagos, disclosed this to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos.
Oladeji said that the board’s annex in Lagos had been informed that some persons were selling fake e-facility cards for the board’s 2014 UTME.

26,000 Flee Homes As Mount Sinabung Erupts In Indonesia

Indonesia’s Mount Sinabung has erupted more than 30 times, spewing lava and ash clouds over a wide area, officials said, with more than 26,000 people now forced to flee their homes.
Mt Sinabung, which lies in the northwest of Indonesia’s Sumatra island, sent hot rocks and ash 5 kilometres into in the air, spreading hot clouds over a 4.5 kilometres radius, said the Centre for Volcanology and Geological Hazard Mitigation.
Enormous clouds rose from the mountain, as thick layers of grey ash blanketed plantations and nearby houses.
With the volcano erupting regularly, many of those who have left their homes since Mt Sinabung started erupting in September have fallen ill, a local government official said.
“Some refugees are sick, coughing mainly, and they are also in need of clean water,” said Robert Peranginangin,a spokesman for Karo district.
Volcanoes are a regular threat for many living near their fertile slopes in Indonesia. Mt Sinabung is one of 129 active volcanoes in Indonesia that straddle major tectonic fault lines, known as the Pacific Ring of Fire.

In August 2013, five people were killed and hundreds evacuated when a volcano on a small island in East Nusa Tenggara province erupted.

Suicide bomber kills 30 in Maiduguri

This year’s Eid Malud Festival was marred in Maiduguri, Borno State by a bomb blast at the busy Post Office Roundabout in Maiduguri, Borno State on Tuesday.
A lone suicide bomber, believed to be a member of the Islamist militant sect, Boko Haram, carried out the attack which eye witnesses said left no fewer than 30 people dead and about 50 others injured.
The attack which occurred at about seven hours after eight people died in an accident on the Osara-Okene Express Road, Kogi State, sparked protests by youths, who alleged that it was traceable to politicians.
The angry youths damaged former governor Ali Modu Sheriff’s office on Kashim Imam Way before they left for the Government Reservation Area where they also torched a building belonging to him.
It was gathered that the former governor, who was still in the state as of the time the explosion occurred, was hurriedly driven to the Maiduguri Airport en route for Abuja. He was said to have been escorted by a well armed police team.
Soldiers fired shots into the air to disperse the youths before cordoning off the roads around the blast site and the GRA.
Investigation, however, revealed that Improvised Explosive Devices were wired to a vehicle and detonated at the roundabout which also leads to the Monday Market, the busiest market in the troubled city.
There were however conflicting reports on how the lone suicide bomber arrived and detonated IEDs close to a roadblock mounted by the military near the roundabout.
While the spokesman for the 7 Division of the Nigerian Army Maiduguri, Col. Mohammed Dole, said the bomber drove a Honda car, Reuters said he arrived at the area in a tricycle laden with IEDs.
Dole, who blamed the attack on Boko Haram, said, “At about 14:13 hours on Tuesday, January 14, a Honda car laden with IEDs exploded near the Post Office area in Maiduguri metropolis. Members of the frustrated Boko Haram terrorists are suspected to be behind the bomb explosion.
“Many deaths and injuries were recorded and 10 vehicles and five tricycles are confirmed damaged and one suspect is arrested. This incident happened after a long period of relative peace in Maiduguri and environs.”
But the state Police Commissioner, Lawan Tanko, told Reuters that his men counted 17 bodies as of 2pm on Tuesday.
“My men counted 17 dead persons as of 2pm and they are still counting. I instructed my men to go to the University of Maiduguri Teaching Hospital and the Specialist Hospital in Maiduguri to verify if there are others,” Tanko added.
Tanko confirmed that the explosion was caused by a suicide bomber who drove a firewood seller truck and detonated a bomb in the middle of the road.
Tanko, who claimed that only five people were injured, added that security operatives were immediately sent to public buildings to prevent attacks on them by the rampaging youths.
A journalist working at the state television office, Abba Kankami, also told the British news agency that he counted 29 dead bodies.
“The attack happened just behind the fence of my office. I counted 29 bodies, including two kids and a mother. Lots of others seriously injured,” he said.
However, health workers claimed that 30 bodies were deposited at different hospital mortuaries in the city. They added that 50 injured persons were also brought in.
Another eyewitness, Aisha Hassan, said she saw two boys whose bodies were cut into pieces.
Hassan, who added that two cars immediately caught fire when the explosion happened, said, “I ran away because there was too much blood.”
A source told one of our correspondents that operatives who rushed to the scene of the blast which occurred at about 1.30pm, evacuated the injured and the dead to the hospitals.
When contacted, the Director of Defence Information, Maj.-Gen Chris Olukolade, also confirmed that security operatives had arrested a suspected insurgent in relation to the explosion.
He said the suspect was already assisting a team investigating the incident.
The state Governor, Kashim Shettima, condemned the blast, saying it was regrettable it happened at a time people were enjoying the return of peace to Maiduguri.
In a statement by his spokesman, Isa Gusau, Shettima expressed condolences to the families of those who lost their lives.
The statement reads in part, “He (governor) has directed the security to carry out a full scale investigation into the bomb explosion which resulted in the unfortunate youths’ rampage that led to the breakdown of law and order.
“The governor also condemned the uprisings in the last three days in the state capital which he described as unfortunate even though avoidable.”
He also said that the governor had directed the Ministry of Health to ensure that all the injured received proper medical attention.
The statement added that the governor had met with the National Security Adviser in Abuja on issues of security of lives and property in Borno State.
The governor appealed to all the residents of the state to remain law abiding and reminded them that peace was a collective duty of all.
In Kogi State, an accident involving a Toyota Hiace bus, a trailer and a truck claimed the lives of eight people on the Osara-Okene Express Road at about 6.30am on Tuesday.
The Police Public Relations Officer, Kogi State Command, Mr. Redengha Tampa, said the trailer collided with the truck and the bus.
All the dead were said to be the bus passengers. Two other occupants of the bus, who sustained injuries, were rushed to Abobo Clinic, Itakpe, for treatment.
The corpses were taken to the mortuary of the Federal Medical Centre, Lokoja.
Gunmen shoot Jonathan’s official photographer

Ewelike, a photojournalist with the News Agency of Nigeria is attached to the State House, Abuja, and he is currently acting as the President’s official photographer.
The father of two was reportedly shot at a close range in front of his house in Nyanya in the outskirts of the Federal Capital Territory, between 10pm and 11pm.
He was said to be returning to his house after filing the photographs he took during Jonathan’s visit to Shape Community in the FCT, where the President inaugurated the Operation Light Up Rural Nigeria Project when the incident happened.
An eyewitness told our correspondent that the attack was carried out by two men on a motorcycle.
The eyewitness said, “The two men were apparently waiting for him at his residence. While one of them was on the motorbike, the guy who pulled the trigger was standing, waiting for him.
“As the victim parked his car and was making his way into his house, the armed man shot him in the neck at a close range. The gunshot attracted some residents of the area, so the two men quickly sped off on the motorbike.”
No personal belonging was stolen from the victim.
Ewelike was rushed by his neighbours to the National Hospital, Abuja, where medical doctors as of Tuesday were attending to him.
Our correspondent visited the victim at the hospital on Tuesday.
A source in the hospital said the x-ray conducted on the photographer showed that the bullet that entered through his neck was lodged at a spot close to his shoulder.
Armed men had also visited Ewelike’s residence few weeks back.
They left with his working tools, including his camera and a laptop and a few other personal effects.
Our correspondent learnt that security agents were already investigating the attempt on Ewelike’s life.
The Police Public Relations Officer, FCT Command, Altine Daniel, on Tuesday confirmed the incident.
Daniel said the FCT Commissioner of Police, Mr. Femi Ogunbayide, had directed that full scale investigation be carried out on the case.
