Heartland FC was gradually becoming a club of crises as the season 2023/2024 also hit the club with diverse crises. From the change of leadership to a new state Governor to a change in management structure, change in coaches and players, etc. The club seemed just doomed until the breaking news that stunned Nigerian football entirely. The arrival of Mr. Mike Idoko, another sports guru with a difference. Idoko seems a better option for the team like many thought the arrival of Kennedy Boboye as Technical Adviser was, but the club owner, the Governor of Imo State Hope Uzodinma never…
It’s quite unfortunate that certain so-called Nigerian journalists don’t even know how to write objectively. They are the ones causing chaos in our football and among stakeholders. You might decide to hype your favorite or wish candidate as a coach but not try to drag the other coach down. This is only done by our African quack journalists. You won’t find this anywhere near top footballing nations. Liking Amunike doesn’t mean you should insult the person of Finidi. Likewise, celebrating George Finidi’s appointment shouldn’t also make you in any way insult Emmanuel Amunike. This is what exposes journalists that have…

Sports minister,…
Nigeria on the exit point of 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers-* The NFF, the coach, or the players? Who is to be blamed? We are so used to the phrase “When you fail to plan you plan to fail. “The Super Eagles never planned well, which most of us noted before our game against South Africa. Someone was saying a prayer before the SA game. I said you can’t be praying at this point and expect results with such a sloppy preparation. Does Finidi have what it takes? This is his biggest job, so no one can precisely answer that…

To understand the new smart watched and other pro devices of recent focus, we should look to Silicon Valley and the quantified movement of the latest generation. Apple’s Watch records exercise, tracks our moves throughout the day, assesses the amount of time we are stood up and reminds us to get up and move around if we have been sat for too long – let’s not forget Tim Cook’s “sitting is the new factor” line. As you’re tapping, scrolling, and swiping on your phone, you probably don’t give much thought to the fact that your apps are consuming electricity -…
