Governor of Edo state, Adams Oshiomole says God loves Nigeria so much that he made Buhari President at this time in Nigeria's history. Oshiomole said this while entertaining some Muslims in the state during the Eid Mubarak ceremony yesterday July 6th
“We have to thank Allah for making it possible for Buhari to emerge. God so loves Nigeria that he brought Buhari at this time. If Buhari had not come, we will not know why the Nigeria government failed to tackle Boko Haram. They are now confessing like witches” he said
According to Oshiomole, the vengeance of God has fallen on PDP and he said it can be seen in the confusion that has trailed the leadership of the party in recent times.

According to reports, Emmanuel was walking on the road with his girlfriend, 24 year old Chinyere, when his attacker called her an "African monkey".

He died in the hospital yesterday Wednesday July 6th. Chidi had been living in Italy for eight months and was lodged in a shelter run by Catholic charity, Caritas. Himself and his girlfriend had fled to Italy after surviving Boko Haram attacks. Only recently, his girlfriend lost their baby. May his soul rest in peace Amen.

See the face of murdered Nigerian migrant, Emmanuel Chidi..waiting process to use his organs has started..
36-year-old Nigerian asylum seeker, Emmanuel Chidi Nnamdi, was beaten to death in a racist attack by an ultra of a local club soccer club Fermana who had insulted Nnamdi'd girlfriend Chinyere, calling her an "African monkey". Police said they have arrested the suspect. (pictured above is Chidi and the girlfriend)...
A local priest at the Fermo bishop's seminary where Chidi and Chinyere had been staying said the attack was probably linked to four bombs recently planted outside Fermo churches that had worked with migrants. The bombs, which caused little damage and hurt no one, were left outside the churches including the Duomo between February and May, Father Vinicio Albanesi said. All the churches were run by priests who are socially active in helping migrants, drug addicts and the homeless and marginalised.
According to Italian newspaper, Redazione ANSA, "waiting process before using the migrant's organs has been started. But Father Albanesi said there were legal problems since the woman he defended from the two attackers is his live-in companion but there is no proof they are married."
"So it isn't clear who can give authorisation (for the transplants)," the priest said

'Buhari, Osinbajo, Saraki, Governors can be arrested while in office' - Femi Falana
e' - Femi Falana
Femi Falana says a sitting president or governor who commits any
crime can be arrested and tried, saying according to the Supreme
Court ruling, there was no longer absolute immunity. The Senior
Advocate of Nigeria said immunity does not extend to electoral
fraud and asked Senate President, Bukola Saraki and his Deputy,
Ike Ekweremadu to face the forgery charges against them rather
than politicking about it, saying “they have no immunity to dodge
the charges against them.’’.
He said this while speaking on: “Limit of executive immunity” in
Benin to mark the 60th birthday of the Secretary to the State
Government (SSG) of Edo, Prof. Julius Ihonvbere
"The senate is now politicising the issue, saying it is political
victimization but not that the offence was not committed.
As leaders of the National Assembly, you are supposed to be
above board and that is even the more reason you must be
careful.
“But I want to remind the senate that the Attorney General
of the Federation is only answerable to his boss, who is the
president and nobody else.
“The same thing applies to the states, so there is no longer
absolute immunity in this country.
“And that is why what is happening in Ekiti today about
money found in a bank and the governor is saying it is
illegal to freeze his account that is not true.
“Any issue that is criminal in nature must be treated as
such,” he declared.

after partying together for the 4th night in a row. They actually

Ryan Giggs leaves Man U after 29 years, releases statement explaining why
statement explaining why
Manchester United legend Ryan Giggs left his role as assistant Man
U coach on Saturday after spending 29 years at the club- first as
a player since the age of 14, then the last three years as an
assistant coach under David Moyes and then Louis Van Gaal.
The Welshman, 42, has played more times for the club than anyone
else in history and is the club's most decorated player, having won
every major honour in club football. After Jose Mourinho's
appointment as coach, he felt it was the right time to leave. Read
Ryan Giggs' statement explaining why he left the club after the
cut....
"After 29 seasons at Manchester United as a player and assistant
manager, I know winning is in the DNA of this club - giving youth a
chance, and playing attacking and exciting football. It’s healthy
to have high expectations, it’s right to expect to win. Manchester
United expects, deserves, nothing less.
"This is why it is a huge decision for me to step away from the club
that has been my life since the age of 14. It has not been a
decision that I have made lightly. I'll take away so many special
memories as well as a lifetime of experiences that will, I hope,
serve me well in the future.
"However, the time feels right and, although I have no immediate
plans to step into management, it is where I want to be.
"I’ve been extremely fortunate in having two great managerial
mentors; first in Sir Alex, who I’ve spent the majority of my life
working with and learning from and who I believe will remain as
football’s greatest-ever manager and in more recent times, Louis
van Gaal, whose CV speaks for itself. The knowledge I have
gleaned from them has been invaluable.
"I want to reiterate my thanks to the backroom staff and support
teams at Manchester United I’ve worked with over the years. The
results on the pitch are a reflection of the hard work off it. I
would not have achieved the success I have without the dedication,
sacrifice and commitment of these people in creating the best
environment for the team to succeed.
"I want to congratulate José Mourinho on his appointment as
manager of the world’s biggest club. There are only a handful of
proven winners at the very highest level and José is unquestionably
one of them. I know the fans will welcome him.
"My final thank you is to the fans. I cannot begin to tell you how
much I will miss walking out at Old Trafford in front of you. It’s
extremely difficult to say goodbye after 29 years. I have loved
every minute both as a player and assistant manager. The support
you have always shown me has been phenomenal; thank you.
"It’s time for a new chapter and a new challenge. I’m excited
about the future - I’ve had the best apprenticeship into
management anyone could ever ask for."
Manchester United Executive vice-chairman, Ed Woodward said:
"Ryan’s place in the history of Manchester United is assured. He
has been a constant presence at the club since 1987 and, during
his playing days, regularly delighted crowds; first with his dazzling
wing play and later with his intelligence and ability to dictate a
game.
"He has tackled his coaching and management responsibilities with
similar rigour and diligence. The experiences and discipline he
developed at United will undoubtedly be a big help as he continues
to learn his trade. He has all the attributes to be a terrific
manager in the future. Everyone at the club wishes him well in his
new career. He will be missed but will always be welcome at
Manchester United."
