On Thursday evening, in #Lagos, #Nigeria, @Mathematical7 - Segun Odegbami, former @NGSuperEagles winger - and I drove, at his suggestion, to Oniru. He told me that a friend of his was putting up an a state-of-the-art photography exhibition centre there.

I didn’t realise that… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… ImageImage
Dayo has been to all 774 local governments in #Nigeria, to get amazing photographs of the country. This is just one of them. Image
This is Dayo showing @Mathematical7 and I what the Photography Experience Centre is going to look like…
Here are some of the on-site building plans… ImageImage

Breaking: @AAhmad_CAF, the former @CAF_Online President, is being questioned by BIANCO, #Madagascar’s anti-corruption commission, in Mahajanga, his hometown, right now. ImageImage
These are pictures taken outside BIANCO’s offices in Mahajanga, Madagascar on Tuesday. He is being accused of abuse of office.

I will update this thread as soon as I get more information. ImageImage
I understand @AAhmad_CAF was questioned by BIANCO but has been allowed to return home, for now.

The case he is being questioned about happened while Ahmad was the country’s Fisheries Minister.

Former @AFCAjax & @juventusfc player SundayOOliseh, the ex-@NGSuperEagles defender and captain, says in his autobiography, “Audacity to Refuse”, that former #Belgium @BelRedDevils captain, Eric Gerets (pictured), treated him and @V_Ikpeba with disdain, often making a mockery of… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… ImageImageImageImage
According to @SundayOOliseh, it got to a stage that he & @V_Ikpeba had to stand up for themselves, after yet another league defeat and Gerets began to abuse them again.

You can read the book excerpts below to read what happened.

Racism in #Belgian football has been going on… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… ImageImage
This was Gerets reaction, to the refusal of Oliseh and Ikpeba to be bullied further by him:

“Shocked at our audacity to refuse his abuse, he took it personally and REPEATED (emphasis mine) his favourite statement that would this time exhaust the last remnant of our respect for… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image

Breaking: The return #AFCON 2024 qualifier between the @AmavubiStars and #Benin’s Cheetahs, scheduled for Monday 27th March, hangs in the balance, over a venue dispute.
@RChipenda, @CAF_Online’s Development Director, told @FERWAFA that as a result of inadequate facilities at the venue chosen in Rwanda for the return leg, the Amavubi will have to play their return leg game in Cotonou on Monday.
But rather than wait in Cotonou to play the return leg, as @CAF_Online instructed, the @AmavubiStars returned to Kigali, after the 1-1 draw in the first game played.

On 14th March, in #Kigali, #Rwanda, @MosengoOmba, the General Secretary of @CAF_Online, called me a “mercenaire” (mercenary) because of my journalism, which criticises, FACTUALLY, what is going wrong in CAF. I am going to ask him who the real mercenary in African football is.
For the first time in the history of @CAF_Online, we have a General Secretary that is NOT the LEGAL national of any African country. Yes, he is of #DRC descent. But he has no legal citizenship of any country in #Africa. I will explain…
Under the laws of the Democratic Republic of Congo, dual nationality is strictly forbidden by law. Once you take up the nationality of another country, you CANNOT be a national of DRC. @MosengoOmba is a citizen of #Switzerland, and lost his DRC nationality, as a result.

A history lesson for the people of #Lagos, as taught by Oba Rilwan Akiolu, about how Lagos came to be. Pay attention!
Oba Akiolu: “Modern day Lagos was founded by Prince Ado, the son of the Oba of Benin, Prince Ado was the first Oba of Lagos, the son of the Bini King, Prince Ado, named the town Eko until the Portuguese explorer Ruy de Segueira changed the Maritime town to Lagos.”
Read the FULL statement of Oba Akiolu here ⬇️. No one should argue, ever again, that the Edo people founded Lagos. So when I am told, by SOME so-called Lagosians, to “go back to Edo State”, because I support @PeterObi, my soon-to-be president, y’all know where to go! 🖕🏾😂

An informed fan of @SheffieldUnited says @Dozymmobuosi is about to be named as the new owner of the club. “Announcement imminent”, he says. Hmmmmm.
I have just spoken with a colleague that spent two hours with Dozy at a London hotel last week. He says he is yet to be convinced by the defence that Dozy gave to him.
I also understand that the @EFL is yet to clear Dozy. But that Trevor Birch gave him a comfort statement that he has been using to push the narrative that the EFL has cleared him. I understand that as at last week, they needed him to offer proof of funds...
