NIGERIA’S EAGLETS FIRST TO SECURE 2019 FIFA U-17 WORLD CUP TICKET
Five-time world champions Nigeria’s Golden Eaglets became the first African team to book a 2019 FIFA U-17 World Cup ticket after 1-0 defeat of Angola in Dar es Salaam on Wednesday.
Olakunle Olusegun earned the ticket to the tournament semi finals and to Brazil 2019 when he hooked a 21st-minute penalty to the roof of the net with Angola’s goalkeeper Geovani stranded. But the Golden Eagles were guilty of profligacy and the technical crew certainly has much to do still.
As happened against host nation Tanzania on Sunday, the Eaglets proved to be masters of the use of space and close control, but they mostly lacked the right ideas and punch in the final third, just as some passes went astray at critical moments.
Two-goal hero against Tanzania, Wisdom Ubani could have been on the scoresheet in the 11th minute but his fierce effort from a 22 –yard free kick went narrowly off target.

Atiku: Politics Of Nigerianness By Ray Ekpu
The ruling party, APC, and President Muhammadu Buhari’s lawyers have filed court papers in response to Atiku Abubakar’s claim that, it is he, not Buhari who won the last Presidential election in Nigeria. He asked the Election Tribunal to either declare him elected or cancel the election entirely and direct INEC to do it again.
In the papers filed before the Tribunal APC and Buhari claim that Mr. Atiku Abubakar is not a Nigerian by birth and therefore was not qualified to contest the election. It also, flowing from this, means that he has no locus standi to query the outcome of the election. It would be interesting to learn something from the lawyers on both sides of the battle line. But whatever is the eventual outcome, we have witnessed before a similar case in our political history, the case of someone, a politician, accused of non-Nigerianness. On January 24, 1980 the ruling party, National Party of Nigeria (NPN) had deported a GNPP leader in Borno State (now Borno/Yobe), Mr Abdulrahman Shugaba Darman, saying that he was a Chadian, not a Nigerian.
