Covid19: MURIC wants Nigeria to restrict International flights into the country

This advice was contained in a statement issued by the director of MURIC, Professor ISHAQ AKINTOLA.

Boko Haram insurgency: Retired generals, NEF, others warn against hiring mercenaries

The calls by Borno state Governor, BABAGANA ZULUM and some Senators on the federal government to hire mercenaries to clear the remnant of Boko Haram insurgents in the North-East have been attracting reactions.

This is because some retired generals and socio-political groups have faulted the call saying the country is capable of defending itself.

The recent brutal killings of 43 rice farmers at Kwashebe village in Borno State necessitate the call.

A former Chief of Defence Staff, JOSHUA DOGONYARO and a former General Officer Commanding, 1 Division, Major General ABIODUN ROLE in an interview said what the military needed was ammunitions to execute the war.

According to them, the military also required support of the citizens including the media, to help in the asymmetrical war.

Also, socio-political groups, including the Northern Elders’ Forum, and the Coalition of Northern Groups, have also kicked against faulted move.

Neymar double sinks Manchester United at old Trafford

Manchester United’s Champions League campaign is hanging in the balance as two goals from Neymar helped Paris St-Germain secure victory at Old Trafford.

MARCUS RASHFORD had cancelled out the Brazilian’s early opener with his third goal in four games against the French outfit.

But Marquinos’ excellent second-half finish put the visitors back in front and after United midfielder Fred had been sent off for a foul on Ander Herrera, before Neymar tapped home his 38th Champions League goal.

The result leaves United level with PSG and RB Leipzig on nine points in Group H and knowing they need a draw away to the German side next Tuesday to progress to the last 16.

With 38 goals he is now two behind Sergio Aguero, who is the second highest South American goalscorer in the competition.
