2015 FIFA Ballon d’Or three-man shortlist to be announced on Monday

By
The final three-man shortlist for the 2015 FIFA Ballon d’Or will be revealed on Monday afternoon.
Twenty-three players were nominated for the prestigious award by world football’s governing body and France Football magazine in October.

Only one Briton, Real Madrid’s Gareth Bale, and five Premier League-based players – Sergio Aguero, Kevin De Bruyne, Yaya Toure, Alexis Sanchez and Eden Hazard – were in that list.
However, they will now be reduced to just three names, with the announcement made in a show broadcast on FIFA.com, www.francefootball.fr and FIFA’s YouTube channel at 1pm on Monday.
Sky Sports’s Kate Abdo will make the announcement, when the nominees for several other individual awards will be revealed, including Women’s World Player of the Year, World Coach of the Year for Women’s Football and the Puskas Award for the best goal of the year.
Meanwhile, a three-man shortlist for the FIFA World Coach of the Year for Men’s Football will also be named on Monday.
The winners of those prizes, as well as the Ballon d’Or itself, will be revealed in a ceremony in Zurich on January 11 201

See Wooden Bridge Constructed By Young Men In Adamawa State Without Government Support

By
This wooden bridge was constructed by young men in Adamawa without government support. The old bridge was destroyed by Boko Haram. It was a very important bridge that connects Adamawa North and Adamawa Central. Even the governor and other important people in the state use this wooden bridge when they visit their villages. Instead of rebuilding the bridge, the Adamawa state government recently announced that it will spend 200 million Naira on prayer warriors. I believe that is a misuse of public money. Nigerians are praying daily. You don't need to spend millions on prayers. The North East states have a lot of work to do in rebuilding the communities and infrastructures destroyed by Boko Haram. I don't think the governors in the region understand the magnitude of the problem. It is time for them to wake up and get their priorities right. If you know the Adamawa State governor, tell him that rebuilding this bridge is an important and urgent project.
