Aba-based Enyimba win 7th Nigeria Premier League title

Enyimba International have emerged as champions of the Nigeria Premier League for the seventh time after they secured the needed point in their 0-0 draw against hitherto title contenders, Warri Wolves.

The match was played on Sunday at the Aba International stadium home of Enyimba.
The Aba Elephants who had to play the most of Sunday’s clash with a man down following the red card given to Otor Ezekiel held their nerves to end their five year wait for another League crown after last wining in 2010.
With 69 points from 37 games, Enyimba are sure no team can catch up with them when the last set of games are played next weekend.
Before the latest acquisition, Enyimba won the title in 2001, 2002, 2003, 2005, 2007 and 2010. They were African Champions in 2003 and 2004. No other Nigerian club side has won the prestigious CAF Champions League.

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

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.
