CASEMIRO: The Best Defensive Midfielder in the Last 10 Years?

Carlos Henrique Casimiro (born 23 February 1992), known as Casemiro, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a defensive midfielder for Spanish club Real Madrid and the Brazil national team.

Considered the best defensive midfielder in the last decade. If Man United get their man, he will be an upgrade to the bodies they currently have in the middle. 

One of Scott Mctominay and Fred should be sold. To make way for another top talent. In my opinion, CASEMIRO alone is not enough to get United back on their feet. 

Manchester United will need more bodies in the midfield. At least two top talents. 

For now, I don't trust Bruno Fernandes. His form has tailed off.

Welcome to Old Trafford, CASEMIRO!!!

OKADA: LAGOS GOVT EXTENDS BAN TO 4 MORE LGAS, 5 LCDAS FROM SEPT 1

Lagos State Government, on Thursday, extended a ban on the activities of commercial motorcycles, popularly known as Okada, to four more Local Government Areas (LGAs) and six Local Council Development Areas (LCDAs).

Effective from September 1, 2022, Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu directed enforcement teams to fully implement the proscription order and bust erring riders across the councils listed in the Okada ban.

The additional places are Kosofe, Oshodi-Isolo, Somolu and Mushin Local Government Areas. The Development Area Councils are Ikosi-Isheri LCDA, Agboyi-Ketu LCDA, Isolo LCDA, Bariga LCDA, and Odi-Olowo LCDA.

The latest pronouncement came about three months after Sanwo-Olu ordered a total restriction on Okada in six LGAs, comprising Eti-Osa, Ikeja, Surulere, Lagos Island, Lagos Mainland, and Apapa, as well as LCDAs under them.
This brings it to 25 councils of the 57 councils in which Okada activities have been proscribed.

Announcing the ban at a press conference held at the Government secretariat in Alausa, Commissioner for Transportation, Dr. Frederic Oladehinde, said the extension of the proscription order was a move by the State Government to sustain the gains recorded in the ongoing action against Okada operations in the State.

The commissioner said Okada accidents and fatalities had reduced by 63.7 per cent across the 15 local councils where the first phase of ban had been enforced, stressing that the development also significantly brought down the rate of crimes associated with motorcycles.

This, Oladehinde said, led to resolutions reached at a Stakeholders Forum, last Tuesday, with interest groups in which the participants unanimously urged the Government to make the Okada ban State-wide.

 He said: “The Ministry in conjunction with the inter-ministerial committee on Okada, having critically accessed these resolutions and the challenges of Okada operations on the security architecture of the State, recommended to Mr. Governor not to go back on the already laid down phase ban in a bid to sustain the gains.

“Based on the apparent positive impact of the ban and the resolution of the Stakeholders’
Forum, Mr. Governor has approved the ban of Okada in another four LGAs and their respective five LCDAs for the second phase of the total ban, in addition to the on-going ban in the six LGAs and their respective LCDAs.”

The State Government advised residents to embrace alternative means of transportation for their journey, noting that the State had provided safe and sustainable First- and Last-Mile Transport Scheme, BRT Scheme, e-hailing taxi Scheme and other acceptable means for the safety of commuters.

Oladehinde disclosed that 7,500 motorcycles had been impounded and crushed in the ongoing enforcement, while resistance had dropped sharply. He issued a stern warning to riders who may want to flout the proscription order, stressing that the enforcement would not be sparing.

The Commissioner said the State Government had interventions in place to empower the affected Okada riders as an alternative means of livelihood. He urged them to embrace the intervention programmes which are being coordinated by six Government ministries and also Lagos State Employment Trust Fund (LSETF).

He said: “It is important to reiterate the State Government’s commitment to the safety, security of lives and properties in the State. In exercising this, any motorcycle impounded will be crushed and the process will be made public.

“Both riders and passengers arrested on proscribed routes will be made to face the full wrath of the law in line with the provision of Section 46, sub-section 1, 2 & 3 of the Transport Sector Reform Law (TSRL), 2018.”

Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Gbenga Omotoso, observed that the last Tuesday meeting with stakeholders reviewed the enforcement action taken since the total ban, pointing out that the feedback from the public informed further measures to curtail the activities of the commercial motorcycles.

He said Okada riding remained alien to the State’s integrated transportation master plan.

The ban enforcement will be supervised by the Office of the Special Adviser to the Governor on Transportation.

EFCC Arrests Social Media Influencer Over Fraud, Remanded In Prison ...

Before Emilia Portia was nabbed by the EFCC for defrauding her Facebook followers of 110 million naira Ponzi investment, she had actually been in the business of scamming her followers on social media but unlike my good lady, Amanda Chisom, who she mentored on how to scam gullible Facebook people, she was not outright and loud  with her scam.

She packaged herself very well as a well-to-do socialite who is the chairman of a fake bank, so it was easy for gullible people to fall for her antics.

 

Before her present ordeal with EFCC, in 2015, she orchestrated a big heist among Nigerians in the diaspora who supported the former president, Good luck, Jonathan.

 

She appeared rich, so it was easy for the diaspora Goodluck Jonathan supporters to believe her and part with their hard-earned money.

My friend Uyai Abasiama James was scammed 40 million by the legendary Portia using that scheme in 2015  and their only connection was that they both supported Goodluck Jonathan in 2015. 

 

After she made away with the scam and her victims were helpless to recover their money, she built for herself a mansion in Lekki, where she is presently living from the loot of her scam. 

 

After the 2015 scam, the same lady introduced MMM to her followers, where she cashed out before introducing Longrich.

 

Her method was simple; she is a socialite, a British trained lawyer from a popular family in Rivers state, and a generous philanthropist who did giveaways on Facebook, so her audience believed her to the point of death.

 

Thank goodness that her current victims, whom she scammed 110 million, refused to allow their money to go like that, the way her previous victims did as they silently petitioned the EFCC, which went into action to arrest her and arraign her in court yesterday.

 

I have come to realize that most young people who have no verifiable business funding their soft lifestyle on Facebook are scammers and criminals. All of them, including the one that claims that they are self-made.

 

Dear young Hustler, you are doing well. 

Trust me when I say this, you are doing well. 

Your progress might be slow, but don't be too hard on yourself.

 

Don’t allow these  yahoo boys and girls to distract you from your mission. 

Keep building!

THE WORD OF WISDOM BY THE SPIRIT by Ben Jossy Olofu

The word of wisdom is the manifestation of the Spirit which produces a specific revelation of instruction to solve problems and bring solution.

The word of wisdom is a revelation from God concerning what to do, when to do it and how to do it.

The word of knowledge is only informative, the word of wisdom is informative and instructive.

The word of wisdom produces divine interventions, it aids in the working of miracles.

It is not human wisdom, but divine revelation of wisdom from the Spirit of God.

From Noah and the Ark,

To Abraham leaving his father's house even though he was prosperous there,

From Joseph bringing solution after interpreting the dream of Pharaoh,

To Moses telling the people to move toward when there was no where to move toward to,

And stretching his rod to part the sea,

And down to giving for about 70 elders of Israel to present themselves for impartation of power,

All the design of the tabernacle, the ordinances, laws and tenets of the Old Covenant,

We see always manifest, a fragment of the wisdom of God given to men to do things which could not be done by natural wisdom, and many times, if natural wisdom produces such instructions, it will produce no power, solve no problems and proffer no solutions to problems.

The word of wisdom can seem to be ambiguous, or sometimes foolish, because such instructions can often times defy the laws of logic, science and and the normal wisdom of nature.

The nine manifestations of the Spirit can solve any problem on earth,

And the word of wisdom aids in bringing God's Omniscience to us, then when we act on it, we see instant or gradual results in the aspect that His wisdom addresses.

God loves us and has given us His Spirit. We Need to understand that we have a level playing ground with all the men who operated in this manifestation from the Old Testament to New Testament times. 

There is nothing available to them that is not available to us today. We will pursue spiritual things and keep the rivers of living water flowing, of which the word of wisdom is one of its streams.

The word of wisdom is not limited in operation, no manifestation of the Spirit is limited in operation, this is because God is not limited in His Omnisciece, He knows all facts, has all the information that could put us over in any aspect of life. 

We need to draw, or rather we need to relax and recieve without restrictions, His words of wisdom to us is for present times, for the future, until Jesus comes, then only shall it cease.

His words of wisdom covers healing and health, deliverance from evil and from evil men, instructions for any aspect of ministry, instructions for natural things like marriage, education, business, job and day to day activities that cover every sphere of our existence. 

Surely we see, that God has given us everything that has to do with life and godliness for us to enjoy here on this earth and in the world to come. 

Hallelujah.
