NNL: Crown FC Thrash Joy Cometh FC Of Lagos |OGBOMOSO INFO|






The joy of Joy Cometh Football Club of Lagos having won at home in their week two (2) game and hoping to steal a show on the road was put on hold by Crown Football Club of Ogbomoso as the Ajilete Warriors walloped the visiting Lagos based side by three (3) unreplied goals .

The Soun Stadium was agog today Saturday 7th December, 2019 as the ever dedicated fans and supporters cheer the Ajilete Warriors to a resounding victory in the week three (3) Group B2 fixtures of the Nigeria National League (NNL).

The first five minutes witnessed both sides playing well , dishing out passes and defending well with good saves by the goal keepers until the Ajilete Warriors resumed intense pressure on the guests in a bid to secure an early lead.

The pressure paid off for the homers in the twelfth (12th) minute when Abbey Thompson dropped into the net Wale Farayola's volleyed ball that barbed goal keeper Alabi Segun in goal for the Lagos based side.

The efforts of Maloma Taofeek's well coordinated midfield was fruitless as Edoka Owoicho and Monsuru Rafiu curtailed all their tactical and technical moves.

Abbey Thompson fired home Wale Farayola's assist in the twenty eighth (28th) minute to increase the tally for the Ajilete Warriors and those were the only goals scored in the first half.

The Lagosians came into the second half full of energy with well tailored final passes as well as firing from all cylinders but could not have any goal to show for it.

The third (3rd) and final goal of the exclusive encounter came in the fifty first (51st) minute when Adeyemi Adeyeye ballooned in a dropped ball by goal keeper Segun Alabi from a ballistic shot by Moses Mustapha after cornering Love Felix and Onanuga Wale at the left flank.

Crown FC will play host to Stationery Stores of Lagos in the week four (4) Group B2 league fixtures of the NNL on Sunday 15th December, 2019 at the Agege Stadium in Lagos.

Akudaaya: Tinubu, Abacha and Shettima’s Theory of Ruthless Leadership | Festus Adedayo

  OPINION By Festus ADEDAYO In what seems to affirm that he wears controversies like apparel, vice presidential candidate of the All Progressives Party (APC), Kashim Shettima, leapt into yet another at the twilight of last week. On Thursday at the 96th-anniversary celebration of the Yoruba Tennis Club in Ikoyi, Lagos state, Shettima was quoted to have said that Nigeria needed the “hospitality” of General Sani Abacha, Nigeria’s despotic military ruler; Nigeria’s own contribution to the list of infamous rulers who ruled the world with infernal ruthlessness. As the controversy over what he actually said raged, Shettima came out with a clarification: He actually said that in 2023, Nigeria needed a president who possessed “a dose of ruthlessness and taciturnity”. Nigerians have since been engaged in dissecting what lay atop the mind of a man who could be the country’s vice president. “We need a leader with a dose of ruthlessness and taciturnity of General Sani Abacha… Nice men do not ma...

Oyo Speaker Meets Senate Leadership, Deliberates State Assembly, LG Autonomy |OGBOMOSO INFO|

The Speaker of the 9th Oyo State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Adebo Ogundoyin met the Senate President, Senator Ahmed Lawan to deliberate issues around financial autonomy for States Assembly and local governments. The brief meeting which was held yesterday after a national legislative assignment in Abuja, it’s considered necessary to improve cooperation between the National Assembly (Nigerian Senate and House of Representatives) and the State legislative arm. According to Ogundoyin, the wide gap between the National and the State assembly needs to be bridged to ensure that the common interest of the people are genuinely and adequately represented. He noted that the local government and State Assembly are closer to the people, saying the financial autonomy is essential towards meeting grassroot needs and making the State lawmakers run their legislative duties without hindrances. He said, “The distinguished Senate President, Senator Ahmed Lawan is a stakeholder in the nation...

LAUTECH: Solving One Problem But Creating Another |Adewuyi Adegbite

    By Adewuyi Adegbite The sole ownership of the Ladoke Akintola University of Technology, Ogbomoso (LAUTECH) by Oyo State is a welcome development. Joint ownership of the institution by Oyo and Osun states has culminated into protracted crises in the institution, which has had telling effects on the students, the staff and its rating as the best state university in Nigeria as well as the relationship between the owner states. Thus, the taking over of the institution by the Oyo State Government is applauded by all and sundry as a pragmatic way of engendering peace. However, the report credited to the Oyo State Governor, Engr. Seyi Makinde that the institution would be run as a multi-campus is sad news for all Ogbomoso indigenes as well as lovers of justice. I wish to advise the Oyo State Government to reconsider the idea in the interest of peaceful coexistence among the various zones of the state, which is homogenous. Numerically and population-wise, Ogbomoso geo-political zo...
