Man Utd Have Sacked Jose Mourinho after the club made their worst start to a season in almost 30 years, the Premier League club announced on Tuesday. The 55-year-old Portuguese’s last match in charge was the 3-1 defeat by league leaders Liverpool on Sunday which left them 19 points behind their opponents. It is United’s worst start in the league since 1990 and even his ambition of reaching the top four and a Champions League qualification spot is in danger with the club 11 points adrift of those places. Despite the club having reached the Champions League knockout stages — they face an intimidating last-16 tie with Paris Saint-Germain — a mix of the results, dressing-room discord and criticism of the board’s transfer policy proved potent factors in the decision to dismiss him. “Manchester United announces that manager Jose Mourinho has left the club with immediate effect,” a club statement said. “The club would like to thank Jose for his work during his time at Manchester United a

After a marathon meeting between the two parties which lasted over six hours, the two parties stormed out of the venue with either side shifting ground.

The meeting which was the fifth one in a series in less than two months,was convened basically to find lasting solutions to the ongoing strike by the university teachers. Since the strike began on November 4,four other meetings held in the past, failed to provide solutions as both parties had always failed to reach common ground. Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige, stold newsmen shortly after the meeting that December 17 had been fixed as nex

Veteran Yoruba actress, Fausat Balogun, popularly known as Madam Saje, has cleared the air on the perception most people have about luxurious lifestyle of  stakeholders in the movie industry. According to her there is hardship in Nollywood as she voiced out to Nigerians on the financial crisis affecting the movie industry. Below is what she said during an interview about challenges facing the Nollywood Industry; “Our leaders should have mercy on us. There is suffering in Nollywood. I just pray that God will make them have good thoughts towards us. If we are treated the way actors are treated in western countries, you can imagine where we would be. The only thing keeping many of us here is the passion we have for the job. If not for that, some people would have resorted to selling wares at Oshodi. There are no structures in place and pirates are also dealing with us. “As for me, I have spent over 45 years in this industry; so, it is something that is already part of me. I cannot rea

General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has warned church members to stop buying any item that displays his picture. Speaking at the ongoing Holy Ghost Congress 2018 at Mowe in Ogun, Adeboye said he had nothing to do with the items such as stickers, key holders and books, among others. According to Adeboye, displaying his pictures on items was against God. He said he did not approve anyone to use his picture on key holders, stickers and other items. “I am human, I am not God, and I am not ready to take the Glory of God”, NAN quoted him as saying. “What these people are doing can lead to trouble for me, for God will not share his glory with anyone. If someone shares Glory with God, the person is as good as dead. “If you see anyone selling any item with my picture or my wife’s picture on it, report them to the police,” Adeboye said.

In Nigeria today, there are general perceptions about the value of the courses studied at the university. Some courses are seen as useless because career opportunities for them in Nigeria are very low and they are not generally valued. And some are seen as very perspective because they have the value already in Nigeria and they come with more opportunities than every other course. Medicine remains the number one best course to study in Nigeria only because of the general belief that jobs are readily available for medical graduates. But this opinion is beginning to change especially with how things are currently going on in the country. It is quite difficult to list twenty top university courses in Nigeria because there are no standard data to rank courses in our country as the best. But based on perception and marketability of Nigerian university courses and how graduates are doing in Nigeria, here is our opinion on the top 20 best courses to study in Nigeria. Please note, that ther

The National President, Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), Professor Biodun Ogunyemi, has directed the striking lecturers in public universities to be ready for a very long strike. He stated this in a bulletin he sent to members of the union. He said, all ASUU members should ” be on the watch and prepare for a long drawn out struggle to salvage the university system”. According to him, members should  remain steadfast “and resolute in the face of intimidation or antics employed by government through Vice chancellors and governing councils to undermine the ongoing struggle”. “Government is yet to change its ‘ keep them talking’  style and stance as all the meetings held so far with the Minister of Education are yet to resolve any of the demands of ASUU”. Also speaking after their Zonal Meeting held at Ladoke Akintola University of Technology, Ogbomoso, the ASUU chairman, University of Ibadan, Dr. Deji Omole said the Ibadan zone of ASUU has fully mobilised her members to e
