Manchester United Sack Jose Mourinho

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 and to wish him success in the future.

“A new caretaker manager will be appointed until the end of the current season, while the club conducts a thorough recruitment process for a new, full-time manager.”

Niger Delta States Can Have 100% Of Oil Revenues, But… — Atiku

Presidential candidate of Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Atiku Abubakar, has said he was willing to let Nigeria’s oil-producing states have absolute control of crude oil revenues from their domains. He, however, noted that it would not be feasible to immediately implement such policies at this stage of nation’s development. Abubakar told The Africa Report that federating units once had considerable control of their resources, unlike the current federal laws that only allow 13 percent derivation for states in the Niger Delta, where crude oil is extracted. Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, Although Atiku acknowledged that the appropriate sharing formula might be difficult to say, as it would depend on negotiations, he recommended limited role for the Federal Govern-ment in appropriating crude revenues. “States can get more because in the First Republic, the regions had 50/50,” Abubakar told The Africa Report in an interview, Wednesday.
