mikel-obi-officially-changes-name

MikelIn attempting to clarify his actual name, the Chelsea veteran has just made everyone very, very confused. Jon Obi Mikel has been called many things by Chelsea fans during his decade at Stamford Bridge… many of which are far too rude, reports UK Mirror. Mikel Mikel However, while he may have got used to the abusive slurs hurled his way by a section of the Stamford Bridge support, it seems the Nigerian midfielder has finally had enough of people getting his actual name wrong. That is why the Chelsea stalwart who was was born John Michael Nchekwube Obinna (the son of Michael Obi) in 1987, but a mistake in 2003 changed things for the midfielder. has just officially changed his name… to Mikel John Obi. For starters, it turns out that he was never actually called ‘Mikel’. The Guus Hiddink favourite was born John Michael Nchekwube Obinna – ‘Mikel’ only became a thing when the Nigerian FA mistakenly used Mikel instead of Michael on his submission form during the registration process for the 2003 Fifa Under-17 World Championships. So much so, that despite the fact it’s not actually his name, he’s been happy to be called John Obi Mikel ever since he joined Chelsea in 2006. It seems, he has now officially changed his name to… Mikel John Obi.

ex-militants-raise-alarm-2015-amnesty-stipends

File: Ex-militantsPORT HARCOURT—Ex-militants in the Niger-Delta, have accused the Amnesty Office in Abuja of allegedly hijacking part of the 2015 stipends budget. File: Ex-militants File: Ex-militants Speaking to journalists in Lagos, spokesman of the ex-agitators, Mr. Olotu Pella, said that during the protest by some ex-militants with some banks last year, the affected banks decided to return their stipends to the Central Bank of Nigeria, but some Amnesty Office staff, later allegedly hijacked the funds for themselves. “Today, if we call the Central Bank for the returned funds (stipends), officials will tell you that the stipends had been released to Amnesty Office and if you call Amnesty Office, they will say Central Bank is yet to return the money. “How can 2015 budgeted stipends remain in Central Bank as at July 2016? If it is true, it tells you the kind of leadership, the amnesty has. “Is the amnesty officials waiting for the affected camps in the returned money saga to blow-up pipelines before they will act? What type of leadership do we have in Amnesty Office that is yet to complete 2015 budget issue with Central Bank and they are boasting of going to the creek to dialogue with ex-militants over the Avengers threat?” Contacted, a source in Amnesty Office, who pleaded anonymity denied the allegation, though he noted that he had no official powers to speak on behalf of the office.

ikpeazu-ogah-ask-court-reject-ottis-joinder-application

Ikpeazu and Ogah—The Court of Appeal sitting in Abuja, yesterday, adjourned till today, to decide whether or not the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA, in Abia State, Dr. Alex Otti, should be joined as an interested party in an appeal challenging the removal of Governor Okezie Ikpeazu from office. Ikpeazu and Ogah Ikpeazu and Ogah A five-man panel of Justices of the court adjourned for ruling on the matter, after both Ikpeazu and Mr. Uche Ogah, who had already been issued a fresh Certificate of Return by the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, as governor of the state, opposed Otti’s bid to be joined in the dispute. Ikpeazu and Ogah, through their respective lawyers, Chief Wole Olanipekun, SAN, and Dr. Alex Iziyon, SAN, described Otti as a meddlesome interloper, who they said lacked the locus standi to be joined in an inter-party dispute. The duo argued that all issues relating to Abia State governorship election had already been settled by the Supreme Court, accusing Otti of attempting to re-litigate a case he fought and lost at the apex court level. Whereas Olanipekun contended that the appellate court lacked the jurisdiction to even entertain Otti’s application, Iziyon, applied for dismissal of the joinder-motion with substantial cost. Similarly, a gubernatorial aspirant of the PDP, Mr. Friday Nwosu, who is also laying claim to the governorship seat, equally urged the court to dismiss Otti’s application which he said was not only frivolous, but constituted an abuse of judicial process. Otti had through his lawyer, Mr. Yusuf Ali, SAN, begged the appellate court to join him in the matter, saying that he was entitled to be heard in view of the June 27 verdict of Justice Abang of the Federal High Court in Abuja that sacked Ikpeazu from office. He prayed the court to invoke section 30 of the Court of Appeal Act and join him in the matter even though he was not part of the process at the lower court.
