MCMXIV

Essays on Nigeria, geopolitics, and global affairs. Context, history, and clear thinking over noise. Puncturing inflated biases and misconceptions about Islam.

A young woman not yet 30 built a mini stadium for her amateur team in Kano.

Now, Kano Pillars, the state’s ‘biggest’ professional club is shamelessly training there.

The mediocrity and lack of pride among our football administrators is beyond embarrassing.

El Club Deportivo Palestino lamenta profundamente el sensible fallecimiento de Saleem Al-Ashqar, arquero palestino de 32 años que defendía los colores del Khadamat Khan Younis y que perdió la vida a manos del ejército israelí.

Nos destroza que hechos como este sigan ocurriendo. Exigimos justicia y paz para #TodoUnPueblo 🇵🇸

[WelBeast @WelBeast]

In the Premier League, a club can submit a maximum of 25 senior players for the official squad registration (the “25-man squad list”).

But the question many are asking is, why 25? Because 25 in this case is exactly the same number of days since Arsenal won the league title.

Israel has given us OnlyFans, War, Debt, and illegal nuclear weapons that threaten the world.

Iran has given us algebra, chemistry, and Medicine.

[Atlético de Madrid @Atleti]

Comunicado oficial con nuestras aclaraciones sobre el comunicado oficial de nuestros vecinos @realmadrid:
1. Se os cortó el vídeo del Papa donde decía que también era del Atleti.
2. Habréis confundido la educación con agradecimiento, pero para que no haya dudas: no os agradecemos nada.
3. Ni estudiamos ni valoramos ninguna oferta por Julián.
4. Cómo no nos vamos a llevar bien, si nos hacéis reír aún más que el @FCBarcelona_es.
