๐จ Manchester United remain interested in Jarrod Bowen, who is expected to leave West Ham after their relegation.
West Ham want around ยฃ50m, but a fee closer to ยฃ40m could be enough to get a deal done. Bowen's preferred No. 20 shirt is currently vacant at Old Trafford.

When Iโm critical of the military, itโs not because Iโm ungrateful or unaware of the sacrifices that many innocent soldiers are making at the frontlines. Itโs because of nights like this in 2012, when 150 humans were set on fire in a church & assailants alleged to be in military uniforms stood around the building to shoot anyone who tried to escape. Itโs because when I asked how they got the uniforms, where they got bulletproof vests and weapons or if indeed, the assailants were soldiers, I was met with radio silence.
I went to secondary school in Barkin Ladi 20 years ago. This is what SS1 - 3 boys were doing, night shifts in the blistering cold. I did it too. My mates in Oyo were sleeping or studying. Iโve watched this shit deteriorate in real time.
Barkin Ladi now looks nothing like it did when I graduated 14 years ago. I went to the same junction we used to buy stuff during outings last year & I was shaking. They donโt speak the same language. Crisis after crisis. Slowly, the people who used to till those lands are now doing menial jobs in the south. The names of the villages have changed. The senator representing that region was killed few days after I graduated when he attended a mass funeral of people who were massacred by the Fulanis who now occupy their homes. 14 years ago guys.
Trying to raise awareness about this state-backed conquest feels like screaming under water.
Few months ago, my aunt in mangu came to ask for money to trade cause she canโt farm anymore. Their farms were attacked 3 years ago. They wouldnโt dare go back.
For more than 10 years, weโve had internally displaced persons from Borno living in our house, after my mother took them in. They only go back to their so-called homes for funerals. 3 brilliant kids; Elizabeth, Margaret and Grace (named after my now late mother for her benevolence). The dad does security work, the mom cleans. Who knows what they couldโve made of themselves back home? I do, theyโd have been compost for aliens.
It always starts small then it spirals out of control. Weโve seen all kinds of terror. I wish they just came and shot people but thatโs not fun enough. Bullets are for runners. Theyโll slice pregnant women open to kill their fetuses. Theyโll feed women their kidโs fingers. They burn people alive, hack them with machetes. When people try to defend themselves, thatโs when soldiers come in. They call it farmer-herder clashes. They say cattle was rustled. Cattle was rustled? Thatโs why you renamed my village and put 200 people in a mass grave ?
I remember @YarKafanchan saying that she wept after the 2015 elections cause she knew her people would die like flies & then what happened in southern kaduna? When people talk, they say whereโs the evidence? But what about the bodies? Dying is a morbid thing to be skilled at but boy, we have experience.
Weโve seen โstrategistsโ platform them and defend all manner of wrongdoing on the alter of political correctness.
Omoh, let me just stop here.
Manchester United is looking for a 14th title for the last 13 years, but it took you 22 years to win your 4th. I genuinely don't know why you think you hold the cards here. ๐คญ๐คญ

Fellow Nigerians, good morning.
I woke up this morning after my church service with a deeply reflective heart, and despite every constraint, I felt compelled to share these thoughts with you.
Many people do not truly understand the silent pains some of us carry dailyโthe private struggles, emotional burdens, and quiet battles we face while trying to survive and serve sincerely in difficult circumstances.
We now live in an environment that has become increasingly toxic, where the very system that should protect and create opportunities for decent living often works against the peopleโa society where intimidation, insecurity, endless scrutiny, and discouragement have become normal.
More painful is when some of those you associate with, believing you would find understanding and solidarity among them, become part of the pressure you face. Some who publicly identify with you privately distance themselves or join in unfair criticism.
We live in a society where humility is mistaken for weakness, respect is seen as a lack of courage, and compassion is treated as foolishnessโa system where treating people equally is questioned simply because you refuse to worship status, tribe, class, or power.
Personally, I have never looked down on anyone except to uplift them. I have never used privilege, position, or resources to oppress others, intimidate the weak, or make people feel small. To me, leadership has always been about service, sacrifice, and helping others rise.
Let me state clearly: my decision to leave the ADC is not because our highly respected Chairman, Senator David Mark, treated me badly, nor because my leader and elder brother, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, or any other respected leaders did anything personally wrong to me. I will continue to respect them.
However, the same Nigerian state and its agents that created unnecessary crises and hostility within the Labour Party that forced me to leave now appear to be finding their way into the ADC, with endless court cases, internal battles, suspicion, and division, instead of focusing on deeper national problems and playing politics built more on control and exclusion than on service and nation-building.
Even within spaces where one labours sincerely, one is sometimes treated like an outsider in oneโs own home. You and your team become easy targets for every failure, frustration, or misunderstanding, as though honest contribution has become a favour being tolerated rather than appreciated.
And when you choose to leave so that those you are leaving can have peace, and you step out into the cold, you are still maligned and your character is questioned. Despite all your efforts to continue working for a better Nigeria and engaging people with sincerity and goodwill, those who do not wish you well continue to attack your character and question your intentions.
There are moments I ask God in prayer: Why is doing the right thing often misconstrued as wrongdoing in our country? Why is integrity not valued? Why is the prudent management of resources, especially when invested in critical areas like education and healthcare, wrongly labelled as stinginess? Why are humility and obedience to the rule of law often taken to be weakness rather than discipline?
Let me assure all that I am not desperate to be President, Vice President, or Senate President. I am desperate to see a society that can console a mother whose child has been kidnapped or killed while going to school or work. I am desperate to see a Nigeria where people will not live in IDP camps but in their homes. I am desperate for a country where Nigerian citizens do not go to bed hungry, not knowing where their next meal will come from.
Yet, despite everything, I remain resolute. I firmly believe that Nigeria can still become a country with competent leadership based on justice, compassion, and equal opportunity for all.
A new Nigeria is POssible. -PO
All Reform does is lie, lie, and lie again.
International students do not have access to student loans, despite paying far more than home students in tuition fees.
They pay their own fees, pay visa fees, pay NHS surcharge, work restricted hours, and still get used as a political punching bag.
