The Argentine attacker has never received a standing ovation at the Santiago Bernabeu and is only grudgingly admired by fans of Los BlancosCOMMENTIt was an iconic celebration. Lionel Messi had just decided a Clasico clash with a superb goal deep into added time, his 500th senior strike for Barcelona, and heldhis shirt aloft in front of the fans at the Santiago Bernabeu.Messi's 500th goal sees Barca beat MadridMost of them were furious, but Barcelona's fans loved it. For them, it was confirmation of what they have long known that Messi is there (and theirs) when it matters most. But Madrid have found themselves on the receiving end of his genius far more often than they would have wanted.Ronaldinho was given a standing ovation by many Madrid fans following a match-winning performance at the Bernabeu in 2005 (which, coincidentally, was Messi's Clasico debut), while Andres Iniesta was applauded off the pitch bymadridistaswhen he was substituted in Barca's 4-0 winin the cap

The left back was in a positive mood post-match, despite a 3-2 loss in Sunday's Clasico Real Madrid's lasts gasp Clasico defeat to Barcelona does not make the European champions inferior to their bitter rivals, insisted Marcelo as the fullback remained upbeat. Zidane however said "Madrid should've been smarter". Madrid's lead atop La Liga was erased as title holders Barcelona stunned the hosts 3-2 in a thrilling top of the table clash at the Santiago Bernabeu on Sunday. Lionel Messi scored in the 92nd minute his second of the match to silence Madrid and their fans in the Spanish capital after substitute James Rodriguez had equalised seven minutes earlier following Sergio Ramos' red card in the second half. With the result, Barca and Madrid moved level on points, though the latter have a game in hand in their pursuit of a first La Liga title since 2012, and Marcelo was in a positive mood post snatch."Everyone expects a lot of things from El Clasico.

Following the second Senate rejection of Mr. Magu, administration officials and sympathisers had cited section 171 of the constitution to buttress the claim that Mr. Magu does not need Senate confirmation. The provision stipulates that the President shall have the power to make appointments, including ambassadors, permanent secretaries, and heads of extra-ministerial departments. Ibrahim Magu, Acting Executive Chairman,EFCC the contentious provision now in dispute, Section 171 (4) states:“An appointment to the office of Ambassador, High Commissioner or other Principal Representative of Nigeria abroad shall not have effect unless the appointment is confirmed by the Senate.”The provision specifically does not make mention of heads of

Primate Elijah Ayodele, the Founder and General Overseer of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Private Elijah Ayodele, has described ex-President, Olusegun Obasanjo as the father of corruption. This is coming after the 80-year-old ex-President accused church leaders, of encouraging corruption in Nigeria. Responding to Obasanjo's accusation, Primate Ayodele who spoke to the Sun correspondents at his church headquarters at Oke-Afa Lagos State, said it was Obasanjo himself who introduced corruption into the church. It was Obasanjo himself who introduced corruption into the church when he invited eminent politicians and personalities into his church in Ogun State, to donate heavily to the church. “So, he has no moral right to condemn men of God, saying they encourage corruption" he said.

    North Korea has consistently issued threats of war toward the United States in recent decades, but the Trump administration's announced end of a "strategic patience" policy with Pyongyang has upped the ante in terms of warnings and bellicose rhetoric. North Korea's UN deputy representative, Kim In Ryong, on Monday unleashed at a hastily called UN press conference a torrent of threats, war scenarios and rhetoric aimed at the United States. The press event was held hours after US Vice President Mike Pence visited the demilitarized zone between North and South Korea. Pence warned North Korea not to test the resolve of the United States "or the strength of our military forces." In New York, North Korea returned verbal fire. North Korea's UN ambassador condemned the US naval buildup in the waters off the Korean Peninsula, plus the US missile attacks on Syria.   Kim said, "It has created a dangerous situation in which th

The possibility of Nigeria ending up as a one party state in 2019 has continued to move from speculations to reality with the worsening crisis rocking the main opposition party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). Like a cancerous disease with a single aim to destroy, PDP crisis keeps snowballing into worse situations anytime the party seems to get its acts together to try and fix its problems. The recent intervention of former President Goodluck Jonathan and its effect on the troubled party is a quick example of this. With the efforts already made by Bayelsa State Governor, Seriake Dickson-led reconciliation committee, many Nigerians had thought a political solution to the party’s crisis was in sight when Jonathan summoned the warring factions for a peace meeting. However, the way and manner Ali Modu Sheriff walked out on the stakeholders of the party, his allegation of Jonathan being hired with N50million to destroy likely peace in the pa

In the video, Efe said before he ventured into the Big Brother Naija house, he handed over his social media accounts to his minders who have been updating them with posts daily. The Economics graduate said it would be suicidal for him to block out his fans who have given him all their support at this stage of his career, “I wouldn’t be where I am without you all, so why should I do such a thing”, he stated. Efe used to follow about 2000 of his fans on the social media site but two days ago he un-followed all of them, except five people including 2face

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) faction led by Senator Ahmed Makarfi, has claimed that the N18billion discovered in an apartment in Ikoyi, Lagos, was part of money Transport Minister Rotimi Amaechi allegedly used to sponsor the All Progressives Congress’ (APC’s) 2015 general elections. UK Mail Online had some time ago in an article by Paul Cahalan entitled, “Is Nigerian leader’s pal ‘fantastically corrupt’? Friend of African president accused of stealing £500million,” made reference to accusations against Amaechi, former Rivers State governor, diverting £140million of state funds into Buhari’s presidential campaign. The National Caretaker Committee chairman of the PDP, Makarfi, who had been denounced by a court alleged that the recovered money was part funds Amaechi sponsored APC election with in 2015. He also claimed that the reason government is shying away from revealing the identity of the owner of the money was because undeniable evid
