Harry Kane might have won the Ballon d'Or but Bukayo Saka was the night's star.
His Socrates award speech was awe-inspiring and spiritually edifying.
It was good to see his many good deeds finally getting some recognition.
Bukayo Saka is a good lad with a heart of gold.
Uganda has clarified that she has no active Ebola case.
Uganda insisted that Nigeria's index case did not get infected in Uganda as she was only transiting through after visiting DR Congo.
Uganda does not want to blamed by over 200 million Nigeriansfort an Ebola scourge.
Happy birthday to a living legend. The life captain of the Super Eagles of Nigeria.
The beliver in dreams and talents.
The son of the woman who once called me her son.
The epitome of humility.
The President.
The Leader.
The Icon.

In Jorge Jesus' eagerness to "embarrass" CR7, he hurriedly handed the #7 jersey to Leao the smiling underachiever. Joao Felix would have been a better pick.
Don't you think so?

EPIC FIVE-SET THRILLER! Nigeriaβs Volleyball Giants Slay Algeria
It was not a match; it was a five-act opera of grit, power, and unyielding belief.
In a collision that will be remembered for generations, the Nigerian Senior Male Volleyball Team etched their names in gold, emerging from a five-set desert war with Algeria as champions. The graphic said "FT 3-2," but the story beneath those numbers is one of cinematic drama.
This was a championship match of giants. Nigeria, fresh from a dominant 3-set sweep of Chad, met the desert storm of Algeria, and the court was scorched.
THE PROLOGUE: A NATIONβS PRIDE
Building on the foundation of their perfect execution yesterday against Chad, where they did not yield a single set, Nigeria entered this match with a nationβs hopes resting on their broad shoulders.
ACT I: THE SHOCKING SETBACK (S1: Nigeria 23 - Algeria 25)
The match ignited with immediate intensity. Set 1 was a masterclass in counter-attacking volleyball. Points were traded like hammer blows. Yet, with a surgical block at the very end, Algeria snatched the set 25-23, silencing the Nigerian faithful and testing the fortitude of the Eagles.
ACT II: THE RESURGENCE (S2: Nigeria 25 - Algeria 19)
Nigeria refused to fold. The pride of Naija responded with a devastating display of attacking prowess. They took the second set by storm, winning 25-19, leveling the tie, and signaling that this war was far from over.
ACT III: THE BATTLE OF WILLS (S3: Nigeria 21 - Algeria 25)
The pattern emerged: this was a back-and-forth epic. In Set 3, Algeria found their rhythm again, their defense proving almost impossible to breach. Nigeria fought tooth and nail, clawing for every ball, but dropped the set 21-25. Suddenly, Nigeria faced the abyss. One more set from Algeria, and the match was gone.
ACT IV: THE MIRACLE OF RESISTANCE (S4: Nigeria 25 - Algeria 20)
This was the defining moment. Facing match point, the Nigerian team found an extra gear of desire. Their blocking became a wall, their spikes a laser storm. They forced errors, they executed under maximum pressure, and they dominated Set 4, winning 25-20. The match was pushed to the ultimate test: a decisive fifth set. The arena held its breath.
ACT V: THE CLIMAX β CROWNING THE KINGS (S5: Nigeria 15 - Algeria 12)
In the fifth set, where pressure turns to madness, legends are made. Nigeria began with an ace, an explosive block, and a thunderous spike, taking an early 3-0 lead. Algeria fought back, but the momentum was now an unstoppable green and white force.
At 14-12, match point, the final point was a sequence for the history books: a dig, a perfect set, and an unstoppable cross-court spike that seemed to halt time. The ball hit the floor, and a nation erupted.
Nigeria had defeated Chad in straight sets, but they had to go through hell to defeat Algeria. They won 3-2. The final scores read (23-25, 25-19, 21-25, 25-20, 15-12).
This is more than a win. This is a testament to resilience. After the victory, Coach Ryan Masajedi said, "This team never knows when they are beaten. We learned yesterday, and we proved today that Nigerian volleyball belongs at the very top."
Tonight, Nigeria celebrates. Their volleyball warriors have proven they are not just contenders; they are beaters too.

Today, I am simply grateful to God for the gift of life. Things may be extremely difficult, but His mercies continue to speak for me. I never imagined I would grow to this age, yet here I amβstanding by grace. I am deeply thankful for my family, their love, prayers and presence. I face the next chapters with plump optimism, faith and hope.
Can a bird and a fish truly build a life together? π¦πβ€οΈ
Sometimes love is real, the connection is strong, but the differences become too difficult to ignore. A Bird And A Fish is a story about two people who care for each otherβbut are slowly discovering that they may want completely different things from life.
I created this song with AI, and Iβd love to know what you think. πΆ
Can love survive when two people are simply too different?
