"Sorry guys, it wasn't planned that way…." Mesut Ozil apologises to Arsenal fans.
Only Arsenal fans please! If you’re not one, you’re not permitted to read this. So, if you have still not forgiven Gunners’ midfielder, Mesut Ozil for missing that crucial penalty during last night’s UEfA Champions League game against Bayern, he has a message for you. He wants you to know that he’s not happy either.
“The next morning doesn’t feel better either. Sorry guys – it wasn’t planned that way. Outnumbered it was really hard to win against this team.” He wrote on his facebook page.
Arsenal boss, Arsene Wenger even admitted that the 25 year-old’s confidence drained and performed dismally after he failed to find the net. “Ozil’s head dropped and he was affected by it. He wanted to do so well tonight and it affected him. He was still shaking his head five or 10 minutes after that. It had a huge impact on his performance. Confidence is your petrol in the team – it gives you the desire to play.”
Meanwhile former German captain, Michael Ballack who spoke before the match observed that there is a disconnect between the German player and the rest of his team-mates. “He looks a bit lost in this team. When he came here there was so much expectation with the quality he has. The first games he looked good, played well and was comfortable. With his quality he should be untouchable and bring out so much in the team. But it looks like he has not the acceptance of the team.”

President Goodluck Jonathan suspends CBN Governor, Sanusi Lamido, appoints new acting Governor
OFFICIAL STATEMENT
“Having taken special notice of reports of the Financial Reporting Council of Nigeria and other investigating bodies, which indicate clearly that Mallam Sanusi Lamido Sanusi’s tenure has been characterized by various acts of financial recklessness and misconduct which are inconsistent with the administration’s vision of a Central Bank propelled by the core values of focused economic management, prudence, transparency and financial discipline; Being also deeply concerned about far-reaching irregularities under Mallam Sanusi’s watch which have distracted the Central Bank away from the pursuit and achievement of its statutory mandate; and
Being determined to urgently re-position the Central Bank of Nigeria for greater efficiency, respect for due process and accountability, President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan has ordered the immediate suspension of Mallam Sanusi Lamido Sanusi from the Office of Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria. President Jonathan has further ordered that Mallam Sanusi should hand over to the most senior Deputy Governor of the CBN, Dr Sarah Alade who will serve as Acting Governor until the conclusion of on-going investigations into breaches of enabling laws, due process and mandate of the CBN.
The President expects that as Acting Governor of the Central Bank, Dr. Alade will focus on the core mandate of the Bank and conduct its affairs with greater professionalism, prudence and propriety to restore domestic and international confidence in the country’s apex bank. The Federal Government of Nigeria reassures all stakeholders in Nigeria’s financial and monetary system that this decision has been taken in absolute good faith, in the overall interest of the Nigerian economy and in accordance with our laws and due process.

Opinion: Tiwa Savage on violating traffic law and assaulting a police officer. | By: Oye Ajakaiye
I was at a friends house in Lekki when I noticed a bbm update about Tiwa Savage being arrested for some strange reasons. I became furious and out of curiosity, questioned the update and to my surprise, my friend informed me Tiwa violated traffic rule and even removed a policeman’s cap.
At this point I became more furious and embarrassed at this shameful, hideous behaviour. The first question that crossed my mind was “What is wrong with human beings? Isn’t Tiwa Savage one of our “celebrities”, role model and ambassador to other Nigerian citizens? Considering she’s an “Ambassador” for a couple of brands, I’m wondering if she knows what the term “Ambassador” stands for. However, I am certain some of us don’t think a lot should be expected taking account of the fact she’s not an ambassador for Nigeria but on the other hand, whichever brand she represents is a Nigerian Brand and domiciled in Nigeria which makes Tiwa a strong representative of the Nigerian community.
Quite frankly, What exactly are we celebrating? I love Tiwa Savage, she has an amazing voice but I honestly think she should be punished! Even if its some by doing some form of community task in order to pay for that uncultured, obnoxious act. Not by bribing her way out of the situation or by seeking help from top people in the country. She should also openly apologise to the Policeman in question and the people of Nigeria. (To whom much is given, much is expected.) I’ve seen the Governor of Lagos State comply with traffic rule and I was highly impressed, how much more Tiwa Savage? We all complain about our government officials and our leaders but this disgraceful act explains a lot about what and how we celebrate in Nigeria.
My piece isn’t a source for fame, it’s not my craving. I’m writing this as a Nigerian Youth who is concerned about the wellbeing of my fellow youths and growth of this country. Honestly speaking, we are the leaders of tomorrow and we all stand to benefit by doing things the right way. I love you Tiwa Savage, I’m a great Fan but You should exhibit traits of a good Role Model for the youths that look up to you.

“The federal government and indeed all Nigerians appreciate and we need to encourage you to go to Brazil. The federal Government is going to give you a token but I will personally consult with the senior boys to add something to that. The federal government is going to start it with the sum of N50 million. But I am hopeful that by the time I will talk to
some of our senior boys, I think the money may even double” he stated.
