NNAMDI COLLINS; A 16 YEAR OLD NIGERIAN DEFENDER TRAINING AT BORUSSIA

Angel
Nnamdi Collins, Nigeria-eligible central defender has been called up to Borrusia Dortmund first team as they start preparations for the upcoming season.

 Collins at the age of 16 was among the 31 Dortmund players, including Jadon Sancho, Manuel Akanji and Erling Haaland, that arrived in Bad Ragaz, where they are holding their summer training camp for the tenth time, as informed at the official website of Borussia Dortmund.

Collins wasn't the only youth-teamer named in the traveling squad, with Youssoufa Moukoko, 15,  and Ansgar Knauff, 18, also part of the group.

The Düsseldorf-born youngster took part in Dortmund's first training session on Monday afternoon upon their arrival in Switzerland.

Collins being selected by first team manager Lucien Favre for the pre-season training camp is a testament to the progress he has made in his career over the last one year as he has yet to make his competitive debut for the U19 team.

Last season, the Germany U16 captain scored an impressive 4 goals in 21 appearances in the B-Junioren Bundesliga West.

Collins joined Borussia Dortmund from the youth team of Fortuna Düsseldorf in the summer of 2016.

Cinnamon is a spice used by many different cultures as a seasoning for savory and sweet foods. There are different varieties of cinnamon. A new study suggests that cinnamon might offer a helping hand in fighting against infection. Antibiotics are life-saving drugs which when used properly can fight bacterial infections and save lives by killing bacteria. Streptococcus, E.coli and Staphylococcus are some common infection causing bacteria. Since their first use, antibiotics have saved countless lives. Now, however, the tide is turning. Over countless generations, a growing number of bacterial species have built up resistance to antibiotics. This means that infections that were once easy to treat are now impervious to antibiotics.

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has warned President Muhammadu Buhari and the All Progressives Congress (APC) not to “mistake the rigging in Ekiti as acceptance by Nigerians”. PDP warned that it will not allow such rigging during the 2019 Presidential election. The party said it was “shameful for a President  who claims to be an anti-corruption champion, to glee over acts of electoral corruption that can truncate our democratic process.”  In a statement by its spokesperson, Kola Ologbondiyan, the opposition party said it found as strange that President Buhari could not “condemn the Mutilation of the will of Ekiti people and the stealing of another party’s victory by brute force.” PDP noted the “unsavory statements by the Presidency, celebrating the invasion of Ekiti people as a stamp for President Buhari, wherein it further boasted of a triumph for the President in the 2019 general election.” “Nigeria is too big and too complex to be subjugated by a ...

Ministers Back Robin Swann's Proposal To Remove Covid restrictions

Angel
Image
Northern Ireland, Health Minister Robin Swann has received support from other executive ministers to ease Covid-19 limits. Mr Swann wrote to his ministerial colleagues, seeking their input on how to remove the remaining constraints. Although the executive branch of the government dissolved in February, individual ministers remain in place. They have the authority to make decisions as long as the concerns are not judged "significant or contentious." Government lawyers warned Mr Swann that lowering Covid rules would fall under this category, according to his letter to fellow ministers. According to the attorneys, he won't be able to repeal the guidelines on his own because of Stormont's ministerial code. Because of the joint character of the office, the full executive cannot convene because Paul Givan resigned as first minister, requiring Deputy First Minister Michelle O'Neill to resign as well. Mr Givan's Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) has been protesting the ...

According to a police complaint, the director of the smash superhero picture Black Panther was mistaken for a bank robber while attempting to withdraw money from his own account in the United States. In January, Ryan Coogler was briefly detained after attempting to withdraw $12,000 (£9,100) from an Atlanta bank. After misinterpreting the circumstances, the teller reportedly told her boss she feared an attempted robbery. The "situation should never have happened," Mr. Coogler told TMZ in the United States. Bank of America, on the other hand, has "worked with me and addressed it to my satisfaction, and we have gone on," according to the 35-year-old. According to the police report received by the entertainment website, Mr Coogler presented the teller a withdrawal form with a message requesting $12,000 from his checking account while wearing a covid face mask, sunglasses, and a hat. The note further requested that the money be tallied someplace else, with the phrase ...

Boris Johnson Bets His Reputation On £12 Billion Health-Care Repair

Angel

On Wednesday, MPs will vote to enact a historic £12 billion healthcare levy, raising the tax burden to a post-World War II high as Boris Johnson puts his political career on fixing the country's ailing health and care systems. Johnson readily admitted that the 1.25 percentage point increase in national insurance contributions (NICs) – to be rebadged a health and social care charge – would violate an explicit manifesto commitment when laying out the daring idea for a carved-alone healthcare tax. Downing Street, on the other hand, is betting that framing the proposal as a response to the Covid epidemic, with a focus on reducing the NHS backlog, would persuade voters that it is required. "I'll be very honest with you: this levy will be in violation of our manifesto vow." "A global epidemic, on the other hand, was not in our manifesto," Johnson added. He wouldn't rule out more tax hikes later in the legislature. Labour leader Keir Starmer slammed the ideas a...
