Touted to be a future star, the 18-year-old has featured six times for Santos since joining them as a ten-year-old in 2012. One of the brightest prospects from South America, Jorge, dubbed as the next Cristiano Ronaldo. put in eye-catching displays for his national side Brazil in the 2019 FIFA U-17 World Cup.

George Floyd: Minneapolis council pledges to dismantle police department

Image
A majority of Minneapolis City Council has pledged to dismantle the local police department, a significant move amid nationwide protests sparked by George Floyd's death last month. Nine of the 13 councillors said a "new model of public safety" would be created in a city where law enforcement has been accused of racism. Mayor Jacob Frey earlier opposed the move, drawing boos from the crowds. Anti-racism rallies have been held after Floyd's death in police custody. However, security measures across the country were lifted on Sunday as unrest started to ease. Mr Floyd's funeral is scheduled for Tuesday in Houston, his home city before he moved to Minneapolis. The protests started after video emerged showing the 46-year-old African American pinned to the floor, with a white police officer kneeling on his neck for almost nine minutes. Officer Derek Chauvin has been dismissed and charged with murder. Three other officers who were at the scene have also been sacked

Postmasters Were Prosecuted Using Unreliable Evidence

Image
The Post Office prosecuted postmasters over missing money despite having evidence its own computer system could be to blame. Hundreds were accused after the Horizon system showed cash shortfalls at their branches. But a BBC Panorama investigation has revealed managers knew problems with Horizon could make money disappear. The Post Office says its new leadership has made changes and is working closely with postmasters to provide support. Postmasters up and down the country were held responsible for missing money because they supposedly had sole control of their Horizon accounts. It led to many being fired, going bankrupt or even sent to prison. But senior Post Office managers were told back in 2011 that computer technicians also had access to the system and could change postmasters' data. An Ernst and Young audit report, which was sent to Post Office directors, says it "has again identified weaknesses" in the Horizon system. It warns that some IT staff have "u

Coronavirus: UK travel Quarantine Rules Come Into Effect

Image
New rules requiring all people arriving in the UK to self-isolate for 14 days have come into effect. Those arriving by plane, ferry or train - including UK nationals - will have to provide an address where they will self-isolate and face fines of up to £1,000 if they do not follow the rules. Home Secretary Priti Patel said the laws are designed "to prevent a second wave" of coronavirus. But some industries have warned they will be severely impacted by the rules. Anyone arriving from the Republic of Ireland, the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man does not have to complete the form or enter quarantine. There are also exemptions for workers in some industries such as road haulage and medical professionals who are providing essential care. All other travellers have to fill in a "public health passenger locator" form on arrival. Failure to do so could lead to a penalty of £100, or travellers may be refused entry. If they are unable to provide an address, the gover

 5 Things We Learned From Arsenal Friendly V's Charlton

Image
Arsenal faced Charlton Athletic in a friendly match on Saturday, and we can learn a lot even from the limited public information on the match. After we cover the obvious details of the match like  the goals  and  who still isn’t fit , there’s still more we can glean from the pictures, videos and highlights Arsenal put up. Let’s have a look at five things we noticed: 1. Tierney looks like the first-choice left-back LONDON, ENGLAND: Kieran Tierney Mikel Arteta played  two different sides  in the two halves against Charlton. The first-half looked a lot like the first-choice team, with Leno in goal, Bellerin and Luiz in defence, Özil, Aubameyang and Lacazette in forward areas, and so on. What’s interesting is that Tierney also made the team. The Scottish international hasn’t played under Arteta so far, so we had no way of measuring whether he’d usurp Sead Kolasinac and Bukayo Saka. The early signs look positive for him, though. Even if the first-half team wasn’t all first-choice pla

We Have Uncovered Plots By Nnamdi Kanu, IPOB To Set Nigeria Against US, UK, Others – Presidency

Image
The Presidency on Sunday said it has uncovered an ongoing plot by the Nnamdi Kanu-led Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB to set the country against some of its allies such as the US, UK and the European Union.The Presidency said this while alerting Nigerians and the international community of the move it described as a most misleading campaign wherein the group uses false allegations of persecution of Christians against the Nigerian State. The Presidency said this in a statement signed by the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu and made available to DAILY POST on Sunday. It claimed that a very deep and wide investigation carried out by one of the agencies of the Nigerian government, working with international partners, has drawn its attention to two interconnected campaigns being concurrently run by the pro-Biafra group. The statement said that “Both [campaigns] are using the cover of Christianity – and calling for a US Special Envoy to be

Coronavirus pandemic: Tracking The Global Outbreak

Coronavirus: Hundreds Of Polish Infections Linked to Mine

Image
A single coal mine in Poland's Upper Silesia region is behind a record spike in the country's confirmed coronavirus cases, the health ministry says. Over the weekend 1,151 new infections were recorded nationally. An outbreak among miners and their families at the Zofiowka colliery in southern Poland accounted for two-thirds of that figure. The global number of deaths from coronavirus has now passed 400,000. There have been 6.9 million infections. Poland introduced a strict lockdown early in March, and has avoided the comparatively large number of deaths seen in Western Europe. In Poland, 1,157 people have died from Covid-19 and 26,561 have been infected but the stubborn persistence of cases in Upper Silesia mean the country has not passed its peak. Most EU countries recorded fewer new cases than Poland on Sunday. Upper Silesia is Poland's industrial heartland with more than a dozen active mines where workers toil in humid conditions at close quarters. More than 4,00

KOUL STORY BRO

Napoli are insisting on receiving their £100million asking price in full if they are to sell Kalidou Koulibaly this summer. That represents a huge blow to suitors Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal. Napoli's sporting director Cristiano Giuntoli said: "Kalidou is a great player, who still has a long contract with us. "If we were to sell, the club could ask for a large sum. "A player like this cannot change his value even in a crisis, so we are not moving our valuation.” source: www.jsportnewsgh.com

Jurgen Klopp could not morally justify Liverpool splashing out on Timo Werner. The champions-elect had looked nailed on to sign the RB Leipzig striker, who is now set to join Chelsea for £54million. But boss Klopp said: “All clubs are losing money. “How do I discuss with the players about things like salary waivers and on the other hand buy a  player for £50-60m — we’d have to explain.” source: www.jsportnewsgh.com

EXCLUSIVE BY ANDREW DILLON

Chelsea are sweating on winger Pedro signing a temporary deal to help the club through Project Restart. The vastly experienced Spaniard has agreed to stay on at the club for the remaining nine Premier League games once his contract expires at the end of this month. But veteran Pedro, 32, is holding out on putting pen to paper in solidarity with team-mate Willian who will also become a free agent from July 1. A Blues source said: “Pedro is ready to play on. He knows he is pretty much certain of leaving Chelsea at the end of this season. “He wants to do the right thing by the club too after a long time there and see the season out. But equally, he does not want to be the first one who signs before his pals have done the same. “And Willian’s situation is a bit different to his own. Willian is open to staying on at Stamford Bridge. Pedro is not keen to ‘break ranks’ and go it alone.” source: www.jsportnewsgh.com

Marines Order Confederate Flags Removed in Ban That Includes Bumper Stickers And Clothing

Image
The U.S. Marine Corps on Friday ordered all public displays of the Confederate flag removed, a ban that extends to bumper stickers, clothing, mugs, posters and more. The order directs Marine Corps commanders to find and remove displays of the flag in "work places, common-access areas, and public areas" on base. "The Confederate battle flag has all too often been co-opted by violent extremist and racist groups whose divisive beliefs have no place in our Corps," a notice posted by the U.S. Marines on Twitter says. Exceptions to the order include state flags that include the Confederate flag and Confederate soldiers' gravesites. Individual barracks, living quarters and private vehicles will not be inspected, the order says. In April, top Marine Gen. David Berger banned the display of the Confederate flag and other such symbols. The Marines' Friday announcement formalizes that ban. It's a position that no other military branch has yet taken, Military.c

FC Barcelona Plans to Have A Negotiation with Real Madrid Target In The Coming Weeks.

Image
FC Barcelona has been negotiating for the transfer of  Lautaro Martinez  from Inter Milan. However, the negotiations are currently under halt because Inter Milan has made their intentions clear.  The Italian side has said that they are not backing off from the 111 million euros release clause of Lautaro Martinez. Meanwhile, Barcelona is in no position to pay that big amount currently, due to the shortage of funds. So, the deal for Lautaro Martinez looks very unlikely as of now because of the high release clause of the player. As reports say, the Blaugranas have turned their attention to another striking option from the Bundesliga. Barcelona had a remarkable opportunity to sign Erling Haaland from RB Salzburg in this winter transfer window. However, Barca rejected the opportunity and Borussia Dortmund bought him for just 18 million pounds. The main reason why Barcelona did not go for Haaland was his agent Mino Raiola. Barca shares a strained relationship with the high profile ag

Barcelona, Juventus Agree Player Exchange Deal

Image
Barcelona and Juventus have reportedly agreed on a player exchange but there is still a major issue before a deal can be done between the two giants. With Serie A and La Liga both set to restart this month, the title-chasers will have more immediate concerns to consider on the pitch in the coming months as they look to enjoy a successful end to the current campaign. However, speculation continues to suggest that they could do business together this summer, as Calciomercato report via Tuttosport, that they have agreed on an exchange involving Miralem Pjanic and Arthur, while Mattia De Sciglio could also be included in the deal. It’s added that while the clubs are in total agreement and the two Juventus players have given their approval to the switch, Arthur has not given the green light to leaving the Camp Nou as part of the exchange. That said, Tuttosport add that the expectation is that he will eventually accept it, but time will tell if that’s the reality or not as the 23-year-

Obinim Was Better Footballer Then Me Stephen Oduro Reveals

Kumasi Asante Kotoko legend has revealed that head of International Godsway Church, Prophet “Angel” Daniel Obinim is a naturally gifted footballer. Oduro who is one of the best players the local league has seen over the past two decades pointed out that the man of God was a better footballer than him when they were all growing up in the same house. “I was born at Akwatia Line, the same house as Bishop Daniel Obinim who is a man of God today. He was our next-door neighbor and other guys but he (Obinim) was really a good footballer but I don’t know why he quit football but he was so good at playing,” Oduro told Kumasi Nyame “Obinim was a better player than I was so anytime we play I wanted to be part of his team else I won’t play because if I go the opposite side they will score us” Oduro is currently residing in US after retiring from football whilst Obinim is among the renowned men of God in Ghana who always sparks controversies.

I Was 13 Years When My Sister's Husband Started Raping Me

A Facebook user, Mrs Chinwe Udeze Patricia has narrated how her sister's husband started sleeping with her, after was taking away from her mother by her sister. She said her sister came to meet her mum heavily pregnant with three kids and told her mum that she is unable to do house chores and that she should come and stay with her and also assist her in doing some works. Initially, her mum doesn't want her to go, because she knew she won't treat her well, but due to the fact that she was young and never been to Lagos before, she was too happy and persuaded her mum to allow her follow her sister. After she followed her to Lagos, her sister told her never to interact with her mum in Igbo dialect so that she won't be able to report her abuse, as her mum is from Edo but married to an Igbo man. As time goes on, she was been accused of stealing milk, tea and other food stuffs in the house. Due to this, her sister will strip her in front of her husband and ser

Sulley Muntari And Wakso Break Social Distance Rule As They Hang Out In Town

The Friendship bond between Wakaso, Fatau and Sulley Muntari is growing stronger day by day as they were seen at a coded Joint hanging out. These three have been seen more times together after the Coronavirus hit the whole world. Couple of pictures from Training emerged online few days ago This confirmed our assumptions that their friendship is growing. But even though footballers are not allowed to play football, they are still trying to keep in shape as best as they can and the same goes for Mubarak Wakaso and former Ghana international Sulley Muntari. Though they're both known to be Muslims, one is likely to believe that it's their religious affiliations that's making them tight paddies. They're among the greatest footballers in the Country. Wakaso sees Sulley Muntari as his Senior brother and player. They were seen at an unidentified place enjoying coconut, it looks like they're not really bothered about the COVID-19 Social Distancing Rules a

Again! Yaa Jackson Disgraces Herself On Live Radio After She Was Asked The Course She Studied At The SHS [VIDEO]

After listening to the interview Ghanaian actress-cum-songstress  Yaa Jackson  granted  Andy Dosty  earlier this morning on Hitz FM, I have been wondering what she ate or was told before she went for the interview. Aside from being very elusive when she was asked simple questions she could have answered easily to make the interview an interesting one, she decided to disgrace herself again. Somewhere in February 2019,  Yaa Jackson  became a huge topic of discussion on  Peace FM  after she goofed when she tried to give the full meaning of CRS, a subject she claimed to have studied at the SHS. Whereas the abbreviation translates to mean ‘Christian Religious Studies’, the  born again singer  stated ‘Christian Religious Service’. Apparently she did not pick any lessons from that interview because on  Hitz FM  this morning, she could not mention the course she studied at the SHS after she was asked that simple question. source: www.jsportnewsgh.com

Popular eSports gamer Ibai Llanos, who boasts 1.6million Twitter followers, hit the headlines when he met  Messi  at an Adidas event last year and cracked under the pressure of meeting arguably the world’s greatest ever footballer. Footage of the meeting went viral as Llanos shook Messi’s hand and posed for a quick photo before instantly walking off and leaving the  Barcelona  superstar alone when they had been meant to share the stage. “I don’t know what the hell I’ve done that seems to ignore him when I greet him because of the shame he was giving me, I’m freaking out Messi thought he was drunk,” he wrote on Twitter at the time. Lionel Messi sent Sergio Aguero a WhatsApp audio message that was played live on air The issue was raised as Messi’s Argentina team-mate Sergio Aguero appeared in Llanos’ show this weekend.

Chelsea FC appeared to have finally captured the German forward ,the deal is set to be sealed by next week. Leipzig CEO Oliver MintKlaff has denied the report linking the striker to the west london side as he stated the player is currently focused with the German club. Transfer Window is not on ,so therefore the deal is only likely to be agreed between the two clubs then when this current season is over, Chelsea FC will appropriately secure his service. Frank Lampard looks to take Europe by Storm Next season. As he will be having a more attacking threat other than this current season. The front three will consist of Pulisic,Werner and Ziyech. However it is certain Pedro Rodriguez will be leaving at the end of season, his shirts will be available for Werner because Werner is wearing the shirt 11 currently at Leipzig. It's sure Chelsea will also keeps the tempo and gives it to him. The shirt 11 has been worn by past blues players who loves to score (Drogba,Oscar and now Pedro)
