BRAIN JOTTER TO GIFT MIKE EJEAGHA N2M AFTER GOING VIRAL WITH HIS SONG

After going viral by using the old man’s music, Brain Jotter decided to share his success. He reached out to Influencer, Tunde Ednut to connect with Gentle Man Mike Ejeagha and has 2 million Naira for him.

    CHIDINMA ADETSHINA NAMED ENUGU STATE BRAND AMBASSADOR

    CHIDINMA ADETSHINA NAMED ENUGU STATE BRAND AMBASSADOR Chidimma Adetshina, Miss Universe Nigeria 2024 winner, has been appointed as the brand ambassador of Enugu State. The 23-year-old was named ambassador by the Governor of Enugu State, Peter Mbah, in an X post on Thursday. Her appointment came after a warm homecoming on Tuesday in Enugu, where she was welcomed with banners, traditional performances, and celebrations. The beauty queen has dual citizenship. She was born in South Africa to a Nigerian father from Enugu State and a Mozambique mother who is now a naturalised South African. Adetshina, who faced backlash while participating in the Miss South Africa 2024 competition over her Nigerian heritage, withdrew from the pageant and won the Miss Universe Nigeria title on 30 August. In his statement, Governor Mbah emphasised that her appointment symbolises her resilience and determination–qualities reflective of the Enugu culture and values. He stated, “Today, I appointed Miss Universe Nigeria, Chidimma Onwe Adetshina, as the brand ambassador of Enugu State. Chidimma is an indigene of Amurri, Nkanu West LGA, who embodies the resilience and determination that define Ndi Enugu. Despite numerous challenges, her journey to this remarkable achievement is a testament to the grit and perseverance that we, as Ndi Enugu, are known for. I am incredibly proud to congratulate her on this accomplishment and welcome her back home. “Chidimma’s story will serve as a beacon of hope to our young people, particularly young women. Her influence will undoubtedly inspire others to pursue their dreams, and we look forward to engaging her in programmes that will empower our youths. Our administration’s mission is unwavering commitment to youth development, so we have dedicated 33% of our budget to education. We believe that the true wealth of Enugu lies in our human resources, and Chidimma’s success further strengthens our resolve.” Gratitude In response to her appointment, Adetshina expressed her gratitude in an Instagram post, reflecting on how being invited to represent Nigeria came during a low point in her life. She wrote, “I received the honour of being in the presence of the Governor of Enugu State, Dr Peter Ndubisi Mbah. Upon my homecoming, I was received and appointed as the brand ambassador of Enugu State. I cannot express my gratitude for all the great things I have achieved in my father’s land. Again… Nigeria, Thank you for picking me up when I was on my knees.” Adetshina, a 300-level law student, will represent Nigeria in the Miss Universe 2024 pageant in Mexico this November. Wishing her success, Governor Mbah added, “As she prepares to represent Nigeria and Enugu on the global stage at the Miss Universe 2024 pageant in Mexico, she carries our full support and pride with her. We are confident she will continue to shine as a symbol of excellence and resilience.”

    NEW SUPER EAGLES COACH WAS SACKED BY STUGURT IN 2023, HAS NO NATIONAL COACHING TEAM EXPERIENCE

    NEW SUPER EAGLES COACH WAS SACKED BY STUGURT IN 2023, HAS NO NATIONAL TEAM COACHING EXPERIENCE There are growing concerns in the Nigerian football community over the appointment of Bruno Labbadia as the new Super Eagles coach, given his controversial past and lack of national team coaching experience. SaharaReporters had reported the appointment of the German tactician on Tuesday morning ahead of the Super Eagles’ two 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying matches against Benin Republic on Saturday, September 7th in Uyo and Rwanda on Tuesday, September 10th in Kigali. He becomes the 37th Head Coach of the Super Eagles after Finidi George resigned from his position just four games into his tenure. Findings by SaharaReporters about the managerial stats and experience of the newly appointed coach showed that his appointment fell short of what the Nigerian Football Federation promised the over 200 million citizens after they allowed Jose Peseiro to leave in March. The coach is renowned as a “Sack Specialist” because his records showed that he has been dismissed from several managerial positions throughout his career. The most recent was in 2023 when he was sacked after he almost relegated VfB Stuttgart. The same squad went on to qualify for the Champion League barely one year after the new Super Eagles coach was replaced by Sebastian Hoeneß SaharaReporters has analysed Bruno Labbadia’s coaching career, revealing a mixed record: Total games managed: 487, Wins: 214 (43% win rate), Draws: 103 (21% draw rate) and Losses: 170 (34% lose rate). This means that for every 10 games he played: he won 4.3 games, lost 3.4 games and drew 2.1 games. Labbadia’s coaching record raises questions about his ability to lead the Super Eagles to victory because his record shows he has won fewer matches (in percentage) than José Peseiro who NFF refused to allow to stay despite leading the country to silver in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations in Ivory Coast. Jose Peseiro coached 651 with 317 wins, 153 draws, and 181 losses. His stats show a 48.69 win rate: 5% better than that Bruno Labbadia NFF used to replace him. Despite managing 487 games at the club level, Labbadia has never coached a national team, leaving many to wonder if he has the expertise to lead Nigeria to success on the international stage. National team coaching requires a unique set of skills, including Managing a diverse group of players from different clubs and countries, adapting to different playing styles and opponents and handling high-pressure international matches Labbadia’s inexperience in these areas has raised concerns among Nigerian football fans and pundits, who fear he may struggle to make the transition from club to national team coaching.
