BATTLE OF WITS:WHO BLINKS FIRST BETWEEN THIS TWO????

The News office Desk of the E.N.M.Paedia Express Multimedia Group of Lagos,Nigeria now hears that several high ranking but retired though not tired Nigerian Armed Forces personnel who are not comfortable with the direction the nation state and ship of Nigeria was drifting are now neck deep in discussions on what to do to avert any form of damage to the national psyche in 2019 after the general elections.
This has become very vital because of the fears being raised in some quarters including this medium that even if President Muhammadu Buhari loses at the ballot box ,The Independent National Electoral Commission[I.N.E.C]may likely smuggle him to power through the back door at all cost like it did recently during the governorship polls in Ekiti State.
It would be recalled that recently at Ado Ekiti,capital of Ekiti State of Nigeria ,a serious drama of events was witnessed  when results that were given out and fully signed out by I.N.E.C to plenty agents was different after final collation from the result released by the same agency announcing Dr Kayode Fayemi as the eventual winner and Governor of the state.
The source who gave this information to this reporter did not however give out then names of the Generals in question at the time of filing.,but analsyst believe that the average Nigerian can read between the lines
This has further fuelled suggestions in several quarters that with the Buhari regime becoming more unpopular especially in the North Central region or the Midlands ,South Western axis,South Eastern Axis and the South -South regions ,the electoral body will resort to falsifying and announcing fake results in collusion with law enforcement agencies so as to aid the incumbent to stay in power at all cost  not minding even if Nigeria goes up in flames as result..

The international Criminal Courts of Justice at The Hague,Netherlands while trying to save its name  and face has tried as at press time to clarify a satire written by The Editorial and Policy Board of the E.N.M.Paedia Express Multimedia Group of Lagos,Nigeria in which the foremost jurists were accused of compromising on ethical standards despite the full knowledge of on-going killings in Northern Nigeria ,herdsmen crisis in the Midlands ,the unexplained disappearance of Nnamdi Kanu and his family by the Federal Government of Nigeria among other begging security questions as at press time.
The body insisted that its invitations of President Muhammadu Buhari of Nigeria as its guest and key note speaker at its recently held 20 th year anniversary at The Hague,Netherlands should not be equated to that of an endorsement of the latter's political ambition.
The News office Desk of the E.N.M.Paedia Express Multimedia Group of Lagos,Nigeria while cross examining a cross section of members of the Nigerian public on the highly vexing matter was told by Nigerians that they were all left very stunned by I.C.C.'s show of insensitivity to the plight of suffering Nigerians who were victims of Boko Haram's killer squad or Fulani Herdsmen sword  strikes .
They also rapped the I.C.C  for turning the blind eye  to several cases of incessant land grabbing, vandalization of public properties and killings by the Herdsmen.
Most Nigerians also took exceptions to efforts being made by the Buhari regime to embark on a forceful image laundering campaign viz-a-viz ,his emergence as The Chairman of the Economic Community of West African State[E.C.O.W.A.S],saying that even a suckling infant knew that Nigeria virtually owned the agency and that there was nothing special about her producing its chairman anymore as several Nigerians had chaired it before.
Nigerian also added that  E.C.O.W.A.S. was an indirect Federal Government of Nigeria's public sector based parastatal and therefore the entire nation should disregard the mileage and consider it as an effort to hoodwink rather than the true reality of things on ground.
A Federal legislator: Abdulmumini Jubrin recently stoked fire when he went viral with insinuations that Buhari was endorsed by the International Criminal Courts of Justice thus leading to his invitations for there 20 years fiesta
But ICC spokesperson, Fadi El Abdallah in an email exchange via the Public Affairs unit of the court  with a section of the press seeks to explain :“The International Criminal Court (“ICC” or the “Court”) is not involved in any integrity or background check of world leaders,” 
He added that it has been standard practice for the ICC to invite Heads of State one at a time for certain high-level events, such as anniversary commemorations but also the opening of the judicial year, adding that “this is because of logistical and protocol reasons involved in hosting dignitaries at that level”.
He also disclosed that other heads of state have been invited and have participated in high level events organised by the Court in the past, stressing that President Buhari was invited as keynote speaker for the commemorations of the 20th anniversary.
El Abdallah said President Buhari was not the only leader invited to the event but that ‘Nigeria was the only State represented by its President’.  He added that more than 30 other States were represented at the level of national Senates and Parliaments chiefs, as well as Ministers of Foreign Affairs and Justice.
The presidency declined to confirm or refute the claim.  
‘Ask the man who told you,’ the spokesman of the president, Femi Adesina said. 
We have reached out to Jibrin to clarify his claim and tell us his source but no response yet.

Finally Nigerian Football Forward and International Ahmed Musa has departed the shores of England where he was plying his trade with the Leicester City Football Club of England in the tough Premier League for the oil rich Gulf nation,Saudi Arabia where he will be turning in for the next four years for giants: Al Nassr Football Club of Riyadh,Saudi Arabia.
In a recent expose by The News office Desk of the E.N.M.Paedia Express Multimedia Group of Lagos, Nigeria, it was revealed exclusively that the Football wizard has over 100 strikes as professional footballer.
Al Nassr has at least seven players of foreign extraction aside from an  expatriate coach in charge of the technical details of the team from Riyadh
It is believed the deal went for as much as 25 million pounds sterling..
Al-Nassr is the Arabic word for "victory". Clubs with the same name are found in Oman, Kuwait, Bahrain, UAE and Libya but the Saudi Arabian club was the first to take the name.

New Crest
The club's logo represents the map of Arabia with yellow and blue colors. Yellow for the gorgeous sand of the Arabian deserts, and blue for the magnificent water in the Arabian Sea, the Persian Gulf and the Red Sea surrounding the Arabian Peninsula. Recently the old logo has been replaced by a "more modern version", but still is heavily influenced by the old club logo. The new logo only represents the football team while the old logo represents the club as a whole.
Sponsorship
Since the start of the 2013/2014 season, Al-Nassr lacked any sponsors. Yet, still managed to pull through with a double, by winning the Crown Prince's cup, as well as finishing first in the SPL. In the 2014/2015 season, Al-Nassr managed to land on multiple sponsors, including electronic manufacturer UGINE, and telecom giants Mobily for a developing partnership that spans for almost 5 years, beginning with a small advert on the team's jerseys, all for an undisclosed fee nearing $32,000,000 dollars a year.[6][7]

Honours
Al-Nassr have won a combined total of 24 national trophies as well as 8 regional and various friendly tournaments. The club holds various domestic and international records.[8] The club is recognized by FIFA as the first Asian club to play on an international level, as well as the first club in the world to win the FIFA Fair Play Award in the FIFA Club World Cup.[9][10] On a continental level, Al-Nassr appeared on 4 Asian finals, with two victories, and two times as runners-up.[11][12][13]

The nickname "The International Club" was obtained following their respective participation in the Club World Cup.
