Europa League: Uzoho unable to save Omonia, Ronaldo seals victory for United

Super Eagles goalkeeper Francis Uzoho and his Cypriot club, Omonia Nicosia, have crashed out of the Europa League following a 2-0 defeat to table toppers, Real Sociedad. Uzoho was retained in-between the sticks for Thursday’s encounter after his heroic performance against Manchester United at Old Trafford a fortnight ago. But the goalkeeper was unable to save his troubled club this time as their poor run in the Europa League extended to five games with no point. In the other Group E tie, Cristiano Ronaldo sealed victory for Manchester United as they affirmed their qualification to the next round with a 3-0 victory over Sheriff.

Peter Obi’s campaign lied about dissolution of Next UK

The Labour Party presidential campaign office has reacted with a false claim to a PREMIUM TIMES’ report on the dissolution of Next International (UK) Limited, a company that was owned by the party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi. On Wednesday, PREMIUM TIMES exclusively reported how the company was removed from the UK Companies House register in September 2021 following a first and second gazette notice of a “compulsory” strike off of the entity by authorities in the UK. Our report revealed that Next International (UK) Limited failed to submit its annual accounts for the year 2020, hence, the company was struck off and dissolved in 2021. When the Companies House didn’t receive any reply to its letters, a final gazette to dissolve the entity was issued on 7th September 2021. Running foul of UK lawsBefore its final dissolution, records show that at various times, UK Companies House had to always issue a warning for “compulsory strike-off” before Next International filed its annual report.

Carabao Cup: Super Eagles trio in semi final

Three Super Eagles players have advanced with their teams to the competition’s semifinal stage, continuing the good fortunes of Nigerian players in the League Cup. Aribo’s Southampton did the almost impossible on Wednesday night when they eliminated five-time champion Manchester City from the competition for the seventh time in seven years. Southampton have never won the League Cup, losing the 1979 and 2017 finals, and they will face Newcastle in a two-legged semi-final later in January. They are now back on track to play at Wembley as they reached the League Cup semi-finals for the first time since 1992. Awoniyi and Dennis have to navigate past Manchester United over two legs to make it to the League Cup final before thinking of winning it.
