Leicester City are Champions of England

 

Leicester City football club of England have made history by winning the 2015/2016 Barclay Premier League with two matches to spare.

 

The Foxes were crowned champions after Tottenham's 2:2 draw with Chelsea on Monday night.

 

Leicester City who only survived being relegated to the Championship last year surprisingly swept the big teams aside to emerge winners this term.

 

They have garnered 77 points after a 1:1 draw with Manchester United on Sunday but Spurs' inability to win at Stanford Bridge means they are seven points clear and are champions already.

 

The Foxes have been so phenomenal this season with Jermie Vardi and Riyad Mahrez the standout stars.

Wizkid Opens Up About His Affairs With 'Miss Kedike', Chidnma Ekile

 2015, Chidinma known as Miss Kedike admitted that she was finally in love. "Yes there is someone in my life," she simply stated. She has also denied allegations that she was dating the Soundcity presenter, Adams Ibrahim.

“The truth is, most people assume. The public has given me so many boyfriends, and funny enough, I haven’t met some or had a conversation with them. Talking about Adams, he is my friend, we have been friends for a long time and it is normal for people to attach something to it most especially if it’s a relationship with the opposite sex. I have other friends too, like Dammy krane, Flavor himself, to mention but few. However, I have understood that things like this are part of the business and I just have to manage it.
Who doesn’t see Chidinma and have a crush on her? We should be telling Wizkid who has a huge crush on the singer to thread with caution because we are not sure of the intention Flavour has on her. We have always seen the two of them together.

Wizkid didn’t mince words when he spoke about Chidinma when he was a guest artiste on MTV Base
"I’ve had a huge crush on Chidinma for a long time… she doesn’t know it but it’s true. " Wizkid Revealed! Maybe, we should be expecting a collaboration track from them with Wizkid’ revelation of his love for her.

Kenya Building Collapse Hopes fade for survivors - Red Cross

 

Aid workers said hopes were fading of finding more survivors in the rubble of a collapsed building in Kenya's capital on Monday, as the death toll reached 21.

Police said they were questioning the owner of the six-storey residential block that collapsed late on Friday after days of heavy rain and floods, but no one had been charged.

Residents and rescue workers have been sifting through piles of broken concrete at the site in the eastern Huruma suburb ever since, rescuing 135 people, according to the latest police figures.

But conditions were getting more challenging, Kenya Red Cross told Reuters.

"In conditions of no air, dirt, no food, no water, it's very difficult for that person to stay alive," Red Cross official Anthony Mwangi said.

Authorities had condemned the 198-room building and there has been no official explanation of why it remained occupied.

Government critics say corruption is rampant and real estate developers often violate construction codes to minimise costs, with little or no penalties from authorities.

More than 100 refugees die in Libya to Italy weekend shipwrecks

An estimated 113 people died in four shipwrecks between Libya and Italy at the weekend as the crossing becomes the preferred sea route for migrants to Europe, the International Organization for Migration (IOM) said on Tuesday.

With the closing of land routes in the Balkans and a recent deal under which Greece sends migrants back to Turkey, Italian officials have said they expect more people to try to make this longer and much more dangerous crossing from Libya.

In one of four incidents, an Italian merchant ship rescued 26 people off the coast of Libya in rough seas and others were feared missing, Italy's Coast Guard said on Saturday.

IOM, citing survivor testimony, said 84 people appeared to be missing from that wreck, while at least 29 drowned in two other attempted crossings in rubber dinghies of the Channel of Sicily. It was still investigating a fourth incident.

"Just since Friday we know of 4 shipwrecks and 113 people killed, just off Libya," IOM spokesman Joel Millman said.

"It is becoming the preferred route. So therefore we are very mindful of what could be coming in the next few months," Millman told a news briefing.

Migrants from West Africa, especially Nigerians, and the Horn of Africa dominate the Libya-Italy route, which Syrians, Afghans and Iraqis are not taking for now, Millman added.

In all, 1,357 migrants and refugees perished at sea during the first four months of the year, mostly along the Central Mediterranean route, against 1,733 during the period in 2015, the agency said.

Since January, 28,593 migrants and refugees have arrived by sea in Italy, while 154,862 have landed in Greece, the IOM said.

Ex corps member recounts harrowing experience with Fulani herdsmen

The victim identified as Eze Patrick Okechukwu, had reportedly been attacked a few days after he returned from Jigawa State, where he had carried out his one year man­datory national service.

The reports reveal that over 20 people had died in the gruesome attack, leaving a number of their victims, including Okechukwu, bedridden from gunshot and machete wounds.

Sunday Sun reports that Okechukwu who is a graduate of Geology and Mining from the Enugu State University (ESUT) had ben in his father’s house when the assailants had walked into their home with machetes and guns.

The victim had reportedly dashed into a nearby bush but had been followed by the attackers who went on to attack him with swords, cutting his hands, head, and legs, leaving him for dead.

Following a visit by Sunday Sun correspondents at the National Orthopae­dic Hospital, Enugu, where Okechukwu had been referred for treatment, he had been seen lying in pains, with bandages wrapped all over his body while looking frail and helpless.

Speaking during the interview with Sunday Sun, Okechukwu said:

 “It was a horrible experience. I saw the face of death. They cut me like wood and left when they thought I had died.”

Efforts to engage him in further conversation had been futile as talking was visibly painful for him, but his mother and other relatives had gone on to recount the experience.

Speaking to the correspondents, Okechukwu's mother said:

“They almost killed my son. Only God saved him. He was chased into the bush where they overpowered him and descended on him with machetes on his head, hands, legs and back. It was at the same spot that they killed three persons, including a 70-year-old man. They thought my son was dead and left him. Later, my son was rescued and put in a wheelbarrow from the bush to the main road. He was rushed to Nsukka in a pool of blood.”

The reports further reveal that the herdsmen had spared women and children during the attack, as one of the women who had come face to face with the herdsmen revealed to the Sunday Sun that the attackers had ordered her back to her house with the assurance that they would not hurt women and children.

She added that the assailants had been about 15 in number, explaining that about five of them had been herdsmen, while others had looked robust.

A reliable source also reveals that the herdsmen had gone into the premises of St Marys Catholic Church, but upon the discovery that the people found in the church at the time had been mostly women, they had vandalized the windows and other items, leaving the women unharmed
