Incredible! An Italian town where a baby is born,first time in 28years!

Since the 1980s, the Italian town of Ostana had not seen the birth of a single baby. But last week, a dream came true, as the mayor of the small town said. A baby was born. The first in 28 years. According to La Stampa, the town has only 85 inhabitants, including newborn Pablo. Its population has continuously fallen -- a fate shared by many other Italian towns and villages. "The real decline started in 1975, with 17 babies between 1976 and 1987, when the last boy was born - until little Pablo," Mayor Giacomo Lombardo was quoted as saying. A party will be held to celebrate what he hopes will be the start of a reversal of that trend. But the population decline will be hard to stop, no matter what ideas Lombardo comes up with. Younger Italians in particular say there are few attractive job prospects in rural areas. Many have moved to cities, leaving their hometowns to the elderly. Ostana, which is in northern Italy, has only one shop, a bar and two restaurants, according to the Italian news site the Local. Some parts of northern Italy have been hit harder than others. But the south, including the island of Sicily, has faced more dramatic demographic changes in recent decades. The arrival of baby Pablo has certainly been welcomed in Ostana, according to the mayor. "It's great to finally have someone born here, and it shows that our efforts to reverse population decline are slowly working," Lombardo was quoted as saying. Lombardo has tried to create jobs in order to prevent other young people from leaving the town. Pablo might be the first indication that his strategy is working. His parents wanted to move away several years ago but stayed after they were offered the opportunity to work at a mountain refuge. Source: Washington Post

Guardiola's no coward: Why Man City gamble makes perfect sense

Some say the man who built the best team in history, a man with two Champions Leagues to his name, is still unproven, and that his move to City is the easy option - they are wrongThe suggestion that Pep Guardiola only takes the easy option, and that in choosing Manchester City he has done so once again, should be disregarded immediately as nonsense. It is simply not true, and for many reasons. First of all, he is supposed to have inherited a great Barcelona team that was apparently destined to be successful no matter who was in charge. He already had Lionel Messi, Xavi, Andres Iniesta, Thierry Henry, Carles Puyol and Samuel Eto'o, they say, and that selling Ronaldinho, still one of the world's best, to make Messi the main man was an obvious decision. That can only be put down to some kind of perverse revisionism. This was Guardiola's first job in senior management; had he not been anything other than an extraodinary coach and a great motivator, would these very players - talented, iconic and stubborn, as Pep's detractors acknowledge - have respected him and responded to his ideas? Ideas which were, are and continue to be, extremely demanding? He would not have lasted a season had he been the chancer that some are suggesting, much less gone on to mould what is probably the best football team in history, one that set tactical trends that countless top clubs now follow.

Return Stolen Funds Or Be Arrested – Efcc Warns Looters

As looters of the public funds are being currently fished out across the country by the Economic and Finance Crime Commission (EFCC), the anti-craft commission has warned all looters of the public funds to return the looted funds or be arrested by the commission. Wilson Uwajaren who is the commission’s spokesperson gave the warning over the weekend during a programme titled, “The state of the nation” on Channels Television. According to him, any suspect whose name was brought to the light of the commission, such person would be apprehended and investigated and if eventually found guilty of the alleged offence, would undoubtedly face the fullest wrath of justice. “We are calling on those who have stolen public funds to return the looted money or be arrested. Ours is once you bring back the money, we have no problem with you. We can only arrest you if you refuse to return the money,“ he said. Culled from 247nigeriannewsupdate.com

BUSTED: CATALAN POLICE ENDS EIYE CONFRATERNITY, SEX-TRAFFICKING IN SPAIN

Catalan Police have busted a sex-trafficking group in Spain known as the Supreme Eiye Confraternity (SEC), or the Air Lords following a raid on their residential building. BBC’s Sam Piranty was given access by the Catalan police, Mossos D’Esquadra, to an investigation into a Nigerian sex-trafficking gang. He spoke to traffickers and women rescued from sexual slavery before filming an early morning raid in November, which led to 23 arrests. He also discovered that the gang is now using London as a gateway into Europe. It’s 08:00 in the Catalan Police Headquarters on the outskirts of Barcelona and Xavi Cortes, head of the anti-trafficking unit, waits patiently for his 22 teams to confirm they are in position. Finally, he gives the order. Two-hundred-and-fifty officers quietly climb out of their police vans. Single file, each team approaches a residential building watched by a few surprised neighbours. On reaching the door, one of the masked police officers uses his fingers to count down. Three, two, one. The door is knocked down, the silence shattered, the officers rush inside. The raid results in the arrest of the leaders of a Nigerian-based group running an international sex-trafficking ring in Barcelona. It’s known as the Supreme Eiye Confraternity (SEC), or the Air Lords, and 23 people are now behind bars, with European Arrest Warrants issued for those who have left the country. This operation was 18 months in the planning and involved monitoring more than a million phone calls, tapping dozens of mobile phones and months of surveillance.

”You know, one of the tappings showed us that last year, on 7 July, around 400 members of SEC met in Geneva. They had a big meeting, all together.” Xavi Cortes, Catalan police says Eiye Confraternity uses forged documents and passports from Nigeria to fly into places like Gatwick – these need co-operation of people working in the government It was an audacious display of arrogance. In a city where many of the world’s global institutions are headquartered, including numerous UN agencies, a global criminal institution held its own parallel international gathering and no-one tried to stop it. Benin City, Nigeria, is a human-trafficking hub, and a good place to observe how the criminal operation works. After long negotiations, our team manages to speak to a recruiter, whose job it is to find girls. The recruiter explains that they either approach girls directly or through their families offering fake jobs abroad in a supermarket, or as a cleaner. However, not everyone is tricked. Many women approach the recruiters themselves, often in full knowledge that they will be working as a prostitute in Europe. Some parents, also aware of this, approach recruiters on behalf of their children. Source:BBC

NFF Officials engage in a brawl....

The meeting called yesterday by the Minister of Youth and Sports, Barr. Solomon Dalung had all the trappings of reopening the already settled leadership crisis in the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF). It took a dangerous turn when the NFF President, Amaju Pinnick and Chris Giwa who is laying claim to the same office almost engaged each other in fisticuffs. Pinnick and his greatest challenger, Giwa were locked in a battle for the soul of the NFF after the election in Warri, Delta State on September 30, 2014 which produced the present board. The Confederation of African Football and FIFA have both recognised the Amaju Pinnick-led board. Giwa lost his case both in Fifa and the Court of Arbitration for Sports, CAS. And this was after he had withdrawn his case from a Jos court when Fifa moved to ban Nigeria. For more than one year peace reigned in Nigerian football and the meeting the minister called was generally condemned by football stakeholders who said the action was tantamount to waking up a dead horse which could trigger off another bad blood. Giwa was laying claim to the NFF top seat, saying he was duly elected after the August 26, 2014 controversial election in Abuja in which delegates massively boycotted. Dalung, a known friend of Giwa back home from Plateau State who just assumed office late last year seemingly reopened the case and initiated an unnecessary peace move that turned out an anti-climax. between the two warring factions. During the meeting, tempers rose, resulting in altercations from both men who called each other unprintable names. But for the intervention of Dalung who sat in between the two angry men, the situation would have resulted in the two men using their fists as they wanted. However, after the fracas which lasted for about five minutes, the meeting continued. After long hours of deliberation, the meeting was deadlocked. The Minister told reporters that the meeting will reconvene next week Wednesday. He asked both parties to maintain the peace and that he will try to resolve the problem in the interest of football and the country. According to him, the meeting has given him the opportunity to hear from both parties.On what FIFA would do if the crisis persists, Dalung said he knows that the world body rules over the game adding that they will also be interested to see that the right thing was done. “I have the will power and the political power to resolve the issue and I am optimistic that this issue will be resolved. We have decided to hear from them because this is a democracy, if we were in a military dictatorship I may have just decreed and asked one party to step down.” culled from Vanguard.
