Rooney told Sky Sports News: "I think since I've been in the squad this is probably the best group of forwards we've had in terms of ability, goal-scoring wise and then obviously Rickie Lambert's come into the squad, he's scoring goals for Southampton he's done really well for England.

Chief Nyesom Wike, the  Minister of State for Education has accused Governor Rotimi Amaechi of Rivers State and his cohorts in the new Peoples’ Democratic Party, nPDP, of being behind the prolonged strike by the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU. Speaking through the Secretary-General of the Grassroots Development Initiative, GDI, Samuel Nwanosike, Wike also called on well-meaning Nigerians to call Gov.

All of the church’s human waste is discharged into the canal after the church built its toilets on the canal. The State government has had to seal off the entire...
