Super Eagles Squad what Drops From €307m To €256m

The Super Eagles of Nigeria squad have moved down in the latest financial rankings of national teams. 

The three-time African champions are ranked the 21st most valuable international team globally while retaining their third most valuable team position in Africa.

The Super Eagles have a total value of €256.90m due to the massive boost of players plying their trade in Europe’s lucrative leagues. 

Before the latest rankings, they were placed 20th, with a market value of €307.13m.

According to the latest financial rankings, the Nigerian squad value witnessed a decrease of €50m compared to the squad value of €226.65m.

While Napoli forward, Victor Osimhen has the highest rise between the end of the 2021/22 season and the 2022/23 season, his non-involvement with the national team in recent times due to injuries means he wasn’t included in the squad, according to transfer market.

His excellent form, despite his limited time, saw a massive €5m rise in his market value, moving from €60m to €65m, moving him above Leicester City midfielder, Wilfred Ndidi, whose value dropped from €60m to €50m due to injuries and recent poor form.

Kelechi Iheanacho and Samuel Chukwueze are both valued at €20m each in the ranking.

Goalkeeper Maduka Okoye, who recently hit his first million in his career, also saw an increase of €2.5m following his recent move to Watford, as he is currently valued at €3.5m.

Of the 27 players listed in the squad by transfer market, 17 players fall within the range of players with a value of less than €10m.

Captain Ahmed Musa (€3.40m), Cyriel Dessers (€6m), Frank Onyeka (€9m), Raphael Onyedika (€8m), Ola Aina (€3.5m) are some of the players with less than €10m value.

The decrease and increase in the players’ value put together culminated in the Eagles moving down to 21st place globally while retaining their position as the third most valuable team on the continent.

Ivory Coast overtook Senegal to become the most valuable African team with a value of €380.95m, while the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations winners are second with a market value of €286.50m.

Meanwhile, England retains their position as the most financially valuable team in the world with a market value of €1.36bn.

Sailor who ferried boat that capsized in Anambra leaving over 30 people including women and children dead, speaks

The traders forced me to ferry them - Sailor who ferried boat that capsized in Anambra leaving over 30 people including women and children dead, speaks

The sailor of the boat that capsized at Umunankwo in Ogbaru local government area of Anambra State over the weekend and led to the death of over 30 persons, has said that the deceased female traders forced him to embark on the ill-fated trip as they were desperate to dispose of their crops harvested prematurely due to this year’s flood that submerged their farms before the maturity of the planted crops.

In a chat with newsmen, Amaugo said his boat had 48 persons onboard.

“I did not want to embark on that trip, but the people, mostly women, who were desperate to go to Nkwo Ogbakuba market to sell premature crops harvested from flooded farms, begged me to ferry them to the market. 

The market women besieged my house and persuaded me to sail them to Ogbakuba. Having taken off, the wave became too severe and all my attempts to control it failed. The water waves knocked the boat against the pillars of Umunnakwo/Ossomala bridge against all efforts I made to stabilize it.

Suddenly, the boat capsized. It was terrible seeing people struggle for life.”

One Mr. Bernard Achonu from Isiala Mbano, Imo State, who resides in Mputu community said he lost his wife and three children aged between two and six years. He said that his family joined the boat to move to a safe area as the flood had submerged almost all houses in the communities in Ogbaru, regretting that the attempt to secure them had turned out to be a misadventure.

Another person, Sebastian Umeorji, who said he was still searching for the body of his wife was sobbing uncontrollably.

Nigeria Team Wins Best Fashion At The Beijing Winter Olympic 2022 [PHOTOS]

Team Nigeria blended tradition with practicality when choosing their uniforms. The delegates represented their country wearing green and white uniforms, each sporting a head wrap. The uniforms were created by black-owned sports apparel brand Actively Black.

The parade of nations in the Winter Olympics is really the parade of puffers. Unlike the Summer Games, cold weather means less room for fashion.

Accessories were the easiest way for most countries to stand out. The Nigerian athletes eschewed beanies and bobble knits for traditional wrap hats.

They were chosen as the Best Uniforms at the 2022 Winter Olympics Opening Ceremonies

How i discovers that my dad created anonymous accounts to view my nudes and he's one of my top paying customers

A woman called the police on her biological father after finding out that he created fake social media accounts and has been paying to view her naked photos and videos.

 

21-year-old Karla Ramirez said her father had been buying her OnlyFans content through two accounts for more than a year.

 

She said she found out her father was the person behind the accounts while having a phone call sex with the anonymous customer only to hear her mother's voice in the background during the call.

 

In a series of TikTok videos explaining the situation, Karla said that the man, who she later figured out is her father, forgot to mute his microphone while on a paid sexual phone call with her.

 

She wrote on TikTok: "When my dad yes, my DAD has been buying my OF through not one but two accounts, and was a personal client of mine on both accounts for over a year, and the only way I found out is because he called me to ‘play with myself for $150 and I could hear my mum in the back ground talking on the phone."

 

In a series of follow-up videos,  Karla explained that she’d moved out of her parents’ house when she was just 16 years old, and hadn’t talked to her father in the years since.

 

Disgusted by finding out that he’d been following her adult content online, she acknowledged she’d suspected something funny about that particular follower for a while.

 

She said in one video: "I should have just known. I should have just known from the get-go that something was off."

 

She went on, explaining that she called the police about the horrific situation, and then rushed to her parents’ house to confront her father.

 

At her parents' house, she began to yell at her dad while he allegedly tried to prove his innocence by denying that he had the accounts linked on his phone.

 

Karla said she never specifically revealed why she was there to her father so "it was just so obvious" as to why he was apologizing preemptively.

 

She recalled: "I go inside and I started beating him. I’m your daughter you sick f**k and my mom was yelling at me to stop. … He just knew why I was there. It was just so obvious. He already knew why I was there and he was just trying to cover his ass."

 

Karla went on to explain that she believes her dad has allegedly been catfishing her ever since she was in middle school by using fake Facebook and Snpachat accounts.

 

She also alleged that her father sexually assaulted her and put her in a position to be molested when she was a very young girl.

 

She also revealed in the clip that her father allegedly sent her money to rate his d*ck pictured via Snapchat.

 

Her story has gone viral on TikTok and it's being widely shared on other platforms too.
