Mikel John Obi Chelsea midfielder shuts down his twitter account

The 25-year-old is a player who has long split Chelsea fans’ opinion, with many lauding him for his defensive graft while others bemoan his lack of creativity.

On this occasion the abuse went far beyond general football complaints.
A disappointed Mikel had apologised for his mistake after the match.
‘If I want to make up an excuse, I can,’ he said. ‘But, for me, I gave the ball away. I put my hands up, we move on.
‘I’m sorry about the mistake, but there are no excuses.’

Despite his apologies he still got racist messages on mistakes against Juventus and other abuse was sent to him on the social network.

‘Abuse on social networks is abhorrent. Racist tweets towards Mikel are totally unacceptable. Police informed. #CFC supports strongest action.’

The Nigerian had been bombarded with these vulgar messages after making a mistake which contributed to Chelsea’s downfall against Juventus in the Champions League on Wednesday.
Chelsea were leading 2-1 when Mikel’s sloppy pass returned the ball to the Italians, who went on to score through Fabio Quagliarella and salvage a point.

Jacob had allegedly stopped his bus to carry passengers in a no-parking zone, which had led to the brutal assault by the law enforcement agents.

In the aftermath of his death, both the police and LASTMA have denied culpability and accused each other of being responsible for the beating and eventual death of the driver. Speaking on the issue, Babatunde Edu, General Manager, LASTMA, blamed the police for Jacob’s death and said it was “not true that LASTMA officials killed the driver.”

 “In fact the police officers involved were on a different mission,” he said, noting that officers at the Ilupeju Police Station had begun investigations into the matter. “Those officer responsible for the killing of the driver were not operating with LASTMA at all, they were operating on their own.”

Meanwhile, Richard Omolaja, the agency’s spokesman, has identified four police officers: Wasiu, Matthew, Lukman, and Legba, as responsible and claimed that eight policemen had being detained over the issue, with the bus conductor expected to identify the assailants among the officers.

 Ngozi Braide, Police Public Relations Officer, however, denied claims of police involvement in the Jacob’s death.

19 year old girl wins a seat in Uganda's parliament

A teenage girl fresh out of high school has won a seat in Uganda's parliament, adding to the ruling party's majority but embarrassing some who say her success lowers expectations of lawmakers in the East African country.

Proscovia Oromait, 19, contested elections deep in eastern Uganda to fill the seat left vacant after her father's death.

President Yoweri Museveni's ruling party had been desperate for a win, having lost seven in eight parliamentary by-elections this year.

The polls are widely seen as a test of Museveni's popularity, and some calculated that she would win with a sympathy vote. The result was Uganda's youngest lawmaker ever - and a boost for Museveni's party.
