Stoke hughes lauds Odemwingie

Stoke City manager, Mark Hughes is delighted with the impact made by Nigerian striker, Peter Odemwingie. Odemwingie has scored five league goals for Stoke since joining from Cardiff City in January.
  His latest strike was recorded in the 62nd minute on Saturday as the Potters beat Hull City 1-0 at the Britannia Stadium on match day 32 of the 2013/14 Barclays English Premier League season.
  It left Hughes in positive spirits and he took the time to praise his Nigerian acquisition whose form in front of goal has left many an eyebrow raised. "We're pleased with what he's producing. He's obviously come in and he wasn't a risk really because he's an accomplished Premier League player who has scored goals at this level so we know what we were getting,”
  Hughes said at the post match press conference. Hughes also commended the 32-year-old for taking very little time to settle in at his new surroundings.
"You always hope the period of going to a new club, settling down and getting used to who's around you in the dressing room is short. "In fairness to Peter he's come in and seamlessly picked up some outstanding form. I think that comes in being happy in his environment and happy in the players that surround him. "We're reaping the benefits because he's a major factor in us winning today," he said on Saturday.
  Odemwingie will be hoping to force his way into Nigeria’s World Cup squad with his latest goal scoring heroics. The forward hasn’t played for the Super Eagles since February 29, 2012.
  Odemwingie earned his Nigeria debut in 2002 and has since scored nine goals in 55 appearances for the Super Eagles.

Papoose Says He’s Better Than Jay Z & Will Drop A Project Every Month

Since Papoose’s unexpected performance at the end of Kendrick Lamar’s set at Hot 97′s Summer Jam XX last year, Papoose has been two things: prolific and brazen. In an interview with The New York Daily News , Pap proclaims his “King of New York” dominance over all MCs, promises to release an album every month and more.
  Papoose, who has dissed Drake, Kendrick Lamar and Trinidad James since last summer, points to his lyrical dexterity that puts him above the rest: Nobody is better than me — Jay-Z, nobody.
  None are more lyrically inclined than me. None of them.
I’m definitely the king of New York. I am the greatest out of New York. Papoose’s last album, the perpetually delayed Nacrimea Dream was released March 2013 and has sold 17,000 to date. Papoose claims that his lack of commercial success will not deter him and in response he will embark on the most prolific promotional campaign of his career: I’m going to release a body of music every month.” I don’t feel like there’s no artist out there doing that.

Lagos gets $200m World Bank support

The World Bank’s Board of Executive Directors has approved a total of US$200 million budget support to Lagos State for the ongoing reforms pertaining to fiscal sustainability, budget planning, budget execution, and the investment climate in Lagos State.

The first in a proposed series of two development policy operations, the donation builds upon the policy reforms initiated under a previous Bank supported program.

World Bank said that over the last decade, Lagos State has undertaken a wide range of reforms that have improved governance, reduced crime, and helped to bring millions out of poverty.

According to the World Bank, the goal of this program is to assist Lagos State in sustaining the strong momentum it has achieved in improving public services, facilitating inclusive growth, and reducing poverty.

“This includes measures to monitor and manage financial risks more effectively, ensure adequate growth in revenues, get better value for money in public expenditures, and improve institutions and processes for land registration and development permits”.

World Bank Country Director for Nigeria, Marie Francoise Marie-Nelly, said, “Lagos State has sustained rapid growth and achieved what many would not have believed possible, and has managed to reduce its poverty headcount from 57% in 2004 to 23% in 2010. “However, it still faces significant challenges going forward in sustaining its economic growth and reducing poverty. This program will provide critical budgetary support to Lagos State to help the government continue key reforms in budgetary planning, execution, and improving the business climate,” she said. The program the World Bank said supports a number of specific measures that aim to increase the returns to budgetary resources in Lagos State, including the implementation of progressive new Procurement and Audit laws, a stronger link of planned budgetary allocations with development priorities, and the rollout of a computerized system that will allow more efficient and transparent financial management.

The operation also supports key reforms for the investment climate, particularly in land registration, as well as greater capacity in Lagos State to monitor financial risks. “The achievements of Lagos have inspired and boosted the hopes of other States that have initiated similar programs leading to knowledge sharing among them. The program is designed to support Lagos State in its endeavour to sustain its accomplishments,” said John Litwack, Program Task Team Leader and Lead Economist at the World Bank.

Disastrous Injury For Arsenal Ahead Of City Clash

Arsenal have received a boost ahead of the clash against Manchester City this weekend. Arsenal have a fair share of their own injury worries but they aren’t the only affected party as Manchester have theirs too.

  According to the Daily Star , the Etihad giants will be without the services of their top striker Sergio Aguero against the Gunners.
  The Argentine hit-man has been out of action owing to a hamstring injury. The absence of Aguero, is it really a boost?Yes but Manchester City are blessed with abundant of attacking talents and 8 goals in 2 matches is a testament to the fact that they aren’t really missing Aguero.
  In Jovetic, Dzeko and Negredo, Manchester City have more than enough replacement for the Argentine. In Yaya Toure, the Manchester side also boast of a huge goal outlet.
  Arsenal would do well to focus on the entire Manchester City as they can score for different outlets. The key to beating City would be defensive solidity, midfield discipline and sharp attack. They cannot afford to be profligate in attack if we really want to win the match. Hopefully, Wenger will get his selection right and the players selected would prove their mettle on the field.
  It is high time we beat a top team and banish this feeling that we can’t stand toe to toe with our title rivals.
