Former Manchester United boss, Jose Mourinho, says his next managerial stint will be at a club which does not have internal conflicts. The Portuguese manager has remained unemployed since being sacked by United following a 3-1 defeat at Liverpool in December. Mourinho expects to return to the fold sooner than later and says he's already turned down a club because it didn't tick the right boxes. "I don't want an internal conflict," the 56-year-old told the Telegraph. "I want internal empathy. I want to work in a club that understands there is a structure in place. During my career I have been working in every possible circumstance. The most successful situations are not because of the structure but because of the empathy in the structure." The former Chelsea boss wishes to lead a club that aspires to be a "trophy-hunter." He added: "If it is a club without ambition I wouldn't go. I refused [the job offer] because I want h...

The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, says he came to the financial rescue of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) when it was launched in 2004. Atiku spoke on The Candidate, a presidential town hall conversation hosted by Kadaria Ahmed, a journalist in response to a question on how he would make the anti-graft agency independent and able to discharge its duties on time without preferential treatment. He said the EFCC had no budgetary allocation to begin operation when it was launched. “My quarrel with the judicial system is that there is too much delay. If we can shorten the delay, so that justice is seen to be meted out immediately, better for us. “The problem is the legislation and the procedure being adopted by the judiciary. The cases we initiated in our administration are still in court. Now, where is the justice? “When we set up the EFCC, I personally brought the first draft of the regulation from Brazil an...

Fashola dropped the hint at a radio programme monitored by newsmen. He said the enormity and complexity of the state do not allow for it to be superintended by an inexperienced person.

Thierry Henry has been suspended from his role as coach of struggling Ligue 1 side Monaco as they prepare for a key relegation clash this weekend, the club announced on Thursday. "Henry has been suspended until a definitive decision is made," the club said in a statement, adding assistant coach Franck Passi would oversee training on Friday ahead of their trip to fellow strugglers Dijon.

Monaco are two points behind Dijon, who are 17th and a further point from safety, after collecting only three wins from 21 matches, and crashed out of Europe early after finis...
