Ever Since Mourinho's departure, Chelsea has improved- Mikel Obi

Following the departure of Chelsea's coach from the club, Jose Mourinho, Nigerian and Chelsea Midfielder, Mikel Obi has come foward to say the club has improved.

  

The 52 year old Portuguese was sacked on Thursday 17th December, 2015... just seven months after leading the English Team to a triumphant win at the English Premier League 2014/2015 season.

The reason for this is known to all and sundry as Chelsea have suffered terrible blows this season as they lost 9 of their 16 matches, ended up at 16th on the premier league table- just a spot above the relegation teams and they have been totally off-form this season. The last straw that broke the camel's back was when Chelsea conceded a 2-1 defeat against Leicester City.

In Mikel's words, He said, "It was a collective thing the players and the manager were not performing. Jose Mourinho led the blues to title glory last season but left the bridge with the club 16th on the league."

He added saying, "We have moved on from that and the atmosphere has changed since the change of manager."

Hoverboards gone "boom"!!!

Hoverboards, also known as Self Balancing Scooters were one of the most talked about tech products in 2015. These little machines were seen virtually everywhere ranging from red carpets, to movie shows, and mostly on Instagram.


These machines later made the news on a bad note as they reported to either have caught fire or exploded.


Several countries have since labelled them Illegal while some banned them from being used on sidewalks and in public. Several airlines have banned them on flights and online shops like Amazon have taken them off their shelves.


A Federal Agency also claimed to be investigating the issue trying to figure out why these things are bursting into flames.

Dr. Ibe Kachikwu, The Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, while inspecting the Port Harcourt Refining Company, disclosed to newsmen on Thursday that on 1st January, 2016 , the Federal Government of Nigeria might reduce fuel pump price to 85 naira per litre.


Dr. Ibe, after been pressed to reveal the exact date this new development will take effect from, he said the Federal Government were looking at January 1st and as for the price, he said the template prepared by the Petroleum Product Pricing Regulation Agency revealed a price below 87 naira.


He said that this is to show Nigerians that the pricing modulation the Federal Goverment said it was going to embark upon was not a bluff as the modulation revealed a price below 87 naira and was falling between 86 and 87 naira.


He also added that he signed off the new price on Thursday and petrol marketers would soon get an advice to this note. Dr. Kachikwu also said that Federal Government cannot afford to subsidize anymore. They realized there were lots of fraud elements in the subsidy plan and have to totally cut it off.

THE BEAUTIFUL UGLINESS IN MY HEART

Whatever you do whatever you say,

Never will I come back to stay,

These were the words she spake into mine ear,

And struck my heart with sorrow so severe.

I look upon her and realise I'm lost,

My soul is buried beneath a castle of frost,

In the morn did I take my own life,

Only to be sent back to this life of strife.

Anything would I give to be happy,

But in a pool of sorrow did Zeus send me,

Weakness soaks me from my crown to my knee,

I wish from Genesis this pain could I forsee.

My Lady

In the summer I fell in love with my lady,

The aura of purity radiated from her soul as of a baby,

I longed to be with her,

Her whereabouts remained as mysterious as the star,

Finally her beauty like the sun shone from her chamber,

Sounds from within heard I as though she were in danger,

Instantly was I her lover thrown in a state of panic,

I opened the door and right there was I static,

I had searched for my lady day and night,

My soul crumbled from what beheld my sight,

For there she was,

In another man's arms,

He struck me with a scornful gaze,

Fiery was my anger his very soul could it raze,

To her I award a sad applause,

For once again she shredded my heart with her claws.
