cameron in afcon final by winning ghana 2 0

Cameroon to play Egypt in AFCON final as Ghana's 35-year wait for success continues

Goals from Cameroon's Michael Ngadeu-Ngadjui and Christian Bassogog were enough to secure a 2-0 win over Ghana on Thursday night to place Cameroon in the 2017 AFCON final against Egypt in Gabon.

After sturdy defending from Avram Grant coached Ghana, who haven't won the nations cup in 35 years, Cameroon without much stellar names in their squad, broke the deadlock in the 72nd minute after shabby goalkeeping from Ghana's Abdul Razak, then at the cusp of full time , Cameroon had a breakaway strike that allowed Christian Bassogog to seal the result for Cameroon.

Ghana will have to wait for another two years to break the AFCON 'curse' while Cameroon will face favorites Egypt in the final.

Abba Kyari, President Buhari and Adesina The respondents in interviews in Abuja on Wednesday expressed optimism that the president was `hale and hearty’ in spite of the rumours. Dr Edet Imuk, a soil scientist with University of Calabar, said, `what binds Nigerians together actually precedes the whims of ethnic, socio-cultural or political divide.’ “Nigerians need to realise that the Office of the President is not a product of mere political will. “The occupant of such office has paid dearly mentally and spiritually, which oftentimes costs him sleepless nights.’’ He said the president’s well-being should be of concern to all Nigerians. Dr Bello Babaumma of Nasarawa State University, said that Buhari’s anti-graft crusade had singled him out as a fearless leader. He said that the president is justified in taking time out for vacation and to take care of his health, considering that physical fitness was necessary for him to discharge his duties effectively. “Buhari is a fearless leader

Obasanjo Former Nigeria’s President has called on African countries to explore trading opportunities within the continent as part of efforts to boost their economies.

The delegation, led by the Minister of Industry, Trade and Investment, Dr. Okechukwu Enalamah, included the Minister of State for Industry, Trade and Investment, Aisha Abubakar, and members of some committees of the National Assembly. The delegation was in Abeokuta for the eighth edition of the council’s meeting, with the theme: “Diversification of the Nigerian Economy: From Over Dependence on Oil Exports.” The former president expressed concern that the share of intra-African trade in Africa’s total trade over the past decade was only about 12 per cent compared to 65 per cent of Asia. Obasanjo called for removal of all barriers against intra- African trade and the establishment of commodity exchange for agricultural goods produced in the region. He also called for the establishment of coastal shipping system to ease trading within the region.
