  The Civil Rights and Anti-Corruption Network (CRACON) has called on President Bola Tinubu to set up a special investigative committee to probe Defence Minister Muhammed Abubakar Badaru over allegations of abuse of office and conflict of interest. In a statement on Wednesday by CRACON’s coordinator, Folashade Olumiya, the group urged the president to demonstrate consistency in his administration’s fight against corruption by applying the same scrutiny to Badaru as was done in the case of former Minister of Humanitarian Affairs, Betta Edu. “The president cannot afford to be selective in the war against corruption. If a committee was set up to investigate Betta Edu over allegations of financial misconduct, then the same must be done in the case of Defence Minister Muhammed Badaru,” the petition reads.

  As the Premier League season enters its final stretch, the stakes couldn’t be higher. Every match, every point, and every mistake could define a team’s season. All the big teams are fighting for a position at the upper end of the table except one – arguably the greatest English football club – Manchester United. Sitting in 13th place with eight games left, United are a staggering 15 points adrift of the top-four. A club that once dominated English football is now scrambling to salvage pride in a turbulent-filled season. Their latest setback, a 1-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest, epitomises their struggles.
