15 year old Nigerian schoolboy and footballer, Joel Adeshina was stabbed to death at Bethnal Green Road in East London on Friday night December 5th by a group of boys.

Manager of Joel’s football team Bardag FC Yellows, Ricky Downes, said Joel, who was a winger, was ‘as good as gold’ and talented enough to play professionally.
“To say that myself and the club are devastated is an understatement, we are absolutely in bits.
Joel was a wonderful young lad who had the world at his feet. He was a very talented footballer and had ambitions of playing professionally.
I think he had a future in the sport and could have played for a living.
There was something about Joel that touched me and his death is totally unexpected.
He never gave me any inkling that he was involved in gangs or anything like that.
He was cheeky, bubbly, and a thoroughly likeable young man.’ he said
No one has so far been arrested for Joel’s m****r. MET Police say they are still investigating.

Nigerian schoolgirls' home town in despair after president cancels visit

Relatives of more than 200 Nigerian schoolgirls who have been missing for more than a month after being kidnapped by Islamic militants have voiced anger and despair after the country's president cancelled a visit to their home town, citing security concerns. As the international effort to find and rescue the girls gathered momentum, with military and intelligence resources from the US, UK, France, Israel and Canada pouring into Nigeria , and the #bringbackourgirls social media campaign exceeded 1m tweets, there was mounting criticism of President Jonathan Goodluck's slow response to the crisis. In Chibok on Friday, the home town of the missing girls, families said they had lost faith in the government to do everything possible to rescue their daughters, sisters and nieces. In Washington, a senior US official admonished Nigeria's failure to tackle the insurgency. Many relatives had gathered at the Chibok government girls secondary school, from which ...

HOW DO YOU WANT TO BE REMEMBERED?

Genesis 32:24-32 I read recently about a man who had passed away and what they wanted the funeral parlor to do with the body. This man was a big Pittsburgh Steelers fan, and this is how the family wanted him remembered. So they told the funeral director that instead of placing his body in a coffin, they wanted the man placed on a recliner, with a television playing Pittsburgh Steelers highlights. Next to him there was to be a table with an open can of beer and a package of cigarettes. This is how his family remembered him, and this is how the family wanted the rest of his friends and loved ones to remember him. This was the lasting impression that was imprinted on the minds of people who knew him. The question I have for you today is a simple one: How do you want people to remember you? One day all of us are going to die, and how would you want people to remember you? Some of us might die soon, and some of us might not die for a while, and we have all heard that statement about lasti...
