The Adamawa Progressives Elders Council under the leadership of His Excellency Brigadier Gen. Buba Marwa (Rtd) has sent a strong worded message of felicitations to the Muslim Ummah in Adamawa State and indeed the entire country on the occassion of the Eid-El-Fitr celebrations marking the end of the Ramadan season.

 

In a message sent by the Media office of the Organization, the group extended warm felicitations to the Leaders of APC in Adamawa State particularly the National Security Adviser Mallam Nuhu Ribadu and His Excellency Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri. Also the group sends Sallah salutations to the National Vice Chairman North East of the APC, the State Chairman of the party and all members of the state working committee.

 

While acknowledging that the one month long spiritual exercise was marked by sacrifices and charity, General Marwa said the Council “expects every member of the Council and indeed every citizen of Adamawa state to live in peace with one another and to embrace a culture of unity, fraternity and the pursuit of an Adamawa state that promotes our common heritage and shared prosperity”. Addressing the core issues related to the establishment of the Council, the leader of the group said in celebrating a spiritual event like Sallah, what normally happens are moments of joy and happiness that transcends our natural faultlines.

 

In his words, “in times like this we normally set aside our differences to rejoice with each other, l therefore enjoin us to carry this spirit beyond the Sallah period. We should build a bond of unity that endures” The Adamawa Progressives Elders Forum therefore calls on all the people of Adamawa state to rededicate themselves to the peace, unity and progress of Adamawa state.

 

The group urges the Muslim Ummah to carry on the lessons of piety and charity imbibed during the Ramadan season beyond the end of fasting period. Speaking further on behalf of the group, General Buba Marwa called on the members of the APC in Adamawa state to approach all the political activities coming up within the INEC timetable with maturity, understanding and brotherhood.

 

According to him “the goal of the progressive elders council is peace, unity and understanding among all members of the party in the state and by extension the entire citizens of the state” While reflecting on the recently concluded e-registration of party members in the state, General Marwa celebrated Adamawa state for emerging with the second highest figure nationwide after Lagos State.

 

He commended the NSA, the Governor, the State Chairman of the Party and State Working Committee members for this unprecedented feat. Gen Marwa as the leader of the Council believes that this is an affirmation of the confidence the people of Adamawa have in the leadership of His Excellency President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR. On behalf of the entire Membership of the Adamawa Progressives Elders Council, His Excellency Gen. Buba Marwa felicitates with the Muslim Ummah and prays for a very successful celebrations in peace, unity and brotherhood. May the season bring abundant blessings to the land and to the people of Adamawa state.

BREAKING: Arsenal Defeat Chelsea 2-1 at Emirates to Extend Unbeaten Run—-The Gunners came from behind after Morgan Rogers’ early opener, with Kai Havertz and Martin Ødegaard completing a comeback victory to maintain Arsenal’s perfect start to the Premier League season.

Arsenal produced another statement performance at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday, coming from behind to defeat Chelsea 2-1 and maintain their perfect start to the Premier League campaign.

Chelsea stunned the home crowd after just 77 seconds, when Morgan Rogers fired Xabi Alonso’s side into an early lead. Arsenal, however, responded strongly and gradually took control of the contest.

Kai Havertz restored parity in the 25th minute against his former club, finishing Arsenal’s sustained pressure to make it 1-1 before the break.

The Gunners continued to dominate after the restart and completed the comeback through captain Martin Ødegaard, who struck early in the second half after Havertz’s clever movement helped create the opening.

Chelsea pushed desperately for an equaliser late on, but Arsenal goalkeeper David Raya produced a crucial save to deny Estêvão and preserve all three points for the hosts.

The victory means Arsenal remain on nine points from three matches, level with Manchester City at the top of the Premier League. Chelsea, meanwhile, suffer their first league defeat of the season and remain on six points.

For Mikel Arteta, the comeback further underlined Arsenal’s championship credentials. The reigning champions showed composure after conceding their first goal of the campaign and once again demonstrated their ability to respond under pressure.

Chelsea’s defeat will be frustrating for Alonso, particularly after his side made such a fast start. Despite their attacking threat, Arsenal’s control and defensive resilience ultimately proved decisive.

The result also extends Arsenal’s remarkable unbeaten run against Chelsea to 12 matches across all competitions, further strengthening the Gunners’ recent dominance in the London derby.

BREAKING: Manchester City Agree £125m Deal to Sign Enzo Fernández From Chelsea On Deadline Day

BREAKING: Manchester City Agree £125m Deal to Sign Enzo Fernández From Chelsea On Deadline Day—-Cityzens have reached a British record-equalling agreement with Chelsea for the Argentina international on Deadline Day, with Fernández set to undergo his medical.

Manchester City have agreed a £125 million deal with Chelsea to sign Enzo Fernández in one of the biggest transfers of Deadline Day.

The agreement, reported by Sky Sports and other leading outlets, will see the Argentina international leave Stamford Bridge for the Etihad Stadium in a move that matches the British transfer record previously set by Liverpool’s £125m signing of Alexander Isak.

Fernández is expected to undergo his medical before completing the transfer, with City working against the clock to finalise the deal before the summer transfer window closes.

Maresca Reunites With Fernández

The move will see Fernández reunite with Enzo Maresca, who previously coached him at Chelsea and is now Manchester City’s manager.

Maresca is understood to have been a major driving force behind City’s pursuit of the midfielder as he looks to reshape his squad and strengthen the centre of midfield.

Fernández played an important role during Maresca’s time at Stamford Bridge, helping Chelsea win major silverware before the Italian manager’s move to Manchester.

Chelsea Accept Record Fee

Chelsea signed Fernández from Benfica in January 2023 for approximately £107 million, making him one of the most expensive players in Premier League history at the time.

Just over three years later, Chelsea have agreed to sell the 25-year-old for £125 million, representing a significant return on their original investment.

The Argentine had recently been left out of Chelsea’s squad for successive matches, increasing speculation that his Stamford Bridge future was coming to an end.

City Make Deadline-Day Statement

Manchester City had been pursuing Fernández for much of the summer, but negotiations intensified dramatically as the transfer deadline approached.

Chelsea had previously valued their midfielder at around £120 million and had initially expected him to remain at the club after an earlier deadline for bids passed without a formal offer. However, City’s interest never disappeared, and the two clubs eventually found an agreement on Deadline Day.

The final £125 million package now puts Fernández level with the British transfer record.

Fernández Begins New Chapter

For Fernández, the transfer brings an end to a turbulent period at Chelsea and opens a new chapter under a manager he already knows.

The World Cup-winning midfielder arrived in England with enormous expectations after starring for Argentina and Benfica.

At Manchester City, he will be expected to become a central figure in Maresca’s midfield and help the club compete on multiple fronts.

A Record-Breaking Transfer

The £125 million agreement places Fernández among the most expensive players in football history and makes the Deadline Day transfer one of the biggest stories of the summer window.

City are now racing to complete the remaining formalities, including the medical, before the deadline.
