My 2022/23 Premier League Team of the Season

My nominated team via PL (EASport FUT23)

Presenting my Premier League team of the season, selected based on merit alone. Although I had hoped to include David de Gea as the goalkeeper and Bruno Fernandez as CM, unfortunately, they were not nominated by the officials responsible for the selection process. Nevertheless, I have carefully considered each player's performance and believe that the following individuals deserve recognition:

Goalkeeper: Nick Pope (Newcastle United) Pope has had an exceptional season, as evidenced by the numerous clean sheets he has helped secure.

LB: Luke Shaw (Manchester United) Shaw has been outstanding this season, impressing not just Manchester United fans but even rival supporters with his performances. He has demonstrated his versatility by performing well in various positions, including as a left center back in several games.

LCB: Lisandro Martinez (Manchester United) Despite initial doubts about his height, Martinez has silenced his critics with his tenacity, accurate passing, and ability to help Manchester United keep 14 clean sheets this season. Unfortunately, his season was cut short due to a recent injury.

RCB: Ruben Diaz (Manchester City) As a Manchester United fan, it pains me to admit that Diaz has had a fantastic season at Manchester City. He is a tough, experienced defender who has been instrumental to his team's success.

RB: Kieran Trippier (Newcastle United) Trippier's return to Newcastle United has been impressive, with his lethal set-piece skills and menacing attacks down the flank. He deserves recognition for his contributions this season.

CM: Martin Ødegaard (Arsenal) Ødegaard is one of the league's top young midfielders, and his impact on Arsenal's success this season cannot be overstated. He has contributed double-digit goals and assists and is a deserving addition to this team.

DM: Casemiro (Manchester United) Despite early doubts about his ability, Casemiro has become an integral part of Manchester United's resurgence this season. He is a solid defensive midfielder who can shut down opposing teams' attacks.

CM: Kevin De Bruyne (Manchester City) De Bruyne is an exceptional player who consistently demonstrates his incredible passing skill and the ability to score screamers. If he maintains his current form, he will undoubtedly continue to feature in future Premier League teams of the season.

LW: Marcus Rashford (Manchester United) Rashford is in the best form of his career, having scored more than 28 goals this season. He shows no signs of slowing down and is a vital part of Manchester United's success.

ST: Erling Braut Haaland (Manchester City) Haaland may not be the type of striker that I prefer, but there is no denying his goal-scoring prowess. He is a prolific scorer who is always a threat to opposing defenses.

RW: Bukayo Saka (Arsenal) Saka has been excellent since the start of the season, contributing goals and assists while also showcasing his impressive skills and speed. He is a constant threat down the right side and deserves recognition for his outstanding performances.

This is my team of the season. What's yours?

Exploring the Health Benefits of Fura and Nono

Image
Together with my friends enjoying fura and nono at WREE ABU Zaria Fura and nono is a traditional West African food drink made by the Fulani and Hausa tribes of Northern Nigeria. It offers several health benefits that many people are not aware of. It is a delightful and healthy treat consisting of fermented cow's milk (nono) with millet or sorghum dough (fura). When combined, the two provide a well-balanced amount of energy and critical nutrients, making them a perfect meal at any time of day. Fura is usually produced from millet or sorghum, depending on the maker's preference. The grains are thoroughly washed and skinned before being ground into flour with spices such as cloves, ginger, and dried pepper. The flour is then combined with water to form a dough, which is cooked and pounded with a pestle and mortar until sticky before being shaped into small balls. To protect the balls from drying out, they are dusted with leftover millet flour. Furthermore, fura, which ...

How My First True Love Story Ended

Image
Myself 🤨 The day had been long and stressful. I got back to the hostel at 6 p.m., weary from lectures. Suleiman Hall in ABU Zaria is often congested in the evenings with students trudging to their rooms, mosque, or toilet. I can't remember the date, but the hostel was as noisy as usual when I entered. The noise level was high, with music blaring from some rooms and laughter and conversation echoing down the corridors. My room was on the second floor of block F4, but that day I chose to go to my friend's room, which is on the ground floor to perform ablution and pray the Maghrib Prayer. When I walked into the room, all of the kettles were taken. I had to wait for someone before I prayed. My phone rang as I was waiting for my turn. I answered the phone, and an unknown woman's voice on the other end greeted me. "Please, is this Adamu?" she inquired. "Yes, who is this?" I replied quickly. She went on to say that her friend gave her my phone numb...

An Overview of My NYSC Experience: What You Should Know

Image
Established in 1973, the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) aimed to facilitate national integration after Nigeria suffered from a civil war that spanned from 1967-1970. The scheme's objectives were straightforward: to “reconcile, reconstruct, rehabilitate” and mend the lines of divide and distrust among Nigerians. Furthermore, the scheme aimed to instill discipline, a genuine sense of patriotism, and personal development in the youth service corps. Tertiary institution graduates below the age of 30 are the eligible candidates who are mobilized in batches A, B, and C, as well as Streams I & II, to undergo this tasking journey. They are then deployed across the six geopolitical zones of the country to undergo a three-week on-camp orientation followed by a one-year national service.  Arriving at the Orientation Camp Upon arriving at the Kaduna State temporary orientation camp, Government College, Kurmin Mashi, at sunset, I was greeted by different security officials ...
