*Nine years electricity blackout: Gbonyin youth cries out*

By Johnson Aderopo, Olamide Akinwumi

The youth in Gbonyin  Local government area of Ekiti state, has expressed worried over nine years of epileptic power supply in the local government.

The youths in the communique stetement issued on Wednesday, 7th of July 2021, cried out for immediate intervention from the state government.

According to the Coordinator Nigeria Youth council Gbonyin local government chapter, Mr. Fajembola Oluwaseun
"It's exactly nine years now since the local government had power supply from the national grid.
"I think it's high time our elders, Kings and stakeholders meet to deliberate on what to do in order to light up our towns"

He added that, "the effect of power outrage on our youth and students has forced migration of our youths and students outside the local government area which has in many ways affected the socio-economic development of the towns.
"the lack of electricity has led to poor academic performance of our youths and students because it's difficult for them to access educational materials on-line".

He further stated the disadvantages of not having effective power supply in the local government area.

He said, "socioeconomic development of our towns too has been affected because of the inability of our people to partake in the wealth that abounds in e-commerce. In today's global economy, anyone can trade from any corner of the globe with others in other parts of the planet via electronic commerce (e-commerce).

"Men of the underworld take advantage of the power outage to commit all forms of crimes ranging from burglary to rape and kidnapping".

However,  Fajembola, laments on the economic hardship the blackout have cause to the youths in the region.
According to him, "hard learned income of our youths and even parents are spent on purchase of fossil fuel to power generators and this has to stop.

"Most of our youths have been through thick and thin as regards electronic registration and related matters and  we don't have any ICT Centre in Gbonyin because of power outage, our students and youth cannot engage in online learning and seminars due to the power outage and this has led to redundancy and poor intellectual development amongst our students and youths".

However, Mr. Fajembola, appeal to the state government led by His excellence, Governor John Olukayode Fayemi, to come to their rescue in the region.

History Making: Leicester City wins its first FA Cup trophy, beating Chelsea 1-0 thanks to Youri Tielemans' stunning strike
By: Olamide Akinwumi 
A magnificent long-range strike from Youri Tielemans gave Leicester City their first FA Cup triumph with a 1-0 victory over Chelsea at Wembley on Saturday, in front of the biggest crowd in England since March 2020.

KEY POINTS:
Leicester had been beaten in all four previous FA Cup final appearances, most recently in 1969.

The final whistle prompted emotional celebrations from the 2016 Premier League winners, who are enjoying the most successful period in their history

There was a real football atmosphere for the first time in over a year as the reduced-capacity crowd filled the stadium with noise.

A landmark day, as 21,000 fans returned to the national stadium after last year's final was played behind closed doors due to the coronavirus pandemic, ended with emotional scenes as Leicester's Thai owner was invited onto the field to celebrate with the team.

Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha's father Vichai, whose ownership helped transform the Midlands club, died in 2018 in a helicopter crash at Leicester's stadium.

Leicester had been beaten in all their four previous FA Cup final appearances, most recently in 1969, and it was a goal that will be remembered as one of the finest in the competition's 149-year history that earned their maiden win.

There was late drama when Wes Morgan put through his own goal in the 89th minute to get Chelsea thinking they were taking the game into extra time, only for VAR to rule it out for offside.

Even after a loss, however, the Chelsea supporters will surely look back with fondness on a day when for the first time in over a year there was a real football atmosphere, with the reduced-capacity crowd filling the 90,000-capacity stadium with noise.

Thomas Tuchel's Chelsea dominated the first half but struggled to create major openings, even after Leicester lost their centre half, Jonny Evans, to injury in the 34th minute.

Tielemans's goal will count among the finest to win this 149-year old competition.

Collecting the ball centrally, he pushed forward and as the Chelsea defence backed off he unleashed a perfectly struck drive that the diving Kepe Arrizabalaga could do nothing about.

Chelsea felt there had been a handball in the build-up but they still had chances to get back on level terms.

Former Leicester fullback Ben Chilwell, on as a Chelsea substitute, had a header pushed against the post by Schmeichel. The Dane did even better to keep out a goalbound late effort from the dangerous Mason Mount.

There was late drama when Chelsea thought they had levelled after Caglar Soyuncu attempted to clear a Chilwell cross and the ball struck Morgan before ending in the net.

To Leicester's relief and Chelsea's dismay, however, the VAR replay showed that Chilwell had been offside.

The final whistle prompted emotional celebrations from Leicester, the 2016 Premier League winners who are enjoying the most successful period in their history.

According to the Leicester manager, Brendan Rodgers "It's an amazing feeling, I wasn't aware before I came to Leicester that they'd never won the FA Cup, they'd lost in four finals previous so to be able to give that to the owners and the fans, so special.

"So proud, the board, players, staff, supporters — it is an amazing day for the city.

"Youri Tielemans's goal was like an old-school FA cup-winning goal but also Kasper Schmeichel's save, those are the special moments you need in games," he added.

Tuchel still has a chance of lifting silverware when Chelsea face Manchester City in the Champions League final on May 29 in Porto.
