    It was another week of activities and once again, Nigerians were all over social media making their opinions known. Here are some of the stories that trended over the week.

    Nigerians took to social media to congratulate the Super Falcons star, who was part of Nigeria’s team that triumphed at last year’s Africa Women’s Cup of Nations in Ghana.

    Oshoala is one of the most successful African footballers with 3 African Cup of Nations trophies, the English Women’s FA Cup and the Chinese women’s Super League title to her name. She has previously played for Liverpool and Arsenal Ladies.

    Chelsea fans get trolled after losing 4-0 to lowly-rated Bournemouth

    It is no longer new that during the week,
    Chelsea FC were flogged 4-0 by Bournemouth. The loss was their most disgraceful and biggest defeat since 2004. But there was no mercy for their fans on various social media as the trolls came after them.

    If you didn't watch Bournemouth vs Chelsea's match yesterday, here is the highlight..😂😂 #BOUCHE pic.twitter.com/p3G9UPrAvv

    Even amidst all the critics on social media, Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri claimed responsibility for the defeat.

    Anyway, we wish them better luck in their next matches.

    Buhari locks down Kano

    Presidential candidate of the All Progressive Congress Candidate visited Kano and caused a total lock down of the state. Although not a very popular president, the massive crowd that greeted him was like a tsunami.

    This has kept lots of Nigerians wondering if it was only people from Kano or all over the world.

    The crowd is now uncontrollable in Kano.

    Kano stadium is filled up to d brim. It can only be made possible by PMB.

    If you doubt 5 Millon votes for Buhari in Kano you are on your own. pic.twitter.com/Ftp4pOB0bq

    — Honour (@azeez_ibrahim11) January 31, 2019

    Some supporters have already given him the victory in that state. But is the crowd during campaign really a factor for winning? Nigerians cant wait for February 16th to come. We hope and pray for hitch free elections.
