Fifa World Cup: Africa will get two extra places if tournament expands - Infantino

Gianni Infantino Africa will get an additional two World Cup finals places should the tournament be expanded to 40 teams from 2026, says Fifa president Gianni Infantino. Infantino proposed the expansion from 32 teams before he was elected by world football's governing body in February. Africa is currently allocated five places at World Cups. "My proposal has been 40 teams and if that happens then my proposal has been to have at least two extra places for African teams," said Infantino. The move would not come into effect until 2026 with the format of 32 teams already confirmed for Russia in 2018 and Qatar in 2022.

Congolese singer, Koffi Olomide gets 18-month jail term for assult

Koffi Olomide Legendary Congolese singer, Koffi Olomide is sentenced to an 18-month jail term without the option of fine by a Kinshasa court following an assault on one of his female dancers in Nairobi, Kenya few days ago. A congressman, Zakarie Bababaswe reportedly started a campaign against Koffi upon his arrival in Congo, going on TV to question why the singer was still walking scot-free despite damning evidence. A Kenyan publication, The Star reports that the 56-year-old singer who has a long history of violence was then immediately arrested and charged to court for assault on the victim known as Pamela. After reportedly pleading his innocence with his lawyers arguing that Koffi was manhandled by the police, the singer was found guilty of the offence and was subsequently sentenced to over a year in jail, the publication revealed. Koffi Olomide was also once convicted in his home country in 2012, after assaulting Diego Lubaki, his producer.

Brown jeep. At that moment, everyone will neutralize all abnormal behavior and we will position ourselves in the strictest way possible. For those who had complaints against them pending for the day, your body usually transformed into an empty warehouse for the fact that you don’t know the kind of verdict you were going to receive.
