 CURBING OPEN DEFECATION: LASG, WATERAID, PRIVATE SECTOR COLLABORATE TO BUILD 350 PUBLIC TOILETS IN LAGOS  The Lagos State Government, in collaboration with WaterAid Plan and private operators, is set to build 350 more public toilets across the state to curb widespread open defecation and maintain hygiene and sanitation.  This is just as the State WaterAid team lead gave a projection that by 2028, the organisation will reach 10 million residents directly and another 17 million indirectly through interventions with basic Water Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) access. Speaking at a roundtable over the weekend, the Special Adviser on Environment, Engr. Olakunle Rotimi-Akodu said work has started on some of the toilets including identifying the locations for them. He stated that the State government will adopt the three-way approach in tackling the issue of open defecation, which is to put infrastructure in place, engage in massive advocacy and lastly, undertake an enforcement d...

 OSI-MAN UNITED! Victor Osimhen in stunning swap transfer proposal


Marcus Rashford is at the centre of a stunning swap deal involving Napoli striker Victor Osimhen.

The Ā£60million-rated Manchester United forward has snubbed three offers from Saudi Arabia ā€” worth up to Ā£675,000 A WEEK ā€” because he wants to win back his England place.

A move to another European club would give Rashford a platform to do that with Napoliā€™s former Tottenham boss Antonio Conte looking at a deal for the disillusioned star.

Under-fire United manager Ruben Amorim is desperate to strengthen this month and Conteā€™s interest in Rashford, 27, has opened the door to signing Osimhen.

The Nigerian ā€” who has a Ā£62m release clause ā€” is on loan at Galatasaray but United could land the 26-year-old this month. He has scored 65 goals in 108 Serie A matches for Napoli since joining from Lille in 2020.

Amorim would love to work with Sporting Lisbon forward Viktor Gyokeres again but agreed he would not sign players from his former club until the summer at the earliest.

The Portuguese is short of goal scorers and dropped Rashford over his ā€œstandardsā€ for the 2-1 Premier League derby win at Manchester City on December 15.

He has not played under Amorim for five games ā€” despite three straight league losses leaving United 14th and facing a relegation battle.

Rashford has been offered the chance to become the best-paid English player in history by clubs in Saudi Arabia more than doubling his Ā£315,000 weekly pay packet to Ā£675k. That Ā£35m-a-year offer is almost 70 per cent more than the Ā£400,000 a week that England skipper Harry Kane, 31, earns at Bayern Munich.

Catching the eye of the new England boss Thomas Tuchel is a priority for the 60-cap forward, who has not played international football since March.

Despite saying in December he is ready for ā€œa new challengeā€, it is understood he has not ruled out staying at Old Trafford where he is under contract until 2028. The club could do with a big windfall for home-grown Rashford as they look to comply with Profit and Sustainability Rules and give Amorim funds to reshape the squad.

United held interest in Osimhen last summer, while moves to Chelsea and Saudi fell through.
