Gernot Rohr Returns To Management

Latest entertainment gist

Former Super Eagles head coach Gernot Rohr has signed a three-year contract to take charge of the Benin Republic national team. The Franco-German coach will be unveiled by the Benin Football Federation during a press conference scheduled for Friday, according to La Nouvelle Tribune.

Gernot Rohr will replace former Benin international Moussa Latoundji, who has been in temporary charge of the Squirrels.

The 68-year-old was sacked by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) in December 2021, despite helping the Super Eagles qualify for the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations and guiding the team to the final qualifying round for the 2022 FIFA World Cup.

Gernot Rohr has previously managed the Gabon, Niger Republic, and Burkina Faso national teams. His immediate task will be to help Benin qualify for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.

The German tactician, who was appointed as the Super Eagles coach in August 2016, had a successful stint with Nigeria, leading the team to the 2018 World Cup in Russia. However, his side failed to progress beyond the group stage.

Under Rohr’s guidance, Nigeria finished third at the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt, losing to eventual champions Algeria in the semi-finals before beating Tunisia in the third-place play-off.

The new appointment will be a fresh start for Rohr, who will be expected to use his vast experience to take the Benin Republic national team to new heights.

Why I didn’t use my mother’s illness as a strategy – BBNaija All Stars’ Uriel

Latest entertainment gist

 

BBNaija All Stars Uriel Oputa has revealed why she didn’t use her mother’s illness as a strategy in the house.

In a recent interview on Channel’s Rubbin Minds, Uriel said it would be predictable and it will not speak well of her especially since she has other talents to showcase in the house.

She revealed that she had spent 10 years of her life as a carer for her mother who suffers from dementia.

When I said initially that I have gone through a lot, I was actually talking of mother. I spent ten years of my life being a carer. So, this is just a little icing on the cake.

“Not bringing my mother full front in the House was a decision I made before I went in because I just thought that it will just be too predictable.

“People would be like, ‘Oh! Why is she using her mother to get sympathy votes?’ And, I feel like there is so much about myself and I have so much talents whether it is cooking… I found out in the House that I have such stage presence whether it’s theatre, I’m able to project myself in a good manner.

“So, there is so much more to Uriel than just her mother. And I wanted to show that I’m cook. I’m also into fitness. I can sing. I’m well-rounded.

“And that was a decision I made not to bring my mother into the equation they have known that side of me. They’ve known it for six years. This is a fresh start so let me show you things you might not know of me.”
