REVEALED: HOW MIDDLE EAST CONSORTIUM PLANS TO BUY & TRANSFORM ARSENAL’

A SENSATIONAL £1.5billion bid for Arsenal is being lined up by a powerful Middle Eastern investment group.
The consortium — which includes wealthy investors from Qatar and the United Arab Emirates — have been working on the deal for the last four months.

They will make their big move to majority shareholder Stan Kroenke in the next few weeks and aim to take Arsenal to the top of world football. The investors will offer Kroenke £20,000 per share for his 66.64 per cent stake in the Gunners.

That would net the American £830million — a profit of around £350m.
If Kroenke accepts, the same offer will be made to the other major shareholder, Alisher Usmanov, who holds 29.11 per cent.
The group want a total takeover of all the shares — although they believe it is possible to work with Usmanov if he decides not to sell.
They also plan to clear the club's debts of £250m, put separate funds aside for transfers and stop the sale of star players.
A source told SunSport: "These are serious investors with serious money. They are not messing about.
"Kroenke must realise it is time to get out

Abuja High Court declares President Jonathan eligible to run in 2015'

An Abuja High Court this afternoon ruled that President Jonathan is eligible to contest in the 2015 presidential election, if he wants to. A lawyer, Mr Cyriacus Njoku had filed a suit challenging the president's eligibility to contest in 2015.

Below is what the presiding judge, Justice Oniyangi, said in his ruling...
"After the death of Umar Yar'Adua, there was no election or bye election, President Jonathan was merely asked to assume the office of the President in line with Doctrine of necessity. He was not elected as the President but was made to assume office by virtue of Yar'Adua's death.
"Having exhausted the late President's tenure, he sought for his party's ticket and ran for the office of the President successfully in 2011 general election. He is therefore currently serving his first tenure of office and if he so wishes, he is eligible to further seek his party's ticket through the party's primary election and to run for office in 2015," , adding that President Jonathan's tenure as President started in May 29, 2011, when he took the oath of office and not on May 6, 2010, when he assumed office after Umaru Yar'Adua's demise.
