MAN CITY RETAIN PREMIER LEAGUE TITLE AFTER THASHING BRIGHTON

Manchester City held off a titanic challenge from Liverpool to become the first side in a decade to retain the Premier League title by coming from behind to beat Brighton 4-1 on Sunday.

A 14th straight league win ensured Pep Guardiola’s men pipped Liverpool by a solitary point as the Reds’ long wait to win the league continued despite a 2-0 victory over Wolves at Anfield that saw them post the third highest points tally in Premier League history.

City remain on course to complete the first ever domestic treble in English football in the FA Cup final next weekend as goals from Sergio Aguero, Aymeric Laporte, Riyad Mahrez and Ilkay Gundogan saw the visitors recover from Glenn Murray’s shock opener.

Aguero scored the sensational last-gasp goal that ended City’s own 44-year wait for the title in 2011/12 and his goals have been a constant of their now four Premier League triumphs in eight seasons.

David Silva’s wonderful flick freed the Argentine in behind the Brighton defence and Aguero made no mistake with a powerful low finish.

The brief shock of going behind sparked City into life as Mathew Ryan was then forced into saves at his near post from Bernardo Silva and Mahrez.

However, Brighton were undone from a simple set-piece when Mahrez’s corner found Laporte completely unmarked to head City in front seven minutes before halftime.

Brighton sacked manager Chris Hughton on Monday in what chairman Tony Bloom described as “one of the most difficult decisions” he had ever had to make.

Hughton leaves despite guiding Brighton to the FA Cup semifinals and retaining their Premier League status for a second successive season.

The decision may well have come as a shock to 60-year-old Hughton, who had spoken of his desire for players to bounce back from the final day 4-1 defeat by Manchester City on Sunday and other disappointing spells during the campaign.

PUBLIC PARTICIPATION CRY

Nairobi City County government is now on the spot for not conducting proper public  participation before rolling out projects to the residents.

Recently Nairobi Governor Mike Mbuvi Sonko gave out 8  water tanks per ward  but this has been rejected by some youth groups in Starehe and Mathare Constituencies who say they have enough water tanks.

According to them they were not involved  in the process and that the tanks are not beneficial to them.

‘‘Sonko did not ask us what we want before bringing this tanks,in fact we need TV and decoders not tanks.’’ said one of the youths.

Devolution  chief officer co-ordinating public participation in the county Jairus Musumba on the other hand turned the ball to the  public accusing them of not attending the public participation meetings.

‘‘We have tried  our best as county government but what we  must agree on is that the public response is low and sometimes it is difficult to conduct one.’’ Musumba noted.

Meanwhile  Muthurwa  Residents   Association Chairman  Patrick Kamotho  on the other  hand asked the county government  to carry out public participation per ward and not  sub-county as it is being done currently.

He further accused  Sonko’s administration for not considering wananchi’s views  when implementing projects and that most of the projects are doctored by the county officials.

In some occasions the MCAs  have been accused of  disrupting  such meetings and after  residents have been dispersed, they use orthodox means to pass their own agendas.

The rapper took to social media to fire shots at Diamond’s better half Tanasha who released her new jam “Radio” a few weeks ago.

According to Bey T, the phrase  “Kenya to the World” was originally hers and Tanasha stole it.

The upcoming rapper promised to release a diss tack on Friday aimed at Tanasha

“Someone tell Tanasha to stop wave riding”. She wrote

Tanasha responded to the upcoming artiste telling her that the phrase has been used so many times she cannot claim ownership for it.

“Too much hate in this world. Jealousy is a disease. They’ll start beef over a phrase they think they invented when it has been used by so many artists in the 254, What’s wrong with this world though? What happened to empowering one another?” she posed.

Hours after their exchange Bey T has released a dis track dubbed ‘Don to the Donna’ earlier than she promised.

In her latest diss track, Don to the Donna, Bey T throws shade at Tanasha Donna calling her a talent-less attention seeker, escalating what seemed like a small beef to a rather personal fight
