Henry: Arsenal not on PSG’s level
Henry, who featured in Arsenal’s only other final appearance in 2006, in which they suffered a 2-1 defeat to Barcelona, believes it is important this year’s vintage accept their position against Luis Enrique’s side.
“We’re not in a position to pick and choose. We’re not at the level of those guys yet so you’ve got to be humble with it,” Henry told CBS Sports.
“Hopefully we go there and be brave but we have to beat and battle against the champions so it won’t be easy, we know that.
I’m so happy that we’re in the final. We’ll see where we get against that team because that’s an outstanding team. You’ve got to stay in your lane…It’s going to be difficult. We didn’t concede a lot of goals, that counts for something, but Paris Saint-Germain have the experience of knowing what it is to win it.”
Henry, who later won the Champions League with Barca in 2009, added: “I woke up with a smile, they are about to do something that I couldn’t do myself.
“You want your team to win. I didn’t experience it as a player, the second thing I can experience it as is a fan. Hopefully it is going to happen.
“We’ve been pretty resilient, difficult to score against. We don’t over-create but when we do create, we end up putting the ball in the net.”
The Federal High Court sitting in Abuja has convicted former Minister of Power, Saleh Mamman, on a 12-count charge bordering on fraud and money laundering filed against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
Justice James Omotosho, who delivered the judgment on Thursday, held that the anti-graft agency successfully established the former minister’s culpability beyond reasonable doubt.
Mamman served as Minister of Power under former President Muhammadu Buhari.
The court found Mamman guilty of illegally diverting public funds amounting to about ₦33.8bn.
Justice Omotosho also held that the former minister made a cash payment of $655,700, equivalent to about ₦200m, for a property in Abuja without using any financial institution.
He was further convicted for criminal breach of trust linked to funds released by the Federal Government for the Mambilla and Zungeru Hydroelectric Power projects.
According to the court, much of the money was allegedly routed through Bureau de Change operators, who converted the funds into foreign currencies and handed them to the defendant.
Justice Omotosho said the prosecution presented overwhelming evidence against the former minister.
The evidence of the prosecution is overwhelming as against the scanty and almost absent defence of the defendant,” the judge said.
“The defendant did not offer any credible evidence to rebut the prosecution’s case.”
The judge criticised Mamman’s handling of the power sector, saying he failed to leave any meaningful legacy while in office.
“Rather than creating a legacy to tackle the epileptic power supply in the country, the defendant was living large at the expense of ordinary citizens,” Justice Omotosho held.
“Little wonder that Nigerians have remained in darkness till today.”
Mamman was absent from court when the judgment was delivered.
Following his conviction, the court deferred sentencing and the EFCC applied for a warrant of arrest against him.
Counsel to the defendant, Mohammed Ahmed, told the court that Mamman’s whereabouts had remained unknown since the notice for judgment was issued last Tuesday.
According to him, the former minister’s personal assistant later informed him that Mamman was ill.
The defence sought a postponement of the judgment, but the request was rejected by the court.
Justice Omotosho referred to reports indicating that Mamman had recently been involved in political activities, including purchasing a governorship nomination form in Taraba State.
Counsel to the EFCC, Rotimi Oyedepo (SAN), urged the court to proceed with the judgment.
“My Lord should go ahead. If the judgment is in his favour, we know what to do. If it is against him, we also know what to do,” Oyedepo said.
Mamman was arrested in 2021, months after he was removed from office by former President Buhari.
During the trial, the EFCC presented 17 witnesses and tendered 43 exhibits before the court.
The commission alleged that Mamman conspired with ministry officials to divert about ₦22bn meant for the Mambilla and Zungeru hydroelectric power projects.
According to the agency, investigations showed that part of the diverted funds was used to acquire properties within and outside Nigeria.
The court fixed Tuesday, May 12, 2026, for sentencing.

Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen, has reportedly settled a lingering financial dispute over a luxury vehicle lease, even as he missed out on a place in the latest list of the world’s 15 most valuable footballers.
According to reports, the Galatasaray forward cleared an outstanding debt of about €75,000 linked to the lease of a Mercedes-Benz vehicle from a Milan-based rental company, bringing an end to the misunderstanding surrounding the matter.
It was learnt that the striker was initially unaware of the unpaid balance on the contract. The issue has now been resolved, with reports indicating that the vehicle in question will remain in Germany following the settlement.
On the pitch, however, Osimhen continues to attract global attention despite his absence from the top tier of the latest valuation rankings released by the CIES Football Observatory.
The Nigerian international, who plays for Galatasaray, is valued by the Istanbul giants at around €150m, reflecting his status as one of the most soughtafter forwards in world football.
Former Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has resigned from the African Democratic Congress, ADC.
Obi made this known in a statement posted on his verified X handle on Sunday.
Let me state clearly: my decision to leave the ADC is not because our highly respected Chairman, Senator David Mark, treated me badly, nor because my leader and elder brother, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, or any other respected leaders did anything personally wrong to me. I will continue to respect them.
“However, the same Nigerian state and its agents that created unnecessary crises and hostility within the Labour Party that forced me to leave now appear to be finding their way into the ADC, with endless court cases, internal battles, suspicion, and division, instead of focusing on deeper national problems and playing politics built more on control and exclusion than on service and nation-building,” he wrote.
Frank Onyeka, the Nigerian midfielder on loan from Brentford, has captured the attention of fans not only with his impressive performance on the pitch but also with a heartfelt social media post that has gone viral.
Following Coventry City’s triumphant victory in the 2025/26 English Championship season, Onyeka took to Instagram to share a memorable moment with his family, accompanied by the caption, “No stress.”
The post features a photo of Onyeka with his partner and their son, radiating pride and joy after helping Coventry secure the title and seal their promotion to the Premier League.
Fans flocked to the comments section to express their admiration and congratulations. Many praised Onyeka’s dedication and professionalism, acknowledging how his efforts on the field translated into this historic win for Coventry.
“You’ve worked so hard, Frank! So proud of what you’ve achieved,” one supporter wrote. Others celebrated the personal side of Onyeka, appreciating the glimpse into his life outside football. “Beautiful family, Frank. You deserve this success,” a fan commented.
