Revealed: Manchester United's Robin van Persie's T-shirt goal tribute was to 'close friend' who died 24 hours before game - as Twitter goes mad speculating over who Tchuna was


Who is it? Van Persie lifting his club shirt to reveal a message which has sent the rumour mill into overdriveAfter netting his side's second and final goal in Manchester United's 2-0 home victory against West Bromwich Albion, star striker Robin van Persie revealed a tribute on a T-shirt.
In the hours after the game, mystery surrounded who the message 'R.I.P. Tchuna We Will Never Forget You' was relating to with a number of social networking websites and news sites and football forums speculating their own theories.
Manchester United Football Club have since contacted Mail Online saying that the message related to a close friend of the £24m man who had died 24-hours before the game.

We will remember: After scoring a fine individual effort for Manchester United, van Persie reveals his heartfelt message
Sky Sports have also reported the same line.
However, it appears Twitter and Facebook users refuse to be convinced by that information, and until the Dutchman reveals it himself, it seems the rumour mill will continue into overdrive.
Discussion on Twitter has led many to believe it is actually the name of the Indian girl who was gang raped and later died as a result of her injuries in a Singapore hospital.
While others have put forward the theory that it is the name of the Dutch linesman who was beaten and kicked to death while officiating at a junior football game in Holland.
The fact his name has been revealed as Richard Nieuwenhuizen may well dispel that theory.
For you: Van Persie is mobbed by his team-mates after scoring, but he manages to get his message across
Other theories put forward on Twitter is that 'Tchuna' was his grandpa, while some have posted that it was in fact the name of his hairdresser back in Holland.
Van Persie's agency SEG International have so far been unavailable to confirm the true identity of the mystery name.

MBINU ZA KUMFIKISHA MWANAMKE MWENYE MAKALIO MAKUBWA KILELENI KWA HARAKA

Kwa kawaida wanawake wanafikia kilele (mwisho wa utamu wa ngono) kati ya dakika ishirini na saa moja, yaani kwa kifupi inawachukua muda mrefu sana hali inayopelekea mpenzi mvivu kuchoka na ufanyaji wake utakuwa wa “ovyo” hali itakayo kufanya wewe kuishiwa na hamu ya kuendelea. Pamoja na kuchelewa huko ambako kunatokana na utofauti wetu kati ya mwanaume na mwanamke lakini nakumbuka hapo nyuma nilikutana na wanawake 2 waliokuwa ndani ya ndoa na wamezaa lakini hawajawahi kabisa kujua utamu wa tendo hilo alimaharufu kama “kufanya mapenzi”. Natambua kuwa ni ngumu au niseme si wanawake wote ambao wamejaaliwa kimaumbile kwamba wanafanikiwa kufika kileleni zaidi ya mara mbili kila wanapofanya mapenzi/ngono (kumbuka ni kati ya dakika 15 na saa moja hivyo Jibaba hapa awe na uwezo wa kujizuia kwa zaidi ya dk 45) na ikiwa jamaa ni “mzamiaji” basi unaweza ukaondoka na goli 3 ktk mzunguuko mmoja. Lakini kwa nini basi baadhi yao tu ndio wafike kileleni na wengine was...

Mushikiwabo to UN: Enhance civilian protection

By Eugene Kwibuka Rwanda’s Minister of Foreign Affairs and Cooperation has urged the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) to invest more energy in the prevention of conflicts for better protection of civilians living in conflict-torn areas.

The proliferation of non-state armed groups makes civilian protection both more urgent, and harder to achieve,” she said. For better protection of civilians in armed-conflict areas, the minister emphasised the need to increase investments in professionalising the military and police forces through adequate training. “Only when the leadership of armed forces shares the international...
