The armed men sped off with his car. Shortly after, Fala villagers saw the three men and accused them of being Boko Haram members. They said the prof. was their leader and had given the vehicle to their members.

Going Out With A Bang: Pacquiao Might Retire After Mayweather Fight

Manny Pacquiao may plan to end his career on the highest of notes: handing Floyd Mayweather Jr. his only career loss.
“It is coming close. We will announce it,” the 36-year-old told local television network ABS-CBN with a meek smile when asked about retirement.
Pacquiao and Mayweather are set to meet on May 2 in what will be the greatest boxing match in years.
Pacquiao said he agreed to take a smaller cut of the purse just so the fight could push through.
“If we only thought about our pride, there would not be a fight. If we had equal pay, the fight would not have pushed through so for the fight to push through, I agreed to it,” he said.
Tickets for the MGM Grand showpiece sold out 15 minutes after they became available.
