The 47-year-old, who joined MC Oran as head coach in October 2024, led the team to two wins, one draw, and four losses during his tenure. Chelle’s contract included a clause permitting him to leave for a national team position, which he has now exercised following his appointment as the head coach of Nigeria’s Super Eagles.
His final game with MC Oran was a 1-0 victory over ES Setif in the Algerian Cup on Saturday.
In an Instagram post, Chelle expressed his gratitude to the club, its supporters, and the people of Algeria.
“After a beautiful adventure with MC Oran, I announce today the end of my journey with the club. This decision was not an easy one, but it was made in mutual respect and for the benefit of all parties,” he wrote.
“I wish you all the best for the future and will continue to follow the MCO with affection. Oran and the Mouloudia will always hold a special place in my heart.
“A huge thank you to the supporters for their passion, energy, and unconditional love for this legendary club. I am also deeply grateful to the Algerian people for their warmth and generosity, which have left me with unforgettable memories.”
Chelle will be officially unveiled by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) in Abuja on Monday. His first challenge as Super Eagles coach will be leading the team in the 2024 African Nations Championship, co-hosted by Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda.

Investigation into the Leaked Video
-
Court Directive: Following a complaint from the Director of Public Prosecution (DPP), Rotimi Oyedepo (SAN), regarding a video statement that surfaced on the social media platform of influencer “VeryDarkMan” despite a court-imposed restriction, Justice Joyce Abdulmalik ordered the Department of State Services (DSS) to conduct an inquiry.
-
National Security Concerns: The DPP characterized the leak as a national security risk that prejudices the ongoing judicial proceedings, noting the video had already surpassed 6,000 views.
-
Defense Stance: While defense counsel denied involvement in the leak, they held varying views on a probe; some welcomed an investigation, while others, like Sanusi Musa (SAN), cautioned against acting without formal evidence.
-
Judicial Ruling: Invoking Section 232(5) of the Administration of Criminal Justice Act, 2015, Justice Abdulmalik mandated the DSS to identify and bring any responsible parties before the court, noting that such prosecution would be handled separately from the main coup trial.
Trial Testimony and Bail Proceedings
-
Witness Testimony: A prosecution witness, an Army officer codenamed “DDD,” testified that the investigation was conducted by a multi-agency team—including the Army, DSS, DIA, and EFCC—and explicitly denied that the defendants were chained, coerced, or tortured during interrogation.
-
Defense Challenges: During cross-examination, defense lawyers challenged the interrogation process, specifically noting the absence of family members or legal representation during the suspects’ questioning; however, the witness stated no such requests were made by the defendants.
-
Bail Applications: The court heard bail arguments from the defense, which the DPP opposed; Justice Abdulmalik has reserved her ruling on these applications and adjourned the trial-within-trial for the first three defendants until June 25 and June 30.

Deportation of Nigerian National: A Nigerian citizen named Ayodeji Ajayi has been deported from the United States following a series of criminal convictions, which include domestic violence.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
-
-
Immigration Status: According to a statement released by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) on their official account, Ajayi had been living in the US illegally for nearly two decades after failing to depart the country following the expiration of his student visa.
-
Criminal History: ICE reported that after abandoning his studies, Ajayi amassed a significant criminal record that includes convictions for domestic violence, trespassing, intimidation, and obstruction. Furthermore, his record includes charges involving kidnapping, rape, and family neglect.
-
Administrative Context: ICE attributed the removal of Ajayi to the immigration enforcement policies of President Donald Trump, noting the administration’s commitment to deporting criminal undocumented immigrants.
-
Missing Details: While the agency confirmed the deportation, they did not specify when it occurred, nor did they provide additional details regarding the jurisdictions of the convictions or the current status of his pending criminal charges.
-
Policy Enforcement: This action reflects the ongoing efforts by the Trump administration to intensify enforcement and increase the number of removals of undocumented individuals with criminal backgrounds across the United States.

“It Wasn’t Illness”: Gen. Rabe’s Widow Shatters Silence, Exposing True Cause Of Husband’s Death In Captivity.
-
While the Katsina State Government attributed the retired general’s death to complications from diabetes and hypertension, his widow, Hajiya Amina Abubakar, reportedly disputes this.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

-
Sources close to the widow during her hospitalization state that she insisted her husband was healthy and had no history of either condition prior to their abduction.
-
Hajiya Amina recounted that the General’s health declined rapidly after his leg became swollen.
-
The widow believed the General had been bitten by a snake, an assessment the kidnappers reportedly confirmed to her.
-
Despite the captors applying local herbal remedies to the swelling, the General’s condition worsened, and he ultimately passed away in his wife’s arms.
Context of the Abduction and Rescue
-
Major General Rabe and his wife were abducted on May 30, 2026, while traveling through the Matazu Local Government Area of Katsina State.
-
The kidnappers, linked to a criminal network led by bandit kingpin Kachalla Muhammad Fulani, had demanded the release of detained associates.
-
Following the General’s death, military troops from Operation Fansan Yamma intensified search-and-rescue efforts.
-
During an encounter near Tunga Village, troops engaged the bandits, who shot Mrs. Abubakar before abandoning her and fleeing the area.
-
Security officials are currently investigating the possibility of intelligence leaks or sabotage regarding the rescue operation, as the kidnappers appeared to be aware of the military’s movements.
