SLIDESHOW: The Weekend in Pictures

An audio leak purported to be of a phone call between Peter Obi and Bishop David Oyedepo went viral over the weekend and got Nigerians talking.

In the audio, a voice that sounded like that of the LP presidential candidate could be heard asking the bishop to talk to Christians in the South West and in Kwara State to support his bid.

On Sunday, the presiding bishop of the Living Faith Church Worldwide denied ever campaigning for any politician. 

Christians around the world celebrated Palm Sunday and the prime minister of Finland, Sanna Marin, lost her re-election battle in a close race.

It was a big sports weekend that saw British-Nigerian boxer, Anthony Joshua, defeated Jermaine Franklin to win his first since 2020. 

And just like Franklin, Englishman, Graham Potter lost his battle to remain the manager of 11th-placed Premier League side, Chelsea.
