US Congress set to debate Trump’s Iran war powers

The United States Congress will this week debate and vote on resolutions seeking to limit President Donald Trump’s authority to continue military operations against Iran without explicit approval from lawmakers. Both the House of Representatives and the Senate are preparing separate but similar war powers measures, which would require Trump to seek congressional authorisation if he wants to expand or prolong the war beyond the 60 day window allowed under the 1973 War Powers Act. The push gained momentum after the US, working with Israel, launched major strikes that killed Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and other top officials, triggering Iranian missile attacks on US bases and allies across the Middle East. Democrats and a handful of Republicans argue that Congress, not the president, holds the constitutional power to declare war, and warn that Trump has steadily expanded executive […]

From Ojuelegba streets to world stages: Wizkid’s rise to global stardom

Wizkid’s journey from the streets of Ojuelegba in Surulere, Lagos, to global music superstardom is a story of raw talent, persistence and perfect timing. Born Ayodeji Ibrahim Balogun in 1990, he started singing in church and recording in small Lagos studios as a teenager, dreaming of breaking out of his modest background. His big break came after he signed with EME Records and released Holla At Your Boy in 2010, a hit that made him a youth favourite and earned him the Next Rated award at the Headies.​ Over the next few years, he built a strong fan base with back to back singles and tours across Nigeria and the diaspora, setting himself up for a defining moment in his career. That moment was Ojuelegba, the reflective anthem inspired by his hustle in Surulere, which connected deeply with Nigerians at […]

Iwobi screamer sinks Spurs as Fulham win deepens relegation fears

Alex Iwobi delivered a brilliant long range strike as Fulham beat Tottenham Hotspur 2–1 at Craven Cottage, piling more pressure on Spurs in the Premier League relegation battle. Fulham took the lead after just seven minutes when a deflected Oscar Bobb cross dropped to Harry Wilson, who smashed a volley past goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario from close range.

Iwobi then doubled the advantage in the 34th minute, taking a pass outside the box and driving a precise low shot into the bottom corner off the post to make it 2–0.​ New Spurs boss Igor Tudor made several changes in the second half and his side improved, with substitute Richarlison pulling a goal back in […]

Bonny Light hits 80 as US Israel strikes on Iran rattle oil markets

Nigeria’s Bonny Light crude has climbed to around 80 dollars per barrel as United States and Israeli strikes on Iran deepen tensions and disrupt energy trade routes. The price spike follows days of gains driven by fears that fighting involving Iran, a key Gulf producer, could choke shipments through the Strait of Hormuz, which handles about 20 percent of global oil flows. Traders and analysts said many tanker owners, oil majors and commodity houses have reduced or suspended movements of crude, fuel and liquefied natural gas through the narrow waterway, increasing demand for alternative grades like Bonny Light. Bonny Light, prized for its low sulphur content and suitability for gasoline and jet fuel production, has benefitted as buyers seek supplies less exposed to direct Gulf risks. The surge comes against the backdrop of Nigeria’s 2026 budget, which is benchmarked at […]

Israel strikes Hezbollah in Lebanon after attacks, widening Iran war

Israel has launched air strikes across Lebanon, targeting Hezbollah positions after the Iran backed group fired missiles and drones at Israeli territory in response to the killing of Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The Israeli military said it struck Hezbollah sites nationwide, including in the Shiite group’s stronghold in the southern suburbs of Beirut, as part of a broader campaign that also includes ongoing strikes on Iranian targets. Explosions rocked Beirut in the early hours, sending residents fleeing by car and on foot, while smoke was seen rising from areas hit in and around the capital. Israel said at least one projectile launched from Lebanon was intercepted, while others fell in open areas without causing major damage, and warned that it holds Hezbollah fully responsible for any escalation along the border. The strikes on Lebanon come as U S […]

Troops kill eight terrorists in Borno, seize RPGs, guns and armed drone

Nigerian troops have killed eight Boko Haram and ISWAP terrorists in separate clashes in Borno State and recovered heavy weapons, including rocket propelled grenades, rifles and an armed drone.
