Stakeholders Demand Probe After Nigeria’s World Cup Bid Fails

Football stakeholders in Nigeria are demanding an urgent investigation into the failings of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) after the Super Eagles’ campaign to qualify for the 2026 FIFA World Cup ended in defeat to DR Congo. Allegations of corruption and poor management have surfaced, with ex-internationals Harrison Jalla and Adegoke Adelabu insisting the sport needs a complete overhaul. Nigeria missed the 2022 and now 2026 tournaments despite the government allocating N1 billion for the recent playoff, and players reportedly went on strike over unpaid allowances. Critics say the NFF lacks transparency and accountability, running “like a cult.” They urge President Tinubu to dissolve the current board, probe the failed campaign, and initiate serious reforms. Adelabu called for a panel to evaluate the failures and recommend fixes, while Theodore Chukwuemeka bemoaned Nigeria’s absence from the World Cup, calling it a […]

Nicki Minaj Tells UN: Christians in Nigeria Driven From Homes, Killed

American rapper Nicki Minaj spoke at a United Nations event, claiming Christians in Nigeria are being forced from their homes and killed, echoing recent warnings by former US President Donald Trump. Minaj called attention to burned churches, shattered families, and communities suffering from religious violence. She emphasized that her message was meant to spotlight victims, not to divide, saying, “This is not about taking sides or dividing people, but uniting humanity and standing against injustice.” Minaj also thanked Trump for his leadership on the issue and praised Nigeria’s deep faith traditions and her local fanbase.

Fears of One-Party Dominance Rise as Violent PDP Crisis Threatens Democracy

Fears of One-Party Dominance Rise as Violent PDP Crisis Threatens Democracy Nigeria’s democracy faces mounting threats as violent scenes at the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) headquarters expose deepening rifts within the opposition. The struggle between Makinde-Bala Mohammed leadership and the Wike-backed faction resulted in the storming of the party secretariat, tear gas confrontations, and journalists injured in Abuja.

Argentine President Accused of Crypto Fraud in $LIBRA Scandal

Argentine lawmakers accuse President Milei of fraud over the $LIBRA crypto scheme as investors suffer losses.

Tuggar Debates Genocide Claims With Ex-Canadian Politician on TV

A heated exchange occurred on Piers Morgan’s show as Nigeria’s foreign affairs minister, Yusuf Tuggar, debated with former Canadian lawmaker Goldie Ghamari over claims of mass persecution of Christians in Nigeria. Tuggar rejected figures that claimed over 50,000 Christians have died since 2009, saying official data does not classify victims by religion and all lives are valued equally. He reported that in the past five years, 177 Christians had been killed and 102 churches attacked, countering higher numbers from international groups.

She criticized the Muslim identities of Nigeria’s president and vice president as problematic, but Tuggar dismissed her remarks, highlighting that Nigeria’s priority is national unity, not faith. Tuggar spoke of his own family’s loss to Boko Haram attacks and stressed […]
