UK Bans 100 Occupations from Foreign Recruitment to Reduce Migration

The UK government has introduced significant restrictions on foreign recruitment, barring over 100 occupations from being filled by international workers in a bid to reduce net migration. The new policy, unveiled by the Home Office on X (formerly Twitter) Saturday morning, is aimed at prioritizing job opportunities for British workers while reshaping the country's visa system. “Cutting net migration means getting the fundamentals right. More than 100 occupations are no longer eligible for overseas recruitment, opening up more jobs for British workers. A fairer, skills-focused system is now taking shape,” the statement read. This latest move is part of Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer’s broader strategy to address migration, following his Labour Party's landslide victory in the 2024 general election, where he succeeded Rishi Sunak. Job Sectors Affected The occupations affected by the ban include roles in hospitality, logistics, healthcare […]

FG to Commercialise Technical Volunteers Scheme – NTAC DG

The Federal Government is preparing to commercialise the Nigerian Technical Aid Corps (NTAC) volunteer programme, according to the agency’s Director-General, Dr. Yusuf Yakub. Yakub disclosed this on Friday in Abuja during the deployment exercise of 20 Technical Aid Corps (TAC) volunteers, made up of doctors and nurses, to The Gambia. He explained that commercialising the scheme will not only help partner nations fill professional gaps but also address Nigeria’s unemployment challenges by engaging young experts who are currently underutilised. “We have an abundance of unemployed youths in Nigeria and several skilled professionals who are not fully engaged, while the world is in need of experts to fill gaps,” Yakub said. He noted that the performance of Nigerian volunteers in the past had earned the programme international credibility, citing Jamaica’s recent request for 400 Nigerian professionals as an example of growing […]

US blocks visas for Palestinian officials ahead of UN summit

The United States announced on Friday that it will refuse visas to Palestinian Authority officials planning to attend next month’s United Nations General Assembly in New York. The move comes as France leads an international push to recognize a Palestinian state. The decision marks a significant escalation by President Donald Trump’s administration, which has consistently aligned itself with Israel’s government. Israel strongly opposes Palestinian statehood and has sought to equate the West Bank-based Palestinian Authority with Hamas in Gaza. “Secretary of State Marco Rubio is denying and revoking visas from members of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) and the Palestinian Authority (PA) ahead of the UN General Assembly,” the US State Department said in a statement. The department accused Palestinian leaders of undermining peace efforts by turning to international courts instead of direct negotiations with Israel. It said the PA […]

West Ham reject loan move for Man United’s Andre Onana

West Ham United have turned down the chance to sign Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana on loan, according to reports from The Guardian. The Hammers are in search of a new goalkeeper after summer signing Mads Hermansen, brought in from Leicester City, failed to impress in his early games. However, the club does not see Onana, who has lost his place at Old Trafford, as an upgrade on their current options. Onana, 29, was dropped by United manager Ruben Amorim this season, with Altay Bayindir preferred as first-choice. Although he returned for United’s Carabao Cup clash against Grimsby Town, he struggled again—misjudging a cross for the Mariners’ second goal. United went on to suffer a shock exit, losing 12-11 on penalties after a 2-2 draw. West Ham remain focused on other targets. The club is in talks with Hull City […]
