The Super Eagles of Nigeria have been drawn in Group L alongside Madagascar, Guinea-Bissau and Tanzania for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.

This means only one other team from Group L will join Tanzania at the finals. The top two teams from each group normally qualify but the co-host rule changes this. The Super Eagles will face the Taifa Stars of Tanzania the Barea of Madagascar and the Djurtus of Guinea-Bissau. Former Nigeria captain William Troost-Ekong said away form will be crucial in the qualification race. The group stage […]

Sawe makes history with sub-two marathon

The London Marathon witnessed a historic breakthrough as Sabastian Sawe delivered an extraordinary performance that redefined marathon running. The 30-year-old Kenyan claimed victory with a time of 1:59:30, becoming the first athlete to complete a marathon in under two hours during an official competitive race. His time beats the previous record set by Kelvin Kiptum in 2023 (2:00:35) by more than a minute. Before this, only Eliud Kipchoge had broken the two-hour barrier in 2019, but that performance was achieved under controlled conditions and was not officially recognized. Sawe’s run is therefore the first sub-two-hour marathon in a standard race setting. Sawe was already on record pace at the halfway mark, passing in 1:00:29. He maintained strong momentum in the second half and made a decisive move in the final 10 kilometers to secure his lead. Yomif Kejelcha was the […]

Kenya open to 2027 AFCON delay over election tensions

Kenya’s local organising committee says it would welcome a postponement of the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations because of likely election related tensions in the region. Committee chair Nicholas Musonye told AFP that shifting the tournament to 2028 would be good for Kenya as the country heads toward general elections in August 2027.​ Musonye noted that past polls in Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda have been marked by volatility and violence, raising concerns about guaranteeing security for a major continental competition.
