Nigeria’s rotated Super Eagles side completed a perfect AFCON Group C campaign with a 3 1 win over Uganda in Fès, Morocco.

Super Eagles stars one booking away from AFCON ban

Four key Super Eagles players risk suspension ahead Nigeria’s final AFCON 2025 Group C match against Uganda. Victor Osimhen, Ademola Lookman, Semi Ajayi and goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali are all one yellow card away from missing the Round of 16.​ If Osimhen is booked in the Uganda game, coach Eric Chelle may be forced to start Paul Onuachu as striker in the first knockout match. Lookman, who has scored in both of Nigeria’s games so far, would also be ruled out of the next round if he receives another caution.​ Ajayi’s card situation could push Chelle to adjust his back line, possibly turning to Zaidu Sanusi to keep the defence stable. Nwabali, cautioned for time wasting against Tunisia, would be replaced by Francis Uzoho if he picks up a second yellow card.​ Nigeria have already beaten Tanzania 2-1 and Tunisia 3-2, […]

Nigerians recall harsh 2025 but hope for relief in 2026

Many Nigerians say 2025 was one of the hardest years in recent times, marked by rising prices, insecurity and deep uncertainty. In spite of this, they are looking to 2026 with cautious hope that living conditions will improve.​ In Owerri, some residents described 2025 as a year of crippling hardship, especially for people in small businesses and daily trading. A trader, Chinonso Nze, said the economic climate was poor and that surviving the year felt like a miracle for many families.​ He blamed the hardship on high inflation and worsening insecurity that made travel dangerous in many parts of the country. According to him, kidnappings and attacks on highways left commuters feeling unsafe and afraid to move freely.​ Nze also expressed concern about a new tax regime expected to take effect in 2026, warning that it could further strain already […]

Le Togo révise la fiscalité du gazoduc régional

Le Togo a procédé à un ajustement du régime fiscal applicable au gazoduc de l’Afrique de l’Ouest, une infrastructure stratégique qui contribue à l’approvisionnement du pays en gaz naturel. La réforme introduit plusieurs changements majeurs visant à adapter le cadre fiscal aux réalités économiques actuelles du projet. Premièrement, la période d’exonération fiscale accordée à la West African Gas Pipeline Company (WAPCo), opérateur du gazoduc, est prolongée de 60 mois supplémentaires. Cette mesure porte la durée totale de l’exemption à dix ans. Deuxièmement, le taux d’imposition de l’entreprise est revu à la baisse, passant de 35 % à 30 %, afin de s’aligner sur les dispositions fiscales en vigueur dans les autres pays partenaires du projet. Enfin, le nouveau cadre prévoit une plus grande flexibilité pour l’État togolais, qui pourra relever ce taux en fonction des conditions économiques, sans toutefois dépasser […]

Expert urges FG to adopt AI to transform public service

Data scientist Gbolahan Temilorun has called on the Federal Government to make Artificial Intelligence a core part of ongoing public service reforms, arguing that it can boost efficiency, transparency and citizen engagement across ministries and agencies. He said rising public expectations, rapid population growth and limited resources mean Nigeria must embrace smarter ways of governing or risk falling behind countries already modernising with AI.​ Temilorun explained that AI refers to computer systems capable of tasks such as decision making, pattern recognition and language processing, which can help governments respond faster and allocate resources more effectively. When embedded in public service delivery, he noted, AI can reduce delays, improve accountability and cut back on manual, fragmented processes that slow down service to citizens.​ One immediate use case he cited is intelligent digital reporting platforms that allow citizens to report damaged roads, […]
