  2027 elections: Your personal ambitions may hand Tinubu easy victory – Lukman warns Atiku, Obi A former National Vice Chairman (Northwest) of the ruling All Progressives Congress, Salihu Moh. Lukman, has warned that the unchecked personal ambitions of key opposition political figures would ultimately guarantee an easy victory for President Bola Tinubu and the ruling party in the 2027 general elections. Lukman, before now, consistently advocated the need for former vice president Atiku Abubakar, Mr Peter Obi and other opposition leaders to close ranks and present a formidable candidate against Tinubu, rather than the current fragmentation in the opposition landscape.

  FIFA scraps plan to sell off stake in World Cup FIFA President ‌Gianni Infantino  has scrapped plans to sell a ‌stake in the World Cup to private investors after a widespread backlash. Infantino had given football associations until September 19 to back his plan to sell off part of FIFA to private investors with a £30.1m ($40m) incentive to accept. FIFA had announced on Tuesday that it was seeking to launch FIFA Forward Enterprise (FFE), which would bring together the sale of FIFA's commercial rights - including broadcasting, sponsorship, ticketing and licensing - with the operational delivery of its tournaments. But the controversial proposals received fierce  criticism from  UEFA, CONCACAF  and the  Asian Football Confederation (AFC) , with  Prime Minister Andy Burnham  adding his condemnation by calling for "FIFA to undertake an urgent review of its governance". A statement from Infantino in the early hours of Saturday read: "The FIFA Forward...

  Don’t be fooled, states are not richer Most Nigerians are being fooled right now, as they often are, by the Federal Government; with regard to the monthly allocations to states. Unfortunately, because the hands of many of the State Governors are not clean, they are allowing the FG to blame them unjustly for overall poor performance.  Granted, there are a few outstanding performers – Lagos, Abia, Adamawa and Zamfara – but the rest of them have little to show for the increased revenue allocations. The fault is not entirely their own. The laws of economics don’t respect governments and their propaganda machines. “Truth is constant.” Promoters of FG propaganda are stretching a simple truth beyond breaking point. Nobody disputes the fact that the reforms embarked upon by President Tinubu will ultimately yield positive results if faithfully executed for the long-term. The benefits of such reforms are never immediate – even if early reports point in the right direction. States...
