There was a mix of drama and laughter in the UK during the recent Nigeria vs Ghana Unity Cup match, as many Nigerians in attendance couldn't sing the newly reinstated national anthem. Instead, they defaulted to singing the only version they knew — the now-replaced anthem, “Arise, O Compatriots.” As soon as the instrumental for “Nigeria, We Hail Thee” began to play, many Nigerians looked confused. Some burst into laughter, clearly unfamiliar with the lyrics. Rather than staying silent, the crowd collectively began singing “Arise, O Compatriots” to the tune of the new anthem. One Nigerian man was heard shouting in Pidgin English: “Wahala! Who sabi sing am? Na the one wey we know we go sing!” — meaning, “Problem! Who knows how to sing it? We’ll just sing the one we know!” The stadium echoed with laughter and amusement as the crowd embraced the old anthem, creating a light-hearted and humorous moment during the event.

A newly surfaced video has shed light on the tragic incident in Ibadan, Oyo State, where a 14-year-old boy was fatally shot by police officers during an operation that was initially intended to apprehend his father for a traffic offense. Earlier reports had suggested that the officers were chasing an alleged internet fraudster when a stray bullet struck the young student. However, the newly released footage contradicts this, showing that the incident actually involved a t task force consisting of personnel from the Oyo State Police Command and the Oyo State Traffic Management Authority (OYTMA). In the video, the officers are seen attempting to intercept a Black Honda Accord driven by Odunayo Alade, the boy’s father, who had reportedly flouted traffic regulations. As the car sped off in defiance of the officers' orders, a gunshot rings out. Voices speaking in Yoruba can be heard saying: “They should pursue him”, “let’s go”, “he can’t escape”, “he shouldn’t have gone.” Shortly afterward, the vehicle halts and bystanders gather at the scene. The boy is spotted lying motionless on the ground, with police officers surrounding him. Two men lift the boy, seemingly trying to place him back into the vehicle. Blood is visibly staining the pavement nearby. Amid the commotion, a voice from the crowd is heard asking: “Who fired the gun?” Meanwhile, a distressed man — believed to be the father — is seen gripping a police officer, apparently the one who fired the shot. He cries out in anguish: “Shoot me; you have to shoot me too.” Later that day, the Police Public Relations Officer, CSP Osifeso Adewale, issued a statement providing further details about the incident. According to him, the vehicle driven by Alade had violated traffic laws around 7:45 am near the Airport Roundabout in the Alakia axis of Ibadan. When officials attempted to stop him, he allegedly accelerated in defiance, colliding with two OYTMA vehicles and a Police Buffalo Patrol truck. The statement continues: “Rather than complying with lawful directives, the driver allegedly accelerated towards the enforcement team in an attempt to evade arrest, ramming into two OYTMA vehicles and a Police Buffalo Patrol truck.” To prevent additional danger to officers and other road s, barricades were set up to stop the fleeing vehicle. However, Alade reportedly broke through these barriers and continued driving in a reckless manner, posing risks to those around. During this pursuit, a police corporal discharged his weapon. The bullet pierced the rear of the vehicle and struck the boy, who was seated behind the driver. He was rushed to a nearby hospital but was unfortunately pronounced dead on arrival. The officer responsible for firing the shot has since been detained, and the authorities have launched an ongoing investigation into the matter.

A Nigerian lady has taken to social media to criticize Nigerian doctors and nurses, accusing them of negligence and a lack of empathy which she claims led to the death of her sister's husband. In an emotional video, she said: “Nigerian doctors, Nigerian nurses, you people can do better. It’s not fair. If you’re tired of the profession, please resign—just resign. They brought someone to you for treatment, someone under your care, but because of your nonchalant attitude, you ended up killing my sister’s husband. You’ve succeeded in making her a widow. I don’t understand—if you’re tired of being a doctor or a nurse, resign so we can know who the real professionals are among you. I really don’t understand how you can look at someone with a lifeless body and still show no sympathy—not for the person, not for the family. Instead, you talk to them anyhow. What is going on? You're just after the money—we know. We know you're after the money. But still, you can do better.” The video sparked emotional reactions from viewers, with many sharing their own heartbreaking experiences with healthcare professionals.

Charlotte Powdrell Breaks Down in Tears After Paying Israel Adesanya $500K Following Court Case Charlotte Powdrell and Israel Adesanya were never married and did not have children together. However, after Israel ended their relationship, Charlotte took him to court, demanding half of his estimated $15 million fortune. She argued that their one-year relationship was long enough for him to have married her. The court examined the case for over a year before finally ruling that Charlotte should receive half of Israel Adesanya’s wealth. But when his financial records were reviewed, it was discovered that Israel had a net worth of $0.00 and had never owned a bank in his entire life. Since Charlotte had a net worth of $1 million and was financially better off than Israel, the court’s ruling meant her own money had to be divided between them. As a result, Israel received $500K from her. Reports suggest that Israel Adesanya’s entire $15 million fortune is managed by his mother, Taiwo, who has handled his finances since the start of his career.
