Regina Daniels’ Mum Rita Cries Out Claiming Ned Nwoko Has Issued Arrest Warrant Against Her

Regina Daniels’ mother, Rita Daniels, has raised serious alarm after a WhatsApp message she allegedly sent to her daughter surfaced online, claiming that billionaire politician Ned Nwoko has issued an arrest warrant against her. Regina shared the screenshot of the message on her Instagram story, where her mother wrote in distress: “Ned has issued an arrest warrant against me. I should be arrested on or before Monday.” The message has since sparked outrage across social media, with many fans expressing concern over the escalating feud between the Daniels family and Ned Nwoko. This comes just days after Regina’s brother, Sammy West, was reportedly arrested by security operatives said to be acting on Ned Nwoko’s orders. The incident has triggered an online campaign calling for Sammy’s release and accusing Nwoko of using his influence to intimidate the family. Rita’s message suggests she fears becoming the next target, as she allegedly faces arrest following her son’s detention. Many Nigerians have flooded social media with messages of support for the family, urging authorities to intervene before the situation worsens. Earlier, Regina Daniels had posted a tearful video saying, “I’m trying,” a clip that now appears to reflect the emotional toll the crisis has taken on her. So far, Ned Nwoko has not issued any public response to the allegations, while the Daniels family continues to call for justice and the release of Sammy West.

Mexico President Claudia Sheinbaum To Press Charges After Being Groped During Public Event

Mexico City—President Claudia Sheinbaum has announced she will press charges after being groped during a public event near the National Palace, an incident that has drawn national attention to the ongoing issue of gender-based violence in Mexico. Video footage from the Tuesday appearance shows Sheinbaum addressing supporters when a man approached from behind, kissed her on the neck, and groped her. She quickly moved away as a member of her team intervened, and authorities have since arrested the suspect. Speaking at a news conference, Sheinbaum said she took action to protect all women in Mexico. “If they do this to the president, what will happen to all women in our country?” she asked, noting that the man had reportedly harassed other women in the crowd. Women’s rights organizations condemned the attack, calling it a clear example of entrenched misogyny in Mexican society. Mexico faces a persistent gender-based violence crisis, with nearly 98% of femicides going unpunished. Despite the incident, Sheinbaum vowed to continue her public engagements, emphasizing the importance of setting firm boundaries against harassment. The attack comes shortly after the murder of Carlos Manzo, mayor of Uruapan in Michoacán, highlighting ongoing security risks for public officials.

NFF Wraps Up CAF B-License Coaching Course

President of the Nigeria Football Federation, Alhaji Ibrahim Musa Gusau (MON) has charged participants at the CAF B-License coaching course to adroitly apply themselves to what they have learnt in the course of the programme that spanned over seven months and four modules. Gusau, who is also President of the WAFU-B Zone, made this exhortation in Abuja on Thursday at the closing ceremony of the coaching course. The first module of the course took place 7th – 12th April, while the second module commenced on Monday, 6th October and ended on 10th October. The third module took place 20th – 24th October, and the fourth and final module was implemented from Monday, 3rd November. “I take pride in our achievements thus far, and although we have a year remaining in our tenure, I remain hopeful that, by the grace of God, we will reach our intended goals. Since assuming office, we have facilitated the CAF B, CAF C and CAF D License programs. The CAF C was exclusively for women – an important step considering Nigeria’s prominence in women’s football across Africa,” he stated. He further emphasized the importance of involving former international players in these initiatives, highlighting, “We recognize the wealth of experience among our ex-internationals, and it is essential to harness their expertise within these programs. Additionally, by organising coaching instructor courses at the zonal level, we aim to create a sustainable model where coaches can receive training without the need to travel to Abuja.” Gusau also expressed his satisfaction upon receiving positive feedback from the CAF Education Officer, Mr. Honour Janza who noted the impressive level of commitment and professionalism displayed by the participating coaches throughout the program. The NFF President confirmed his administration’s intention to conduct a CAF A License coaching course before the end of his tenure in September next year. “We are diligently working with the technical department, coaches, and instructors to initiate the CAF A License course within the first quarter of the upcoming year,” he assured. Lastly, Gusau urged the coaches to apply their knowledge in practice, expressing a desire to see them represented in coaching roles in other African countries. “We aspire not only for our coaches to gain certificates but also to engage internationally, sharing ideas and knowledge. There are coaches, such as one from Tanzania involved in this course, whom we hope to see coaching in various clubs across Africa.” Among those present were the First Vice President of the NFF, Chief Felix Anyansi-Agu; General Secretary, Dr Mohammed Sanusi, MON; Deputy General Secretary, Dr Emmanuel Ikpeme; NPFL Chief Operating Officer, Mr. Davidson Owumi; Technical Director, Austin Eguavoen; NNL Chairman, Chief George Aluo; CAF Education Officer, Honour Janza; NFF Head of Education, Dr Terry Eguaoje; Coaching Instructor, Ambassador Henry Abiodun; Coaching Instructor, Mr. Abdulrafiu Yusuf; NFF Director of Media and Communications, Dr Ademola Olajire and; NFF Internal Auditor, Mr. Godson Iyere.
