San Siro Set for Partial Demolition as Milan and Inter Move Forward with New Stadium Plans

Fola Badmus02 mins

Milan, Italy — The iconic Stadio Giuseppe Meazza, more commonly known as San Siro, is set to be largely demolished following approval for AC Milan and Inter Milan to purchase the land where the stadium stands. However, a portion of the historic structure will remain intact. According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the South-East corner of the stadium — including part of the ‘Curva Sud’ and the ‘orange’ stand — will be preserved as a nod to the venue’s rich footballing legacy. Roberto Spagnolo, project coordinator for Atalanta’s new stadium, detailed the demolition process in an interview with Gazzetta. “Demolition is carried out with mechanical machinery,” he explained. “First, non-concrete elements such as glass, barriers, and doors are removed. Then, giant hydraulic shears are used to dismantle the main structure, and finally, the concrete is separated from the reinforcing steel.” Demolition will begin from the roof and third tier, proceeding downwards. The new stadium is planned to be constructed in the current parking area adjacent to the Meazza, allowing matches to continue at San Siro during the build. The full demolition of the existing stadium is scheduled for 2031 or 2032, once the new venue is completed and operational.

Senator Iyiola Omisore, a prominent figure in the All Progressives Congress (APC), has announced his intention to contest the 2026 governorship election in Osun State. Omisore, who previously served as deputy governor of Osun, shared the news on his X handle on Saturday, revealing that the formal declaration will take place on Tuesday, October 7, 2025, at the Osun APC Secretariat in Ogo-Oluwa, Osogbo. The launch, themed “Fix the Broken, Restore Our Dreams,” is scheduled for 10 a.m. “My beloved people of Osun State, after deep reflection and wide consultations, I have decided to formally declare my intention to contest for the Governor of Osun State in 2026 under our great party, the All Progressives Congress (APC),” Omisore wrote. He said his campaign will focus on restoring hope, strengthening governance, and securing a brighter future for the people of Osun. “This is not just my mission, it is a collective one. I humbly invite you to join me as we take this bold step towards the Osun Rescue Mission 2026,” he added. Omisore, who contested the 2014 governorship election under the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), is expected to be among the leading aspirants for the APC ticket. He served as deputy governor from 1999 to 2003 under the Alliance for Democracy and later represented Osun East in the Senate from 2003 to 2011, chairing the Senate Appropriations Committee. After losing the 2014 election to then-incumbent Rauf Aregbesola, Omisore briefly joined the Social Democratic Party for the 2018 election before moving to the APC in 2021. Thirteen months later, he became the party’s National Secretary following the withdrawal of his main rival at the national convention in Abuja.

Chelsea Beat Liverpool 2-1 At Stamford Bridge As Reds Suffer Third Consecutive Loss

Wale busari02 mins

Liverpool suffered a 2-1 defeat to Chelsea at Stamford Bridge, marking their third consecutive loss in all competitions and raising concerns over their Premier League form. Chelsea took an early lead in the 14th minute when Moisés Caicedo unleashed a powerful long-range strike. Liverpool responded in the 63rd minute through Cody Gakpo, who finished a clever setup from Alexander Isak to level the score. The Blues clinched the victory in stoppage time, with 18-year-old substitute Estevão converting a cross from Marc Cucurella. Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca was sent off for excessive celebration after the decisive goal. Despite missing several key players, Chelsea impressed with their resilience and creativity, particularly from Estevão and the other young talents in the squad. The win ends Chelsea’s recent poor run and intensifies pressure on Liverpool manager Arne Slot. The loss leaves Liverpool with growing concerns, having now dropped three consecutive matches, including defeats to Crystal Palace and Galatasaray, as the team struggles to regain its early-season momentum.

Goodluck Jonathan Denies Accusing Late Buhari Of Boko Haram Links, Says Comments Misrepresented

Wale busari03 mins

Former President Goodluck Jonathan has denied suggesting that the late President Muhammadu Buhari had any ties to Boko Haram, insisting that his comments were misrepresented. In a statement on Saturday, issued by his media aide Ikechukwu Eze, Jonathan said he never alleged, hinted, or implied that Buhari supported or was connected to the terrorist group. The clarification follows Jonathan’s remarks on Friday at the launch of Scars, a book by former Chief of Defence Staff Lucky Irabor. Jonathan had recounted that Boko Haram once listed Buhari among individuals they wanted to act as mediators in peace talks with the government. Jonathan, who served as Nigeria’s president from 2010 to 2015, explained that the insurgents’ mention of Buhari occurred after his administration had established committees to engage with the group. Former presidential spokesman Garba Shehu dismissed Jonathan’s account as “false and politically motivated.” Eze stressed that Jonathan’s comments were intended to highlight Boko Haram’s deceptive strategies rather than implicate Buhari. “Boko Haram often invoked the names of respected public figures without their knowledge to create confusion, exploit divisions, and undermine public confidence in government,” the statement said. Jonathan’s remarks, Eze added, were meant to illustrate the insurgents’ duplicity. He noted that if Buhari had truly been their chosen negotiator, Boko Haram’s attacks would not have persisted after he became president. The statement concluded by reaffirming Jonathan’s respect for Buhari’s commitment to fighting terrorism and said that both leaders shared a common goal of restoring peace and stability to Nigeria. Eze urged the public to disregard distorted reports, emphasizing that Jonathan remains committed to peace, unity, and strengthening democracy.

British Teen Freed From Dubai Jail Dies In Tottenham Car Crash

Wale busari03 mins

A British teenager recently released from a Dubai prison has died in a car crash in north London, just three months after regaining his freedom. Marcus Fakana, 19, was a passenger in a car that collided with a truck in Tottenham in the early hours of Friday. He was rushed to hospital with serious injuries but later died. The Metropolitan Police said officers had tried to stop the vehicle, but after a brief 60-second chase, they lost sight of it. The car was later found crashed into a truck. Fakana had been jailed in Dubai for having a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old girl when he was 18. He was granted a royal pardon by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum in July, allowing him to return to the UK. Radha Stirling, his lawyer and founder of the Detained in Dubai advocacy group, said Fakana had been “grateful for the compassion shown to him by the British public” and that the experience had given him “a renewed focus on Christianity and prayer.” She added he was “looking forward to building a positive future” after his release. The relationship came to light when the girl’s mother discovered messages between them after returning to the UK and reported it to authorities. Stirling said Fakana’s time in prison had caused “long-lasting mental anguish,” and noted he had only been free for three months before the crash. Marwaan Mohamed Huseen, 19, of Argyle Road, Tottenham, has been charged over the crash. He faces multiple charges, including causing death by dangerous driving, driving without insurance or a licence, and failing to stop. He is due to appear at Highbury Corner Magistrates’ Court. The Metropolitan Police’s Directorate of Professional Standards and the Independent Office for Police Conduct have been informed about the incident.

Wale busari01 mins

Arsenal secured a comfortable 2-0 win over West Ham United in a Premier League London derby on Saturday, October 4, 2025. The victory also marked Mikel Arteta’s 300th game in charge of the Gunners. Declan Rice, facing his former club, opened the scoring in the 38th minute by tapping in a rebound after Eberechi Eze’s shot was saved. Bukayo Saka extended Arsenal’s lead in the 67th minute, converting a penalty awarded after a foul on Jurriën Timber. West Ham struggled throughout, failing to register a single shot on target. The win lifted Arsenal temporarily to the top of the Premier League table with 16 points from seven matches, ahead of Liverpool. However, the celebrations were tempered by injuries to captain Martin Ødegaard and goal-scorer Declan Rice, both forced off during the match.

Manchester United Beat Sunderland 2-0 At Old Trafford To Secure Third Straight Home Win

Wale busari02 mins

Under-pressure Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim celebrated his 50th game in charge with a vital 2-0 win over Sunderland at Old Trafford. Mason Mount set the tone early, scoring after just eight minutes — United’s fastest Premier League goal since Marcus Rashford netted in the second minute against Ipswich during Amorim’s debut last November. Benjamin Sesko added a second with a close-range finish, marking his second goal in consecutive games. United also kept their first clean sheet of the season, a boost for Amorim who entrusted debutant £18.1m goalkeeper Senne Lammens between the posts. Sunderland appeared to earn a penalty just before halftime, but VAR overturned the decision, confirming Sesko had not caught Trai Hume with a high boot as initially thought. After a difficult run, Amorim finally has some positive stats to reflect on. United secured a third straight home win for the first time in over two years and have lost only once to Sunderland in 31 home encounters. Amorim also became the first United manager since Sir Alex Ferguson to win his 50th game in charge. The victory prompted the home crowd to break into a spirited rendition of the ‘Ruben Amorim’ chant — a rare moment of comfort for the Portuguese coach amid mounting scrutiny over his future at Old Trafford.
