Senator Natasha Excluded From UN Women Conference, Replaced By Male Senator

Wale busari03 mins

Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan of Kogi Central has been removed from Nigeria’s delegation to the 70th session of the United Nations Commission on the Status of Women (CSW70) in New York, United States. The conference, which began on March 9 and runs until March 19 at the United Nations headquarters, focuses on advancing gender equality and improving access to justice for women and girls. Despite the event’s emphasis on women’s issues, Akpoti-Uduaghan was replaced by Senator Adeniyi Adegbonmire. The Kogi lawmaker had earlier raised concerns during a Senate Committee on Appropriations meeting on February 25, claiming she was sidelined after being initially invited by the Federal Ministry of Women Affairs. She reportedly submitted the requested photo page of her international passport within hours but was later informed that she could not attend because the details were allegedly submitted too late. Senator Ireti Kingibe, Chairperson of the Senate Committee on Women Affairs, had previously denied that Akpoti-Uduaghan was removed, explaining that she had recommended her for the delegation after two other female senators, Idiat Adebule and Ipalibo Banigo, declined the invitation. Kingibe had also assured Akpoti-Uduaghan that she would be included and would stay back if the Kogi senator could not go. In a letter dated March 5, Kingibe clarified that the Ministry of Women Affairs had not responded to requests for sponsoring delegation members. She further explained that the Senate eventually approved only two participants — herself and Senator Adegbonmire — for the trip. “For the sake of clarity, I can confirm that at this stage, only two members of the Senate have been officially nominated by the Senate President and have confirmed registration: myself, in my capacity as Chairperson of the Senate Committee on Women Affairs, and Senator Adegbonmire Adeniyi Ayodele, Chairman of the Senate Committee on Judiciary, Human Rights, and Legal Matters,” the letter stated. Kingibe apologised for any inconvenience and advised Akpoti-Uduaghan that she could still attend the conference personally if she already holds a valid United States visa.

Onigbinde Was An Extraordinary Achiever -NFF

Wale busari04 mins

The Nigeria Football Federation has described the passing of its former Technical Director and two-time Head Coach of the senior men national football team, Chief Adegboye Onigbinde, as “the exit of a great man who served Nigeria football wholeheartedly and was diligent and devoted to the development of the game.” NFF General Secretary, Dr Mohammed Sanusi, said the Modakeke high chief was “an extraordinary achiever who impacted positively not only on Nigeria football, but on the African and the global game at large.” He added: “Indeed, a big tree has fallen. Chief Onigbinde ate, drank, breathed, slept and lived football development. We will miss him greatly, as he was never tired of giving advice on the game’s development even at his ripe old age. We pray that God will grant him eternal rest, and also grant his family, relations, friends and the Nigeria football fraternity the fortitude to bear the big loss.” Respected globally for his deep knowledge of the game’s tactics and techniques, Onigbinde served as Technical Director of the Nigeria Football Federation, and also as Technical Adviser of the Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation, in charge of the country’s youth teams. He was for many years a technical advisor of the Confederation of African Football, and worked on countless Technical Study Groups of both FIFA and CAF at major championships. He started his coaching career in the 1960s, and rose to national consciousness in 1977, when he led Water Corporation FC of Ibadan to the quarter-finals of the African Champion Clubs Cup competition. Seven years later, he led Ibadan giants, Shooting Stars FC, to the final of the same competition. A quintessential teacher, educator and instructor, Chief Onigbinde was the first indigenous coach to lead Nigeria’s senior men national team to win a medal (silver) in the Africa Cup of Nations, achieving the feat with a team of rookies and few experienced performers in Cote d’Ivoire in 1984. The very cerebral tactician led the Super Eagles to the 2002 FIFA World Cup finals in Korea/Japan, where a melange of little-known names and experienced campaigners lost narrowly to Argentina and Sweden, and drew with England. He became the first indigenous manager of the Super Eagles at football’s flagship tournament, after Dutchman Clemens Westerhof (1994) and Serbian Bora Milutinovic (1998). Afterwards, he served as instructor and educator for the NFF, CAF and FIFA, devoting his time to training the trainers, for which he accumulated accolades from far and near.

U.S. Embassy Warns Of Possible Terror Threat Targeting American Facilities And Schools In Nigeria

Wale busari03 mins

The United States Embassy in Nigeria has raised an alert over a potential terrorist threat that could target American facilities and schools linked to the U.S. in the country. In a security advisory published on its website on Monday, the embassy said the notice was meant to notify U.S. citizens living in or visiting Nigeria about possible dangers and urged them to be extra cautious around American diplomatic locations and institutions connected to the United States. According to the advisory, American nationals should remain vigilant when visiting the U.S. Embassy in Abuja, the U.S. Consulate General in Lagos, and schools associated with the United States. “The U.S. Embassy in Abuja informs U.S. citizens of a possible terrorist threat against U.S. facilities and U.S.-affiliated schools in Nigeria. “The Embassy recommends that U.S. citizens take additional precautions when travelling to the U.S. Embassy, the U.S. Consulate General in Lagos, and U.S.-affiliated schools, to include varying times and routes.” The mission further encouraged U.S. citizens to change their travel schedules and routes, avoid predictable routines, and ensure their mobile phones remain charged for emergency situations. “Be aware of your surroundings, keep a low profile, review your personal security plans, vary your regular routes, keep your cell phone charged in case of emergency, stay alert in public places, avoid crowds and demonstrations, and familiarise yourself with emergency exits when entering buildings.” The embassy did not disclose where the threat originated from. The advisory comes as the United States recently issued broader global security warnings following attacks carried out by Washington and Israel against Iran, which has retaliated with missile and drone strikes targeting countries aligned with the U.S. in the region.
