The enemies strike again: The government has been urged to step up efforts to protect the lives and property of the Tyoshim community in Gwer-West, Benue State, by the Forum of Tyoshim Academics (FoTA), which has denounced the ongoing bandit attacks on the community. The call was made on Saturday following an incident that resulted in a blood bath on the Tyoshim village. This was stated in a statement signed by Prof. John Anja, the national publicity secretary, and Prof. Patrick Ukase, the national president, on behalf of the forum. “Today marks another day of mourning, another black day etched…
In an exciting London derby at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Tottenham defeated 10-man West Ham 4-1 behind a brilliant second-half display led by Son Heung-Min. The home team had the better of the first half until Mohammed Kudus converted Jarrod Bowen’s cut back on minute eighteen. Tottenham kept attacking, and Dejan Kulusevski’s effort struck both posts before going over the line to give Tottenham a well-deserved equaliser just before halftime. After the break, Ange Postecoglou’s team really got going, scoring two goals in five minutes thanks to goals from Yves Bissouma and Jean-Clair Todibo’s own goal. On the hour, Son…

Beth Potter promises to give it her all in Saturday’s WTCS Grand Final matchup in Torremolinos in order to keep her global title. The British athlete concluded an amazing journey 12 months ago in Pontevedra, where she won the World Championship after converting from track running to triathlon. She would once again top the season rankings if the events of that day—Potter first and Cassandre Beaugrand third—were repeated. Olympic champion Beaugrand is aware, though, that winning first place will give her a first-ever crown. It’s all to play for, and despite a great season marked by several near-misses, Potter believes…

In order to improve performance and lead the Chiefs to new heights, the team will add two new players in January. After September’s 2-1…
It is accurate to say that Reverend Father Hyacinth Alia, the governor of Benue State, is leading the state in a restoration effort. Politics and political events attract a lot of attention in Nigeria, just as in other states, which contributes to the negative perception of politics there, where honour and integrity are routinely violated. It becomes intriguing that Fr. Alia would go to embark on a mission of rebirth for his state as a result. It certainly makes sense, considering former President Olusegun Obasanjo claimed that politics and religion are Nigeria’s two most profitable industries. The work of God,…
