BREAKING: The U.S. economy grew at an annualized rate of 3.4% in the third quarter, beating economists' expectations of 3.2%.
The stronger-than-expected GDP report comes as President Trump makes his final push on the campaign trail, with the midterm elections just days away.

I think we can now all agree that an era has indeed ended at Manchester United FC. The glorious days are well over and the club is painfully irredeemable at this point

Around Q3 last year, I met with the Chairman of the Ondo State Information Technology Agency @MrTomide to discuss bringing blockchain education into secondary schools across Ondo State.
The goal was simple give young people early exposure to blockchain and help them understand the opportunities it holds. We discussed working with the Ministry of Education to make this happen.
Now, seeing Nigeria launch its National Blockchain Education Programme is encouraging.
At @TeensBlockchain, we believe young people should be part of this digital future, not just hear about it.
We look forward to supporting this initiative and helping more young Africans learn, build, and explore opportunities in blockchain.
The future starts with what we teach them today.

But jokes aside, man, huge credit to Arsenal.
The PSG I watched today? Every single time they went forward, it looked like they were about to score. I nearly pissed in my pants.
Arsenal man, take your flowers. Holding this PSG to just a penalty is impressive. FairPlay
😊😊😊😊
Until you run for office you will not understand why Nigerian politicians that get into office are heartless and ruthless!
The heartless and ruthless (plus entitled) billing from citizens when you are running for office is enough!
I have asked repeatedly, do we have the moral justification to tell elected politicians not to loot? We say they must use their money. We even bill them heartlessly and we wonder when they get in and start recovering the money they spent plus profit!
And they also loot for future spendings.

Dear friends, during some recent medical examinations, the doctors found a small, localized nodule in my lung. It was detected at a very early stage and is well-localized. The doctors believe that it is best to intervene, so, following their advice, I have decided to undergo surgery to remove it. The operation is already scheduled to take place in the coming days. I thank you for your spiritual closeness and entrust myself to your prayers.

My salute to the Indian pilot Captain Smit Machchhar for his extraordinary bravery.
Despite being stabbed and seriously injured, he fought back, resisted, opened the cockpit door, and enabled passengers and crew to overpower the attacker — preventing a catastrophic mid-air disaster.
He saved the lives of 174 people, including Israeli citizens and other nationals.
I wish Captain Machchhar a speedy and full recovery.
He is a true hero.

VIDEO: Nigeria Records First Tele-Robotic Surgery As Surgeon Operates On Abuja Patient From Ogun
Nigeria has recorded its first tele-robotic surgery, with a surgeon remotely performing a complex kidney cancer operation on a patient in Abuja from Mowe, Ogun State.
The procedure, a robot-assisted right radical nephrectomy to remove a cancerous kidney tumour, was conducted by Redeemer’s Health Village in collaboration with RoboMed Global. The surgeon operated the robotic system in real time from a Toumai console at the facility in Ogun State, while the patient was at Nisa Premier Hospital in Abuja, about 500 kilometres away.

OLUDOTUN BAIYEWU JACOBS, MFR (1942–2026): A Tribute to the Godfather of Nollywood
If you ever grew up watching Nollywood movies, you probably remember Olu Jacobs as the actor who could keep you glued to the screen.
But the man we remember today was much more than a familiar face on screen. From discovering acting at a concert party in Kano to training at RADA, performing on the West End and eventually helping shape Nigeria’s film industry, Olu Jacobs spent decades defining what discipline, craft and excellence could look like.
He mentored a generation, inspired countless actors and left behind a legacy that will remain part of the story of Nigerian cinema.
As we remember Olu Jacobs, we look back at the journey that made him one of Nollywood’s most respected figures.
