Galatasaray manager Okan Buruk has confirmed that Victor Osimhen is fit and available for selection ahead of the Turkish club’s UEFA Champions League clash with Atletico Madrid.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

The Turkish side will host Diego Simeone’s team at RAMS Park on Wednesday night. Osimhen has returned to full training following his international duty with Nigeria at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON).

The 27-year-old striker had sparked fitness concerns after limping off during Nigeria’s semi-final defeat to hosts Morocco, which also ruled him out of the Super Eagles’ third-place match against Egypt.

However, Buruk reassured fans, revealing that Osimhen has already reintegrated into the squad since returning to Turkey.

“Osimhen joined the squad yesterday [Monday, January 19]. He trained with us, and it was a good session,” Buruk said ahead of the game.

Off the pitch, Osimhen attracted attention online after Nigeria’s third-place win over Egypt at the Stade Mohammed V. He, alongside Paul Onuachu, Wilfred Ndidi, and Chidozie Awaziem, was seen leaving the mixed zone after removing their Super Eagles kits.

It was later reported that the four players flew from Morocco on a private jet to Lagos to attend the birthday celebration of Tunde Perry (real name Akinpelu Babatunde Adigun). Videos from the event showed Osimhen, Ndidi, and Awaziem enjoying the festivities, reflecting Perry’s close ties with the national team players.

The quartet later returned to their respective clubs following the celebration.

Senate President Godswill Akpabio has assured citizens that the federal government will soon overcome the nation’s security challenges through a renewed, proactive strategy by security forces.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

Speaking in support of President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda, Akpabio emphasized that safety is vital for economic growth, noting that no local business or foreign investor can thrive in an atmosphere of chaos. He highlighted that security agencies have transitioned from a reactive stance to taking the fight directly to the enclaves of criminals, bandits, and insurgents.

Key highlights from his address include:

  • Collective Responsibility: Akpabio stressed that military hardware alone cannot end criminality, urging citizens to partner with security agencies by providing timely and credible intelligence.

  • Economic and Banking Resilience: He declared that Nigeria’s banking sector has shifted from survival to absolute dominance, becoming one of the safest and most technologically advanced in Africa.

  • Reforms Yielding Results: He credited ongoing bank recapitalisation and financial reforms for ending the era where banks could suddenly collapse and cause depositors to lose their savings.

Ultimately, the Senate President maintained that a combination of proactive security operations, economic reforms, and civic cooperation will drive Nigeria’s path toward lasting recovery and national development.
