Last update: 12 hours ago

U-17 Women’s World Cup Qualification: Nigeria’s Flamingos beat Benin 5-3 in Lomé to seal an 8-5 aggregate win and book a spot at the 2026 FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup in Morocco, with Queen Joseph scoring twice and completing a hat-trick. Local Election Pulse in Edo (Benin City): Edo’s local government election saw late arrival of voting materials and low turnout in some polling units, while some youths skipped voting to play football, citing weak political competition. Movement Restriction Ignored: Despite a police-imposed restriction from midnight to 6pm, residents, motorists and traders in Benin City and Auchi largely carried on with business and transport. UK Travel Rules: The UK reaffirmed visa requirements for Nigerians and nationals of 100+ countries for short stays under six months, updating its visitor immigration rules. Human Trafficking Awareness: NIDO launched a nationwide campaign in Makurdi to educate secondary school students on spotting and avoiding traffickers. Sports Note: South Africa’s Jayden Adams, a World Cup midfielder, died at 25.
