FIFA Introduces $60 World Cup Tickets Amid Fan Backlash FIFA has launched a new $60 “Supporter Entry Tier” for the 2026 World Cup in the US, Canada, and Mexico, covering all 104 matches. The tickets, aimed at fans of qualified teams, make up 10% of each national federation’s allotment. The move follows widespread criticism over high prices, with fan groups and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer calling the measure insufficient. FIFA said refunds will waive administrative fees for knockout-stage tickets if a team is eliminated early. The first ticket draw will be held on January 13, 2026.

AMBODE COMMISSIONS FIRST STATE-OWNED HELIPAD {HELICOPTER} FOR MEDICAL EMERGENCY IN NIGERIA.{PHOTOS}.

                        Lagos State Governor,Mr Akinwunmi Ambode today thursday commissioned the first state-owned Helipad for medical emergencies in Nigeria at the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital {LASUTH},Ikeja,adding that the upgrading of the 247-bed and five Theatre Suits for pregnant women,popularly called Ayinke House,would be ready for use by 2017.Governor Ambode,who also inspected medical facilities at the LASUTH complex,said as part of efforts to transform the health sector in the State for optimal performance,the Bola Tinubu Health and Diagnostic Centre will soon become operational,while approval had been granted for the rehabilitation,upgrade and bulk purchase of medical equipments required in 20 Secondary and 21 Primary health facilities across the State.''This Helipad being commissioned today is a lifesaving asset and critical complement to the efficient functioning of this Unit and other emergency services being rendered by the State.The Helipad will also aid the movement of patients from remote areas where healthcare facilities to provide the level of emergency medicine required are not reafily available.Over the years,we have witnessed emergency situations which require timely movement of victims to appropriate medical facilities.Keeping in mind that every minute matters in securing the lives of people involved in these incidents,the usual movement by roads is not the best option in such situations.Helicopters have therefore become an efficient and reliable option which can only be made possible with the availability of helipads within the hospital environment.Given the status of LASUTH,as the State flagship tertiary health institution,offering referral services for other public and private medical institutions,it was obvious the helipad had to be located here''.More photos below.
