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.

ENTRY AGE LIMIT: LAGOS DEBUNKS VIRAL REPORT ON SOCIAL MEDIA


The Lagos State Ministry of Education has debunked a social media report alleging that the State Government will, from next academic session, enforce the entry age of 12 years for pupils seeking admission into Junior Secondary School (JSS1) in a bid to deter underage registration.


A statement signed by the Commissioner for Education, Mrs. Folasade Adefisayo, noted that the unsigned and undated document about the age limit for Junior Secondary School entrants had earlier been denounced in Y2020 when it was first circulated.


The Commissioner maintained that such statement was never issued by the State Government, stressing that what was wrongly published and circulated was not a policy statement, but an internal memorandum containing suggestions and a summary of discussions that was drafted after a consultative meeting.


She explained that the said meeting was held with relevant stakeholders in the Education Sector in Y2020 on how to implement the National Policy on Education in the State, which was clearly stated in a press release issued by the Ministry in April, 2020.


Describing the perpetrators of the social media report as saboteurs, Mrs. Adefisayo urged the general public to ignore the viral statement and rest assured that the Ministry will always involve stakeholders in policy decisions and implementation.
