  The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) is set to hold an emergency meeting to address the uncertainty surrounding the future of Super Eagles head coach, Eric Chelle. According to sources, Chelle is considering terminating his contract as the team's manager. The development comes amidst Nigeria's struggles to qualify for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. With only seven points from six games, the Super Eagles are currently fourth in Group C, behind leaders South Africa, Rwanda, and Benin Republic. Pressure has been mounting on Chelle, prompting him to travel to Europe in search of reinforcements to bolster the team's defense. However, the uncertainty surrounding his future with the team has reportedly led to a change of heart, with Chelle now considering terminating his contract. The NFF's emergency meeting aims to address the situation and find a resolution. The fate of Chelle and the Super Eagles' World Cup qualifying campaign hang in the balance.

 Many Stranded As Boko Haram Abducts Passengers Along Maiduguri-Kano Highway


Suspected Boko Haram insurgents have abducted passengers along Maiduguri/Kano highway.


Sources told Daily Trust that the insurgents struck between Garin Kuturu and Mannanari village near Auno, which is along Damaturu highway at about 5:50:pm on Monday.


They reportedly blocked the highway before forcefully taking away some passengers.


The incident left hundreds of travelers and commuters stranded on both ends of the ever-busy road.


They had to return to Benishek and Auno respectively.


ā€œThere was an incident between Mannanari and Garin Kuturu where some Boko Haram fighters came out to block the upcoming vehicles and some passengers were abducted.ā€


ā€œWe are not sure of the number as we speak but certainly there was an abduction on Monday evening.ā€


Residents narrated how many commercial drivers took refuge in their community momentarily when the insurgents were operating between Garin Kuturu and Mannanari villages.


ā€œThey came out with three wheelbarrow and I believe they were looking for food stuff. We donā€™t know how many people abducted but some commercial drivers came back and later returned to Maiduguri before reinforcement of military arrived.ā€


A passenger, who craved anonymity, said he alongside others were stranded for hours.


ā€œWe were heading for Kano from Maiduguri when the driver got hinted about the attack and took a detour,ā€ he told Daily Trust.


ā€œWe have been waiting for the military to clear the road but we donā€™t know when. We are stranded here.ā€
