 High stakes in Morocco showdown as Nigerian billionaire puts $500,000 on the line. Nigerian billionaire Abdul Samad Rabiu has pledged significant cash bonuses to motivate the Super Eagles ahead of their Africa Cup of Nations semi-final clash against host nation Morocco. Rabiu, Chairman of BUA Group, announced a $500,000 reward for a victory, with an additional $50,000 promised for every goal scored in the match. The pledge was disclosed in a message posted on X following Nigeria’s 2–0 victory over Algeria in Marrakech, a win that secured the Super Eagles a place in the last four of the tournament. Rabiu further revealed that he would reward the team with $1 million if Nigeria goes on to win the AFCON title, alongside a bonus of $100,000 for each goal scored in the final. Nigeria, three-time AFCON champions, will take on Morocco on Wednesday, January 14, as the tournament enters its semi-final stage.

 Akpabio Summons Emergency Senate Meeting Of ‘National Importance’


The Senate President, Godswill Akpabio has called for an emergency meeting of the Senate.


A circular seen by MAGIC FM and signed by the Clerk, Chinedu Akubueze on Monday, said the meeting was of “National Importance”.


The internal circular did not give further details on the emergency meeting.


The meeting will be held on Wednesday, July 31, 2024, just one day before the commencement of the nationwide planned protest against hunger and hardship.


The memo wrote, “Dear Distinguished Senators, the President of the Senate, His Excellency, Senator Godswill Obot Akpabio, GCON, has directed that an emergency plenary sitting of the Senate be convened as follows: Date: WEDNESDAY, JULY 31st, 2024;  TIME: 12 NOON.


“Distinguished Senators are requested to make all necessary arrangements to attend as issues of national importance will be discussed. We regret all inconveniences that this interruption of the recess will cause. Thanks for your usual understanding.”


It would be recalled that the National Assembly had commenced a seven-week recess and was expected to reconvene on September 17th, 2024.


The recess was announced after the plenary last week Wednesday.


Both chambers of the Assembly – Senate, and House of Representatives, were supposed to be on break for seven weeks which is their yearly recess.
