 El-Rufai’s Family Protests SSS Detention, Alleges Torture, Medical Neglect Former Kaduna State Governor Nasir Ahmad El-Rufai has continued to face controversy over his detention, as members of his family and supporters staged a protest in Abuja on Monday over his custody by the State Security Service (SSS). The demonstrators, which included Senator Lawal Adamu and close relatives of the former governor, accused security authorities of subjecting him to psychological pressure and denying him access to medical care despite existing court directives. Speaking outside the SSS facility, El-Rufai’s second wife, Asia, said the family had been living under fear due to what she described as persistent surveillance and security intimidation connected to the case. According to her, the tension increased after El-Rufai appeared before Justice Joyce Abdulmalik of the Federal High Court in Abuja, where he was granted bail before the matter was adjourned.  She alleged that despite prior arr...

JAMAICAN COACH THRILLED WORKING WITH AMUSAN. (PHOTO).


 Jamaican coach thrilled  working with  Amusan


Foremost Jamaican coach Glen Mills has expressed  admiration at the professionalism and  attitude of 100m Hurdles World record holder and 2022 World Champions, Tobi Amusan.

Amusan has  reportedly been training in Jamaica under Mills’ guidance since September, marking a new chapter in her career.

Mills, widely regarded as one of the greatest sprint coaches in history is famous for helping Usain Bolt achieve unprecedented successes, including world records in the 100m and 200m WITH eight Olympic gold medals and 11 World Championship titles. 

According to a Jamaican outlet, the athletics coach expressed his excitement at working with the Nigerian, stating  he’s  wowed with Amusan’s professionalism and commitment to excellence which he said, can propel her to greater heights.

 “It has been a joy working with her because she is a true professional,” Mills reportedly told Jamaica-based  SportsMax. “She brings a refreshing approach to her training. People think I don’t coach women, but I’ve worked with several, including Aleen Bailey, Cathy Rattray, and Kerron Stewart.”

Mills added: “She works very hard, she is conscientious, and I can see why she is the world record holder. She’s enthusiastic about her progress, and I’ve already seen improvements in her performance.”

The Nigerian star who  broke the  100m hurdles world record with a time of 12.12 seconds at the 2022 World Championships in Oregon, United States, 

was previously being coached by Jamaican Olympian Lacena Golding-Clarke until she  sought out Mills.

 “There were certain things she wanted us to work on, and it’s going well,” he said.

While there are reports of Amusan splitting with Golding-Clarke, the world record holder still celebrated her long-term coach and her husband in  November when she celebrated her induction into the University of Texas at El-Paso (UTEP) Hall of Fame.

With an unforgettable 2024 season, where Amusan failed to qualify for the final of women’s 100m hurdles at the Paris 2024 Olympics, the 27-year-old will hope to get her career on track when the new season starts.
