 ALGON Rejects Suspension of Edo Council Chairmen, Seeks Tinubu’s Intervention The Association of Local Governments of Nigeria (ALGON) has strongly condemned the Edo State House of Assembly’s recent suspension of 18 local government chairmen across the state. In a statement released in Taraba State on Thursday, ALGON’s National Executive Council (NEC) and Board of Trustees (BOT) criticized the suspension, calling it a serious violation of democracy and constitutional order. The suspensions came after Governor Monday Okpebholo accused the chairmen of failing to comply with his directives by not submitting financial records to the state government. The statement, signed by ALGON’s National Publicity Secretary, Hamisu M. Anani, expressed deep concern, describing the action as a "setback for democracy and an abuse of power." ALGON noted that the chairmen were not given an opportunity to defend themselves and argued that the suspension violated a Supreme Court ruling that upholds ...

 Siasia Opposes Foreign Manager For Super Eagles


Former Super Eagles head coach, Samson Siasia has revealed that the country’s senior men’s national team can do without a foreign manager.


This is coming as the Nigeria Football Federation is mulling the appointment of a foreigner to tinker the three-time African champions for the remaining 2926 FIFA World Cup qualification next year.


The Super Eagles are currently fifth behind Rwanda, South Africa, Benin Republic and Lesotho in the 6-team group with three points from four games having drawn three and lost one.


Rubbishing the proposition of another foreign manager for the Super Eagles, the former Flying Eagles and Olympic team helmsman said, “We don’t want any foreign coach here because they are not coming to do anything. We have enough good materials at home that we should not be talking about hiring a foreign coach”.


The 57-year-old also called on interim head coach, Austine Eguavoen to officially resign from his role with the Super Eagles, and focus on his primary job as the technical director of the country’s football governing body.


Even though Eguavoen successfully guided the team to qualification for the Africa Cup of Nations next year in an interim capacity, the NFF haven’t made a statement on his status with the team ahead of the resumption of the qualifiers for the World Cup.


Siasia however, believes that his former teammate should choose between being a coach or the technical director of the NFF.


“As for Austin Eguavoen’s future with the Super Eagles, I will suggest that we wait a while to see how the team will be. It is a very young team. Eguavoen has a job already as the technical director. He should resign as Super Eagles manager and concentrate on his job. He cannot hold two positions at the same time. He should actually decide on which one to hold and leave the other,”.


The 1994 AFCON winners and two-time Olympic Games medal-winning coach on Thursday, 22 August, completed a five-year ban imposed by FIFA for a match-fixing allegation.


The ban, initially a lifetime one, was reduced on appeal to five years by the Court of Arbitration for Sports (CAS) in 2019.

  SSANU, NASU threaten strike over withheld salaries The Joint Action Committee of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions have threatened to disrupt industrial peace in universities should the government fail to release the withheld salaries of members. The salaries were seized by the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari during their strike in 2022. The unions, in a joint letter signed on Friday by the President of SSANU, Muhammed Ibrahim and General Secretary of NASU, Peters Adeyemi, questioned the rationale with which the government released four months withheld salaries to members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities but failed to release the withheld salaries of non-academic staff. The unions noted that they would no longer be able to assure the government of industrial peace in universities should the amounts owed by the government are not released. Earlier, the uni...
