 Sudan war: Hundreds of civilians displaced in latest South Kordofan's violence A total of 570 civilians were displaced from Kadugli, the capital of South Kordofan, over a three-day period due to deteriorating security conditions, the UN International Organization for Migration (IOM) said. The organisation said in a statement that its tracking teams recorded the displacement of 570 people from Kadugli between 8 and 10 January, as insecurity escalated in the city. The displaced families headed toward areas in White Nile State, southern Sudan. The situation in Kadugli remains “tense and volatile,” the agency said, adding that its teams are continuing to closely monitor developments on the ground. Last week, IOM reported that the number of displaced people across Sudan’s three Kordofan states, North, West and South, had risen to 64,890 between 25 October and 30 December 2025.

Taribo West: I Won’t Let My Son Visit Nigeria


Former Super Eagles defender Taribo West expressed that he would never advise his son to visit Nigeria due to how the country treats its football heroes posthumously.


In a video shared by News Central on Friday, while speaking at the funeral of former goalkeeper Peter Rufai, the ex-Inter Milan star criticized both the Nigeria Football Federation and Lagos State Government for allegedly neglecting Rufai’s family.


It's discouraging to see that Lagos State and the Nigerian Football Association are placing most of the responsibility on the family. In my gut, it feels like there's nothing worth sacrificing yourself for in this situation. That's why I've decided to take a step back—so I won't break down under pressure. It's truly distressing.


"My mother died, but I didn't cry. When my father took his last breath in front of me, still no tears came. However, when Rufai passed away, I felt goosebumps all over and found myself shedding tears as I spoke to everyone about it. What kind of nation are we living in?" he remarked.


West recalled similar neglect of late football icons like Stephen Keshi, Rashidi Yekini, and Thompson Oliha. He noted that the ongoing disregard for former players deters him from encouraging his children to represent Nigeria in football.


With such an example, I wouldn't even advise my own son to step foot in this country. Get me out of here! Do we have a Football Federation or a Football Association in Lagos State? It's disheartening that this hero, soldier, and football evangelist is treated like this by their own community.


"Can you believe the family is resorting to tears just to beg for money from our groups? It's madness. Please, let me go. I don’t want to open up," he said.


Rufai, affectionately known as "Dodo Mayana," served as Nigeria's first-choice goalkeeper during their victorious 1994 Africa Cup of Nations campaign and participated in the nation's inaugural appearance at the FIFA World Cup that same year. He passed away in July 2025.
