 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.

 Grammy nominee Rod Wave taken into custody on drug and weapon allegations


Rapper Rod Wave was arrested in Atlanta on drug and weapon charges the same day he received his first Grammy nomination, his legal team said Sunday.

The artist, whose legal name is Rodarius Marcell Green, was booked on Friday on suspicion of possession of a controlled substance, possession of a firearm or knife, and reckless driving, according to Fulton County jail records. He was released the following day.

Defense attorneys Drew Findling, Marissa Goldberg, and Zack Findling said in a statement that Green was “unjustly profiled and unlawfully arrested in Atlanta” on the day he earned his nomination. They criticized the arresting officer’s affiliation with the Atlanta Police Department’s Crime Suppression Unit, describing it as a team “known for aggressive tactics and emphasis on high arrest numbers rather than genuine public safety.”

The legal team added that Green was “targeted as part of this quota-driven approach, a practice that undermines justice and erodes community trust,” and vowed to challenge the arrest in court. Atlanta police did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Rod Wave was nominated for best song written for visual media for “Sinners,” the title track for the movie of the same name. Earlier this year, he was briefly detained on property damage and weapons charges, though his attorneys said he had actually been a victim of burglary and wrongly arrested.
