U.S Postal Service unveils bald eagle stamps for America’s 250th birthday celebration The U.S. Postal Service is marking America’s 250th birthday with a new set of special edition stamps featuring one of the nation’s most recognizable symbols: the bald eagle. Unveiled at the National Eagle Center in Wabasha, Minnesota, the collection highlights the bird through five stages of life, from a small hatchling to the iconic white-headed adult that appears on the Great Seal. The stamps are now available for purchase nationwide. Officials say the design reflects both the life cycle of the eagle and the broader story of the United States itself. A Postal Service historian involved in the project said the imagery mirrors the nation’s own development, comparing the early stages of the eagle’s life to the country’s beginnings. The bald eagle has represented the United States since the adoption of the Great Seal in 1782 and was officially named the national bird in 2024, long associated with streng...

 Ekong: Eagles didn’t demand special bonus — we only want outstanding allowances cleared William Troost-Ekong says the Super Eagles are not boycotting training due to a special bonus demand ahead of the African playoffs for the 2026 World Cup. In a tweet on Tuesday, the Eagles captain confirmed the team boycotted training over unpaid allowances and bonuses by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF). Ekong was reacting to reports that the players had demanded an increase in their bonuses for the World Cup playoffs. The players and officials refused to carry out their scheduled Tuesday evening training session in protest. TheCable understands that players are yet to receive their allowances for qualifying for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) and the 2026 World Cup playoff. Some older members of the team are reportedly owed bonuses dating back to 2019. Nigeria play Gabon in one of the semi-finals for the 2026 African World Cup playoffs on Thursday.

Speaking on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily programme on Wednesday, Olayinka said the disputed plot of land in question was originally allocated in 2007 for park and recreation purposes, not for residential or commercial development. “That particular land was allocated to a company in 2007, Santos Estate Limited, for park and recreation. “The company did not do anything on the land because that place is a parkway, it’s a walkway, it’s a road corridor. You don’t build there,” Olayinka said. He explained that in 2022, the company applied to the FCT Administration for a change of lan...

 Increasing breakdown in family marriages is a ticking time bomb – Alaafin The Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Abimbola Akeem Owoade, has said that a working child protection system is a prerequisite for any nation aspiring for growth and development. He stated that planning for development without an enforceable set of laws, policies, regulations and services across social sectors could only amount to a futile exercise. He said, “Children represent the future and ensuring their healthy growth and development ought to be a prime concern of all. It is a fact that nations that experience prosperity are where family stability is jealously guarded. “To achieve global development goals, Article 19 of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child provides for the protection of children in and out of the home. Similarly, Nigeria’s Child Rights Act 2003 provides for children’s rights. “This explains why, in spite of being regarded as precious gifts from God and best hope for the future, children are st...

Sylvia Bongo, 62, and Noureddin Bongo, 33, both tried in absentia, were found guilty of embezzlement of public funds, among other charges.

VENEZUELA WOULD RESORT TO GUERRILLA TACTICS IN EVENT OF U.S ATTACK. (PHOTO).

 Venezuela would resort to guerrilla tactics in event of US attack, sources say Venezuela is moving to deploy weapons and prepare for a guerrilla-style resistance or street-level chaos if faced with a U.S. air or ground attack, new planning documents and government statements indicate. The strategy acknowledges the country’s limits in personnel and modern equipment: much of the military inventory is older Russian-made hardware, and routine shortages have left units relying on local supplies for food and basic needs. Officials have discussed a “prolonged resistance” plan that would use small units at more than 280 locations to carry out sabotage and irregular warfare, alongside a separate “anarchization” approach aimed at creating disorder in Caracas through intelligence operatives, armed ruling-party supporters, and militia members to make the capital ungovernable for foreign forces. President Nicolás Maduro has repeatedly vowed that citizens and the armed forces will resist any at...
