SportsOCT: Ronaldinho, Okocha, African Barca Legends To Feature In Abuja Charity Match by Eljay9233(op): 8:05pm On Oct 15, 2025
Barcelona Legend, Ronaldinho Gaúcho and Super Eagle icon, Jay-Jay Okocha, are set to clash in a Charity Match in Abuja, dedicated to advancing the empowerment of the girl child.

The highly anticipated match, scheduled for 15 to 25 October 2025, kicks off at 3:00 PM and is expected to unite football icons worldwide for an unforgettable display of skill, nostalgia, and purpose.

In a statement on Monday, the organisers said the monumental sporting and philanthropic event will occur at Moshood Abiola National Stadium, Abuja, Nigeria, titled ‘Barça Legends vs. African Legends Charity Match’.

The charity match is an initiative of Attom Foundation in partnership with Apitix to support girl-child empowerment programmes.

Legends
The match will reunite football legends Ronaldinho and Okocha, teammates at PSG from 2001 to 2002, alongside other former Barcelona and African footballers.

The Barça Legends squad features global greats Ronaldinho, Ludovic Giuly, Javier Saviola, Jesús Angoy, Samuel Okunowo, Marc Valiente, and Fernando Navarro.

They will go head-to-head against the African Legends, led by Jay-Jay Okocha, Nwankwo Kanu, Alex Song, Mark Fish, and other revered figures of African football.

Gala Dinner
Beyond the match, the event also offers the fans a ‘Legends Meet and Greet’ and an exclusive Gala Dinner, where supporters and guests will have the rare opportunity to engage directly with football’s finest in an atmosphere of celebration and generosity.

The Charity Match and Legend’s Dinner proceeds will directly support initiatives focused on the girl child across Africa.

Speaking on the initiative, Yahaya Attom, founder of the Attom Foundation, reiterated football’s impact on connecting and uniting people worldwide.

The founder said the match will celebrate unity and resilience while impacting Girl Child worldwide.

“At Attom Foundation, we’ve always believed that actual impact begins with connection, and nothing connects people more deeply than football. This match celebrates unity, resilience, and the shared joy that defines us as Africans.

“Every cheer, every goal, every moment reminds us that we can come together for something greater, for hope, for community, and for the love of the game,” Mr Attom said.

The event comes up on the 25th of October 2025 by 3pm

Tesla CEO Elon Musk announced the launch of the “America Party” on July 5, a day after asking his followers on X whether a new US political party should be created.

“By a factor of 2 to 1, you want a new political party and you shall have it!” Musk declared on X.

Today, the America Party is formed to give you back your freedom.”



The announcement follows a public rift between Musk and US President Donald Trump over the “One, Big, Beautiful Bill” — a sweeping tax-and-spending package signed into law on July 4.

Foreign AffairsRe: Iran Leadership Vows Retaliation Over US Attack On Nuclear sites, Trump Reacts by Eljay9233(m): 2:15pm On Jun 22, 2025
icedfire:
Let’s get some facts in order, because emotions are running high and misinformation is everywhere

Claim 1: “Israel attacked Iran first, and Iran is a sovereign nation.”

This argument keeps popping up, but it ignores years and decades of provocation and aggression from Iran.

Rebuttal:
Iran has been attacking Israel for years indirectly by funding, arming, and commanding proxies like Hezbollah in Lebanon, Hamas in Gaza, the Houthis in Yemen, and Shia militias in Iraq and Syria. These groups have been consistently launching rockets and bombs into Israeli territory. This isn’t hearsay — this is confirmed by global intelligence agencies and even openly admitted by Iran’s own leadership.

On October 7, Hamas launched a brutal and unprecedented terror attack on Israel — killing civilians, taking hostages, and sparking the current escalation. That attack was the first shot in this round of war, not anything Israel did to Iran directly.

Yes, Israel is now responding — as any nation would. And they’re doing it strategically, going after each proxy one by one — Hamas, then other militias, and now possibly turning their attention to Iran itself, the source of it all.

Even Hezbollah — Iran’s top ally — is now publicly saying they won’t join the war if Iran is directly attacked. That tells you everything. Iran is mostly alone, because even its so-called allies know how reckless this has become.

Claim 2: “If Israel and the U.S. have nuclear weapons, why can’t Iran have nukes too?”

On the surface, this might sound like a fair question but look deeper.

Rebuttal:
There’s a massive difference between who holds nuclear weapons and how they intend to use them.

In Iran, every parliamentary session ends with chants of “Death to Israel, Death to America.” This isn’t symbolic. Iran backs it up with real-world violence through its proxies. They’ve made their intentions crystal clear — they want to wipe Israel off the map. So why should a nation with that mindset be allowed to have nuclear weapons?

Think of it like this: it’s okay for a police officer to carry a gun, because his job is to protect people. But should we hand a gun to an armed robber who already told us he plans to shoot someone? That’s exactly what giving Iran nukes would look like.

The U.S. and Israel having nukes doesn’t mean everyone should. There’s a difference between deterrence and destruction. Iran isn’t seeking peace. They are seeking power to enforce their ideology through violence.


Iran is too small for Isreal to destroy. Imagine , if Isreal was to do the same thing Iran is doing ? Isreal and now Us are the only country that would announce an impending attack to you civilians to move , hence targeting only military installations but Iran doesn’t give no eff about civilians . They delight in blowing up hospitals. Please if you want to Arthur , argue with logic and not emotions or your religious affiliations or sentiments . Ire o

Foreign AffairsRe: Iran Says Nuclear Sites Evacuated Before US Strikes by Eljay9233(m): 8:53am On Jun 22, 2025
malali:
You really think they left the enriched Uranium there, for Trump to come bomb it ?

For those that dont understand how nuclear weapons are made, the main ingredient is the 400kg of enriched Uranium believed to be owned by Iran.

Once Iran was able to hide this 400kg of enriched Uranium.....You can Bomb the whole Iran. It doesn't stop there ability to make Nuclear Bombs.


My bet is USA striked nothing, the Iranians didnt survive 2500 years by being stupid.

If the USA really destroyed the enriched uranium, there should be detectable and measurable radioactive leaks in the air in those places....Guess what none reported so far !!!!
Unanium enrichment no be like clothes wey them de fold put for bag carry travel. It is a huge arrangement's that took months and extra care to set up. And would require more than same to remove. So don’t decieve yourself

Nairaland GeneralHow To Lower Fuel Consumption Of Your Car by Eljay9233(op): 8:07am On Mar 15, 2025
When President Bola Tinubu announced an end to fuel subsidy at the inception of his regime in 2023, many motorists were jolted by the expected impact it would have on the cost of keeping their vehicles on the road.

Many Nigerians were also concerned about the impact it would have on the cost of living, especially the prices of goods, services and transportation.
And their fears were genuine; prices of goods went up astronomically and there were complaints of hardship all over the country.





This led to a swift drop on the sales of big cars, especially Sport Utility Vehicles. Many Nigerians quickly parked these cars in their homes and some immediately put up theirs for sale while others quickly bought smaller cars that they presumed would consume less fuel. They forgot that the rainy season would not be fair to the roads and their new small sedans, especially the bumpers and underneath the cars.

Those living in flood-prone areas like Lekki and some seasonally flooded areas in Rivers, Delta and Bayelsa states can attest to the advantages of SUVs over sedans from their expenses. With some of these expected challenges, it didn’t take long for the average Nigerian motorist to adjust and live with the negative impacts of the fuel subsidy removal.

Though the challenge persists, coupled with the poor state of the roads across the country, it has been almost impossible for Nigerians to totally do away with their big cars and SUVs which are renowned for higher fuel consumption. It is the classical case of choosing between the devil and the deep blue sea.

Today, Vanguard offers you some tips on how to ensure maximum fuel economy in your vehicles at a time like this. It is clear that by improving your car’s fuel economy, you’re helping to reduce the drain on your wallet. With some simple driving tips and habits, your fuel can take you further. A combination of good driving habits, and proper vehicle maintenance of your car is essential.

The Tips

*When driving, accelerate and brake gently, quick starts and stops waste fuel, but smooth driving boosts your kilometres per litre. Driving at slower speeds leads to better fuel efficiency.



Reducing speed by 10-20 kph can help. Keep a steady speed, you may use your cruise control on motorways because when you drive at a consistent speed, you save fuel.

•Watch the traffic ahead, it will help you predict what other drivers will do or intend to do. This helps you to avoid braking and speeding up.


•Also avoid idling your engine for long periods even when it is stationary as it wastes fuel. Switch off the engine if you need to stop for more than a minute.

•Also limit short journeys, and be aware that cold starts use more fuel.

•As a motorist, ensure that your tyres are appropriately gauged. Soft tyres cause drag and waste fuel. Check pressures often and inflate correctly.

Many drivers don’t know that proper inflation of their car tyres contributes significantly to the fuel economy. Under inflated tyres have a higher rolling resistance on the road. This means that your tyres generate more friction and rolling resistance and will increase fuel consumption.

If your four tyres are underinflated by 10 psi, this could increase your fuel consumption by 10 per cent. Car manufactures always have the recommended tyre gauge inscribed on the drivers door frame. Gauge your tyre accordingly and reduce your fuel consumption.

•Correct wheel alignment is vital. It reduces tyre wear and drag. This also saves fuel.

•Many motorists carry all sorts of things in their boots which they hardly need and this adds to the weight of the car, this should be avoided. Note that every extra 50kg of load in your car increases fuel consumption by about two to three percent.

Some used cars from abroad come with a heavy bar attached to the rear for pulling boats and other heavy objects from where they have been imported which is hardly needed in this part of the world. It is advised that you remove them to avoid unnecessary weight.

Some people however believe that this serves as protection when another vehicle hits them from behind, unknown to them that they are paying more to fuel their cars. Lighten your load and remove extra weight from the car. Less weight means better fuel economy.

•Use your air-conditioning system. Driving with an air-conditioner has an advantage to fuel economy but most drivers think otherwise.

Apart from keeping the interior of your car clear of dust and ensuring the safety of the driver from attacks, it also saves fuel. Driving with windows down at a speed faster than 80km/h causes a lot of wind resistance and more fuel consumption. It is more fuel efficient to drive with your air-conditioner on.

•Maintain the right speed. Avoid over speeding and going slowly too.

While both have safety consequences, they also have an impact on your fuel consumption. It has been established that on highways, your engine works hard to overcome wind resistance.

This means that you will burn up to 15 per cent more fuel at 100km/h and 25 per cent more at 110km/h. On the other way round, if you drive at a speed slower than 50km/h your engine would drop to a lower gear thus using up more fuel. It is advised that driving between 50km/h and 90km/h gives optimal fuel efficiency.

•Many people accelerate their cars as if they are running at Formula 1 Race thereby wasting their fuel unknowingly. Avoid revving your accelerator to a high revolution per minute (RPM). Your engine uses less fuel when it is revolving slower at a lower RPM.

•It is also important to note that aggressive braking is not only a disadvantage to the brake pad but increases fuel consumption.

Slamming on the brakes increases fuel consumption as the car needs to accelerate again. Give a reasonable distance between you and the vehicle in front of you. If you have been driven by a pilot before, you would understand what it means to drive with caution.

They are very cautious of the vehicles in front of them and avoid them from afar. I am sure that if we take count of professionals who hardly get involved in traffic accidents, the pilot would take the number spot

.

Avoid hard acceleration when moving your car from complete stop or climbing hills as it increases fuel consumption. Most people who drive vehicles with automatic transmission hardly know the advantage of one special feature in the car called cruise control.

If you are driving an automatic car, you can make use of cruise control to keep your speed constant. But if you are driving a manual car, maintain a higher gear when appropriate. This ensures that your engine goes through less revolutions per minute, RPM and ensures less fuel consumption.

•Driving in traffic causes higher fuel consumption. Stop-start traffic puts a lot of pressure on your engine and burns more fuel. Avoid peak traffic if possible. Turn off your engine when it is parked. As long as your engine is on, the fuel is burning. The choice is yours to keep the engine steaming when that car is not moving. It is your fuel that is burning which you can use to cover some kilometers.

•Regular servicing with quality engine oil is key to the longevity of your engine. If your engine is poorly maintained, it will lead to sludge and corrosion build-up which will prevent the engine from working smoothly. Regular maintenance is key.

•Follow your vehicle’s schedule, a healthy engine works better. A clean air filter lets the engine breathe freely. Good airflow improves fuel use. Use the right oil type to reduce friction and boost engine performance. When buying a new car, think about fuel efficiency. Pick a model that fits your needs. If your car has a fuel-saving mode, then use it.

TravelCanada Announces 70,000 New Job Opportunities For Youth In Hospitality, Marketin by Eljay9233(op): 10:20pm On Mar 07, 2025
The Government of Canada is set to provide 70,000 job opportunities for young people this summer through the Canada Summer Jobs (CSJ) program.

The initiative is aimed at equipping youth with valuable skills, hands-on experience, and career exploration opportunities while offering financial support for education and living expenses.

According to Canada Immigration Services, Minister for Women and Gender Equality and Youth, Marci Ien, confirmed that 70,000 summer job placements will be available for young people between the ages of 15 and
30

The program builds on last year’s success, where it exceeded expectations by creating 71,200 jobs, surpassing the initial target of 70,000.

Starting April 21, 2025, young job seekers can explore available positions through the Job Bank website and mobile app.

The program offers roles across diverse industries, including recreation, food services, marketing, tourism, housing construction, and environmental protection. These opportunities not only align with participants’ interests but also target industries experiencing labor shortages.

A key priority of the CSJ program is to support young people facing employment barriers.

The initiative is designed to provide equitable job access for indigenous youth, racialized youth, youth with disabilities, and those in rural or remote communities.

By focusing on these groups, the government aims to foster a more inclusive workforce and ensure equal opportunities for all.

Long-Term Impact on Youth Employment

The Canada Summer Jobs program is part of the broader Youth Employment and Skills Strategy (YESS), which facilitates the transition of young people into the workforce.

According to an independent audit by the Office of the Auditor General of Canada, CSJ participants experience better long-term earnings compared to those who do not take part.

A 2024 survey revealed that 92% of respondents gained confidence in key employment skills, while 85% expressed optimism about their future career prospects.

As outlined in Budget 2024, the Government of Canada has allocated $351.2 million for the YESS program in 2025–26. This includes $200.5 million specifically for CSJ, prioritizing job creation in critical sectors such as housing construction. An additional $150.7 million will fund job placements and employment services under the broader YESS initiative.

Minister Ien emphasized the significance of the program, stating, “A summer job is more than just a paycheque—it’s a chance for young people to gain experience, develop new skills, and explore career paths that interest them. Through Canada Summer Jobs, there are thousands of opportunities for youth to grow, contribute to their communities, and build a strong foundation for their future.”
