What propaganda, you have no infrastructure that should help economy thrive, but what you care about is just food food food, you were living a fools paradise, as long as you eat, you don't care if everything else is in decay! Stop thinking with your stomach. Go and farm if food is all you care about Mr common man

Am not a politician and neither do I have families who are that I benefit from. I work for my self, I don't benefit from government But I want infrastructure, I can get food by myself, I want a thriving economy. I work hard and God takes care of my need
Soo make we bend??

SportsPremier League Ends Stonewall Partnership, Drops Rainbow Armband Tradition by iyobimi(op): 5:22pm On Aug 08, 2025
The Premier League has officially ended its long-standing partnership with inclusion charity Stonewall, bringing an end to the tradition of captains wearing rainbow-coloured armbands during matches.

The collaboration, which began in 2014, was part of the Rainbow Laces campaign — a nationwide initiative promoting diversity, acceptance, and participation in sport. Under the agreement, captains wore rainbow armbands while players were given the option to wear rainbow bootlaces as a visible show of support.

According to a report by The Daily Telegraph, the league will now run its own campaign during LGBTQ+ History Month in February, focusing on in-house expertise developed within clubs. It is understood that captain’s armbands will no longer feature in the new campaign, nor in future initiatives on other social topics.

Past Campaign Incidents

During last season’s Rainbow Laces events, the Football Association (FA) issued a reminder to Crystal Palace captain Marc Guehi about kit regulations after he wore a customised rainbow armband with the words “I love Jesus”. No further action was taken when he wore a similar armband in a later match.

Similarly, Ipswich Town skipper Sam Morsy opted for a standard captain’s armband in two matches during the campaign due to his personal religious beliefs, and the FA did not intervene.

Stonewall’s Response

Stonewall confirmed the campaign will continue through other partners, highlighting its success in promoting inclusivity.

A spokesperson said:

“Rainbow Laces has played a key role in improving inclusion, acceptance, and participation at all levels of sport — from grassroots to elite. While it can still be challenging for professional players to be openly LGBTQ+ on the pitch, progress has been made, and the LGBTQ+ community now feels more accepted as fans and participants.”

They added that younger generations are increasingly focused on fitness, health, and mental wellbeing, and that ensuring equal opportunities in sport remains a priority.

Looking Ahead

While the Premier League moves forward with its own campaigns, Stonewall and the Rainbow Laces initiative are set to remain active through other sports bodies, including the Women’s Super League, which has recently played a key role in broadening the campaign’s reach.

Ekiti generated $4,250 as foreign direct investment.

These Muslims always troop into Christian countries but not the other way round, they have very rich nations like Saudi, UAE, why not go there? There’s no similarity between light and darkness, Abegi we don’t want blood thirsty jihadist in the name of Mohammed to co-exist with the believers of Christ the king of kings and lord of lords, prince of everlasting peace and light of all lights ….

TravelRe: US Visa Policy Shake-up: $15,000 Bond Now Required For Malawi And Zambia Citizen by iyobimi: 10:13am On Aug 08, 2025
Commentor:
Just say you don't want them to visit.

In your mind, you think they are poor Africans and should never set foot on your soil.

The total number of Malawians in US is somewhere between 10 and 15k.

Total of Zamibains in US is about 35k.

Over 300 million people live in America all together.

Clearly, you don't rate the black race.
