Ese Brume’s gold medal means Nigeria has now won its most gold at a single CWG - 12.
The prior record was 11 gold medals won in 1994, 2010, and 2014 |

Politics › 15 Deregistered Parties Back Obi by PDPGuy(op): 10:47pm On Aug 05, 2022 |
The 15 political parties deregistered by the Independent National Electoral Commission, under the aegis of Coalition for Good Governance, on Friday declared support for the presidential ambition of the candidate of Labour Party, Peter Obi.
The organisation said only Obi out of the candidates contesting for the 2023 Presidency can stop Nigeria from disintegrating.
The CGG in a statement by its national chairman, Okey Chikwendu, and Publicity Secretary, Don Anthony Harmattan, said the deregistered parties took the decision after carefully studying each presidential candidates to know the most reliable and credible among them.
INEC had in 2020 deregistered 74 political parties on the ground that they failed to meet constitutional requirements that determine the continuous existence of political parties in the country, leaving 18 which passed its test.
But the deregistered parties said they still have their structures in place, adding that they would all support and work for the success of the former governor of Anambra State.
The statement read,”We have earlier stated that the outcome of the political parties primaries for the presidential ticket and selection of the vice presidential tickets will determine which party we, the Coalition for Good Governance comprising of 15 deregistered political parties and some former presidential candidates would endorse and support for the 2023 presidential election.
The choice is based on identifying the ticket with the most credible candidates who are tested, trusted, and exhibit sufficient intellectual capacity to salvage our nation from the wreck we find ourselves and meet the yearnings of the Nigerian people which is equitable, fair and just irrespective of tribe or ethnicity.
“In furtherance to the above, the CGG on July 28 held a meeting in Abuja well attended by the National Party Chairmen and former presidential candidates of deregistered political parties whereby they took a very critical appraisal of all the current presidential contenders for the 2023 presidential elections and their Vice, the house unanimously voted Peter Obi/Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed as the most credible among the candidates and as such resolved to support and work with them and their campaign group on the platform of Labour party.
“We, therefore, agreed to rebrand our offices nationwide as Campaign support offices for the project. Our structures all over the 36 States and 774 Local Government Areas are henceforth required to support the Obi ticket. https://punchng.com/15-deregistered-parties-back-obi/?amp |
Politics › 2023: Nigeria’s Voter Population To Reach 95 Million – INEC by PDPGuy(op): 10:38pm On Aug 05, 2022 |
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) on Thursday projected a voter population of about 95 million for the 2023 General Election in the country.
INEC Chairman, Mahmood Yakubu, said this at an election security management training in Abuja by the Nigeria Police Force for the police and other security personnel ahead of the 2023 General Election.
The figure, Mr Yakubu said, was 20 million higher than the combined voter population of the 14 other West African countries in the sub-region.
He said that the election preparations, deployment and implementation constituted the most extensive mobilisation that could happen in a country, whether in peacetime or wartime.
“In Nigeria, it involves the recruitment and training of staff and managing the logistics for their deployment to 176,846 polling units spread across 8,809 electoral wards, 774 local areas and 37 states of the federation and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
“It also involves a projected voter population of about 95 million for the 2023 general election, which is over 20 million more than the combined voter population of the other 14 countries in West Africa.
“Voters will also elect candidates for 1,491 constituencies (1 presidential constituency, 28 governorship elections, 109 senatorial districts, 360 federal Constituencies and 993 state assembly seats),” Mr Yakubu said.
The INEC chairman said that ensuring the safety and security of voters, election personnel and materials, candidates, party agents, observers, the media and transporters was paramount. https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/top-news/546936-2023-nigerias-voter-population-to-reach-95-million-inec.html |

OkpaNsukkaisBae: US kills Al-Qaeda leader Ayman Al-Zawahri in Kabul.
But here in Nigeria, we will give terrorists skills, amnesty, scholarship & chieftancy titles. They will tell us that a repentant BH terrorist is eligible/qualified to contest presidential election. Al Qaeda and Zawahiri are no longer key figures in the jihadist battle. So I wasn’t sure why the White House was playing up his execution |

Sports › Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by PDPGuy: 3:51am On Jul 19, 2022 |
codemaniacs: A straight red means 3 match ban or have they changed it Nah. For the AWCON and most other international competitions, it’s a one-match ban (provided the player wasn’t carrying 2 yellows prior to the straight red) |

Just watched the game highlights and I must say I have massive kudos to the SF for a valiant effort, despite all the odds stacked against them…
Thankfully, barring any injuries, both Ayinde and Ajibade will be available for the 1st World Cup game because they will serve out their suspensions in the bronze medal game. |
