Kayode Williams built a drone from scratch, and he is just 20 years old.
He arrived in Enugu today and will be with us for the next 4 weeks to teach our children how to make real-life drones from scratch during the bootcamp.
What we want to solve is making low-cost drones to improve security in the East and also to dispatch emergency items like pallets, drugs, and other supplies.
These 4 weeks are going to be hot in Enugu.
We have geniuses hidden everywhere, and we will create millions of them in a few years.
Your parents arrived from Sri Lanka in the early 1980s.
Your father as a paediatrician. Your mother as a nurse. Both worked in the NHS. They settled. They naturalised. You were born here in 1986 as a direct result of that legal migration pathway.
Without the system that allowed skilled overseas medical staff to come, work, and stay, you would not be posting from London as a Reform UK frontbencher.
Now look at the language you just used.
You describe the post-Brexit intake as “the WHOLE Boriswave of 4 million non-EU unskilled migrants” who must be denied settled status and lifetime welfare access.
You frame any softening of retrospective ILR reforms as a catastrophic giveaway. Yet a significant slice of that same cohort includes doctors, nurses, paediatricians and care workers filling the exact same NHS and social-care roles your parents filled. Many arrived under the points-based system, paid the Immigration Health Surcharge, paid taxes, and worked the same shifts.
You are not drawing a clean distinction between legal and illegal. You are drawing a distinction between the migrants who produced you and the migrants who look like them today. The former get the full “my parents played by the rules” treatment. The latter get “unskilled” and a warning about welfare. That is not principle. That is selective memory deployed for political effect.
You know the difference between a Channel-crossing small-boat case and a nurse who entered on a skilled visa. You choose the broader, more emotional framing because it weaponises public anxiety more efficiently.
The TikTok dig at Burnham is theatre. The real move is to treat the settled-status question of people doing the jobs your family once did as an existential threat, while your own family’s story is presented as the model of legitimate immigration.
I can’t believe that this has to be said but here we are!
I, Ahmed Musa, the General Manager of Kano Pillars Football Club, extend my deepest and most sincere apologies for the unfortunate, painful, and disgraceful incident that occurred during our game against Shooting Stars Sports Club on Sunday evening.
What transpired against Shooting Stars is heartbreaking, shameful, and completely unacceptable. It does not represent the true values, identity, or the proud history of Kano Pillars. This club has always stood for community, passion, and respect, values that must never be overshadowed by violence or indiscipline. As a club with deep roots and loyal supporters, we are expected to set an example of fairness and honour on and off the pitch. Sadly, today, we fell far short of that standard.
I tender an unreserved apology to the players, coaches, officials, and supporters of Shooting Stars Sports Club, to the match referees and league officials who were caught in this terrible situation, to the Nigeria Premier Football League board and its partners at GTI, to the league organisers, and to every football fan across Nigeria and beyond who watched these scenes with anger, shock, and disappointment.
I know how painful it must have been to witness something so damaging to our game, and I am deeply, deeply sorry.
Violence has no place in football. It is unacceptable, unjustifiable, and goes against everything this beautiful sport stands for. Football is meant to unite, to inspire, to bring joy. When it turns into scenes of chaos and harm, we must not pretend it away, we must confront it head-on.
I assure everyone that Kano Pillars FC will work closely with the relevant authorities to identify those responsible for this shameful act, and they will face the full consequences of their actions.
We understand that apologies alone are not enough. Words must be followed by action. We would take a huge step internally to ensure that something like this never happens again.
To our loyal fans, I want to speak directly to you. Kano Pillars is a proud club with a rich legacy, and you are the heartbeat of this club. But true support is shown not through violence, but through respect, passion, and discipline.
This must be a turning point for us. We must remind the world that our love for this club can be powerful without being destructive, that our passion can lift its image, not stain it.
Once again, on behalf of Kano Pillars Football Club, I offer my most heartfelt and unreserved apology to everyone affected. To the NPFL, to Shooting Stars, to the referees, to the fans of Nigerian football, and to anyone who believes in the spirit of the game, we are sorry. I am sorry.
We take full responsibility and will do everything necessary to restore trust, respect, and the true spirit of football in Kano and across Nigeria.
Ahmed Musa MON. OON
General Manager, Kano Pillars FC
