🚨🗣️ Super Eagles legend Kadiri Ikhana on Nigeria missing the 2026 World Cup:
“I feel ashamed watching the World Cup. It is painful seeing countries that are not at the level of the Super Eagles participating while we are at home watching on television.
“When ten African countries qualified and Nigeria was not among them, it shows something went wrong. This is a problem we created ourselves because we were not serious when it mattered most.”

KOLA OYEWO IS DEAD
With heavy hearts, we bid farewell to Professor Kola Oyewo, a veteran actor, distinguished scholar, and one of the finest icons of Nigerian theatre and film, who has passed away at the age of 80.
For decades, he illuminated our screens, stages, and classrooms with uncommon brilliance. As an actor, he brought stories to life with grace, depth, and authenticity. As a lecturer, he nurtured generations of students, shaping minds and inspiring excellence. As a cultural ambassador, he devoted his life to preserving and promoting the richness of Yoruba and Nigerian theatre.
Dr. Oyewo was more than a performer; he was a mentor, a teacher, and a living institution whose influence transcended the arts. His contributions to academia and the entertainment industry have left footprints that time can never erase.
Though death has taken him from our sight, it can never take away the legacy he built, the lives he touched, and the inspiration he leaves behind.
Nigeria has lost a legend. The stage has lost a master. The classroom has lost a great teacher.
May his gentle soul rest in perfect peace. 🕊️🌹
Farewell, Professor Kola Oyewo. Your legacy will live on forever. ❤️🕯️
