Farouk Adamu Aliyu, a prominent leader within Nigeria’s ruling party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), has declared with confidence that nothing can hinder President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s re-election bid in 2027. Aliyu made this bold assertion on Tuesday during an interview session on Politics Today, a current affairs programme aired on Channels Television. While addressing political matters ahead of the next general election, he emphasized that the opposition’s strategies will not pose any real threat to President Tinubu’s ambition for a second term. According to Aliyu, there are boundaries that leaders in power must observe. He acknowledged that certain responsibilities of governance are often misunderstood by the public. The APC chieftain further admitted that past administrations, such as that of former President Goodluck Jonathan, were wrongly accused of some issues which were beyond their immediate control. In his words: “When you occupy the seat of the president, there are specific things you cannot afford to do. Every challenge in this country tends to be blamed on the president. Let me accept that during Jonathan’s era, there were some accusations that were not entirely justified. Being in such a sensitive office requires patience and careful decision-making. But I want to make it very clear that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu will return to power in 2027, and nothing will stop him.” This strong statement from Aliyu reflects the confidence within the APC regarding Tinubu’s ability to consolidate power despite criticisms and challenges. The declaration also underscores the belief that Tinubu’s political machinery remains robust enough to withstand opposition parties as Nigeria approaches another critical electoral season.
The 2023 Labour Party vice-presidential candidate, Datti Baba-Ahmed, has insisted that former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, must be thoroughly questioned regarding his controversial statement that the Federal Government has been paying bandits. Baba-Ahmed expressed his concerns on Tuesday during an interview on Politics Today, a political programme aired on Channels Television. He strongly criticized the dismissal of El-Rufai’s claims by the office of the National Security Adviser (NSA), led by Nuhu Ribadu, describing the rebuttal as weak and unconvincing. According to him, if the NSA’s office could treat such a serious statement with levity, then it raises doubt about Ribadu’s credibility. “If the so-called office of the National Security Adviser would take this allegation lightly, then Nuhu Ribadu was never a policeman; he is not a qualified lawyer; and he should not even be occupying that office,” Baba-Ahmed stated firmly. He further stressed that El-Rufai ought to be questioned by law enforcement agencies, saying that the former governor should already be submitting written statements to both the police and the courts. LMSINT MEDIA recalls that El-Rufai had previously alleged that the Federal Government in collaboration with Kaduna State authorities was paying monthly allowances to bandits. He further claimed that food supplies were also being delivered to these criminal groups under the guise of non-kinetic approaches to insecurity. El-Rufai described this move as nothing but a “kiss-the-bandits” policy, sparking outrage among Nigerians who have continued to demand accountability and transparency on the issue. The controversy has reignited debates on the Nigerian government’s counter-terrorism strategies, with many questioning whether non-kinetic measures are being mismanaged or misrepresented.

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has directed the reinstatement of Mr. Salihu Abdullahi Dembos as the Director-General of the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA), reversing the recent management shake-up at the state-owned broadcaster. The directive was made public on Tuesday in a statement released by Bayo Onanuga, the Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy. According to Onanuga, Mr. Dembos, who had briefly stepped aside due to leadership changes at the agency, was originally appointed by President Tinubu in October 2023. With this new directive, he will now resume office and complete his full three-year tenure as NTA’s Director-General. In addition, Mr. Ayo Adewuyi, who was appointed as Executive Director of News in 2024, has also been recalled. He is expected to continue in his role until the conclusion of his tenure in 2027. Onanuga further clarified that the President’s directive automatically cancels earlier appointments, including those of the new Director-General, Executive Director of News, Executive Director of Marketing, and Managing Director of NTA Enterprises. This decision is seen as part of President Tinubu’s effort to stabilize leadership within major government-owned media institutions, ensuring continuity in line with previous appointments.

Pastor Chris Oyakhilome DSc DSc DD …And in thy seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed (Acts 3:25). When God called and blessed Abraham, the blessing was for the entire generations of mankind. The Lord declared, “…in thy seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed.” As referenced in our previous study, that seed is Christ, and all who are in Christ are partakers of that blessing. Peter, speaking by the Spirit, told the Jews, “Ye are the children of the prophets and of the covenant…” (Acts 3:25). He was calling attention to their divine heritage, one that included being heirs of God’s covenant with Abraham. Through Christ, this covenant has extended to the Gentiles—to anyone who comes to God through faith in Jesus Christ. Furthermore, this covenant isn’t just about receiving; it’s about “becoming”; God told Abraham, “I will bless you and make you a blessing” (Genesis 12:2). That means we’ve become vessels of blessing. You’re a blessing to your family, city, nation, and your world. You’re the bearer of God’s covenant kindness; the Hebrew word is “hesed.” “Hesed” is not ordinary kindness. It’s God’s covenant love—His favour, His goodness, His mercy—all wrapped into one. When you show kindness, forgive quickly, walk in love, and bless others with your words and actions, you’re walking in “hesed.” You’re revealing the nature of the Father. You’re a carrier of covenant grace. When you arrive, God arrives. His blessing flows through you to turn lives around, lift others, and glorify His Name. The blessing of Abraham was a covenant of all-round prosperity, fruitfulness, dominion and divine favour. That same blessing is at work in your life today. It lifts, multiplies and establishes you in victory. Glory to God! CONFESSIONI am the seed of Abraham and a carrier of God’s covenant kindness. I am blessed and I am a blessing. The grace and goodness of God flow through me to lift others, change atmospheres, and bring glory to God. I live to reveal His lovingkindness everywhere I go, in Jesus’ Name. Amen. FURTHER STUDYGenesis 22:15-18 KJVAnd the angel of the LORD called unto Abraham out of heaven the second time, 16 And said, By myself have I sworn, saith the LORD, for because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only [son]: 17 That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which [is] upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies; 18 And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice. Galatians 3:16 KJVNow to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ. Galatians 3:29 KJVAnd if ye [be] Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise. 1 Peter 3:9 KJVNot rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing. DAILY SCRIPTURE READING1-Year Bible Reading Plan1 Corinthians 16:1-24 & Proverbs 10-11 2-Year Bible Reading PlanLuke 20:19-26 & 1 Samuel 21 DAILY AFFIRMATIONS: I rejoice because the Lord Jesus has overcome this world for me. I have been made more than a conqueror in this life. I live in the victory Christ secured for me; therefore, I am not afraid of sickness, for I reign in life through Christ Jesus. There is no death in my path! In my path are life, health, blessings, peace, and prosperity. Christ is my wisdom, and the Word of God instructs me daily through the Holy Spirit. I am filled with the fullness of God, abounding in power, glory, might, and grace! The totality of divinity is fully present in my spirit and uniquely expressed through me. I reveal the perfections of Christ every day in sound health and with a life free from sickness. I am seated together with Christ in the heavenly realms, far above all principality, power, might, dominion, and every name that is named—not only in this world but also in that which is to come. I am exalted with Him in splendour; I know who I am: chosen, royal, and peculiar! I experience the supernatural in my body every day by the power of God’s Spirit. I am a carrier of divinity. The fulness of the Godhead dwells in me bodily. I live life abundantly. Each day is radiant with God’s glory, beauty, excellence, and grace. I have been conditioned to live a life of honour and majesty. I possess all I need to excel and to live in perpetual health, righteousness, godliness, and dominion here on earth. That gladness produces laughter deep within my spirit, causing my health to flourish. Nothing can weigh me down. I know no depression or oppression because I am upheld by joy unspeakable overflowing in my heart. I walk in divine health, heavenly wisdom, and in the peace of the Spirit today. I walk in the light of my inheritance in Christ—in power and in grace—living in wholeness and supernatural prosperity. I am victorious. I am a success. I am a blessing to my world. My life is excellent and radiant with glory. I manifest the dominion of Christ today. I flourish continually, walking in ever-increasing splendour all my days, in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ. Amen. Speak in tongues.

The 2025 European summer transfer window officially closed on Monday night across the continent’s top five leagues — the English Premier League (EPL), Serie A, LaLiga, Bundesliga, and Ligue 1. According to LMSINT MEDIA, the window, which opened on June 16, 2025, witnessed a flurry of activities, especially on transfer deadline day, as several Nigerian football stars completed last-minute moves, while others were forced to remain with their current clubs after negotiations fell through. Below is a comprehensive breakdown of Nigerian players who secured moves, as well as those who missed out on a transfer this summer. Samuel Chukwueze Winger Samuel Chukwueze sealed a dramatic deadline-day switch to Fulham in the English Premier League. Victor Boniface Nigerian striker Victor Boniface left Bayer Leverkusen for Werder Bremen on a season-long loan. Tolu Arokodare Wolverhampton Wanderers (Wolves) confirmed the capture of Tolu Arokodare from Belgian club KRC Genk. Wilfred Ndidi Midfielder Wilfred Ndidi made a summer switch from Leicester City to Besiktas in Turkey. Victor Osimhen Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen completed one of the biggest moves of the summer, joining Galatasaray from Napoli. Moses Simon Winger Moses Simon secured a move from Nantes to Paris FC in Ligue 1. Frank Onyeka Midfielder Frank Onyeka was strongly linked with a transfer to Crystal Palace from Brentford. Kelechi Iheanacho Forward Kelechi Iheanacho came close to signing for Samsunspor in Turkey. Expert Opinion from Nigeria Speaking to LMSINT MEDIA, Audu Ojo, head coach of FC Dawaki Rangers, expressed delight at the successful transfers involving Nigerian players. “It is encouraging to see players like Chukwueze and Boniface secure new opportunities. Both struggled at Milan and Leverkusen last season, so this could be the fresh start they need,” Ojo said. He further urged players who missed out on moves to remain focused: “For those who couldn’t leave, my advice is to keep working hard and stay fit. The January 2026 transfer window is only a few months away. Opportunities will definitely come.” With FIFA World Cup qualifiers against Rwanda and South Africa coming up, Nigerian fans will be hoping these transfers boost the form and match readiness of their Super Eagles stars.

Chelsea and Arsenal officially announced key transfer deadline day moves involving two of their players, Ben Chilwell and Reiss Nelson. Chelsea Confirm Chilwell Exit Chelsea, in a statement published on their official website on Monday, confirmed that Ben Chilwell has left the club to join RC Strasbourg on a permanent deal. The England international originally joined Chelsea from Leicester City during the summer of 2020. Since then, the left-back became a reliable figure in the squad, scoring on his Premier League debut and cementing his place as a regular starter for the Blues. Chilwell’s time at Stamford Bridge saw him contribute defensively and offensively, earning the admiration of both fans and pundits. His switch to Strasbourg marks a new chapter in his career as he seeks fresh opportunities abroad. Arsenal Loan Out Nelson to Brentford Meanwhile, Arsenal also made an announcement regarding Reiss Nelson, confirming that the forward has sealed a season-long loan move to Brentford. Nelson previously impressed during his loan spell at Fulham, where his creativity and sharp performances caught attention. However, his progress was cut short by injury. The 25-year-old winger has been associated with Arsenal for 17 years, rising through their academy ranks to the first team. Over that time, he has made 90 senior appearances, scoring eight goals and registering nine assists for the Gunners. Arsenal’s decision to loan him to Brentford is seen as a move to give him consistent playing time in the Premier League, with hopes that he regains full form and fitness to compete at the highest level. Both moves represent strategic decisions by Chelsea and Arsenal as they restructure their squads to remain competitive in domestic and European football

The transfer deadline has passed, and uncertainty looms for at least two Chelsea players who were part of manager Enzo Maresca’s bomb squad but could not secure new clubs before the summer window closed. Despite Chelsea successfully sealing deals for some of their stars, others have been left behind, facing an uncertain future at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea’s Outgoing Transfers on Deadline Day On the final day of the summer transfer window, the Premier League side managed to finalize notable departures. Nicolas Jackson completed a move to Bayern Munich, while Ben Chilwell joined Ligue 1 outfit Strasbourg. These exits highlighted Chelsea’s willingness to reshape the squad under Maresca’s leadership. However, according to Metro UK, the Blues were unable to finalize moves for two senior players—Raheem Sterling and Axel Disasi. Sterling’s Unsettled Future Raheem Sterling’s situation has been a hot topic since last summer when Maresca placed him in the bomb squad, sanctioning his loan switch to Arsenal. Following his return from the Emirates, the England international rejected a lucrative move to Saudi Arabia, hoping instead to secure a deal within the Premier League. Fulham and Crystal Palace showed interest, but neither move materialized before the deadline. As a result, Sterling is now set to remain at Chelsea at least until the January transfer window, training separately from the first-team squad. Disasi’s Missed Opportunity Axel Disasi also finds himself in limbo. The French defender had spent part of last season on loan at Aston Villa, but the Birmingham club chose not to trigger a permanent deal. Without a new destination secured, Disasi is also expected to continue training away from the main squad until January, mirroring Sterling’s situation. Tyrique George’s Case Another player, Tyrique George, was also linked with Fulham but saw his move collapse on deadline day. Unlike Sterling and Disasi, George remains part of Maresca’s first-team plans and recently featured in Chelsea’s 2-0 victory over Fulham, signaling his importance to the squad going forward. What’s Next for Chelsea’s Outcasts? The failure to offload Sterling and Disasi means Chelsea must manage an awkward situation in the coming months. Both players will likely be restricted to training away from the senior squad, with opportunities for reintegration only possible if moves are finalized during the January transfer market. The situation also raises broader questions about Chelsea’s recruitment and squad management under Enzo Maresca, especially as the club continues its rebuilding project. For now, fans will be watching closely to see whether these stranded stars can revive their careers or remain on the periphery at Stamford Bridge.

Super Falcons star striker Asisat Oshoala is set to continue her football journey in the Middle East, with a move to Saudi Arabia’s Professional Women’s Football League side, Al-Hilal Women. The six-time African Women’s Footballer of the Year will be making the switch from the American National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL), where she played for Bay FC. According to reports from The Athletic, Oshoala arrived in Riyadh on Monday and successfully completed her medical examinations, paving the way for her official unveiling by the Saudi Arabian giants. Oshoala’s transfer comes just a few months after she joined Bay FC from Barcelona Femení in February 2024. During her short stint in the NWSL, she left a strong impression but concluded her chapter with Bay FC in their recent 3-2 home defeat to Washington Spirit, which now marks her final appearance for the American club. At 30 years old, the Nigerian forward remains a highly sought-after player, with her goal-scoring ability and wealth of experience making her an invaluable addition to any squad. Her move to Al-Hilal reflects the Saudi Arabian Women’s League’s growing ambition to attract top talents and expand women’s football in the region. This transition also increases the number of Nigerian players currently active in Saudi Arabia. Oshoala now joins her compatriots Ashleigh Plumptre, Francisca Ordega, Rita Chikwelu, and Chinonyerem Macleans, all of whom are making waves in the league. This strong Nigerian presence highlights the global recognition of Nigerian women’s football talent and the influence of Super Falcons players across the world. The transfer further cements Oshoala’s remarkable career trajectory, spanning top leagues in Europe, the United States, and now the Middle East. Fans will eagerly anticipate her debut for Al-Hilal, where she is expected to add firepower to their attack and bring her trademark flair, pace, and finishing to the Saudi Women’s League.

The deal is a season-long loan with an option to buy set at £45m. 10.
