*TRIBUTE TO A FALLEN HERO OF LETTERS- COMR. ROBINSON AKHENOBA* Akhenoba Robinson

There are moments when words fail, and this is one of them. I received with profound shock and deep sorrow the news of the passing of our dear brother, friend, and colleague, Comr. Robinson Akhenoba, who departed this temporary world yesterday after a brief illness. His death is not only a personal loss to us as a team but a painful blow to the media and intellectual community he served with uncommon passion.

A gifted writer, fearless communicator, and true man of letters, Comr. Robinson dedicated his life to informing, inspiring, and shaping public discourse. As the Publisher of The Political Evangelist, he used the power of the pen to enlighten minds, promote truth, and amplify the voices of the people.

Within our media family, Robinson was a dependable pillar, a vibrant soul, and a loyal comrade whose commitment, humility, and brilliance left an indelible mark on everyone privileged to work alongside him. His words carried conviction, his ideas inspired excellence, and his friendship enriched our lives. Though death has silenced his voice, it can never erase the legacy of integrity, service, and intellectual excellence he leaves behind.

At this difficult time, we extend our deepest condolences to his beloved family, praying that God grants them the strength and comfort to bear this heartbreaking loss. We also mourn with the good people of Ikpeshi Community, who have lost one of their finest sons, a worthy ambassador whose life brought honour to his homeland.

_Farewell, Comr. Robinson Akhenoba. Your pen may be laid to rest, but your words, your impact, and your memory will continue to speak for generations._

Rest in Power, Soldier!!!

I join millions of proud Nigerians in celebrating the Super Eagles of Nigeria for their outstanding achievement of securing 3rd place at the AFCON tournament in Morocco.

This victory is a powerful testament to resilience, discipline, and the unwavering Nigerian spirit. After a challenging journey, the team rose with courage and determination to finish the tournament strongly, reminding Africa and the world of Nigeria’s rich football heritage and competitive strength.

Throughout the competition, the Super Eagles displayed unity, character, and belief, qualities that inspired hope and pride across the nation. Their performance in the third-place playoff was not just a win on the pitch, but a symbolic triumph for every Nigerian who believes in the green and white.

This podium finish shows that Nigerian football is firmly on the path of renewal. With sustained unity, continuity in team development, and support from all stakeholders, the Super Eagles are well positioned to soar even higher in future competitions.

I commend the players, technical crew, and the Nigeria Football Federation for their commitment and professionalism. I also appreciate the tournament organizers for hosting a competition that showcased African excellence, passion, and unity.

On behalf of the people of Edo State and Nigeria at large, I say congratulations to our Super Eagles.

The nation is proud. Nigeria stands tall once again. 🇳🇬🦅

The Super Eagles of Nigeria have once again reaffirmed the nation’s place as the true Giant of Africa through their inspiring performance at the AFCON tournament in Morocco. What they delivered went far beyond football, it was a statement of resilience, belief, and national pride.

Still hurting from the pain of missing the World Cup, the team refused to be defined by disappointment. Instead, they transformed adversity into motivation, displaying courage, unity, and determination from the first whistle to the final ball. Across Morocco’s major stadiums, from Rabat and Casablanca to Tangier, Marrakech, and Agadir, Nigeria played with authority, leaving a powerful mark in every arena.

Although their journey ended with a narrow semi-final loss to the host nation, Morocco, the Super Eagles exited the tournament with heads held high after an outstanding and courageous campaign.

One of the tournament’s standout figures was Calvin Bassey, whose commanding defensive performances, fearless tackles, and relentless energy echoed the legacy of Nigerian greats. His display embodied the fighting spirit that defined the team’s run.

This AFCON outing has made it clear: with this core squad, sustained unity, and the same unwavering spirit, Nigeria is poised not only to dominate African football again but to set the pace for years ahead.

As the Chairman of the Edo State House of Assembly Committee on Youth and Sports, I join millions of Nigerians in celebrating this remarkable team and commending the tournament organizers for a competition that reflected African excellence, passion, and unity.

The smiles, joy, and renewed hope across the nation say it all; the Eagles have risen again.

Nigeria is proud.
Africa has been reminded: The Super Eagles are back. 🇳🇬🦅
