Veteran Nigerian entertainer, Charles Oputa, popularly known as Charly Boy, has mocked former Rivers State governor, and former Transportation Minister, Rotimi Amaechi, after he was seen sitting in the departure lounge of the Abuja Airport waiting for a delayed flight.

Charly Boy, also called Area Fada, who posted the picture of the former Rivers State governor on social media noted that it was a humbling experience for Amaechi who was not used to such when he was in government.

According to him, Amaechi has been used and dumped by the Buhari government.

In the post he titled “Time & Tide: Nigerian Mumu Leaders’, the self-styled Senior Advocate of the Masses (SAM), said:

Time & Tides
Nigerian Mumu Leaders

Once your reign is over:

1. The hypocrites are gone.
2. The sycophants are gone.
3. The bootlickers are gone.
4. The MOPOL security men are gone.
5. DSS are withdrawn.
6. Soldiers are re-assigned.
7. FAAN staff no longer shake or shiver at your presence.
8. You no longer have access to Rivers State aircraft.
9. You cannot afford to charter an aircraft from your personal income.

Then Amaechi has to stay in the same departure lounge in Abuja with me (an Alagbado man), waiting for an aircraft that was delayed for 1 hour.

Whatever position you occupy presently that makes you believe that you are superior to your colleagues, please remember that it is temporary.

Power is transient.

Norwegian Air Shuttle, has changed its logo to that of British Airways on Instagram after losing a bet on the 2026 FIFA World Cup quarter-final match between England and Norway on Saturday.

Ahead of the high-profile match, Norwegian Air challenged British Airways to a wager that would see the losing airline replace its Instagram profile picture with the winner’s logo for 24 hours.

Hey @british_airways, do you wanna make

a bet? If Norway wins, you have to switch to our logo on Instagram on Sunday (one day). And vice versa. Deal?,” Norwegian Air posted on Instagram before the match.

British Airways wasted no time accepting the friendly offer, warning the challenger against biting off more than they could chew, writing “Don’t make bets you can’t win.”

During the match, it was the Norwegians who landed the first blow after Andreas Schjelderup opened the scoring for them in 36th minute, firing home the ball over goalkeeper Jordan Pickford, who was caught off his line.

It was looking like Norway would take the lead into the break until Jude Bellingham drove a pass from Anthony Gordon into the box before latching it into the net from close range to equalise for England.

Neither side was able to find the net in the second half, forcing the match into extra time when Bellingham scored within its first three minutes, which ended up being the winning goal of the match to send England into the semifinals.

Following Norway’s defeat, Norwegian Air acknowledged the result and immediately fulfilled the bet’s condition by swapping its Instagram profile picture for the logo of British Airways.

“While the tournament is over for us, this friendly bet will forever live in all our hearts. We wish England and

@british_airways all the best in the semi-final, and we sincerely hope you’ll get to bring football home!,” Norwegian Air said in response to losing the bet.

Also, British Airways thanked its Norwegian Airways counterpart for the challenge, assuring that both England and Norway would remain friends forever.

“Rivals for 90 minutes, friends forever. A little competition keeps things interesting, thanks for challenging us @flynorwegian! Well done to the England team on qualifying for the World Cup semi-finals! It’s coming home!,” the airline said.

Nevertheless, the World Cup marked a historic milestone for Norway because it’s the first time the Scandinavian nation reached the tournament’s quarter-finals.

It was a sad tale as the collapse of the Gombe State House of Assembly complex under construction has claimed one life and left seven others injured.

The incident occurred on Friday when a section of the building gave way, trapping construction workers beneath the debris before emergency responders launched a rescue operation.

Head of Operations, National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA), Gombe Operations Office, Ahmed Ummanah, confirmed the incident, stating that all the trapped workers were rescued from the rubble.

He disclosed that three of the injured victims were taken to the Federal Teaching Hospital (FTH), Gombe, while five others were evacuated to the Gombe State Specialist Hospital for medical treatment. He added that some of the victims sustained severe injuries.

The construction company handling the project had yet to issue an official statement on the incident as efforts to obtain its reaction were unsuccessful.

Authorities have commenced investigations to determine the cause of the building collapse, while safety experts are expected to assess the structural integrity of the project.
