In the trial of Federal Republic of Nigeria v. Nnamdi Kanu, Justice James Kolawole Omotosho’s bench ceased to function as an instrument of law and began to perform as an …

Pauline Hanson Burqa Stunt Sparks Senate Backlash

November 25, 2025 1:43 am

Australia’s Senate suspended far-right lawmaker Pauline Hanson for seven sitting days after she entered the chamber wearing a burqa as part of her long-running campaign to outlaw the garment, prompting strong criticism from government and opposition lawmakers.

The suspension followed a tense session on Monday, when Hanson arrived in the upper house dressed in the full covering shortly after being refused permission to introduce a bill targeting burqas and other face coverings in public spaces. Her action immediately drew rebukes from Muslim lawmakers and senior members of the government.

Foreign Minister Penny Wong, who leads the government in the Senate, …

The leader of Sudan’s powerful Rapid Support Forces announced on Monday that his fighters will immediately observe a three-month humanitarian truce, responding to international pressure after U.S. President Donald Trump pledged to help broker peace in the war-torn country.

The RSF leader said the move was in part “in response to international efforts, chiefly that of … President Donald Trump …

A federal judge has dismissed criminal charges against former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James, ruling that the prosecutor who brought the indictments was never legally allowed to serve in the role.

The ruling centers on the appointment of Lindsey Halligan, a former White House aide chosen by President Donald Trump to pursue charges against two officials he has publicly criticised. Judge Cameron Currie concluded that Halligan’s appointment violated the statute governing interim US attorneys, making every action she took invalid.…

Real Madrid Chaos: Xabi Alonso Under Fire From Players

November 24, 2025 3:43 pm

Real Madrid are facing a wave of internal tension as speculation grows over Xabi Alonso’s future at the helm.

The situation is further complicated by murmurs from within the dressing room. Some players, whose identities remain undisclosed, reportedly do not support Alonso’s continued …

Rodrygo Hits Zero In 29+, Third In Real Madrid History

Rodrygo Hits Zero In 29+, Third In Real Madrid History

November 24, 2025 1:24 pm

Rodrygo Goes has found himself in an uncomfortable corner of Real Madrid history, becoming only the third player at the club to go more than 29 games without scoring a single goal. It’s a statistic no forward ever wants next to their name, especially not at a club where expectations are relentlessly high and every performance is placed under a microscope.

His current drought has now placed him alongside one of the more unexpected figures in recent Madrid memory: Mariano Díaz, the last player to endure such a barren run in attack.

For Rodrygo, the numbers tell only part of …
