How Nepal’s Gen Z Revolution Began as New PM Was Elected via Discord

The Nepalese Gen Z have elected their new interim Prime Minister via a Discord vote after a protest and revolution against corruption forced the former Prime Minister, along with other government officials and politicians, to flee the country. The Gen Z–elected Prime Minister has since been recognized by the Nepalese Army and officially sworn in.
So, what led to the Nepal revolution? Let’s start from the beginning. Over two decades ago, Nepal overthrew its monarchy to establish a multi-party system. However, things didn’t get better, as corrupt politicians quickly made their way into power. These politicians built mansions and drove luxury cars while ordinary Nepalese citizens grew poorer and poorer.

By 2010, Nepalese youths were getting more information from the Internet. They saw the lavish lifestyles of politicians and their children. There was a rising tension as more young people became aware of how corrupt leaders were stealing their future.

Fast forward to August 2025, when a trend called “NEPO Babies” began. Youths compared the extravagant lifestyles of politicians’ children with their own struggles, raising awareness about inequality. This exposé gained widespread traction on TikTok, Instagram, and other social media platforms. Coincidentally, the government imposed a social media ban on September 4th. The problem was that almost all Nepalese families lived outside the main cities, and with social media down, there was no way to communicate with their relatives. The lack of empathy—coupled with the suspicious timing of the ban—sparked calls for peaceful protests.

By September 8th, over 12,000 youths had gathered. However, they were gunned down by police on government orders, leaving 17 dead and hundreds injured. Despite the tragedy, the Nepalese government showed no empathy.

Reddit and Discord soon filled with calls for revenge, and videos teaching protesters how to protect themselves from tear gas circulated widely. By the next protest, even more youths appeared. No one expected what would happen next: by afternoon, one group marched toward the Prime Minister’s residence, while another targeted a politician’s home—burning both. This quickly became a trend, until most of the politicians fled the country.

On September 12th, the youths gathered once again, this time on Discord, to elect their interim Prime Minister—who also became Nepal’s first female Prime Minister.

The most interesting thing about the protest, however, was its decentralization—the youths had no single leader.

Baddy of Lagos Completes First Phase of Surgery in Egypt

Nigerian influencer Baddy of Lagos, David Obadiah, completes the first phase of his leg corrective surgery in Egypt with support from Davido and fans.

What’s trending on X?

Social media influencer David Obadiah, popularly known as Baddy of Lagos, has successfully completed the first phase of his leg corrective surgery in Egypt. The second phase, however, is scheduled to take place in 3–6 months.

So, of course, let’s do a quick throwback to the beginning.

Who is Baddy?
Baddy is a social media influencer who first became known for his bow legs. He often took pictures with his then-girlfriend, known as Jakobs, and posted them on X. This attracted mockery from some people, who bullied him over his bow legs and questioned how a guy like him could date a girl like her. Eventually, the relationship ended, though reports suggest that Jakobs was the one who broke up with him.

However, she refused to move on, often using every opportunity to throw shade at her ex—ironically, while tweeting from the iPhone 11 he had bought her.

As time went on, Baddy revealed that he wanted to pursue a career in modeling, but his bow legs were a major hindrance. He also admitted that he and his mother were afraid of surgeries, as he had undergone a few in his childhood that failed to work.

Eventually, it was agreed that Baddy and his mother would travel to Egypt for the corrective procedure. The N20 million required was spearheaded by Sir Dickson, with Afrobeats star Davido donating N3 million to support the cause.
Let’s all wish Baddy the best of luck as he prepares for the second phase of his surgery.

Mikel Obi Says That Everyone In The NFF should resign should super eagles fail to qualify for world cup


Chelsea legend Mikel Obi has revealed that if the Super Eagles, who are in danger of not making the World Cup, eventually fail to qualify, then everyone at the helm of affairs in the Nigerian Football Federation must resign. The former Super Eagles captain made this bold statement on his podcast, calling it a disgrace that the team is on the verge of missing back-to-back World Cups.
Many have supported this notion. After all, the Nigerian league is regarded as one of the worst leagues in the world. In addition, we have had three coaches since last year. José Peseiro first put us in trouble with a string of draws at the beginning of the qualifiers.

I am in support of Mikel Obi — everyone there needs to go, including the Sports Ministry. After all, wasn’t it the same officials who failed to register a bike for the Olympics and even forgot a timer when Chioma Ajunwa broke the record for the fastest time in a 100m race?

Isn’t it also the same NFF that has refused to pay the players their match bonuses? And this is how they keep spoiling our sports sector

Gun Violence, Bad Pitches and Weather Chaos: Can the US Really Host the 2026 World Cup?

Should the USA Still Host the 2026 World Cup Amid Rising Concerns?
Football fans around the world have begun to question whether the 2026 FIFA World Cup should still be hosted in the United States—or if their hosting rights should be revoked. This debate has resurfaced following the tragic shooting and assassination of Charlie Kirk, a conservative commentator, during a public speaking event in Utah.

While this tragedy should not be used to chase clout, it has nevertheless reignited discussions about America’s ability to safely and successfully host the world’s biggest sporting event. Security concerns are only one part of the conversation.

The FIFA Club World Cup, recently hosted in the U.S., was plagued by numerous problems: poor pitch conditions, extreme weather that forced matches to be delayed for over an hour, and widespread visa difficulties for fans and teams. These issues raised eyebrows about whether America is truly prepared for the scale and demands of a World Cup.

Now, with political violence making global headlines, football fans are asking tough questions:

Is the USA capable of guaranteeing safety and smooth organization in 2026?

Or should FIFA consider relocating the World Cup to a country better positioned to host?

Rip to Charlie Kirk!!!

Being A Nigerian Is The Hardest Job Ever Known To Mankind

Being a Nigerian is one of the top three hardest things in the world, and it’s not even number three. Imagine drawing with South Africa one day, and the very next day the power grid collapses, plunging the whole nation into darkness. Is this life? It’s so sad that even the bare minimum is not provided. Just yesterday, there was flooding at Maryland, and cars were literally swimming.
Someone once said if you have money, you would enjoy Nigeria. But even then, you’ll see Cybertrucks worth millions of dollars turned into canoes because of the Lagos floods. Funny enough, the Lagos government has decided that the easiest way to fix this is to witch-hunt by seizing Capri-Sun from supermarkets simply because they use plastic straws.

How long are we going to continue like this?

Besides, it’s obvious that these same people have applied their incompetence to our sports sector, which is at least supposed to give us some joy in this country. After all, isn’t it these same officials that lost Favour Ofili to Turkey after failing to register her for two consecutive Olympics—and instead of apologizing for their errors, they blamed her for being disrespectful?

I honestly can’t count the number of times I’ve been told that this country is unfortunately not for Nigerians. How can we continue like this? Honestly, being in Nigeria—and even being a Nigerian—reduces your chances of survival and success by 50%.

Super Eagles Fall From Grace To Grass: Who Should Be Blamed?

The Super Eagles are in danger of missing another World Cup after drawing with South Africa yesterday. While I won’t blame them entirely for the result—because, like it or not, the pitch condition was terrible and even the host country struggled on it—Nigeria’s failure to qualify for the World Cup probably began earlier, with the draws against Zimbabwe and Lesotho, followed by the loss to Benin Republic.
So, who should be blamed for our fall from being the “Giant of Africa” in football to becoming the “Super Chickens,” a team that nations no longer respect, to the point where South Africa had the audacity to give us a tiki-taka pitch? Or did the CAF president allow it simply because he is South African, while our voices were not loud enough to oppose it?

Many people are blaming Eric Chelle for our struggles in the World Cup qualifiers and are even calling for his sack. However, this man has secured 8 points out of a possible 12 in four games. So, who should the blame really fall on? The players? Honestly, as much as we want to criticize them, I can only feel sympathy. Most of them are in their prime and would love to appear at a World Cup, especially since many of them may not make the Super Eagles squad by the next edition. At the very least, even if just to “mark attendance,” you can’t convince me these players don’t want to be there.

So, what exactly is the problem? I believe it stems from constantly changing coaches in every qualifying campaign. A good coach can make great things happen. Take SSC Napoli, for example: in 2023, they won the Scudetto under Luciano Spalletti. However, the following year, after Spalletti left, Napoli—with nearly the same set of key players, only missing Kim Min-jae—finished 10th.

Again, this is not to shift all the blame from Eric Chelle, who is still trying to fix the mistakes of both George Finidi and José Peseiro. The real fault lies with the NFF for failing to secure a competent, stable coach. Until then, the Super Eagles will keep changing coaches like clothes, and consistency will remain a dream

Nigeria vs Rwanda: Proof That Super Eagles Don’t Deserve a Spot at the World Cup

Nigeria's match against Rwanda, despite the win, has proven that Nigeria has no business in the 2026 World Cup—if we even manage to qualify. Honestly, they need to start paying us for watching Super Eagles matches because the whole team looked disjointed and confused.
Furthermore, Osimhen, who had scored Nigeria's last three World Cup qualifiers, was subjected to a harsh tackle. This led to his substitution in the 35th minute, raising concerns about his fitness for the South Africa match.

Back to the team’s performance: we couldn’t string two or more good passes together. The attacking responsibility was placed solely on Alex Iwobi, while the defensive midfielders failed to make any meaningful contribution in attack. On top of that, the right wing was basically non-existent.

South Africa currently leads with 16 points. Interestingly, the only time they dropped points was against Nigeria. Obviously, even if we defeat them, it would be almost impossible for them to slip up in their remaining matches. However, not all hope is lost for the Super Eagles, especially if Nigeria is awarded the three points from South Africa fielding an ineligible player.

Yes, we don’t deserve to be in the World Cup. But we will still hope to see Naija in the tournament—Amen.
