The iconic former manager, 84, was at the stadium for the highly anticipated fixture when he experienced a health scare.

Ferguson, who guided the Red Devils to 13 Premier League titles, remains a fixture at home games, regularly watching from the directors’ box.

He served as a club ambassador for 12 years following his retirement in 2013, a role that concluded last year under the new ownership of Sir Jim Ratcliffe.

Reports indicate that Ferguson was initially attended to by medics in the Stretford End tunnel before being escorted to a waiting ambulance.

After being assessed inside the vehicle, it is understood he was then transported to a hospital for further evaluation.

A source told SunSport that Ferguson was conscious and “okay” while in the ambulance before departing the grounds.

This incident follows a more serious health crisis in May 2018, when Ferguson suffered a brain haemorrhage and required emergency surgery.

The club is currently awaiting confirmation regarding his health situation, as the details of his condition are not yet known.

Nigerians have taken a swipe at Seyi Tinubu, son of President Bola Tinubu, following a video of him handing cash to occupants of a tricycle taxi in Kebbi State.

The video, which has sparked mixed reactions on social media, showed Seyi approaching a yellow auto-rickshaw, popularly known as a Maruwa, and engaging the occupants in a conversation before appearing to hand over money.

During the interaction, Seyi was heard asking the occupants about their political affiliations.

“I heard this state is for Atiku, that was why I came down. Who do you support?” he asked.

Here are some reactions:

@otticiaL_Gegeh: “With this kind of moves, you think if they finally win they won't frustrate your life and make things hard for you ?

@Idanssssssss: “isn’t this vote buying?”

@ManLikeIcey: “Seyi Tinubu couldn't tell her what his dad has done to be re elected instead he bribed her with money. This is barbaric and shameful.”

@Adeyemi Olamilekan: “Just look at the way they are sharing money up and down, this is what they are using our subsidy money to do.”

@ssomie: “Such a terrible look. These people have stolen pieces. They have a war chest for 2027 but I know God has something in store.”

@Udochukwu Azuwike: That's all they know…buy everyone with money. No good governance. No quality leadership.”

@CHabeeb: “After 16 January 2027, Nigerians will have to live with the economic and political choices they make at the ballot box. Collect the incentive and vote against your own interests if you choose, but once the result is in, no amount of crying will change it. Nigerians will get the government they vote for.”

@ARÓMÍSÀ LÈGB LÈGBE: “It's desperation that make them do these things. They want to buy our loyalty with our money.”

Dangote Cement Plc has put its proposed listing on the London Stock Exchange on hold, citing current market conditions and the company’s strategic priorities.

The company disclosed this in a regulatory filing signed by Edward Imoedemhe, the company secretary, following a meeting of its board of directors on Tuesday.

In May, Dangote Cement announced it was in early talks over a potential London listing, a move that would help widen its access to overseas investors and capital.

The company later, in July, explained that the faster and more practical listing process in the United Kingdom influenced its preference for London over Dubai for the secondary listing.

On Tuesday, the cement producer said it will not proceed with the secondary listing, noting that its shares remain listed on the Nigerian Exchange Group, and that the decision will not affect the company’s operations.

“The Company’s ordinary shares remain listed on the NGX, and this decision does not in any way affect the Company’s operations or business plans,” Dangote Cement added.

The company said it will remain focused on delivering sustainable value to its shareholders and building on its strong market position.

Dangote Cement is majority-owned by Africa’s richest man, Aliko Dangote, who launched the continent’s largest-ever initial public offering in September for his oil refinery.

Dangote Cement, with a production capacity of 55 million tonnes per annum, has a footprint in 11 African countries, including Cameroon, Ethiopia, Zambia, Tanzania, and Côte d’Ivoire, among others.

The corporation’s nine-month profit in 2026 jumped 31 per cent, while its revenue hit N3.8 trillion, boosted by improved revenue from cement and clinker sales.
