Yusuf Gagdi Receives Massive Support as Ward Tour Begins Ahead of APC Primaries
Member representing Pankshin/Kanke/Kanam Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Yusuf Adamu Gagdi, has received overwhelming support from party faithfuls and residents as he commenced a ward-to-ward tour across the constituency ahead of the All Progressives Congress (APC) primaries.
The tour, which is expected to cover wards across Pankshin, Kanke, and Kanam Local Government Areas in the coming days, began with a massive turnout of supporters in several wards in Pankshin Local Government Area.
Communities visited during the first phase of the tour included Tal, Jiblik, Garram, Chip, Langkang, Belning, Kangshu, Kadung, and Fier, where large crowds gathered to welcome the federal lawmaker.
Addressing supporters during the visits, Gagdi expressed appreciation for the warm reception and overwhelming show of support, pledging to continue delivering democratic dividends to the people.
He urged constituents to avoid politics driven by bitterness, falsehood, religion, or ethnic sentiments, stressing that leadership should be evaluated based on performance and tangible achievements.
According to him, his focus over the past eight years has been on bringing development and progress to the constituency, assuring the people that he would sustain the momentum if re-elected for another term.
The lawmaker stated that electoral choices should be based on proven records and service delivery rather than the number of times a candidate has contested or won elections.
“My appeal is for the people to vote for someone they know has worked for them and has visible evidence of performance,” he said.
Gagdi further assured constituents of his continued commitment to inclusive representation, development projects, and effective service delivery, noting that he remains dedicated to advancing the interests of the people of Pankshin, Kanke, and Kanam Federal Constituency.
He also called on APC faithfuls to support candidates with credible records during the party primaries, describing unity and support for performing leaders as critical to the progress of the party and the constituency.
Yusuf Adamu Gagdi is seeking a third term in the House of Representatives under the platform of the APC.
As dust settles on the aftermath of this year’s Unity Cup in London, the event’s brand ambassador, Dr Drew Uyi has hailed the four-nation invitational competition for bringing forth many unforgettable moments.
Sports247 reports that Uyi, who is a globally-acclaimed corporate strategist, business instructor and FIFA-licensed agent, further hailed the 2026 Unity Cup for providing a glamorous spectacle of cultural excellence and unity.
Uyi further praised the quality of football that was on offer at Charlton Athletic FC’s Valley Stadium, where Nigeria defeated Jamaica 3-0 in last Saturday’s final, four days after they deflated Zimbabwe 2-0 in the opening match at same venue.
While noting that the Eagles snatched a fourth consecutive Unity Cup title, Uyi pointed out that the competition is aimed at fostering peace, community development and cultural harmony among participating countries, which he says were all achieved.
He waxed lyrical about the competition’s success in terms of social interactions, cultural connections and football artistry, all of which Uyi affirmed have huge potential to get better and bigger with the 2027 edition already in planning stage.
“We celebrate an incredible tournament that saw Nigeria crowned champions again. It was a celebration of football, culture and community, as the Unity Cup 2026 brought unforgettable moments and united fans from across the globe.
“We say thank you to all the players, supporters, partners and volunteers who made this year’s tournament such a success. Even as works have started to make Unity Cup 2027 better and bigger,” Uyi enthused confidently.
BY NKECHI NAECHE-ESEZOBOR—The Founder and Executive Chairman of Baywood Holdings Limited, Emperor Chris Baywood Ibe, has praised the National Insurance Commission (NAICOM) for encouraging innovation and digital growth within the country’s financial services sector.
Speaking in Lagos, the Baywood founder, noted that the regulator’s forward-thinking approach recognizes digital ecosystems as the primary pathway to deepening insurance penetration and expanding access across Nigeria.
The commendation follows the recent deployment of an operational web aggregator license granted by NAICOM to CBI Partnering Insurtech Limited, a subsidiary of Baywood Holdings.
According to Ibe, this regulatory approval directly aligns with the Federal Government’s newly assented insurance policy, which is aimed at driving comprehensive financial inclusion through digital transformation.
He revealed that the company invested over a year into building a robust technological infrastructure before securing final regulatory approval.
Ibe stated that while the licensing process was stringent to acquire, it served as the final piece of the puzzle for the firm.
He emphasized that long before receiving the official nod, the company had invested heavily in building the technology and preparing for scale, operating on the principle that operational readiness must always precede market recognition.
Operating strictly as a technology-driven marketplace rather than a traditional insurance underwriter, CBI Partnering Insurtech plans to leverage its web aggregator status to bridge the gap between conventional insurance providers and the uninsured public.
The highly scalable platform is web-based, app-driven, and API-ready, specifically engineered to integrate insurers, Health Maintenance Organizations (HMOs), corporate entities, SMEs, and individual retail consumers into a single, unified digital ecosystem.
