Real Madrid And Spain Legend, Sergio Ramos ‘Agrees To Buy’ Sevilla

Image
  Former Real Madrid and  Spain defender, Sergio Ramos is reportedly on the cusp of acquiring his boyhood club, Sevilla, alongside investment group Five Eleven Capital, Spanish media outlets reported on Tuesday. The proposed deal, valued at approximately 400 million euros (£347 million), would see the consortium take an 80 per cent stake, with shares estimated at 3,500 euros each, according to El Pais. The transaction requires approval from La Liga and the Spanish National Sports Council. The Andalusian club, a consistent presence in La Liga since 2001-02, is currently embroiled in a relegation battle. Despite winning the Europa League in 2022-23, Sevilla sit 13th in Spain’s top division, just three points above the drop zone with three games remaining, echoing last season's narrow escape where they finished 17th. Ramos, 40, began his youth career at Sevilla before his 2005 move to Real Madrid, where he won 22 major trophies during a 16-year spell with the club. He won La Liga...

JAMB Retains 150 As University Admission Cut-Off Mark

Image
  The  Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has retained 150 as the cut-off mark for admission into universities for the 2026/27 academic session. JAMB announced this during its policy meeting in Abuja on Monday, where it said the decision followed a vote of vice-chancellors available at the meeting. It said the cut-off for colleges of nursing is 150, while for polytechnics, it was 100 of the 400 obtainable marks. The scores, known as National Minimum Tolerable UTME Scores, indicate that no tertiary institution is allowed to admit candidates who score below the agreed benchmarks. But schools are generally permitted to set higher cut-offs for applicants seeking admission. Last year, the cut-off mark for admission into universities was pegged at 150, a move which raised concerns among Nigerians and prompted outcry among observers who argued it was too low for admission seekers. At the meeting, the Minister of Education, Tunji Alausa, said the minimum age for admission...

  Two Miami-Dade police officers have filed a defamation lawsuit against Hollywood stars, Ben Affleck and Matt Damon over their portrayal in the Netflix crime drama, The Rip. The officers, Jason Smith and Jonathan Santana, claim the film has caused serious damage to their personal and professional reputations. According to the lawsuit, the movie implies that they engaged in unethical behaviour and misconduct during a real-life police operation in June 2016. Although the officers are not named, the legal complaint argues that the film’s characters are clearly based on them. The movie tells the story of two officers who discover $20 million in cartel cash, which leads to corruption within the department. In reality, Smith and Santana were the officers who seized over $21 million during a high-profile investigation in 2016. The officers allege that since the movie’s release in January 2026, colleagues and family members have questioned their integrity. They claim the film incorrectly ...
