She has a thing for power suits, bold colors, and pieces that make a statement without needing to shout. Case in point: this navy-and-black striped two-piece by Lisa Folawiyo. The two-piece set features vertical stripes in navy, black, and grey—each line offering rhythm and variation without overwhelming the eye. The blazer, detailed with fringing and beading along the sleeves and hem, introduces a subtle element of movement. The trousers follow the same palette and pattern, pulling the whole look together without…

Underneath, a structured top in the same fabric peeks through, bringing a soft balance to the outfit.…

The olive tree, traditionally associated with Olympic victory and peace in ancient Greece, was planted to commemorate the enduring partnership between Greece – the birthplace of the Olympic Games – and South Africa’s Olympic movement. “This ceremony represents far more than a diplomatic gesture,” said Barry Hendricks, SASCOC President. “The olive tree connects us directly to the Olympic heritage that Greece gifted…

As the world pivots toward a tech-driven economy, Nigeria is not standing still. From Pan-African AI leadership in Lagos to international strategic alignments in San Francisco and Paris, we’re carving out a visible presence. But the real test lies not in appearances but in alignment. And not just among politicians and VCs, but across policy, platforms, people and purpose.

Fullback Cheikh Tiberghien and winger Gabin Villiere were expected to be named by Galthie in the starting lineup for the first of three Tests on Saturday. Villiere, one of the more experienced players in a squad lacking many of the stalwarts of the Six Nations Grand Slam winning side, sat out training after feeling pain in the warm-up.
