On April 30, 2026, the NNPC Gas Infrastructure Company quietly announced that it had completed the final, most treacherous leg of the 130-kilometre Obiafu-Obrikom-Oben (OB3) Gas Pipeline: a two-kilometre horizontal drill two kilometres beneath the riverbed itself.

To understand the new smart watched and other pro devices of recent focus, we should look to Silicon Valley and the quantified movement. Apple’s Watch records exercise, tracks our moves throughout the day, checks the amount of time we are stood up and reminds us to get up and move around if we have been sat for too long – let’s not forget Tim Cooks “sitting is the new coolness” line.

At a colourful event held at Enyimba International Stadium, Abia State Governor Dr. Alex Otti revealed plans for a sweeping “Made-in-Aba” initiative designed to thrust locally manufactured garments, leather goods, and lifestyle products into the national spotlight.

Addressing attendees during the graduation ceremony for Cohorts 3 and 4 of the Fashion Future Programme (FFP)…
