The concept of "blind decision-making" refers to the practice of formulating policies without comprehensive analysis or consideration of their impact on the target population. This approach often leads to ineffective and inefficient utilization of resources, resulting in minimal progress towards poverty alleviation goals. In the case of the two "tigers" from the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, their actions have demonstrated the destructive consequences of prioritizing political expedience over the well-being of vulnerable communities.Alexander Zinchenko's absence from training has left many wondering about the Ukrainian midfielder's availability for the upcoming fixtures.

Article content If you can’t beat ’em, join ’em, it seems. Hyundai in the U.S. will be offering free adapters to its electric vehicle (EV) customers that will allow them to fast-charge their vehicles at Tesla Superchargers. So far, we haven’t heard if Hyundai will be doing the same in Canada, but we’ll let you know when we find out more. Current Hyundai models use a CCS (Combined Charging System) fast-charging port, which isn’t compatible with a Tesla fast-charger. Tesla refers to its port as the North American Charging Standard, or NACS, although it’s just a name and isn’t actually a regulated standard. Hyundai will be equipping all of its all-new or refreshed EVs exclusively with an NACS port, which began in the third quarter of 2024 in the U.S., and will happen in the first half of 2025 in Canada. While several other automakers have announced their intention to equip their vehicles with NACS ports, Hyundai said its 2025 Ioniq 5 is “the first non-Tesla vehicle on sale to feature a factory-installed native NACS port.” With its NACS-equipped vehicles, Hyundai will offer an adapter that allows them to be charged on a CCS charger. The NACS/CCS ports are only for fast-charging and the vehicles also have a port for regular charging, which works for either Level 1 (regular household current) or Level 2 (240-volt), the latter including home chargers and many public chargers. The free vehicle adapter will be available in the U.S. starting in the first quarter of 2025. It will be offered to current owners or to new ones, providing they purchase or lease their vehicles on or before January 31, 2025. The adapter, which fits into the CCS port and accepts the NACS charging plug, will be available for the 2024 and earlier Kona Electric , Ioniq Hatchback , Ioniq 5 and Ioniq 6 ; and the 2025 Ioniq 6 , Ioniq 5 N , and Kona Electric . Hyundai said the adapter – or the factory port, when it arrives – will give owners double the number of fast-charging stations currently available to them with the ability to access the Tesla network. The upcoming Ioniq 9 will have the NACS port. Hyundai will release full information in 2025 for details on how owners can apply for their free adapters. The adapters will also be offered for sale by Hyundai dealers. Genesis will also offer a similar plan but will give more details early next year. Hyundai is one of eight automakers, along with BMW , General Motors, Honda , Kia , Mercedes-Benz , Stellantis, and Toyota (that last one a later entry), involved in Ionna, a joint venture that intends to install more than 30,000 chargers across the U.S. and then expand into Canada . So far, the Ionna website lists 10 stations, with four in “Public Beta” stage and the rest “Opening Soon.” Ionna said the network will be accessible to vehicles with CCS or NACS ports, and will be near to or include facilities such as restaurants, toilets, and stores.

IAEA chief Rafael Grossi called on Tehran to "provide timely and technically credible assurances" that a ramping up of enrichment will not lead to the construction of a nuclear weapon. The International Atomic Energy Angency (IAEA) on Friday sounded the alarm over the possibility that Iran may ramp up its uranium enrichment to close to weapons-grade. IAEA chief Rafael Grossi said that Iran is "dramatically" increasing enrichment up to 60% purity, close to the roughly 90% needed for a nuclear weapon. Grossi made the remarks on the sidelines of the Manama Dialogue security conference in Bahrain. What did the IAEA chief say about Iran's uranium enrichment? The UN nuclear watchdog chief said Iran's production of highly enriched uranium was expected to jump to more than 34 kilograms (75 pounds) per month, compared to the current 4.7 kilograms. "This is a message. This is a clear message that they are responding to what they feel is pressure," Grossi said about Iran's position. Europe and the US have argued that there is no civilian justification for Iran's enrichment to those levels, claiming instead it is for the purpose of producing nuclear bombs . Iran has repeatedly denied that it is pursuing nuclear weapons. Grossi said UN inspectors are planning to see just how many centrifuges Iran would be spinning, after Tehran informed his agency of its plans. "I think it is very concerning," the IAEA chief said. "They were preparing and they have all of these facilities sort of in abeyance and now they are activating that. So we are going to see," Grossi added. "If they really make them turn — all of them — it's going to be a huge jump," he said. IAEA requests assurances from Iran The IAEA issued a statement on the matter shortly after Grossi spoke to reporters. The agency called on Iran "to provide timely and technically credible assurances that the facility is not being misused to produce uranium of an enrichment level higher than that declared by Iran, and that there is no diversion of declared nuclear material." The reported increase in Iranian production drew international criticism. A German foreign ministry source told Reuters that the ramp up in enrichment represented "a serious escalatory step by Iran." "It is obvious that such measures significantly worsen the framework for diplomatic efforts," the source said. The IAEA report comes on the same day as Iran launched its heaviest-ever payload , using a domestically developed satellite carrier, official media reported. The homegrown Simorgh satellite carrier is a two-stage, liquid-fueled satellite launch vehicle developed by Iran's defense ministry. The US has warned against Iran's space activity, arguing technology used for satellites could be applied to ballistic missiles, potentially capable of carrying nuclear warheads. jcg/ab (Reuters, AFP, AP)

The Sultan of Sokoto, His Eminence, Dr Sa’ad Abubakar, on Saturday, urged Sokoto State to borrow a leaf from Kebbi State in view of its unique mode of playing politics. The Monarch was highly elated by the presence of three former governors of Kebbi State seated side-by-side with the incumbent governor for a lecture on Malam Abdullahi Fodio. He disclosed this at the maiden edition of Malam Abdullahi Fodio Annual Public Lecture 2024 held at the Presidential Lodge in Birnin Kebbi. Sultan described the scenario as unique, distinctive and unparallel worthy of commendation, saying that all the governors put aside their political differences and come together for a common goal of promoting Abdullahi Fodio’s legacies. “This is something that we need to borrow from Kebbi State. Today, we see all the three former governors seated together with the incumbent in a very historic event of Mallam Abdullahi Fodio Annual Public Lecture,” he said. The Sultan described Nigeria as a one big family in view of the cordial relationship that exists between different regions of the country, observing: “The event brought together different traditional rulers from across Nigeria.” This, according to him, signifies love, tolerance, understanding and accommodation among Nigerians regardless of culture, tribe or religion. Speaking on leadership, Sultan Abubakar advised Nigerians to stop castigating their leaders, instead, they should pray for them and tell them the truth. “It’s very important that we tell our leaders the truth, if they abide by it, good, if they refused, leave them to their creator. “Leaders should bear in mind that one day, they will stand before Almighty Allah to account for their stewardship. “In the affairs of people fear Allah (SWT), in the affairs of Almighty Allah fear no one. Leadership is all about justice, doing the right thing for the good of the people you lead,” he noted. In his speech, the Kebbi State Governor, Comrade Dr Nasir Idris, Kauran Gwandu appreciated Sultan for the accolades showered on the leaders, adding that he had served under all three former governors as a unionist. The governor assured that the lecture and all other cultural festivities in the four emirates of the state would be sustained to promote unity and understanding among different emirates. He used the occasion to officially change the name of the state university to Mallam Abdullahi Fodio. “Today I want to announce in order to keep the name for the younger once. I want to change the name of Kebbi State University of Science and Technology, Aliero to Mallam Abdullahi Fodio University, this is in respect for his efforts. “Kebbi State Government will do the needful by following the due process to actualise this mission,” he said. On their part, the former governors of the state, Sen. Adamu Aleiro, Alhaji Saidu Dakingari, and Sen. Atiku Bagudu, the Minister of Budget and Economic Planning, appreciated Gov. Idris for his support to the traditional rulers. They urged leaders at all levels to emulate the virtue and leadership style of compassion, tolerance, equity and transparency of Sheikh Abdullahi Gwandu. Prof. Bello Bada, Prof. Ja’afar Kaura, all from Usmanu Danfodiyo University, Sokoto as we all Sheikh Isah Talata-Mafara, presented papers on ,” Mallam Abdullahi Fodiyo on Good Governance; Responsibility of a Citizen to Constituted Authority and Relationship Between Teachers and Leaders among People”.
KABUL - The Taliban's supreme leader has issued an order banning the construction of windows in residential buildings that overlook areas used by Afghan women and saying that existing ones should be blocked. According to a statement released late Saturday by the Taliban government spokesman, new buildings should not have windows through which it is possible to see "the courtyard, kitchen, neighbour's well and other places usually used by women". "Seeing women working in kitchens, in courtyards or collecting water from wells can lead to obscene acts," according to the decree posted by government spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid on social media platform X. Municipal authorities and other relevant departments would have to monitor construction sites to ensure it is not possible to see into neighbours' homes. In the event that such windows exist, owners would be encouraged to build a wall or obstruct the view "to avoid nuisances caused to neighbours", the decree states. Since the Taliban's return to power in August 2021, women have been progressively erased from public spaces, prompting the United Nations to denounce the "gender apartheid" the administration has established. Taliban authorities have banned post-primary education for girls and women, restricted employment and blocked access to parks and other public places. A recent law even prohibits women from singing or reciting poetry in public under the Taliban government's ultra-strict application of Islamic law. It also encourages them to "veil" their voices and bodies outside the home. Some local radio and television stations have also stopped broadcasting female voices. The Taliban administration claims that Islamic law "guarantees" the rights of Afghan men and women.Major Bureaucratic Reshuffle in Odisha, 11 IAS Officers Get Fresh AppointmentsLAS VEGAS — The Philadelphia Eagles have won eight straight games.
