The Abia State government has announced plans to revive the Aba textile mills and other moribund key industries, thereby creating additional employment opportunities within the state.

Governor Alex Otti, who made this disclosure at Ngwa High School, Aba, during the 2025 Ngwa Day celebrations, explained that his administration prioritizes job creation and security in the state through the revival of moribund industries to sustain the state's ongoing transformation. He further disclosed that discussions are currently underway with a Lebanese company to revitalize the Aba Textile Mill, and another discussion is ongoing regarding the establishment of an international glass industry and a metallurgical plant, both in Aba.

The Governor urged the people to remain patient, assuring them of more transformations across different sectors as the government works to reposition the state. He stated, "We are addressing unemployment by reviving key industries in the state. My administration prioritizes job creation and security in the state through the revival of moribund industries to sustain the state's ongoing transformation. I am currently in discussions with the Lebanese to revitalize the Aba Textile Mills. Another discussion is ongoing regarding the international glass industry and the metallurgical plant.

'Sorry Dad, I Will Beat Super Eagles Today' — Ugandan Striker, Ikpeazu Declares. Uche Ikpeazu, a Nigerian-born Ugandan striker, has expressed his desire to help the Cranes secure a victory against the Super Eagles in their final Group C match of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations.

Born in England to a Nigerian father and a Ugandan mother, Ikpeazu made his full international debut for Uganda in September 2025. Despite his Nigerian heritage, Ikpeazu emphasized that his emotional connection to his father's country remains strong. 'My dad is from Delta State. I am half-Nigerian; that is where my dad is from. So there is always going to be an emotional attachment,' he stated.

With Nigeria already qualified for the knockout round, they will face Uganda on Tuesday at the Stade Foot Fès. Uganda, currently fourth in the group with one point from two games, must secure a win against Nigeria to have a chance to qualify.

Ikpeazu acknowledged that his Nigerian connection will not hinder his performance for Uganda. 'I am Ugandan as well, and I play for Uganda. I will be hoping to beat Nigeria. So, Dad, I am sorry,' the striker said.

Ikpeazu further stated that he does not have a planned celebration against Nigeria, but acknowledged that emotions can get the better of him in the game.

The Super Eagles currently top Group C with six points, having defeated Tanzania 2-1 and secured a 3-2 victory over Tunisia.
