The Department of State Services (DSS) stepped into the spotlight after rumors linked it to the arrest of Nnamdi Kanu in Kenya. In a brief statement, DSS made it clear they only operate inside Nigeria, pushing back on any suggestion they were involved abroad. The claim sparked a flurry of questions about how Kanu ended up back on Nigerian soil and what evidence will be presented in his ongoing terrorism trial. If you’re following the case, keep an eye on court filings this week – they’ll show whether the Kenyan episode influences the trial’s direction. The situation also highlights how quickly misinformation can spread across borders, so it’s worth checking official sources before sharing news.
Mountain‑bike fans got a visual treat when the Privateer 161 received a custom paint job that mirrors the classic Alfa‑Romeo 156 GTA.

While some riders love the bold look, others argue it’s more style than substance, fearing the paint might add weight or affect durability. Either way, the bike’s components stay race‑ready, so you get both form and function. The project also shows how cross‑industry partnerships can breathe fresh life into traditional gear, and it might inspire more bespoke finishes in the bike world.

The match ended with a narrow win for Villa, tightening their grip on the top‑four race and leaving Tottenham to regroup before their cup final. Fans praised Villa’s resilience and Tottenham’s depth, proving both squads can adapt under pressure.

Curry will miss at least three games, forcing the team to rely on veterans like Klay Thompson and newcomer Jimmy Butler. The Warriors are fighting to stay alive against the Minnesota Timberwolves, and every possession feels critical. If Curry’s return gets delayed, the team’s chances hinge on how quickly the supporting cast can step up. Thompson has already shown he can hit big threes, while Butler brings defensive grit.
