More money, more problems: Debate on Black Tax in African football returns
The "Black Tax" has grown commonplace among football players, who are frequently among the highest-paid professionals in the world, but the topic is typically broached in private or in whispers. Former Chelsea midfielder John Mikel Obi reignited a long-standing discussion in November 2023 over the challenges faced by wage earners, particularly high-level football players who earn millions of dollars. "When you come from Africa - and this is something I don't think we speak about a lot - when you make money, it is not your money," Obi remarked in an interview with Rio Ferdinand, the former England international, on the Vibe with Five podcast.

Russia launches the largest airstrike against Ukraine since the invasion’s inception.
According to the Ukrainian military, Russia has unleashed the largest air strike on Ukraine since the start of its full-scale invasion. An unparalleled quantity of drones and missiles have been fired at locations throughout the nation, resulting in at least 31 fatalities and over 150 injuries. The attacks started on Thursday night and continued throughout the country. Blasts were recorded in the capital city of Kyiv, as well as in distant locations such as a maternity hospital in the center city of Dnipro, the eastern city of Kharkiv, the southeastern port of Odesa, and the western city of Lviv. According to the Ukrainian air force, the strikes continued on Friday afternoon as a flurry of missiles struck the city of Smilla and targeted the northern Cherkasy region. Additional missiles
The newest purge by Xi is aimed at the military.
Over a significant portion of 2023, the People's Liberation Army (PLA) of China, the largest military in the world, has been subtly engulfed in a storm. Eminent generals have gradually vanished from public view behind the fortified military and political complexes in the Chinese capital. Some were later relieved of their jobs without cause, including the high-profile position of defense minister. The most definitive indication of a massive purge within China's military occurred last Friday, following months of intense public speculation and evasive non-answers from government spokespersons. Nine high-ranking PLA officers were removed from the nation's top legislative bodies. Although the National People's Congress (NPC) is merely a rubber stamp parliament, the constitution affords its members some protection from arrest and criminal punishment.
This year’s US election will shape the rest of the world. Buckle up
In 2024, a rematch between Joe Biden and Donald Trump appears quite likely, and the outcome will influence not only the future of America but the entire world. All eyes will be on the White House, from the front lines in Ukraine to the Middle East. It's possible that my perspective is distorted due to my excessive consumption of world events, but I have the unsettling impression that a perfect storm is approaching at this time. After a chaotic worldwide pandemic, it appears that humanity has suddenly entered a period of extreme uncertainty. We are confronted with crises on several fronts, but we find it difficult to concentrate on more than one at a time. The conflict in Ukraine has continued, despite recent headlines focusing on the Middle East and our climate
