Morning recap: UK varsities withdraw admission offers to Nigerians, why Peter Obi won’t win a ward in Anambra, other top stories

In a recent development, several UK universities have decided to withdraw admission offers to Nigerian and Pakistani students. This move comes in the wake of tightened student visa rules and mounting concerns over visa refusals. The issue has impacted international student recruitment significantly. Additionally, in the political arena, the Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in Anambra State, David Chukwudifu, has expressed his concerns regarding Peter Obi’s chances of winning an election in the state.

He claims that Obi could face electoral struggles due to a rift within his supporters and party’s existing leadership, which he says has compromised the NDC’s grassroots structure.
