Rent is eating paychecks and loneliness is climbing, and a growing number of adults are answering both problems with the same address. Co-living, sometimes called dorms for grown-ups, is expanding across U.S. cities as renters look for cheaper monthly costs, shorter leases and built-in community. The model gives residents a private bedroom inside a building with shared kitchens, lounges and event spaces. It is no longer aimed only at digital nomads. It is being marketed to anyone priced out of a one-bedroom or tired of living alone. Related: 5 Research-Backed Ways to Make Meaningful Friends After Turning 30 If you’ve…

Governor Biodun Oyebanji assumed office on 16 October 2022, after a hard-fought electoral battle on the All Progressives Congress (APC) “Continuity for Shared Prosperity” mantra. It was the first time a political party won back-to-back in the South-west state since 1999, when democracy was restored in the country. Mr Oyebanji has been in government in various capacities since 1999, having served in the Adeniyi Adebayo administration (1999-2003) and the two-term administration of Governor Kayode Fayemi, his predecessor, under whom he served as commissioner and secretary to the state government (SSG). It was only in the Ayodele Fayose and Segun Oni…

At a time where concerns about deterioration of democracy have been topmost on the global agenda, the Obama Presidential Center and its focus on the foundations of democracy is a timely reminder about the roots, underlying ideals and rudimentary expectations of democratic governance. While many around the world certainly remember the Obama presidency for its powerful marker on global politics, the value of the presidential center goes beyond its towering presence. That said, it must be stated that the depth of architectural symbolism (four hands design)…

The Democratic Republic of Congo announced their return to the FIFA World Cup stage with a spirited 1-1 draw against Portugal on Wednesday, denying Cristiano Ronaldo and his teammates victory in their Group K opener. The Leopards are appearing at the tournament for the first time in 52 years after eliminating Nigeria in the African qualifying playoffs and overcoming Jamaica in the Intercontinental playoffs.

The early goal appeared to justify their status as favourites against a Congolese side making…

Cristiano Ronaldo’s record-equalling sixth World Cup got off to a disappointing start as the Democratic Republic of Congo secured their first ever point at the finals, drawing 1-1 with Portugal in their Group K match on Wednesday. Yoane Wissa’s header cancelled out Joao Neves’s early goal and the African side — appearing in their first World Cup since 1974 when it was known as Zaire — more than held their own. Ronaldo, 41, was largely a peripheral figure throughout the match — failing to make the impact his great rival Lionel Messi had done on Tuesday in scoring a hat-trick…
