Casual observers could be forgiven for wondering where this company had come from, as there had been little in the way of the usual fanfare that surrounds most startups’ journey to IPO — no roadshows; no horn tootin’; no confetti-laden ceremonies; nothing, not a peep. That’s because Nebius is an unusual beast: a public company, but a startup in just about every sense of the word. Nebius has actually been public for 13 years, floating in May 2011 as Yandex N.V. — the Dutch holding company of Russian internet giant Yandex (often dubbed the “Google of Russia”). At the tail end of 2021, Yandex N.V. hit a peak valuation of $31 billion, but in the wake of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in early 2022, everything changed. Nasdaq halted trading in Yandex N.V. shares that February due to sanctions imposed on Russian-affiliated companies, and a year later Nasdaq said it would delist Yandex altogether . But Yandex successfully appealed on the basis that it was restructuring — a process that would take an additional 16 months to fully complete. Part of this included offloading all its Russian assets , which was where most of the real business value lay. What remained under Yandex N.V.’s ownership was a random assortment of infrastructure and business units that just happened to be located outside of Russia. This divestment concluded in July , with Yandex N.V. changing its name to Nebius AI , an AI cloud platform replete with its own Finnish data center. The new business was to be spearheaded by Arkady Volozh (pictured above), the Russian Yandex co-founder and former CEO who was removed from a European sanctions list in March after he publicly condemned Russia’s assault on Ukraine. The core Nebius business sells GPUs (graphical processing units) “as-a-service” to companies needing “compute” — that is, processing power and resources to carry out computational tasks such as running algorithms and executing machine learning models. Last month, the company debuted a holistic cloud computing platform designed for the “full machine learning lifecycle,” spanning data processing, training, fine-tuning, and inference. With the restructuring complete, and Volozh free to run the show from the company’s new HQ in the Netherlands, Nasdaq green-lighted Nebius to recommence trading last month. The situation was pretty much unprecedented, though: a public company whose trading was put on pause, only to resume nearly three years later under a new name and entirely different business proposition? In many ways, it would’ve made sense to have delisted and grown with private capital, the good old-fashioned startup way. But as Volozh explained to TechCrunch earlier this year, building infrastructure is capital intensive, and the easiest and cheapest way to access capital in what is currently one of the hottest spaces in tech is via the public markets. But there was never any certainty on how the public markets would respond to this strange new entity. Nobody really knew what to expect. A month in, and Nebius has enjoyed a somewhat tepid re-entry to public life; it’s significantly down on its $18 billion market cap before trading halted in February 2022, which was to be expected, and it has since yo-yoed between $3.5 billion and $4.75 billion, with some signs that it is starting to settle. “We couldn’t predict what would happen, it could be $5 per share, or it could be $50 per share — this has never happened before, nobody really knows how to treat it,” Volozh told TechCrunch in an interview in London this month. “It’s still volatile, but it’s stabilizing, and the good thing is that it has stabilized above the cost of the assets, which means that the market believes we will be able to build a business here. How big a business, we’ll see.” Nebius competes with all the usual hyperscaler cloud behemoths, though arguably its more direct rivals are other alternative cloud startups such as CoreWeave, which has raised a ton of cash this year . With CoreWeave in the midst of expanding from the U.S. into Europe , Nebius is moving in the other direction, announcing plans this week to extend its presence to the U.S. with a new GPU cluster in Kansas City (on the Missouri side) scheduled to go live in early 2025. The company has also opened “customer hubs” in San Francisco and Dallas, with plans for a third in New York by the end of the year. But while the cloud infrastructure business is its bread and butter (accounting for two-thirds of its revenue, as per its first earnings report last month), there’s a triumvirate of additional businesses under the Nebius Group umbrella. This includes an autonomous vehicle company called Avride , based in Texas; a Swiss-based generative AI and LLM company called Toloka ; and edtech platform TripleTen , located in Wyoming. Drive time Avride descends from the international division of Yandex’s self-driving unit, which spun out of a joint venture with Uber in 2020. While Alphabet’s Waymo is now leading the way in the burgeoning robotaxi realm, recently securing a $45 billion valuation , Yandex was an early trailblazer in Russia , with Volozh noting that the company had been on the cusp of beating Waymo to launch the first fully autonomous cars on public roads, before the war put the kibosh on plans. “They [Yandex] were set to launch the first taxis on public roads with nobody at the wheel, in a real city (Moscow), several months before Waymo launched in San Francisco,” Volozh said. “Journalists were invited to a big event in March, ’22, but that launch never happened. People had to pack all their things and go in a matter of weeks.” The team that had been working on Yandex’s autonomous vehicle project transitioned over to Avride, a new brand it launched last year, eventually moving to Austin via Tel Aviv. “This is the same 250 people,” Volozh added. Last month, Avride announced a significant multiyear partnership with Uber, which saw Avride’s sidewalk food delivery robots land on Uber Eats starting in Austin , though the partnership will also bring Avride’s self-driving cars to the Uber platform later (Uber has signed other similar deals, including with Google’s sibling company Waymo ). While Yandex had sufficiently deep pockets to fund autonomous vehicle projects, Nebius doesn’t — it has a couple billion dollars in the bank from its Russian divestment, and it’s laser-focused on building its cloud infrastructure business. And this is why Volozh says that Avride will need to find additional partners in the longer term. “They have enough budget for this year and next year,” Volozh said. “We’re financing them, but they need to use this time to find new partners, because it’s very capital intensive to build fleets. It needs real investment.” Obvious partners might include car manufacturers, but it could be any entity that’s ready to invest billions, with Volozh adding that it would be willing to give up control in Avride if needed. Toloka, meanwhile, is a platform that specializes in data labeling and quality control for large language models (LLMs) and related AI systems — it’s much like Scale AI , which was most recently valued at more than $13 billion . Toloka has clear synergies with Nebius’s core infrastructure business, but the customers aren’t the same. Nebius works largely with generative AI startups seeking compute, whereas Toloka works with bigger companies such as Amazon and Hugging Face that want to improve their LLMs. Both Toloka and Avride could eventually follow a similar path to that of ClickHouse , creators of the eponymous open source database management system that spun out of Yandex in 2021 . While the commercial ClickHouse entity secured big-name backers such as Index Ventures, Benchmark Capital, and Coatue, Nebius has retained a minority stake. “ClickHouse became very popular, and we were approached by investment funds to create a business around the open source project. Now they have revenues, and they’re growing,” Volozh said. TripleTen, on the other hand, is something of an outlier in the Nebius group of businesses, in that it’s pretty much a direct-to-consumer product that offers online coding bootcamps for those wishing to transition into the technology sector. One idea Nebius is dabbling with is to position itself as a provider of a “full stack of services” to AI companies, from data centers and GPU infrastructure, to education. And this highlights the situation that Nebius has found itself in: It’s drawing lines between the different entities it has been left with, and trying to make it all make sense. For now, TripleTen is breaking even, and Volozh acknowledges that it’s not going to be the big revenue driver that its infrastructure business is — but it has the potential to provide meaningful income and will remain part of the Nebius Group. “Nebius is a billion-dollar scale business,” Volozh said. “TripleTen — it’s a nice model, but it’s maybe a tens or hundreds-of-millions of dollars business. It’s not a billion-dollar business.” Parallel compute As for the core Nebius AI cloud business, the company already has its fully owned data center facility in Finland, with plans to triple its capacity to 75 megawatts. In tandem, the company is building out additional sites at co-location facilities, a move designed to not only increase its capacity, but also to reduce latency by bringing the processing closer to its customers. In addition to the Kansas location announced this week, Nebius had already unveiled a new GPU cluster in Paris that goes online this month. Further down the line, Nebius plans to build more of its own data centers, both in Europe and the U.S., but given the time it takes, it’s quicker to plug the gap with co-location facilities, which is why it’s forging ahead with a hybrid approach. “It’s more efficient if we build it ourselves, but to build means a year and a half or two years — it’s a long process, and we can’t wait,” Volozh said. “That’s why we have these co-locations in Paris and Kansas City.”
Franklin Resources Inc. Has $1.16 Million Position in Collegium Pharmaceutical, Inc. (NASDAQ:COLL)
NEW YORK (AP) — Police don’t know who he is, where he is, or why he did it. As the frustrating search for UnitedHealthcare killer got underway for a fifth day Sunday, investigators reckoned with a tantalizing contradiction: They have troves of evidence, but the shooter remains an enigma. One conclusion they are confident of, however: It was a , not a random one. They know he ambushed Thompson at 6:44 a.m. Wednesday as the executive arrived at the Hilton for his company’s annual investor conference, using a 9 mm pistol that resembled the guns farmers use to put down animals without causing a loud noise. They know ammunition found near Thompson’s body “delay,” “deny” and “depose,” mimicking a phrase used by . The fact that the shooter knew UnitedHealthcare group was holding a conference at the hotel and what route Thompson might take to get there suggested that he could possibly be a disgruntled employee or client, NYPD Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny said. Police divers were seen searching a pond in Central Park, where the killer fled after the shooting. Officers have been scouring the park for days for any and found his backpack there Friday. They didn’t immediately reveal what, if anything, it contained but said it would be tested and analyzed. On Sunday morning, police declined to comment on the contents of the backpack, or on the results of the search in the pond, saying no updates were planned. Investigators have urged patience, saying the process of logging evidence that stands up in court isn’t as quick as it . Hundreds of detectives are combing through video recordings and social media, vetting tips from the public and interviewing people who might have information, including Thompson’s family and coworkers and the shooter’s randomly assigned roommates at the Manhattan hostel where he stayed. Investigators caught a break when they came across security camera images of an unguarded moment at the hostel in which he briefly showed his face. Retracing the gunman’s steps using surveillance video, police say, it appears he left the city by bus soon after the shooting outside the New York Hilton Midtown. He was seen on video at an uptown bus station about 45 minutes later, Kenny said. With the high-profile search expanding across state lines, the FBI announced late Friday that it was offering a $50,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction, adding to a reward of up to $10,000 that the NYPD has offered. Police say they believe the suspect acted alone. Police distributed the images to news outlets and on social media but so far haven’t been able to ID him using facial recognition — possibly because of the angle of the images or limitations on how the NYPD is allowed to use that technology, Kenny said. Late Saturday, police released two additional photos of the suspected shooter that appeared to be from a camera mounted inside a taxi. The first shows him outside the vehicle and the second shows him looking through the partition between the back seat and the front of the cab. In both, his face is partially obscured by a blue, medical-style mask. Michael R.

The British Columbia Hockey League hosted a special board of governors meeting this week to discuss ways to deal with the recent NCAA eligibility change, but one thing they didn't discuss was rejoining Hockey Canada. The league has seen a number of players depart the league this month for the Canadian Hockey League – or other major junior leagues – due to the NCAA's ruling on Nov. 7 that players suiting up in any of the three CHL leagues could continue on at the NCAA level. Prior to that decision, those who played in the CHL were not able to play at the NCAA level due to those leagues being considered semi-professional. The BCHL left Hockey Canada in 2023 and became an independent league. The mission at that time was to create a world-class junior league for players seeking NCAA and U Sports scholarships. It allowed the BCHL to recruit from a larger pool of players, as under Hockey Canada they could not recruit as heavily from other provinces and parts of the world. The BCHL also stated in 2023 that all player fees would be eliminated by the 2024-25 season. According to Jesse Adamson, the director of communications for the BCHL, discussions about linking back with Hockey Canada are not on the table. "Being an independent league puts us in a much better situation to handle this change as it gives our league the autonomy to make regulation changes to adapt to the new landscape," he told Black Press Media. "Our governors are still very happy with the decision to become independent." The BCHL issed a press release on Friday morning (Nov. 22), stating that only a small percentage of players have left the league and other players have been brought in to replace them. They also reiterated that the BCHL has always been about player choice. Unlike the CHL, the BCHL does not hold a draft or tell players where to play. Players are recruited and can choose their own destination from the start of their junior hockey career. "There’s no doubt that this rule change has altered the landscape of junior hockey, but as our league has always done, we will adapt to the new regulations and continue to thrive,” stated BCHL commissioner Steven Cocker. "We will always be in favour of athletes doing what they think is best for their development.” BCHL board chairman Richard Murphy said he believes that, despite the changing landscape, the BCHL is still the best path for players to develop into NCAA Division I hockey players. He added that the league will continue to produce college-bound athletes for years to come. The release stated that the BCHL’s mandate going forward remains: unity and growth, players' choice, academics, independence, and meeting the needs of its athletes and of NCAA Division I programs. following the meeting with more information. The FAQ states that the league has had multiple meetings with NCAA Division I programs and conferences and they all feel that this decision will not make the BCHL irrelevant. The FAQ added that the BCHL's high academic standards also makes players from the league more easy to recruit into the NCAA. , with the West Kelowna Warriors and Penticton Vees both losing two. The Vees put out a statement on Friday (Nov. 22) after losing forward Casey Brown and defenceman Julien Wasmer to the CHL. “Casey came to us with a personal issue. He felt being closer to his family would be best and we fully support and respect his decision. We wish him all the best in Moose Jaw," said Fred Harbinson, Vees president, general manager and head coach "We are a few weeks away from getting two 20-year-old defencemen back from injury, and coupled with the outstanding play of our two young defencemen, Julien understood his role was going to be reduced. He looked for an opportunity with another team, rather than compete for a more favourable spot on our roster." Other players who have moved on since the decision include: Lukas McCloskey (Vernon Vipers), Robin Benoit (Sherwood Park Crusaders), Linden Burrett (Cowichan Valley Capitals), Thomas Belzil (Powell River Kings) and Liam Beamish (Salmon Arm Silverbacks).

Who can ever guess that the legendary singer is 91-years-old. The veteran singer recently did a live concert and also broke into dance to a viral song from this year. She was seen singing 'Tauba Tauba' from the film 'Bad Newz' that starred Vicky Kaushal in the led. The actor's smooth moves in the song had gone viral on social media leading many to imitate the move. Now, with the year ending, Bhosle has done the cutest version of the hookstep. Dressed in a saree, Asha Bhosle looked elegant as ever as she mesmerised the audience with her voice. She began signing the viral Karan Aujla song 'Tauba Tauba'. After singing few lines, she stepped away from the mic and started doing the hookstep in the most adorable manner with a smile on her face. The video was shared by Bosco Martis who choreographed the song for the film 'Bad Newz' featuring Vicky Kaushal. Karan Aujla reacts to Asha Bhosle's performance was beyond thrilled to watch Bhosle sing a song sung and written by him. Taking to Instagram stories, the singer who is currently touring in India wrote, "@asha.bhosle ji The living Goddess of music, just performed Tauba Tauba. A song written by a kid that grew up in a small village, with no music background and no knowledge of musical instruments. A melody made by someone who doesn't play any instrument. This song has received a lot of love and recognition amongst not only fans but also music artists, but this moment is truly iconic and one I will never forget." "I am truly blessed and thankful. This has really inspired me to keep giving you all such melodies and create more memories together," he added. He also shared the video of Asha Bhosle singing the song in his Instagram stories and wrote, "I wrote it at 27. She sang it at 91 better than me". Meanwhile, Aujla is currently in India doing concerts across the country. The 8-city ‘It Was All A Dream’ India Tour is a celebration of Karan Aujla's journey from being a small-town artist to now, an international superstar. The title inspired by his rise to fame, reflects the dreams he's had and how he's turned them into reality. This tour marks a significant step in his global mission to bring modern Punjabi music to a wider audience, having already broken ticket sales records in Canada, the UK, and New Zealand.LEXINGTON, Va. — The Middlebury College field hockey team scored twice in the second half and held off a strong Tufts squad to capture the NCAA Championship with a 2-1 triumph. The Panthers secured their seventh straight crown and ninth overall as the program finishes the season with a 19-2 mark. Middlebury manufactured a great opportunity on the first penalty corner with 5:49 elapsed. Grace Keefe blasted a rising shot off an insert that Tufts goalie Lydia Eastburn deflected away with her blocker. The Jumbos countered at the 6:36 mark as Claire Gavin took a redirection off a Panther stick and raced toward the left side of the cage. Goalie Madeline DiLemme thwarted Gavin's backhanded attempt to keep the score 0-0. The Panthers had two final chances in the opening quarter off penalty corner inserts from Caroline Segal. Each shot attempt from Emily Stone (9:39) and Megan Fuqua (14:32) was blocked by Jumbo defenders as the score read 0-0 after one. Middlebury continued its relentless pressure just 50 seconds into the second stanza. Georgianne Defeo grabbed possession in a group of Jumbos and Panthers and blasted a bid toward the left post that was stopped by Eastburn. Lilly Branka nearly put the Panthers ahead at the 18:18 mark by sliding around two Tufts defenders on the endline and launching a bid near the left post. Eastburn stood her ground, pinning herself to the post and knocking the bid away. Lainie Person looked to put the Jumbos on the board just 2:04 into the second half, but her bid sailed wide left. Middlebury took the lead with 2:10 left on its first shot of the second half. Branka dribbled the ball near the Tufts endline and flicked a pass toward the middle of the cage. Segal sprawled out and tapped the ball in while diving to the ground for the 1-0 edge. The Panthers extended their lead at the 50:44 mark. Claire McMichael ran down the right side of the field and slid a pass toward the middle of the circle. Eastburn came off her line to kick the ball away, but Defeo got to the ball a second earlier and poked it underneath Eastburn's pads to make it 2-0. Tufts responded 22 seconds later off a penalty corner. Kylie Rosenquest found the cage after a great pass from Pearson to cut the deficit to one with 8:54 showing on the clock. Tufts tried to muster up some momentum, but Middlebury's defense stepped up to the task, not allowing a single shot over the remainder of action to earn the 2-1 triumph. Branka was named the NCAA Tournament's Most Outstanding Player after tallying two assists during the playoffs. Branka also earned a spot on the all-tournament squad alongside Amy Griffin (2G, 2A), Keefe (1G, 1A) and Segal (6G, 1A). With one goal today, Segal moves into fifth all-time in single-season points (57). Her tally is her fifth game-winner this season and the 10th of her career. Segal's marker caps her season with 24 goals, which is tied for fifth in program history over one campaign. The Panthers close the season with 105 goals scored, good for second all-time behind the 107 scored by the 2022 and 2023 National Championship teams. Tufts and Middlebury battled for the 35th time and the fourth time in the NCAA Tournament. The Panthers have won each of the last two meetings in the postseason, including a 2-0 victory in the 2018 title tilt. Middlebury made its 21st postseason appearance and played in the championship game for the 13th time. This marked the fifth time that the NCAA Championship took place between a pair of NESCAC squads. The Panthers have appeared in each of those five contests, claiming three of them. Middlebury caps the season with a 19-2 record, marking the 13th-consecutive season that the program has tallied 15 or more triumphs.
Super Micro Computer Sank Amid Financial Reporting Troubles in Recent Months. Could the Stock Become the Biggest Recovery Story of 2025? - The Motley FoolSuper Micro Computer ( SMCI 11.62% ) shareholders have been through a whirlwind lately. While the stock is up 1,480% in the last two years, it has also fallen over 70% from its record high in the last eight months. As one of Nvidia 's largest partners, the server maker should benefit as demand for artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure increases, but Supermicro has also been accused of accounting manipulation. Among the 12 analysts who follow the company, the median 12-month price target of $30.50 per share implies an 8% downside from its current share price of $33. That means six analysts think the stock will fall more than 8% in the next year. Additionally, 19 analysts followed Supermicro three months ago, meaning seven have recently discontinued coverage. Wall Street is clearly shying away from the company. Here are the important details. The bull case: Supermicro is a leading supplier of AI servers Super Micro Computer builds servers, including full server racks equipped with storage and networking that provide customers with a turnkey solution for data center infrastructure. Its internal manufacturing capabilities and "building block" approach to product development let it bring new technologies to market more quickly than its competitors, often by two to six months. Indeed, earlier this year, Rosenblatt analyst Hans Mosesmann wrote, "Super Micro has developed a model that is very, very quick to market. They usually have the widest portfolio of products when a new product comes out." Those advantages have helped Supermicro secure a leadership position in AI servers, a market forecast to grow at 30% annually through 2033, according to Statista. Importantly, Supermicro is also the top supplier of direct liquid cooling (DLC) systems, which could help the company strengthen its position in AI servers. DLC systems reduce data center power consumption by 40% and occupy 80% less space than traditional air-cooled systems. AI servers generate more heat than general-purpose servers, so demand for DLC systems is expected to rise quickly. Indeed, while less than 1% of data centers have historically used liquid cooling, Supermicro estimates 15% (and maybe as many as 30%) of new data center installations will use liquid cooling in the next two years, and the company says it is positioned to "capture the majority share of that growth." The bear case: Supermicro is beset by problems As mentioned, while Supermicro shares are up 1,480% in the last two years, the stock has also nosedived more than 70% from its record high in the last eight months. Below is a month-by-month timeline detailing the events that led to that rapid decline in value. August 2024: Short-seller Hindenburg Research published a report accusing Supermicro of accounting violations, including improper revenue recognition, undisclosed related party transactions, and sanctions evasion. Subsequently, Supermicro delayed filing its Form 10-K for fiscal 2024 , but CEO Charles Liang said the Hindenburg report contained "false or inaccurate statements." September 2024: The Wall Street Journal reported that Supermicro was being probed by the Justice Department after a former employee filed a lawsuit accusing the company of accounting violations, some of which were mentioned in the Hindenburg report. Supermicro also got a letter of noncompliance from the Nasdaq Exchange , saying it had 60 days to file its 10-K or submit a plan to restore compliance. October 2024: Supermicro's auditor, Ernst & Young, resigned. "We are resigning due to information that has recently come to our attention which has led us to no longer be able to rely on management's and the Audit Committee's representations," the company wrote in its resignation letter. Ernst & Young also said it was "unwilling to be associated with the financial statements prepared by management." November 2024: Supermicro delayed its Form 10-Q for the first quarter of fiscal 2025. But the company hired BDO as its new auditor and submitted a compliance plan to Nasdaq before the deadline, saying it would become current with its filings in a timely manner. Now, the Nasdaq must either approve or reject that plan. The situation is even more complicated than what I've just described because Supermicro was accused of similar accounting violations in the past. At that time, the company filed its Form 10-K for fiscal 2017 almost two years late and was fined $17.5 million by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) . Supermicro was also delisted from the Nasdaq Exchange for about 18 months, though shares advanced 73% during that period anyway. Investors should avoid Supermicro stock right now Supermicro shares could soar if the wrongdoings outlined by Hindenburg are found to be inaccurate and then nothing comes of the Justice Department probe. But investors should be at least a little skeptical, given that the SEC has fined the company for similar violations in the past, and Hindenburg says Supermicro has rehired three senior employees involved in the previous scandal. In that context, I think prospective investors should avoid this stock right now. There are simply too many unknowns to make an educated decision, which probably explains why seven out of 19 Wall Street analysts discontinued coverage during the last three months. It may also explain why the remaining 12 analysts have set the stock with a median price target that implies an 8% downside.
Commerce Bank Trims Stock Position in Live Nation Entertainment, Inc. (NYSE:LYV)In a show of confidence, Clement Stambuli, a senior member of the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), claimed that over 70 percent of Lilongwe residents will vote for DPP leader, Professor Peter Mutharika, in the upcoming elections. Stambuli made these remarks while speaking at a DPP rally in Lilongwe. His prediction is supported by a recent Afrobarometer survey, which indicates that the DPP is gaining momentum ahead of the elections. The survey’s findings suggest that the party’s message is resonating with voters, particularly in urban areas like Lilongwe. Chimwemwe Chipungu, DPP’s presidential advisor on organisation, also spoke at the rally, urging Malawians to avoid tribalism in the next general elections and instead vote for a party with a clear developmental agenda for the country. With the elections drawing near, the DPP is intensifying its campaign efforts, and Stambuli’s remarks are expected to boost the party’s morale and momentum in the Lilongwe region. Malawians are increasingly expressing frustration with President Lazarus Chakwera’s administration, citing unfulfilled campaign promises, a high cost of living, and economic hardship. Many feel that Chakwera’s government has failed to deliver on its promises, leading to widespread disillusionment and a growing desire for change. As the elections approach, it remains to be seen whether the DPP will capitalize on this discontent and secure a victory.
The Allied Conservative Congress (ACC) has expressed the need for patriotism by Nigerians, saying the need for patriotism cannot be overemphasized in this trying period of our nationhood. In a statement issued by the national chairman of the party, Rev. Olusegun Peters, to felicitate with Nigerians on the occasion of the celebration of Christmas, he enjoined Nigerians to set aside their differences and join hands with ACC in building a better, stronger and prosperous democratic nation that future generations will be proud of. “ACC will alleviate the sufferings of the populace by providing the fruits of democracy that will revamp the economy and usher in prosperity and sustainable development. “This is in tandem with Section 14(2)b of the 1999 Constitution as amended, which states that, ‘the security and welfare of the people shall be the primary purpose of government.’ Nigerians desire and deserve a good deal from their governments,” he said. He called for a conservative ideology, which the Allied Conservative Congress champions. “We commend millions of Nigerians for embracing the ACC conservative ideology. It is the panacea to multifarious political, economic and social challenges citizens face. As more Nigerians embrace the conservative ideology of integrity, morality, patriotism etc, in place of personal aggrandizement that breeds corruption, violence and bad governance, Nigeria will regain its lost glory,” he added.Nordstrom family to take chain private in $6.25 billion deal

Casual observers could be forgiven for wondering where this company had come from, as there had been little in the way of the usual fanfare that surrounds most startups’ journey to IPO — no roadshows; no horn tootin’; no confetti-laden ceremonies; nothing, not a peep. That’s because Nebius is an unusual beast: a public company, but a startup in just about every sense of the word. Nebius has actually been public for 13 years, floating in May 2011 as Yandex N.V. — the Dutch holding company of Russian internet giant Yandex (often dubbed the “Google of Russia”). At the tail end of 2021, Yandex N.V. hit a peak valuation of $31 billion, but in the wake of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in early 2022, everything changed. Nasdaq halted trading in Yandex N.V. shares that February due to sanctions imposed on Russian-affiliated companies, and a year later Nasdaq said it would delist Yandex altogether . But Yandex successfully appealed on the basis that it was restructuring — a process that would take an additional 16 months to fully complete. Part of this included offloading all its Russian assets , which was where most of the real business value lay. What remained under Yandex N.V.’s ownership was a random assortment of infrastructure and business units that just happened to be located outside of Russia. This divestment concluded in July , with Yandex N.V. changing its name to Nebius AI , an AI cloud platform replete with its own Finnish data center. The new business was to be spearheaded by Arkady Volozh (pictured above), the Russian Yandex co-founder and former CEO who was removed from a European sanctions list in March after he publicly condemned Russia’s assault on Ukraine. The core Nebius business sells GPUs (graphical processing units) “as-a-service” to companies needing “compute” — that is, processing power and resources to carry out computational tasks such as running algorithms and executing machine learning models. Last month, the company debuted a holistic cloud computing platform designed for the “full machine learning lifecycle,” spanning data processing, training, fine-tuning, and inference. With the restructuring complete, and Volozh free to run the show from the company’s new HQ in the Netherlands, Nasdaq green-lighted Nebius to recommence trading last month. The situation was pretty much unprecedented, though: a public company whose trading was put on pause, only to resume nearly three years later under a new name and entirely different business proposition? In many ways, it would’ve made sense to have delisted and grown with private capital, the good old-fashioned startup way. But as Volozh explained to TechCrunch earlier this year, building infrastructure is capital intensive, and the easiest and cheapest way to access capital in what is currently one of the hottest spaces in tech is via the public markets. But there was never any certainty on how the public markets would respond to this strange new entity. Nobody really knew what to expect. A month in, and Nebius has enjoyed a somewhat tepid re-entry to public life; it’s significantly down on its $18 billion market cap before trading halted in February 2022, which was to be expected, and it has since yo-yoed between $3.5 billion and $4.75 billion, with some signs that it is starting to settle. “We couldn’t predict what would happen, it could be $5 per share, or it could be $50 per share — this has never happened before, nobody really knows how to treat it,” Volozh told TechCrunch in an interview in London this month. “It’s still volatile, but it’s stabilizing, and the good thing is that it has stabilized above the cost of the assets, which means that the market believes we will be able to build a business here. How big a business, we’ll see.” Nebius competes with all the usual hyperscaler cloud behemoths, though arguably its more direct rivals are other alternative cloud startups such as CoreWeave, which has raised a ton of cash this year . With CoreWeave in the midst of expanding from the U.S. into Europe , Nebius is moving in the other direction, announcing plans this week to extend its presence to the U.S. with a new GPU cluster in Kansas City (on the Missouri side) scheduled to go live in early 2025. The company has also opened “customer hubs” in San Francisco and Dallas, with plans for a third in New York by the end of the year. But while the cloud infrastructure business is its bread and butter (accounting for two-thirds of its revenue, as per its first earnings report last month), there’s a triumvirate of additional businesses under the Nebius Group umbrella. This includes an autonomous vehicle company called Avride , based in Texas; a Swiss-based generative AI and LLM company called Toloka ; and edtech platform TripleTen , located in Wyoming. Drive time Avride descends from the international division of Yandex’s self-driving unit, which spun out of a joint venture with Uber in 2020. While Alphabet’s Waymo is now leading the way in the burgeoning robotaxi realm, recently securing a $45 billion valuation , Yandex was an early trailblazer in Russia , with Volozh noting that the company had been on the cusp of beating Waymo to launch the first fully autonomous cars on public roads, before the war put the kibosh on plans. “They [Yandex] were set to launch the first taxis on public roads with nobody at the wheel, in a real city (Moscow), several months before Waymo launched in San Francisco,” Volozh said. “Journalists were invited to a big event in March, ’22, but that launch never happened. People had to pack all their things and go in a matter of weeks.” The team that had been working on Yandex’s autonomous vehicle project transitioned over to Avride, a new brand it launched last year, eventually moving to Austin via Tel Aviv. “This is the same 250 people,” Volozh added. Last month, Avride announced a significant multiyear partnership with Uber, which saw Avride’s sidewalk food delivery robots land on Uber Eats starting in Austin , though the partnership will also bring Avride’s self-driving cars to the Uber platform later (Uber has signed other similar deals, including with Google’s sibling company Waymo ). While Yandex had sufficiently deep pockets to fund autonomous vehicle projects, Nebius doesn’t — it has a couple billion dollars in the bank from its Russian divestment, and it’s laser-focused on building its cloud infrastructure business. And this is why Volozh says that Avride will need to find additional partners in the longer term. “They have enough budget for this year and next year,” Volozh said. “We’re financing them, but they need to use this time to find new partners, because it’s very capital intensive to build fleets. It needs real investment.” Obvious partners might include car manufacturers, but it could be any entity that’s ready to invest billions, with Volozh adding that it would be willing to give up control in Avride if needed. Toloka, meanwhile, is a platform that specializes in data labeling and quality control for large language models (LLMs) and related AI systems — it’s much like Scale AI , which was most recently valued at more than $13 billion . Toloka has clear synergies with Nebius’s core infrastructure business, but the customers aren’t the same. Nebius works largely with generative AI startups seeking compute, whereas Toloka works with bigger companies such as Amazon and Hugging Face that want to improve their LLMs. Both Toloka and Avride could eventually follow a similar path to that of ClickHouse , creators of the eponymous open source database management system that spun out of Yandex in 2021 . While the commercial ClickHouse entity secured big-name backers such as Index Ventures, Benchmark Capital, and Coatue, Nebius has retained a minority stake. “ClickHouse became very popular, and we were approached by investment funds to create a business around the open source project. Now they have revenues, and they’re growing,” Volozh said. TripleTen, on the other hand, is something of an outlier in the Nebius group of businesses, in that it’s pretty much a direct-to-consumer product that offers online coding bootcamps for those wishing to transition into the technology sector. One idea Nebius is dabbling with is to position itself as a provider of a “full stack of services” to AI companies, from data centers and GPU infrastructure, to education. And this highlights the situation that Nebius has found itself in: It’s drawing lines between the different entities it has been left with, and trying to make it all make sense. For now, TripleTen is breaking even, and Volozh acknowledges that it’s not going to be the big revenue driver that its infrastructure business is — but it has the potential to provide meaningful income and will remain part of the Nebius Group. “Nebius is a billion-dollar scale business,” Volozh said. “TripleTen — it’s a nice model, but it’s maybe a tens or hundreds-of-millions of dollars business. It’s not a billion-dollar business.” Parallel compute As for the core Nebius AI cloud business, the company already has its fully owned data center facility in Finland, with plans to triple its capacity to 75 megawatts. In tandem, the company is building out additional sites at co-location facilities, a move designed to not only increase its capacity, but also to reduce latency by bringing the processing closer to its customers. In addition to the Kansas location announced this week, Nebius had already unveiled a new GPU cluster in Paris that goes online this month. Further down the line, Nebius plans to build more of its own data centers, both in Europe and the U.S., but given the time it takes, it’s quicker to plug the gap with co-location facilities, which is why it’s forging ahead with a hybrid approach. “It’s more efficient if we build it ourselves, but to build means a year and a half or two years — it’s a long process, and we can’t wait,” Volozh said. “That’s why we have these co-locations in Paris and Kansas City.”
Franklin Resources Inc. Has $1.16 Million Position in Collegium Pharmaceutical, Inc. (NASDAQ:COLL)
NEW YORK (AP) — Police don’t know who he is, where he is, or why he did it. As the frustrating search for UnitedHealthcare killer got underway for a fifth day Sunday, investigators reckoned with a tantalizing contradiction: They have troves of evidence, but the shooter remains an enigma. One conclusion they are confident of, however: It was a , not a random one. They know he ambushed Thompson at 6:44 a.m. Wednesday as the executive arrived at the Hilton for his company’s annual investor conference, using a 9 mm pistol that resembled the guns farmers use to put down animals without causing a loud noise. They know ammunition found near Thompson’s body “delay,” “deny” and “depose,” mimicking a phrase used by . The fact that the shooter knew UnitedHealthcare group was holding a conference at the hotel and what route Thompson might take to get there suggested that he could possibly be a disgruntled employee or client, NYPD Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny said. Police divers were seen searching a pond in Central Park, where the killer fled after the shooting. Officers have been scouring the park for days for any and found his backpack there Friday. They didn’t immediately reveal what, if anything, it contained but said it would be tested and analyzed. On Sunday morning, police declined to comment on the contents of the backpack, or on the results of the search in the pond, saying no updates were planned. Investigators have urged patience, saying the process of logging evidence that stands up in court isn’t as quick as it . Hundreds of detectives are combing through video recordings and social media, vetting tips from the public and interviewing people who might have information, including Thompson’s family and coworkers and the shooter’s randomly assigned roommates at the Manhattan hostel where he stayed. Investigators caught a break when they came across security camera images of an unguarded moment at the hostel in which he briefly showed his face. Retracing the gunman’s steps using surveillance video, police say, it appears he left the city by bus soon after the shooting outside the New York Hilton Midtown. He was seen on video at an uptown bus station about 45 minutes later, Kenny said. With the high-profile search expanding across state lines, the FBI announced late Friday that it was offering a $50,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction, adding to a reward of up to $10,000 that the NYPD has offered. Police say they believe the suspect acted alone. Police distributed the images to news outlets and on social media but so far haven’t been able to ID him using facial recognition — possibly because of the angle of the images or limitations on how the NYPD is allowed to use that technology, Kenny said. Late Saturday, police released two additional photos of the suspected shooter that appeared to be from a camera mounted inside a taxi. The first shows him outside the vehicle and the second shows him looking through the partition between the back seat and the front of the cab. In both, his face is partially obscured by a blue, medical-style mask. Michael R.

1,894 Shares in NVIDIA Co. (NASDAQ:NVDA) Acquired by Graham Capital Wealth Management LLCHow Trump’s Immigration Policy And 14th Amendment Policy Could Impact Millions
The British Columbia Hockey League hosted a special board of governors meeting this week to discuss ways to deal with the recent NCAA eligibility change, but one thing they didn't discuss was rejoining Hockey Canada. The league has seen a number of players depart the league this month for the Canadian Hockey League – or other major junior leagues – due to the NCAA's ruling on Nov. 7 that players suiting up in any of the three CHL leagues could continue on at the NCAA level. Prior to that decision, those who played in the CHL were not able to play at the NCAA level due to those leagues being considered semi-professional. The BCHL left Hockey Canada in 2023 and became an independent league. The mission at that time was to create a world-class junior league for players seeking NCAA and U Sports scholarships. It allowed the BCHL to recruit from a larger pool of players, as under Hockey Canada they could not recruit as heavily from other provinces and parts of the world. The BCHL also stated in 2023 that all player fees would be eliminated by the 2024-25 season. According to Jesse Adamson, the director of communications for the BCHL, discussions about linking back with Hockey Canada are not on the table. "Being an independent league puts us in a much better situation to handle this change as it gives our league the autonomy to make regulation changes to adapt to the new landscape," he told Black Press Media. "Our governors are still very happy with the decision to become independent." The BCHL issed a press release on Friday morning (Nov. 22), stating that only a small percentage of players have left the league and other players have been brought in to replace them. They also reiterated that the BCHL has always been about player choice. Unlike the CHL, the BCHL does not hold a draft or tell players where to play. Players are recruited and can choose their own destination from the start of their junior hockey career. "There’s no doubt that this rule change has altered the landscape of junior hockey, but as our league has always done, we will adapt to the new regulations and continue to thrive,” stated BCHL commissioner Steven Cocker. "We will always be in favour of athletes doing what they think is best for their development.” BCHL board chairman Richard Murphy said he believes that, despite the changing landscape, the BCHL is still the best path for players to develop into NCAA Division I hockey players. He added that the league will continue to produce college-bound athletes for years to come. The release stated that the BCHL’s mandate going forward remains: unity and growth, players' choice, academics, independence, and meeting the needs of its athletes and of NCAA Division I programs. following the meeting with more information. The FAQ states that the league has had multiple meetings with NCAA Division I programs and conferences and they all feel that this decision will not make the BCHL irrelevant. The FAQ added that the BCHL's high academic standards also makes players from the league more easy to recruit into the NCAA. , with the West Kelowna Warriors and Penticton Vees both losing two. The Vees put out a statement on Friday (Nov. 22) after losing forward Casey Brown and defenceman Julien Wasmer to the CHL. “Casey came to us with a personal issue. He felt being closer to his family would be best and we fully support and respect his decision. We wish him all the best in Moose Jaw," said Fred Harbinson, Vees president, general manager and head coach "We are a few weeks away from getting two 20-year-old defencemen back from injury, and coupled with the outstanding play of our two young defencemen, Julien understood his role was going to be reduced. He looked for an opportunity with another team, rather than compete for a more favourable spot on our roster." Other players who have moved on since the decision include: Lukas McCloskey (Vernon Vipers), Robin Benoit (Sherwood Park Crusaders), Linden Burrett (Cowichan Valley Capitals), Thomas Belzil (Powell River Kings) and Liam Beamish (Salmon Arm Silverbacks).
Spain's monarch pays tribute to the victims of Valencia floods in his Christmas Eve speechWhat’s Happening With Litecoin? Here’s Why AVAX and Lightchain AI Are New Year Favorites
Who can ever guess that the legendary singer is 91-years-old. The veteran singer recently did a live concert and also broke into dance to a viral song from this year. She was seen singing 'Tauba Tauba' from the film 'Bad Newz' that starred Vicky Kaushal in the led. The actor's smooth moves in the song had gone viral on social media leading many to imitate the move. Now, with the year ending, Bhosle has done the cutest version of the hookstep. Dressed in a saree, Asha Bhosle looked elegant as ever as she mesmerised the audience with her voice. She began signing the viral Karan Aujla song 'Tauba Tauba'. After singing few lines, she stepped away from the mic and started doing the hookstep in the most adorable manner with a smile on her face. The video was shared by Bosco Martis who choreographed the song for the film 'Bad Newz' featuring Vicky Kaushal. Karan Aujla reacts to Asha Bhosle's performance was beyond thrilled to watch Bhosle sing a song sung and written by him. Taking to Instagram stories, the singer who is currently touring in India wrote, "@asha.bhosle ji The living Goddess of music, just performed Tauba Tauba. A song written by a kid that grew up in a small village, with no music background and no knowledge of musical instruments. A melody made by someone who doesn't play any instrument. This song has received a lot of love and recognition amongst not only fans but also music artists, but this moment is truly iconic and one I will never forget." "I am truly blessed and thankful. This has really inspired me to keep giving you all such melodies and create more memories together," he added. He also shared the video of Asha Bhosle singing the song in his Instagram stories and wrote, "I wrote it at 27. She sang it at 91 better than me". Meanwhile, Aujla is currently in India doing concerts across the country.

The Panthers secured their seventh straight crown and ninth overall as the program finishes the season with a 19-2 mark. Middlebury manufactured a great opportunity on the first penalty corner with 5:49 elapsed. Grace Keefe blasted a rising shot off an insert that Tufts goalie Lydia Eastburn deflected away with her blocker. The Jumbos countered at the 6:36 mark as Claire Gavin took a redirection off a Panther stick and raced toward the left side of the cage. Goalie Madeline DiLemme thwarted Gavin's backhanded attempt to keep the score 0-0. The Panthers had two final chances in the opening quarter off penalty corner inserts from Caroline Segal. Each shot attempt from Emily Stone (9:39) and Megan Fuqua (14:32) was blocked by Jumbo defenders as the score read 0-0 after one. Middlebury continued its relentless pressure just 50 seconds into the second stanza. Georgianne Defeo grabbed possession in a group of Jumbos and Panthers and blasted a bid toward the left post that was stopped by Eastburn. Lilly Branka nearly put the Panthers ahead at the 18:18 mark by sliding around two Tufts defenders on the endline and launching a bid near the left post. Eastburn stood her ground, pinning herself to the post and knocking the bid away. Lainie Person looked to put the Jumbos on the board just 2:04 into the second half, but her bid sailed wide left. Middlebury took the lead with 2:10 left on its first shot of the second half. Branka dribbled the ball near the Tufts endline and flicked a pass toward the middle of the cage. Segal sprawled out and tapped the ball in while diving to the ground for the 1-0 edge. The Panthers extended their lead at the 50:44 mark. Claire McMichael ran down the right side of the field and slid a pass toward the middle of the circle. Eastburn came off her line to kick the ball away, but Defeo got to the ball a second earlier and poked it underneath Eastburn's pads to make it 2-0. Tufts responded 22 seconds later off a penalty corner. Kylie Rosenquest found the cage after a great pass from Pearson to cut the deficit to one with 8:54 showing on the clock. Tufts tried to muster up some momentum, but Middlebury's defense stepped up to the task, not allowing a single shot over the remainder of action to earn the 2-1 triumph. Branka was named the NCAA Tournament's Most Outstanding Player after tallying two assists during the playoffs. Branka also earned a spot on the all-tournament squad alongside Amy Griffin (2G, 2A), Keefe (1G, 1A) and Segal (6G, 1A). With one goal today, Segal moves into fifth all-time in single-season points (57). Her tally is her fifth game-winner this season and the 10th of her career. Segal's marker caps her season with 24 goals, which is tied for fifth in program history over one campaign. The Panthers close the season with 105 goals scored, good for second all-time behind the 107 scored by the 2022 and 2023 National Championship teams. Tufts and Middlebury battled for the 35th time and the fourth time in the NCAA Tournament. The Panthers have won each of the last two meetings in the postseason, including a 2-0 victory in the 2018 title tilt. Middlebury made its 21st postseason appearance and played in the championship game for the 13th time. This marked the fifth time that the NCAA Championship took place between a pair of NESCAC squads. The Panthers have appeared in each of those five contests, claiming three of them. Middlebury caps the season with a 19-2 record, marking the 13th-consecutive season that the program has tallied 15 or more triumphs.
Super Micro Computer Sank Amid Financial Reporting Troubles in Recent Months. Could the Stock Become the Biggest Recovery Story of 2025? - The Motley FoolSuper Micro Computer ( SMCI 11.62% ) shareholders have been through a whirlwind lately. While the stock is up 1,480% in the last two years, it has also fallen over 70% from its record high in the last eight months. As one of Nvidia 's largest partners, the server maker should benefit as demand for artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure increases, but Supermicro has also been accused of accounting manipulation. Among the 12 analysts who follow the company, the median 12-month price target of $30.50 per share implies an 8% downside from its current share price of $33. That means six analysts think the stock will fall more than 8% in the next year. Additionally, 19 analysts followed Supermicro three months ago, meaning seven have recently discontinued coverage. Wall Street is clearly shying away from the company. Here are the important details. The bull case: Supermicro is a leading supplier of AI servers Super Micro Computer builds servers, including full server racks equipped with storage and networking that provide customers with a turnkey solution for data center infrastructure. Its internal manufacturing capabilities and "building block" approach to product development let it bring new technologies to market more quickly than its competitors, often by two to six months. Indeed, earlier this year, Rosenblatt analyst Hans Mosesmann wrote, "Super Micro has developed a model that is very, very quick to market. They usually have the widest portfolio of products when a new product comes out." Those advantages have helped Supermicro secure a leadership position in AI servers, a market forecast to grow at 30% annually through 2033, according to Statista. Importantly, Supermicro is also the top supplier of direct liquid cooling (DLC) systems, which could help the company strengthen its position in AI servers. DLC systems reduce data center power consumption by 40% and occupy 80% less space than traditional air-cooled systems. AI servers generate more heat than general-purpose servers, so demand for DLC systems is expected to rise quickly. Indeed, while less than 1% of data centers have historically used liquid cooling, Supermicro estimates 15% (and maybe as many as 30%) of new data center installations will use liquid cooling in the next two years, and the company says it is positioned to "capture the majority share of that growth." The bear case: Supermicro is beset by problems As mentioned, while Supermicro shares are up 1,480% in the last two years, the stock has also nosedived more than 70% from its record high in the last eight months. Below is a month-by-month timeline detailing the events that led to that rapid decline in value. August 2024: Short-seller Hindenburg Research published a report accusing Supermicro of accounting violations, including improper revenue recognition, undisclosed related party transactions, and sanctions evasion. Subsequently, Supermicro delayed filing its Form 10-K for fiscal 2024 , but CEO Charles Liang said the Hindenburg report contained "false or inaccurate statements." September 2024: The Wall Street Journal reported that Supermicro was being probed by the Justice Department after a former employee filed a lawsuit accusing the company of accounting violations, some of which were mentioned in the Hindenburg report. Supermicro also got a letter of noncompliance from the Nasdaq Exchange , saying it had 60 days to file its 10-K or submit a plan to restore compliance. October 2024: Supermicro's auditor, Ernst & Young, resigned. "We are resigning due to information that has recently come to our attention which has led us to no longer be able to rely on management's and the Audit Committee's representations," the company wrote in its resignation letter. Ernst & Young also said it was "unwilling to be associated with the financial statements prepared by management." November 2024: Supermicro delayed its Form 10-Q for the first quarter of fiscal 2025. But the company hired BDO as its new auditor and submitted a compliance plan to Nasdaq before the deadline, saying it would become current with its filings in a timely manner. Now, the Nasdaq must either approve or reject that plan. The situation is even more complicated than what I've just described because Supermicro was accused of similar accounting violations in the past. At that time, the company filed its Form 10-K for fiscal 2017 almost two years late and was fined $17.5 million by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) . Supermicro was also delisted from the Nasdaq Exchange for about 18 months, though shares advanced 73% during that period anyway. Investors should avoid Supermicro stock right now Supermicro shares could soar if the wrongdoings outlined by Hindenburg are found to be inaccurate and then nothing comes of the Justice Department probe. But investors should be at least a little skeptical, given that the SEC has fined the company for similar violations in the past, and Hindenburg says Supermicro has rehired three senior employees involved in the previous scandal. In that context, I think prospective investors should avoid this stock right now. There are simply too many unknowns to make an educated decision, which probably explains why seven out of 19 Wall Street analysts discontinued coverage during the last three months. It may also explain why the remaining 12 analysts have set the stock with a median price target that implies an 8% downside.
Commerce Bank Trims Stock Position in Live Nation Entertainment, Inc. (NYSE:LYV)In a show of confidence, Clement Stambuli, a senior member of the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), claimed that over 70 percent of Lilongwe residents will vote for DPP leader, Professor Peter Mutharika, in the upcoming elections. Stambuli made these remarks while speaking at a DPP rally in Lilongwe. His prediction is supported by a recent Afrobarometer survey, which indicates that the DPP is gaining momentum ahead of the elections. The survey’s findings suggest that the party’s message is resonating with voters, particularly in urban areas like Lilongwe. Chimwemwe Chipungu, DPP’s presidential advisor on organisation, also spoke at the rally, urging Malawians to avoid tribalism in the next general elections and instead vote for a party with a clear developmental agenda for the country. With the elections drawing near, the DPP is intensifying its campaign efforts, and Stambuli’s remarks are expected to boost the party’s morale and momentum in the Lilongwe region. Malawians are increasingly expressing frustration with President Lazarus Chakwera’s administration, citing unfulfilled campaign promises, a high cost of living, and economic hardship. Many feel that Chakwera’s government has failed to deliver on its promises, leading to widespread disillusionment and a growing desire for change. As the elections approach, it remains to be seen whether the DPP will capitalize on this discontent and secure a victory.
The Allied Conservative Congress (ACC) has expressed the need for patriotism by Nigerians, saying the need for patriotism cannot be overemphasized in this trying period of our nationhood. In a statement issued by the national chairman of the party, Rev. Olusegun Peters, to felicitate with Nigerians on the occasion of the celebration of Christmas, he enjoined Nigerians to set aside their differences and join hands with ACC in building a better, stronger and prosperous democratic nation that future generations will be proud of. “ACC will alleviate the sufferings of the populace by providing the fruits of democracy that will revamp the economy and usher in prosperity and sustainable development. “This is in tandem with Section 14(2)b of the 1999 Constitution as amended, which states that, ‘the security and welfare of the people shall be the primary purpose of government.’ Nigerians desire and deserve a good deal from their governments,” he said. He called for a conservative ideology, which the Allied Conservative Congress champions. “We commend millions of Nigerians for embracing the ACC conservative ideology. It is the panacea to multifarious political, economic and social challenges citizens face. As more Nigerians embrace the conservative ideology of integrity, morality, patriotism etc, in place of personal aggrandizement that breeds corruption, violence and bad governance, Nigeria will regain its lost glory,” he added.Nordstrom family to take chain private in $6.25 billion deal
