March 2025 Highlights – What You Missed This Month

March was a busy month on FSP Health and Fitness News Africa. From a Nigerian philanthropist being honored by the U.S. president to a Kenyan governor getting the boot, the headlines were packed with drama. Sports fans also got their fair share of excitement, with a global football star throwing a fit and a Scottish club suffering a surprising loss. Let’s break down the top stories you need to know.

Humanitarian Triumphs and Political Shifts

Dr. Aisha Achimugu, a well‑known Nigerian industrialist, grabbed international attention when President Biden handed her the Lifetime Achievement Award. The accolade recognized her work with the Sam Empowerment Foundation, which focuses on education, poverty reduction, and health initiatives across Nigeria and even in the United States. Achimugu’s plans to expand the foundation’s reach show she’s not pulling back after the award.

In Kenya, the Milimani High Court confirmed the impeachment of Meru Governor Kawira Mwangaza. The court said the Senate followed the constitution, giving Mwangaza a proper hearing before voting him out. With the decision final, Deputy Governor Isaac Mutuma M’Ethingia is likely to step in, signaling a new direction for Meru County’s leadership.

Sports Drama Across Continents

Over in the Saudi Pro League, Cristiano Ronaldo made headlines for all the wrong reasons. After Al‑Nassr was handed a red card for Jhon Durán late in a 3‑2 loss to Al‑Ettifaq, Ronaldo erupted on the pitch. He shouted, gestured, and even threatened a yellow card for himself, but the referee only issued a warning. Fans and analysts are debating whether his reaction helped or hurt the team’s chances.

Back in Europe, Rangers faced a shocking 2‑0 defeat at home against St Mirren. The loss deepened frustration among the Rangers faithful, especially with the club dealing with ownership talks and a widening gap behind Celtic. The game also featured a controversial downgraded red card that left many questioning the referee’s consistency.

So what does all this mean for you? If you’re tracking African philanthropy, Achimugu’s award highlights how African initiatives are gaining global recognition. The Meru impeachment shows that constitutional processes are still being tested in East Africa, and the outcome could set a precedent for future governance challenges.

On the sports side, Ronaldo’s outburst is a reminder that even the biggest stars can lose tempers under pressure, and that emotions can spill over onto the field. Meanwhile, Rangers’ defeat serves as a wake‑up call for clubs that complacency can cost points, especially in tightly contested leagues.
