From official LALIGA merchandise and VIP matchdays to an exclusive Madrid experience for four winners, Rise is bringing a full season of rewards to its traders through its regional partnership with LALIGA.

Dubai, United Arab Emirates, November 2nd, 2026-  Rise, the trading app from INGOT Group, is kicking off a season of exclusive rewards, including an unmissable experience with LALIGA player Ivan Rakitić, as an official regional partner of LALIGA across the Middle East and North Africa, running throughout the 2026/27 season.

A Full Season of LALIGA Rewards

Throughout the season, the partnership brings traders a range of exclusive rewards: official LALIGA merchandise, club jerseys, signed balls, VIP match tickets and unforgettable travel experiences, with different opportunities available along the way.

 “A lot of brands treat a LALIGA partnership as a single moment. We built ours to run through the whole season, so our traders get something new at every stage, from the merchandise they collect early on to a trip like Madrid later,” said Ahmad Khawanky, Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer at Rise.

One First Trade, A Season of Opportunities

Taking part begins with a first trade on Rise. That trade gives traders an entry into the LALIGA exclusive rewards draws: if it doesn’t go as expected, Rise refunds up to $100; if it’s successful, the trader keeps the profit. Terms and conditions apply.

From there, the rewards change throughout the season, so one simple starting point can open the door to different LALIGA opportunities as the campaign gets bigger. And the latest activation takes things a step further.

Four Winners Head to Madrid

Entries for Rise’s biggest LALIGA experience run from 14 September to 14 October, with four winners announced on 15 October.

On the weekend of 8 November, the winners travel to Madrid, with flights and accommodation covered, for a VIP experience at Atlético de Madrid vs Barcelona, one of the season’s most anticipated fixtures.

Before kick-off, they enjoy full VIP hospitality, watch the players arrive, head pitch-side and tour the stadium behind the scenes, access most fans never get. They will also sit down with Ivan Rakitić to talk football.

“You can give anyone a match ticket, but the experience around it can make the day completely different,” said Jennifer Van De Vooren, Deputy Chief Marketing Officer at Rise. “Going pitch-side, seeing what happens before kick-off and sitting down with Ivan Rakitić are moments a ticket alone can’t give you, and we’re glad to offer them to our traders.”

The Madrid trip is the partnership’s biggest experience so far, with more exclusive rewards to come throughout the 2026/27 season. Visit traderise.com/laliga for more.

From the shadow of a titan to the light of his own leadership, the Project Director of Pipeline Infrastructure Nigeria Limited is honouring his father’s name by building something worthy of it.

ABUJA, Nigeria, October 30, 2026 — Some men leave behind buildings. Others leave behind a name. Rarer still are those who leave behind a son who understands that a name is not a monument to be admired, but a lamp to be carried through the dark.

Dr. Osahon Okunbo, Project Director of Pipeline Infrastructure Nigeria Limited (PINL), investor, philanthropist and patron of the arts, is that son. At 39, he is writing a chapter his late father, Captain Idahosa “Hosa” Wells Okunbo, would have read with quiet pride.

A Father’s Long Road

Born in Benin City on 7 January 1958, Captain Idahosa Wells Okunbo walked a road that few could have mapped and fewer still could have followed. From 1983 until his passing in 2021, he built enterprises the way great men build anything: patiently, boldly, and with his eyes fixed on the people those enterprises would serve. He became a titan of Nigerian industry, a name spoken with respect in the marine, hospitality and energy sectors, and a billionaire whose wealth was always outweighed by his reputation for generosity.

When he died in London on 8 August 2021, aged 63, a nation paused. Tributes poured in from the highest offices in the land. He was laid to rest in Benin City amid eulogies that dwelt less on what he owned than on how he lived. His first son, Osahon, told mourners that his father’s life was guided by two principles: love and mercy.

It is a rare inheritance. It cannot be banked, and it cannot be bought. It can only be chosen, again and again, by the one who receives it.

The Mantle, Worn with Grace

Born in Benin City on 3 June 1987 and schooled at the University of Manchester and the Lagos Business School, Osahon Okunbo did not wait for grief to harden into hesitation. He stepped forward. Today, he chairs Wells Carlton Hotels & Apartments in Abuja, and carries more than fifteen years of leadership across energy, power, hospitality, agriculture and aviation.

He does not wear his father’s legacy as a crown. He wears it as a responsibility, and as a seed. Recently, he stood on the farm his father started in Benin, walked its rows with his team, and reflected that farming teaches quickly that there are no shortcuts. It is a lesson his father lived, and one the son has made his own.

This is the quiet triumph of Osahon Okunbo: he has not merely inherited a legacy, he has earned it, each day, in the way a son earns the pride of a father who has gone ahead. The man his father was always proud of is no longer only a promise. He is a presence.

Steady Hands at the Heart of the Pipeline

At PINL, the work is vast. Pipelines are the arteries of a nation’s energy, and the responsibilities entrusted to the company by the Nigerian government are many, weighty and unrelenting. Such volume can intoxicate a lesser leader. It has not touched Osahon Okunbo.

He leads the way a gardener tends a field: with patience, with order, and with respect for the people who work it. Under his direction, PINL has embraced technology and discipline in equal measure, including drone feeds from its camps streaming live into a central security and operations centre, so that vigilance is never a slogan but a system.

His steadiness reaches beyond the fence line. In recognition of his contributions to community engagement and stability in the oil-producing region, the Owaza community in Ukwa West Local Government Area of Abia State conferred a chieftaincy title on him. It is proof that infrastructure and humanity can walk the same road, and that a young leader can be measured not only by what he builds, but by who trusts him to build it.

A Chorus of Recognition

The nation has noticed. Honours that are rarely gathered by one hand have found their way to his:

Young Entrepreneur of the Year, 2024, New Telegraph Awards, for entrepreneurial acumen and major contributions to Nigeria’s oil and gas industry.

Young Entrepreneur Awardee, 2025, Vanguard Awards, celebrating a visionary whose work, in the paper’s words, defies simple categorization.

Emerging Leader in Philanthropy, Humanitarian Service Diamond (HSD) Awards, for service to humanity through the Osahon Okunbo Foundation.

Chieftaincy title, Owaza community, Abia State, in recognition of his role in peace and community development.

Commending the Vanguard recognition, Agbonifo described him as “a true pacesetter and an achiever.” Awards do not make a man. But when they arrive in a chorus, they confirm what those closest to the work already know.

Wealth as a Verb

For Osahon Okunbo, success is something you do, not something you keep. Through The Osahon Okunbo Foundation (TOOF), he has reached more than 5,000 beneficiaries, and he is nurturing African creativity through support for the visual arts, film, performance and creative education. Through Vetrinox Capital, he deploys capital into Nigerian businesses with clear metrics, turning belief in the country into measurable growth.

Energy and culture, power and poetry: he works at the meeting point of the forces that shape nations.

Accepting his philanthropy honour, he named the thread that runs through it all: “One of the principles I learnt from my father is investing in humanity.”

The son has heard the father. And the father, wherever he now rests, has every reason to smile.

About Dr. Osahon Okunbo

Dr. Osahon Okunbo is a Nigerian entrepreneur and investor who builds infrastructure across energy, capital and culture. He is Project Director of Pipeline Infrastructure Nigeria Limited (PINL), Chairman of Wells Carlton Hotels & Apartments, Abuja, and Founder of The Osahon Okunbo Foundation (TOOF). He is an alumnus of the University of Manchester and the Lagos Business School, and the son of the late Captain Idahosa “Hosa” Wells Okunbo.

The Son Who Carried the Flame: Osahon Okunbo and the Making of a Young Visionary

Aussie Vape Pods expands its nationwide catalog of authentic refillable pod kits and nicotine salt e-liquids, giving everyday Australians a smarter, more affordable alternative to single-use disposables.

Sydney, Australia, 2nd Nov 2026— Rising cost-of-living pressures are driving a massive behavioral shift among Australian consumers, who are increasingly moving away from single-use disposable devices in favor of more economical, open-system refillable pod vapes. In response to this growing structural shift, Aussie Vape Pods has introduced an updated catalog of premium refillable pod kits and specialized nicotine salt configurations designed to optimize device longevity and reduce annual consumer spending by as much as $2,400.

Data from recent retail analyses shows that switching from traditional disposable options to a dedicated refillable pod system can deliver significant annual savings for everyday consumers. At approximately $0.80 per day for nic salt refills versus $12–$15 per disposable, the economic case is clear — and it is a major reason behind the rapid adoption of low-voltage open systems across all major Australian states and territories. To streamline this transition, the team at Aussie Vape Pods has secured direct stock allocations for top-tier, leakproof hardware models, all of which are available to browse via the online vape store.

Featured Pod Kits Now Available Australia-Wide

The current inventory expansion features highly rated, authentic hardware options renowned for clean flavor delivery, advanced mesh coil technology, and long battery life with convenient USB-C fast charging. Featured setups include:

• Vaporesso XROS 3 — Tight MTL draw, 45-minute charge, top-fill pods
• Vaporesso XROS Mini — Ultra-compact stealth design, ideal for on-the-go use
• Uwell Caliburn G3 — Consistent flavor, no burnt hits, cigarette-style draw
• Uwell Caliburn AK3 — Entry-level simplicity with premium mesh coil performance
• OXVA XLIM Pro — Adjustable airflow, 10-day pod life, versatile nic salt compatibility

These devices make a practical and reliable choice for anyone searching for the best pod vapes Australia has to offer in 2026.

Industry Expert Commentary

“Many users do not realise how much they are overspending on temporary disposable options until they actually look at the maths,” said a product specialist at Aussie Vape Pods. “A quality refillable setup typically pays for itself within the first two weeks of use. By combining these advanced pod systems with premium nic salt e-liquid refills, consumers get a much cleaner experience while keeping thousands of dollars back in their pockets each year.”

For shoppers still weighing their options, the brand’s editorial team has published an in-depth guide — Choosing a Vape in Australia: Safety, Suitability, and the Rules to Know — covering everything from device selection to current regulations.

Same-Day Express Dispatch Across Australia

To support this nationwide hardware rollout, the storefront has implemented an expedited dispatch protocol to ensure consistent delivery timelines for shoppers looking for dependable vapes online Australia retailers. Orders finalised before the daily 2:00 PM AEST cutoff receive same-day post processing from centralised domestic hubs, with fast transit lanes to major metropolitan areas including Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, and Adelaide.

Encrypted Checkout and Discreet Delivery

To address common transactional privacy concerns, the platform utilises an encrypted checkout architecture alongside complete discreet fulfilment. Every order is dispatched in 100 percent plain, unbranded satchels — zero logos, branding, or store markings visible on the exterior parcel. The storefront also applies a generic billing descriptor to safeguard user privacy on bank and credit card statements.
