Nigerians Ration Power, Queue For Fuel As Petrol Hits N1,500

Nigerians are facing a fresh wave of hardship as petrol prices climb to around N1,500 per litre in many parts of the country. The spike has come at a time of poor electricity supply, forcing households and businesses to ration power and battle long queues at filling stations. Over the past three weeks, the pump price of petrol has risen by more than N500 in some locations. In major cities, motorists report paying between N1,300 and N1,500 per litre, with some independent marketers selling even higher. The higher prices are linked to rising global crude oil costs, pressure on the naira, and Nigeria’s continued dependence on imported refined products. Labour unions, economists, and business groups warn that the situation is fuelling inflation, closing businesses, and worsening poverty. Many residents now limit generator use to a few hours at night or […]

Toyin Alausa Decries Online Harassment, Urges Respect For The Dead

Nollywood actress Toyin Alausa has condemned the growing wave of online harassment and the widespread sharing of disturbing content on social media.

Senegal Parade AFCON Trophy In France After Losing Title

Senegal have paraded the Africa Cup of Nations trophy at the Stade de France in Paris, even though the team have been stripped of their 2025 title.
