El Rufai Arrives Kaduna Court For Resumed Bail Hearing

Former Kaduna State governor Nasir El Rufai has arrived at the Federal High Court in Kaduna for the continuation of the hearing on his bail application. He was driven into the court premises at about 9am under tight security provided by police and Department of State Services operatives. Today’s sitting follows an earlier adjournment after the prosecution filed a counter affidavit opposing his bail request. The development had left El Rufai’s lawyers asking for more time to study the new documents, prompting the judge to shift the matter to Wednesday. El Rufai remains in the custody of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission as he faces multiple corruption related charges. The case has attracted heavy public interest, with access to parts of the court complex now restricted due to heightened security measures.

Tinubu Writes Senate, Seeks Approval To Borrow 5 Billion Dollars

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has written to the Nigerian Senate seeking approval to borrow an additional 5 billion dollars from external sources. The fresh request is part of the wider 2024–2026 external borrowing plan aimed at funding infrastructure and plugging budget deficits. In his letter to Senate President Godswill Akpabio, Tinubu said the new facility would support key sectors such as transport, power, agriculture, health and education. He argued that concessional and semi concessional loans remained vital to delivering priority projects at a time of revenue constraints. The Senate had earlier approved a 21.5 billion dollar external borrowing plan for the 2025–2026 period. The latest 5 billion dollar request is expected to be processed under the same framework once lawmakers subject it to committee scrutiny and debate. Tinubu’s government has defended its borrowing strategy as necessary to stimulate growth and […]

Kwankwaso’s Defection To ADC: APC A Threat To Democracy – Mark

National Chairman of the African Democratic Congress, David Mark, has described Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso’s defection to the ADC as a turning point for Nigeria’s democracy. He spoke in Abuja as the former Kano State governor was formally received into the party ahead of the 2027 general elections. Mark said Kwankwaso’s move was more than a simple change of platform. He framed it as a deliberate response to Nigerians’ calls for a cohesive opposition capable of safeguarding democratic values and providing a credible alternative to the ruling All Progressives Congress. The former Senate President accused the APC of posing the greatest threat to multiparty democracy in Nigeria. He warned that attempts to weaken opposition parties, shrink political space and concentrate power in one party were dangerous for the country’s future. According to Mark, the ADC is positioning itself as a rallying […]

INEC Recognises Abdulrahman Mohammed As PDP National Chairman

The Independent National Electoral Commission has recognised Abdulrahman Mohammed as the national chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party. The recognition follows recent court decisions and the outcome of the party’s latest convention in Abuja. INEC’s position aligns with a Federal High Court judgment which voided the party’s November 16, 2025 convention in Ibadan and affirmed the Abdulrahman led structure. The commission subsequently updated its records to reflect Mohammed and his team as the authorised PDP leadership. At the recent PDP convention, delegates endorsed Abdulrahman Mohammed and a 22 member National Working Committee through a consensus arrangement. The convention was largely driven by a bloc of the party loyal to the FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike. Other national officers returned alongside Mohammed include Samuel Anyanwu as national secretary and several deputies and financial officers. Party insiders say the new leadership has been […]

Fed Govt Tightens Airport Security With New Joint Screening System

The Federal Government has introduced a one stop joint screening system at Nigerian airports to strengthen security and reduce delays for travellers. The directive comes through the Office of the National Security Adviser and targets both international and domestic terminals. Under the new system, security checks by different agencies will be merged into a single, coordinated screening point. Immigration, customs, aviation security, and other security agencies will now work together at one checkpoint instead of stopping passengers multiple times. Officials say the goal is to close security gaps, curb touting, and make passenger movement more efficient. The change is also designed to bring Nigeria’s airports closer to international best practices in aviation security. According to Ahmadu Danjuma, Acting Regional Manager (North Central) for the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria, new X ray machines and L3 scanning devices have been installed […]
