NMA rejects court ruling giving FCCPC power to probe medical negligence

The Nigerian Medical Association has rejected a Federal High Court ruling that affirmed the powers of the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission to investigate complaints of medical negligence. The court, in a judgment delivered in Abuja on April 15, upheld the FCCPC’s authority to probe healthcare providers over alleged failures in service. In a statement, the Lagos State branch chairman of the NMA, Dr Babajide Saheed, described the ruling as surprising and troubling. He argued that Nigerian law already gives the Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria exclusive responsibility for regulating medical practice, ethics and disciplinary cases, including negligence. Saheed warned that allowing an external agency such as the FCCPC to investigate medical negligence could create overlapping mandates, institutional clashes and inconsistent standards in handling sensitive healthcare matters. He said negligence cases often involve complex clinical issues that require […]

Court rejects FCCPC’s fresh bid to halt airtime lending

A Federal High Court has rejected a fresh attempt by the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission to stop airtime lending services run through major telecom networks. The ruling preserves an earlier interim injunction that protects airtime and data credit providers while a substantive suit on new lending rules is being heard. The case centres on the FCCPC’s 2025 Digital, Electronic, Online or Non Traditional Consumer Lending Regulations, which the commission wants to fully enforce across digital lenders, including Airtime Credit Service providers. Industry group Wireless Application Service Providers Association of Nigeria argues that the rules place heavy and conflicting burdens on telecom based lending services already regulated by the Nigerian Communications Commission. In its latest application, the FCCPC asked the court to lift or vary the injunction so it could proceed with implementation of the new regime. Justice Lewis […]

2027 polls: Supreme Court to decide PDP, ADC fate today

The Supreme Court will today deliver key judgments that will decide the fate of the Peoples Democratic Party and the African Democratic Congress ahead of the 2027 general elections. The apex court is set to rule on four appeals linked to leadership crises tearing through the two opposition parties. In the case of the PDP, the appeals centre on the validity of the party’s national convention held in Ibadan, Oyo State, on November 15 and 16, 2025. A faction led by former Vice President Atiku Abubakar is asking the court to uphold the convention and its decisions, while rival groups insist due process was not followed. Previous rulings from lower courts faulted the PDP for obtaining conflicting orders from courts of equal rank over its internal dispute. One Court of Appeal decision described the party’s actions as an abuse of […]

₦1m salary useless without stable Naira – NLC

The Nigeria Labour Congress says a monthly salary of 1 million naira is meaningless for workers without a stable currency and better economic conditions. NLC President Joe Ajaero said this in an interview in Abuja, stressing that workers are more concerned about the real value of their income than the figures on paper. Ajaero explained that rising inflation and the continuous fall of the naira have sharply reduced the purchasing power of workers. He noted that many employees struggle to afford basic needs such as food, transport, healthcare and housing, regardless of how high their nominal salary appears. According to him, what matters is not just wage increases but policies that can strengthen the naira and bring down the cost of living. He argued that without price stability and a stronger currency, even a 1 million naira monthly wage will […]
