Iran conflict: US embassy warns of possible Abuja protests

The United States embassy in Abuja has warned its citizens about the possibility of protests in Nigeria’s capital linked to the ongoing conflict between the US and Iran. In a security alert, the embassy said there is a high potential for demonstrations in Abuja on Wednesday, March 4, 2026, noting that previous protests by some groups have led to violent clashes with Nigerian security forces. The embassy advised US citizens in Abuja to remain in their homes on that day, avoid protest areas and large gatherings, and maintain a low profile while monitoring local media for updates. It also urged them to review their personal security plans, keep their phones charged, carry valid identification, and stay alert in public spaces such as markets, malls, and places of worship. The embassy further encouraged citizens to familiarise themselves with emergency exits in […]

FG begins payment of delayed February salaries, blames technical glitch

The Federal Government has commenced payment of February 2026 salaries to treasury funded workers after days of delay that sparked anxiety among civil servants. The Office of the Accountant General of the Federation said the delay was caused by a technical glitch in the salary payment system, which has now been fixed, with measures put in place to prevent a recurrence. According to the statement by OAGF spokesperson Bawa Mokwa, payment of February salaries started on Monday, March 2, with workers expected to receive alerts as banks process the transactions. The office also confirmed that one month out of the outstanding wage award arrears has been paid, as part of efforts to cushion the impact of economic reforms on federal workers. Officials noted that federal salaries are usually credited before the end of the month and apologised for the inconvenience caused by […]

Army intercepts 296 wraps of suspected cannabis in Ogun

Troops of the Nigerian Army’s 35 Artillery Brigade, Alamala Barracks, Abeokuta, have intercepted 296 large wraps of substances suspected to be cannabis sativa in Ogun State.​ The suspects were arrested during a stop and search operation along a major route in the state, after soldiers became suspicious of a commercial vehicle and ordered a thorough inspection.​ According to the army, the illicit substances were carefully concealed in multiple compartments of the vehicle in a bid to evade security checks.​ The driver and one other occupant were taken into custody after allegedly failing to provide satisfactory explanations or valid documentation for the consignment.​ Preliminary findings suggest the drugs were being transported from a border community for distribution to other parts of the southwest.​ The army said the seized wraps and suspects will be handed over to the National Drug Law Enforcement […]

Fed Govt begins implementing salary agreement with ASUU

The Federal Government has begun implementing key welfare provisions in its 2025 renegotiated agreement with the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU). Education Minister Maruf Tunji Alausa said the government has fulfilled its obligation to implement a 40 percent increase in the Consolidated Academic Allowance (CAA) for ASUU members, effective from January 1, 2026. He explained that some federal universities have already reflected the new rates in lecturers’ pay, while others are being directed to fully cascade the approved increment across their payroll so all eligible academic staff benefit. The minister added that the increase has been captured and circularised by the National Salaries, Incomes and Wages Commission and that its inclusion in the 2026 budget is now a formal statutory process. Beyond CAA, Alausa said implementation of the Consolidated Tools Allowance (CATA) and other agreed welfare components is also […]

Bonny Light hits 80 as US Israel strikes on Iran rattle oil markets

Nigeria’s Bonny Light crude has climbed to around 80 dollars per barrel as United States and Israeli strikes on Iran deepen tensions and disrupt energy trade routes. The price spike follows days of gains driven by fears that fighting involving Iran, a key Gulf producer, could choke shipments through the Strait of Hormuz, which handles about 20 percent of global oil flows. Traders and analysts said many tanker owners, oil majors and commodity houses have reduced or suspended movements of crude, fuel and liquefied natural gas through the narrow waterway, increasing demand for alternative grades like Bonny Light. Bonny Light, prized for its low sulphur content and suitability for gasoline and jet fuel production, has benefitted as buyers seek supplies less exposed to direct Gulf risks. The surge comes against the backdrop of Nigeria’s 2026 budget, which is benchmarked at […]

Acting Inspector General of Police Olatunji Disu has placed all police commands across Nigeria on red alert in response to escalating tensions in the Middle East.

Commissioners of Police in all 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory, with special focus on the North West, North East and North Central, have been directed to heighten surveillance and intelligence gathering. They are also to strengthen collaboration with traditional and religious leaders, increase visibility policing around worship centres and public […]
