Iran Slams Israel Killing of Hezbollah Military Chief

Iran has sharply condemned Israel following the assassination of Hezbollah’s senior military leader in Lebanon, calling it a direct breach of both international law and a November 2024 ceasefire agreement. Iranian officials described the attack as a “brutal breach of Lebanon’s national sovereignty” and accused Israel of deliberately escalating regional instability. State media quotes Iran’s Foreign Ministry calling for international accountability for Israel’s actions and expressing unwavering support for Hezbollah. Israeli officials claimed the killing was in response to repeated ceasefire violations by Hezbollah and said it was necessary to prevent future attacks against Israel. The incident has heightened regional fears, with Iran threatening consequences and reiterating that it will stand by its allies in Lebanon. The episode comes amid ongoing hostilities and tit-for-tat operations in the Middle East, highlighting deepening divisions after the deadly October 7 attacks.

Amnesty International Slams FG Over School Attacks in Nigeria

Amnesty International has condemned the Nigerian authorities for failing to protect schoolchildren amid a wave of abductions in the North, including the recent kidnapping of 315 students and staff from St. Mary’s Catholic Primary and Secondary Schools in Niger State. Country Director Isa Sanusi stated that the attacks underscore persistent security gaps and repeated government failures to learn from past incidents. Sanusi noted that over 230 Northern children are currently in captivity, while hundreds of schools in states like Katsina and Plateau remain closed due to attacks. He warned that many children, especially girls, have been forced out of school or married off for safety. Amnesty International accused authorities of neglect and called for urgent investigations into the attacks—potentially as war crimes or crimes against humanity—and for perpetrators to be prosecuted in fair trials. The group insists the right to […]

Afaglo Urges Mahama to Extend ORAL Mandate to Probe NPP Corruption Cases

A senior member of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Novihoho Afaglo, has called on President John Dramani Mahama to extend the mandate of the Operation Recover All Loot (ORAL) task force to further investigate corruption cases linked to former officials of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) administration. Afaglo praised the joint work of ORAL and the Attorney-General’s Department, calling their partnership vital in exposing alleged financial irregularities and misuse of state resources meant for national development. He stated that without ORAL’s vigilance, “Nana Akufo-Addo’s appointees could have stolen millions from the state unnoticed.” According to him, ongoing investigations initiated under Mahama’s administration have already revealed “significant wrongdoing that cannot be ignored.” Afaglo stressed that the current wave of revelations should serve as a warning to all serving public officials, urging them to remember that their roles are meant to uplift […]

Elikem Kotoko Wants Akufo-Addo Prosecuted Over National Cathedral ‘Organised Crime’ Allegations

Deputy Chief Executive Officer of the Forestry Commission, Elikem Kotoko, says he would welcome the sight of former President Nana Akufo-Addo being “hauled to court” over what he describes as financial irregularities and organised corruption linked to the construction of the National Cathedral. Speaking on JoyNews’ AM Show, Kotoko accused the former president of masterminding what he called “an organised crime unit set up to siphon or launder state funds” under the guise of a religious project. “Let me be frank with you, if wishes were horses, I would be happy to see even former president Nana Addo Dankwah Akufo-Addo being hauled to court to answer for that hole he dug, which seems to be an organised crime unit that he set up to siphon or launder state funds,” he said. Kotoko drew a sharp contrast between Akufo-Addo’s actions and […]

Nigeria Launches 2025 Transparency Index for Government Agencies

The Nigerian government has launched the 2025 Transparency and Integrity Index (TII), a tool designed to promote accountability and ethical standards across all Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs). Announced by the Bureau of Public Service Reforms (BPSR), the index will assess MDAs on five key areas: financial management, control of corruption, open procurement, citizen engagement, and inclusive human resource practices. The Director-General of BPSR, Mr. Dasuki Arabi, stated that the TII is not just about rankings but about building a culture of openness that inspires public trust. Now in its fifth edition, the index is conducted in partnership with the Centre for Fiscal Transparency and Public Integrity (CeFTPI). The initiative aligns with Nigeria's national reform strategy and its international commitments, such as the Open Government Partnership. It is also intended to support the work of anti-corruption agencies like the EFCC […]

NEFGAD faults BPP’s defence of US fiscal transparency report

The Network for Public Procurement Advocacy and Development (NEFGAD) has faulted the Bureau of Public Procurement (BPP) over what it described as a “weak and deceptive” response to the 2025 U.S. Fiscal Transparency Report, which indicted Nigeria for failing to disclose procurement contract details. The U.S. Department of State, in its latest review, acknowledged Nigeria’s progress in publishing budget documents and debt obligations but flagged persistent opacity around public procurement, warning that it undermines accountability and weakens governance. The report, which assessed 139 countries and the Palestinian Authority, found that 71 governments met minimum fiscal transparency requirements, while 69 did not. Nigeria was listed among 32 African countries still lagging, alongside Egypt, Algeria, Cameroon, Liberia, Sierra Leone, Chad, Angola, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Tanzania, and others. Specifically, the report faulted the Office of the Auditor-General of the Federation for failing to publish […]

FG rejects US report on lack of transparency in procurement

The Federal Government has dismissed a report by the United States Department of State alleging that Nigeria lacks transparency in its public procurement process. The 2025 Fiscal Transparency Report had listed Nigeria among 32 African countries said to have made little or no progress in the fiscal policy space. While acknowledging that Nigeria had improved in publishing budget documents and debt obligations, the report faulted the country for failing to disclose information on public procurement contracts. It also criticised the Office of the Auditor-General of the Federation for not publishing comprehensive audit reports, citing weak institutional independence as a major setback. The report recommended that Nigeria should strengthen the independence of its supreme audit institution, make procurement information easily accessible, and publish timely audit reports of executed budgets. Out of 139 countries and the Palestinian Authority assessed, the report found […]
