China probes top generals Zhang Youxia and Liu Zhenli

China’s defence ministry says the Communist Party has opened investigations into senior military figures Zhang Youxia and Liu Zhenli for suspected serious violations of discipline and law. Zhang is a Politburo member and vice chairman of the powerful Central Military Commission (CMC), while Liu serves as chief of staff of the CMC Joint Staff Department.​ Zhang, 75, is widely regarded as President Xi Jinping’s closest ally in the People’s Liberation Army and one of the few top officers with combat experience. He is a key architect of China’s military modernisation and one of two CMC vice chairmen overseeing the country’s armed forces.​ The move is the latest step in Xi’s sweeping anti corruption drive, which has heavily targeted the military since 2012. In October 2025, eight top generals, including former CMC vice chairman He Weidong, were expelled from the party […]

Ben Akinbami uses music to tackle crime and promote accountability

Nigerian singer Akinbami Ebenezer, popularly known as Ben Akinbami, is using his music to discourage crime and support the work of law enforcement agencies. In an industry often criticised for glorifying fraud, drug abuse and sex, he is choosing themes that warn against vices instead of celebrating them.​ Speaking after a performance at the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission Officers Night Out, Akinbami said music is a powerful tool that can shape behaviour. He noted that if songs can influence people into drugs and other crimes, they can also inspire younger generations to live responsibly.​ His latest single, Hand Go Touch You, targets youths and corrupt politicians who are desperate for quick wealth. The track warns about the long term consequences of criminal lifestyles and urges respect for the rule of law.​ Akinbami, who started singing at age eight, has […]

Presidency Says Tinubu Won’t Use EFCC To Harass Opposition Over Defections

The Presidency has rejected suggestions that President Bola Tinubu is weaponising the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission against opposition figures in order to pressure them into joining the ruling All Progressives Congress. It described such claims as baseless and the product of a “failed opposition” running out of issues to campaign on.​ In a statement issued in Abuja by Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, the Presidency said Tinubu would never deploy the EFCC to harass, intimidate or blackmail political rivals. Onanuga stressed that recent high profile defections to the APC were voluntary and motivated by confidence in the president’s reform agenda.​ He noted that Nigeria’s Constitution guarantees freedom of association and the right to change political affiliation at any time. According to him, no one has been compelled to join the APC and it is wrong to […]

AU anti graft board seeks youth partnership to fight corruption

The African Union Advisory Board Against Corruption has pledged to deepen collaboration with young people across the continent in order to tackle corruption and build a future based on integrity and justice. Chairperson Kwami Edem Senanu made the commitment in Arusha, Tanzania, in a statement marking International Anti Corruption Day 2025.​ Senanu described Africa’s youth as future custodians of the continent who are not only victims of corruption and illicit financial flows but also powerful agents of change. He warned that corruption undermines development, erodes public trust and blocks human progress by stealing resources and opportunities.​ Citing estimates by Mo Ibrahim, he noted that Africa loses around 125 billion dollars every year to corruption. He said the day should therefore be seen not only as a reminder of losses but also as a fresh opportunity to renew collective resolve to […]
