Police Arrest Activist Sowore at Abuja Court Premises

Activist and politician Omoyele Sowore was arrested by armed policemen on Thursday within the premises of the Federal High Court in Abuja. The arrest occurred shortly after he attended a court session in solidarity with the detained IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu. Police officers stated they were acting on the instructions of the Commissioner of Police and took him to the FCT Police Command. The Force Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, later explained that the arrest was linked to a protest Sowore led on Monday. Hundeyin stated that Sowore was arrested as the alleged leader of the protest to ensure "fairness," as others involved had already been charged. He assured that Sowore would be arraigned quickly and not detained beyond the legal limit. Sowore's lawyer condemned the arrest, calling it a mockery of the judicial system.

Nigerian Man Jailed in UK for Impersonating Female Nurse

A Nigerian man, Lucius Njoku, has been given a suspended prison sentence in the UK for fraudulently working in a hospital by impersonating a female nurse. Njoku, 33, used the identity of his friend, Joyce George, to work several shifts as a healthcare assistant at the Countess of Chester Hospital. He wore her NHS badge, which had her photograph, for two months before a patient confronted him about his identity. The court heard that the real nurse, Joyce George, had allowed Njoku to do her shifts under her name. She has since fled the UK, and a warrant has been issued for her arrest.

The judge condemned his actions for undermining crucial […]

Court Stops Nigerian Govt From Deregistering Youth Council NYCN

A Federal High Court in Abuja has ordered the Nigerian government to halt its plan to deregister the National Youth Council of Nigeria (NYCN). The order stops the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) and the Ministry of Youth Development from withdrawing the council's certificate of registration until a legal dispute is resolved. The case was filed by the NYCN's President, Amb. Sukubo Sara-Igbe Sukubo, after the Ministry announced the council's deregistration on October 7th, despite his recent re-election. Justice B. F. M. Nyako gave the order on October 15, 2025, directing all parties to "maintain the status quo." This means the NYCN will continue to operate as normal for now, and its leadership remains recognized. The court has instructed the defendants—the CAC and the Youth Ministry—to be formally notified of the lawsuit. The case has been adjourned to October 28, 2025, […]

Lebanese Judge Grants Gaddafi’s Son $11m Bail

A Lebanese judge has ordered the release of Hannibal Gaddafi, son of the late Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi, on an $11 million bail after nearly a decade in pre-trial detention. Gaddafi was arrested in 2015 and accused of withholding information about the 1978 disappearance of Lebanese Shiite cleric Mussa Sadr. The judge also imposed a travel ban. His lawyer has called the bail "totally unacceptable," arguing that his client, who is under international sanctions, cannot pay such a sum. The lawyer plans to challenge the decision and has previously raised concerns about Gaddafi's deteriorating health. The case has long strained relations between Lebanon and Libya, with Beirut blaming the elder Gaddafi's regime for the cleric's disappearance.
