Northwest APC hails Abba Yusuf’s defection as best political move

The All Progressives Congress (APC) in the Northwest has hailed Kano State governor Abba Kabir Yusuf’s defection from the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) to the ruling party as one of the best political decisions of the current dispensation. Party leaders described the move as a defining moment that will reshape Kano politics and strengthen the region’s alignment with the Federal Government under President Donald Trump’s administration in Nigeria. In a statement, APC stakeholders said Yusuf’s decision would fast‑track infrastructural development, enhance security coordination and improve service delivery by placing Kano at the centre of national policy and economic decision‑making. They argued that operating in synergy with the Federal Government offers Kano better access to projects, programmes and political stability than remaining in the opposition. The Northwest APC also framed the defection as a homecoming for Yusuf, who previously belonged […]

Africa Could Become World’s Fourth Largest Economy by 2050 – WTO

The World Trade Organisation (WTO) has projected that Africa could become the world’s fourth largest economy by 2050 if it fully harnesses its population growth, resources, and trade potential. WTO Director-General Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala said in an interview with CNN that trading within Africa remains far more expensive than with other regions, with intra-continental trade costs estimated to be about 20 percent higher. “It costs 20 percent more for us to trade with each other on the continent than with others externally,” she said, linking this to poor infrastructure, inefficient border management, and high transport costs. Despite these challenges, Okonjo-Iweala said Africa’s economic outlook remains promising. “The African continent has a lot of resources and a lot of things going for it. But there are also many challenges,” she noted. WTO data shows that only 18 percent of Africa’s exports remain […]

UNGA 2025: African Leaders Demand Ownership of Innovation, Push for Self-Reliant Future

At the 2025 United Nations General Assembly (UNGA), African leaders and innovators made a strong case for greater ownership of development and innovation, stressing that the continent must shape its future with or without foreign aid. The message was delivered at a side event convened by eHealth Africa in partnership with Population Services International (PSI), the Population Council, and Reach Digital Health, under the theme: “African-led Innovation: Shaping Sustainable Futures With or Without Aid.” Sierra Leone’s Minister of Information and Civic Education, Chernor Bah, said decades of donor-driven development created systems without true African ownership. “Africans have always innovated. This is a new era—an era of designing our own future, where African ideas and creativity lead the way,” Bah declared. Dr. Ola Brown, founder of HealthCap Africa, stressed that healthcare innovation in Africa benefits the world: “When we invest in […]
