Several Democrats Side With Republicans to Pass Deal Ending Longest US Shutdown

The US Senate has passed a deal aimed at ending the longest government shutdown in American history, after a group of Democratic lawmakers reached an agreement with Republicans. The compromise legislation, which still needs House approval, will temporarily fund government programs through January, with the shutdown reaching 40 days. Some high-profile Democrats are upset that colleagues sided with Trump’s Republicans, deepening divisions in the party. The shutdown impacted around 1.4 million federal workers and disrupted services, including food aid and airport operations—over 10,000 flights were delayed on Sunday due to staffing shortages. Seven Democratic senators and one independent crossed the aisle, including Catherine Cortez Masto (Nevada), Dick Durbin (Illinois), John Fetterman (Pennsylvania), Maggie Hassan (New Hampshire), Tim Kaine (Virginia), Angus King (Maine, independent), Jacky Rosen (Nevada), and Jeanne Shaheen (New Hampshire). Only one Republican, Rand Paul (Kentucky), voted against, citing […]

Nasarawa Youths Protest After Deadly Night Attack Kills Two

Angry youths in Sarkin Noma, Keana Local Government Area of Nasarawa State, staged a major protest after a night attack left two men dead and one elderly resident abducted. The attack happened between 11:30 p.m. and midnight, when suspected armed herders invaded the community, shooting sporadically. Eyewitnesses reported that around fifty armed men carried out the raid. Youths in the community tried to defend themselves, but two were killed during the confrontation. The attackers also kidnapped an elderly resident, whose condition remains unknown. Community leaders say this is the twelfth attack in recent times, leaving residents frightened and angry. Many are at risk, especially those returning home at night. The attackers are believed to target people for ransom. To protest the ongoing violence, the youths took the bodies of the victims to the Lafia–Makurdi highway, blocking traffic and demanding urgent […]

FG Moves to Boost Milk Production to Meet 1.6bn Litres Demand

The Federal Government has pledged to raise Nigeria’s milk production from the current 700 million litres a year to meet the national demand of 1.6 billion litres. Minister of Livestock Development, Idi Maiha, made the commitment at a workshop on the “Final Review and Validation of Framework for the Implementation of the National Dairy Policy” held on Wednesday in Abuja. Maiha said Nigeria has enough livestock resources to meet domestic milk needs if properly managed. He described the country’s reliance on imported dairy products as unsustainable and inconsistent with President Bola Tinubu’s goal of economic diversification and self-reliance. He listed several measures being taken to support local farmers and investors, including soft loans, tariff protection, and the creation of dairy development hubs in key production areas. “There is a need for urgent and coordinated efforts to transform Nigeria’s dairy industry […]

Nigeria Rejects Claims of Religious Persecution

The Nigerian government has dismissed claims of religious persecution, saying the country’s constitution guarantees freedom of religion for all citizens. Foreign Minister Yusuf Tuggar made this clear during a press conference in Berlin on Tuesday, following remarks by former US President Donald Trump, who had threatened military intervention over the alleged killing of Christians in Nigeria. “There can’t be a religious persecution that can be supported in any way, shape or form by the government of Nigeria at any level,” Tuggar said. Trump had written on social media that he asked the Pentagon to plan a possible military response, claiming “Christians are being killed in large numbers.” Tuggar stressed that Nigeria remains committed to religious freedom and the rule of law. He noted that the country’s many conflicts affect both Christians and Muslims, not one group alone. Nigeria, Africa’s most […]

Ghana Imposes Moratorium on Independent Biometric Systems to Strengthen Data Security

The Office of the President has placed an immediate freeze on the procurement and use of independent biometric Automated Fingerprint Identification Systems (AFIS) across all government institutions. The directive, issued by the Secretary to the President, Callistus Mahama, marks a significant shift in how Ghana manages biometric and identification data. This decision isn’t just administrative — it’s a push toward efficiency, data protection, and digital standardization in government operations. Why the Ban Matters For years, different Ministries, Departments, Agencies (MDAs), and Metropolitan, Municipal, and District Assemblies (MMDAs) have operated separate biometric systems, often running parallel databases for verification and identity management. This fragmented approach has been expensive, inconsistent, and a serious risk to data integrity. The new moratorium prohibits all MDAs and state institutions from: Developing or deploying independent biometric platforms. Running parallel biometric databases. Verifying identities using only visual […]

United States: Wave of Firings Targets Black Leaders in Key Federal Institutions

A series of high-profile dismissals in early 2025 has sparked widespread concern over declining diversity and representation in top U.S. government roles. The new administration, shortly after its inauguration in January, initiated sweeping changes that saw several prominent Black leaders removed from critical federal agencies and institutions. Among the earliest was Gwen Wilcox, the first Black woman to chair the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), who was dismissed and replaced by Marvin E. Kaplan, a Republican appointee. The decision marked a sharp political and ideological shift in labor policy direction. In February, General C.Q. Brown Jr., the second Black Joint Chiefs of Staff in U.S. history, was also removed from office. He was replaced by retired Air Force Lieutenant General Dan Kaine, who lacked prior four-star general experience. To qualify for the role, Kaine received a presidential waiver and an […]

EU Lawmaker Alleges Christian Genocide in Nigeria, Govt Denies

A European Parliament member, Dominik Tarczyński, has raised a global alarm, alleging a genocide of Christians is taking place in Nigeria. The Polish lawmaker posted a graphic of a blood-stained Nigerian flag on social media, along with a video of a Nigerian pastor pleading for international intervention. In the video, the pastor claims that Christians are being systematically killed and calls on former US President Donald Trump for help. This accusation has been strongly denied by the Nigerian government. The Minister of Information, Mohammed Idris, has previously labeled such claims as "false, baseless, and divisive." The government maintains that the country's security challenges, which include banditry and terrorism, are complex and not a targeted campaign against any single religious group. It warns that such allegations oversimplify the situation and risk fueling dangerous divisions within the country.

Cameroon Opposition Leader Issa Tchiroma Declares Victory Before Official Results

In a nearly five-minute video statement posted on social media early Tuesday, Tchiroma proclaimed himself the winner and urged President Paul Biya, the 92-year-old incumbent, to concede defeat. “The people have chosen, and this choice must be respected,” he said in the video, calling on Cameroonians to defend what he described as a “historic transition.” However, the government quickly cautioned that only the Constitutional Council has the legal authority to declare results. The body has up to two weeks to release the official outcome. Tchiroma, once a government spokesman and close ally of Biya for two decades, resigned in June to mount a challenge. His campaign drew massive crowds and endorsements from a coalition of opposition groups — making him the strongest challenger Biya has faced in years. Despite this, analysts widely expected Biya — Africa’s longest-serving leader with 43 […]

Madagascar President Dissolves Parliament Amid Political Crisis

Madagascar’s embattled President Andry Rajoelina has issued a decree dissolving the National Assembly, in a last-ditch attempt to stave off a political collapse as pressure mounts for his resignation. The president, who has reportedly fled the country, announced the decree on social media on Tuesday — just hours before lawmakers were expected to hold an impeachment vote against him. The political climate remains tense, with sections of the military and police now backing mass protests demanding that Rajoelina step down. According to a statement released by the presidency on Facebook, the decree “shall enter into force immediately upon its publication by radio and/or television broadcast.” Rajoelina defended his action in a separate online post, calling it a move to “restore order within our nation and strengthen democracy.” However, opposition leader Siteny Randrianasoloniaiko, who was leading the impeachment effort, dismissed the […]
