AES which groups the military led governments of Burkina Faso Mali and Niger said an investigation showed the aircraft did not have authorisation to fly over Burkina Faso.​ The bloc condemned the incident as a serious violation of its airspace and the sovereignty of its member states and said its air defence systems had been placed on high alert.

Nigeria et Bénin déjouent une tentative de coup d’État

Le gouvernement béninois a annoncé lundi avoir mis en échec la tentative de renversement menée la veille par un groupe de militaires. Les mutins cherchaient à s’emparer du président Patrice Talon et de plusieurs centres stratégiques du pays. D’après le compte rendu du Conseil des ministres, les assaillants ont quitté la base de Togbin avant de cibler en premier lieu la résidence du général Bertin Bada, chef d’état-major particulier du président. Celui-ci a réussi à échapper aux mutins, mais son épouse a perdu la vie durant l’attaque. Deux hauts responsables militaires, le général Abou Issa et le colonel Faizou Gomina, ont également été capturés puis relâchés lundi matin à Tchaourou. Face à la situation, le Nigeria, préoccupé par une possible déstabilisation régionale, a déployé des avions de chasse afin de neutraliser les véhicules blindés utilisés par les putschistes. Selon les […]

Avion nigérian forcé d’atterrir : l’AES durcit le ton

Un avion militaire nigérian de type C-130 a été contraint d’atterrir à Bobo-Dioulasso le 8 décembre 2025, provoquant une réaction immédiate et sévère de la Confédération des États du Sahel (AES). Selon le communiqué signé par le général Assimi Goïta, l’appareil a effectué une descente d’urgence alors qu’il survolait le territoire burkinabè. Mais pour l’AES, cet incident dépasse le cadre technique. Les tensions régionales étaient déjà vives : le Nigeria mène depuis la veille une opération militaire au Bénin dans le cadre de la réponse de la CEDEAO à la tentative de coup d’État du 7 décembre. Abuja avait annoncé avoir engagé plusieurs unités dans cette mission, sans préciser les détails opérationnels. L’AES dénonce une violation grave de son espace aérien L’enquête menée par Ouagadougou conclut que le C-130 ne disposait d’aucune autorisation officielle pour traverser l’espace aérien burkinabè. La […]

CEDEAO : déploiement de troupes au Bénin après la mutinerie

La CEDEAO a réagi avec une rapidité inhabituelle à la tentative de prise de pouvoir signalée au Bénin le 7 décembre 2025. L’organisation ouest-africaine, depuis Abuja, a publié deux communiqués successifs condamnant une action qu’elle qualifie d’« anticonstitutionnelle » et annonçant une réponse immédiate à travers l’envoi de sa force régionale en attente. Dans son premier message officiel, la Commission de la CEDEAO dit avoir accueilli « avec consternation » les informations évoquant une tentative de coup d’État. Elle affirme que cette initiative porte atteinte à la volonté du peuple béninois et prévient qu’elle tiendra les responsables pour comptables de tout dégât humain ou matériel lié à leur action. L’institution exprime également son soutien total aux autorités béninoises et à l’armée, saluant les efforts visant à stabiliser la situation. Elle réaffirme sa disponibilité à accompagner Cotonou, y compris par la […]

Egypt vs Nigeria friendly shifted to December 16

The international friendly between Egypt and Nigeria has been rescheduled for 16 December, according to Egyptian Football Association Vice President Khaled El Darandaly.​ The game, originally set for 14 December, was moved after FIFA confirmed that clubs are only required to release players for the Africa Cup of Nations from 15 December, prompting both teams to adjust plans so key stars like Mohamed Salah and Omar Marmoush can feature.​ The match forms part of final preparations for AFCON 2025 in Morocco, where seven time champions Egypt have been drawn in Group B alongside South Africa, Angola and Zimbabwe, with a 28 man preliminary squad already named by coach Hossam Hassan.

Nigeria leads continental push to cut cancer deaths

The Federal Government has called for stronger Pan African collaboration to tackle the continent’s growing cancer burden, warning that cancer now kills more Africans each year than HIV/AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis combined.​ Minister of State for Health and Social Welfare, Dr Iziaq Salako, made the call in Luxor, Egypt, while addressing delegates at the Africa Oncology Collaboration and Innovation Forum, organised with Egyptian oncology institutions, African networks and development partners.​ Citing GLOBOCAN 2022 data, he said Africa recorded 1.18 million new cancer cases and 763,843 deaths, describing this as an unacceptable burden that demands coordinated continental action.​ Salako noted that Nigeria, Egypt and South Africa account for the highest cancer numbers in Africa, with Nigeria alone responsible for over 10.5 per cent of the continent’s total cancer burden, driven by lifestyle changes, ageing, late diagnosis, weak screening and gaps in […]

US slams visa ban on Nigerians linked to anti-Christian attacks

The United States has announced new visa bans targeting Nigerians accused of involvement in anti-Christian violence and other serious violations of religious freedom.​ US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said the restrictions would apply to individuals who knowingly direct, authorise, fund, support or carry out attacks and abuses against Christians and other religious minorities, as well as to their immediate family members.​ He explained that the decision was a response to mass killings and violence linked to radical Islamist groups, Fulani militias and other armed actors in Nigeria, and warned that the same policy could be used against abusers in other countries.​ The visa measures are being implemented under Section 212(a)(3)(C) of the US Immigration and Nationality Act, which allows Washington to deny entry to foreign nationals whose presence is considered against US foreign policy or security interests.​ Although the […]

WHO Raises Alarm Over Rising HIV Infections, Falling Funds

On World AIDS Day 2025, the World Health Organisation warned that the global fight against HIV is at a dangerous turning point as new infections rise while funding and political commitment weaken. The theme for this year, “Overcoming disruption, transforming the AIDS response,” highlights the need to rebuild and strengthen programmes that have been hit by crises and neglect.​ WHO said an estimated 40.8 million people are currently living with HIV worldwide, with the Eastern Mediterranean Region alone accounting for about 610,000 of them. In that region, annual new infections have almost doubled in less than a decade, jumping from 37,000 in 2016 to 72,000 in 2024, yet fewer than four in ten people know their HIV status and less than a third are on treatment.​ The organisation warned that dedicated HIV funding is declining, services are being disrupted and […]

Kwara Monarch Escapes as Vigilantes Battle Bandits

The abducted monarch of Bayagan community in Ifelodun Local Government Area of Kwara State, Alhaji Kamilu Salami, has escaped from armed bandits along with six other captives. Community sources said they fled on Sunday evening after local vigilantes launched a fierce offensive on the kidnappers’ camp deep inside the forest.​ The vigilante team reportedly tracked the gang to the Eku Idaji area, near Igbaja, and engaged them in heavy gunfire. Although the monarch and the other escapees had not yet returned to Bayagan at the time of the report, they contacted community members to confirm they were safe and out of the kidnappers’ control.​ The bandits had earlier demanded N150 million for the monarch’s release and called the community early on Sunday to reinforce their ransom demand. During that call, they allowed Alhaji Salami to speak, and he begged his […]
