Resident doctors to begin indefinite nationwide strike Tuesday

The Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors has declared an indefinite nationwide strike to begin at 12 00 a m on Tuesday April 7 2026. The decision followed an extraordinary NEC meeting where the body reviewed government’s handling of its long standing demands. NARD said the action became inevitable after repeated failures by the Federal Government to honour agreements and implement terms reached in earlier negotiations. The doctors accused authorities of making promises on paper without translating them into concrete improvements on the ground. Key issues listed include unpaid salary and promotion arrears for many members across teaching and specialist hospitals. The association is also demanding improved working conditions, implementation of agreed allowances and adequate staffing to reduce excessive workload. Resident doctors say the current situation is pushing many colleagues to burnout or forcing them to leave the country, worsening brain […]

SSANIP asks FG renegotiation panel to hasten talks

The Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Polytechnics has appealed to the Federal Government’s panel on the renegotiation of its agreement with unions in the polytechnic sector to speed up its work. The union said delays in concluding the process are frustrating workers and threatening the fragile peace in the system. SSANIP noted that the renegotiation of its agreement with the government has dragged on for years without clear timelines for completion. It warned that leaving key welfare issues unresolved for too long sends a wrong signal about how polytechnic workers are valued. The association urged members of the renegotiation panel to treat the process as urgent and to increase the frequency of meetings until a new agreement is reached and signed. It stressed that quick, sincere engagement will help prevent a repeat of past strikes that disrupted academic activities nationwide. […]

Toyin Alausa Decries Online Harassment, Urges Respect For The Dead

Nollywood actress Toyin Alausa has condemned the growing wave of online harassment and the widespread sharing of disturbing content on social media. She warned that the digital space is becoming increasingly toxic, with many users treating other people’s pain and private moments as entertainment. Alausa was particularly critical of the trend of circulating photos and videos of deceased persons online. She described the habit of filming and uploading images of lifeless bodies as disturbing, unnecessary, and deeply hurtful to grieving families. According to her, once a death has occurred, the immediate and proper response should be to cover the body, especially the face, as a mark of respect and dignity. She stressed that exposing the dead to public view does not serve any humane purpose and can traumatise relatives and viewers. While she acknowledged that there may be rare cases […]

Iran Players Honour School Strike Victims Before Nigeria Match

Iran’s national football team has paid tribute to victims of a deadly strike on a school by staging a silent protest before their friendly match against Nigeria. The game, played in Belek, Turkey, was Iran’s first outing since the wider Middle East conflict began. As the national anthem played, the Iranian players stood in a line wearing black armbands and holding children’s schoolbags in their hands. In front of them on the pitch, more schoolbags were laid out to symbolise the pupils who lost their lives. The gesture was in memory of the children and teachers killed when a school in the southern Iranian city of Minab was hit by a strike on February 28. Officials in Iran say at least 170 people, most of them schoolgirls, died in the attack. Iran has blamed the United States and Israel for […]

Night Fire Razes Calabar Timber Market, Traders Count Losses

A late night fire has destroyed a major timber market in Calabar, Cross River State, leaving traders with heavy losses. The incident occurred at the Akim timber market on Friday night, when flames suddenly spread through rows of shops and wood stores. Witnesses said the fire started around midnight and quickly grew, helped by the dry weather and the large quantity of wood in the market. Many traders and residents rushed to the scene in an effort to salvage goods, but the intensity of the fire made it difficult to rescue most items. By the time the fire was brought under control, more than 100 shops and sheds had been destroyed. Large quantities of processed wood, furniture materials, machines, and other items were completely burnt.

Jehovah’s Witnesses relax stance on use of own blood

Jehovah’s Witnesses have announced a change to their medical guidance on blood, allowing members to decide whether to use their own blood during medical procedures while keeping the long standing ban on receiving blood from others.​ The adjustment is presented as an effort to balance their religious beliefs with advances in modern medicine. It is rooted in the group’s interpretation of the Bible, which they say requires Christians to abstain from blood, but does not directly address how a person’s own blood may be used in treatment.​ Governing Body member Gerrit Lösch explained that individual choice is central to the new direction. He stated that each Christian must personally decide how their own blood will be handled during surgery, medical tests or therapy, including whether it may be stored and later returned to them.​ Lösch noted that some members may […]
