NEFGAD faults BPP’s defence of US fiscal transparency report

The Network for Public Procurement Advocacy and Development (NEFGAD) has faulted the Bureau of Public Procurement (BPP) over what it described as a “weak and deceptive” response to the 2025 U.S. Fiscal Transparency Report, which indicted Nigeria for failing to disclose procurement contract details. The U.S. Department of State, in its latest review, acknowledged Nigeria’s progress in publishing budget documents and debt obligations but flagged persistent opacity around public procurement, warning that it undermines accountability and weakens governance. The report, which assessed 139 countries and the Palestinian Authority, found that 71 governments met minimum fiscal transparency requirements, while 69 did not. Nigeria was listed among 32 African countries still lagging, alongside Egypt, Algeria, Cameroon, Liberia, Sierra Leone, Chad, Angola, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Tanzania, and others. Specifically, the report faulted the Office of the Auditor-General of the Federation for failing to publish […]

Man charged with shining laser pointer at Trump’s Marine One helicopter

US authorities have charged a man for pointing a laser pointer at Marine One, the presidential helicopter, while it departed the White House with former President Donald Trump aboard. According to a court filing on Monday, Jacob Samuel Winkler, 33, was spotted by a Secret Service officer shining a red laser beam from the sidewalk outside the White House grounds as Marine One lifted off on Saturday. Winkler was immediately detained and charged with aiming a laser pointer at an aircraft — a federal felony punishable by up to five years in prison. The affidavit noted that his actions posed a significant risk of flash blindness and pilot disorientation, particularly during low-altitude flight in the busy Washington, D.C. airspace near other helicopters and landmarks such as the Washington Monument. “This placed Marine One at risk of an airborne collision,” the […]

Trump Urges DOJ to Target Rivals, Fires Prosecutor

Former U.S. President Donald Trump has once again pressured the Justice Department to take action against his political opponents, drawing criticism for undermining the agency’s independence. In a Saturday social media post, Trump called out Attorney General Pam Bondi, demanding investigations into California Senator Adam Schiff and New York Attorney General Letitia James, both Democrats. He accused them of mortgage fraud, echoing claims from one of his allies, Bill Pulte, Director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency. Trump criticized the lack of progress, saying, “We can’t delay any longer, it’s killing our reputation and credibility.” A day earlier, Trump dismissed Erik Siebert, U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, who had overseen the probe into James. Siebert reportedly found insufficient evidence to move forward. Trump defended the firing, insisting there was a strong case against James. Late Saturday, Trump […]

Trump Administration Slaps Harvard With New Federal Funding Limits

The Trump administration has imposed fresh restrictions on Harvard University’s access to federal funds, intensifying its clash with one of America’s most prestigious institutions. In a statement Friday, the Department of Education announced that Harvard has been placed under “heightened cash monitoring (HCM) status” due to what it called “growing concerns regarding the university’s financial position.” The shift means Harvard must first disburse student financial aid from its own accounts before later seeking reimbursement from Washington. “Students will continue to have access to federal funding, but Harvard will be required to cover the initial disbursements as a guardrail to ensure Harvard is spending taxpayer funds responsibly,” the department said. Federal officials also ordered Harvard to post an irrevocable $36 million letter of credit to cover potential liabilities. Background to the crackdown The move is the latest escalation in the Trump […]

Estonia blasts Russia over brazen airspace violation

Estonia’s foreign ministry has accused Russia of violating its airspace, calling the incursion by Russian fighter jets “brazen” and “extremely dangerous.” According to officials in Tallinn, three Russian MiG-31 warplanes entered Estonian airspace without permission on Friday, flying over the Gulf of Finland for a total of 12 minutes. The aircraft reportedly had their transponders switched off, a move seen as a direct provocation against a NATO member state. In response, Estonia summoned Russia’s chargé d’affaires to lodge a formal protest. EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas described the incident as “an extremely dangerous provocation,” while Estonian Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna called it “unprecedentedly brazen.” “Russia’s increasingly extensive testing of boundaries and growing aggressiveness must be met with a swift increase in political and economic pressure,” Tsahkna warned in a statement. Estonian officials noted that Russia has violated the country’s […]

TikTok US-China deal nears as Trump, Xi weigh terms

A long-awaited deal over TikTok may be within reach, with US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping set to discuss terms on Friday. Officials from both countries struck a “framework” agreement this week that could see TikTok’s US operations sold to a group of American firms, including Oracle and investment giants Andreessen Horowitz and Silver Lake. Reports suggest US users could soon get a new American-specific version of the app. Experts say the deal would mark a “rare breakthrough” in strained US-China trade negotiations, potentially easing years of tensions around the app’s future. For TikTok’s 170 million American users, however, the biggest question remains: what happens to the algorithm? Often described as TikTok’s “secret sauce,” the recommendation engine is the core of its global appeal. While Instagram’s Reels and YouTube’s Shorts have tried to copy it, they fall […]

Late-night hosts back Jimmy Kimmel in free speech row

America’s late-night TV hosts have rallied behind Jimmy Kimmel after ABC suspended him over comments about the killing of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Stephen Colbert opened his show declaring “we are all Jimmy Kimmel,” calling the suspension a “blatant assault on freedom of speech.” Seth Meyers praised Kimmel as “a privilege and honour to call my friend,” while Jon Stewart and Jimmy Fallon performed satirical sketches mocking the pressure to praise Donald Trump. The move followed remarks from President Trump, who suggested major networks could have their licenses “taken away” for negative coverage. Kimmel had criticized MAGA supporters in his Monday monologue, accusing them of exploiting Kirk’s death for political gain. He also ridiculed Trump’s response, comparing it to “how a four-year-old mourns a goldfish.” Federal Communications Commission (FCC) chairman Brendan Carr condemned Kimmel’s comments as “sick,” accusing him of […]
