  The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has once again called the press to a media conference, inviting journalists to its headquarters on Thursday, October 31, 2024. Scheduled to begin at 9:30 am, this event will be held on the first floor of the EFCC HQ and aims to update the media on the agency’s recent activities. However, critics are questioning whether these frequent press engagements indicate a troubling shift in focus, suggesting that the EFCC has transformed from an anti-corruption agency into a media organization more concerned with its image than with rooting out financial misconduct. Many observers have voiced disappointment, asserting that the EFCC's preoccupation with media appearances and public statements has diverted it from its core mission. Rather than undertaking thorough investigations and prosecuting cases with integrity, the agency has often opted for "media trials" that seem designed to shame and smear rather than serve justice. In th...

  The Nigeria Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NMDPRA) says the country’s daily petrol consumption currently ranges from 45 million litres to 50 million litres. NMDPRA’s Chief Executive Officer, Mr Farouk Ahmed, disclosed this while speaking on the sidelines of the ongoing 18th Africa Downstream Energy Week in Lagos. The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the 2024 OTL Africa Downstream Energy Week has the theme “Alliances for Growth.”. Ahmed said that higher petrol consumption during the fourth quarter, especially near the holiday season, was typical due to increased industrial and consumer activities. He expressed hope that recent price adjustments and market liberalisation would reduce cross-border smuggling, helping to retain more petrol within Nigeria. “We hope this price adjustment or liberalisation will discourage cross-border smuggling of the product, meaning that more petrol will stay within the country,” he said. He said that actual petrol co...

  President Bola Tinubu is currently receiving a briefing from the Implementation Committee on Crude Oil and Refined Products Sales in Local Currency at the Aso Rock Presidential Villa, Abuja. The  Minister of Finance, Mr Wale Edun, who chairs the committee, is leading the small delegation comprising the Chairman of Dangote Group, Aliko Dangote, and the Group CEO of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, Mr Mele Kyari. Our correspondent spotted the committee members arriving at the Council Chamber at minutes last 02:00 pm. In early October, the Federal Government began implementing a policy to sell crude oil to the Dangote Refinery in naira rather than U.S. dollars. This followed the Federal Executive Council’s approval which, the FG says, will stabilize fuel prices domestically and strengthen Nigeria’s currency by cutting down on the need for dollars in crude oil transactions. The move also allows the NNPC to supply crude oil in local currency, with Dangote’s refine...

  Chairman of Dangote Group, Aliko Dangote has blamed the current fuel scarcity in the country on retailers. To buttress his claims,  Dangote said over 500 million litres of fuel is stored in his tank farm ready for the market, but the retailers meant to buy and distribute the products are not coming forward to pick it up. Dangote made the allegations on Tuesday, shortly after key stakeholders in the oil and gas sector met with President Bola Tinubu in a bid to address the lingering fuel scarcity despite a hike in the commodity. According to Dangote,  his refinery has the capacity to produce more than 30 million litres of fuel daily but since he is not in the business of retailing, the products cannot get to Nigerians who need it because the retailers are not coming to pick it. He lamented that he is running at a loss by storing huge stocks of fuel in tanks, while Nigerians are groaning in the streets without stocks. Speaking to State House Correspondents after the meetin...

  American rapper, Curtis James Jackson III known professionally as 50 Cent, says he turned down a $3 million offer to perform at Donald Trump’s New York rally. Despite previously expressing admiration for the former president, the rapper revealed on The Breakfast Club that he “got a call” asking him to perform his track “Many Men (Wish Death)” at the Republican national convention for a similar fee. “I didn’t talk to them about that kinda stuff. I’m afraid about politics,” he said. The 2003 song “Many Men (Wish Death)”, inspired by the rapper’s near-fatal shooting in 2000, recently saw a resurgence among Trump supporters and hit the top 10 on iTunes. “He says ‘fight’,” Jackson said about Trump last month. “All right. And that’s exactly what I did after I got shot. I just went into fight mode. People identify with it that way.” Earlier this year, he also wrote on social media, “I think Trump’s gonna be president again, but I’m not going to say that.” Trump’s rally, held at Madison ...

  How President Tinubu Marginalised Other Ethnic Nationalities To Favour Yoruba In Key, Sensitive Positions Against Federal Character Act Since his inauguration in 2023,  President Bola Tinubu has continued to appoint Yoruba people to key positions, marginalising other regions in disregard of the Federal Character Act.
