 SUPREME COURT UPHOLDS PRESIDENT'S POWER TO DECLARE EMERGENCY RULE The  supreme court has affirmed the president's constitutional authority to declare a state of emergency in a state threatened by breakdown of law and order, including the power to temporarily suspend elected officials as an extraordinary measure to restore stability. The seven-man panel of justices of the apex court gave the order in a 6 to 1 split decision on a suit filed by Adamawa state and 10 others challenging president Bola Tinubu's march 18, 2025 declaration of emergency rule in Rivers state.  The declaration had led to the six-month suspension of the state's governor, deputy governor, and members of the house of assembly amid prolonged political crisis and security concerns.

CUSTOMS ISSUED A PRESS STATEMENT ON A MISCHIEVOUS PUBLICATION ABOUT SEIZED VEHICLES BELONGING TO A SENATOR IN KANO.

           On the 7th February,2017,eleven {11} vehicles,10 Hilux and one {1} Land cruiser jeep were retrieved from the house at Magaji Rumfa GRA,Kano and taken for detention at the HQ of Customs Area Command Kano.That the officers discovered three were no occupants in the house,hence the gate was forced opened to retrieve the smuggled vehicles.That investigation into the smuggling of the vehicles is still on to establish the true owner.From the above,it is clear that whoever introduced the ''Senator'' angle to the story is out for pure mischief and does not represent the position of the service on this issue.Accordingly,the false and misleading report should be discountenance please.
