 Texas woman charged with medical child abuse for falsifying toddler’s health and pushing unnecessary feeding tube surgeries A Texas woman has been charged with medical child abuse after allegedly falsifying her toddler’s medical history to pressure doctors into performing unnecessary procedures, including feeding tube surgeries, in what authorities are calling a “sickening” case. Kaitlyn Rose Laura, 31, faces charges of injury to a child and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. Officials said she deliberately misled medical staff about her 3-year-old son’s health to obtain a gastrostomy tube and later a gastrojejunostomy tube, despite no documented medical need. Investigators allege that hospital staff observed the boy eating normally while Laura claimed he refused all food. Covert surveillance confirmed the child was able to eat meals without difficulty, prompting authorities to stop tube feedings. The case spanned multiple hospitals and included repeated false reports, GoFun...

World Bank hints at ‘partial return’ of subsidy in Nigeria, says petrol should cost N750/litre

The World Bank says Nigeria’s petrol should be priced at N750 per litre at the pumps.

Alex Sienaert, the bank’s lead economist for Nigeria, made this known during his presentation of the Nigeria development update report, the December 2023 edition.

The report, titled, ‘Turning The Corner (From Reforms and Renewed Hope to Results)” was presented on Wednesday in Abuja.

Based on today’s official exchange rate, according to Sienaert, the product should sell for around N750 per litre and not the N650 currently being paid by Nigerians.

He said the current petrol prices are not fully cost-reflective, which signals “the partial return of the subsidy”.

“It does seem like petrol prices are not fully adjusting to market conditions so that hints at the partial return of the subsidy, if we estimate what is the cost reflective of retail PMS price of the would-be and assuming that importation is done at the official FX rate,” he said.

“Of course, the liberalisation is happening with the parallel rates, which is the main supplier, the price would be even higher. These are just estimates to give you a sense of what cost-reflective pricing most likely looks like.

“We think the price of petrol should be around N750 per litre more than the N650 per litre currently paid by Nigerians.”

Sienaert said the bank is recommending that Nigeria’s government should take additional steps to safeguard the benefits of its bold reforms.

Since the federal government announced the removal of the petrol subsidy, concerns had been raised over the lack of correlation between pump prices in the country and the international crude oil price, as well as the exchange rates.

Festus Osifo, the national president of the Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria (PENGASSAN) said the federal government is still paying subsidies on petrol.

However, the federal government denied reintroducing the subsidy payments.
