 Kenyan university scraps forest deal with Israel over Gaza A Kenyan university has cancelled a deal with the Israeli government to establish a so-called Zion Forest at its premises following public outcry over the war in Gaza, TRT Afrika reported. Daystar University, located in the capital Nairobi, earlier this week signed the deal with the Israeli embassy for the planting of over 5,000 trees on the campus. But it drew condemnation from Kenyans expressing solidarity with Palestinians in the Gaza, where more than 45,000 Palestinians have been killed by Israel in the war on the territory since October 2023. "We are not in any way supporting the ongoing humanitarian conflict in the Middle East. Daystar University esteems the sanctity of life and advocates for the peaceful co-existence of humanity,” Vice Chancellor Professor Laban Ayiro was quoted as saying in a Tuesday statement by the university.

 Four Nigerian Students Jailed in UK After Knife and Baseball Bat Fight


Four Nigerian students have been sentenced for their roles in a violent altercation in Leicester on November 4, 2021, involving knives and a baseball bat. The fight, which occurred in the early hours of the morning on New Park Street, left an 18-year-old man with multiple stab wounds, requiring hospital treatment.


The suspects were identified after an extensive investigation that included CCTV analysis, phone tracking, and public appeals.


In a six-week trial that concluded in October, the following sentences were handed down on November 14:


- Destiny Ojo, 21, from Plumstead, London: Seven years for violent disorder, attempted grievous bodily harm (GBH), and GBH with intent.

- Habib Lawal, 21, from Bexley, London: Five years for violent disorder, attempted GBH, and GBH with intent.

- Ridwanulahi Raheem, 21, from Lambeth, London: Three years for violent disorder and possession of a bladed article.

- Joshua Davies-Ero, 21, from Bexley, London: Two years for violent disorder.


A fifth defendant, Justin Asamoah, 22, from Merton, pleaded guilty to possession of a bladed article and will be sentenced on November 22.


Detective Constable Sean Downey highlighted the danger posed by such violent disorder, stating, "It is extremely fortunate that further injuries were not caused to the individuals involved or to the public who witnessed the incident. This could have been a very different investigation." He also reaffirmed the police's commitment to ensuring public safety, adding, "We will not tolerate violent disorder in our communities and will take action against those responsible."

  SSANU, NASU threaten strike over withheld salaries The Joint Action Committee of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions have threatened to disrupt industrial peace in universities should the government fail to release the withheld salaries of members. The salaries were seized by the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari during their strike in 2022. The unions, in a joint letter signed on Friday by the President of SSANU, Muhammed Ibrahim and General Secretary of NASU, Peters Adeyemi, questioned the rationale with which the government released four months withheld salaries to members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities but failed to release the withheld salaries of non-academic staff. The unions noted that they would no longer be able to assure the government of industrial peace in universities should the amounts owed by the government are not released. Earlier, the uni...
