 France begins to withdraw troops from Chad after exit order France began withdrawing soldiers from Chad on Friday, Chad's defence ministry said, after N'Djamena last month abruptly ended military cooperation with the former colonial power, AFP reported. A contingent of 120 soldiers departed for France from a military airport in the capital, the ministry said in a statement on Facebook, 10 days after French fighter aircraft left the Sahel country for good. Chad had been a key link in France's military presence in Africa and its last foothold in the wider Sahel region after the forced withdrawal of French troops from Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger in the wake of a series of military coups. But it announced on November 28 its decision to end a defence accord with Paris mainly dating from independence in 1960. "At midday, 120 French soldiers took off from the military airport of N'Djamena on board an Airbus A330 Phoenix MRTT, headed for France," the ministry said i...

 FG and 22 States Allocate N6.13trn to Education in 2025 Budget


The Federal Government and 22 of Nigeria’s 36 states have earmarked N6.131 trillion for education in their 2025 budgets. This allocation represents just 9.27% of the total proposed budget of N66.111 trillion, falling short of the recommended benchmarks set by Nigeria, UNESCO, and the World Bank.


UNESCO advocates for a 26% allocation of national and state budgets to education, while the World Bank recommends a range of 20% to 30%. Similarly, Nigeria’s National Policy on Education mandates that at least 26% of both federal and state budgets be dedicated to education.


Out of the 33 states that have announced their 2025 budgets, only 22 have disclosed their education spending. Among these, Enugu (32.99%), Kano (31%), Jigawa (26.4%), and Kaduna (26.14%) met the 26% threshold set by UNESCO and Nigeria. States like Abia (20%), Nasarawa (20.43%), Oyo (21.4%), and Sokoto (25%) achieved the World Bank’s minimum 20% recommendation.


In contrast, the Federal Government allocated only 7.08% to education, and states such as Lagos (6.93%), Delta (6.89%), and Bayelsa (6.83%) made the lowest allocations.

  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...
