 ALGON Rejects Suspension of Edo Council Chairmen, Seeks Tinubu’s Intervention The Association of Local Governments of Nigeria (ALGON) has strongly condemned the Edo State House of Assembly’s recent suspension of 18 local government chairmen across the state. In a statement released in Taraba State on Thursday, ALGON’s National Executive Council (NEC) and Board of Trustees (BOT) criticized the suspension, calling it a serious violation of democracy and constitutional order. The suspensions came after Governor Monday Okpebholo accused the chairmen of failing to comply with his directives by not submitting financial records to the state government. The statement, signed by ALGON’s National Publicity Secretary, Hamisu M. Anani, expressed deep concern, describing the action as a "setback for democracy and an abuse of power."

Nasarawa PoS Operators Launch Task Force to Combat Fraud


The Nasarawa State chapter of the Association of Mobile Money and Bank Agents in Nigeria (AMMBAN) has launched a Joint Task Force to address fraud committed by criminal Point of Sale (PoS) agents in the state. The initiative, unveiled at the AMMBAN State Secretariat in Karu Local Government Area, aims to ensure secure and efficient financial services by PoS operators.


Noah Enesata, the state Chairman, emphasized that the task force would collaborate with security agencies and stakeholders to quickly achieve its goals of eliminating financial crimes across Nasarawa's 13 Local Government Areas.


The newly formed task force includes Simon Emeka-Kenneth as Chairman, Salisu Ibrahim as Secretary, and other key members. Enesata highlighted the rising concerns over fraud, including cases where PoS machines were used for illegal activities like theft, kidnapping, and ransom collection.


He also noted that PoS operators should have physical locations for accountability, assuring that AMMBAN will continue to follow Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) guidelines to ensure trustworthy services. The new task force chairman, Simon Emeka-Kenneth, pledged to enforce these guidelines and tackle fraud, urging Governor Abdullahi Sule to work with the CBN to resolve cash shortages in the state.


The event was attended by several dignitaries, including Jile Modupe-Janet, AMMBAN Chairman of the Abuja branch, and Danjuma Umar, the state’s AMMBAN Treasurer.

  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...
