 ‘Why Is Our Currency Weak?’ Tinubu’s Supporter, Igbokwe, Rants Again Amid Hardship A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Joe Igbokwe, has again lamented the outcome of the economic policies of the President Ahmed Bola Tinubu-led administration.

In early September, the APC chieftain had ranted about the new electricity tariff in the country urging the president to intervene. In the Facebook post, Igbokwe had pleaded with the president to “please look into the new electricity tariff in Nigeria. “It will kill businesses if the government does not act as quickly as possible. I have a small office in Surulere with about 7 units of AC. “We used to buy 300 plus units for N20,0000. Yesterday we bought N20,000 worth of units and it lasted for just one day.

GABON, EQUATORIAL GUINEA MEET AT ICJ OVER DISPUTED ISLANDS.(PHOTO).

 Gabon, Equatorial Guinea meet at ICJ over disputed islands Gabon and Equatorial Guinea faced off on Monday at the International Court of Justice, hoping to resolve a decades-old scrap over the sovereignty of three disputed islands in potentially oil-rich waters, AFP reported. The two West African nations have been squabbling over the 30-hectare (74-acre) island of Mbanie and two smaller low-lying islets, Cocotier and Conga, since the early 1970s. Unlike most contentious cases that come to the ICJ in The Hague, the two countries eventually agreed to send the thorny issue to the judges to find an amicable solution. The dispute dates all the way back to 1900, when then colonial powers France and Spain signed a treaty in Paris setting out the borders between the two countries. Legitimacy claims Gabon argues that a later treaty signed in 1974—the Bata Convention—gives it sovereignty over the islands. But Domingo Mba Esono, Vice Minister of Mines and Hydrocarbons of Equatorial Guinea, dispu

 Constitution review: Lawmakers disagree on state police, okay LG autonomy Members of the Senate Committee on the Constitution Review on Sunday concluded their two-day retreat on the amendments to the 1999 Constitution in Kano and unanimously agreed to include full autonomy for local governments in the nation’s legal document. The federal lawmakers, however, expressed divergent views on the issue of state police. Senators from the South-East and South- South geopolitical zones at the forum, advocated for the creation of an additional state. The legislators spoke at the sidelines of the Retreat which was organised by the Senate panel in collaboration with the Policy and Legal Advocacy Centre (PLAC). Their decision to save the third tier of government from total collapse following the abuse of their roles by the state governors, may not be unconnected to the recent Supreme Court verdict and the pledge by Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, that the National Assembly would tinker with the
