  Embattled Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau says he will resign after new party leader chosen Justin Trudeau has said he intends to step down after nine years as Canadian prime minister in the face of a mounting set of crises, leaving office once a new ruling party leader is chosen. “I intend to resign as party leader, as prime minister, after the party selects its new leader,” the 53-year-old leader told reporters at a news conference in Ottawa on Monday. “I care deeply about this country and I will always be motivated by what is in the best interests of Canadians. And the fact is, despite best efforts to work through it, parliament has been paralyzed for months after what has been the longest session of a minority parliament in Canadian history,” he said, adding that the country’s parliament will be suspended until March 24 while a new leader is chosen. Trudeau, leader of the Liberal Party for 11 years and prime minister for nine, was facing a mounting set of crises, from Donald ...

TINUBU'S 15 PERCENT INFLATION TARGETS FOR NIGERIA IN 2025 UNREALISTIC- REWANE. (PHOTO).

 Tinubu’s 15 percent inflation targets for Nigeria in 2025 unrealistic ~ Rewane.


The Chief Executive of Financial Derivatives and popular economist, Bismark Rewane said President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s 15 percent inflation target in 2025 is unrealistic and a mere aspiration.


Rewane disclosed on Channels Television’s program on Thursday.


During Tinubu’s N49.7 trillion budget presentation before the National Assembly on December 18, 2024, he expressed optimism that Nigeria’s inflation rate would decline from 34.60 percent to 15 percent in 2025.


However, Rewane said the President’s target isn’t realistic.


According to him, Nigeria’s inflation can decline to 25 or 27 percent, but the 15 percent is unrealistic.


“Well, the target is an aspiration; the reality that we think is inflation could reduce from approximately 35 percent to somewhere like 27 percent or 25 percent, but a 15% rate on inflation is very bullish and aspirational, but we are free to have our aspirations.


“We deal in the world of reality, and in the world of reality, we see more of 27% to 25%. I would rather bet on that than bet on much more optimistic scenarios,” he said.


When Tinubu was sworn in as Nigeria’s president in May 2023, Nigeria’s inflation rate was 22.41 percent, according to official numbers by the National Bureau of Statistics, NBS.


The inflation rate rose astronomically to 34.6 percent in November 2024, more than 12 percent higher, a development that economic experts have attributed to Tinubu’s twin policies of petrol subsidy removal and unification of the foreign exchange rates.

  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...
