 So Linus Williams (Blord) has been released from Kuje prison after fulfilling his bail conditions, finally, freedom after a few weeks in custody. However, here’s the current position of his case:  He is still expected to show up and stand his trial.  If he fails to appear in court even for one day, his bail can be revoked and a bench warrant may be issued against him, meaning a return to Kuje. If the prosecution cannot prove the charges against him, he will be discharged and acquitted. If the prosecution proves the charges, he may be sentenced and sent back to Kuje. I think he should seek a peaceful resolution to the case. Congrats to him on his freedom for now.

 FG Considers Ban on 60,000-Litre Tanker Trucks Amid Rising Fatalities


The Federal Government is considering banning 60,000-litre capacity tanker trucks, capping them at 45,000 litres, due to rising tanker-related accidents, which have caused 486 deaths in under three years.


NMDPRA Chief Executive, Engr. Farouk Ahmed, revealed that in:

2025, five accidents led to 121 deaths, 79 injuries.

2024, 11 incidents caused 341 deaths, 124 injuries.

2023, two accidents resulted in 24 deaths, 5 injuries.


To enhance safety, the government has implemented driver training, anti-spill safety valves, and safe-to-load protocols.


However, NARTO opposes the ban, arguing it could jeopardize N300bn investments, as 2,000 such trucks are currently in operation, each costing N150m. NUPENG also stressed the need for driver health checks and better road conditions.


Stakeholder discussions on the proposal are ongoing.
