Yemen fighting pushes nearly 3,000 to Djibouti in less than a week: UN    Nearly 3,000 people have fled Yemen for Djibouti in less than a week as escalating violence drives growing displacement within the country and across its borders, the UN refugee agency said Friday. “Refugees continue to arrive by boat through Obock, Khor Angar, Moulhoule and Godoria after difficult journeys in small vessels,” UNHCR representative in Djibouti Sandrine Desamours told reporters in Geneva, Anadolu Agency reported. More than half of those crossing the Bab el-Mandeb Strait are women and children, while some families have been displaced for a second time after previously fleeing Yemen during the 2015 crisis and later returning.

 Industrial Court Denies Reinstating Suspended Lagos Assembly Clerk


The National Industrial Court has criticized Olalekan Onafeko, the suspended Clerk of the Lagos State House of Assembly, for taking matters into his own hands, clarifying that it never ordered his reinstatement.


Onafeko had forcefully taken over the office of Acting Clerk Taiwo Ottun, claiming that the court had reinstated him. However, during the hearing on Tuesday, the court stated that its directive was merely for all parties to maintain peace and avoid actions that could disrupt the state's stability until the motion on notice is heard.


Expressing surprise at the misinterpretation of its ruling, the court adjourned the matter to March 18, 2025, for the hearing of all pending applications.


Senior Advocate of Nigeria, O.O. Oniyire, informed Justice M.N. Esowe that Onafeko had broken into the office, issued misleading press statements about his reinstatement, and allegedly used security operatives to intimidate the acting Clerk.


The court had earlier, on February 20, 2025, declined Onafeko’s request for an ex-parte order restraining the respondents, citing the extensive nature of his claims. Instead, it ruled that both parties should maintain peace and the status quo until the case is properly heard.
