 UN says 53 Congolese refugees have died in Burundi More than 50 refugees fleeing fighting in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo have died in neighbouring Burundi, the United Nations Refugee Agency told Reuters late on Friday. Of a total 53 deaths recorded, 25 people died due to a cholera outbreak, the agency said, while six others died from anemia and other complications related to malnutrition, it said. The U.N. said it was working with the health ministry and other partners to investigate the cause of the other deaths. More than 100,000 Congolese have sought refuge in Burundi since fighting near the border intensified in early December and rebels seized the town of Uvira, the UNHCR said. Jean Jacques Purusi, governor of South Kivu province where Uvira is located, described the situation in Burundi as "misery" and "a crisis completely forgotten by the international community and media."

 LASG RELEASES Y2025 LAND USE CHARGE BILLS


… Offers 15% Discount for Early Payment


The Lagos State Government has released the 2025 Land Use Charge (LUC) Bill, reinforcing its commitment to the continuous provision of world-class infrastructure and services for all residents. 


According to the Commissioner for Finance, Mr. Abayomi Oluyemi, property owners across the state are encouraged to take advantage of the 15% discount on their Land Use Charge by making early payments before the deadline. He explained that the Land Use Charge is a crucial revenue source that enables the government to maintain and improve essential public infrastructure, including roads, healthcare facilities, schools, and security enhancements. 


In his words, “Recent projects funded through taxpayers' contributions include: The Lagos Rail Mass Transit (LRMT) Blue and Red Lines – transforming urban mobility and reducing travel time; construction and rehabilitation of key roads and bridges – easing traffic congestion and improving connectivity; expansion of healthcare facilities – providing better access to quality healthcare for residents; enhanced security measures – ensuring a safer environment for businesses and communities amongst others”.


Abayomi emphasised that Governor Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu's vision of building a safe, livable, and globally competitive megacity remains steadfast. The present administration intends to continue to implement policies that drive sustainable development, attract investments, and elevate Lagos to the ranks of the world's most advanced cities.


“This is a call to action for all property owners to support this mission by fulfilling their civic duty and paying their Land Use Charge promptly. By doing so, they contribute directly to the growth and transformation of Lagos into a #Greater Lagos that all residents can be proud of.


“To ensure convenience and seamless payment, property owners can pay their Land Use Charge using the following methods: Internet Banking; Bank Deposits – at designated banks across the state; Mobile Payment – through USSD codes; POS available at LUC offices; Lagos Online Assistant - (LOLA - Whatsapp Robotic payment platform)”, he added.


The Commissioner, therefore, urged all property owners to take advantage of the 15% discount by paying early and playing their part in making Lagos a modern, thriving metropolis.
