ALLEGED WIRETAPPING: COURT REJECTS EL-RUFAI’S NO-CASE SUBMISSION, ORDERS HIM TO ENTER DEFENCE A Federal High Court in Abuja has ordered former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, to enter his defence, if he so desires, in his ongoing trial over the alleged unlawful interception of the telephone communications of the National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu. Justice Joyce Abdulmalik gave the order on Monday while ruling on El-Rufai’s no-case submission. The judge dismissed the application, holding that the prosecution had presented sufficient evidence to warrant calling on the defendant to enter his defence. The court adjourned the case until November 25 for the defence.

Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has issued an apology to Lagos residents who were stranded in traffic for hours due to repair work on the Independence Bridge.


The bridge's closure on Wednesday evening resulted in a massive gridlock that lasted until early Thursday, leaving thousands of commuters stuck in the area.


Videos and photos of the stranded commuters went viral on social media, sparking widespread criticism.


In response, Governor Sanwo-Olu visited the site on Thursday morning to inspect the repair work and apologized for the inconvenience caused.


"I want to start by apologizing to all Lagosians for the difficult traffic situation we experienced in the last 24 hours," Sanwo-Olu said, accompanied by his deputy, Obafemi Hamzat, and other officials.


The governor acknowledged that more could have been done to communicate with residents about the repair work and its potential impact on traffic.
