 Trump administration halts border wall well drilling in New Mexico after ranchers raise water concerns  The Trump administration has ordered contractors building a border wall in New Mexico to stop drilling new wells after ranchers raised concerns that groundwater pumping for construction could worsen drought conditions and threaten their livestock. The move comes as crews work to expand border barriers across four states as part of President Donald Trump’s immigration agenda. The project has received billions in federal funding and has faced criticism from residents, environmental groups and local officials over various impacts. U.S. Customs and Border Protection, which oversees construction, has said water is needed for concrete production, road construction and controlling dust. However, ranchers in southern New Mexico say water supplies are already under strain due to ongoing drought, forcing some to reduce their cattle herds.

COMEDIAN AY OPENS UP ON EFCC'S INVITATION OVER NAIRA ABUSE. (PHOTO).


 Comedian AY opens up on EFCC's invitation over Naira abuse


Comedian and filmmaker Ayo Makun, popularly known as AYLIVE, has opened up on his recent encounter with the Economic and  Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).


According to the comedian, he was invited by the anti-graft agency regarding an incident involving the public spraying of both local and foreign currencies.


He claimed  he was granted pardon after confirming that the money being sprayed is not linked to the proceeds of crime or any form of illicit funds.


In a statement on his Instagram handle, on Wednesday, May 7, AY further educated Nigerians to understand that mutilating or abusing the Naira—whether by spraying, tearing, defacing, or mishandling, is not just a cultural practice but also a violation of Nigerian law. 


He added that such acts undermine the integrity of the national currency and can have serious legal consequences.


AY's statement reads: "I am grateful to God for His mercy and guidance. On Monday, I was invited by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) regarding an incident involving the public spraying of both local and foreign currencies—an act that has been classified as an offense related to the abuse of the Naira.


"I want to sincerely thank the EFCC and all authorities involved for their understanding and for granting me pardon based on confirmation that the money being sprayed is not linked to the proceeds of crime or any form of illicit funds.


"This experience has been a valuable lesson, and I am personally committed to promoting awareness about the proper respect and care for our national currency.


"To my friends, family, and the general public: We all know that spraying money at public events is a practice common in Nigerian celebrations, especially during weddings, funerals, and parties. It is generally considered a cultural tradition rather than a criminal act. But let me attach some slides to this post on the DOS AND DON’T.


"It is important to understand that mutilating or abusing the Naira—whether by spraying, tearing, defacing, or mishandling—is not just a cultural practice but also a violation of Nigerian law. Such acts undermine the integrity of our national currency and can have serious legal consequences.


"Let us all strive to uphold the dignity of our currency, which is a symbol of our nation’s sovereignty and economic stability. Respect for the Naira is respect for Nigeria’s future.


"Together, we can promote responsible behavior and foster a culture of patriotism and integrity."
