 EASTER SECURITY ASSESSMENT: ANAMBRA POLICE EXPRESS CONCERN OVER MASKED SECURITY PERSONNEL PROTECTING VIPs, WARN OF SECURITY RISKS The Anambra State Police Command has expressed serious concern over the growing trend of some security operatives concealing their identities while providing protection to Very Important Personalities (VIPs) within the State. The Command notes that while security duties often require tactical discretion, the act of masking identities without proper authorization raises significant security concerns. Such practices, it observed, not only pose a potential threat to public safety but also undermine trust, accountability, and the integrity of inter-agency collaboration. To this end, the Commissioner of Police CP Ikioye Orutugu fwc mnips PhD reiterates that identifiable security personnel remain a critical component of coordinated security operations, especially in an environment that demands synergy among various agencies.

 Nigerian Nurses Begin Seven-Day Warning Strike, Defying Government Appeals


The National Association of Nigeria Nurses and Midwives – Federal Health Institutions Sector (NANNM-FHI) launched a seven-day warning strike on Wednesday, July 30, 2025, despite pleas from the Federal Government to halt the action. The strike, set to end on August 5, 2025, follows the expiration of a 15-day ultimatum issued on July 14, 2025, demanding improved welfare, fair allowances, and better working conditions for nurses in federal health institutions.


National Chairman Morakinyo Rilwan, speaking on Tuesday, criticized the government’s failure to engage meaningfully with the union during the ultimatum period. “As far as we are concerned, there has been no communication from the government to this moment. That is why the strike is going on, and nothing is stopping it,” Rilwan stated. He added that even last-minute government outreach would not halt the action, noting, “They had enough time.”


The nurses’ demands include an upward review of shift allowances, adjustment of uniform allowances, a separate salary structure for nurses, increased core duty allowances, mass recruitment of nurses, and the establishment of a dedicated nursing department in the Federal Ministry of Health.


Rilwan emphasized that the strike was driven by widespread frustration among members, not just the union’s leadership. “This strike was initiated by the members, and they said this is what they want,” he said. He also addressed the government’s potential ‘no work, no pay’ policy, stating that nurses are prepared to make sacrifices. “The money they are taking is not even enough. They are ready to sacrifice as long as this strike continues,” Rilwan added.


The strike is expected to disrupt healthcare services in federal institutions, highlighting the urgent need for dialogue to address the nurses’ grievances.
