 Man brutalises his pregnant wife in Anambra  In another case of domestic violence, a pregnant woman was brutally beaten by her husband in Ichi, Ekwusigo Local Government Area of Anambra State. The mother of three identified as Chinelo Francis, from Ebonyi State, said trouble began when she requested money from her husband, Peter, to prepare food.  According to the young woman, she had already bought vegetable with the profit she made from her shop. Peter, also from Ebonyi, claimed he didn’t make money that day and took the children home.  He returned to her shop at around 8:00 PM and insisted she close up and come home with him.  She refused, explaining that the time was when she typically made most of her sales.  Later, she closed up her shop, went home at 9:30 PM, prepared the children for bed, and retired.

 FG eyes China’s C919 Jet Certification for local airlines


The Federal Government is currently working towards certifying China’s C919 jet for the country’s carriers. The Director General of the Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA), Capt. Chris Ona Najomo told Reuters the agency is considering the months-long certification process for the jet to operate on domestic routes.


Chinese planemaker COMAC is producing the narrow-body C919 to compete with leading Western planemakers Airbus and Boeing, and has held several talks with Nigeria over the aircraft. However, the report noted that the state-owned COMAC, which hopes to access the wider African market, faces challenges. Its two-plane models lack benchmark certifications from Western regulators, and it is falling behind on delivery targets. The U.S. this year temporarily halted exports of the CFM engines it uses on the C919 due to trade conflicts.


“We’re looking at the certification of the airplane. First of all, that is where we have to start,” Najomo said on the sidelines of the U.N. aviation agency’s assembly in Montreal. Najomo said COMAC officials had offered maintenance and training support for any planes operated by Nigerian carriers, and were exploring dry lease arrangements, which involve leasing aircraft without crew. “We just told them that if they can make sure they facilitate a good dry lease arrangement, it’s better,” Najomo said.


Najomo said the development was boosting confidence among lessors, enabling the country’s 13 airlines to access newer planes on the leasing market. While air travel remains costly for many Nigerians, average real airfare fell 43.6% between 2011 and 2023, according to data from IATA. Currently, the C919 is operated only by Chinese airlines.
