 Türkiye is planning to establish local defence production facilities and military training centres in Nigeria as part of efforts to strengthen security cooperation and increase bilateral trade to $5 billion. Turkish Ambassador to Nigeria, Mehmet Poroy, disclosed this on Monday in Abuja, saying the proposed facilities would enable Türkiye to support local military equipment production rather than simply supplying weapons and equipment. He also revealed that 200 Nigerian special forces personnel were undergoing a two-month training programme in Türkiye, with plans underway to establish a similar facility in Nigeria. “We are planning to have some local production unit also in that context, not only selling to Nigeria the tools, equipment, the arms that it needs, but also the possibility of having local production here in Nigeria,” Poroy said.

 Kaduna Govt Compensates Victims Of 2015 Alhuda Huda Demolition In Zaria


The Kaduna State Government has compensated victims affected by the 2015 demolition of properties around Alhuda Huda College in Zaria, in a move aimed at addressing a longstanding injustice suffered by affected residents.


The compensation exercise, approved by Governor Uba Sani, comes shortly after the state government approved compensation for affected farmers in Giwa Local Government Area.


The demolished houses, located behind Alhuda Huda College, were reportedly removed during a previous administration without compensation to residents, leaving many families facing economic hardship and years of uncertainty.


To implement the compensation package, the Director-General of Kaduna Geographic Information Service, Dr. Bashir Garba Ibrahim, led a delegation to Zaria where offer letters for new residential plots were presented to beneficiaries. The plots were allocated at zero premium as part of efforts to restore the losses suffered by the victims.


Speaking during the presentation, officials said the intervention reflects the state government's commitment to justice, fairness and responsible governance.


The event was attended by Mahmud Lawal Ismail, who was acknowledged for his role in advocating for the affected residents.


Beneficiaries expressed appreciation to Governor Uba Sani and the Kaduna State Government for responding to their concerns and providing relief more than a decade after the demolition exercise. They described the gesture as a significant step toward restoring hope and delivering justice to affected families.
