 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.

 Judge orders Trump trust financial records released in BBC documentary lawsuit over $10 billion claim

A federal judge has ordered President Donald Trump to provide financial records from his trust as part of his lawsuit against the BBC, allowing the network to review documents connected to his claim that a disputed documentary edit caused him significant financial harm.

Judge Enjoliqué Aytch Lett approved a subpoena requesting records from the Donald J. Trump Revocable Trust dating back to January 1, 2023. The order limits the scope of the request, ruling that records from that period should provide enough information to evaluate Trump’s financial position before and after the documentary’s release.

Trump’s legal team has argued that expert testimony based on the financial records could help support their claim for $10 billion in damages.

The lawsuit stems from a BBC documentary that aired in October 2024 and included edited portions of a Trump speech. The network later acknowledged that the editing created the impression that Trump had delivered a continuous statement encouraging violent action related to the January 6 Capitol attack, when the footage was actually taken from separate parts of the speech.

The BBC issued an apology but declined to provide financial compensation over the incident. The controversy also led to the resignations of BBC Director-General Tim Davie and news executive Deborah Turness.

The court’s ruling now allows the BBC access to financial documents as the legal dispute moves forward.
