The Timi of Ede, Oba Munirudeen Adesola Lawal, has broken his silence over his absence during a recent campaign visit to his palace by the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate, Bola Oyebamiji. In a sharp reaction that has intensified political tensions ahead of the August 15 governorship election, the monarch declared that he had no blessings for the opposition party, stating he would have instead invoked a royal curse on its members. The monarch’s absence during the APC delegation`s visit last Tuesday triggered a fierce social media debate. APC supporters accused the traditional ruler of deliberately boycotting the opposition because the incumbent Governor, Ademola Adeleke—who is seeking re-election under the Accord party platform—is an indigene of Ede. However, speaking on Tuesday during an Accord campaign rally in Ede, Oba Lawal dismissed claims that he fled the palace. The first-class monarch revealed he was actually waiting to confront the APC team over a controversial campaign slogan used by its supporters. According to a video circulated by Arise TV, the monarch, speaking in Yoruba, directly linked his anger to the slogan "E Pana Ede, E Tan Ti Ikire" (meaning "Turn off Ede’s light, turn on Ikire’s light"). The phrase targets Governor Adeleke’s hometown of Ede in favor of Oyebamiji’s native home, Ikire. "There is a rumour that I left the palace on the day the APC people came to visit me," Oba Lawal said. "I was actually waiting for the day they would come so I could ask them why they said `Off Ede Light.` What do they expect from me? It would have been a curse." Before the monarch`s public outburst, attempts had been made to downplay the incident. Alhaji Gbedebo Ajao, a member of the Osun State APC Elders Caucus, had previously stated that the traditional ruler’s absence was strictly non-political. Ajao explained that Oba Lawal and other members of the Ede/Egbedore Traditional Council had traveled to Ile-Ife to commiserate with the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, over the demise of his elder brother. Ajao noted that the APC had fact-checked the trip and was even looking to secure a new date for the palace visit. Despite the official excuse, APC loyalists have continued to criticize the monarch for failing to maintain a neutral, fatherly role. Social media commentator Awwal Tunde Alawo pointed out that this was the second time opposition groups faced a cold reception in Ede, alleging that the palace gates were similarly shut against the African Democratic Congress (ADC) candidate, Rt. Hon. Najeem Salaam, two weeks ago. Critics argue that while Governor Adeleke enjoys warm receptions from traditional rulers across Osun State, Oba Lawal has failed to extend the same courtesy to rival candidates. With the governorship election less than three weeks away, the royal standoff has further polarized voters in what is shaping up to be a highly combustible electoral contest.

Governor Seyi Makinde has issued a heartfelt message of gratitude to the citizens of Oyo State, praising their resilience and unwavering support for his administration. The Governor reassured the public that his team remains completely focused on delivering impactful governance that directly improves the lives of everyday residents. "To the good people of Oyo State, thank you for your patience and support," Governor Makinde stated. "As I have always said, we are here to serve you and we will always act in your best interests." The administration is currently accelerating several key developmental projects across the state`s geopolitical zones. These initiatives span critical sectors, including infrastructural expansion, healthcare upgrades, and agricultural incentives designed to boost local food production. Government house sources indicate that new social welfare packages are being finalized to cushion current economic pressures. The upcoming programs will focus on small business grants and enhanced support for vulnerable groups across the 33 local government areas. State officials emphasize that public feedback remains central to shaping government policies. Citizens are encouraged to maintain an open, constructive dialogue with leadership to ensure community needs are met accurately and efficiently.

The National Cashew Association of Nigeria (NCAN) has launched a 10-year strategic roadmap to scale up the country`s raw cashew nut production from 300,000 tonnes to one million tonnes, with a mandate to process 50 per cent of the total yield domestically. The initiative was announced during the inauguration of the association’s national and state chapter executives in Abuja. The strategy aims to accelerate industrialisation, increase non-oil export earnings, attract foreign direct investments, and create thousands of jobs across cashew-producing states. Speaking at the event, THENEWSCREDIT gathered NCAN National President, Ademola Adesokan, emphasized that the target is a practical roadmap with measurable milestones rather than a mere aspiration. He stated that while policies originate at the federal level, the core drivers of the value chain—production, aggregation, storage, and quality assurance—rest within the farming communities. Adesokan explained that the newly formed state chapters will serve as the operational backbone of the strategy, ensuring strict quality control and enhanced supply chain traceability. This grassroots coordination is expected to build confidence among processors and exporters, making Nigerian cashew highly competitive on the global stage. THENEWSCREDIT reports that the Federal Ministry of Industry, Trade and Investment (FMITI) pledged its full policy backing for the initiative, describing the inauguration as the official transition from policy formulation to direct execution. Delivering the ministry’s goodwill message on behalf of the Director of the Industrial Development Department, Olumuyiwa Jayi-Ade, Assistant Director Popoola Abimbola commended NCAN’s collaborative role in validating the Nigeria Cashew Roadmap. To ensure seamless execution, Abimbola revealed that the ministry, in partnership with the Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security, NCAN, and development partners, will establish the Nigerian Cashew Project Office (NCPO). The new office will handle stakeholder collaboration, monitor execution frameworks, and drive reforms across the value chain. FMITI also encouraged NCAN members to ensure the financial sustainability of the association through the prompt payment of dues to strengthen its capacity for policy advocacy. Highlighting the economic importance of the sector, the Director of the Commodities and Export Department, Obasi Edozie, described the expansion of state chapters as a major institutional milestone for industry governance. Edozie reaffirmed that cashew remains one of Nigeria’s most strategic non-oil commodities capable of generating vital foreign exchange, driving rural development, and stimulating industrial growth. He urged all value chain stakeholders to stay united in enforcing global quality standards, improving traceability, and expanding local processing capacities to capture maximum value from the sector.

The Southern and Middle Belt Leaders Forum (SMBLF) has strongly backed the creation of state police but demanded full constitutional powers for governors to appoint and dismiss state Commissioners of Police. The regional leaders warned that any arrangement short of this authority would merely create a "Federal State Police" rather than a genuinely decentralised system rooted in true federalism. The position was part of the resolutions reached at a stakeholders` meeting held at the PANDEF liaison office in Abuja. The high-level political gathering was attended by prominent elder statesmen, including former Akwa Ibom State Governor Obong Victor Attah, former Enugu State Governor Okwesilieze Nwodo, PANDEF National Chairman Dr Godknows Igali, and Middle Belt Forum President Dr Bitrus Pogu. Reading the communiqué, SMBLF Chairman and Afenifere leader, Chief Oladipo Olaitan, argued that governors must hold the same executive authority over their state commissioners as the President holds over the Inspector-General of Police. The forum, which comprises Afenifere, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, PANDEF, and the Middle Belt Forum, insisted that meaningful state policing can only succeed if backed by genuine constitutional autonomy. Beyond restructuring the security architecture, the forum renewed its demand for a brand-new constitution that would devolve more powers to the federating units and better reflect Nigeria’s federal character. Olaitan stated that the group is prepared to mobilise citizens nationwide to vote exclusively for presidential candidates who are fully committed to delivering a new constitution to the people. Turning their attention to the upcoming 2027 general elections, the regional leaders reaffirmed their earlier stance that the presidency must remain in the Southern region after President Bola Tinubu’s first term. The leaders argued that maintaining this rotational arrangement is absolutely necessary for national cohesion, equity, and political stability across the country. The SMBLF also expressed deep concern over the erosion of internal democracy across major political parties, strongly condemning the alleged dominance of party structures by a few individuals during ongoing primary elections. They criticised the situation where an oligarchy handpicks candidates, noting that excluding independent candidates is antithetical to democracy and sustainable national development. On national security, the forum praised the armed forces for recent successes against criminal elements in parts of the country, specifically highlighting operational gains in Oyo, Zamfara, and Borno states. However, they urged the Federal Government to sustain the momentum and intensify actions in violence-prone states across the Middle Belt, including Benue, Plateau, Kaduna, Kwara, and Kogi. This intervention comes amid growing national debate over the operational framework for state police as the National Assembly considers crucial constitutional amendments. While proponents argue that decentralised policing will improve local intelligence gathering, critics continue to warn against potential abuse by state governors, leaving the nation divided on the execution strategy.

The Benue State Police Command has apprehended a man identified as Terfa Nyikwagh for allegedly killing his biological father. The incident happened in the Katsina-Ala Local Government Area of Benue State following a severe family dispute. According to reports, the tragic event originally occurred on Friday, July 24, 2026. Security analyst Zagazola Makama brought the matter to public attention through an official update posted on Monday night via X (formerly Twitter). The underlying conflict reportedly stemmed from an intensely heated argument between the suspect and his father, Mr. Nyikwagh Abor. The dispute centered on the circumstances surrounding the recent death of Terfa’s brother, Ternenge Uwuh. As the confrontation escalated, the suspect reportedly engaged in a physical assault against his father. The elderly man suffered fatal injuries and passed away as a result of the encounter. The local community was thrown into a state of shock until the Clan Head of Turan-Tse Twar, Injorov Tongov, Zaki Akor Kpan, intervened. The traditional ruler formally lodged a criminal complaint at the nearest police division on Saturday, July 25, 2026. In a swift response, the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) for Katsina-Ala mobilized a tactical team to the community. Law enforcement operatives successfully arrested the suspect at the scene without facing any physical resistance. The victim’s body has since been recovered and deposited at a local hospital mortuary for a post-mortem examination. Detectives are currently interrogating the suspect to uncover additional details before officially charging him in court.

The Federal Government of Nigeria has launched a landmark mobile learning initiative to revolutionize professional development for educators, with a strategic focus on empowering female teachers and school leaders across the country. The project is driven by a high-level partnership between the Federal Ministry of Education, the UNESCO International Institute for Capacity Building in Africa (UNESCO-IICBA), and the Pan-African University (PAU). To kickstart the continent-wide deployment, a intensive three-day Master Training Programme commenced on Monday in Abuja, drawing together key stakeholders and educational leaders. Running from July 21 to July 23, 2026, the workshop is designed to equip participants with modern digital tools to drastically elevate the standard of classroom instruction. Formally titled “Empowering Female Teachers and School Leaders through Integrating Mobile-based Learning in the Pan-African Virtual and Electronic University (PAVEU) Initiative,” the project is fully funded by the Government of Japan. Nigeria serves as a primary hub for the rollout, which simultaneously targets four other African nations: Algeria, Cameroon, Kenya, and South Sudan. According to an official statement signed by Boriowo Folasade, Director of Press and Public Relations at the Federal Ministry of Education, the initiative solves critical systemic bottlenecks in African education. The digital platform is engineered to bypass traditional obstacles such as deficient school infrastructure, geographical isolation, and severe time constraints for working mothers. Technologically, the PAVEU platform utilizes a low-data, offline-friendly architecture tailored for rural and underserved environments. This enables female educators to access high-quality training modules, pedagogical research, and leadership certifications on standard mobile devices without requiring expensive, continuous internet connectivity. The initiative aligns with Nigeria’s ongoing tech-driven educational reforms aimed at reversing falling learning outcomes. By prioritizing women, who form the backbone of primary and secondary education, the government seeks to create a sustainable multiplier effect that directly improves student performance nationwide. Reaffirming its long-term vision, the Ministry of Education emphasized that digital inclusion is no longer optional for the teaching workforce. The government reiterated its commitment to continuous international collaborations to build a resilient, flexible, and future-ready educational system capable of thriving in the digital age.

President Bola Tinubu’s transmission of the National Senior Secondary Education Commission (NSSEC) Amendment Bill to the Senate is a vital intervention for Nigeria`s failing public schools. For too long, public senior secondary education has been the neglected middle child of our national academic strategy. While primary education receives universal basic funding and tertiary institutions grab headlines through strikes and subsidies, secondary schools have quietly decayed. This proposed legislative overhaul represents a crucial opportunity to rescue the sector from administrative paralysis and infrastructural collapse. Breaking the Bureaucratic Gridlock The core value of this 2026 amendment lies in its promise to strip away the bureaucratic bottlenecks that have crippled the NSSEC since its inception. Originally designed to enforce uniform standards and manage critical intervention funds, the commission has frequently been reduced to a toothless bulldog. Conflicting state-level policies and a lack of enforcement teeth have allowed individual states to ignore federal quality guidelines. By granting the commission stronger legal powers, the federal government can finally compel underperforming states to meet national benchmarks. Uniformity in academic governance is not about centralizing control; it is about ensuring that a child in a rural community receives the same quality of education as one in a metropolitan hub. Funding Accountability Over Empty Promises Beyond administrative restructuring, the true test of this bill will be its ability to unlock and safeguard intervention funds. Nigeria’s public secondary schools are visually defined by dilapidated classrooms, obsolete laboratories, and a severe shortage of qualified teachers. However, throwing money at these problems without a robust legal framework has historically led to corruption and waste. If this amendment passes, it must establish foolproof accountability mechanisms. The NSSEC must have the power to track every naira deployed for infrastructural upgrades and teacher retraining, ensuring that state governments do not divert these resources into political vanity projects. A Test of Legislative Urgency Senate President Godswill Akpabio’s swift referral of the bill to the Committee on Rules and Business is a commendable start, but the legislature must maintain this momentum. President Tinubu’s request for accelerated consideration is fully justified; educational decay does not wait for legislative convenience. Every week the bill stalls is another week students sit in crumbling classrooms under the guidance of undertrained staff. The Senate must debate this bill with the urgency of a national emergency, balancing speed with thorough scrutiny to ensure no legal loopholes remain. The Bottom Line Human capital is Nigeria’s greatest resource, and the senior secondary level is the bridge to either higher learning or immediate economic productivity. The Renewed Hope Agenda cannot succeed if the foundational bridge of our youth remains broken. Passing the NSSEC Amendment Bill will not fix public education overnight, but it will finally provide the legal tools, financial accountability, and structural discipline needed to build a competitive, nationwide standard of learning. The National Assembly must act swiftly to turn this executive blueprint into transformative reality. The Human Cost: What Happens to School Staff? The restructuring of the National Senior Secondary Education Commission (NSSEC) brings massive uncertainty for thousands of teachers and non-teaching staff. While policy papers focus on "efficiency" and "standards," the people on the frontlines face immediate career anxieties. The proposed amendment threatens job security through professional cleansing, targeting unqualified teachers and reducing non-teaching staff via administrative mergers while initiating a crackdown on payroll fraud. Staff face a retraining and re-certification hurdle, requiring mandatory skills testing and adaptation to digitized frameworks, though with access to dedicated intervention funds for skill updates. Furthermore, the legislation aims for standardized welfare, which could trigger intense resistance from the Nigeria Union of Teachers (NUT) regarding pay, pension changes, and forced rural redeployment.

President Bola Tinubu has transmitted a new bill to the Senate seeking to restructure and strengthen the administration of public senior secondary schools across Nigeria. The executive request represents a major legislative push by the current administration to address foundational gaps in the country`s post-basic education system. The National Senior Secondary Education Commission (Amendment) Bill, 2026, aims to improve academic governance, elevate learning standards, and reinforce the commission`s operational frameworks. By updating the existing legal structure, the presidency intends to drive uniform academic excellence and accountability across all thirty-six states and the Federal Capital Territory. The legislative request was contained in an official executive communication read by Senate President Godswill Akpabio during Thursday`s plenary session. In the letter, President Tinubu detailed the administrative trajectory of the bill, noting that the Federal Executive Council (FEC) had thoroughly debated and approved the amendment during its cabinet meeting on April 30, 2026. According to the president, the proposed legislation is a direct reflection of his administration`s Renewed Hope Agenda, which prioritizes human capital development. He emphasized that building stronger educational institutions is vital to improving student learning outcomes and equipping the youth to drive long-term national development. In a strong appeal to the federal lawmakers, President Tinubu urged the upper legislative chamber to accord the bill accelerated consideration. He stressed that a swift regulatory overhaul is in the national interest, expressing confidence that the Senate would grant the document an expeditious passage to prevent administrative delays. Responding to the executive communication, Senate President Akpabio immediately referred the amendment bill to the Senate Committee on Rules and Business. He directed the committee to place the bill on the order paper for formal legislative debate and mandated them to report back to the wider Senate within one week. The National Senior Secondary Education Commission was originally established to coordinate the development of public senior secondary schools, set minimum standards, and manage funding interventions. Over time, bureaucratic bottlenecks and conflicting state policies have hampered its capacity, making this new amendment crucial for its enforcement powers. If passed by the National Assembly and signed into law, the bill will grant the commission stronger legal teeth to enforce quality assurance guidelines nationwide. Stakeholders expect that the enhanced legal framework will also unlock critical intervention funds needed to upgrade dilapidated infrastructure and retrain secondary school teachers.
