In the future, we hope to settle our differences with Kwankwaso and work together. We have worked together before, we are family.

NELFUND dismisses loan repayment rumours, assures students of protection under law

The Nigerian Education Loan Fund, NELFUND, has debunked widespread reports suggesting that beneficiaries of the federal government’s student loan scheme have been instructed to begin repayment, describing the claims as false, misleading and capable of causing needless panic among students.

In a statement issued in Abuja on Saturday, NELFUND clarified that it has not issued any directive mandating students to repay their loans, contrary to claims circulating across social media and some media platforms.

Signed by the Director of Strategic Communications, Mrs. Oseyemi Oluwatuyi, the Fund reiterated its readiness to engage stakeholders and provide clarity whenever needed.

The Fund’s clarification follows a public disclaimer by the Vice-Chancellor of the University of Benin,UNIBEN, Prof. Edoba Bright Omoregie ,SAN, who disowned a purported circular allegedly outlining repayment procedures for NELFUND loans

According to the university, the document did not originate from UNIBEN, and no repayment guideline has been issued by NELFUND or the federal government.

NELFUND stressed that the conditions for loan repayment are clearly spelt out in its Establishment Act, which safeguards beneficiaries from repayment obligations while still in school or during periods of unemployment after graduation

I can call myself a graduate today because of Tinubu NELFUND ❤️👏

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is currently in a meeting with the Governor of Kano State, Abba Kabir Yusuf, at the State House, Abuja.

The Kano governor arrived at the State House some minutes past 4 pm and was led towards the President’s office by the Chief of Staff to the President, Hon Femi Gbajabiamila.

The closed-door meeting comes amid speculation over a possible defection by Governor Yusuf, who was elected on the platform of the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP), to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

It will be recalled that the national leader of the NNPP, Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso, had earlier dismissed reports suggesting that he approved or endorsed any planned defection by the Kano State governor, insisting that no such consent was given.

Political watchers say talks around the reported defection have been ongoing for weeks, though sources suggest negotiations may have stalled over disagreements, including whether the governor would be granted an automatic ticket ahead of the 2027 general elections.

The speculation has also reportedly deepened tensions between some of Governor Yusuf’s supporters and loyalists of his political mentor, Kwankwaso.

The meeting with the President might not be unconnected with the planned defection.

Details of the meeting are expected to emerge later.

European military personnel arrive in Greenland as Trump says US needs island

A small French military contingent has arrived in Greenland's capital Nuuk, officials say, as several European states deploy small numbers in a so-called reconnaissance mission.

The limited deployment, which also involves Germany, Sweden, Norway, Finland, the Netherlands and the UK, comes as US President Donald Trump continues to press his claim to the Arctic island, which is a semi-autonomous part of Denmark.

French President Emmanuel Macron said the initial contingent would be reinforced soon with "land, air, and sea assets".

Senior diplomat Olivier Poivre d'Arvor saw the mission as sending a strong political signal: "This is a first exercise... we'll show the US that Nato is present."

Poivre d'Arvor said the initial French deployment involved 15 people, hours after Denmark and Greenland's foreign ministers travelled to Washington for a meeting with US Vice-President JD Vance on Wednesday.

Won't this defection affects the dynamics? Loyalty will shift, interest will shift and only the puns will be discarded, to make room for new ones.

Ford employee who heckled Trump sparks over $800,000 in GoFundMe donations

The GoFundMe donations, totaling over $800,000 in less than 24 hours, come after the Ford line worker, TJ Sabula, told The Washington Post that he heckled Trump during the President's visit to his workplace.

Trump visited a Michigan plant on Tuesday where the automaker builds its best-selling F-150 full-size pickup truck. The brief visit was intended to highlight the White House's commitment to rebuilding the US workforce and Ford's focus on rebuilding a blue-collar workforce pipeline.

Video from the event obtained by TMZ shows Trump gesturing after someone shouted pedophile protector — which Sabula has since said was him — in an apparent reference to White House's delay in releasing the full Epstein files. The President can be seen raising his middle finger after the remark and mouthing an expletive.
