By Hamisu Kabir Matazu Wed, 6 May 2026 10:44:39 WAT  Hon Audu Mustapha Ganga, member representing Magumeri Constituency in the Borno State House of Assembly, has pleaded with his constituents to endorse his fifth-term bid. The lawmaker, who has occupied the position for 16 years, burst into tears while appealing to stakeholders from his constituency who are calling for new representation. “You know I am from a poor background, but I was able to do many things for you. I promise to give you better representation if given another chance,” he said in a viral video.

| Politics › 18-yrs-old Nigerian,Emerges The Youngest Commercial Pilot in Nation’s History by yahyus(op): 6:48pm On Oct 22, 2025 |
18-Year-Old Nigerian, Muhammad Aminu Sani, Emerges One of the Youngest Commercial Pilot in the Nation’s History At just 18 years old, Muhammad Aminu Sani has etched his name into Nigeria’s aviation history as one of the youngest Nigerian ever to earn a U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Commercial Multi-Engine Pilot License—an extraordinary feat achieved at Phoenix East Aviation (PEA) in Daytona Beach, Florida. What makes his story even more remarkable is that Aminu completed the entire rigorous program in under 12 months, passing every stage of training without a single checkride failure—a very impressive accomplishment, even for seasoned trainees. His success marks a powerful testament to discipline, resilience, and focus, and it positions him as a beacon of inspiration to young Nigerians with global dreams. According to him, “Becoming a pilot has always been my childhood dream, and today I’m proud to say I’m living that dream and enjoying every step of the journey,” Aminu said with pride. “It’s been an incredible experience filled with hard work, discipline, and passion. I hope my story inspires others to chase their dreams with determination and never give up on what they believe.” Aminu, who only turned 18 last week, represents a new wave of young Nigerians breaking international barriers through education, determination, and excellence. Born and raised in Abuja, Aminu completed his High School Diploma at Al-Hidaayah Academy in December 2023 before proceeding to The Regent College Abuja, where he graduated with Distinction in Economics Foundation in July 2024. His academic excellence laid the groundwork for his flight training in the United States, where he proved equally exceptional in the skies. At Phoenix East Aviation, one of the world’s most respected FAA Part 141 flight schools, Aminu trained in diverse conditions—ranging from night flights and cross-country missions to instrument-rated navigation through rain and low visibility. He logged an impressive flight hours in hundreds, including over 50 hours on multi-engine aircraft like the PA-34-200 Seneca and over 30 hours of cross-country flight time. With a 97% average score in all FAA written examinations and a record of zero failures, Aminu’s journey exemplifies the discipline and mental toughness required to excel in modern aviation. He now holds FAA Private Pilot (AMEL) certifications. Beyond the numbers, Aminu’s achievement resonates deeply with Nigeria’s youth population. In a time when many young people seek inspiration and global relevance, his story stands as proof that age is not a barrier to excellence and that dreams, when matched with determination, can take flight—literally. Aminu aspires to join a leading international airline as a First Officer, where he hopes to continue learning, flying, and representing Nigeria proudly among the world’s elite aviators. From a young boy in Abuja who looked up at the skies with wonder to now a licensed commercial pilot at 18, Muhammad Aminu Sani’s journey is more than an achievement—it is a symbol of hope, excellence, and the limitless potential of the Nigerian youth. https://www.thisdaylive.com/2025/10/22/18-year-old-nigerian-muhammad-aminu-sani-emerges-one-of-the-youngest-commercial-pilots-in-the-nations-history/ 1 Like 1 Share |

| Politics › Lagos To Commence $3 Billion Green Line Project Linking Marina To Lekki By Dec. by yahyus(op): 11:57am On Oct 13, 2025 |
The Lagos State Government has announced that construction of the $3 billion Green Line rail project, connecting Marina to the Lekki corridor, is scheduled to begin in December 2025. The announcement was made by the Lagos State Commissioner for Transportation, Oluwaseun Osiyemi, in a statement posted on the official X account of the Lagos State Government on Monday. https://nairametrics.com/2025/10/13/lagos-to-commence-3-billion-green-line-project-linking-marina-to-lekki-by-december/ Osiyemi noted that extensive feasibility studies and stakeholder consultations have been carried out along the Lekki-Epe corridor in preparation for the project. The rail project is expected to take two to three years to complete and will be implemented in phases. The first phase will cover the stretch from Lekki First Tollgate to Epe, while the second phase, starting from Marina, will feature an on-water segment. “The Commissioner for Transportation, Mr. Seun Osiyemi remarked that the government had done a lot of stakeholder engagements as well as a lot of feasibility studies along the Lekki-Epe Expressway Corridor because the Green Line project will commence in December. He explained that the Green Line project would take about two to three years and would begin from Marina all the way to Epe, saying the projects would come in phases, with the first phase from Lekki First Tollgate to Epe and the second Phase from Marina would be on the water,” the statement read in part. The announcement follows intensified enforcement along the Lekki-Epe Expressway, where authorities have cleared encroachments and restored wetlands essential to the Green Line’s right-of-way. What you should know The 70-kilometre Green Line will run from Marina to the Lekki Free Trade Zone, featuring 17 stations along a mix of elevated and at-grade tracks. The line begins at Marina, passes through Victoria Island, joins the Lekki-Epe Expressway, and continues through Ajah, Sangotedo, and Lekki Free Zone. Stations will have modern designs with pedestrian bridges, elevators, escalators, and a depot near Sangotedo, alongside a 15-hectare parking facility at the Lekki Free Zone. Trains will operate in eight-car B-type sets, reaching speeds up to 100 km/h and a minimum headway of three minutes, with a projected capacity of 35,000 passengers per hour per direction. On April 9, 2025, a video released by the Lagos Metropolitan Area Transport Authority (LAMATA) announced the estimated $3 billion cost of the project, detailing the alignments, design elements, and overall cost of the Green Line project. Nairametrics had earlier reported the partial federal counterpart funding of N146.14 billion included in the 2025 budget, as well as the tripartite agreement signed with China Harbour Engineering Company to design, finance, and operate the line. The project is estimated at $3 billion, with partial federal counterpart funding of N146.14 billion included in the 2025 budget and a tripartite agreement signed with China Harbour Engineering Company to design, finance, and operate the line. Experts have raised concerns over station spacing and operational capacity. Sparse coverage in Victoria Island and wide gaps along Lekki could limit ridership, while eight-car trains may be insufficient for long-term demand. Adding stations in high-traffic zones and aligning operations with existing lines were suggested to enhance accessibility and efficiency. https://nairametrics.com/2025/10/13/lagos-to-commence-3-billion-green-line-project-linking-marina-to-lekki-by-december/ |

| Politics › Cbn’s Early Exit Package Not Targeted At Northerners, Says Dep Gov by yahyus(op): 4:39pm On Jul 30, 2025 |
CBN’s early exit package not targeted at Northerners, says dep gov The Central Bank of Nigeria has reiterated that its Early Exit Package implemented in 2024 was entirely voluntary and not to target or destabilise Northerners working in the apex bank. The Bank’s Deputy Governor on Economic Policy, Muhammad Abdullahi, restated this on Wednesday in Kaduna at a two-day Interactive Session on Government-Citizens Engagement, organised by the Sir Ahmadu Bello Memorial Foundation. Speaking during plenary on Governance and Economy, Abdullahi said the bank was congested at its headquarters in Abuja, and an offer was made to anyone interested in exiting, but with a huge package. “The bank was so crowded at the headquarters and jam-packed that there was no space; the limited space and exit routes in the building were converted to offices, and hence not healthy for the workers. “Due to the crowded and suffocating space, the insurance company expressed serious concerns about securing the building with its insurance policy, hence the need for decongestion. “Meanwhile, there are ample spaces in the Bank’s offices in Lagos, Kaduna and other places that could absorb a large number of workers from the headquarters. “Some of those staff members taken to Lagos and Kaduna are now so happy that they don’t even want to come back to Abuja. “It is not an agenda against anybody,’’ he said. Abdullahi said the apex bank has been practicing early exit in the last 20 years, but it has been done when the management at the top is very heavy. Related News North has no regret supporting Tinubu — Bagudu VIDEO: Cheers as Super Falcons arrive Lagos with WAFCON trophy UNIPORT denies viral snake scare, calls reports false, misleading “When such is observed, the governor will constitute a committee comprising the staff members, and they will come out with an offer, but only for those who want to take it. It is voluntary, not forced on anyone. “Some workers were very happy to take the exit offer and establish a microfinance bank. “So, is an opportunity for those who want to move ahead and do other things with their lives,” Abdullahi said. He further explained that there was misinformation and a wrong narrative about 16 directors in the bank, adding that it is unfortunate. “Let me state here that there are a lot of directors who are from the Northern Region and are currently working in the bank. “People should stop listening to unpatriotic elements that spread fake news to misguide and incite the masses. “The son of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation was moved out of Abuja to Lagos. “Nobody was spared. It is a policy of the bank. People should please understand all these,” Abdullahi said. NAN https://punchng.com/cbns-early-exit-package-not-targeted-at-northerners-says-dep-gov/ |
| Politics › ANALYSIS: Winners, Losers In Dangote Petroleum’s Free Logistics Distribution. by yahyus(op): 3:56pm On Jul 07, 2025 |
On 15 June, Dangote Petroleum Refinery announced a nationwide fuel distribution initiative scheduled to commence on 15 August. This programme aims to distribute Premium Motor Spirit (PMS, or petrol) and diesel directly to marketers, petrol dealers, manufacturers, telecommunications firms, aviation companies, and other significant fuel consumers, coupled with complimentary logistics support. The initiative will utilise 4,000 new Compressed Natural Gas (CNG)-powered tankers and other logistics vehicles to create distribution hubs and “daughter booster stations” for efficient delivery, particularly to rural and underserved regions. Furthermore, Dangote will provide a credit facility for purchasers of at least 500,000 litres, allowing them to obtain an additional 500,000 litres on credit for two weeks, contingent upon a bank guarantee. Registration for this programme will be open from 16 June to 15 August, with a requirement for Know Your Customer (KYC) verification. Impact on Pricing The free logistics initiative is strategically designed to lower fuel distribution expenses, representing 10-30 per cent of fuel prices in Nigeria, especially in rural areas. Dangote aims to decrease pump prices and foster price uniformity nationwide by absorbing transportation costs. Analysts have predicted the following potential price impacts: Petrol (PMS): With Dangote’s ex-depot price estimated at approximately ₦835-₦850 per litre and free delivery services, retail prices at partner outlets and stations sourcing directly from Dangote are expected to stabilise between ₦870-₦920 per litre nationwide. This marks a substantial reduction from previous highs of ₦1,030 per litre in certain areas. – Diesel: Dangote has lowered its ex-depot diesel price to as low as ₦940 per litre for bulk purchases, which may lead to retail prices stabilising between ₦980 – ₦1,050 per litre. This pricing structure is particularly advantageous for the manufacturing and transportation sectors, which are major consumers of diesel. Audience Feedback Survey Moreover, reduced fuel prices could translate into lowered production costs for various industries, alleviating transportation expenses and potentially mitigating inflation, a critical issue facing Nigeria. The initiative aligns with the Nigerian government’s “Naira-for-Crude” scheme, aimed at stabilising fuel supply amid global oil price fluctuations. However, stability in pricing will depend on various factors, including the stability of the naira and global crude oil prices. Nevertheless, there are inherent risks to consider: If Dangote were to transition to dollar-based sales due to potential crude supply issues—as in March when naira-based sales were suspended—pump prices could increase, leading to heightened transport and production costs and further. The Petroleum Products Retail Outlets Owners Association of Nigeria (PETROAN) has raised concerns that Dangote’s market dominance could result in a pricing strategy that initially lowers prices to gain market share but may subsequently lead to increased prices, potentially disadvantaging consumers in the long term. Impact on Competition Dangote’s direct distribution model is poised to disrupt Nigeria’s downstream petroleum sector by circumventing traditional intermediaries, such as depot owners and import-dependent marketers. The competitive landscape will experience notable shifts, which can be summarised as follows: WINNERS ● Independent Marketers and Retail Outlets: Direct access to Dangote’s products eliminates intermediaries, reducing costs and enhancing supply reliability, particularly for rural filling stations. The credit facility also improves affordability for smaller players. ● Consumers: Increased competition alongside reduced logistics expenses may result in more stable and potentially lower fuel prices, benefiting both households and businesses. ● Dangote Refinery: By maintaining control over distribution, Dangote solidifies its market position, likely capturing a significant share of the downstream sector. Additionally, implementing CNG-powered tankers reinforces Dangote’s commitment to sustainable logistics. LOSERS ● Depot Owners: Traditional depots, reliant on storage and throughput fees, may become less viable as Dangote supplies directly to retailers. Many may encounter challenges in sustaining operations without robust logistics support. ● Import-Dependent Marketers: Dangote’s locally refined fuels and competitive pricing strategies may pose challenges for importers, especially amid foreign exchange volatility and increased costs. The refinery’s drive to halt gasoline imports further threatens their business models. ● Independent Truck Drivers and Owners: The introduction of 4,000 CNG-powered tankers may adversely affect traditional petroleum truck drivers, as Dangote’s fleet diminishes reliance on current logistics providers. PETROAN estimates significant job losses within this sector. ● Potential Monopoly Concerns: PETROAN and other stakeholders caution that Dangote’s expansive scale and direct distribution capability could lead to monopolistic behaviour, stifling competition. The refinery’s ability to unilaterally set prices or utilise penetration pricing strategies to eliminate competitors raises concerns, particularly if it consolidates control over production and distribution. Market Dynamics: The conclusion of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited’s (NNPC) exclusive purchasing agreement with Dangote in October 2024 allowed other marketers to source products directly, fostering a more competitive environment in the sector.

| Politics › How Government Policy On Computerised Roadworthiness Is Failing Due To Corruptio by yahyus(op): 4:14am On Jun 16, 2025 |
Almost eight years after Lagos State government introduced the no physical vehicle inspection, no road-worthiness certificate under its computerised vehicle inspection, the process is gradually being corrupted, with vehicle owners procuring roadworthiness certificate without their vehicles inspected. Before the computerised inspection was introduced, vehicles owners were usually issued road worthiness certificate without their vehicles being inspected. However, with the new policy vehicles are not only brought to the inspection centres, they are also diagnosed through a computer system to verify if they were road worthy, but with N10,000 bribe, vehicles are now being bypassed from the electronic checks and certificates are issued. It would be recalled that the state government said the initiative is part of the reforms in the transportation system to help improve safety on all roads across the metropolis as well as help to curb and reduce to the barest minimum, accident rate, which had spiked in recent times. Tony Okechukwu, a private car owner, revealed that roadworthiness exercise is one thing he likes to partake in, as it helps him know the condition of his vehicle and gives him a level of safe driving confidence. According to him, this year, owing to his busy work schedule, he couldn’t make it to the VIO on his inspection due date, so, he called his agent to explain his situation. “All I actually wanted to find out from the agent was the possibility of a new date as my 60 days inspection time had expired but the agent said if I tip him with N10,000, he could facilitate the getting the roadworthiness certificate without having to take my vehicle to the office. “When I asked why N10,000 that it was too much, he said that is the rate for it. Although paying to get the certificate instead of actually going for the test was not what I intended when I called him but I opted for the payment and I got someone to pick up the certificate from the agent for me,” he said. Okechukwu noted that the time spent in some inspection centres especially the one at Cele is discouraging. And there are many others who have got the certificates without their vehicles visiting any of the inspection centres. Also commenting, Adekunle Abiodun, a private car owner, said his grievance is the N500 ticket charge he is compelled to pay at the VIO inspection centre in Cele Bus Stop each time he drive into the premises for inspection. “The worst part is that the VIS officers deny involvement in these charges. They claim it is the Lagos State government that mounted the ticket unit but I see no sign that indicates the payment is from the state government. And if actually, what exactly is the reason for this payment if not another means of extortion and a way of making life harder for people in the state. “If your vehicle fails the inspection test, and you return another day after fixing the identified issues with the car, you are compelled to pay another N500 at the gate. So, I really think the Lagos State government should look into this.” Related News Spanish PM vows to fight on as corruption scandal grows Loot claims against my husband are all lies – Maryam Abacha Admission devoid of connection or corruption Speaking to The Guardian, Dare Adelabi, a commercial bus driver, said: “I have been driving danfo for over 15 years and nobody don ask me for vehicle particulars. So wetin I dey find go VIO?” he boldly declared. “Nobody don ever stop me to ask for my vehicle particulars, when Police or LASTMA stop me, I give them something (tip) as usual and dem go allow me go do my business, but road safety no dey even stop me, na private car owners dem dey stop.” Adelabi added that VIS officers on many occasions do not stop commercial vehicle drivers because it’s a total waste of their time and that of the passengers in the vehicles who have to catch up with one appointment or the other. “More so, how many commercial vehicles would they stop and arrest? I can beat my chest and say confidently that many commercial bus drivers in Lagos do not go for roadworthiness inspection. We don’t even know what they do there or how they do what they do.” But a resident, Tajudeen Abiodun said: “Exempting commercial vehicles from roadworthiness tests is a free pass for road accidents – it’s an automatic death sentence for passengers, a risk that should not be tolerated. “If any vehicle should be given a free pass from the roadworthiness test, it should not be commercial vehicle drivers at all. As a matter of fact, they should be the major partakers of the exercise. I think most private car owners make conscious effort to put their vehicles in good condition for obvious reasons – it’s their personal car, they take care of it, some even care for their cars like they care for themselves.” “Let’s run a worst-case risk scenario on private car owners Vs Commercial vehicle drivers putting vehicles that are not roadworthy on the road. For private vehicles, you have just the driver or a few others in the car. But commercial vehicles, it’s a lot of lives at risk on each vehicle and they are the ones on the road all the time because that’s their job. “So, the commercial vehicle drivers are the major road users, they are on the roads 24/7 and the government traffic law agency nonchalantly exempt them from the roadworthiness test, risking the lives of hundreds of passengers in their vehicles on a daily basis. For me, this clearly explains why a lot of accidents happen on Lagos roads. It also explains why you find commercial vehicles suddenly develop faults and stop on the roads leaving the passengers in the vehicles stranded. “Sometime last week, our vehicle stopped on the Third Mainland Bridge by 8:00pm and all 14 passengers including the driver and conductor, making 16 people in the vehicle were stranded. The driver didn’t know what was wrong with the vehicle and all of us were terrified because being on the bridge at that time was risky. All efforts to join other commercial vehicles were abortive – they didn’t even stop for us until a mini truck stopped and took us to Iyana Oworonsoki Bus Stop. “Now, tell me why a single vehicle that drives 16 people on each trip, all day long should be overlooked from taking the roadworthiness test and the VIS agents concentrate on private car owners only. It does not make any sense to me but again this is Nigeria where we conveniently ignore the need and urgency in addressing detrimental issues to chase clout. I really think the Lagos State government should mandate roadworthiness inspection for commercial vehicle users.” When The Guardian contacted the Director, Public Affairs, Ministry of Transport, she said the state government is looking for those agents, imploring residents to alert the government of such persons just to get one of the evidences. https://guardian.ng/features/focus/how-government-policy-on-computerised-roadworthiness-is-failing-due-to-corruption/ |

The Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) says it effectively captured 20,000 vehicles for various traffic infractions using its Traffic Management Solution (TMS) devices in 2024. Offenses included illegal parking, traffic obstruction, and unauthorized passenger pick-ups and drop-offs at non-designated bus stops. LASTMA introduced the TMS in July 2023 to enhance traffic law enforcement and management. Details of traffic infractions Taofiq Adebayo, Director of Public Affairs and Enlightenment Department at LASTMA, disclosed that the authority physically apprehended 16,824 vehicles for various traffic infractions in 2024. Out of these, 8,535 were commercial vehicles. In comparison, LASTMA physically apprehended 22,927 vehicles in 2023, including 15,025 commercial vehicles. This indicates a reduction of 6,103 in physically apprehended vehicles and 6,490 in commercial vehicles, demonstrating the positive impact of LASTMA’s enlightenment campaign. Training and enforcement Adebayo said as of December 2024, nearly all of LASTMA’s 4,335 staff members had received training in emotional intelligence, work ethics, and human rights, contributing to improved traffic management and enforcement outcomes. Regarding fines imposed on motorists, Adebayo stated that these were in accordance with the Lagos State Transport Sector Reform Law of 2018, adding that vehicles committing infractions are issued a referral notice for the Lagos State Mobile Court, where substantial evidence such as videos or photographs is presented. “When we apprehend a vehicle that committed an infraction, we issue a referral notice which is taken to the Lagos State Mobile Court. Also, before our officers apprehend such a vehicle, there would have been a substantial evidence gathered in form of video or photograph, and this is tendered at the mobile court. “We don’t impose fines, it is the magistrate that will pronounce the fine to be paid into the government coffers,” he said. What you should know LASTMA has implemented measures to protect the public from being manipulated into paying fines to unauthorized individuals. The agency’s toll-free line plays a critical role in this effort. Additionally, LASTMA has taken disciplinary actions against erring officers, with 26 officers facing dismissal, demotion, or suspension in 2024 for misconduct. TMS is a platform, accessed through a mobile app, which uses technology to help traffic officers manage traffic and process violations. TMS cameras capture traffic violations and incidents in real time allowing LASTMA officers to review video and picture evidence of violations. This allows drivers to legally challenge processed violations. https://nairametrics.com/2025/01/26/lastmas-tms-devices-capture-20000-vehicles-for-traffic-violations-in-2024/ |
