- A man in Rivers State finally regained his freedom after spending 8 years, 4 months, and 10 days in prison without trial.
He had been held in custody since March 6, 2017, awaiting trial. No hearing. No conviction. Just years of uncertainty behind bars.
His release is a powerful reminder of the urgent need for justice reform. No one should be forgotten in the system this way.

- Authorities in Lagos State have introduced stricter measures to tackle the city’s deepening waste crisis, warning that violators of sanitation laws will face fines of ₦250,000 or up to three months' imprisonment.

Offenders who flout environmental laws, whether by dumping refuse illegally, littering streets, or defacing public space, will face hefty penalties of up to ₦250,000 or 3 months imprisonment.
Over 3,000 environmental offenders have been arrested, as the government intensifies both surveillance and public advocacy. Existing bans on cart pushing, public defecation, and illegal street trading remain in full force.

He said, “It’s not about just reservations. It’s about how the country will go well. My personal vision is to see a nation that works in my lifetime, and those things I’ve discussed with Mr President, they’re not hidden things, but I’ve learned that when you discuss with the person in charge, you leave it with him to do whatsoever he wills with what you have suggested.
“So I’ve had a private conversation with Mr President and I’m glad that he received me well and I trust that God will help our nation.”
“We have danced around some subjects for too long a time; it’s time to take concrete action to ensure that the mercies of our country do not live in abject poverty, that’s all,” he said.

Eyewitnesses report that during the high-profile ceremony—attended by top government officials, dignitaries, and members of the press—President Tinubu walked past Governor Sanwo-Olu without any acknowledgment, handshake, or verbal exchange, despite the governor standing in clear view and extending a gesture of greeting.
While the Presidency and the Lagos State Government have yet to issue official statements, the public snub has raised questions about internal tensions within the ruling APC and what it could mean for Lagos State’s political dynamics moving forward.

Speaking at a press briefing on Friday, the agency’s Director-General, Professor Mojisola Adeyeye, dismissed speculations that the sanctions levied against defaulters at the Onitsha, Aba, and Idumota drug markets were arbitrary.

The first, an investigative fee of ₦5 million, was applied to traders found selling unregistered pharmaceutical products.

- Description
- A one-eyed bus conductor was assaulted by some ‘Agberos’ in Oshodi, Lagos, right in front of police officers clearing the road for President Tinubu’s convoy.
He reportedly spent over ₦2,000 during the altercation with the NURTW members.
Despite Lagos State Ministry of Transportation’s fee harmonisation policy in 2022, assaults on bus drivers and conductors by Agberos persist, causing some to have lost their teeth or sustained one form of injury or the other.
