- Today, the world stops to observe the International Day of Zero Tolerance for Female Genital Mutilation. It is a day of heavy numbers and a ticking clock. With only four years left to meet the UN’s Sustainable Development Goal of total elimination by 2030, a landmark report from UNICEF reveals that the mountain we are climbing is taller than we thought. 230 million women and girls alive today are survivors of this practice, that is 30 million more than we estimated just a decade ago.
According to the 2024 UNICEF update, Female Genital Mutilation: A Global Concern, more than 230 million girls and women are living with the consequences of FGM. This 15% increase in reported survivors isn't just about more cutting—it’s about better data and rapid population growth in practicing regions."
As we speak, approximately 4.4 million girls are at risk of being subjected to FGM. To meet the 2030 target, the World Health Organization and UNICEF warn that we must acce...

- Makoko, Lagos' water-bound community, is plagued by malaria. Residents self-diagnose and self-medicate due to a lack of access to quality healthcare and affordability.
Patent medicine sellers and herbal remedies are the norm. Experts warn that this leads to incomplete treatment and drug resistance, worsening outcomes for vulnerable groups like children and pregnant women.
Elizabeth Mehento, a mother of seven, treats malaria monthly without proper testing, relying on self-diagnosis and unregulated remedies. Many in Makoko do the same, swallowing what's familiar, even if unproven.
In Makoko, every fever is assumed to be malaria. Without accessible healthcare, residents fend for themselves, perpetuating a cycle of uncertainty and poor health outcomes.
It’s about to get worse with the current demolitions.

- Nigeria is once again facing painful questions about the safety and quality of healthcare in our country.
Recently, a fast-rising Nigerian artist, Ifunaya Nwagene died after a snake bite, and although the Federal Medical Centre in Abuja has denied negligence and said anti-venom was administered promptly, public concern over emergency care and access to life-saving treatment has grown.
At the same time, world-renowned author Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie has served a legal notice to a private hospital in Lagos, alleging that medical negligence and breaches of duty of care led to the death of her 21-month-old son after routine diagnostic procedures. The Lagos State government has ordered an independent probe into the incident to uncover what happened.

- The Nigerian Federal Government, through the Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu, announced in late January 2026 that prepaid smart meters procured under the World Bank-funded Distribution Sector Recovery Programme (DISREP) must be provided and installed free of charge to electricity consumers across all tariff bands.
This directive bans electricity Distribution Companies (DisCos) and installers from demanding any upfront payments or fees from customers for meter supply or installation, with warnings that violators will face prosecution
Some DisCos have pushed back, arguing that labeling the meters as "free" is misleading since they bear the repayment burden, potentially leading to tariff adjustments.
Experts and operators have expressed divergent views on the feasibility and long-term impact on the power sector...

Does it give Nigerians a credible opposition against the ruling party?
Can Peter Obi nail the ticket in the ADC primaries? What does this mean for Nigeria's politics? On the defections, is Nigeria gradually becoming a one-party state, where opposition becomes redundant?

- The Lagos State Government issues a stern warning to tankers and truck drivers. Following a harrowing accident involving a gas-laden truck at the Apakun Bridge inward Oshodi, the government is threatening a full-scale clampdown on speeding tanker and truck drivers.
The Special Adviser to the Governor on Transportation, Mr Sola Giwa, described the conduct of reckless drivers as "egregiously irresponsible" and a direct threat to the lives of Lagosians.
Preliminary reports indicate that a heavy-duty truck was traveling at a perilous speed when it rammed into a private car
Which impact was devastating.
Two pedestrians were struck, and the driver of the car sustained grave injuries. Because the truck was carrying Compressed Natural Gas (CNG), the area was a ticking time bomb. It took a coordinated effort from LASTMA, the Fire Service, and the Rapid Response Squad to prevent a secondary disaster.

- After nearly a decade in legal limbo, one of Nigeria’s most high-profile corruption sagas has finally reached a London courtroom. Diezani Alison-Madueke, the former Minister of Petroleum Resources and the first female president of OPEC, stands at the center of a landmark bribery trial.
Prosecutors at Southwark Crown Court allege that during her tenure from 2010 to 2015, Mrs. Alison-Madueke traded the keys to Nigeria’s vast oil wealth for a "life of luxury" in the United Kingdom.
The prosecution’s opening statement paints a vivid picture of excess. They allege the 65-year-old accepted over £2 million in benefits from oil executives seeking lucrative government contracts.
Among the specific items listed in the indictment:
* £100,000 in cash.
* The use of chauffeur-driven cars and private jet travel.
* Luxury shopping sprees at Harrods and Louis Vuitton.
* And perhaps most significantly, the payment of staff salaries—includ...

- Billionaire businessman Deji Adeleke, father of Nigerian music star Davido, has publicly addressed the controversies surrounding the paternity of a child identified as Anu.
Speaking to the press for the first time on the matter, Adeleke said he would have gladly accepted the child as his granddaughter, but disclosed that DNA test results showed no biological link.
He stressed that with 14 grandchildren already, adding another would not have posed any burden, insisting the issue was resolved solely by the DNA findings.

- Residents and community leaders in Odokekere, Ikorodu Local Council Area, Lagos State, are raising an alarm over the poor condition of Odokekere Community High School following the collapse of a makeshift classroom.
They have dismissed reports of casualties from the incident, describing such claims as false and misleading, while accusing the state government of long-standing neglect.
When The Guardian visited the school, it was discovered that the collapsed structure was a temporary classroom made of wood and planks, used by Jss 1 students. The structure reportedly fell against the school fence.
Community members explained that the makeshift classrooms were built through self-help after years of waiting for government intervention in the only public secondary school in the area.
Only three sections of the classrooms were constructed with blocks, while others were built with planks to accommodate students.

Kayode, 46, appeared on Monday before the Sagamu Magistrate Court in Ogun State. The case is linked to a road crash that occurred on December 29, 2025, along the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.
Reports say the accident was caused by excessive speed and wrongful overtaking.
The prosecution charged Kayode on four counts, including dangerous driving causing death, reckless and negligent driving, driving without due care and attention, and driving without a valid national driver’s licence. He was earlier granted bail for five million naira, with two sureties.
At Monday’s sitting, the court ordered that the case file be duplicated and sent to the Office of the Attorney General for legal advice.

This new pact officially replaces the controversial 2009 agreement and promises a new era of stability for millions of Nigerian students."
The center of this deal is a significant boost in welfare. The Minister of Education, Dr. Tunji Alausa, announced a 40 percent upward review of emoluments for all academic staff, effective January 1st, 2026. This increase is integrated into a new salary structure comprising the Consolidated University Academic Staff Salary—known as CONUASS—and a newly created Consolidated Academic Tools Allowance (CATA).

- Nigeria has recorded a significant leap in the 2026 Henley Passport Index. For the first time in years, the Green Passport is gaining ground, moving up 14 places from a historic low of 103rd to its new position at 89th in the world."
The January 2026 data shows that Nigerian citizens can now access 44 destinations without a prior visa. This includes a mix of visa-free entry, visas on arrival, and Electronic Travel Authorizations.
While the jump from 103 to 89 is a clear victory for recent diplomatic efforts, it’s a story of 'recovery' rather than total dominance. To give you some perspective, back in 2006, the Nigerian passport ranked 62nd. Today’s ranking of 89th places Nigeria on par with Myanmar, but still trailing behind African leaders like Seychelles at 24th and South Africa at 48th."
What is driving this upward trend? Analysts point to two major factors.
