The United States (US) Department and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) have revealed when they will release Nigeria’s President, Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s criminal and immigration records to the public. In a court document sighted by journalists, the FBI and US State Department cited ‘unusual circumstances’ for the inability to release the records to the public.

A retired inspector General of Police, AIG, Hakeem Odumosu had described the news making round in some media space that he was appointed by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu as the substantive Economic and Financial Crime Commission as the new chairman as fake news. Some section of media yesterday had reported that the retired police officer has been penciled to head the antigraft agency pending the confirmation of the National Assembly.

The Nigerian Labour Congress, NLC, and the Trade Union Congress, TUC, have suspended the planned nationwide strike that was slated for Wednesday, 7th, June, 2023 over the removal of subsidy by President Tinubu. This followed the outcome of the meeting between the labour leaders and the Federal Government after a long day of negotiation yesterday. Chief of Staff to the President, Femi Gbajabiamila, disclosed this to the newsmen, saying that the agreement reached was for the NLC and TUC to form a committee that would propose a wage increase instead as well as establish a timeline for its implementation.

Following the subsidy removal by the Federal Government, the Nigerian Labour Congress, NLC, has today declared a nationwide strike commencing from Wednesday next week. The union made this known during its National Executive Council, NEC meeting held in Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory, FCT today. The NLC NEC meeting is a fallout of the subsidy removal by the new administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinibu and was followed by a price hike by petroleum marketers that resulted in up to a 200% increase in the pump price across the country.

The leadership of the Nigerian Labour Congress, NLC, and the representative of the Federal Government have today scheduled to meet on the plan for petroleum subsidy removal. NLC national president, Joe Ajaero, made this known today while speaking on a Channel TV program, Sunrise Daily today. Ajaero revealed that the meeting has been scheduled for 2:00 pm today. According to him, “Government seems to have shown interest in the discussion. As of last night, they reached out and we have fixed 2 pm today to commence discussions,”

President Muhammadu Buhari in the company of his Vice president Prof. Yemi was today joined by Service Chiefs in the country to commemorate the Armed forces Remembrance day in a colorful way. The Annual celebration is part of the Nigerian armed ritual that is been undertaken every 15th of January where armed forces converge in every state of the federation to remember their fallen heroes and lay wreaths in commemoration of those who paid the ultimate sacrifice.
