Two days before the inauguration of the new government in the Republic of Niger, a military coup took place on Tuesday night. Reports say that gunfire erupted at the Presidential Palace around 3:00 am, last night. However, the AFP news agency reported that the measure had been blocked.  Today the city of Niamey is on a day-to-day basis.  So far no details have been released on the purpose of the new coup attempt, concerning those involved.  Niger has a long history of coups d'état from the military to the present day. Many leaders, including Saleh Kumchey, Baare Mainasara and Mammadou Tandja, have staged military coups.  Following the February 28 Presidential Election in the country, which was won by Bazoum Mohammed, many expect that this is the time to hand over power from one civilian government to another for the first time in the country.

The Nigerian Governors Forum (NGF) has described the militant attack on the Benue State governor as "shocking" and "scary".  Governor Samuel Ortom's delegation was attacked by gunmen on Saturday on the Makurdi-Gboko road, when he visited his farm.  In a statement issued by the group's chairman and Ekiti State Governor Kayode Fayemi on Sunday, the NGF congratulated Ortom for the escape from the attack which it said was "scary and offensive".  Inspector General of Police Mohammed Adamu also condemned the attack and ordered that security be beefed up on the governor and an investigation launched.  "The NGF has said in a loud voice that efforts to rehabilitate Benue State will not succeed," the statement said.  "One of the relatives of a former governor of the state was recently killed. This kind of act of violence must be stopped for whatever reason to kill the people of Benue."

Kaduna State Governor Malam Nasir El-Tufa'i has said he would never compromise with the gunmen who kidnapped 39 students in Kaduna State. He said, "how can you take money and give it to a terrorist who will use it to buy weapons that will also be used against you". Last week, 39 students were abducted by terrorists and demanded a ransom of 500 million naira from Kaduna State Government. The governor had said last month that he would never reconcile with any armed robber for ransom. The northern Nigerian state of Kaduna has been rocked by a spate of kidnappings in recent weeks, with two weeks ago raiding an airport staff area in Kaduna abducting 11 people and their whereabouts are still unknown.

The Ogun state Police Command has arrested a 43-year-old housewife and mother of five, Bisola Awodele, for allegedly pouring hot water on her husband, Peter Philips over accusation of being drunkard and abandoning his responsibility. According to the police, the suspect had given birth to a baby about eight months ago, but she killed and secretly buried the baby out of frustration. It was gathered that the suspect was arrested following a report by the husband at the Ota Divisional Police Headquarters, Ogun State. The victim reportedly ran into the police station with burns all over his body and reported that there was a fight between him and his wife who accused him of always being drunk and in the process the wife picked up a pot of hot water and poured it on him. Ogun state police spokesman, Abimbola Oyeyemi, who confirmed the incident on Sunday in Abeokuta said following receipt of the report,  the area commander, ACP Muhideen Obe, directed the operatives to effect the

In this time, it is very difficult to identify fake news instantly without strong research. People spread baseless information in an attempt to achieve a bad goal. A recent example is about the origin of the Covid-19 and the 5G network. Some people also use the names of prominent media companies to launch their fake websites or Facebook pages. You will see the names of newspapers you know but carry different logo and sometimes the names are written in an awkward way. To identify a fake page on Social Media like Facebook and tweeter, always consider the contents and language used. Sometimes if the account is fake you will find the contents are not organized, no links and are full of grammatical errors. Note, make sure you look for a blue verification tick which shows that the account is authentic like that of the BBC. Examine a story before you believe it, not every story is true

Abike Dabiri-Erewa, chairman of the National Agency for Nigerians Abroad (NIDCOM), commended the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) for introducing the program. In a statement signed by NIDCOM public relations officer Abdur-Rahman Balogun, Dabiri-Erewa said the initiative was a welcome development as it would encourage visitors to send money through official methods. The CBN, meanwhile, said the scheme was an incentive for foreign exchange brokers where remittance seekers would have to pay N5 per dollar imported. Dabirewa said the policy, if implemented properly, would have an impact on the Nigerian economy. She said the office of Nigerians Abroad was currently setting up a special fund so that Nigerians living abroad could plan and present their investments, as well as other financial matters.  The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has said that the new policy is expected to attract foreign investment by investing in the right amount of money and will greatly boost the Nigerian eco

Africa is a continent with rich history and culture. Many europeans tried to put eyes on the continent, visited for either exploration or trade, which at the time was a kind of slavery before later reverting to the trade of essential commodities such as peanuts, cotton, animal skins and the like. The arrival of Arabs in some African provinces of the time, including the so-called "Sudan" region, which included Sudan, Nigeria, Chad, and parts of the Republic of Niger, led to the spread of Islam and the culture of the East. Later, the arrival of the Europeans brought Christianity, Western education and other Western-style policies. Africa is slowly evolving to different levels; from the darkness of the head to the dawn of today. Religious and modern education have taken root in African countries, but women are still lagging behind in this journey. You will often find women in rural areas and even some African cities in

Have you ever heard of the Seven Wonders of the World? If you have never been to one today, we would like to begin by bringing you some information about them, starting with the Pyramid of Giza in Egypt. The pyramid you see in the pictures above is amazing; It was built thousands of years ago, around 2580 - 2560 BC. History has it that it was built by an Egyptian prince named Pharaoh Khufus, as the tomb of the great Egyptian emperors known as Pharaohs, and even the richest of the time. Its height is 146.7 meters which is 481 feet. The  Giza  Pyramid as it is known, is 230.34 meters or 455 feet wide. A brick of large stones the size of a mercedece-benz, was used in building it, with help of million slaves sent from far and wide to the place where it was built. History has shown that it took 20 years to build this pyramid and it is currently 3,800 years old. The site is designated by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site and as one of the Seven Wonders of t

The Zamfara state government has taken a stand against President Muhammadu Buhari's order to ban all flights across the state. State legislators voted against the move, describing it as action speaks louder than words. One of the law makers in the state who came up with the bill, Faruku Dosara, slammed the federal government and retaliated against President Buhari's security adviser, retired Major General Babagana Munguno, for his alleged negligence in the issues concerning security and prosecuting suspects involved in the case. About 300 Jangebe Science Secondary School students were recently abducted and held captive by gunmen for several days before being released, which experts say a ransom must be paid before a deal can be reached. Faruku Dosara said, "It is not only Zamfara State that has the issue of kidnapping in Nigeria, there are Dabchi, Kangara, Chibok and Kagara in Niger State. Why is Zamfara different? We are not exceptional". In a

Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari has assured Nigerians that abduction of 300 female students from Government Girls Science Secondary School, Jangebe, Zamfara State, would be the last to happen in the country. Minister of Aviation, Senator Hadi Sirika, conveyed Buhari’s declaration when he led a high-powered federal government delegation to sympathise with the people and government of Zamfara State.
