The naira plunged by 31 per cent to 288.85 against the United States dollar on Monday at the close of trading at the newly established interbank market. The local currency also depreciated at the parallel market where it closed at 346 to the greenback, down from around 330 and 335 on Friday.

The CBN said it cleared a total foreign exchange demand backlog of $4bn with a dollar exchanging for N280 at the foreign exchange market. The apex bank, in a statement issued on Monday by the Acting Director, Corporate Commun...

Supporters of the Ahmed Makarfi-led National Caretaker Committee and their counterparts from the Ali Modu Sheriff’s group on Thursday clashed at the party headquarters. Trouble began when the supporters of Sheriff, who was sacked as the party’s national chairman in Port Harcourt three weeks ago, attempted to dislodge the pro-Makarfi protesters from the main gate of the Wadata Plaza national secretariat of the PDP. The governors on the platform of the main opposition party and other stakeholders had converged on Port Harcourt on May 21 for the PDP national convention, where a caretaker committee, headed by Makarfi, a former governor of Kaduna State, was constituted. But the Sheriff faction had described the caretaker committee as illegal, saying it had no place in the PDP constitution. It also claimed that a court had ordered that the national convention, which gave birth to the caretaker committee, should not hold in the first instance. A protester believed to be a member of the ...

The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mr. Yakubu Dogara, on Thursday, directed the investigation of three members of the House for an alleged sex scandal. The Chairman, House Committee on Media and Public Affairs, Mr. Abdulrazak Namdas, confirmed this in Abuja just as investigations had shown that the United States Embassy had cancelled the visas of the affected members. Namdas explained that the leadership of the House decided to investigate the alleged sex scandal following a formal complaint made by the US Ambassador to Nigeria, Mr. James Entwistle. He said, “We are in receipt of a letter from the US Ambassador, alleging misconduct by some members of the National Assembly, who attended training in the United States of America. “The leadership of the House has commenced its own part of the investigation. When it is concluded, we will brief Nigerians further on this issue.” Namdas, however, declined questions on how the investigation would be conducted. “When we say we w...

Chelsea’s ownership of the copyright to Jose Mourinho’s name is delaying his appointment as manager of Manchester United, according to Sky sources. Mourinho is understood to have agreed personal terms to succeed the sacked Louis van Gaal at the Old Trafford, and his agent Jorge Mendes has all-but finalised the deal in London with Manchester United’s executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward as of the time of reporting. The pair met for face-to-face talks to resolve complications over image rights, and one of these is believed to be Chelsea’s ownership of the trademark to ‘Jose Mourinho’, despite Chelsea sacking him last December.   According to the Intellectual Property Office, Chelsea own the rights to Mourinho’s name being used on a string of merchandise including glassware, teddy bears and face masks. A number of these items, including a large ‘Jose’ poster, are still on sale on the Chelsea megastore website. The bill for this trademark to be lifted or transferred could reach hun...

The Nigeria Labour Congress led by Mr. Ayuba Wabba and the Federal Government will resume the suspended talks on the N145 fuel pump price on Wednesday (today). The Director in charge of Press at the Ministry of Labour and Employment, Mr. Samuel Olowookere, said in a statement on Tuesday that the meeting would hold by 2pm at the Conference Hall of Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation.   An invitation to the NLC to return to the negotiation table over the contentious increase in electricity tariff and the fuel pump price was delayed on Monday by the Ministry of Labour as a result of a scheduled meeting with the Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria, which served a week-old strike notice on the government.  The NLC had called off the indefinite strike it called to protest fuel price hike on Sunday as a result of the intervention of the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola TInubu. While the strike was on...

Justice Mukhtar Abimbola of the Oyo State High Court has ordered the commencement of the trial of Mrs. Yewande Oyediran, who was alleged to have stabbed her husband, Lowo Oyediran, to death on February 2, 2016. The judge said this after overruling the preliminary objection to the charges preferred against the accused, filed by her counsel, Bioye Ashanike.   In the application, Ashanike prayed that the court should strike out the charges since they were instituted by the Oyo State Department of Public Prosecution and not the state Attorney General. The application also raised the issue of court jurisdiction. The accused person was alleged to have killed her France-based husband in their Akobo home in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital, after an argument that spanned over the night. After revisiting the application by the accused person, the judge dismissed the objection, ruling that the case should commence on June 23 and June 27, 2016. The founder of the Women Arise for Change I...

The Federal Government on Tuesday said the pest, Tuta absoluta, popularly known as ‘Tomato Ebola’, which is responsible for the massive destruction of tomato in farmlands, had invaded six states in Nigeria. It also disclosed that Nigeria spent about N80bn ($400m) annually importing tomato paste, adding that many of the imported products were substandard.   The Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development, Mr. Audu Ogbeh, who said this during a press briefing in Abuja, stated that the report that tomato processing factories had mopped-up tomato fruits in Nigeria was unfounded and untrue. According to him, the highly reproductive nature of the tomato pest coupled with the favourable environment and lack of management knowledge for containment resulted in its spread like a wild fire without any challenge. This development had led to the destruction of tomato fruits in Jigawa, Kano, Katsina, Kaduna, Plateau and Lagos. Ogbeh, however, stated that the Federal Government had started...

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has transferred a former Minister of Aviation, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, to its Lagos office.   The EFCC also obtained a fresh remand order from a Lagos Magistrate’s Court to hold the ex-minister for another 21 days. Fani-Kayode, who was the spokesman for the Goodluck Jonathan Campaign Organisation was arrested on May 9, 2016 for allegedly receiving N840m during the build-up to the 2015 presidential election. According to the EFCC, the money which Fani-Kayode admitted to receiving, emanated from the account of the Central Bank of Nigeria. The anti-graft agency also froze Fani-Kayode’s bank account and seized his passport in the course of its investigations. In Lagos, a Chief Magistrate, Mrs. Bola Osunsanmi, on Monday ordered the further remand of Fani-Kayode for additional three weeks in the custody of the EFCC. The remand order was pursuant to an application by the EFCC on Monday, praying the magistrate for an order to keep Fani-Kay...

"When I woke up I didn't know that I was in China." Lan remembers the night that changed her whole life. While preparing for university along the border in northern Vietnam, a friend she met online asked her to a group dinner. When she was tired and wanted to go home, the people asked her to stay and talk and have a drink. Next thing she knew, she had been smuggled across the border to China. "At that time, I wanted to leave," says Lan. "There were other girls there in the car but there was people to guard us." The villages along the Vietnamese-Chinese border are a hunting ground for human traffickers. Girls as young as 13 say they are tricked or drugged, then spirited across the porous border by boat, motorbike or car. Young Vietnamese women are valuable commodities in China, where the one-child policy and long-standing preference for sons has heavily skewed the gender ratio. To put it simply, Chinese men are hungry for brides. ...
