United States of America President Donald Trump has intensified his criticism of Nigeria’s handling of insecurity, describing the country as “a disgrace” during an interview on Fox News Radio’s The Brian Kilmeade Show on Friday.

The Akwa Ibom State Police Command has dismissed a viral message circulating on social media alleging the influx of Boko Haram fighters into parts of Southern and North-Central Nigeria, including Lagos, Ilorin, and Rivers State.
The false alert also claimed that key holders embedded with tracking devices were being distributed in public places.
Governor Douye Diri of Bayelsa State has been praised for his commitment to human capital development and infrastructural growth in the state.
The Paramount Ruler of Ogboinbiri Community in Southern Ijaw Local Government Area, His Royal Highness Okosughe Benson Eseimokumo, Ogboin XII, gave the commendation during an interaction with journalists in Yenagoa at the weekend.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) views with serious displeasure the insinuations contained in a news story published by Sahara Reporters titled: “DSS Abducts Lawyer Moses Oddiri in Lagos after Petition on Diversion of Funds by EFCC Chairman.”
According to a statement on Friday, 21 November 2025, signed by Head, Media and Publicity, EFCC, Dele Oyewale, the story, contrived to portray the arrest of Oddiri “on the orders and petition of the EFCC chairman over alleged diversion of funds intended for a community that Moses has been advocating for over the years,” is a falsehood taken too far.

The organisers of Bayelsa Spelling Bee says their core mission is to create a platform for young people to excel, educationally and otherwise.
The organisers said this as winners emerged from the 12th edition of the competition on Thursday.

The National Orientation Agency (NOA) has condemned the abduction of 25 students of Government Girls Comprehensive Secondary School, Kebbi State, as well as the violent attack and kidnapping of Christian worshippers in Eruku, Kwara State.
In a statement issued on Thursday by the agency’s Deputy Director of Communication and Media, Paul Odenyi, NOA Director General, Mallam Lanre Issa-Onilu, described both incidents as unacceptable assaults on citizens’ rights and national cohesion.
Sowore Omoyele, the publisher of Sahara Reporters, has begun re-enacting the same old lies he told more than two years ago — that Senator Ned Nwoko grabbed land in Idumuje-Ugboko and caused the murder of some persons.
As someone who has followed the trauma suffered by the 29 victims of the 2017 Idumuje-Ugboko mayhem, allegedly orchestrated by Prince Chukwunonso Nwoko, the current state-installed Obi of Idumuje-Ugboko, I am in a good position to correct this malicious falsehood against an illustrious son of the community.
In 2015, Prince Ned Nwoko, now a Senator, applied for a 90-hectare piece of land to establish a Sports University in Idumuje-Ugboko. The then Obi of the community, HRM Albert Nwoko, consulted members of the land allocation committee. After a series of verifications and consultations with stakeholders from the four federating villages, the land was duly approved by the late Obi and allocated to Linas International Limited, a company owned by Ned Nwoko.
