Justice Maryanne Anenih fixed the dates following an agreement between counsel to the EFCC, ROTIMI OYEDEPO (SAN), and counsel to EMEFIELE, OLALEKAN OJO(SAN).

The army,  in a statement issued yesterday, January 26, 2026, by the Director of Defence Information, Major General Samaila Uba, noted that the arraignment follows the conclusion of  its investigation into sixteen military officers arrested in October 2025, adding that the investigation report has been forwarded to the appropriate authorities in line with existing military regulations.

President Bola Tinubu yesterday arrived in Ankara, Türkiye, for a state visit aimed at strengthening bilateral relations between both countries.

BABA-AHMED, during an interview with newsmen, said that both political figures have a responsibility to allow Nigerians to choose from a new generation of leaders, stressing that their decision to step aside would give the country a better range of options.

The minister confirmed that the circular had since been released, stressing that President TINUBU would not approve or sign any agreement without the intention and commitment to fully implement it.

PIGOTT added that immigrant visa processing from the 75 affected countries would be paused while the State Department review immigration procedures to prevent the entry of foreign nationals who might rely on welfare and public benefits.

NAFDAC’s Director-General, MOJISOLA ADEYEYE, gave the assurance in a statement issued yesterday, noting that the products available in Nigeria were not affected by Nestlé United Kingdom’s recent voluntary recall of specific batches of SMA Infant Formula and Follow-On Formula in more than 50 countries.

The PDP chieftain cautioned party members against being deceived, confused or misled by rumours, insisting that there was no truth in the speculation surrounding his alleged defection.

Recall that President TINUBU departed Nigeria on December 28 for what the Presidency described as an end-of-year break in Europe, and he was last week, seen in France where he held talks with Rwanda’s President, PAUL KAGAME.
