‎A major stakeholder of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Nsukka (Enugu North) senatorial district and former Commissioner for Housing in the State, Peter Okonkwo has alleged that the party is being attacked because it insists President Bola Tinubu must run for a second term.

‎Okonkwo disclosed this over the weekend during a reception rally for defectors at St. Charles Catholic Church field, Opi, Nsukka.

‎He claimed that sponsored thugs had destroyed canopies and plastic seats in an attempt to forestall the reception rally.

‎The alleged attack, it was gathered, almost marred the rally attended by the Minister of Innovation, Science and Technology, Uche Nnaji, the state party chairman, Ugochukwu Agballah; three members of the House of Representatives: Sunday Umeha (Udi/Ezeagu), Chimaobi Atu (Enugu North/Enugu South), Paul Nnamchi (Enugu East/Isiguzo); among others.

‎Okonkwo claimed that the venue was attacked three times with sporadic shooting in the air, while the people remained resilient.He said,

‎ “Honourable Minister, let me officially tell you that they attacked this gathering here three times today. They came the first time, they attacked us; we were so resilient, we regrouped again and came back. They attacked us again, we were so resilient, and we are here again. They destroyed properties worth millions in this attack, they assaulted people, they wounded people, they were shooting double-barreled guns against our people”

‎“The poster of the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria was torn to pieces, defaced and destroyed. They are attacking us with militia because we insisted that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu must do his second term. Let me send a loud message clearly: they should be prepared to attack us more.”

“The more they attack us, the more we go for President Ahmed Tinubu; the more they shoot at us with double-barreled guns, the more we go for Bola Ahmed Tinubu. After three consecutive attacks and this teeming population here, these masses, these women still came back to this arena to support the second tenure of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu”

NIGERIA POLICE FORCE ANNOUNCES RESUMPTION OF ENFORCEMENT OF TINTED GLASS PERMIT

Published

on

 

The Nigeria Police Force wishes to inform the general public of the planned resumption of the enforcement of Tinted Glass Permit policy pending the final determination of the matter currently before the court. This decision follows a careful review of emerging security concerns and the need to ensure the safety of all citizens.

It is important to clarify that at no point did the court restrain the Nigeria Police Force from enforcing the provisions of the law regarding the use of tinted glass on vehicles. Nonetheless, in the spirit of responsibility, transparency, and public convenience, the Force suspended enforcement to allow motorists ample opportunity to regularise their documentation and complete the registration process without pressure.

Recent trends, however, reveal a disturbing rise in criminal activities perpetrated with the aid of vehicles fitted with unauthorised tinted glass. Some individuals and organised criminal groups have exploited this gap to conceal their identities and facilitate crimes ranging from armed robbery to kidnapping and other violent crimes. In view of this, the Nigeria Police Force has found it both necessary and urgent to resume full enforcement as a proactive measure to safeguard our communities. Consequently, enforcement of Tinted Glass Permit will resume on 2nd January, 2026.

The Inspector-General of Police, IGP Kayode Adeolu Egbetokun, PhD, NPM, assures the public that the renewed enforcement will be carried out with utmost professionalism, respect for the rights of citizens, and in accordance with extant laws. He adds that the Force remains committed to promoting public safety and upholding the rule of law while working collaboratively with all stakeholders to keep Nigeria secure.

Meanwhile, motorists who require the Tinted Glass Permit are encouraged to apply through the approved channels and ensure that their vehicles comply with legal procedures.

Following a recent post by the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Ambassador Bianca Ojukwu, on her official Instagram account on Monday, 15th December, 2025, the minister shared a noteworthy moment from the ECOWAS 95th Session of the Council of Ministers held in South Africa.

In the post, Ambassador Ojukwu revealed that her daughter, Chi, who works with UN Tourism, accompanied her to the high-level regional meeting to gain firsthand insight into the demands of diplomatic service. According to the minister, the experience offered her daughter a clearer understanding of the intensity and dedication required in her role as Nigeria’s Minister of Foreign Affairs.

She explained that the council’s deliberations often stretched late into the night, sometimes well past midnight, with long hours spent in the conference hall and sustained by endless cups of tea. The demanding schedule, she noted, was far more intense than her daughter had anticipated

The post has since drawn reactions from followers, many of whom praised Ambassador Ojukwu for mentoring the next generation through exposure to international diplomacy and commended her commitment to regional cooperation and public service within ECOWAS.
