Nigeria moves closer to eliminating trachoma as only 11 LGAs remain- official

Nigeria has made significant progress toward eliminating trachoma, a major cause of infectious blindness, with only 11 of its 134 previously endemic local government areas (LGAs) still needing to meet elimination criteria.

Officials emphasized the importance of environmental sanitation and ongoing surveillance to prevent resurgence. However, challenges such as insecurity in regions like Borno State hinder efforts to fully eliminate the disease in the remaining LGAs.

Nigerian gov’t launches e-cooking initiative to accelerate clean energy transition

The Nigerian federal government has launched an initiative to integrate electric cooking (e-cooking) into its Clean Cooking Policy Implementation Plan, aiming to expand access to clean energy, reduce emissions, and support climate goals. The initiative was introduced during a workshop organized by the Federal Ministry of Environment in collaboration with international partners. Officials emphasized that e-cooking, powered by grid, mini-grid, solar, and renewable energy systems, offers environmental, economic, and health benefits by replacing traditional biomass fuels like firewood and charcoal. The move aligns with Nigeria’s broader energy transition plan and its Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) under the Paris Agreement, seeking to reduce emissions in the residential energy sector.

Motorist says police freed him after he mentioned VDM’s name

A motorist named Livinus Nwosu claims that Nigerian police in Benin, Edo State, released him after he mentioned the name of social media personality Martins Vincent Otse, known as VeryDarkMan (VDM). Nwosu shared the incident in a Facebook video, stating that police initially detained him for allegedly violating tinted glass permit regulations but later let him go after he disclosed his connection to VDM. The police spokesperson, Eno Ikoedem, did not respond to attempts to confirm the claim. Nwosu presented his vehicle documents and tinted permit, arguing that the police's actions were unjustified and possibly motivated by extortion. His account highlights ongoing controversy around the police force's enforcement of tinted glass permit policies, which some critics argue amount to financial exploitation.
