Good morning, this is The Report, and I’m Abigail Iyade.
Here are today’s top briefings shaping Nigeria’s national conversation.
TINUBU SETS UP HIGH‑LEVEL COMMITTEE OVER ₦4 TRILLION CONTRACTOR DEBT
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has established a special committee to address the Federal Government’s ₦4 trillion debt owed to more than 2,000 contractors.
The President was reportedly displeased after receiving a detailed briefing from the Bureau of Public Procurement.
The committee is expected to verify claims and recommend immediate payment pathways to ease pressure on the construction and infrastructure sectors.
TINUBU ORDERS WITHDRAWAL OF POLICE ESCORTS FROM MINISTERS AND TOP OFFICIALS
In a major security restructuring, President Tinubu has directed the withdrawal of police escorts from ministers and senior government officials.
The move aims to redeploy officers back to core policing duties across the country, strengthening public safety and reducing VIP‑focused deployments.
NIGERIA CONFIRMS ROLE IN FOILING COUP ATTEMPT IN BENIN REPUBLIC
The Federal Government has confirmed that Nigeria’s military played a decisive role in preventing a coup attempt in the Benin Republic.
President Tinubu praised the armed forces for what he called a “swift and gallant response” in defending democratic stability in the region.
NERC, EXPERTS CLASH OVER RISING DISCO REVENUE AMID BLACKOUTS
Despite persistent nationwide blackouts, electricity distribution companies reportedly generated ₦1.7 trillion in revenue.
This has sparked a clash between industry experts and the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission over tariff fairness, transparency, and the sustainability of the current billing structure.
PDP CRISIS DEEPENS AS WIKE’S CAMP PUSHES FOR FRESH CONGRESSES
The internal crisis within the People’s Democratic Party has intensified.
The faction loyal to Nyesom Wike is now pushing for fresh congresses across several states and a new national convention.
Political analysts say this move could significantly reshape the party’s internal power dynamics heading into 2026.
That’s all for now on The Report.
