AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Agriculture Support: One Acre Fund Nigeria has kicked off its 2026 input delivery for 88,000 smallholder farmers in Nasarawa, Niger, Kwara and Plateau, with fertiliser, seeds and protective gear tied to a credit-and-training plan to boost rainy-season yields. Justice & Rights: A Minna court heard a defendant claim he lost both eyes after alleged torture by Niger State SCID operatives while in custody, as a homicide case drags on. Political Shake-up: APC primaries in Niger State saw major losses, including the deputy speaker and 15 others, while the party also affirmed Gov. Umaru Bago unopposed for 2027. Security Shock: In Minna, the deputy governor’s aide Jafar Abdullahi Dabawu was stabbed to death in his home opposite a police station, with police investigations underway. Migration: Nigeria’s Immigration Service says 1,100 returnees from Agadez arrived in Kano by road for processing and reintegration. Health & Economy: EU-backed efforts to curb disinformation in Nigeria’s North-West and ASUU’s warning of another university crisis if a 2025 agreement isn’t fully implemented both dominated the week’s policy talk.
