Lagos, Nigeria. Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has voiced a striking observation, stating that every region in Nigeria has, at some point, considered secession. He emphasized that no ethnic group should be ostracized or punished for secessionist inclinations, including the Igbo people . Obasanjo made these remarks while hosting the League of Northern Democrats , led by former Kano State Governor, Ibrahim Shekarau, at the Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library in Abeokuta, Ogun State, on Tuesday. In his speech, Obasanjo expressed his dismay at the ongoing marginalization of the Igbo ethnic group, particularly the notion that an Igbo person cannot become president of Nigeria due to the Biafran secession attempt. He firmly rejected this view, stating, “It bleeds my heart when people say because the Igbos had carried out secession, an Igbo man cannot be the president of Nigeria. I say what nonsense? There is no section of Nigeria that has not planned secession.” The former president...

Eket Province, Nigeria-Biafraland. The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) has confirmed ongoing power outages in the North East , North West, and parts of the North Central regions, attributing the disruptions to line tripping on major transmission routes. The outage, which began on Monday, has left several states without power, while TCN’s attempts to locate and fix the fault have been hampered by challenging terrain, insecurity, and the ongoing sit-at-home protests in Eastern Region. In a statement released on Tuesday morning, Ndidi Mbah, TCN’s General Manager of Public Affairs, apologized to the government and electricity consumers in the affected areas. Mbah explained that patrol teams tasked with fault tracing had faced difficulties due to both natural obstacles and the sit-at-home order observed in the South East on October 21st and 22nd, which impacted operational logistics, including refueling patrol vehicles. The power outage was triggered by a fault on the 330kV Ugwaji–Ap...
