Cholera Response: The EU approved €1.5m emergency aid for Nigeria’s cholera fight, including more intervention teams, cholera kits, water and sanitation support, and stronger surveillance. Drug War: NDLEA destroyed illicit drugs worth about ₦301bn in Lagos, including cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine and cannabis, in a court-ordered exercise. Inflation Watch: Nigeria’s headline inflation eased again to 15.43% in July, down from 15.91% in June, with food inflation still rising. Justice for Women: FG deployed a standardised justice-sector platform to track violence against women cases from reporting to resolution, aiming to close data and accountability gaps. Security & Crime Control: Customs handed over 399 seized firearms to the small arms control centre in Lagos, after arrests linked to the consignment. Local Politics: Edo Assembly leadership remains in turmoil as Speaker Blessing Agbebaku resigned, reviving questions about the legislature’s long-running instability. Elections & Democracy: Bauchi LG polls saw low turnout as voters stayed away; meanwhile, Osun election reactions continue, with opposition and civil society groups trading claims about what the result means for 2027. Tech & Skills: FG and Meta launched an AI Academy to train Nigerians for generative AI and startup opportunities, with no-cost courses and pitch support. Education: Lagos State Scholarship Board announced CBT rules and warned applicants against fraudsters demanding money. Agriculture & Food Security: India’s culture minister met Nigeria’s agriculture minister to discuss farmer welfare and food security, including marketing systems. Armed Violence in the North-West: Lakurawa fighters reportedly killed two people and led Friday prayers in a Sokoto mosque before looting shops and POS outlets.
