NRS Reassures Stakeholders: National Single Window Not Taking Over MDAs’ Roles The Executive Chairman of the Nigeria Revenue Service (NRS), Zacch Adedeji PhD, has assured stakeholders that the National Single Window (NSW) platform is not designed to replace any Ministry, Department or Agency (MDA), but to enhance collaboration and efficiency. Speaking at a press conference held on 24th March 2026 at the NSW Support Centre in Lagos, Adedeji described the NSW as a unified digital platform that integrates processes across agencies, eliminates duplication, and promotes smarter, faster, and more transparent trade operations. He emphasized: “The National Single Window is not taking any MDA’s job. It is simply creating a coordinated system where agencies can work smarter, faster, and more transparently.”

I just heard that Enugu and Anambra are leading in the application for the South East Capital Funding for startups and businesses, which the South East Development Commission (SEDC) is organizing. Ebonyi state has the least application, followed by Imo and Abia. Everyone who owns a business in the South East should jump on this. We are talking of N70 billion to fund startups owned by umu Igbo!

The Minister of Works, Engr.

Section 1 alone covers 125.35km with a contract sum of about ₦454 billion, out of which 30% has already been paid, and will commence as a three-lane carriageway.

That's the truth. How can London-designed cooling work for our yams? We need systems built for our heat and soil. Africa must build for Africa.

The National Council for Higher Education (NCHE) has rolled out new standards to guide the implementation of the Competence-Based Education & Training (CBET) across institutions of higher learning, marking a significant shift in Uganda’s education sector. One of the key requirements under the new framework is that formative assessment must account for at least 50% of a student’s overall evaluation. That formative assessment includes courseworks, tests, practical exercises and project work, all which are critical in equipping learners with hands-on skills. #GCICMediaReview #OpenGovUg

@VillageParrot Stranded because we stand alone. If Suleja people fight together, dem no fit arrest everybody. Top 10% or bottom 90%, oppression no dey choose class. Na we be our problem.

Actually, if you’re from the top 10%, I don’t see the reason for you to agitate for anything, unless you’re supporting the main people affected. The people who are affected should put on a fight first because, guess what? If you fight for them, you’ll be stranded.

@General_Somto Security forces dey sleep on duty? Why collect taxpayers money if you cannot protect our people? Gross failure!

@VillageParrot We are our own problem, yes, but you dey call intimidated citizens 'clowns'? That kain talk go divide us. Make we face the oppressor, no be the community.

Are you a clown? No, really, are you a clown? How do you think the police operate? Why do you think the Governor got that bold? Nigerians lack solidarity and that’s why we are here. If the entire city stood behind him, the Governor wouldn’t do that.

@GCICUganda @GCICMediaReview @GouInfrastruct @gou_economy @MEMD_Uganda @NankabirwaRS @UNOC_UG Smart move by Uganda. Meanwhile Iran's Hormuz closure spikes our petrol prices while UAE builds our $18.5bn Centenary City under missile fire. Real partners stand the test.

Uganda’s fuel supplies remain stable despite the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, Energy Minister Hon. Ruth Nankabirwa has said. The Minister assured the country that as far as fuel products are concerned, Uganda’s current diesel stocks can sustain the country for 21 days, while for petrol it is 26 days. For Jet A1 fuel, the country has a stock that can sustain the country for 38 days. #GCICMediaReview #OpenGovUg

What stupid prayers have you been yapping about? Your foolish pastors are dining with politicians. Some are even laundering money for them.

HELLO! The Abia State Government, under Governor Alex Otti, has partnered with CSS Global Integrated Farms (a leading agribusiness firm based in Nasarawa State) to establish a large-scale, mechanised, and integrated commercial farm in Abia. This initiative seeks to shift agriculture from subsistence to modern, high-efficiency production of crops, livestock, and value-added processing, thereby boosting food security, reducing import dependence, and driving rural economic growth, particularly in areas like Bende LGA. Key elements include the 2024 sponsorship and training of about 300 young Abians (with 298 completing the programme) at CSS Farms, followed by interest-free loans to help them establish enterprises; official visits and site assessments by CSS delegations (including consultants Eric Alao and Victor Umunnakwe); and formal government approval to replicate the CSS model in Abia, with land mapping already underway as of early 2026. The partnership is expected to create direct and indirect jobs in farming, processing, logistics, and agro-value chains while modernising practices through technology transfer and ongoing capacity building. It complements broader industrial efforts, such as the Ultimum Ltd plant in Aba (commissioned today 25/03/2026), as part of Otti’s vision for an agro-industrial hub in the state. #InvestInAbia

Among those present were his Chief of Staff, Femi Gbajabiamila; the Minister of the FCT, Nyesom Wike; Ogun State Governor, Dapo Abiodun; and former governor Olusegun Osoba. Tinubu had earlier returned to Nigeria following a series of diplomatic engagements in the United Kingdom. He subsequently traveled to Lagos, where he observed Eid-el-Fitr prayers at Dodan Barracks. During his stay in Lagos, the President held multiple political and official meetings, including hosting 23 state governors such as Biodun Oyebanji, in what observers described as a strong display of political unity.
