AAU Ekpoma Restricts Movement Amid Nationwide Protest
In anticipation of a nationwide protest planned for tomorrow, targeting issues of bad governance in Nigeria, Ambrose Alli University (AAU) Ekpoma has imposed restrictions on the movement of students and staff.
The university’s management, led by Acting Registrar Comrade Ambrose E. Odiase, issued a directive restricting travel to only essential movements and confining individuals to their residences within the campus or nearby areas.
This precautionary measure aligns with a directive from the National Universities Commission (NUC), aimed at ensuring the safety of all university personnel amidst potential disturbances.
The university has coordinated with local security agencies to enhance security measures, ensuring the protection of lives and property within and around the campus grounds.
According to the statement released by the university, both students and staff are advised to minimize unnecessary travel during the period of the protests.
Specifically, students residing in the halls of residence are instructed to remain on campus, while those living off-campus should stay within their homes.
Staff and students are also encouraged to continue with their academic activities and avoid any areas where the protests might escalate, to reduce the risk of encountering any potential threats.
Despite the heightened security measures, the university’s administration reassures that students should proceed with their first-semester examinations without fear of disruption or intimidation.
Nigerian politician Peter Obi speaks on the increase in the cost of living in Nigeria and shared how more Nigerians are now hungry and the hunger crisis is increasing in the country.
He stated, “Despite three years of Tinubu’s food emergency, Nigeria’s hunger ranking index declined to among the worst nations globally.”
“Yet the outcome of this has been the opposite. Nigeria’s hunger index has worsened significantly. Nigeria’s hunger index ranking was 103rd out of 123 countries surveyed in 2022/2023, and this figure has since worsened to 115th out of 123 countries surveyed in 2025/2026.”
The U.S. government has released a warning to social media influencers who will be coming to watch the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
The government placed a rule on creating content to make money while using a tourist visa and stated that it could lead to deportation back to their country.
It can be noted that the World Cup will be hosted in the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
“People who enter the United States under a visitor program and receive income from a U.S. source would be violating the conditions of their admission status.”
Nigerian businessman Isaac Fayose has spoken about what he considers one of the country’s biggest problems, stating that many Nigerians are worried about government taxation, insecurity, and the increasing rate of kidnappings for ransom.
He lamented the situation and criticized the government, arguing that these issues have become deeply rooted and that there appears to be no lasting solution in sight.
According to him “In Nigeria we have two governments. One is collecting tax, the other one is collecting ransom. Both of them have one thing in common which is to make life difficult for their people.
The one that is collecting tax without doing anything will come and share you rice and semolina. The one that is collecting ransom is doing giveaway on social media.”
