Bangladesh Prime Minister Steps Down as Protests Turn Deadly; Interim Government in Place

Bangladesh’s Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has resigned and fled the country amid escalating protests and violence.
Following weeks of unrest and clashes that resulted in over 300 deaths, Hasina’s departure came as protesters stormed her palace in Dhaka, despite a national curfew.
In response, Army Chief Waker-Uz-Zaman announced that an interim government will take over, calling for calm.
Protesters, defying the curfew, continued to demonstrate, with large crowds gathering in the capital. The violence peaked on Sunday, with nearly 100 deaths reported in a single night.
The unrest, which began with student groups demanding the removal of a controversial job quota system, has evolved into a broader movement against Hasina’s administration.
The prime minister had been in power for nearly 20 years and had recently won re-election in a contested vote.
In the wake of the violence, the government has declared a holiday, closed courts, and restricted internet access.
Reports indicate that at least 11,000 people have been arrested, and there have been significant disruptions to education and daily life.
The UN’s human rights chief, Volker Türk, has condemned the violence and called for restraint from all sides, urging the Bangladeshi government to end the crackdown on peaceful protesters and restore internet services to facilitate dialogue.
It remains uncertain if the resignation will quell the protests or if demonstrators will continue their demands for change.

Sanwo-Olu Promises to Improve Traffic with New AI Powered Technology

Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has made it clear that his government will not tolerate any form of assault on officers of the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA). Speaking through his deputy, Dr Obafemi Hamzat, at the Second Lagos Traffic Conference on Tuesday, the governor said anyone caught attacking traffic officers will be made to face the law.
The event, held in honour of LASTMA’s 25th anniversary, brought together key stakeholders to reflect on traffic challenges and explore new solutions under the theme: “Enhancing Traffic Efficiency and Safety on Lagos Roads: Challenges, Opportunities, and Innovations.”
Sanwo-Olu praised the efforts of LASTMA officers who he said work in tough, often dangerous conditions to keep Lagos roads under control. He acknowledged their sacrifices and dedication, saying their presence is the thin yellow line between traffic order and chaos.
“I truly commend every LASTMA officer for your courage and commitment. You’ve stayed strong even when the job puts you at risk, and that speaks volumes about your dedication,” he said. He also paid respects to officers who died in the line of duty, calling them heroes whose sacrifices would always be remembered.
Looking ahead, Sanwo-Olu shared plans to modernize LASTMA with technology that fits today’s traffic demands. He said the government would increase investment in smart systems such as AI-powered tools, automatic number plate recognition, and drone surveillance. These tools, he explained, will make it easier to monitor traffic in real time, respond quickly to incidents, and improve the overall movement of vehicles across Lagos.
