@dailyplug9ja: Here’s everything that happened in Nigeria today. The Presidency dismissed Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde’s demand for a United Nations-led investigation into the recent abduction of schoolchildren and teachers, describing it as unnecessary and politically motivated. Nigeria and Hong Kong have officially signed a double taxation treaty to prevent tax evasion, eliminate income double taxation, and boost bilateral trade, investment, and cross-border economic cooperation. Dangote Petroleum Refinery has officially transitioned to selling petrol, diesel, and aviation fuel in United States dollars, pegging petrol at $0.779 per litre to mitigate worsening exchange rate risks. The Lagos State Government has threatened legal action against a social media user for circulating a misleading flood video from Ghana and falsely attributing the severe flooding to Lagos. Akwa Ibom State Governor Umo Eno has approved the release of 1.3 billion Naira for eligible students, increasing the state bursary award from 20,000 to 50,000 Naira per beneficiary. Senator Sharafadeen Alli, an APC governorship candidate in Oyo State, gifted a brand-new Toyota Camry to Rachael Folake Alamu, the brave school principal who recently survived a 56-day abduction. Military veterans met with representatives of the Chief of Defence Staff to demand the immediate implementation of the approved 250,000 Naira minimum wage for serving and retired military personnel. The House of Representatives rescinded its earlier resolution on the constitutional amendment for state police, opting instead to consider a fresh executive proposal recently transmitted by President Bola Tinubu. Toba Ajiboye, the Organising Secretary of the National Union of Road Transport Workers in Lagos, has allegedly died following a reported assassination attack that shocked the state's transport sector. The Nigeria Police Force arrested Adeniyi Adeyemi in Osun State after he falsely operated as the Director-General of the fraudulent and non-existent Presidential Foreign Intervention Promotion Council. The Senate identified three security operatives who were tragically killed during the Oyo rescue operation, noting that one kidnapped teacher also died while in captivity with the armed terrorists. #trendingnews #newsupdate #nigerianews
