Good morning Nigerias, the Nigerian news today Friday, November 13, covers the 2027 elections, political violence, education, the economy, electricity, the oil industry, legal reforms, corruption cases and sports.

This edition draws on reports published between November 10 and 13, with priority given to developments that remain relevant to Nigerians.

1. Police investigate attack on Peter Obi’s supporters as Reps move against election violence

A town hall meeting organised for Nigeria Democratic Congress presidential candidate Peter Obi in Oregun, Lagos, was disrupted on Thursday after suspected political attackers stormed the venue. The incident reportedly left supporters injured and vehicles damaged. The Lagos Police Command confirmed that an investigation was underway, while The Guardian reported that a suspected attacker had been arrested. The NDC accused the ruling APC of involvement, but the Lagos APC denied the allegation and challenged the opposition to provide evidence. Separately, the House of Representatives established an ad hoc committee to investigate political attacks and disruptions ahead of the 2027 elections. The accusations have not been established by an investigation.

2. INEC schedules nationwide mock election for November 28 to test 2027 voting technology

Commission has fixed November 28 for a nationwide mock accreditation and voting exercise as part of preparations for the 2027 general elections. INEC Chairman Professor Joash Amupitan said the exercise would test improvements to the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System and electronic results transmission. The commission also plans to ensure polling-unit results are verified in the presence of party agents before being uploaded to its IReV portal. Amupitan disclosed that security intelligence had identified a suspected plan by bandits to attack election personnel, including NYSC members. He said the suspects were being prosecuted.

3. Four UNN students die after off-campus gathering as university suspends activities

Four students of the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, have died after falling ill at an off-campus gathering in the Hilltop area of the university community. Six other people were reportedly taken to hospitals for treatment. The university confirmed the deaths and announced three days of mourning, during which academic and social activities were suspended. Preliminary findings mentioned possible alcohol abuse and drug-related items, but the vice-chancellor cautioned that the investigation had not established the actual cause. Police also said autopsies and further investigations would help clarify what happened. The incident has renewed concerns about student safety and substance misuse.

4. Tinubu says Nigeria has moved beyond emergency reforms, targets $1tn economy by 2030

President Bola Tinubu says his administration is moving from economic stabilisation towards a new phase focused on shared prosperity, industrial development and better living conditions. He reiterated the ambition of building a $1 trillion economy by 2030 and cited external reserves of about $55 billion, non-oil exports exceeding $6 billion and non-oil activities accounting for approximately 96 per cent of GDP. These figures were presented as the administration’s assessment of economic progress. Anambra Governor Chukwuma Soludo, however, argued that growth of around four per cent remains insufficient to generate enough jobs and reduce poverty, calling for substantially higher investment and faster economic expansion.

5. NERC approves another ₦30bn for free electricity meters, bringing programme funding to ₦79bn

The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission has approved an additional ₦30 billion for the third phase of the Meter Acquisition Fund under the Presidential Metering Initiative. The latest allocation raises the total approved funding under the three phases to ₦79 billion. The programme is intended to provide free meters to remaining unmetered Band A customers and speed up installations for Band B consumers. The money will be distributed among Nigeria’s 11 electricity distribution companies according to their contributions to the fund. NERC has set May 31, 2027, as the deadline for completing installations under this phase and introduced monitoring requirements to discourage delays and procurement irregularities.

6. Ogoni leaders refuse to approve oil resumption agreement without community-wide consultation

The Ogoni Dialogue Committee has refused to sign a proposed agreement with the Federal Government on restarting oil exploration in Ogoniland until credible community congresses are held across the four local government areas. The committee says residents must have an opportunity to consider the proposed arrangement and give their consent before any agreement is concluded. It has also urged the government to demonstrate greater commitment to confidence-building projects, particularly the Eleme section of the East-West Road. The position creates another hurdle for efforts to restart oil production in the area, where environmental damage and disputes over the benefits of petroleum development remain sensitive issues.

7. TRCN discovers 250 fake teaching certificates during recruitment exercise

The Teachers Registration Council of Nigeria says it uncovered 250 forged teaching certificates during a recruitment exercise involving an unidentified state seeking to employ approximately 1,000 teachers. Registrar Ronke Soyombo said the discovery reinforced the need for stronger verification of professional qualifications. The council is introducing QR-coded certificates that allow employers to authenticate credentials through its online portal. It is also tightening examination procedures and working towards a government target of having 75 per cent of teachers licensed by the end of 2026 and all teachers certified before entering classrooms by December 2027. The findings raise questions about recruitment checks and teaching standards.

8. Federal Government removes 268 obsolete laws after reviewing more than 900 enactments

The Federal Government has completed a major review of Nigeria’s federal legal framework, examining 932 enactments and 731 subsidiary legislations. The exercise identified 268 laws as obsolete, spent or repealed, while 664 enactments were cleared for inclusion in the proposed 2025 Laws of the Federation. The review committee said the work was necessary because Nigeria’s last comprehensive consolidation of federal laws took place in 2004. The exercise also identified outdated penalties, conflicting provisions and problems with statutory references. The final report is expected to be presented to President Tinubu before being forwarded to the National Assembly for further legislative consideration.

9. Court orders Faisal Maina to begin seven-year prison sentence after six years on the run

A Federal High Court in Abuja has ordered Faisal Maina, son of former Pension Reform Task Team chairman Abdulrasheed Maina, to begin serving his prison sentence for money laundering and failure to disclose assets properly. Justice James Omotosho granted an application by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission and issued a committal warrant. Faisal was re-arrested on October 14, 2026, approximately six years after he jumped bail during his trial. The court directed that the sentences of three, seven and three years should run concurrently, beginning from the date of his re-arrest, in line with the Court of Appeal’s decision.

10. Tinubu awards Flamingos players ₦100m savings bonds each after historic World Cup victory

President Bola Tinubu has rewarded each member of Nigeria’s Under-17 women’s team, the Flamingos, with a ₦100 million Federal Government savings bond following their historic FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup triumph. The coach received a ₦100 million cash award, while members of the technical crew were promised ₦50 million each. The decision to place the players’ rewards in savings bonds was explained as a way of protecting the finances of the young athletes, most of whom are minors. Nigeria made history by defeating Japan 2–1 in the final, becoming the first African nation to win the competition.

Here are 10 top 10 Nigerian news developments for Thursday, November 12, 2026.

Nigeria News Today covers the economy, insecurity, the 2027 elections, electricity, banking, public finance, education and infrastructure. Each story has been rewritten in original language, with claims attributed to the relevant authorities or sources.

1. World Bank Approves $500m for Nigeria to Tackle Flooding and Restore Degraded Land

The World Bank has approved an additional $500 million in financing to support Nigeria’s efforts to address flooding, restore degraded agricultural land and strengthen rural livelihoods across the northern part of the country. The funding will support the Agro-Climatic Resilience in Semi-Arid Landscapes Project, which covers 19 northern states and the Federal Capital Territory. According to the bank, the programme is expected to restore 1.4 million hectares of land and benefit approximately 6.6 million people by 2031. Planned interventions include watershed rehabilitation, erosion control, improved water management and measures to reduce tensions arising from competition over natural resources.

2. Nearly 64,000 Nigerians Flee to Niger Republic as Insecurity Worsens

Nearly 64,000 Nigerians have crossed into neighbouring Niger Republic since the beginning of 2026 to escape violence in northern Nigeria, according to the United Nations refugee agency, UNHCR. The organisation says the new arrivals are adding to an already difficult humanitarian situation in Niger, which hosts hundreds of thousands of refugees and asylum-seekers. Many displaced families reportedly lack adequate food, clean water, shelter and healthcare. UNHCR also expressed concern that only a small proportion of this year’s new arrivals had been formally registered, making it harder for them to access assistance. The figures highlight the regional consequences of Nigeria’s continuing security challenges.

3. Police Target AI-Generated Fake News and Phone Farms Ahead of 2027 Elections

The Nigeria Police Force says it is strengthening its digital intelligence operations to tackle artificial intelligence-generated misinformation ahead of the 2027 general elections. Inspector-General of Police Tunji Disu disclosed that officers had investigated organised phone farms allegedly used to create artificial online engagement and manipulate public opinion through coordinated accounts. The police also reported an arrest involving the alleged circulation of false information about a political candidate. Disu said the force would investigate deepfakes, voice cloning and other forms of digital manipulation but maintained that legitimate political expression and press freedom should be protected. The announcement comes amid growing concerns about technology-driven election interference.

4. Governors Develop Uniform Electricity Tariff Framework for States

The Nigeria Governors’ Forum is developing a common electricity tariff methodology to help states establish more consistent pricing arrangements following the decentralisation of electricity regulation. The proposal was disclosed at the Lagos Energy Summit, where a representative of the forum explained that states had encountered technical and regulatory difficulties while setting up their electricity markets. The framework is expected to be ready in the first quarter of 2027. It is intended to provide guidance on tariff determination and minimum regulatory standards, although it does not mean that electricity prices will automatically become identical across the country. Effective monitoring and enforcement will also remain important to the sector’s development.

5. Six Major Banks Record ₦3.11tn Profit as Combined Assets Reach ₦195tn

Six major Nigerian banking groups recorded a combined profit after tax of ₦3.11 trillion, while their total assets increased to approximately ₦195.08 trillion as of September 30, 2026. The figures, drawn from unaudited financial statements, represent a 7.5 per cent increase in profit compared with the corresponding period of 2025. Their combined assets also grew by 6.73 per cent. The institutions covered include Access Holdings, Ecobank, Zenith Bank, First HoldCo, GTCO and Stanbic IBTC. However, financial analysts cautioned that larger balance sheets do not automatically translate into stronger asset quality or sustainable earnings, noting that much of the expansion was concentrated in a few banks.

6. Afreximbank Commits $75m to Expand Loans for Nigerian Small Businesses

The African Export-Import Bank has committed $75 million in financing to the Development Bank of Nigeria to improve access to credit for small and medium-sized enterprises. The facility will be distributed through participating financial institutions and is expected to support working capital, equipment purchases, production expansion and export-related activities. Businesses in the creative economy, including fashion, film, music and design, are among the intended beneficiaries. The partnership will also provide capacity-building and export-readiness assistance to help businesses reach regional and international markets. The initiative could create additional financing opportunities for Nigerian entrepreneurs, although the practical impact will depend on how eligible businesses access the funds.

7. EFCC Appeals Court Decision on $912,550 Linked to Former Warri Refinery Managing Director

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has appealed a Federal High Court decision that dismissed its application for the final forfeiture of $912,550 linked to former Warri Refining and Petrochemical Company managing director Jimoh Olasunkanmi Yisawu. The earlier judgment lifted an interim forfeiture order after the court ruled that the commission had not sufficiently established that the funds were proceeds of crime. The EFCC is challenging that decision, arguing that the trial court did not properly evaluate evidence concerning the former official’s financial transactions and declared earnings. The appeal is still before the courts, and the allegations against Yisawu should not be treated as established findings of guilt.

8. Federal Government Says Pension Backlog Has Been Cleared and Benefits Funded Until 2029

The National Pension Commission says the Federal Government has cleared a previous 21-month backlog in accrued pension rights for enrolled federal employees and funded the benefits up to December 2029. PenCom Director-General Omolola Oloworaran disclosed that the government had moved from a position of arrears to a reported 41-month funding surplus. She also said pension payments were now being processed within a maximum of 48 hours after retirement. These are claims made by the pension regulator at a conference in Abuja. The announcement is significant for public-sector workers, although pensioners will be particularly interested in whether the reported improvements translate into consistent and timely payments in practice.

9. Student’s Death at Ogun University Triggers Questions Over Campus Safety and Emergency Care

The death of a 200-level Business Administration student at Olabisi Onabanjo University in Ogun State has sparked anger among students and alumni, with questions raised about campus transport safety and the university’s emergency medical response. The student, identified only as AJ, reportedly fell from a moving campus shuttle bus on Tuesday. Some students and the Students’ Union alleged that security checks at the university gate contributed to the circumstances surrounding the incident and that medical personnel demanded identification before providing treatment. These allegations have not been independently established. The university announced a two-day suspension of academic activities following the death, while students are demanding answers and improved safety measures.

10. Lagos Adds 24 New Coaches to Red Line Rail Service to Increase Passenger Capacity

Lagos State is expanding the capacity of its Red Line rail service with the addition of 24 coaches arranged in three train sets. Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu announced that the new trains had begun arriving and were expected to enter passenger service before the end of 2026. Each eight-coach train is designed to carry as many as 2,000 passengers per trip, potentially improving commuter movement along the Oyingbo-Agbado corridor. The expansion is part of the state’s wider effort to develop mass transportation and reduce pressure on road networks. However, the actual benefits will depend on when the trains begin operating and how frequently services are scheduled.

Nigerian News today covers national security, the 2027 elections, public finance, pension reforms, healthcare, education and other issues affecting Nigerians.

So here are the top 10 Nigerian News Headlines for today Wednesday 11, 2026

1. US Congress prepares fresh hearing on Nigeria’s security and alleged Christian persecution

The United States House of Representatives is preparing to examine Nigeria’s efforts to protect vulnerable religious communities and address insecurity in the Middle Belt. The hearing, chaired by Republican lawmaker Chris Smith, will feature US State Department officials and foreign policy experts. Discussions are expected to cover attacks attributed to extremist groups, the Nigerian government’s response and possible steps Washington could take. Nigeria has consistently rejected descriptions of its security crisis as primarily religious, maintaining that terrorism, banditry and communal violence affect both Christian and Muslim communities. The session is scheduled for Thursday, November 12, at 11 a.m. in Washington, DC.

2. APC unveils Tinubu’s second-term agenda with major promises on security, jobs and electricity

The All Progressives Congress has presented a four-pillar manifesto outlining what President Bola Tinubu’s administration intends to pursue if he secures another term in 2027. The proposed agenda covers national security, living standards, infrastructure and accountable governance. Among its targets are increasing available electricity generation towards 10,000 megawatts, recruiting additional teachers, expanding health insurance coverage and reducing youth unemployment by 2031. The party also promises more affordable housing and stronger security operations. These are campaign commitments rather than completed achievements, and their credibility will ultimately depend on implementation, funding and measurable progress.

3. INEC challenges Ladi Adebutu’s Ogun governorship candidacy over disputed PDP membership record

The Independent National Electoral Commission has told a Federal High Court in Abuja that Ladi Adebutu’s name was missing from the Peoples Democratic Party membership register submitted to the commission. INEC made the claim in a counter-affidavit responding to a lawsuit by the PDP and Adebutu over his exclusion from the list of cleared candidates for the February 6, 2027 Ogun governorship election. The commission also disputed Adebutu’s claim that membership number 1536 belonged to him. Justice Peter Lifu reportedly fixed Friday, November 13, for judgment. INEC’s position remains a court filing, not a final judicial determination.

4. Mele Kyari denies N210tn was missing from NNPCL as Senate continues financial investigation

Former Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited chief executive Mele Kyari has rejected allegations that ₦210 trillion in the company’s financial records was unaccounted for during the period under investigation. Appearing before the Senate Committee on Public Accounts, Kyari maintained that the disputed figures arose from accounting entries and bookkeeping issues rather than missing money. The controversy relates to audit queries covering 2017 to 2023. However, his explanation has not ended the legislative inquiry. The Senate committee is expected to examine his submissions and may seek further clarification from other officials and auditors. No final finding of wrongdoing or exoneration has been established.

5. DMO warns debt repayments could consume 71.7% of Federal Government revenue by 2030

Nigeria could face increasing pressure on its public finances as the Debt Management Office projects that debt servicing may absorb 71.7 per cent of Federal Government revenue by 2030 under its baseline scenario. The forecast appears in the DMO’s 2024 Debt Sustainability Analysis and exceeds the agency’s recommended 50 per cent threshold. Under a more difficult economic scenario involving weaker growth, currency depreciation and reduced revenue, the ratio could reach 97.3 per cent. The DMO also projects a decline in the debt-to-GDP ratio, showing that the central concern is not simply the size of the debt but the government’s capacity to generate revenue to meet repayments.

6. FG introduces ₦52,500 minimum monthly pension guarantee for 173,209 retirees

The Federal Government has launched a minimum pension guarantee that will provide eligible retirees under the Contributory Pension Scheme with at least ₦52,500 monthly. The National Pension Commission says 173,209 retirees are expected to benefit, with a ₦400 billion Pension Protection Fund established to finance the arrangement. The government has also introduced PenCare, a healthcare initiative intended to give low-income pensioners access to essential medical services without charge. The minimum guarantee gives effect to a provision that had remained largely unimplemented for more than two decades. It should not be interpreted as an automatic increase for every Nigerian retiree outside the scheme’s eligibility requirements.

7. FG announces tougher action against food adulteration, warns offenders could face jail terms

The Federal Government has announced plans to strengthen food safety enforcement and prosecute people involved in contaminating or adulterating food products. The Minister of Innovation, Science and Technology, Kingsley Udeh, said the government would work with the Ministry of Justice and the Attorney-General’s office to pursue offenders, who could face between six months and two years in prison under relevant laws. The proposed measures include stronger regulatory cooperation, improved food packaging and the deployment of trained food science professionals. Officials cited estimates of nearly 50 million foodborne illnesses and more than 53,000 related deaths annually in Nigeria, underscoring the public health concerns behind the initiative.

8. Ebola update: NCDC keeps 28 contacts under watch as 34 complete monitoring

The Nigeria Centre for Disease Control and Prevention says 28 people linked to the country’s imported Ebola case remain under monitoring, while 34 others have completed their individual 21-day follow-up period. The agency confirmed that Nigeria had recorded only one imported case of Bundibugyo virus disease as of November 9, with no additional confirmed infections. Contact tracing, laboratory investigations and surveillance at points of entry are continuing. The NCDC has stressed that being identified as a contact does not mean someone has contracted the virus. The monitoring process is intended to detect possible symptoms early and prevent further transmission.

9. World Bank-backed $500m programme targets better education and primary healthcare delivery

A $500 million World Bank-backed initiative is targeting weaknesses in Nigeria’s basic education and primary healthcare systems through improved budgeting, funding and management of public resources. Under the HOPE Governance Programme, officials are working towards achieving at least 80 per cent budget implementation in the two sectors across the 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory. Programme coordinator Assad Hassan disclosed that 388 state and FCT officials had received training on budget planning and execution for the 2027 financial year. The initiative is designed to ensure that approved public spending produces measurable improvements in schools and healthcare facilities rather than remaining on paper.

10. Nigeria and Saudi Arabia sign agreement to improve arrangements for 2027 Hajj

Nigeria and Saudi Arabia have signed a memorandum of understanding to coordinate arrangements for the 2027 Hajj pilgrimage. The agreement, signed in Jeddah by officials from both countries, establishes a framework covering pilgrimage quotas, compliance with Saudi regulations, operational deadlines, accommodation, transportation and healthcare. The National Hajj Commission of Nigeria says the arrangement is intended to improve coordination and protect the welfare of Nigerian pilgrims. Saudi Arabia had earlier approved an additional 10,000 places for Nigeria, increasing the country’s 2027 allocation from 50,000 to 60,000. NAHCON will work with state pilgrims’ boards and licensed tour operators to implement the arrangements.

Wike made the announcement during a stakeholders’ meeting organised by the Rainbow Coalition in Kwali Area Council on Monday.

Basambo, who previously contested the Kwara governorship election under the Labour Party in 2023, made his decision public in a statement released to journalists in Ilorin.

His departure represents another political realignment in Kwara State as parties continue to strengthen their structures ahead of the 2027 general elections.

6. Three Nigerians Arrested in India Over Alleged Immigration Violations

Indian authorities have arrested three Nigerian nationals in Delhi over allegations that they were staying in the country without valid immigration documents.

According to a report by The Times of India published on Sunday, the Delhi Police arrested the individuals over their alleged failure to possess valid residency documents.

Beyond banditry and terrorism, the report also recorded 418 homicide incidents, 227 kidnapping cases, 165 armed robbery incidents, 73 cult-related clashes and 49 cases of gender-based violence during the period under review.

The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), Edo State Command, has arrested 75 suspected drug traffickers and recorded seizures totalling 16,818.17 kilogrammes of illicit substances in October 2026.

The figures were disclosed on Monday by the state Commander of Narcotics, Mitchell Ofoyeju.

He reportedly attributed the command’s intensified activities to several operational efforts, describing the visit of the agency’s chairman, Brigadier General Mohamed Buba Marwa (retd.), as an important boost to its anti-drug operations.

INEC Chairman, Professor Joash Amupitan, made the disclosure while addressing journalists during a news conference on the voters’ register in Abuja on Monday.
