FG, Don’t Derail The Concept, Origin of Unity Schools, Old Boys Association, Build Your Own Schools, ASCSN Warns

Image
  By allcitynews.ng  The leadership of Association of Senior Civil Servants of Nigeria (ASCSN) has warned the Federal Government against any move to concession or privatise the nation’s 120 Federal Government Colleges, popularly known as Unity Colleges. Just it charged Federal Government to shun anything that could derail the purpose for establishment of the schools, and also called on Old Boys Associations of those schools to establish their own schools rather than planned convertion of those schools. Speaking at a press conference held on Wednesday at King’s College, Lagos, the National Vice President of the union, Comrade Olubunmi Fajobi, said the proposed concession would make the schools inaccessible to children from low-income families and put the jobs of thousands of workers at risk. Fajobi said the union remained firmly opposed to handing over the schools to private investors or old students’ associations, insisting that Unity Colleges are national assets established t...

Lamentations: The Day We Start Calling Ourselves Snakes

Image
  By Sulaiman Aledeh There is something far more dangerous than a gun. It is an idea. An idea repeated so often that it begins to sound like the truth. An idea whispered in homes, shouted at political rallies, amplified on the radio, circulated on WhatsApp, rewarded on social media and eventually accepted by society. The idea that some human beings are worth less than others. Lately, I have watched with a heavy heart as Nigerians casually describe entire ethnic groups in language that should trouble every decent conscience. One comment in particular has refused to leave my mind. It declared that if one encountered a member of a certain tribe and a snake at the same time, the person should be killed before the snake. Read that again. Not because of anything that individual had done. Not because of any crime committed. Simply because of the tribe into which they were born.

Image
  Posted by allcitynews.ng Africa’s multi-billion-dollar beverage industry is set to get its first dedicated intelligence platform with the launch of The New Pour Summit 2026, convened by Drinkabl Africa and Drinkable Media. The virtual press conference held today unveiled the 2026 theme: “Liquid Resilience: Future-Proofing Beverage Brands in Africa’s VUCA Markets.” The summit will be held on July 25, 2026, in a hybrid format with physical attendance at Golden Tulip Westlands, Nairobi, Kenya, and a global virtual stream.

Drinkabl Africa and The New Pour Summit are the first to change that,” Balogun said. “Our mandate is simp...
