     By allcitynews.ng  Nigeria has joined the league of nations whose measurement standards are recognised worldwide, after signing the Mutual Recognition Arrangement of the International Committee for Weights and Measures (CIPM MRA) in France. The feat coincided with the third years anniversary in office of the Director-General of the Standards Organisation of Nigeria (SON), Dr Ifeanyi Chukwunonso Okeke, who signed on behalf of Nigeria at the 28th meeting of the General Conference on Weights and Measures (CGPM).

   By allcitynews.ng  A Non-governmental Organisation, the Working People United (WoPU) has commended President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for the Federal Government’s intervention in the petroleum sector, aimed at moderating petrol costs and easing the economic burden on Nigerians.

At a time when Nigerians are grappling with ...

Such an interpretation is misleading and fails to distinguish between a fundamental policy reversal and a temporary intervention in response to an extraordinary economic shock. The current escalation in petroleum product prices is driven principally by developments in the global energy market, particularly geopolitical tensions that have pushed crude oil prices above $100 per barrel.
