SUPERNEWS Nigeria has announced the Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of Universal Insurance Plc, Dr. Jeff Duru, as the Chairman of it’s highly anticipated annual conference and 10th Anniversary celebration slated for July 7, 2026.

Similarly, the Group Managing Director/CEO of Royal Exchange Plc, Mrs. Idu Okeahialam will deliver the keynote paper at the annual conference which is presently in its 4th edition.

The conference themed; ‘Local Content & Digitisation: Building Synergy Between Oil & Gas and Insurance Sectors for Inclusive Growth’ will take place at Oriental Hotel, 3 Lekki Road, Victoria Island, Lagos, at 10:00 a.m prompt.

The event is expected to attract regulators, operators, sectors’ chief executives, policymakers, civil society organisations, media practitioners, students, among other stakeholders.

The Commissioner for Insurance and Chief Executive Officer of the National Insurance Commission (NAICOM), Mr. Olusegun Ayo Omosehin, has confirmed his participation as a Special Guest of Honour while the President, the Nigerian Council of Registered Insurance Brokers (NCRIB) Mrs. Ekeoma Ezeibe will equally grace the occasion.

Erudite and prominent speakers ready for the conference include the Managing Director/CEO, Stanbic IBTC Insurance, Mr Akinjide Orimolade and the Managing Director/CEO Guinea Insurance Plc. Mr Ademola Abidogun.

Others include the MD/CEO Deepshores Energy Limited, Mrs Nneka Obi and Professor Olajide Fadun, of the Department of Insurance and Actuarial Science, University of Lagos.

Speaking on the rationale behind the choice of the conference theme, the Publisher of SUPERNEWS Nigeria and the convener of the epoch making event, Ngozi Onyeakusi, explained that the whole effort was geared providing insight on how both sectors can leverage technology-driven solutions to strengthen synergy, so as to overcome challenges associated with the implementation of Sections 49 and 50 of the Nigerian Oil and Gas Industry Content Development (NOGICD) Act.

She noted that the provisions of Sections 49 and 50 of the Act mandates operators involved in oil and gas activities to ensure all insurable risks connected to their businesses are covered with insurance companies and brokers registered in Nigeria.

The Act further stipulates that where an operator seeks to place an insurable risk offshore, a written approval of the National Insurance Commission (NAICOM) must first be sought and obtained and that NAICOM, prior to the issuance of the approval, must first determine that local capacity has been fully exhausted.

In a bid to smoothen the implementation and compliance to the Act, the Nigeria Content Development and Monitoring Board (NCDMB) and NAICOM in 2022 launched the relevant guidelines which was expected to address the loopholes that were identified in implementing the provisions of the Act, particularly, Sections 49 and 50

However, research has shown that insurance firms before now still faced lots of challenges ranging from capital inadequacy among others.

With the birth of the Nigeria Insurance Industry Reform Act (NIIRA) 2025, the insurance industry is now positioned for global competitiveness while the ongoing recapitalisation exercise is expected to pave way for big, strong and reliable insurance firms.

The conference therefore provides a veritable platform for robust deliberation on how digitisation, policy reforms, and implementation of local content guidelines can drive inclusive growth and sustainable partnership between the oil & gas and insurance industry.

Stressing that Lawal’s claims are untrue, Atiku said that, contrary to the allegation, he attended a church thanksgiving service in the Kagoro area of Southern Kaduna to show support for the grieving community and share in the pain of families affected by the violence.

In a statement titled, “From Kagoro to Chibok: The Atiku Babachir Lawal Refuses to See,” signed by his spokesperson, Phrank Shaibu, the former Vice President said that when tragedy struck the people of Kagoro in Southern Kaduna, he did not ask whether the victims were Christians or Muslims, northerners or southerners, Fulani or non-Fulani; instead, he stood with them.

He stated that over the years, he has consistently condemned terrorism, banditry, kidnappings, communal violence, attacks on Christian communities, attacks on Muslim communities, and other forms of insecurity across Nigeria.

According to the statement, “The problem of banditry in Northern Nigeria is very real. Thousands have been killed. Communities have been displaced. Farmers have abandoned their lands. Families are now budgeting for ransom payments just as they budget for school fees. Using that tragedy to blame an entire ethnic group is both intellectually lazy and morally wrong.

“There is an irony here that Mr. Lawal appears unwilling to confront. The same ethnic group he now speaks of with so much suspicion once gave him tremendous support when one of its most prominent members, Muhammadu Buhari, appointed him to the highest office he would ever hold in public service as Secretary to the Government of the Federation. At no point during that appointment did Mr. Lawal object to the fact that a Fulani man elevated him to such a prominent national position.

“He accepted the trust, the office, and the privileges that came with it. It is therefore strange and unfortunate that he now seeks to condemn an entire ethnic group simply because another Fulani man, Atiku Abubakar, seeks to become president through a democratic process. Such selective outrage is neither fair nor credible.

“The facts also contradict his attempt to portray Atiku as indifferent to the suffering of people across ethnic and religious divides. When the people of Kagoro in Southern Kaduna suffered a devastating tragedy, Atiku Abubakar did not ask whether the victims belonged to a particular ethnic group, religion, or background.

“He attended a church thanksgiving service to identify with the people, share the pain of grieving families, and support a hurting community. That is how a leader behaves when he sees Nigerians as fellow citizens rather than as members of competing ethnic groups. It is difficult to reconcile Babachir’s portrayal of Atiku with the public record of a man who has consistently worked to unite people across religious and ethnic lines during periods of national crisis.

“Babachir further questioned why Atiku has not spoken about victims of violent attacks across the country. This accusation collapses under the weight of readily available evidence. For years, Atiku Abubakar has consistently condemned terrorism, banditry, mass killings, attacks on Christian communities, attacks on Muslim communities, kidnappings, and communal conflicts. He has spoken on the tragedies that occurred in Plateau, Benue, Southern Kaduna, Zamfara, Katsina, Borno, Niger, Owo, and many other locations.

“One may disagree with his prescriptions. One may even question whether statements alone are sufficient. But to claim that he has remained silent is simply incorrect.”

Chairman of the Agency, Malam Salihu S. Abubakar, disclosed this in a statement issued on Tuesday, saying all pilgrims would be transported home in the same sequence in which they arrived in the Kingdom for the 2026 Hajj exercise.

This is contained in a statement signed by the Public Relations Officer of the Kaduna State Pilgrims Welfare Agency, Ibrahim Datti, on Sunday.

According to him, pilgrims who departed Nigeria on the first flight will be returned on the first inbound flight, while subsequent groups will be airlifted according to their original travel schedules.

Abubakar stressed that no pilgrim would be permitted to alter or select a different return flight outside the arrangements made by the agency.

“Pilgrims who arrived on the first flight will return on the first flight, while other groups will be transported according to their respective schedules,” he said.

The chairman urged all Kaduna pilgrims to cooperate with officials of the agency and strictly comply with the approved return timetable to ensure a smooth and successful airlift operation.

Tinubu made these remarks through the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, George Akume, on Sunday at the National Inter-Denominational Church Service held at the National Christian Centre in Abuja, as part of activities marking the 2026 Democracy Day celebration.

The service, themed “God of Hope, Actualise Our Dreams,” was attended by Senate President Godswill Akpabio, Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives Benjamin Okezie Kalu, Minister of Foreign Affairs Bianca Odumegwu-Ojukwu, and the Head of Civil Service of the Federation, Mrs. Didi Walson-Jack.

The SGF, while delivering President Tinubu’s message, congratulated Nigerians on 27 uninterrupted years of democratic rule since 1999, describing the milestone as a testament to the resilience and sacrifices of citizens who fought for the restoration of democracy.

He paid tributes to pro-democracy activists of the June 12 struggle, noting that many endured persecution, injuries and death in that quest.

According to him,  the government was fully aware of the economic strain, insecurity, kidnappings and displacement affecting communities across the country.

“The government is sensitive to all these pains, shares in these pains and has heard your cries,” he said, adding that Tinubu was addressing the challenges with compassion and a strong sense of responsibility.

Speaking on security, the President described recent attacks and abductions as painful reminders that more work remained to be done, but assured citizens that the safe return of all persons in captivity remained a national priority.

He added security agencies were being supported with the necessary resources to protect lives, secure communities and preserve Nigeria’s territorial integrity.

“The government of Nigeria shall never succumb to terror, banditry or any form of criminal intimidation,” he declared.

Makinde announced the directive in an Executive Order issued on Friday.

The governor, while addressing residents of the state on the ongoing efforts to secure the release of abducted teachers and pupils of Oriire Local Government Area, assured the people that the state government remained committed to ensuring their safe return.

Makinde, in a video seen by Saturday PUNCH, said the operations of motorcycle riders would henceforth be restricted between 10:30pm and 5:30am across the state

He noted that the directive formed part of additional security measures introduced through an executive order aimed at curbing criminal activities and improving public safety.

“With the signing of this executive order, we are also introducing additional measures to enhance security across our state. Consequently, the operations of motorcycle operators, popularly known as Okada riders, will now be restricted between the hours of 10:30pm and 5:30am throughout Oyo State,” the governor said.

Makinde stressed that the government would not relent until the abducted teachers and schoolchildren regained their freedom, describing their continued captivity as painful for their families and communities.

“We will not relent until our teachers and children are returned safely home. Every day they remain in captivity is a painful day for their families, their communities, and all of us in Oyo State. They have not been forgotten, and they have not been abandoned,” he said.

According to him, the government may not be able to disclose details of ongoing rescue operations due to security considerations, insisting that intensive efforts were being made behind the scenes in collaboration with security agencies.

“We may not be able to disclose every step being taken because of the sensitive nature of the operations involved, but I ask our people not to mistake our silence for inaction. A great deal of work is being done behind the scenes, and we remain fully engaged with all relevant security agencies,” Makinde added.

The governor also called on residents to support security agencies by providing useful information that could help prevent crime and improve security in their communities.

“We can create laws and regulations, but their success ultimately depends on the cooperation of our people. This is another opportunity to remind us all that security is a shared responsibility.

“If you see something, say something, and the authorities will do something,” he said.

Makinde further urged residents to make use of the state’s toll-free emergency lines to report suspicious activities and security threats promptly.

In a situation report obtained by Saturday PUNCH, the agency listed “politicisation of cholera” among the challenges encountered in efforts to contain the disease.

This came as the NCDC disclosed that it had deployed emergency response teams to cholera-affected states as part of measures to curb the ongoing outbreak.

The report detailed ongoing surveillance, laboratory, case management, water sanitation and risk communication interventions being implemented nationwide.

Highlighting the challenges, the NCDC identified politicisation, delayed diagnosis, shortages of critical supplies and weaknesses in surveillance, among other factors, as issues shaping the trajectory of the outbreak.

Although the report did not provide details of specific incidents, public health experts have repeatedly warned that political interference and misinformation can undermine disease surveillance, weaken public trust and delay coordinated outbreak response efforts.

According to the report, active case search operations are ongoing across affected states, while technical support is being provided to state response teams.

“Active case search ongoing in all affected states; remote and on-site support to state teams; SORMAS data validation and harmonisation; active case search team deployed to Kano,” the NCDC stated.

The agency said surveillance officers were also conducting data validation and harmonisation through the Surveillance Outbreak Response Management and Analysis System to improve outbreak tracking and response coordination.

Laboratory testing is being supported through the National Reference Laboratory in Abuja and the Central Public Health Laboratory in Lagos, while healthcare workers have received training on sample management, rapid diagnostic testing and culture procedures.

The report noted that authorities were also following up on the shipment of samples from Maiduguri to the National Reference Laboratory to strengthen case confirmation efforts.

To improve treatment outcomes, the NCDC said healthcare workers across several states had undergone training in cholera case management, infection prevention and control.

It added that infection prevention handbooks had been distributed to health facilities, standard operating procedures developed and needs assessments conducted to strengthen response capacity.

The report further disclosed that specialised training had been conducted for Cholera Treatment Unit teams in Niger State.

On water, sanitation and hygiene interventions, the agency said boreholes had been constructed and rehabilitated in Benue, Edo, Adamawa and Nasarawa states.

According to the report, 112 water points were chlorinated in Adamawa State, while hygiene promotion campaigns reached more than 12,000 people in affected communities.

The agency also stated that community-level interventions were ongoing to reduce exposure to contaminated water sources.

The NCDC said response commodities were being distributed to states battling the outbreak.

“Essential response commodities distributed to all affected states on an ongoing basis,” the report stated.

The agency added that epidemiological trends were being monitored to determine areas that may require vaccination campaigns.

“Epidemiological trends being monitored to guide ICG request for Oral Cholera Vaccine campaigns in high-risk areas.”

Public awareness efforts have also been intensified, with cholera jingles airing in English and local languages, while information, education and communication materials continue to be distributed nationwide.

However, despite the ongoing response, the NCDC warned that several challenges continue to shape the trajectory of the outbreak.

Chief among them is inadequate access to safe drinking water.

“Inadequate access to safe water in affected communities, particularly in urban wards in Maiduguri and Jere, remains the primary driver of ongoing transmission. Without improvements to water supply and quality, case counts may continue to rise,” the agency warned.

The report also blamed delayed diagnosis and reporting for sustaining transmission in affected communities.

“Delayed diagnosis and reporting contributes greatly to this current burden as the diagnosis of acute watery diarrhoea was made for weeks in place of cholera,” the report stated.

According to the agency, delays in seeking medical attention have also contributed to severe illness and avoidable deaths.

“Late/delayed health-seeking behaviour across affected communities means patients are arriving at Cholera Treatment Centres in severe condition, increasing the risk of preventable deaths. Intensified community messaging is a priority.”

The report further highlighted shortages of critical treatment supplies.

“Shortfalls in medical supplies, including Ringer’s Lactate and IV fluids at treatment centres, are being addressed through emergency national resupply. States have been directed to write formally to the Director-General, NCDC, to accelerate this process.”

The agency also expressed concern about weaknesses in surveillance and laboratory systems.

“Surveillance gaps remain at Local Government Area level, with insufficient active case search teams relative to the scale of hotspot areas. Data reporting discrepancies between field teams and SORMAS continue to affect situational awareness.”

On laboratory operations, the report noted, “Laboratory capacity constraints, including limited universal sample containers and low culture positivity rates, are affecting the ability to confirm suspected cases and track laboratory trends accurately.”

The NCDC further warned that insecurity was limiting access to healthcare and emergency response activities in some communities.

“Access constraints in insecure and hard-to-reach Local Government Areas are limiting both treatment availability and response activities, particularly for night-time referrals.”

The report also identified funding shortages as a major obstacle to outbreak control.

“Funding constraints at state level are limiting the scale and sustainability of response interventions, particularly in a state managing concurrent humanitarian emergencies.”

Nigeria continues to experience recurrent cholera outbreaks driven largely by poor access to safe water, inadequate sanitation facilities and weak hygiene practices.

The disease, caused by the bacterium Vibrio cholerae, is spread through contaminated food and water and can lead to severe dehydration and death within hours if left untreated.

Health experts maintain that while emergency response measures are critical during outbreaks, long-term investments in potable water supply, sanitation infrastructure and public health systems remain essential to ending Nigeria’s recurring cholera burden.

The command said the sanitation exercise would hold from 7 am to 10 am on Saturday, June 6, 2026.

In a statement issued on Friday by the Police Public Relations Officer, ASP Nahum Kenneth Daso, on behalf of the state Commissioner of Police, Naziru Abdulmajid, the command said the directive was aimed at promoting environmental hygiene and preventing the further spread of the disease.

According to the statement, the enforcement will be carried out in collaboration with the Borno State Environmental Protection Agency.

“The enforcement is being carried out in collaboration with the Borno State Environmental Protection Agency (BOSEPA) as part of ongoing efforts to promote environmental hygiene and mitigate the spread of the contagious disease across the state,” the statement said.

The police noted that maintaining a clean environment remains one of the most effective ways of preventing cholera and other sanitation-related diseases.

Residents were urged to participate actively in the exercise by cleaning their homes, business premises, drainage channels and surrounding environments.

To ensure compliance, police personnel and other relevant stakeholders will be deployed to strategic locations across the state during the sanitation period.

The command advised members of the public to restrict unnecessary movement and cooperate fully with enforcement officers.

“The Borno State Police Command assures residents of its commitment to safeguarding public health and maintaining public order while calling on all citizens to support government efforts aimed at preventing the further spread of cholera,” the statement added.

The directive comes amid a significant cholera outbreak that has swept through Borno State since early May 2026.

PUNCH Online reported on June 2 that health authorities in the state said at least 39 people have died, while about 4,204 cases of cholera have been recorded across seven local governments.

The command also urged residents to report emergencies or security concerns through the nearest police station or designated emergency lines.

The group, operating under the banner of the Kebbi ADC Unity Forum, specifically recommended Paul Gambo Tase for the deputy governorship position, arguing that the choice would promote equity, inclusiveness and regional balance within the party.

The forum’s coordinator, Garba Abdulkareem, made the call in a statement issued on Thursday in Birnin Kebbi.

According to him, Tase, a former Labour Party governorship candidate and an indigene of Kebbi South, possesses the experience and competence required for the position.

Abdulkareem said the forum believes the deputy governorship slot should be zoned to Kebbi South, noting that Malami hails from Kebbi Central Senatorial District.

He added that the recommendation was based on considerations of fairness, merit and political inclusion as consultations continue ahead of the 2027 election.

The forum described itself as a coalition of party members, professionals, community leaders, youths and women seeking to strengthen the ADC’s prospects in the state.

According to the group, Tase has indicated his willingness to serve if nominated by the party and its governorship candidate.

Tase was the Labour Party governorship candidate in Kebbi State during the 2023 general election and is a retired economist who previously worked with the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC).

Malami, a former Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, recently emerged as the ADC governorship candidate for the 2027 election in Kebbi State.

Months after coordinated attacks left more than 80 people dead across several communities, survivors say the pain has not ended.

Homes were burnt, food stores looted, farms abandoned, and properties worth hundreds of millions destroyed.

Yet, beyond the bloodshed and displacement, many residents now fear there may be a deliberate effort to redefine what happened and bury the truth beneath the softer language of “communal clash.”

From the onset of the violence, several residents and community voices rejected attempts to describe the attacks as ordinary communal unrest. They insisted that what happened was a coordinated armed invasion carried out by alleged heavily armed Fulani attackers who stormed multiple communities simultaneously.

Despite this, some government officials and security authorities repeatedly leaned on the “communal clash” narrative, a description many affected residents believe grossly misrepresented the scale and nature of the killings.

For many survivors, the concern was not only about semantics, but about what that classification could eventually mean, accountability, justice, compensation, and even ownership of ancestral lands.

During a recent visit to affected areas by President Bola Tinubu’s Special Assistant on Community Engagement, Dr. Abiodun Essiet, another painful reality reportedly emerged.

Several of the attacked communities remain largely deserted, with displaced villagers yet to fully return home due to lingering fear and insecurity.

According to residents, some of the same individuals identified as participants in the attacks are now openly grazing cattle in those abandoned communities without resistance or challenge.

To many locals, that development has strengthened suspicions that the attacks may have been more than mere reprisals.

“The attackers have now taken over the very communities they displaced.

“That tells you this was never just a clash. It was a conquest,” one resident lamented.

Videos and photographs circulating online appear to support the scale of displacement, showing villagers, including women and children, fleeing with loads balanced on their heads as they searched for safety in neighboring settlements.

What has further fueled frustration among residents is the belief that the issue is gradually fading from public attention while attacks and intimidation allegedly continue in isolated forms, especially on farmlands.

Some community members accuse local leaders of weakening the push for justice by participating in reconciliation meetings that, according to critics, prematurely portrayed the crisis as resolved while victims were still displaced.

At one point, relief materials meant for affected persons were reportedly shared in ways some residents interpreted as equating victims with alleged attackers, a move critics say reinforced the “communal clash” narrative they had consistently opposed.

Although meetings were later held between affected communities and Fulani leaders, residents say little has been heard about whether agreements reached during those engagements were ever implemented or respected.

Meanwhile, reports of fresh attacks on farmers and continued insecurity in surrounding areas have persisted quietly, even as public discussions around the tragedy gradually diminished.

One of the loudest voices challenging the official narrative is Yahaya Kana Ismaila, who insists the attacks fit the pattern of organised armed violence rather than communal conflict.

According to him, the affected Eloyi communities share neither ethnic ties nor territorial identity with the armed men accused of carrying out the attacks, a major factor he argues weakens claims that the violence was communal in nature.

He maintained that the attackers came in large numbers, armed with sophisticated weapons, attacking multiple settlements simultaneously before burning homes and forcing residents to flee.

The debate over terminology has since become central to the crisis itself. While authorities and some stakeholders continue to frame the violence as communal unrest, many residents believe such descriptions risk minimising the gravity of what occurred.

Kana, a public affairs commentator, further described the Udege killings as a grim reminder of the growing insecurity in Nasarawa State, warning that the continued absence of arrests and accountability could deepen fear and hopelessness among residents.

According to him, despite reports that more than 70 people lost their lives in the attacks, no suspect had been arrested at the time of his reaction, a development he said raises serious concerns about justice and protection for vulnerable communities.

He lamented the destruction of homes, farm produce, motorcycles, and livelihoods built over several years, stressing that many affected families may never fully recover from the losses inflicted on them.

He further argued that the crisis had created an atmosphere where many rural residents now feel abandoned and helpless, especially in the face of recurring attacks linked to disputes over kidnapping, grazing, and destruction of farmlands.

“The painful reality is that many innocent people have been left traumatised, displaced, and uncertain about their future.

“Entire communities have been shattered, while survivors are expected to simply return and rebuild their lives amid fear and insecurity,” he stated.

He warned that unless decisive action is taken by security agencies and government authorities, the perception that armed groups can attack communities without consequences may continue to embolden criminal elements across the state.

As fear spreads across affected communities, residents continue to issue desperate appeals for urgent intervention from both the Nasarawa State and Federal Governments.

Reacting to renewed tension in parts of Odeni Gida Ward, Abdulwahid Angala Odeni described the situation as devastating.

“My people are shattered and homeless. My heritage is under invasion by radical hoodlums Fulani herdsmen. Odeni Gida Ward, Udege Development Area, Nasarawa Local Government Area, Nasarawa State.

“The Government of Nasarawa State should come to our aid.”

Another resident, Suleiman Otto Wakili, also called on federal authorities to step in.

“Fulani herdsmen attacked Sabon Gida Angwa Ogiri in Odeni Gida Ward, Nasarawa State. The Federal Government should take action concerning our situation please,” he said.

For many displaced residents, trust in local authorities appears to be fading rapidly.

Questions are increasingly being raised over the response of the Nasarawa State Government, security agencies, and emergency institutions.

Particular concern has also been expressed over the absence of large-scale humanitarian support, despite earlier assurances that aid would be provided to assist displaced persons and encourage safe return to affected communities.

Now, many victims believe the only remaining option is to push their case directly to the Presidency and demand federal intervention before more communities are permanently lost to fear, displacement, and silence.

As displaced families continue to wander between uncertainty and survival, one painful question continues to echo across Odeni Gida:

If the people cannot safely return home, then who truly owns the land now?

According to the statement, the governor approved the indefinite suspension of Sule A. Musa, the Special Assistant on Education Monitoring in Auyo Local Government Area.

The statement said, “Governor Umar Namadi has approved the indefinite suspension of Sule A. Musa, Special Assistant on Education Monitoring, Auyo Local Government Area.”

The government did not state why Musa was suspended.

In a separate decision, Namadi lifted the suspension earlier placed on Basiru Abdullahi, popularly known as “Optimistic,” and returned him to his position as Special Assistant on Health Monitoring in Kafin Hausa Local Government Area.

The statement added, “Governor Namadi has lifted the suspension on Basiru Abdullahi (Optimistic), the Special Assistant to the Governor on Health Monitoring, Kafin Hausa Local Government Area.”

Abdullahi, who was suspended earlier this year, is expected to resume work immediately.

The government said both decisions take effect immediately.

The development comes as political tensions continue within the APC in Jigawa following recent party primary elections.

Several political appointees had previously been suspended over alleged anti-party activities, although the state government did not officially link the latest actions to the party crisis.
