The ECOWAS Court ruled that Nigeria’s blasphemy laws, specifically Section 210 of the Kano State Penal Code and Section 382(b) of the Kano State Sharia Penal Code Law, violate human rights by being vague and imposing excessive penalties, including death, thereby infringing on freedom of expression.

With the Nigerian Supreme Court’s landmark ruling that the Freedom of Information Act applies to all tiers of government, a new era of transparency and accountability is emerging nationwide. This significant development empowers civil and public servants across Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs), agencies, and parastatals to prioritize openness, paving the way for citizen-led anti-corruption initiatives.

The Senate Committee on Local Content’s inaugural meeting signals a significant shift in Nigeria’s oil and gas sector, particularly for the Niger Delta region. While the the Nigerian Content Development and Monitoring Board, NCDMB, has remained largely obscured from the general public in the South, it is hoped that working partnership between the Senate Committee on Local Content and the NCDMB will boost government revenue, improve balance of payments, reduce reliance on foreign goods and services, and stimulate job creation and economic growth.
The success of this initiative will be closely watched, particularly in the Niger Delta region, where the impact on local communities and the economy will be significant.
