Breaking: Israeli Prime Minister Demands Release Of Hostages Before Ceasefire With Hamas....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has declared that there will be no temporary ceasefire with Hamas in Gaza until all Israeli hostages are released. He made this announcement in a televised address following discussions with US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken, who has called for humanitarian pauses in the conflict to protect civilians.
Meanwhile, Israel’s military has heightened its state of alert along the border with Lebanon, as the leader of the Islamist group Hezbollah, backed by Iran and designated as a terrorist organization in the UK and US, spoke about the ongoing conflict. In his speech at a Beirut rally, Hassan Nasrallah praised the Hamas attacks on Israel on October 7 but emphasized that they were “100% Palestinian.”
Hezbollah has increased its attacks on northern Israel from Lebanon, prompting concerns from Israel about potential consequences if Hezbollah becomes involved in the Israel-Hamas conflict.
The Hamas-run health ministry in Gaza has reported that over 9,000 people have been killed in the Strip since October 7. Israel initiated airstrikes on Gaza in response to Hamas’s actions, which included killing more than 1,400 people in Israel and kidnapping over 200 others.

In the originating motion filed on September 9 by his counsel, Anderson Asemota, Arabambi—represented alongside the Vice Chancellor as respondents—stated that his formal request for a Certified True Copy (CTC) of Obi’s 1984 Bachelor of Arts degree certificate in Philosophy (certificate number D000198) was ignored. He noted that the application, submitted under the Freedom of Information (FoI) Act, 2011 on August 6 following an initial letter, was neither granted nor formally declined with a written notice of refusal within the statutory timeframe prescribed by the law. Consequently, the suit seeks an order of mandamus to compel the university to fulfill its statutory duty by responding to his July 16 request.

Former Benue State Governor Samuel Ortom has challenged Governor Hyacinth Alia’s administration to account for approximately ₦1.2 trillion received from the Federation Account Allocation Committee (FAAC) following the removal of the fuel subsidy. Speaking through his former media adviser Terver Akase during a press briefing in Makurdi, Ortom argued that despite these record inflows—which include allocations for the state’s 23 local government areas—the administration has failed to show commensurate infrastructural projects or government presence. He criticized government officials for avoiding transparency and resorting to propaganda instead of addressing public accountability.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
In a swift counter-statement, Governor Alia’s Chief Press Secretary, Sir Tersoo Kula, defended the administration’s track record, pointing out that increased revenue does not equate to infinite resources. Kula contrasted the current economic realities—such as soaring inflation, high construction costs, and security challenges—with Ortom’s tenure, noting that the previous administration frequently used a lack of funds as an excuse for poor performance.
