Institute Offers Guidance to North West Farmers for 2024 Rainy Season The Institute for Agricultural Research at Ahmadu Bello University (ABU) Zaria has issued recommendations to farmers in the North West region concerning the upcoming 2024 rainy season, in alignment with predictions from the Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NIMET). Prof. Ado Yusuf, the Executive Director of the Institute, shared these insights during a session with journalists in Zaria on Monday. Yusuf emphasized NIMET’s forecast indicating a dryer-than-normal wet season for 2024, with early rainfall expected in few states but delayed onset anticipated for most northern states. Highlighting the distinction between the first rain and the season’s onset, Yusuf cautioned about possible dry spells, which might extend beyond two weeks, particularly in the northern states. He advised farmers to delay planting until rainfall is well established to mitigate the risk of replanting. Additionally, he suggested opting for early maturing seed varieties due to the forecasted early cessation of rainfall in many areas. Considering the shortened rainy season, Yusuf recommended that farmers in the North Central States, known for root and tuber crops, diversify their crops by including cereals. For moisture conservation in the face of anticipated hot temperatures, Yusuf urged farmers, especially in the North-Western states, to employ techniques such as ridges and avoid zero or minimal tillage. He emphasized the importance of water retention through enclosures. Livestock farmers, particularly poultry farmers, were advised to ensure adequate water supply for their animals due to the expected high temperatures. By adhering to these strategies, farmers can better navigate the challenges posed by the predicted weather patterns and optimize their agricultural practices for the 2024 rainy season.

NLC Takes Action: Shuts Down Jos DisCo Headquarters Amidst Electricity Tariff Hike Dispute In a bold move, the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) has shuttered the headquarters of the Jos Electricity Distribution Company (JEDC) in Plateau State, citing vehement opposition to the recent electricity tariff hike. Reports indicate that the NLC effectively barricaded the main entrance, rendering DisCo staff stranded outside the premises. The NLC’s action comes as part of a broader nationwide initiative, jointly spearheaded with the Trade Union Congress (TUC), aimed at compelling the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) and Distribution Companies (DisCos) to heed their demand for a complete rollback of the electricity tariff hike. The escalation of tensions between labor unions and regulatory bodies underscores the profound discontent simmering amongst the populace over the persistent issue of electricity tariffs. As the NLC flexes its collective muscle in pursuit of consumer rights, the standoff between labor and industry stakeholders intensifies, prompting concerns over potential disruptions to the energy supply chain. This latest development serves as a stark reminder of the socio-economic ramifications intertwined with electricity pricing policies, underscoring the imperative for constructive dialogue and equitable resolutions to address the concerns of all stakeholders involved.

Escaped Army Horses Injure Four Persons On London Streets London Army and Emergency Services reported that four people were taken to the hospital after spooked army horses broke loose during morning exercises in Central London and galloped through the streets at rush hour. Photos and videos shared on social media by British news outlets depicted two horses running along busy roads, maneuvering through buses, taxis, and other traffic. Both horses were wearing saddles and bridles, with one appearing to be covered in blood on its chest and forelegs. Several prestigious Army cavalry regiments have stables in the British capital, and horses are a common sight around government buildings on Whitehall, Buckingham Palace, The Mall, and in nearby Hyde Park. The London Ambulance Service stated that they were called at 8:25 am (0725 GMT) to reports of a person being thrown from a horse on Buckingham Palace Road. However, no details were released regarding the injured individuals or the exact circumstances of their injuries. A Mercedes car driver recounted waiting outside a hotel on Buckingham Palace Road when he felt something crash into his vehicle. He observed three or four horses near the vehicle, with an Army rider being thrown off and injured.
