The PUNCH: The Minister of Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, has solidified his position in the Peoples Democratic Party leadership crisis as the National Working Committee endorsed the Rivers State congresses. Wike’s loyalists within the PDP NWC not only secured the approval but also postponed the National Executive Committee meeting, originally set for September 26, to October 24, which could have overturned the decision.
Vanguard: Amidst lingering supply bottlenecks in the petroleum downstream sector, the uncertainty around pricing has pitched the management of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) and that of Dangote Refinery in a battle to determine petrol price acceptable to all stakeholders in the petrol supply value chain.
The Nation: Governors are standing united in their support for victims of the devastating flooding in Maiduguri and Jere in Borno State. They pledged food support and hailed the Federal Government and Borno State Governor Babagana Zulum for immediately rising to the occasion, thereby mitigating the losses.
Daily Trust: Survivors of the Maiduguri flood, the worst in three decades, have narrated their harrowing experiences before they were rescued. The heavy rainfall, which began Monday night had ruptured the Alau Dam in the outskirts of Maiduguri, the Borno State capital and flooded residential areas and public buildings, including hospitals and schools.
