The Nigerian Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas Workers (NUPENG) has suspended its two-day strike after reaching an agreement with the Dangote Group.

"We have suspended the strike. The Dangote refinery has agreed to unionise its drivers. We signed an agreement," NUPENG's National President, Williams Akporeha, confirmed.

The agreement came after a meeting convened by the Department of State Services (DSS), where the Dangote refinery team, led by Sayyu Dantata, consented to unionise its drivers.

The strike was called off following the agreement, which aims to resolve the dispute over unionisation rights for the refinery's 4,000 truck drivers.

This development brings relief to the nation, as the industrial action had led to fuel scarcity in some parts of the country, with several filling stations shut down.

President Bola Tinubu has vowed to end persistent power failures in Nigerian hospitals, stating that no Nigerian should die due to electricity interruptions. "Today, we face a pressing issue that affects every Nigerian: the persistent power supply crisis in our tertiary hospitals and public health institutions. In surgical theatres, maternity wards, intensive care units, laboratories, and emergency rooms across the country, power outages too often compromise safety, interrupt care, and cost lives. This crisis demands our immediate attention and concerted action," he said through the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Senator George Akume.

Tinubu emphasized that the situation is unacceptable and pledged to act: "These outages cannot continue, and under our administration, they should not. Lives are at stake. We must act now." He explained that this initiative is part of the Renewed Hope Agenda, targeting decentralized energy, private-sector participation, and renewable systems.

The President added, "Let me therefore affirm unequivocally that my administration is fully committed to the transformation of our health sector by targeting innovative solutions at the hydra-headed challenges bedevilling the sector... This initiative to advance energy solutions in our hospitals is not an isolated intervention. It is an integral part of the strategic direction of the Renewed Hope Agenda."

He highlighted the Energy Transition Plan and Power Sector Reform initiatives, stating they are laying the foundation for "cleaner, more resilient, and more decentralised energy delivery systems across Nigeria. These efforts are deeply rooted in the principles of sustainability, innovation, and inclusivity.

Veteran Nollywood actor Yemi Solade hasn't set foot in a church for over a decade, and he's speaking out about why. In a recent podcast, Solade shared that his decision to stop attending church stemmed from a 2013 incident where his pastor advised him to turn down film roles on Sundays. Solade saw this as an attempt to sabotage his career and bluntly "cursed" the pastor.

"If you see me in a church, it's either we are filming... Something happened in my church, I got into the church with my wife that year, 2013. I've been told in the church to tell producers not to call me for work on Sundays and I sepe’d for the Pastor," Solade recounted.

He questioned the notion that his life would fall apart without regular church attendance, saying, "A notion that if you don’t attend church, one’s life will nosedive, I have not seen anything change. Rather, I have peace, I do well, because everyday of my life when I was going to church, I got messages, all sort of disturbances." Since leaving the church, Solade claims his life has become more peaceful, allowing him to focus on his career without constant interruptions.

Solade also criticized the demands of church life, asking, "If you are not invited to one committee… When will I have time to work?" He believes that church expectations can interfere with personal priorities and livelihood.

The actor's comments have sparked online debates about balancing religious obligations with personal freedom. Solade remains unapologetic about his views, stating, "It is from that thing that you said I shouldn’t do on Sunday that I put hand in my pocket and I drop here." He emphasizes that his life has been more stable and peaceful since he stopped attending church.
