War in the Middle East: Strategic Shockwaves Across Global Shipping and Business.

War in the Middle East: Strategic Shockwaves Across Global Shipping and Business. The renewed war that broke put on Saturday February 27,2023 in the Middle East is no longer a distant geopolitical crisis it is a direct operational and financial challenge for the global maritime industry. For shipowners, charterers, insurers, port operators, and cargo interests, the conflict has reintroduced a level of volatility not seen since the height of the pandemic supply chain crisis. With critical chokepoints under threat and risk premiums rising, the global shipping system is once again operating under strategic stress. At the center of concern is the Strait of Hormuz, the narrow waterway through which roughly one-fifth of global oil supply transits daily. Any credible threat of closure or sustained disruption immediately reverberates through tanker markets, freight derivatives, and bunker prices. Even limited naval confrontations or missile threats are sufficient to cause rerouting...

ANOTHER 6 KILLED IN KURU MINING FIELD

KURU, PLATEAU STATE | FIELD REPORT Six men were reportedly killed in cold blood at a mining site in Kuru, Jos South Local Government Area , Plateau State, in what residents describe as a deliberate and targeted attack on unarmed civilians . According to eyewitness accounts and community sources, the victims were engaged in legitimate mining activities when they were violently attacked and killed. No provocation was reported. No confrontation was recorded. The men were not combatants. Yet, despite the brutality of the incident, there has been no official condemnation, no decisive government response, and minimal national media coverage . This silence is not new. For years, communities across Jos, Barkin Ladi, Riyom, Bokkos, Mangu, and surrounding areas have documented repeated attacks on civilians often framed in public discourse as “clashes” or “communal violence.” Survivors and human rights advocates strongly dispute this characterization, arguing that the pattern,...

No Pity for Accountability; But Let It Not Be Selective

December 13, 2025. By Ayuba Doekyil  No person of good morals should feel pity for the duo of Chris Ngige and Abubakar Malami simply because they are under EFCC interrogation over corruption allegations. These are men who held powerful public offices and, from what Nigerians have seen and heard over the years, allegedly enriched themselves while in government.  Accountability is not witch-hunt. It is a responsibility. When public officers are invited to answer questions about how they managed public resources, there should be no pity, only a demand for truth and justice. Recent developments show that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has widened its probe into both men. Chris Ngige, former Minister of Labour and Productivity, is facing charges linked to alleged contract irregularities during his time overseeing the Nigeria Social Insurance Trust Fund.  The allegations centre on the award of contracts running into billions of naira to companies said ...
