AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Football Reform Watch: The Guild of Sports Editors praised President Tinubu’s push to reform Nigerian football after NFF leadership resignations, urging a credible Normalisation Committee with integrity and competence. Public Health: Kano’s diphtheria outbreak has reportedly killed over 50 children, with calls for stronger vaccination and faster containment as health facilities face pressure. Healthcare Coverage: Health insurance enrolment hit 22.03m, up 35% year-on-year, but a big coverage gap remains as many Nigerians still pay out of pocket. Food Inflation & Everyday Survival: Food inflation rose to 20.31% in July, and street food sellers are still extending quiet credit as households struggle. Politics & Transparency: SERAP and the Nigerian Guild of Editors urged lawmakers to reject the Foreign Aid bill, warning it could curb civic space and media freedom. Tinubu vs Opposition: Atiku renewed criticism of Tinubu’s Europe vacation amid “Nigeria is burning” claims, while the subsidy debate heats up again. Economy & Markets: Moody’s shifted Nigeria’s outlook to positive, and FX utilisation jumped 74% to $16.2bn in Q1; remittances also hit a record $947m in July. Energy & Transport: Dangote raised petrol price to ₦1,265, stoking fresh pump-price fears, while the CNG promise for cheaper transport faces a street test. Security & Diplomacy: Tinubu reported xenophobic attacks in South Africa to the AU, demanding collective action ahead of January 2027.
