The PUNCH: Nigerians have spent about $4.66bn on foreign air travels in 15 months, according to findings by The PUNCH. Data obtained from the Central Bank of Nigeria showed that the amount was sold to foreign airlines between the first quarter of 2022 and the first quarter of 2023.
The Guardian: Though the Nigerian Senate, at the weekend, rejected President Bola Tinubu‘s request to deploy Nigerian troops in Niger Republic to restore democratic rule in the troubled country, military intervention may have come to Nigeria at a heavy cost to warrant a pull back from the avoidable brink.
The Nation: Preparatory talks over enhanced minimum wage have opened between the Federal Government and states.

This is part of the moves to mitigate the spike in inflation, following the removal of petrol subsidy and the unification of exchange rates.
Daily Trust: The one week deadline that the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) handed the military coupists has elapsed. Last week, the regional body gave the junta seven days to reinstate ousted President Mohamed Bazoum and restore democratic order.
