Olatunji Disu, Nigeria’s Inspector-General of Police (IGP), expressed his intention to impose a complete ban on tinted vehicles across the nation if it were solely within his authority. He contended that fully tinted windows present significant security threats and are often misused by kidnappers, armed robbers, and 'one-chance' operators. The IGP made these comments in Abuja while addressing concerns brought forth by Afam Osigwe (SAN), the President of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA). The NBA president specifically criticized the commercialization and renewal process for tinted glass permits, although he recognized that the police should continue to oversee their general usage. This position highlights the ongoing stringent regulations regarding the use of tinted glass on vehicles within the country. Every vehicle equipped with tinted glass in Nigeria must possess an official tinted glass permit issued by the police. The Nigeria Police Force has previously implemented a dig...

As of June 2026, the eastern-based parallel government of Libya has prohibited the entry of nationals from Sudan, Eritrea, Ethiopia, and Somalia. This decree entirely restricts citizens from these four Sub-Saharan African nations from accessing eastern Libyan territory through all land, sea, and air ports. The restrictions do not extend to accredited diplomats, consular missions, their families, and certain foreign workers in the health and education sectors. The decree was enacted by the Benghazi-based parallel government, led by Osama Hamad, which maintains a close alliance with military commander Khalifa Haftar. This administration functions independently from the United Nations-supported government situated in Tripoli. An official source from the eastern government indicated that this policy aims to "reorganize the entry of foreign nationals" and to mitigate the significant flow of irregular migration towards Europe. With Libya currently hosting an estimated 900,000 to 3 ...

Turkish security forces have apprehended 209 individuals suspected of affiliations with the Islamic State (ISIS) and banned far-left organizations in anticipation of the forthcoming NATO summit.  Extensive raids were executed throughout the capital city of Ankara following detention orders for 241 suspects, with 32 individuals still unaccounted for. Authorities have arrested 56 individuals believed to have active connections to the Islamic State group. Among the detainees, 185 are suspected of being members of outlawed far-left groups classified as terrorist organizations by Ankara. This includes 35 confirmed members of the communist Revolutionary People's Liberation Party/Front (DHKP-C), a group notorious for executing armed assaults and assassinations in Turkey. Local media sources such as T24 have reported that the operation also targeted left-wing activists, trade unionists, lawyers, and journalists, including Yildiz Tar, the editor-in-chief of the LGBTQ+ rights organization Ka...

  *Audio  - https://www.infographicsdailynews.com/2026/06/keir-starmer-announces-resignation-as.html Thank you. Thank you. Walking up this street two years ago was the proudest moment of my life. A new Labour government. The first in 14 years. A page in our country's history turned after years of disappointment and despair. The chance to change the lives of millions of people for the better. That's what I came into politics for. The journey to that point was not easy. Six years ago, I inherited a Labour Party that was politically, financially and morally bankrupt. I was told, time and time again, that my party was finished. That we were consigned to history, that a majority at the general election, let alone a landslide majority, was impossible. But we proved those people wrong because we changed our party. Ripping out the poison of antisemitism, restoring trust on the economy, defence, and national security. And becoming a party that, once again, stood proudly with, not again...

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer formally announced his resignation outside 10 Downing Street on June 22, 2026, succumbing to significant pressure from his own party members following a series of policy errors and severe local election losses. He will continue to serve as caretaker prime minister until the Labour Party appoints a successor. Former Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham is the leading candidate to assume the position. Less than two years after achieving a historic landslide victory in July 2024, Starmer departs with unprecedentedly low approval ratings. His decline was hastened by several critical factors: The Mandelson Scandal: His contentious choice to appoint party veteran Peter Mandelson as the UK’s ambassador to the US backfired dramatically when extensive connections to Jeffrey Epstein were uncovered in late 2025. Electoral Hemorrhaging: The hard-right, anti-immigration Reform UK party, led by Nigel Farage, decisively defeated Labour in local elections, instigat...

The U.S. Department of State has implemented a premium fee of $750 for expedited interview appointments for B1/B2 tourist and business visas.  This initiative is a pilot program lasting six months, from July 1, 2026, to December 31, 2026, aimed at providing a fast-track scheduling option to alleviate significant global interview wait times. The program specifically targets applicants for B1 or B2 nonimmigrant visas for business and tourism purposes. The primary benefit is the ability to secure a necessary visa interview appointment within 10 business days following payment. The $750 fee is an optional premium that is added to the standard non-refundable Machine Readable Visa (MRV) fee of $185, bringing the total to $935.  This program is limited to select participating U.S. embassies and consulates, with a maximum capacity of 25,000 requests for the pilot. Paying the premium fee solely expedites the interview booking process; it does not ensure visa approval, modify evaluation...
