Green Party's Zack Polanski Targets North London Labour SeatsFebruary 18, 2026 4:00 PM Full SummaryLondon Assembly member Zack Polanski, 43, plans to contest a seat in Tottenham, Walthamstow, or Hackney at the next general election, likely facing Labour heavyweights like David Lammy, Stella Creasy, and Diane Abbott.

His announcement highlights the Greens' push into urban areas amid voter frustration with Labour on issues like Gaza and public services, with the next election not due until 2029.

Tinubu Signs Order Ending NNPC Oil Revenue DeductionsFebruary 20, 2026 10:56 AM Full SummaryExecutive Order 9 of 2026, signed by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and effective February 13, stops NNPC Limited from taking a 30 percent management fee and other deductions on profit oil and gas. These funds, including royalty oil and gas flaring penalties, will now flow directly into the Federation Account for federal, state, and local governments. The reform aims to boost transparency, free up over N1 trillion annually for security, education, and healthcare, and has drawn widespread online praise—though the oil workers' union warns of job risks and investor concerns. Key TakeawayPresident Tinubu took a firm stand against oil sector leakages, directing all government revenues straight to Nigeria's shared Federation Account. It's a move he says puts the people first. Context & EntitiesTopics

Nairobi Senator Sifuna Embraces 'Mimi ndio Sifuna' Rallying Cry Amid ODM Power StruggleFebruary 13, 2026 6:09 PM Full SummaryODM's National Executive Committee voted on February 11 to remove Sifuna as secretary-general for insubordination, but he rejected it as unlawful, and the Political Parties Disputes Tribunal halted the move on February 12 to preserve the status quo. Supporters, including influencers, gifted him the t-shirts ahead of a major rally in Kitengela on February 15, part of MP Babu Owino's tour highlighting youth support against party elders. The rift stems from tensions since Raila Odinga's reduced role, with Sifuna accusing elders of aligning with President Ruto's government, while allies like Winnie Odinga and James Orengo stand by him. As ODM prepares for 2027 elections, the rally could reveal shifting loyalties within Kenya's main opposition. Key TakeawayYoung TikTok fans surprised Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna at his office with white t-shirts reading 'Mimi ndio Sifuna' – Swahili for 'I am Sifuna' – showing their strong backing in a heated party clash.

UK Denies US Access to Key Bases Amid Iran Strike TensionsFebruary 20, 2026 2:52 AM Full SummaryPrime Minister Keir Starmer withheld permission to use RAF Fairford and Diego Garcia, citing international law concerns, even as President Trump links the denial to the UK's planned Chagos Islands handover to Mauritius. Trump publicly urged Starmer against the deal, warning it endangers US operations against Iran, while UK Conservatives like Nigel Farage and Kemi Badenoch blast the move as a threat to the defense partnership. The standoff heightens amid US naval deployments and rising oil prices, testing the US-UK special relationship as differing priorities emerge. Key TakeawayAs Trump sets a tight deadline for Iran on nuclear talks, the UK has drawn a firm line by refusing base access for potential strikes, straining the longtime alliance.
