Loke Says Keeping Promises Outweighs Political Positions

Malaysia’s transport minister Anthony Loke said his resignation was a firm decision grounded in his belief that public commitments must be honored, and he praised ministry staff for reforms and progress across aviation, maritime and land transport. In Nigeria, South-East leaders renewed calls for regional unity, stronger infrastructure and greater political influence, adopting a nine-point set of demands while leaving open who will ensure the resolutions are implemented. Imo State Governor Hope Uzodimma urged leaders to pursue a more strategic relationship with the federal government rather than remain focused on grievances. A separate report framed the issue of political accountability by asking former Kenyan leaders what they delivered while in government.
