BREAKING:The U.S. Supreme Court has struck down Donald Trump’s sweeping tariffs on major trading partners, ruling 6–3 on Friday, February 20, 2026 that he overstepped his authority by using the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) to impose broad import duties. Chief Justice John Roberts wrote for the majority that tariff power belongs to Congress, not the president, signaling a major setback for Trump’s trade agenda and limiting how far emergency powers can be stretched for big economic moves. Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, and Brett Kavanaugh dissented. The ruling could also trigger fresh legal battles over what happens to billions in tariffs already collected, including possible refund claims.#BreakingNews, #SCOTUS, #Trump, #Tariffs

The Power of an Innovative Mindset An innovative mindset is more than just thinking creatively—it’s a way of approaching problems, opportunities, and everyday challenges with curiosity, flexibility, and a willingness to take calculated risks. People with an innovative mindset don’t just accept the status quo; they question it, experiment with new ideas, and learn from failures as much as from successes. At the core of innovation is curiosity. Those with an innovative mindset constantly ask “why” and “what if,” seeking to understand systems deeply and explore new possibilities. They are adaptable, able to pivot when circumstances change, and resilient, seeing setbacks as stepping stones rather than roadblocks. Innovation also requires collaboration. While individual creativity is important, groundbreaking ideas often emerge from exchanging perspectives, challenging assumptions, and building on the insights of others. Ultimately, cultivating an innovative mindset transforms the way we approach life and work. It encourages continuous learning, inspires bold solutions, and drives progress—turning challenges into opportunities and ideas into impact.

Terrorists Demand ₦250m, 20 Motorcycles for Release of 166 Abducted Worshippers in Kaduna Suspected terrorists who abducted at least 166 worshippers in Kajuru Local Government Area of Kaduna State have raised their ransom demand to ₦250 million and 20 motorcycles. The village head of Kurmin Wali, Mr. Ishaku Dan’azumi, disclosed this on Tuesday while speaking about the worsening plight of the community, days after armed men carried out one of the largest mass abductions in recent times. According to Dan’azumi, the attack occurred on January 18, 2026, when gunmen stormed Kurmin Wali village during a religious gathering. The assailants reportedly invaded three churches in the area and abducted men, women, and youths indiscriminately before fleeing into the surrounding forest. He said the kidnappers initially made contact with the community with a lower demand but later increased it to ₦250 million alongside 20 motorcycles, a figure far beyond the capacity of the affected families. Residents have appealed to the government and security agencies to intensify rescue efforts, warning that the community is traumatized and living in fear as the abductees remain in captivity. #Kaduna #Insecurity #MassAbduction #NigeriaNews
