A SENIOR OFFICIAL from a prominent public school, currently out of office following disciplinary action linked to disputed school levies, is said to have become a regular visitor to the office of a senior government official. Sources claim the official believes the senior figure sanctioned the levy that later came under scrutiny for allegedly falling outside Ministry of Education guidelines. The administrator is reportedly seeking his intervention in hopes of returning to service before retirement. But insiders say the senior official is grappling with his own political uncertainty, making any intervention increasingly unlikely despite the persistent visits.

THE POLITICAL CIRCLES are awash with claims that an aspiring politician recently received substantial financial backing from a well-connected figure to mobilise supporters ahead of recent political events. Separately, a man once associated with an outlawed group has reportedly been heard boasting that he is ‘back in business’ after landing a lucrative assignment. The talk has fueled speculation about possible attempts to allegedly disrupt a prominent politician's activities. Insiders, however, say the politician believed to be the target has since scaled back public appearances as a precaution while monitoring the unfolding situation.

A LAWMAKER IS said to be having second thoughts about his 2027 political plans following the outcome of a by-election. The MP, who had firmly backed a particular political side, is now reportedly saying he supports the government for the sake of development but will allegedly take political direction from voters when the time comes. Those close to him say he now believes he may have made the wrong political choice. But switching sides may not be easy, as some influential figures in the other camp are said to view him as someone who deserted them when it mattered most.
