Reports on the abduction of six siblings in Abuja, the country’s capital, dominate the cover pages of Nigerian newspapers.

The Punch reports that seven major oil marketers in Nigeria have registered with the Dangote refinery for the lifting and distribution of refined petroleum products produced by the company. The newspaper says civil society groups, lawyers, and other concerned citizens have asked the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to recover the N772 billion from former governors and ministers.
The Nation reports that the All Progressives Congress (APC) said there was no trade off with the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) over the supreme court judgment on Plateau and Kano governorship election disputes.
Daily Trust reports that outrage has trailed the killing of one of the six siblings kidnapped on Tuesday night by bandits in Abuja. The newspaper says the Nigeria Union of Teachers (NUT) Abuja chapter has directed primary school teachers in the nation’s capital to begin strike today.
The Guardian reports that reckless abandonment of legacy companies may have worsened the general high unemployment rate and dwindling revenue in the five south-east states. The newspaper says the discussion on merger by the NNPP, PDP, and Labour Party (LP) is gaining momentum.
THISDAY reports that the national working committee of the PDP has sent petitions to the National Judicial Council (NJC) over its members in the Plateau house of assembly and national assembly sacked by the court of appeal.
