TGI Group offers free Terra Gold seasoning with every qualifying purchase, aiming to boost brand loyalty amid tough economy
Golden Terra Oil has unveiled its nationwide ‘Get Gold’ promotional campaign in Lagos, starting 12 June 2026, offering free Terra Gold seasoning packs to consumers with every qualifying purchase of Golden Terra Oil. The initiative, introduced by TGI Group, seeks to reward loyal customers and attract value-conscious shoppers across Nigeria at a time when families are prioritising quality and affordability in their cooking essentials.
The promo, which is available in stores nationwide, provides an additional incentive for consumers who already trust the Golden Terra brand for its purity and nutritional value. By combining Golden Terra Oil with the popular Terra Gold seasoning in a single offer, TGI Group aims to enhance everyday meals while giving back to their customer base.
Chief Marketing Officer of TGI Group, Probal Bhattacharya, said during the launch that the ‘Get Gold’ promo was conceived as a way to appreciate Nigerian families who continue to choose Golden Terra Oil despite economic pressures. “The Get Gold Promo is an exclusive offer to our well-deserving consumers who choose Golden Terra Oil. Every consumer deserves more, and this promo is our way of saying thank you for the trust they place in our brand,” Bhattacharya stated at a press briefing.
He added that TGI Group recognises the challenges faced by households due to rising food costs and is committed to not only maintaining product quality but also delivering added value. “We understand the realities of today’s economy, and we remain committed to delivering not only quality products but also added value that makes a meaningful difference in our consumers’ everyday lives. Through this initiative, we are rewarding loyalty while bringing together the purity of Golden Terra Oil and the great taste of Terra Gold in one exciting offer,” Bhattacharya explained.
The company says the promo will run while stocks last, with plans to monitor consumer response before considering future reward programmes. Industry observers note that such initiatives are likely to boost market competition within Nigeria’s fast-moving consumer goods sector as brands seek new ways to retain their customer base amidst fluctuating disposable incomes.

Young Nigerians in Lagos Raise Alarm Over Trust and Women’s Inclusion Ahead of 2027 Elections
Activists urge political parties to prioritise gender balance and rebuild confidence among youths before next polls
Activists urge political parties to prioritise gender balance and rebuild confidence among youths before next polls
Young Nigerians in Lagos have expressed serious concerns about low trust in the electoral process and continued underrepresentation of women, calling on political stakeholders to address these gaps ahead of the 2027 general elections. The issue was raised during a public forum held on Sunday, where participants highlighted the urgent need for reforms that will encourage wider participation and restore faith in Nigeria’s democracy.
The event saw several youth leaders and advocates for gender inclusion voicing frustration over persistent barriers facing women who seek elective positions, as well as a growing sense of apathy among young voters. Speakers pointed to previous election cycles where female aspirants were sidelined during party primaries, and noted that many youths remain sceptical about the ability of politicians to deliver on their promises.
With Nigeria’s population increasingly skewed towards younger demographics, observers say these trends could undermine the legitimacy and vibrancy of future polls if not addressed. “If women are not given adequate opportunities and if young people continue to distrust the system, it will be difficult to achieve meaningful development,” one participant stated during the discussion.
Organisers urged political parties across all regions—including APC, PDP, LP, and others—to adopt internal policies that promote fair representation for women at both state and federal levels. They also called for increased transparency in candidate selection processes, as well as public education campaigns aimed at countering misinformation and voter apathy among young Nigerians.
As preparations begin for the 2027 elections, stakeholders emphasised that rebuilding trust will require concrete action from party leaders, electoral bodies, and civil society groups. They warned that failure to address these issues could result in lower voter turnout and continued exclusion of critical voices from Nigeria’s democratic process.

The IED was discovered before it could detonate, and security personnel successfully neutralised the device without any reported casualties or disruption to traffic.
The command stated that preliminary investigations indicate the explosive was strategically placed to inflict harm on innocent commuters and other road users. “Preliminary findings indicate that the explosive device was strategically planted to cause mass casualties among innocent road users and commuters,” the command said in its statement.

Niger State Shuts 15 Health Centres, Arrests Suspected Fake Doctor in Suleja Crackdown
Private Health Facilities Agency seals Ellamara Hospital, says operation follows intelligence reports on unqualified practitioners
Private Health Facilities Agency seals Ellamara Hospital, says operation follows intelligence reports on unqualified practitioners
Authorities in Niger State have sealed off 15 private health centres and arrested a man accused of practising as a fake doctor during an enforcement operation in Suleja Local Government Area on Saturday. The action was led by the Niger State Private Health Facilities Agency as part of efforts to sanitise the health sector and protect residents from unsafe medical practices.
According to Dr Abdullahi Suleiman, Executive Chairman of the agency, the clampdown followed intelligence reports and routine compliance checks that revealed irregularities in several facilities. Suleiman said Ellamara Specialist Hospital was shut down after inspectors discovered that a suspect had been providing medical services without necessary qualifications or a valid practising licence.
Preliminary investigations indicated that the suspect, who allegedly dropped out of medical school, had worked as a medical doctor in Suleja for about six years. The agency noted that he was previously disengaged by a former employer over issues related to his credentials and had reportedly been arrested before in Cross River State for similar offences.
Suleiman stated that the ongoing enforcement exercise is aimed at upholding regulatory standards and ensuring only qualified professionals operate in Niger State’s health sector. “We will not tolerate quackery or illegal medical practice that puts lives at risk,” he said during an inspection tour. The agency did not immediately disclose the names of other affected centres but assured residents that further investigations would be carried out.
The Niger State Private Health Facilities Agency has urged members of the public to report suspicious activities at any health facility and warned operators to comply strictly with registration and licensing requirements. Further updates are expected as authorities continue their probe into private healthcare operations across Suleja LGA.
