AGP Executive Report

Last update: 12 hours ago

Consumer Protection Push: VI Premier Wheatley says the new Consumer Protection Act won’t regulate gas prices—only items in the “essential basket”—as residents keep pressing for relief from fuel costs. Courts & Accountability: A Nigerian federal court convicted a P&ID director, James Nolan, and a related company in absentia over money-laundering charges tied to the alleged $9.6bn P&ID scam, with sentencing to follow if the fugitive is arrested. Electricity Reliability: In Lagos, Isolo Power Gen won approval for a 9MW embedded generation project that could move Isolo toward 24/7 power. Governance & Future Planning: Premier Wheatley also framed VI’s constitution talks as a need for a “modern” charter that removes “undue impediment.” Local Food Security: Territorial At-Large rep Stacy Mather urged residents to buy more local produce and seafood as part of VI’s relief measures against rising living costs. Finance Watch: Federal banking regulators published updated host state loan-to-deposit ratios, with the Virgin Islands listed at 52%.
