Donald Trump Appoints Surgeon General with a Tragic Backstory
US President-elect Donald Trump has appointed Dr. Janette Nesheiwat, 48, as the nation’s new Surgeon General. A celebrated medical expert frequently featured on Fox News, Dr. Nesheiwat is widely respected for her expertise and passion for healthcare. However, a haunting chapter from her childhood has recently resurfaced in the media.
According to The New York Times, Dr. Nesheiwat accidentally shot her father, Ben Nesheiwat, when she was just 13 years old.
The incident occurred in their Orlando, Florida, home in 1990. As per the police report, she was reaching for a pair of scissors in her father’s bedroom when a fishing tackle box on a shelf tipped over, causing a .38-caliber handgun inside to discharge. The bullet struck her father in the head, and he was declared dead the following day.
The coroner ruled the incident an “accidental shooting.” Dr. Nesheiwat later described the traumatic event in her memoir, Beyond The Stethoscope, but did not explicitly reference her role in her father’s death. Instead, she highlighted how witnessing his tragic death inspired her to pursue a career in medicine.
“When I was 13 years old, I helplessly watched my dear father dying from an accident as blood was spurting everywhere. I couldn’t save his life. This was the start of my personal journey in life to become a physician,” she wrote.
Despite the tragedy, Dr. Nesheiwat’s achievements in medicine have earned her widespread acclaim. She is set to take on the role of Surgeon General with a vision of improving healthcare access and outcomes for Americans.
Nigerian pastor and overseer of the Citadel Global Community Church, Pastor Tunde Bakare, addresses and reacts to the current happenings of the country regarding the kidnapping and the abductions.
The pastor urges the government on steps they can take to solve and help the people of the country. “The Nigerian government has a clear and urgent duty to protect these Middle Belt communities, who have carried the weight of violence for far too long.”
“Rather than play the ostrich and cover up clear terrorism as mere farmer-herder clashes, the Nigerian state has a responsibility to invade the camps of armed marauders who hide under the cloak of herdsmen of whatever ethnicity, and who invade defenceless communities and gleefully massacre unarmed men, women and children.”
US President Donald Trump criticizes the Nigeria government once again after the increase of insecurity over the past few days. The president stated that the government is failing to protect Christian communities from the attacks going on.
“Nigeria is a disgrace. The whole thing is a disgrace,” Trump said. “They’re killing people by the thousands. It’s a genocide, and I’m really angry about it. And we pay, you know, we give a lot of subsidies to Nigeria. We’re going to end up stopping.”
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar speaks out against the rising insecurity in the country. He urged the government to take action and claimed that it is not too late to declare a state of emergency.
He reacted after another news of abduction of students was announced on the 21st of November.
“How many more lives must be shattered before decisive action is taken? It is not too late for the government to finally declare a state of emergency on insecurity and confront this menace with the urgency it deserves.”
