Harris Takes Over Biden-Harris Campaign Account, Renamed ‘Harris for President’
On July 22, 2024, it was reported by Francis Ugwu that the Biden-Harris campaign has officially revised its filings with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) to reflect a significant change in its leadership and focus.
The campaign has renamed its principal committee and now recognizes Kamala Harris as a presidential candidate.
According to the Campaign Legal Center, Harris is permitted to take over the Biden-Harris campaign account, provided she remains a candidate for the general election. As of the end of June, the campaign account had a substantial balance of nearly $96 million.
On the same day, President Joe Biden announced the suspension of his reelection campaign for 2024. Shortly after Biden’s withdrawal, the campaign committee promptly updated its paperwork with the FEC, officially redesignating the committee as “Harris for President.”
Alongside this re-designation, a letter was submitted to the FEC confirming that Vice President Harris is now a candidate for the U.S. presidency in the upcoming election.

Tinubu Visits Maiduguri After Devastating Flood
President Ahmed Bola Tinubu has arrived in Maiduguri to extend his sympathies to the government and people of Borno State following the devastating flood caused by the Alau Dam.
According to reports, the president touched down in Maiduguri at approximately 3:15 pm, where he was welcomed by Governor Babagana Zulum.
The flood, which struck earlier in the week, submerged large portions of Maiduguri, resulting in significant loss of life and widespread destruction of properties.
During his visit, President Tinubu is expected to pay a courtesy visit to the Shehu of Borno, Abubakar Umar-Garbai El-Kaneni.
From there, he plans to visit one of the camps set up to house those displaced by the disaster and offer support to the affected communities.
The flood has caused extensive damage across the state, leading the Borno government to establish 36 camps to accommodate the thousands of displaced individuals.
The president’s visit is seen as a significant gesture of solidarity, as efforts continue to provide relief to those impacted by the calamity.
The flood’s aftermath has been devastating, with residents struggling to recover from the destruction of homes and essential infrastructure.
Government agencies and humanitarian organizations have been working around the clock to provide relief, but the challenges remain overwhelming.
Many are hopeful that the president’s visit will not only bring much-needed aid but also shine a light on the urgent need for long-term solutions to prevent similar disasters in the future.
In the coming days, authorities will likely focus on rehabilitating displaced persons and reconstructing damaged areas.
