Mark Zuckerberg Meets with Trump at Mar-a-Lago Resort
Facebook founder and billionaire Mark Zuckerberg met with incoming US President Donald Trump at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida, on Wednesday.
This meeting highlights the growing connection between the Meta CEO and the president-elect as Trump prepares for his second term.
According to a Meta spokesperson, the meeting focused on the future of American innovation, and Zuckerberg appreciated the opportunity to discuss key matters with Trump and his team.
The meeting comes after months of reported communication between the two, including Zuckerberg’s comments praising Trump’s resilience following an assassination attempt earlier this year.
Despite past tensions, including Trump accusing Zuckerberg of potential election interference in his recent book, Wednesday’s meeting suggests a new chapter in their relationship.
Trump adviser Stephen Miller described Zuckerberg’s involvement as a sign of support for the reform movement Trump claims to lead in America and beyond.
It has been reported that the Ebola virus is rising again and there have been some cases. This has caused fear in many, with talks of different viruses spreading.
Amid this concern, the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) reassured the people that no trace of Ebola has been confirmed in the country, despite the outbreak in Africa.
FAAN shared that they have been on the lookout for travellers who may have symptoms, and so far there is none.
It has been reported that the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), has finally released the withheld results of 279 students.
It can be recalled that some results were held due to investigations of cheating. Some results proved to have traces of malpractice and were cancelled, but the ones without traces have been released and the students can finally move on.
JAMB also shared additional advice for students that might have not seen theirs: “Candidates whose results have not yet been released are advised to check their status by sending UTMERESULT to 55019 or 66019 using the same phone number used for registration to view their released results.”
It was reported that former Nigerian president Goodluck Jonathan has allegedly purchased a presidential candidate form for the 2027 elections.
It can be noted that Jonathan served as Nigeria’s president from 2010 to 2015.
This information was revealed by Sani Useni, a special assistant who made the claim. Many reacted to the news, with some expressing interest in seeing Jonathan return to power after staying relatively quiet politically since his administration ended.
However, Jonathan has not yet addressed the public or officially shared any presidential ambition.
