As the world celebrates Blood Donor Day, Nigeria’s First Lady, Oluremi Tinubu, has called on citizens to donate blood and help save lives. Speaking on the 2025 theme, Give blood, Give hope: together we save lives, she said it reflects the powerful message that each donation brings hope to those in urgent need.

World Blood Donor Day was launched by the World Health Organization in 2004 to raise awareness about the importance of safe blood, encourage voluntary donations, and honour those who donate without expecting anything in return.

Marking the day in Abuja, the First Lady participated in the City Marathon Walk from Millennium Park to Eagle Square. She was represented by Hajiya Nana Shettima, wife of the Vice President, who echoed the First Lady’s appeal for more Nigerians to become regular, safe blood donors.

There is no indication that Osimhen had any involvement in the incident, which appears to have been caused by inaccurate user edits on Google Maps.

Nigerian politician and former presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has reacted to the viral video of the passenger incident on Ibom Airline.

Peter Obi stated that the way she was handled was wrong, linking it to double standards in the justice system. He expressed that the country needs fairness and recalled the airline situation involving KWAM 1, noting that nothing happened to him in comparison to Miss Emmanson, who was stripped and taken to court.
