Tinubu Skips UNGA to Address Nigeria’s Flood Crisis, VP Shettima to Lead Delegation
President Bola Tinubu has made the decision to forgo attending the 79th United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) in New York, prioritizing instead the pressing domestic issues facing Nigeria.
His choice comes in light of the recent catastrophic flooding that has severely impacted various regions across the country.
In a statement released on Thursday by his media adviser, Bayo Onanuga, it was announced that Vice President Kashim Shettima will lead Nigeria’s delegation at the assembly in Tinubu’s absence.
This decision reflects the president’s commitment to addressing urgent national challenges and ensuring that effective measures are taken to assist those affected by the flooding.
The president’s focus on domestic affairs highlights the critical need for leadership and action in the face of natural disasters, as well as the importance of providing support to affected communities.
By prioritizing these issues, Tinubu aims to demonstrate that Nigeria is taking proactive steps to recover and rebuild, underscoring his administration’s dedication to the welfare of its citizens.
A viral clip has made its way online showing a police officer in Delta State shooting a suspect who had already been restrained.
It can be noted that the suspect was pleading, claiming he had been framed and deceived, and said he would lead them to the right place.
However, while he was pleading, the police officer shot him. The officer later stated that the suspect was armed with a gun.
It was later revealed that the police officer has been arrested, as it is against the law to shoot a restrained suspect.
It was reported by the Kogi State Government that 24 children were abducted from an orphanage home. It was shared that this happened on the 26th of April, Sunday, and gunmen were seen in the area that day.
The information was shared by the Commissioner of Information, Kingsley Fanwo, who shared this sad news and described it as unfortunate.
“We condemn in strong terms the abduction of innocent children from an orphanage, the government is working closely with security operatives to ensure their safe return,”
Ghanaian media personality Afia Schwarzenegger speaks on the xenophobia issues occurring around Africans in South Africa.
