In a recent statement, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump issued a notable warning to Vice President Kamala Harris in anticipation of the upcoming United States election.

Trump suggested that Harris would be a more vulnerable opponent compared to President Joe Biden.

This comment came shortly after Biden’s announcement that he was withdrawing from the presidential race due to concerns about his age and health.

Following his decision, Biden endorsed Harris as the Democratic Party’s candidate for the presidency. In response to her nomination, Harris has committed to defeating Trump in the forthcoming election.

During a phone interview with CNN, Trump expressed his view on Biden’s presidency, declaring, “He is the worst president in the history of our country. He will be remembered as the most ineffective president by far in the annals of our nation’s history.

Trump then speculated that Harris might be an easier target for defeat than Biden would have been, stating, “While it remains uncertain who will ultimately be the Democratic nominee, I believe Vice President Harris will be simpler to defeat than Biden would have been.”

Former Petroleum Minister Diezani Alison-Madueke has filed a motion to amend her lawsuit challenging the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission’s (EFCC) order for the final forfeiture of her seized assets.

At a Federal High Court hearing in Abuja presided over by Justice Inyang Ekwo, Alison-Madueke’s counsel confirmed filing the amendment motion and serving the EFCC. Notably, no EFCC representatives appeared in court.

The embattled ex-minister also sought an extension of time to contest the EFCC’s public notice regarding the sale of her confiscated properties, claiming she was denied a fair hearing during the forfeiture proceedings.

The EFCC, however, rejected Alison-Madueke’s allegations, maintaining that the forfeiture cases were lawfully adjudicated over time.

Justice Ekwo adjourned the case to February 17, 2025, to consider the motion to amend the originating process.

Tron Founder Justin Sun Buys $6.2M Banana Artwork, Plans to Eat It

Published

Justin Sun, the founder of blockchain platform Tron, has purchased Comedian, a conceptual artwork by Maurizio Cattelan featuring a banana duct-taped to a wall, for $6.2 million at a Sotheby’s auction in New York.

Initially valued at $1–$1.5 million, the sale exceeded expectations, drawing bids from seven contenders. Originally priced at $120,000 during its 2019 debut at Art Basel Miami Beach, Comedian has sparked global debates about the absurdities of contemporary art.

 

Sun views the purchase as a cultural statement rather than a simple acquisition. “This bridges art, memes, and cryptocurrency,” he said, revealing plans to eat the banana as part of the artwork’s experiential essence.

Known for challenging societal norms, Cattelan’s works often provoke controversy. Buyers of Comedian receive instructions to replace the banana due to its perishability.

Sun’s acquisition highlights his growing involvement in art and tech intersections, following his $78.4 million purchase of Alberto Giacometti’s Le Nez. While celebrated as an entrepreneur, Sun has also faced legal challenges, including allegations of cryptocurrency manipulation.

The $6.2 million banana reinforces the unpredictable relationship between art, commerce, and culture, embodying modern art’s power to provoke and perplex.
