“We Will Do Everything to Stop Russia and End the War in 2025” – Zelensky Vows
In a powerful New Year address, Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky vowed that 2025 would be a pivotal year for his country in its ongoing battle to end Russia’s nearly three-year-long invasion.
Speaking just before midnight in Kyiv, Zelensky acknowledged that peace would not be handed to Ukraine, but vowed to push forward with all available means.
“We know that peace will not be given to us as a gift, but we will do everything to stop Russia and end the war,” he declared.
The war, which has now entered its third year, has cost Ukraine dearly.
In 2024, Ukraine lost seven times more territory to Russia than in the previous year, a sign of the ongoing struggle against a well-equipped and resourceful Russian army.
In response, Zelensky made it clear that Ukraine would continue to fight on all fronts, both on the battlefield and diplomatically, to ensure it is in a strong position ahead of any potential peace negotiations.
“Every day in the coming year, I, and all of us, must fight for a Ukraine that is strong enough,” he said.
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.
