DESPITE ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT, TRUMP VOWS TO ATTEND TODAY’S REPUBLICAN CONVENTION

DESPITE ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT, TRUMP VOWS TO ATTEND TODAY’S REPUBLICAN CONVENTION

Former U.S. President and Republican Party’s presidential candidate, Donald Trump, on Saturday night, said he would attend the party’s nomination convention today in Milwaukee despite the assassination attempt on him.

Donald dispelled insinuations that he might not attend the event after the murder attempt on his life at a political rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, where he sustained an injury in his ears and two fatalities were recorded .

The assailant, Thomas Matthew Crooks, 20, who was shot dead by security operatives, had attempted to kill the former President a few minutes after he mounted the podium to address party members and supporters.

FBI and other security agencies are still investigating the foiled assassination plot by Crooks, who was reported to have used a gun purchased by his father about six months ago.

The Guardian learnt that the Secret Service would have at least two security perimetres around the Fiserv Forum in downtown Milwaukee and the city itself would be beefed up with more security operatives drafted from all levels.

Public and political analysts mentioned that the convention would still host speeches throughout the week and the dozens of side events hosted by state Republican Parties and conservative organisations.

They observed further that it would even have more colours and glamour than it was planned before the Saturday shooting, saying the failed attempt had changed the narratives and fortunes of the party ahead of the polls.

Trump, who was declared safe by the Secret Service after stopping the murder attempt and whisked him out of the venue in Pennsylvania, would be formally nominated as the GOP’s presidential nominee on Thursday.

Allaying the fears of his teeming political supporters after the attack on Saturday, Trump said he would attend the convention alongside party officials, assuring the people the four-day event would be hitch-free.

Trump, on his social media page, yesterday morning, noted that he was still looking “forward to speaking to our Great Nation this week from Wisconsin.”He said: “Thank you to everyone for your thoughts and prayers yesterday, as it was God alone who prevented the unthinkable from happening. We will fear not, but instead, remain resilient in our faith and defiant in the face of wickedness.”

    BURKINA FASO PRESIDENT REJECTS FINANCIAL ASSISTANT FROM THE IMF

    BURKINA FASO PRESIDENT REJECTS FINANCIAL ASSISTANT FROM THE IMF In a move that has captured the attention of international observers and economists, Burkina Faso’s President Ibrahim Traore has made the decision to decline financial assistance from the International Monetary Fund (IMF). This decision marks a significant moment for the West African nation as it navigates its economic and political landscape The IMF, known for providing financial support to countries in need, had approved a substantial arrangement under the Extended Credit Facility for Burkina Faso, aimed at addressing the country’s balance of payments problems and supporting economic resilience and poverty reduction efforts. However, President Traore’s administration has opted to turn down this offer. This decision could be seen as a statement of economic independence and a desire to pursue a different path towards financial stability and development. It reflects a broader trend of African leaders evaluating the terms and long-term implications of international financial aid. President Traore’s stance may resonate with a growing sentiment for self-sufficiency and a cautious approach to foreign debt. One of the key reasons cited for rejecting the IMF’s assistance is the belief that such aid could perpetuate economic dependency and limit the country’s control over its financial decisions. There is also a sentiment that accepting the aid could keep the country ensnared in a cycle of debt. This perspective aligns with a broader trend among some African leaders who are re-evaluating the long-term implications of international financial aid and expressing a preference for policies that promote autonomy and self-determination. Additionally, the decision reflects concerns about the potential for international financial institutions to influence domestic policy and priorities. By turning down the IMF assistance, Burkina Faso is asserting its financial sovereignty and demonstrating a commitment to prioritizing the well-being of its citizens above external pressures. It’s important to note that Burkina Faso faces numerous challenges, including security issues and the impact of external shocks such as the COVID-19 pandemic and adverse weather conditions. Despite these difficulties, the government’s decision suggests a willingness to address these challenges independently, possibly looking towards other forms of partnership and support that align more closely with the nation’s goals and values. Burkina Faso has faced numerous challenges, including security concerns, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and adverse weather conditions, all of which have strained the nation’s economy. Despite these hurdles, the government seems committed to seeking alternative strategies for growth and development. The move has sparked discussions on the sustainability of such a decision and its potential impact on Burkina Faso’s future. Some analysts argue that while this could foster a sense of national pride and control over the country’s resources, it also raises questions about the viability of self-funded development in the face of significant economic challenges. As Burkina Faso charts its course, the international community will be watching closely to see how this decision unfolds and what it might mean for the future of financial assistance and economic sovereignty in Africa. The country’s leadership appears to be signaling a new era of autonomy and self-determination, setting a precedent that could influence the region’s economic policies for years to come.

    CHINESE FIRM RELEASES ONE-ON-ONE REALLY SEIZED PRESIDENTIAL JET

    CHINESE FIRM RELEASES ONE-ON-ONE REALLY SEIZED PRESIDENTIAL JET Zhongshan Fucheng Industrial Investment Co. Limited, a Chinese firm has released one of the seized Nigeria’s presidential jets. Recall that Zhongshan, the Chinese firm had secured a court order to confiscate three Nigerian presidential jets pending when Zhongshan receives $74.5 million awarded to it against Nigeria. The spokesperson of the company who made this known to newsmen on Friday said, the company released the aircraft because President Bola Ahmed Tinubu would need it to travel to a scheduled meeting with President Macron of France early next week. His words according to News360 Nigeria : “Zhongshan has consistently sought to act reasonably and fairly in the course of a legal dispute with Nigeria which was not of its making,” the official told this newspaper Friday afternoon. “It (Zhongshan) has now been made aware that an Airbus A330, currently detained in France as a result of a French court order obtained by Zhongshan, is needed for the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria to travel to a scheduled meeting with President Macron of France early next week. “As a gesture of goodwill, Zhongshan has lifted the seizure of that aircraft immediately. This will allow it to be used for the President’s trip. “Zhongshan remains committed to talks with representatives of the Federal Government of Nigeria, this time serious and substantive on both sides, with a view to reaching a reasonable compromise settlement rapidly.” News360 Nigeria had reported how the Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga had said that the federal government in collaboration with the Ogun State government are doing everything to quash the frivolous order obtained by Zhongshan in Paris to seize Nigeria’s presidential jets. His words:“The Presidency is aware of the various failed attempts by a Chinese company, Zhongshan Fucheng Industrial Investment Co. Limited, to take over offshore assets of the Federal Government of Nigeria through subterfuge. “The Federal Government is not under any contractual obligation with the company. The case in which Zhongshan is trying to use every unorthodox means to strip our offshore assets is between the company and the Ogun State Government. “The federal government is fully aware of efforts being made by the Ogun state government to reach an amicable resolution to the matter. “It must be said without any equivocation that Zhongshan has no solid ground to demand restitution from the Ogun State Government based on the facts regarding the 2007 contract between the company and the State Government to manage a free-trade zone. “When the contract with Ogun State was revoked in 2015, the company had only erected a perimeter fence on the land earmarked for a free trade zone. “While the Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice are working with the Ogun State Government on an amicable resolution, Zhongshan obtained two orders from the Judicial Court of Paris dated March 7, 2024, and August 12, 2024, without any notice being duly served on the Federal Government of Nigeria and Ogun State Government. “This arm-twisting tactic by the Chinese company is the latest in a long list of failed moves to attach Nigerian government-owned assets to foreign jurisdictions. “Material facts in the transaction between the Ogun State Government and Zhongshan point to another P&ID case in which unscrupulous and questionable individuals falsely present themselves as investors with the sole objective of cheating and scamming Governments in Africa. “Undoubtedly, Zhongshan withheld vital information and misled the Judicial Court in Paris into attaching the Nigerian government’s presidential jets, which are on routine maintenance in France. The use and nature of the Presidential jets as assets of a Sovereign entity whose assets are protected by diplomatic immunity forbid any foreign Court from issuing an…
