TINUBU ASSURES OKONJO-IWEALA OF NIGERIA’S SUPPORT ON REAPPOINTMENT AS WTO DIRECTOR GENERAL

TINUBU ASSURES OKONJO-IWEALA OF NIGERIA’S SUPPORT ON REAPPOINTMENT AS WTO DIRECTOR GENERAL

President Bola Tinubu has assured the reappointed Director General of the World Trade Organization, WTO, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala of Nigeria’s continued support.

Tinubu gave the assurance while congratulating Okonjo-Iweala on her unanimous re-election as WTO DG.

Okonjo-Iweala made history in 2021 as the first African and first woman to lead the 164-nation-member WTO.

Her first term as the seventh Director-General of the WTO will expire on August 31, 2025, while her second term begins on September 1.

Tinubu said Okonjo-Iweala’s unanimous appointment for a second four-year term demonstrates the trust and confidence the international community places in her leadership.

He disclosed this in a statement signed by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Bayo Onanuga.

The statement reads: “President Bola Tinubu congratulates Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, former Coordinating Minister for the Economy and Minister of Finance, on her unanimous re-election today as the Director-General of the World Trade Organisation (WTO).

“The renowned development economist and global finance expert made history in 2021 as the first African and first woman to lead the 164-nation-member WTO.

“Her first term as the seventh Director-General of the WTO will expire on August 31, 2025, while the second term begins September 1.

“The Nigerian leader notes with delight that Dr Okonjo-Iweala’s unanimous appointment for a second four-year term demonstrates the trust and confidence the international community places in her leadership to advance multilateral trade for sustainable global development.

“President Tinubu is confident that her continued leadership will strengthen the international economic organisation’s role as a critical pillar of inclusive global economic growth and good governance in the next four years.

“As a committed member of the WTO, ECOWAS, and the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA), Nigeria will continue to support the WTO’s mission to foster a fair, inclusive, and equitable multilateral trading system.

“President Tinubu assures Okonjo-Iweala of Nigeria’s steadfast support as she consolidates her bold reforms, dedication to equitable global trade practices, and tireless efforts to promote international cooperation.”

    TRUMP APPOINTS NIGERIA-LEBANESE BUSINESSMAN ADVISOR ON ARAB MIDDLE EASTERN AFFAIRS

    TRUMP APPOINTS NIGERIA-LEBANESE BUSINESSMAN ADVISOR ON ARAB, MIDDLE EASTERN AFFAIRS President-elect Donald Trump has announced that Nigerian-Lebanese businessman Massad Boulos will serve as his senior advisor on Arab and Middle Eastern affairs. The decision, made public on Trump’s Truth Social platform, highlights Boulos’ influential ties to the Middle East and his extensive business dealings in Nigeria, a key African economy. Boulos, who is married to Tiffany Trump, Trump’s youngest daughter, has spent years fostering relationships across the political and economic landscapes of Nigeria and Lebanon. Known for his ability to navigate complex political environments, Boulos has reportedly met with Arab and Muslim leaders, as well as Lebanese stakeholders, during Trump’s campaign, strengthening support for Trump’s re-election bid. Business and Political Influence in Nigeria Born in Lebanon, Boulos moved to Nigeria as a young man, where his family established a thriving business empire. The Boulos Enterprises Group, a name synonymous with Nigeria’s industrial growth, has contributed significantly to the country’s economic development through manufacturing, importation, and distribution of goods. His long-standing ties to Nigeria’s business community have earned him respect as a bridge between African and Middle Eastern markets. Boulos’ Nigerian connection also helped foster an African narrative in Trump’s re-election campaign, with outreach to Nigerian-American communities in key swing states like Michigan and Pennsylvania. This strategy resonated with conservative voters concerned about U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East and African economic partnerships under the Biden administration. Bridging Divides in Lebanon In Lebanon, Boulos is known for maintaining relationships with factions across the country’s deeply divided political spectrum. While he has ties to Hezbollah-linked Christian allies such as Suleiman Frangieh, he also engages with groups like the anti-Hezbollah Lebanese Forces Party. Such rare versatility has made him an influential figure in Lebanese politics. However, his Lebanese political ambitions have been limited by the sectarian structure of the country’s government. As a Greek Orthodox Christian, his path to higher office has been capped at positions like deputy speaker of parliament. Nevertheless, his new advisory role in Trump’s administration could give him the political leverage that eluded him in Lebanon. Impact on Trump’s Campaign Boulos played a critical role in mobilizing Arab and Muslim voters during Trump’s campaign, particularly in Michigan, where Arab-American and Muslim populations are significant. Campaign officials credited Boulos with flipping voter blocs that had previously leaned Democratic by addressing concerns over U.S. policies in Lebanon and Gaza. Boulos also spearheaded efforts to connect with African and Middle Eastern immigrant communities, organizing meetings and private events to build trust in Trump’s vision for international diplomacy. His Nigerian connections helped engage voters of African descent, emphasizing economic growth and anti-war policies. A New Opportunity Boulos’ appointment has sparked optimism among some in Lebanon and Nigeria who see his role as a potential bridge to influence U.S. policies favorably toward their regions. His deep business roots in Nigeria and connections to Lebanon’s political elite position him as a unique player in Trump’s team, blending African, Middle Eastern, and American perspectives. For now, the appointment reflects Trump’s strategy of leaning on family ties and trusted allies as he prepares for a potential return to the White House. Whether Massad Boulos’ Nigerian and Lebanese ties will bring tangible benefits to these regions remains to be seen, but his diverse background offers an intriguing element to Trump’s advisory circle.

    A HISTORY OF ZIONIST ATROCITIES, BY FEMI FANI-KAYODE

    .A HISTORY OF ZIONIST ATROCITIES I am not anti-semitic and I have many Jewish friends who I hold in high esteem. I recognise the fact that there are millions of Jews all over the world, particularly in Europe, Russia, Iran, Ethiopia and even in the United States of America itself, who have publicly renounced the excesses and atrocities of the Zionists and who seek nothing but peace, fellowship, love, fraternity and mutual respect with their non-Jewish neighbours. Riding Motorbike Alone Across Laos – Beautiful Memories from LAOS – Nếm TV Having said this I must also put on record my utter disgust and disdain for the Zionists and for Zionism itself which is a political construct and philosophy that I consider to be akin to apartheid and therefore evil. It is a philosophy that is espoused by those that can best be described as intellectual barbarians and cultural hegemons. Tax reform: For whose gain? ‘Why proposed legislations are generating controversy’The Restless Writer: Lessons from My JourneyTo add to this I feel nothing but repugnance, contempt and revulsion for the racism and fanaticism of the Ashkenazi Jews, the progenitors and primary promoters of Zionism, who the Allied powers of World War 11, at the behest and with the money of the stupendously wealthy Rothschild family, established Israel for and handed her over to in 1948. The Ashkenazi were and still are essentially proxies and agents of the Rothschilds and the Western powers, the enforcers of their purpose and collective will in the Middle East and the protectors of their numerous interests in that region. From inception they constituted themselves into the rich, elite and all-powerful ruling political class of the Jewish State despite the fact that they were nothing but a bunch of non-semitic white primarily Eastern European colonial settlers and immigrants, who were not even originally Jewish but only converted to Judaism in the 18th century and who saw and still see every other true Jew including the Sephardic Jews and the real Semites (including the Palestinians) as being inferior to them and unfit to lead their nation. In a clumsy attempt to cover their non-semitic origins and obscure the fact that they have no genetic link with the people of the Middle East from the outset they banned all DNA testing in Israel and that remains the case till today. This is because the Askenazi cannot legitimately trace their ancestry back to Israel for more than two generations! That is how crafty they are! To get a clear picture of precisely what the world is up against this contribution will focus on not just the atrocities of the Zionists and the Zionist state of Israel but will also offer a small glimpse into the dark and frightful history of Jewry generally. It is not designed or intended to offend or to be an attack on the Jews but rather a historical analysis of some of the unspeakable crimes and injustices they have committed and indulged in over the years that have shaken the foundations of humanity and brought pain and sorrow to millions all over the world. Let us begin with the most significant event of all which took place 2000 years ago in Jerusalem when the Jews murdered the Son of God, our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ by insisting on his crucifiction. He was hanged on a cross and crucified like a common criminal, inflicting more pain on Him than the human mind can possibly comprehend. As He bled and suffered, offering no complaint or resistance and instead asking God the Father to “forgive them for their sins”, they continued to scream in a rabid frenzy with hate and rage shouting, “let His blood be upon us and our children”.…
