NIGERIA 2023 – BOLA TINUBU TO SPEAK AT THE PRESTIGIOUS CHATHAM HOUSE

PUSH NEWS 24 INTERNATIONAL: November 28th, 2022

Push News 24 International reports and confirms that the National leader of the ruling All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu is billed to speak on December 5th, 2022, 1pm – 2pm at the Chatham House on the topic , Nigeria’s 2023 elections: Security, economic and foreign policy imperatives

Chatham House, the Royal Institute of International Affairs, is an independent policy institute based in London. Our mission is to help build a sustainably secure, prosperous and just world.

Nigeria is scheduled to hold presidential and national assembly elections on 25 February 2023 as well as governorship and other subnational elections on 11 March 2023.

The elections will end President Muhammadu Buhari’s two terms in office since his election in 2015 and will mark the first time that he is not engaging in a presidential poll since Nigeria’s transition to civilian rule in 1999 – an important marker in Nigeria’s trajectory of democratic consolidation.

Nigeria’s recently enacted Electoral Act has contributed to improved hope around the election process, reflected in the addition of 12.29 million new voters in Nigeria’s voter registration exercise across the federation’s 36 states and 1,491 constituencies.

Yet Nigeria stands at a critical juncture, having suffered from two recessions in the past six years, unprecedented levels of food insecurity, persistent fuel scarcity and high levels of crude oil theft.

Civic fatigue also remains an important challenge and President Muhammadu Buhari’s three main policy pillars of security, economy and corruption continue to be defining issues for citizens.

At this event, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, presidential candidate for the All-Progressives Congress, discusses his vision and recently unveiled manifesto for ‘renewing hope’ in Nigeria including his policy proposals for economic reform and revival and how to deliver secure and inclusive job opportunities for Nigerian citizens.

Push News 24 International reports that this event is part of a series of events and outputs examining Nigeria’s 2023 elections and political developments.

Chatham House is a world-famous think tank whose ideas help answer the big questions that are shaping our world, addressing issues like climate change, fake news, and conflict. Students will be able to interact with world-leading experts on international affairs and gain an insight into careers within the charity and not-for-profit sector as a whole during their open day.

$6M EMAIL FRAUD – FBI LIST NIGERIAN BORN OGUNSAKIN ON WANTED LIST DECLARES HIM INTERNATIONAL FLIGHT RISK

PUSH NEWS 24 INTERNATIONAL: November 28th, 2022

$6M EMAIL FRAUD – FBI LIST NIGERIAN BORN OGUNSAKIN ON WANTED LIST DECLARES HIM INTERNATIONAL FLIGHT RISK

Nigerian, Alex Afolabi Ogunsakin born on February 23, 1983 believed to currently living in Nigeria has been list by the FBI as one of the most wanted by the US government on allegations bordering around Business Email Compromise fraud schemes.

The United States Department of Justice, also known as the Justice Department, is a federal executive department of the United States government tasked with the enforcement of federal law and administration of justice in the United States.

Alex Afolabi Ogunshakin is wanted for his alleged involvement in a Business Email Compromise (BEC) scheme that defrauded over 70 different businesses in the United States resulting in combined losses of over $6,000,000 USD.

Ogunshakin allegedly provided bank accounts to Richard Izuchukwu Uzuh, and other co-conspirators Felix Osilama Okpoh, Abiola Ayorinde Kayode, and Nnamdi Orson Benson, that were used to receive fraudulent wire transfers. Ogunshakin allegedly also assisted in these schemes by sending spoofed emails to businesses used to solicit fraudulent wire transfers. Ogunshakin allegedly later conducted his own BEC schemes, learning from Uzuh and others. On August 21, 2019, Ogunshakin was indicted in the United States District Court, District of Nebraska, Omaha, Nebraska, on charges of Conspiracy to Commit Wire Fraud. On August 22, 2019, a federal warrant was issued for his arrest.

Business email compromise (BEC)—also known as email account compromise (EAC)—is one of the most financially damaging online crimes. It exploits the fact that so many of us rely on email to conduct business—both personal and professional.

In a BEC scam, criminals send an email message that appears to come from a known source making a legitimate request.

Sanusi aka PLS, has told members of his constituents, to get their voter’s card as a proof of their support for his aspirations and vote en-masse in the 2023 general elections.

This position followed the open declaration of support to PLS for Amuwo-Odofin Federal Constituency in his Constituency office by some Community stakeholders from Constituency 2 , Oriade LCDA.

According to the Lagos Prince, “I appeal to you all to go and collect your voter’s cards. There is still opportunity to do so. This is the only power to further prove your support for us particularly, in the next election.“

“As said by your chairman, we are here and aspiring to the Green Chamber for the interest of all and nothing will stop us from putting the welfare and well-being of our people on the front burner,” PLS said.

Commending the leadership and members of the group, for the open show of support for his aspirations, Sanusi, however, assured them that his term as a law maker would continue to see investments in human and infrastructure development for the benefits of different associations and residents of Amuwo Odofin Federal Constituency.

His words:” “I am extremely happy today that a notable group like yours could come out publicly to endorse my candidacy. It is always a thing of joy for people to appreciate your little effort. I commend you all for the initiative”.

“I am assuring you that we will do more than what we have said. We will make and propose laws that will change the face of infrastructure in Amuwo Odofin Federal Constituency and ensure improved standard of living for all”.

“Our legislative trust is committed to making life easier for all, and that is why we have been running an all-inclusive, participatory campaign team for all as reflected in the successes we have recorded so far in our campaigns. We have seen your commitments, support and cooperation so far, and I am assuring you that soon, God will crown our efforts“.

“We will leave no stone unturned to strengthen the existing synergy to bring about more success and dividends of democracy. I believe strongly that majority of your people are for us as this informed today’s collective decision to endorse us for Amuwo Odofin Federal Constituency. I am assuring you once again that you will not regret taking this action,” PLS said.

Push News 24 International reports that, earlier, while declaring support for the governor, the Group described PLS as a man of extraordinary dexterity, and that his professional experiences and global exposures were the motivation for their support and open endorsement.

PLS, however, called on all stakeholders at the meetings to prove that they were serious about their open endorsement, by getting their voter’s registration cards and turning out in large numbers to vote on the election date.

OVER 600 MASS SHOOTINGS RECORDED IN US SOFAR IN 2022 AS FAMILIES FEAR FOR THEIR SAFETY

PUSH NEWS NEWS 24 INTERNATIONAL: November 23rd, 2022

There have been more than 600 mass shootings so far this year in the United States, according to the Gun Violence Archive.

Mass shootings, as is well known by now, are a common recurrence in the United States. We ended 2021 with 690 mass shootings, per the Gun Violence Archive. The year before saw 611. And 2019 had 417.

The massacres don’t come out of nowhere, says Mark Follman, who has been researching mass shootings since 2012, when a gunman killed 12 people at a movie theater in Aurora, Colo.

“This is planned violence. There is, in every one of these cases, always a trail of … behavioral warning signs,” he told NPR in May.

Follman, the author of a new book, Trigger Points, says the role of mental health is also widely misunderstood.

“The general public views mass shooters as people who are totally crazy, insane. It fits with the idea of snapping, as if these people are totally detached from reality.”

That’s not the case, he said. There’s “a very rational thought process” that goes into planning and carrying out mass shootings.

The suspect in the Uvalde attack was a high school student who bought at least two AR-15-style rifles shortly after his 18th birthday and shot his grandmother before going to the elementary school, officials said.

A shooter opened fire late Tuesday at a Walmart in the Tidewater area of Virginia, killing five people. The attack comes days after five people were killed and 18 more injured in a shooting at Club Q, an LGBTQ club in Colorado Springs, and about a week after a shooting at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville left three dead.

Mass shootings — where four or more people, not including the shooter, are injured or killed — have averaged more than one per day so far this year. Not a single week in 2022 has passed without at least four mass shootings.

Mass shootings have been on the rise in recent years. In 2021, almost 700 such incidents occurred, a jump from the 610 in 2020 and 417 in 2019. Before that, incidents had not topped 400 annually since the Gun Violence Archive started tracking in 2014.

2022 is close behind the high reached last year when comparing the same time period.

The toll is immense. Mass shootings have killed 635 people and injured 2,540 more through November 22nd.

“Politics is no do-or-die affair and winners and losers should embrace each other for the growth of humanity and the society,” he said.
