Today's Headlines: Why I Visited UK - Tinubu; Lai Mohammed Sues Publisher, Demands N5bn


Bola Tinubu, the former governor of Lagos State, has stated that his trip to the United Kingdom was not for medical reasons.

After a 10-day absence, the national head of the All Progressives Congress (APC) returned to Nigeria on Sunday.



On his social media channels, he made a brief remark. The public was informed on Monday morning that the trip was about the 2023 election.

The presidential candidate conducted "consultations with Nigerians and other stakeholders in the diaspora," according to the report.

"Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu pledged to keep consulting following his plan to run for President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria," the statement stated.

Tinubu's abroad visits, which have been more regular in recent years, have alarmed a wide range of Nigerians.

Last year, the lawmaker spent nearly three months in London due to health reasons. President Muhammadu Buhari and other dignitaries paid him a visit.

According to Tinubu's media office, he had surgery on his right knee and underwent "rigorous post-surgical physiotherapy."

Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the Minister of Information and Culture, has taken an online publisher, Jackson Ude, to a Federal Capital Territory High Court in Abuja for alleged libellous publication.


The minister joined the editor of the journal, Uduma Mba, as a second defendant in the complaint filed by his lawyer, Taofeek Yahaya.


The plaintiff is demanding N50 billion in damages in a writ of summons signed by his counsel and dated January 21, 2022.

Journalists in Abuja received a copy of the court process on Sunday.

General Abdulsalami Abubakar, Nigeria's ex-military head of state, has claimed that the country does not require "walking stick leaders," and that the younger generation should be given space and opportunity to run the country.


He spoke at his hilltop country residence, Minna, over the weekend, when a presidential candidate, Prince Adewale Adebayo, paid him a consultation ahead of the 2023 general election.


The former leader reasoned that, in comparison to their time, governance has gone digital, and that the younger generation, who understands the times, will benefit society more than the old, whose attitudes were not consistent with modern realities.

Rotimi Akeredolu, the governor of Ondo State, has stated that education remains one of his administration's top objectives and that he will not relent in ensuring that the sector receives the best possible treatment.


He said that since the start of his government, 600 schools had been refurbished to improve the learning standards of students in the Sunshine State.


This was expressed by Akeredolu at the Akoko Anglican Grammar School's diamond jubilee celebration in Arigidi-Akoko, Akoko North-West Local Government Area of Ondo State. The event was organized by the school's old students group.
