Charlie Kirk’s killing sparks calls to temper the violent tones of US politics
The killing of Charlie Kirk, a conservative activist and preeminent leader of the young MAGA right, has stirred an outpouring of sorrow and condemnations of political violence from members of both major parties.

He was at the Orem, Utah, campus launching his “American Comeback Tour,” in which he engaged college students across the country in provocative, sometimes fiery political debates.

Atiku hails Hilda Baci for breaking world record with Nigerian Jollof rice
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has extended his congratulations to celebrity chef Hilda Baci and food brand Gino after they entered the record books with the largest serving of Nigerian-style Jollof rice.
Atiku described the accomplishment as more than a culinary milestone, noting that it reflects the ingenuity and determination of Nigerians to excel on the global stage.
He said the recognition is “yet another reminder that our people can break records, set standards, and inspire the world,” adding that such achievements continue to strengthen national pride.
The record-breaking event has further spotlighted Nigerian Jollof, a dish long celebrated across West Africa, and placed it on an international platform through the efforts of Baci and her collaborators.

Document contradicts Wike’s claim, confirms PDP NEC invitation
The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has revealed that he was not invited to the National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Death of two female councillors not political – Lagos APC
The Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has rejected claims linking the recent deaths of two female councillors in the state to politics, describing such suggestions as baseless and insensitive.
The deceased councillors are Oluwakemi Rufai, who represented Ward C1 in Ibeju-Lekki Local Government Area, and Zainab Shotayo, the only female councillor in Odiolowo-Ojuwoye Local Council Development Area, Ilupeju. Both women died within the same week, less than a month after taking office, sparking public speculation about possible political undertones.
Responding to the insinuations, the Lagos APC spokesperson, Seye Oladejo, cautioned against spreading misinformation and politicising the deaths.
He said: “It was reported that they were indisposed. Their deaths had nothing to do with politics. Wherever such insinuations are coming from demeans humanity if properly considered. Death is inevitable, and it can occur at any...
By ‘focusing on the family,’ James Dobson helped propel US evangelicals back into politics
(The Conversation) — For decades, one name was ubiquitous in American evangelical homes: Focus on the Family. A media empire with millions of listeners and readers, its messages about parenting, marriage and politics seemed to reach every conservative Christian church and school.
And one man’s name was nearly synonymous with Focus on the Family: James Dobson.
Dobson, a primary figure of the Religious Right who died on Aug. 21, 2025, was born in 1936, when conservative Protestant Christianity was a far cry from what it is today. As a sociologist of religion who has studied American evangelicalism for 30 years, I believe Dobson’s influence and moral authority were instrumental in transforming the Religious Right into the powerful cultural and political force it has been for half a century.A household nameDobson earned a doctorate in psychology from the...
