In Iran, hundreds gathered on Sunday, to pray for the country’s president, Ebrahim Raisi, who died in a helicopter crash alongside the country’s foreign minister in the mountainous northwest. World leaders including india’s prime minster narendra mordi has paid tribute to the 63 year old, who was a hard-line protégé of the country’s supreme leader ‘Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and had been seen as a possible successor.

The media in the United Kingdom have continued to share disparaging views about the three day visit of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Prince Harry and Meghan Marke to Nigeria.

Last week a royal commentator Christopher Wilson in an attempt to denigrate the royal’s visit, compared Nigeria to Nazi Germany, eliciting a wave of criticism. Lizzy Cundy a broadcaster and commentator with GBN – Britain’s news channel described their visit as a fake royal tour, stating that they embarked on the visit to rattle the cage of King Charles, while describing Nigeria as a country riddled with horrific human rights abuses.

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar over the weekend, said that he will support the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, in the 2023 elections Peter Obi, if the PDP decides to zone the presidential ticket to the South or South-East in 2027.

Atiku made the comment during an interview with BBC Hausa Service on its Facebook page on Friday, May 17th. Atiku also confirmed the meeting he had with Peter Obi last week, stating that it was a normal friendly meeting, which was healthy for Nigeria’s democracy while admitting a possibility of a merger.

Peter Obi on Sunday visited victims of the Kano mosque attack who were receiving treatment at the Murtala Mohammed hospital in the State.

The victims were recovering from a Petrol bomb attack, ignited by Shafi’u Abubakar, a 38 year old resident of Gezawa Local Government Area of State, who set the mosque on fire during early morning prayers, after a dispute with the worshippers.

Peter Obi, in a post on X, said the incident served as a stark reminder of the importance of promoting peace, tolerance, and understanding in the society. In Benin City Edo state, the Oba of Benin, Oba Ewuare II over the weekend danced to the songs of his forebears when he received two artefacts from Germany, through the National Commission for Museum and Monument. The national treasures include a wooden and bronze stools said to have been used in the 15th and 17th centuries.

The artefacts were looted by the British during their invasion of the Benin palace in 1897. American rapper, Sean Diddy Combs has admitted to assaulting his former girlfriend, Cassie Ventura. His confession comes after a very disturbing hotel surveillance video, dated March 5, 2016, surfaced showing Diddy kicking, hitting, and dragging Cassie.

In a statement, the LA district attorney’s office said Diddy would not be charged with assault because the attack is now beyond the timeline where a crime of assault can be prosecuted. Amid public backlash over the matter, Diddy in a post on instagram released a monologue where he apologized for the incident.
