Global stocks sank Wednesday after US President Donald Trump said he was not satisfied with talks that are aimed at averting a trade war with China. Equities were also dented by poor eurozone economic data, and as Trump cast doubt on a planned summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. “Trump (is) continuing to drive uncertainty over global trade,” said analyst Joshua Mahony at trading firm IG. “European markets are following their Asian counterparts lower, as a pessimistic tone from Trump is compounded by downbeat economic data,” he added. Markets had surged Monday after US Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and Chinese Vice Premier Liu He said they had agreed to pull back from imposing threatened tariffs on billions of dollars of goods, and continue talks on a variety of trade issues. However, Trump has declared that he was “not satisfied” with the status of the talks, fuelling worries that the world’s top two economies could still slug out an economically pain...
Presidential aide on social media, Lauretta Onochie has lashed out on Femi Fani-Kayode, former aviation minister, for describing President Muhammadu Buhari as a “closet radical Islamist and Christian-hating mass murderer and salafist.”
Fani-Kayode on Sunday, October 22, shared a tweet where he said President Buhari was and I quote; “Christian-hating mass murderer.” Reacting through her Twitter handle, Onochie asked the former minister to get a life since the IPOB he was allegedly using as a tool to fight the government was no more.
Sharing Fani-Kayode’s post, she tweeted:
“There’s life after IPOB. get a life, Femi Fani-Kayode! “Igbo traditional leaders, south east governors, Igbo opinion leaders and even His Royal Cluelessness, ex-pres. Goodluck Jonathan, have all denounced your boy, Nnamdi Kanu and his idea of Biafra.
“It’s over. Go to rehab, clean up and get a life. Thank you. You are a Christian. Your are also a criminal.”
Editor's Note:
Frankly, I am indeed disappointed of how Nigeria government has degenerated to this kind of stupidity. Even if former government officials are bent on throwing tantrums, (which is what they are suppose to do as opposition parties) does that make the incumbent government stupid?
How can this lady be insulting an ex president of this country Goodluck Jonathan officially? Yes he can be insulted on social media and other places by the citizens but not through official channels and her words are too harsh. She can insult FFK, I don't care but an ex president? He is not his mate for God sake.
What do you think guys?
