February 13 2017

According to reports, US President Donald Trump will today speak to President Muhammadu Buhari of Nigeria and President Jacob Zuma of South Africa.
President of the United States of America, Donald Trump will speak with President Muhammadu Buhari Monday afternoon.

Geoffrey York, who is the Africa correspondent for The Globe disclosed this via his twitter page.


He said Donald Trump will be speaking to Buhari in respect of celebration of Africa day.

On his twitter page @Geoffreyyork, he wrote: “Today is “Africa day” for Donald Trump. He speaks by phone to Nigerian president Buhari at 3:45 pm (Lagos time); then speaks to Jacob Zuma.

“Trump is scheduled to speak by phone to Zuma today at 5:10 pm, after speaking to Buhari first.

“Buhari’s phone call with Trump today will be fascinating; many Nigerians frustrated that Buhari has been gone from Nigeria for over 3 weeks.


“Nigerians, having heard almost nothing from Buhari for 24 days, are wondering how Donald Trump will even locate him for the phone call today,” he wrote.Image result for buhari

Here are other likely things the two leaders may discuss, as compiled by Nigerian Bulletin.


1. Boko Haram: The several attacks by Boko Haram terrorists in North East Nigeria may also constitute what the conversation will be about. US President will want to know what the efforts of the government have been, and how the US can be of help to curb violence. Recall that President Trump in his inaugural speech said his Presidency will eradicate Islamic terrorism from the face of the earth.

2. IPOB: The Indigenous People of Biafra have staged several protests both in Nigeria, and the United States, calling for the intervention of US President Trump to secure release of their leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu from detention for treasonable felony. This could make up what the two leaders will discuss.

3. Nigeria-US Relations: The bilateral relations between the Federal Republic of Nigeria and the United States of America are very strong. They have long been close allies. The United States is Nigeria’s greatest trading partner and is undeniably its most important diplomatic partner.

4. Chibok Girls: At a news conference in Abuja in June 2014, a United States Congressional Delegation consisting of Steve Stockman, Sheila Jackson-Lee, Frederica Wilson and Lois Frankel indicated that US troops were ready to assist in the search for the missing girls of the Chibok schoolgirl kidnapping. An interdisciplinary US team was also sent to assist the Nigerian military. Donald Trump may be ready to support Nigerian army in negotiating or finding an appropriate way on getting the remaining girls out of Boko Haram terrorists captive.

5. Nigerian Economy: Nigerian economy is currently in recession, and with dwindling oil prices. How the Economy has fared, and the measures so far by the Nigerian government may make up the call.

KILLER DUBBED "A KNOWN HANNIBAL LECTER" SET TO PLEAD GUILTY

By

Casey Pigge is shown in an undated photo provided by the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction. An investigative report by the Dayton Daily News has found that the strangulation of an inmate on an Ohio prison bus by Pigge, a twice convicted murderer, was preventable. After Casey Pigge was taken into custody last year for using a brick to kill his cellmate by repeatedly smashing his head, he made one thing clear to investigators. "Pigge denied any desire to be a serial killer, but could not promise that he wouldn't kill again," a prison social worker said after interviewing him. On Feb. 1, just two days after pleading guilty to beating cellmate Luther Wade to death, Pigge was placed in a prison transport van with several other inmates. As the bus headed south through Pickaway County in central Ohio, investigators say, Pigge used a chain meant to restrain him around the stomach to strangle inmate David Johnson. "I guess you never seen that on a bus before,...
