Saudi Arabia Slams US Senate Vote As ‘Interference’ Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia Mohammed bin Salman Al-Saud/ AFP Saudi Arabia on Monday slammed as “interference” US Senate resolutions over its war in Yemen and critic Jamal Khashoggi’s murder, warning that the move could have repercussions on its strategic ties with Washington. The Republican-controlled Senate voted on Thursday to end American military support for a Riyadh-led war in Yemen, and separately held Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman responsible for Khashoggi’s killing. The largely symbolic vote dealt a fresh warning to President Donald Trump, who has staunchly backed the Saudi regime in the face of intense global outrage that analysts say has left the kingdom diplomatically weakened. “The kingdom condemns the latest position of the US Senate that was based on unsubstantiated allegations and rejects the blatant interference in its internal affairs,” the foreign ministry said in a statement releas

Buhari at 76: Why we love this President [ Update Vanguard ] By Femi Adesina ‘That’s him, that’s him,” the two old women, wrinkled and bent with age, exclaimed. You could see wonderment and fulfillment in their eyes. And as if on cue, they both began to cry. President Buhari It was in Bauchi earlier this year. President Muhammadu Buhari was visiting to commiserate with the people on the ravages of windstorm, which had destroyed many homes and other property. As he waved at the tumultuous crowd, the two women saw him, perhaps for the first time in their lives. And so great was their satisfaction, their pure joy, that they began to cry. That is the kind of emotion that courses through millions and millions of Nigerians when they behold their President, the honest man (mai gaskiya), the man of integrity, man of accountability, one who’s word you can take to the bank.

Amosun, Okorocha, Yari and others as APC fall guys [FILE PHOTO] President Buhari andImo state governro, Okorocha Rochas There is no gainsaying the fact that governors Ibikunle Amosun (Ogun), Rochas Okorocha (Imo) and Abdul Aziz Yari (Zamfara) and some others like them have a special or, in fact, filial relationship with President Muhammadu Buhari, who is also the totem or symbolic aggregation of the values of the All Progressives Congress (APC). Apart from the fact that these governors themselves symbolically represent a fair spread of the geo-social and political tendencies of the country, they owe their present offices to the magnetic pull of the APC presidential candidate in 2015. Virtually every contestant under the flag of the APC was seen in the mould of Buhari or as a veritable tool for the achievement of the party’s promised magic, even as Buhari was its alter ego or ultimate personification.
