Sean Strickland forcibly removed from UFC White House event by Secret Service UFC Middleweight Champion Sean Strickland was removed from the UFC Freedom 250 Fan Fest at the Ellipse in Washington, D.C., after showing up despite claiming he had been excluded from the White House event.  Strickland later clarified on Instagram that he was not arrested but suggested he might face a disorderly conduct charge, which in D.C. carries penalties of up to 90 days in jail or a $500 fine.  His presence drew immediate hostility from the pro-Trump crowd, with chants of “USA” erupting before Secret Service agents escorted him out.

SAUDI ARABIA HAS BEEN KIND TO US, SAYS PRESIDENT BUHARI IN MEETING WITH SAUDI MINISTER.{PHOTO}.#PRESS RELEASE.

President Muhammadu Buhari Tuesday played host to the Saudi Arabian Minister of Foreign Affairs at State House, Abuja, declaring that the oil rich kingdom has been quite kind to Nigeria.

President Buhari noted that the relationship between the two countries is very strong, “and dates back in time, both at the personal and national levels.” 

“It is long and steadfast,” the President added. 

Prince Al-Saud brought greetings from King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al-Saud, saying the Kingdom appreciates the relationship with Nigeria, “which dates back 61 years, and we want to strengthen it even further.”

“There’s still a lot we can do together,” the Prince submitted.
