  Oshiomhole Convinced Us To Make Obaseki Governor – Philip Shaibu Philip Shaibu, the former Deputy Governor of Edo State, has disclosed that his choice to support his former boss, Godwin Obaseki, stemmed from his respect for Adams Oshiomhole, the former National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC). According to Naija News, Shaibu shared his doubts about Obaseki during an interview on Channels Television’s Political Paradigm program on Tuesday. Shaibu admitted that he lacked confidence in Obaseki's leadership even before they took office on November 12, 2016. He explained that despite his initial hesitations, he ultimately backed Obaseki out of respect and based on the assurances provided by Oshiomhole. He stated, “Obaseki is not a politician. We made him governor because Oshiomhole persuaded us. I was not among those who thought he should not be governor; it was because I didn’t have faith in him. “When he was nominated to run, I was the last person to oppose him, but ...

Russia's Airspace, Airports Closed After Ukraine Drone Hit City Building 

Air-traffic has been reopened at four major airports around the capital - Vnukovo, Domodedovo, Sheremetyevo and Zhukovsky.

Moscow's airspace has been closed after a Ukrainian drone attack on Friday hit a building causing a blast that was heard across the city’s business district, Russian state media agency TASS said.

Russian air defense in a statement said the drone changed it path after it was targeted by air defense weapon and fell on a non-residential building in the Krasnopresnenskaya Embankment area of Moscow on Friday morning. 

The statement reads: "The UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle), after being targeted by air defence weapons, changed its flight path and fell on a non-residential building in the Krasnopresnenskaya Embankment area of Moscow.

"At about 4 am Moscow time, the Kyiv regime launched another terrorist attack using an unmanned aerial vehicle on objects located in Moscow and the Moscow region.”

According to Reuters, Air-traffic has been reopened at four major airports around the capital - Vnukovo, Domodedovo, Sheremetyevo and Zhukovsky.

Russia's air transport agency said seven flights were redirected to alternative airports. 

A witness who was in the area told Reuters it was "a powerful explosion".

Moscow mayor Sergey Sobyanin said on Telegram that "debris of the UAV fell down in the area of Expo centre," he said referring to a large exhibition space in central Moscow, about 3 miles away from the Kremlin. 

It "did not cause any significant damage to the building", he added.

A video published by Russian media outlets showed thick smoke rising next to skyscrapers. 

There has been no immediate comment from Kyiv.

The Russian defence ministry also claimed a separate attempted assault on its Black Sea fleet.

Drone air strikes deep inside Russia have increased since a drone was destroyed over the Kremlin in early May. Civilian areas of the capital were hit later in May and a Moscow business district was targeted twice in three days earlier this month.
