 North Korea fired several ballistic missiles into the sea Monday, South Korea’s military said, hours after South Korean and U.S. troops kicked off their large annual combined drills, which the North views as an invasion rehearsal.  South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff said the missile firings, North Korea’s fifth missile launch event this year, were detected from the North’s Hwanghae province but gave no further details such as how far they flew.  Earlier Monday, the South Korean and U.S. militaries began their annual joint military exercises, which are scheduled to last 11 days. The Freedom Shield command post exercise began after the South Korean and U.S. militaries paused live-fire training while Seoul investigates how two of its fighter jets mistakenly bombed a civilian area during a warm-up drill last week.  The drills' start drew the condemnation of nuclear-armed North Korea, which issued a government statement calling the exercises a “dangerous provocative act...

Don’t come to FEC meeting unless invited, Tinubu warns gov't officials


President Bola Tinubu on Monday warned government officials and family members against attending the Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting without invitation.


Tinubu issued the warning before the commencement of the FEC meeting at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.


“Last week, I noticed people sneaking in and out of this council. People had access to this place when they should not. That is not acceptable.


“I will announce to you here the people who are supposed to be here.


“Hadiza Usman, Special Adviser on Policy Coordination, Bayo Onanuga, Special Adviser on Information and Strategy; Hakeem Muri-Okunola, Principal Private Secretary; and Damilotun Aderemi, Private Secretary.


“These are the people who are granted the exception to be here when we are conducting the business of the nation. Unless I sent for you, don’t come.”


The president directed the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, George Akume, and the Head of Civil Service of the Federation (HCSF), Folashade Yemi-Esan, to take note of his directive.


“Unless they are your staff that are included, no one should have access to the FEC meeting, except I have announced their names to you.


“Let me also say that the planning of an event about the government must be well articulated and followed accurately,” he said.


Tinubu, however, expressed absolute confidence in the integrity of his Chief of Staff, Femi Gbajabiamila.


“There are a lot of stories going around about what is happening. I’ve told everyone in this country that I can make mistakes.


“I have had to hear them out and correct them. Perfection is that of God Almighty. I have absolute confidence in the integrity of my Chief of Staff.


“All the campaigns of calumny and insinuation should stop.”
