 NUT Protest : Wike Warns Against Politicising Insecurity The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has warned against politicising insecurity amid protests by the Nigeria Union of Teachers, FCT wing, over the killing and abduction of school staff and children in Oyo State. Teachers stormed the FCTA Secretariat in Abuja to condemn the killing of Michael Oyedokun and to demand the release of abducted pupils and teachers from Community High School, Ahoro-Esinle in Oriire Local Government Area. The FCT minister addressed the protesters on Tuesday, saying the federal government is on its toes working to secure the rescue of the schoolchildren and their teachers. Wike urged protesters to avoid turning the tragedy into a political issue and to give security efforts time to produce results.

 Rapper 50 Cent says Black men are 'identifying with Trump' over Biden


Rapper 50 Cent said that he believes Black men are identifying with former President Trump over President Biden, in new comments on Wednesday.


The rapper and liquor company owner – whose real name is Curtis James Jackson III – was meeting with lawmakers on Capitol Hill on Wednesday alongside civil rights attorney Ben Crump, to discuss representation for Black entrepreneurs in the liquor industry and initiatives to bridge the wealth gap, CBS News reported.


Jackson, who voiced support for Trump earlier this year, was asked about which candidate he was backing in the 2024 election.


Jackson said that he hadn't made up his mind about who he was voting for yet. However, he told CBS News congressional correspondent Nikole Killion that he believed Black men were "identifying with Trump" because "they've got RICO charges [too]."


The former president, who was found guilty in a New York City court last week on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records, also faces one RICO violation charge in Georgia in a separate case related to 2020 election interference.


Trump and his allies have criticized the charges and conviction as a "scam" and politically motivated.


This isn't the first time the "In da Club" rapper has stirred up controversy with his comments about Trump.


In March, he candidly admitted that he thought Trump would win the November election.


"I think Trump's gonna be president again, but I’m not gonna say that," he predicted.


In February, the rapper also reacted with outrage to a new plan backed by New York City Mayor Eric Adams to give migrant families in NYC prepaid credit cards. Jackson suggested the move might even push him to support Trump.


"Maybe Trump is the answer," he wrote on Instagram.


In 2020, 50 Cent briefly endorsed Trump for president in a profanity-laced social media post slamming then-Presidential candidate Biden's tax plan.


"WHAT THE F---! (VOTE ForTRUMP) IM OUT. F--- NEW YORK The KNICKS never win anyway. I don’t care Trump doesn’t like Black people 62% are you out of ya f------ mind," he wrote at the time on Instagram.


Several days after that post, however, Jackson III recanted his support for Trump.
