 Serena Williams' husband addresses critics over White House UFC event Alexis Ohanian, husband of tennis star Serena Williams, faced backlash after attending President Trump’s 80th birthday celebration at the White House, which doubled as a UFC event staged by Dana White’s TKO group. The spectacle drew criticism when fighter Josh Hokit used his post-fight interview to make a vile slur about former First Lady Michelle Obama.  Ohanian, who co-founded Reddit and now owns several sports teams, stayed silent for days before finally condemning the remark on social media, insisting he had already left the event when it was made. In his statement, Ohanian explained that he attended at the invitation of UFC’s parent company and emphasized his past decision to resign from Reddit in protest against hate-filled communities.

 In Monguno: Zulum distributes food, agric input to 35,000 families


... Shares N450m, wrappers to 45,000 widows, vulnerable women


Borno State Governor, Babagana Umara Zulum, on Sunday, supervised the distribution of food items and agricultural inputs to over 35,000 male heads of household in Monguno Local Government area in the northern part of the state.


Each of the 35,000 beneficiaries received one bag of 25kg of rice and cowpeas to enable them cultivate their farmlands.


Zulum noted that the rice package was part of the 20 trucks donated by the federal government to the state to alleviate the hardship faced by people due to high cost of food items.


He said, “We are in Monguno town mainly for two functions, first to distribute food items provided to the government of Borno State by the federal government. 20 trucks of rice were given to us, and this morning, we distributed all of them to this community. 


“In addition to this, we have also distributed seeds, as most of them do not have the capacity to buy farm inputs, and we have distributed cowpeas to all the able heads of households,” Zulum said.


“I want also to inform you that the federal government has provided 90 trucks of fertiliser to the state government for free to distribute to our farmers,” Zulum stated.


The governor also expressed gratitude to the federal government for supporting the people of his state. He said, "On behalf of the people of Borno State, I want to appreciate the federal government for this laudable gesture."

Meanwhile, Governor Babagana Umara Zulum also distributed over N450m to 45,000 widows and vulnerable women in Monguno during his Sunday visit.


Governor Zulum said, “We have also distributed N10,000 in cash support and a wrapper to each of the over 45,000 widows and vulnerable women in Monguno town.”


According to the Governor, the distribution of palliative by his administration was not meant to create dependency but to support vulnerable families that have lost their sources of livelihood to the Boko Haram crisis facing Borno State.
