 STATEHOUSE PRESS STATEMENT PRESIDENT TINUBU'S MESSAGE OF CONDOLENCE TO CHIMAMANDA ADICHIE AND HER FAMILY   With a deep sense of grief, I condole with Ms Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, her husband, Dr Ivara Esege, and the entire family on the passing of their son, Nkanu Nnamdi.   As a parent myself who has suffered the loss of a loved one, no grief is as devastating as losing a child.   I empathise with the family at this difficult time, and I mourn this sad loss with them.   Ms Adichie is a literary icon who has brought joy and light to many homes globally, and I pray she and her family find strength in the Almighty in this trying hour.   My prayers are with the family.   Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces Federal Republic of Nigeria January 8, 2026

RAIN HAMPERS RESCUE WORK IN INDIA'S KERALA AS LANDSLIDES' DEATH TOLL RISES.(PHOTO).


 Rain hampers rescue work in India’s Kerala as landslides’ death toll rises.


Hopes of finding survivors fade as rescuers sift through slush and rocks and pull bodies from debris in southern Indian state of Kerala.  Hopes of finding more than 180 missing people alive waned as rescue workers searched through mud and debris after landslides set off by torrential rains killed at least 194 people in southern India..


The rescue work was challenging in a forested, hilly area while more rain fell on Thursday, said PM Manoj, a spokesman for Kerala state’s top elected official. Nearly 40 bodies were found downstream after being swept some 30km (20 miles) down the Chaliyar river from the area in Wayanad district where the main landslides occurred. Body parts were also recovered..


Torrents of mud and water swept through tea estates and villages in hilly areas in the district early on Tuesday. They flattened houses and destroyed bridges, and rescuers had to pull out people stuck under mud and debris..


Manoj said 187 people were unaccounted for as of Thursday. In addition to the dead and missing, 186 people were injured. Local media reported most of the victims were tea estate workers..


More than 5,500 people have been rescued, the government said, with some 1,100 rescue personnel, helicopters and heavy equipment involved in the operations..
