Trump issues pardon to former Republican congressman Stephen Buyer after insider trading conviction    President Donald Trump has issued a full pardon to former Republican congressman Stephen Buyer, who served nearly two years in prison after being convicted of insider trading tied to post-congressional consulting work. Buyer was sentenced in 2023 to 22 months in prison for illegal stock trades made while working as a consultant and lobbyist. He was ordered to forfeit more than $350,000 in ill-gotten gains and pay a $10,000 fine. He was released from custody in 2025 after his conviction was upheld, with the Supreme Court declining to take up his appeal earlier this year. In issuing the pardon, Trump described Buyer’s service as a judge advocate general in the U.S. Army and his time in Congress as “distinguished and highly productive.” The pardon, dated Thursday and released by the White House on Friday, grants Buyer “a full, complete, and unconditional pardon.” Buyer has maint...

 Oshiomhole Challenges Abati to ‘Street Fight’ Over TV Comments


Edo North Senator Adams Oshiomhole has called out journalist and former presidential spokesperson Dr. Reuben Abati, challenging him to a physical confrontation following remarks made on a television program that Oshiomhole deemed "disrespectful" and "mischievous."


The dispute stems from a recent TV episode where Abati questioned former Delta State Governor Ifeanyi Okowa about his defection to the All Progressives Congress (APC). Oshiomhole, speaking on Tuesday, took issue with Abati’s suggestion that Okowa needed his permission to join the APC, questioning the journalist’s implication that he holds such authority within the party.


“How can you ask that? What is my status? I am in the legislature. Is the legislature responsible for the prosecution of anyone?” Oshiomhole, a former Edo State governor and Nigeria Labour Congress president, said during an interview.


Without naming Abati directly, Oshiomhole referenced the journalist’s past, including his arrest by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) after serving as spokesperson for former President Goodluck Jonathan. “The man who made that statement was invited by the EFCC after he was Jonathan’s spokesman. Was I the one who granted him bail?” Oshiomhole remarked.


Oshiomhole also criticized Abati for failing to acknowledge his contributions to labor movements, particularly during May Day events. He recalled Abati once referring to him as “Oshiomhole the people’s president” during his NLC tenure, but now downplaying his role. “Rather than crediting me, he said when they leave NLC, they become governors,” Oshiomhole said.


The senator escalated the feud with a direct challenge, referencing Abati’s unsuccessful 2019 run for deputy governor in Ogun State alongside PDP candidate Buruji Kashamu, where they lost to APC’s Dapo Abiodun. “If you are angry because you wanted to be a deputy governor and lost an election, is that why you abuse me? If you want to abuse me, don’t hide behind the TV; let’s meet in the street and fight it out,” Oshiomhole declared.


Abati has not publicly responded to the challenge.
