 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

 Stuck astronaut Butch Wilmore retires from NASA less than five months after long space mission

Butch Wilmore, one of NASA’s two astronauts who experienced an unexpected extended space mission, has retired from the agency less than five months after returning to Earth. NASA confirmed Wilmore’s departure on Wednesday.

Wilmore and fellow astronaut Suni Williams launched last summer aboard Boeing’s first crewed flight, which was initially planned as a weeklong visit to the International Space Station. However, the mission stretched to over nine months due to Boeing’s Starliner spacecraft malfunctioning and returning empty. Wilmore and Williams ultimately returned to Earth in March aboard a SpaceX capsule.

Wilmore, 62, had previously retired from the Navy. Williams, 59, also a retired Navy captain, remains with NASA and recently participated in a summer reading event at the Johnson Space Center in Houston. Selected as an astronaut in 2000, Wilmore completed three missions totaling 464 days in orbit, with his last mission alone accounting for 286 days — nearly two-thirds of his career time in space. NASA’s chief astronaut, Joe Acaba, praised Wilmore’s technical skill and dedication, expressing confidence that he will continue to excel in his next endeavors.
