 Atiku pledges scholarship to viral Niger teen miner Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar on Sunday said his “heart breaks” each time he watches a viral video of a teenage artisanal miner, Yusuf Aliyu, speaking at a mining site in Niger State after the deaths of 37 miners in the state. Atiku, in a statement posted on his X handle, said he was prepared to support the boy’s education, describing him as a child whose intelligence and confidence should be nurtured in a classroom rather than by working at a mining site. “I have watched Yusuf Aliyu’s video repeatedly, and each time, my heart breaks.

Passengers removed from plane at DCA after bomb threat


Passengers on a United Airlines flight at Washington, D.C.’s Reagan National Airport were removed from the aircraft after a bomb threat prompted a security response.

The flight, United Airlines 512, landed around 11:30 a.m. and was directed to a runway away from the terminal while authorities investigated the threat, according to the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority. Runways were temporarily closed until all passengers were safely escorted off the plane and transported to the terminal by bus.

Reagan National Airport later announced that the ground stop had been lifted at 12:50 p.m. EST, and flights were resuming. The FBI’s Washington Field Office confirmed that no hazards were found during the investigation.

The FAA reported that the issue had been resolved and downgraded the ground stop to a delay. United Airlines said the flight originated from George Bush Intercontinental Airport with 89 passengers and six crew members onboard. Law enforcement searched the plane and cleared it for return to the gate.
