 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

 Pope opens 2026 with plea for peace in war-torn nations and families scarred by violence

 Pope Leo XIV began 2026 on Thursday with an urgent call for peace, highlighting countries torn by war and families suffering from violence.

He celebrated New Year’s Day Mass at St. Peter’s Basilica before delivering a noon prayer from his studio overlooking the piazza, where pilgrims and tourists gathered on a bright, chilly morning. Marking the church’s World Day of Peace, Leo urged the faithful to unite in prayer. “Let us all pray together for peace: first, among nations bloodied by conflict and suffering, but also within our homes, in families wounded by violence or pain,” he said.

Following the busy Christmas season, the pope will take a few days of rest before leading celebrations for the Epiphany on Jan. 6, which will also mark the official close of the 2025 Holy Year—a once-in-a-quarter-century event that drew millions of pilgrims to Rome. Immediately afterward, Leo will preside over a two-day gathering of the College of Cardinals, including those over 80 who did not participate in the conclave. The meeting revives a practice largely avoided by Pope Francis, bringing cardinals together periodically to offer guidance on managing the affairs of the 1.4 billion-member Catholic Church.
