 Türkiye is planning to establish local defence production facilities and military training centres in Nigeria as part of efforts to strengthen security cooperation and increase bilateral trade to $5 billion. Turkish Ambassador to Nigeria, Mehmet Poroy, disclosed this on Monday in Abuja, saying the proposed facilities would enable Türkiye to support local military equipment production rather than simply supplying weapons and equipment. He also revealed that 200 Nigerian special forces personnel were undergoing a two-month training programme in Türkiye, with plans underway to establish a similar facility in Nigeria. “We are planning to have some local production unit also in that context, not only selling to Nigeria the tools, equipment, the arms that it needs, but also the possibility of having local production here in Nigeria,” Poroy said. On trade, the ambassador said bilateral trade currently stood at approximately $2 billion, including oil and gas, but both countries were targe...

 Suspect arrested after Virginia State University shooting leaves 5 wounded, police say

A 19-year-old man has been arrested in connection with a shooting at Virginia State University that injured five people early Saturday, including one who remains in critical condition.

Chesterfield County police said Camron Harris of Henrico, Virginia, was found hiding in a closet inside Seward Hall, a campus residence hall, around 4 p.m. Saturday. His arrest came more than 12 hours after the shooting was reported. Harris is not a student at the university.

Harris was taken to the Chesterfield County Jail, where authorities obtained eight felony warrants against him. The charges include four counts of malicious wounding and four counts of using a firearm in the commission of a felony. He is being held without bond.

The shooting happened shortly before 1:30 a.m. outside the university's residence halls, prompting officials to place the campus under lockdown. The lockdown was later lifted, although police maintained a significant presence as investigators processed the scene.

A 20-year-old Virginia State student was among those wounded. The student suffered non-life-threatening injuries and was released from the hospital. The other four victims are not affiliated with the university, police said.

A 21-year-old man who was initially reported to have life-threatening injuries was later upgraded to critical condition. The remaining victims were identified as a 23-year-old man, a 19-year-old woman and a 17-year-old.

The university said additional police officers would remain on campus while the investigation continues. Students were urged to monitor their university email for updated safety information and available support services.

Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger expressed support for those injured and the broader university community, while thanking first responders and law enforcement officers who responded to the shooting.

Sen. Mark Warner also expressed concern for the victims and the Virginia State community, calling the shooting another devastating instance of gun violence affecting a Virginia campus.

Chesterfield County police are leading the investigation with assistance from Virginia State University Police, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and the Hanover County Sheriff's Office.
