NEWS : Trump aides say Giuliani is angling for a pardon,

Giuliani did not respond to a request for comment Sunday afternoon. It was unclear why the president disclosed Giuliani’s condition — or whether he’d asked for Giuliani’s permission.

In recent weeks, Giuliani has taken over the president’s legal efforts, with other campaign lawyers and aides sidelined and mocking his approach. He has had little luck in court, but Trump has appreciated his vociferous defenses on television. Some Trump aides say Giuliani is angling for a pardon, but he has denied it. He so far has not been paid but has sought $20,000 a day, advisers said, speaking on the condition of anonymity to describe private conversations.

As he has led the efforts to challenge Biden’s win, Giuliani has been flying around the country with Trump campaign senior legal adviser Jenna Ellis, regularly not wearing a mask in public.

 Ellis wished Giuliani well Sunday night and said the Trump legal team’s efforts will continue apace.

“Prayers for Mayor @RudyGiuliani,” she said in a tweet. “He is a tough warrior! The Trump Legal Team will continue our important work to fight for election integrity! We have a great team, along with able local counsel in each state. Our work won’t be affected and we press on.”

When he has been around others who have tested positive, Giuliani has not quarantined, including after a news conference last month at the Republican National Committee’s headquarters when his son tested positive.

Giuliani has shared the president’s skepticism of the virus’s severity and has regularly met closely with others indoors.

Early in the pandemic, he told a Washington Post reporter that he was around only six or eight people regularly.

Nnamdi Kanu Sends Important Message To IPOB Members From Detention

    The detained leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, has sent an important message to his followers over the Biafra movement. The embattled separatist according to one of his brothers, Prince Kanu Meme, has asked his disciples to trust and comply with directives from the Directorate of State (DOS). Boasting his belief in the separatist movement’s administrative structure, Kanu said “I’m DOS and DOS is me”.  Naija News understands that the DOS, headed by diaspora-based Chika Edoziem has been contending with authority issues since Kanu’s arrest in Kenya in June 2021. It has been observed that IPOB is in disintegration following Nnamdi Kanu’s rearrest and detention. The present situation of the Biafran movement can be likened to that of sheep without a shepherd. However, Kanu in a conversation with his sib...

IPOB: The Nigerian Civil War, commonly known as the Biafran War

  THE HISTORY OF BIAFRA AND NIGERIA WAR  Israel, Nigeria and the Biafra civil war    The Nigerian Civil War , commonly known as the Biafran War (6 July 1967 – 15 January 1970), was a war fought between the government of Nigeria and the secessionist state of Biafra. Biafra represented nationalist aspirations of the Igbo people, whose leadership felt they could no longer coexist with the Northern-dominated federal government. The conflict resulted from political, economic, ethnic, cultural and religious tensions which preceded Britain's formal decolonization of Nigeria from 1960 to 1963. Immediate causes of the war in 1966 included a military coup, a counter-coup and persecution of Igbo living in Northern Nigeria. Control over the lucrative oil production in the Niger Delta played a vital strategic role. Within a year, the Federal Government troops surrounded Biafra, capturing coastal oil facilities and the city of Port Harcourt. The blockade imp...
