Tshisekedi Re-elected As Tinubu Sends Congratulation Message To The Congolese Leader—-President Bola Tinubu has congratulated President Felix Tshisekedi of the Democratic Republic of Congo on his re-election.

Tinubu commended the government and the people of DR Congo for ensuring a successful conduct of the last elections.

This is contained in a statement by Chief Ajuri Ngelale, the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, on Saturday in Abuja.

Tshisekedi, 60, was elected for a second term with 73 per cent of the vote, with his nearest challenger, mining magnate and former provincial governor Moise Katumbi, on 18 per cent.

The President also congratulated the people of DR Congo for deepening democratic norms by exercising their rights without resorting to acts inimical to the sustenance of democracy.

“It is welcoming that the last elections in DR Congo were well-concluded. Democracy is sustainable on the continent. I congratulate President Tshisekedi on his victory.

“The President has demonstrated statesmanship in his handling of regional and continental matters. Africa will overcome any challenge with governance by popular consent, and democracy will thrive,” Tinubu said.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the official turnout in the election was about 43 per cent of the country’s 44 million registered voters.

Tshisekedi will be sworn in for a second term on Jan. 20.

Tinubu wished Tshisekedi a successful term in office.

•Minister Of Power, Adebayo Adelabu WhatsApp Number has been Hacked.

THECLOUDNGR The WhatsApp number of Nigeria’s Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu, has reportedly been hacked, prompting a warning from his spokesperson, Bolaji Tunji.

The announcement was made in a brief notice sent to the Daily Post by Tunji on Thursday night.

Tunji urged Nigerians to ignore any requests for money or financial assistance originating from the compromised phone number, stating, “HM of power number has been hacked on WhatsApp. Kindly disregard any appeal for money or any assistance for financial support through the number 08022901928.”

This incident follows closely on the heels of similar security breaches involving other government officials.

Just six days prior, the WhatsApp number of the Minister of Education, Prof. Tahir Mamman, was hacked, and earlier, the same fate befell the Minister of Sports Development, Senator John Enoh.

TCN recalls that the WhatsApp number of the Governor of Akwa Ibom State, Umo Eno, in August was also hacked by fraudsters, leading to an attempt to defraud several of his contacts.

The incident came to light when some individuals on the governor’s contact list received messages from his WhatsApp number, requesting that money be sent to a specified account with a promise of a refund later.

In a related incident, Osun State Government, in July issued a public alert on the security breach of Governor Ademola Adeleke‘s official telephone number.

Gov Sim Fubara Calls Out IG Of Police, Insist LG Election Must Hold (VIDEO)—-TCN reports that Simanalayi Fubara, the Governor of Rivers State has told the Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun that he would have to shoot him if he tries to stop the local government election coming up in the state on Saturday.

Fubara who spoke angrily in the early hours of today noted that the IGP has been acting unprofessional because of his relationship with ‘One man’ who claims to be in control of Rivers state.

The governor blasted the IGP for attempting to stop election from holding in the state despite the supreme court ruling that said local government chairmen must be elected across every state in Nigeria.

Although there was a court order stopping that stopped INEC from releasing voters register to Rivers state electoral commission, Fubara affirmed that they don’t need voters register and security from the police to conduct the local government election.

He however insisted that the local government election must hold.
