Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, on Monday, faulted claims that Christians were being killed in Nigeria under the President Bola Tinubu's administration.

The Minister of State for Health, Iziaq Salako, says Nigeria is not yet capable of producing vaccines locally.

Mr Wike had allegedly made the defamatory statements against Mr Cole while on a live broadcast on Channels TV's "Politics Today" on 18 September.

Nigeria continues to struggle in the quest for local vaccine production as procurement of foreign-made vaccines now costs the country billions of Naira.

Shehu Dikko, chairman of the National Sports Commission (NSC), says FIFA manages all its projects "directly" with minimal contribution from the host federation.

This is coming after United States President, Donald Trump, in a post on his Truth Social account, instructed the U.S. War Department to prepare for a possible action in Nigeria.
