ABC Apologizes After Claudia Long Fabricates False Claims About Two High-Profile Politicians

The ABC has offered a humble apology following an erroneous accusation made by one of its reporters who falsely implicated two Nationals MPs for neglecting their constituencies during critical times when people are facing life-threatening situations. Claudia Long, the political correspondent for the national broadcaster, stated on "Insiders" last Sunday that National Party members of parliament were absent from their constituencies when the decision was made to dissolve the Coalition. "I believe another crucial aspect for regional areas is having a local representative present during times of crisis, such as floods where lives are lost—this situation occurred earlier this week," she explained to the show.

Tinubu Heads to France for Second Anniversary Review of Economic Reforms

On Wednesday, President Bola Tinubu left for Paris, France, beginning a "two-week working visit."

"During the visit, the President will evaluate his administration’s progress at the halfway point and review significant achievements," said Bayo Onanuga, Special Adviser on Information and Strategy for Tinubu, in a statement released on Wednesday.

The title of the statement read, 'President Tinubu set for work trip to Paris'.

Our reporter spotted the President's motorcade leaving his official residence headed for the airport shortly after 11 AM (local time).

The Presidency states that Tinubu will utilize the retreat to "assess the advancement of current reforms and participate in strategic planning as his administration approaches its second anniversary."

"This phase of introspection will shape strategies to enhance current reform efforts and expedite progress toward national development goals in the upcoming year," the statement said.

Recent economic progress underscores the President’s dedication to these initiatives, illustrated by the Central Bank of Nigeria announcing a substantial rise in net foreign exchange reserves to $23.11 billion—evidence of the government’s financial restructuring efforts starting from 2023, at which time net reserves stood at only $3.99 billion.

During his absence, President Tinubu will stay thoroughly connected with his team and keep managing governmental operations.

"He is scheduled to return to Nigeria in approximately two weeks," Onanuga said.
