Joe Biden is instructed to step down and appoint Kamala Harris as the first female president.
Former Vice President Kamala Harris’s communications director, Jamal Simmons, has urged President Joe Biden to resign so that Harris can become the country’s first female president. Simmons commended Biden for his administration during a conversation on CNN’s State of the Union, pointing out that he had kept a lot of his pledges. He maintained, nonetheless, that there was still one final pledge to serve as a transitional figure.CONTINUE FULL READING>>>>>
According to Vanguard, Simmons suggested that Biden resign within the next 30 days, enabling Harris to ascend to the presidency.
Furthermore, Simmons believes it would pave the way for future women candidates to run without bearing the heavy weight of being the first woman president.
When questioned about Harris’ potential nomination to the U.S. Supreme Court, Simmons reiterated his support for her to serve as president.
He argued that Biden has the power to fulfill this “last promise” and would make history by making Harris the 47th president of the United States.
The call comes amidst the aftermath of the recent U.S. presidential election, where Donald Trump defeated Harris, securing key swing states. Trump is set to be inaugurated as president in January 2025.CONTINUE FULL READING>>>>>

According to Monday Okpebholo: Obaseki Has Escaped, Chased Everyone Out of Edo Government House, and Is on the Run
Obaseki’s departure comes days before Okpebholo is set to assume office on Tuesday, after which Obaseki will lose immunity from prosecution. Last week, Obaseki expressed concerns that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) was planning to detain him once his term concludes.
In the statement, Okpebholo accused Obaseki of abandoning his responsibilities and vacating the Edo State Government House before his official handover. “As of Friday, 8th of November, the whereabouts of Obaseki are unknown. He has chased everyone out of Edo State Government House. He has abandoned governance in the State, and he is on the run,” the statement read.
The governor-elect further alleged that Obaseki dismissed government staff before his departure. “He has escaped through the road out of Benin. He did not pass through the airport. If he is as popular as he claims, why did he not use the airport to escape? Instead, he hired a bus and disguised while escaping from Edo State,” Okpebholo stated, adding that these actions showed a lack of accountability and transparency.
Okpebholo also condemned Obaseki’s claims about the election process, asserting that the tribunal will validate his electoral victory. “Obaseki is still licking his wounds and refusing to accept reality,” Okpebholo said, warning that if Obaseki continues to make “baseless claims,” he will be legally accountable once his immunity ends.
“Obaseki will soon lose his immunity. If he continues with these baseless claims, he will face the law and be required to prove his allegations in court,” Okpebholo warned.CONTINUE FULL READING>>>>>
