By Chesa Chesa 

President Bola Tinubu has condemned the assassination attempt of former American President, Donald Trump at a rally in the United States, describing it as distasteful.

Trump survived the gun attack by a 20-young man, with a bleeding ear before he was reacued by his security details. The assailant was shot dead seconds later.

Writing on his X handle, Tinubu said: “The attack on former President Donald Trump is distasteful and goes beyond the pale of democratic norms. Violence has no place in democracy. 

“I extend my sympathies to the former President and wish him relief. I also condole with the family of the deceased and those wounded and wish them a quick recovery. 

“Nigeria stands in solidarity with the United States of America at this time.”
