US President-elect Donald Trump filed a brief Friday urging the Supreme Court to pause a law that would ban TikTok the day before his January 20 inauguration if it is not sold by its Chinese owner ByteDance. "In light of the novelty and difficulty of this case, the court should consider staying the statutory deadline to grant more breathing space to address these issues," Trump's legal team wrote, to give him "the opportunity to pursue a political resolution." Trump was fiercely opposed to TikTok during his 2017-21 first term, and tried in vain to ban the video app on national security grounds. The Republican voiced concerns -- echoed by political rivals -- that the Chinese government might tap into US TikTok users' data or manipulate what they see on the platform. US officials had also voiced alarm over the popularity of the video-sharing app with young people, alleging that its parent company is subservient to Beijing and that the app is used to spread propaganda, claims denied by the company and the Chinese government. Trump called for a US company to buy TikTok, with the government sharing in the sale price, and his successor Joe Biden went one stage further -- signing a law to ban the app for the same reasons. Trump has now, however, reversed course. "Now (that) I'm thinking about it, I'm for TikTok, because you need competition," he recently told Bloomberg. "If you don't have TikTok, you have Facebook and Instagram -- and that's, you know, that's Zuckerberg." Facebook, founded by Mark Zuckerberg and part of his Meta tech empire, was among the social media networks that banned Trump after attacks by his supporters on the US Capitol on January 6, 2021. The ban was driven by concerns that he would use the platform to promote more violence. Those bans on major social media platforms were later lifted. In the brief filed on Friday, Trump's lawyer made it clear the president-elect did not take a position on the legal merits of the current case. "President Trump takes no position on the underlying merits of this dispute," John Sauer wrote in the amicus curiae -- or "friend of the court" -- brief. "Instead, he respectfully requests that the court consider staying the act's deadline for divestment of January 19, 2025, while it considers the merits of this case, thus permitting President Trump's incoming Administration the opportunity to pursue a political resolution of the questions at issue in the case." ft/aha
President Bola Tinubu has firmly stated that he is not prepared to reduce the size of his cabinet. He made this clear during his first presidential media chat on Monday, addressing concerns about the cost of governance and calls to shrink his cabinet. Responding to a question about whether he plans to reduce the size of his cabinet to cut governance costs, President Tinubu explained his rationale for assembling a large team, emphasising that it was a strategic decision to ensure optimal performance and delivery of his administration’s goals. “I’m not prepared to bring down the size of my cabinet,” the President said. “I saw the need when I put them together. You don’t give somebody an assignment that they cannot fulfill. No. Nigeria is a large country.” The President reiterated that his focus is on achieving efficiency and effectiveness, which he described as the guiding principles behind the composition of his cabinet. He noted that the structure of his team was carefully designed to address the nation’s complex challenges, adding that the nation’s population plays a role in the cabinet size. “Let’s pay attention to efficiency. Efficiency and effectiveness are the hallmark of the philosophy behind that cabinet. I’m not ready to shrink a little bit of it. I need them,” Tinubu asserted. He added, “If you are to entertain over 200 million, just on entertainment, calculate how many stewards you will require. That’s just for entertainment, not the cleaners.” While acknowledging concerns about governance costs, the President’s response underscores his belief that a well-structured and capable team is crucial for achieving his administration’s objectives. His comments suggest that he intends to prioritise performance and results over downsizing, viewing his current cabinet structure as necessary for the tasks ahead. However, this position is likely to generate debate among Nigerians, especially those advocating for leaner government structures to address economic challenges.
