Nigeria floods leave more than 600 people dead – BBC News
Counter terrorism police are now leading the investigation into the death of former Conservative minister Ann Widdecombe, after “new information and evidence has come to light”, Counter Terrorism Policing South East (CTPSE) has said.
“The police are pursuing multiple lines of enquiry to establish the motivation for this attack. I will be updating the House further this afternoon,” Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood said.
A 28-year-old white British man from Rotherham, South Yorkshire, was originally arrested on suspicion of murder on Saturday but has now been re-arrested “on suspicion of commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism”, CTPSE said.
Police said the “dynamic and complex investigation” had led to the new arrest.
On Thursday, 78-year-old Widdecombe was found dead at her home in Haytor, Devon, having sustained serious injuries.

Three members of his government, including Home Office minister Jess Phillips, have resigned, whilst scores of Labour MPs are calling for him to quit following a disastrous set of elections for the party last week.
Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood is among a number of cabinet ministers urging the prime minister to set out a departure timetable.
Sir Keir said he does not intend to quit and threw down the gauntlet to potential rivals to formally challenge him as Labour leader.
No MP has yet launched a formal bid to challenge him, which requires the backing of 81 colleagues or 20% of Labour MPs, according to party rules.

The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

Useless packet of politicians has in Nigeria, every time they tour Europe and America wasting national funds overseas in nations that more developed and still advancing. But they can't develop their own nation and build infrastructures to prevent these kinds of disaster. Shame.

Nigeria government failed on their part. They were to build a dam bigger than the Cameroon dam that could contain the water if they open their dam to relieve the pressure the water will cause on the Cameroon dam

Please d cause of this flood has nothing to do with rains or flash flooding .
Simply put Cameroon released dam
It caused d river banks to overflow in regions situated along d rivers.
Definitely not rainfall/climate change

Natural disasters happening world wide remind us about end times. Frequency of disasters like Flash floods, Earth quakes, Volcanic eruptions,Wild fires, Hailstorms, Cyclones, Tsunami ,Tornadoes, Landslides, Pandemic have increased during last few years …Believe it or not…These are signs of end times, beginning of sorrows. Prophesies are coming true. Threat of a famine is looming large…Let us repent and pray for Lord''s mercy…Prepare for Jesus second coming…

Brothers & Sisters, Earth is showing us to care for Her & each other, what ever we do must have Her at heart of interest, we must not harm her or we will feel the agony, I hope the suffering here in Nigeria is limited & everyone over there is cared for back to good health, I hope Earths resources over there are not been taken the advantage off, I hope the rest of the world helps those in need, I hope the petrol pipe line that runs through a huge lake there is not been sabotaged leaking x amount of fuel poisoning the water & ruining the habitat. For GOD, For 🌎, For Us all 🤝
