Tinubu, other world leaders express solidarity with Trump after failed assassination attempt

President Bola Tinubu has joined other world leaders to condemn the assassination attempt on ex-US President Donald Trump at a campaign rally in Pennsylvania.

The shooting on Saturday grazed Mr Trump’s right ear and killed one bystander. Two other spectators were critically wounded.

In a post on X, Mr Tinubu said the attack on Mr Trump is “distasteful and goes beyond the pale of democratic norms.”
