The bond, initially perceived as a routine financial maneuver, has unraveled into a labyrinth of legal hurdles and controversies. Hankey's statement to Reuters encapsulates the frustration and surprise he has encountered since facilitating the bond, illuminating the miscalculations and misjudgments that have characterized Trump's legal defense strategies.
"We thought it would be an easy procedure that wouldn't involve other legal problems, and it's not turning out that way," Hankey lamented, shedding light on the unforeseen complexities that have beset Trump's legal team.

His acknowledgment of the underestimated challenges highlights the unpredictability of legal proceedings, particularly in cases as high-profile and contentious as those involving a former U.S. president.
Hankey's remarks also raise questions about the adequacy of the financial resources allocated to Trump's defense.

2023 Presidency : Should Tinubu Back -pedal On His Plan To Contesr
~1.3 mins read
The perceived presidential ambition and declaration of the National Leader of the ruling All Progressives Congress ( APC), Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu is unsettling Nigerians and already dividing the people.
Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu had on Monday, January 10, 2022 announced that he had informed President Muhammadu Buhari of his interest to vie for the country's presidency.
The development had elicited several reactions, with many claiming such move would mark the end of Professor Yemi Osinbajo interest in the same office or the Igbos in the Southeast who are also eyeing the highest-ranked office.
Many Nigerians opined that Tinubu may end up disgracing himself if he eventually runs for the post.
They advised Tinubu to remain faithful to playing god father's and kingmaker's roles in the national politics pointing out that the All Progressives Congress, APC leader should not forget that he was the major brain behind the enthronement of President Buhari and Vice President Yemi Osinbajo.
They further argued that should the national leader of APC, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu continue with his plans, he may demystify himself. That as a kingmaker, it will be more respected to maintain the aura of a kingmaker than to go into the presidential race.
However, while the APC stalwart had gone to inform the President, Professor Osinbajo was waiting for directives from the President Muhammadu Buhari, who is the leader of the APC , on the way forward for the 2023 presidential election.
The supporters of Osinbajo believe that the Vice-president enjoys a lot of goodwill from Nigerians who believe that he is the best candidate who can sustain the legacies of the present administration and even do things better.
Readers, what is your take on this, are you of the opinion that the APC leader should back- pedal due to people's negative reactions or the enormous pressure mount on him on his declaration of interest in contesting the 2023 presidency?
Osinbanjo Is Qualified To Be President But Has No Political Structions To Battle Tinubu In A Contest

According to a report by Daily Post, The Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, on Sunday released fresh warnings concerning the 2023 Presidential race in Nigeria. Primate Ayodele warned that the Presidential ambition of Bola Tinubu, National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, and Vice President Yemi Osinbajo will jeopardize the chances of the Southwest
The truth about Nigerian politics is that it is difficult for a political protégé to overpower the master. That is the case of Osinbajo and Tinubu in Nigerian politics. Tinubu has declared his ambition, but Osinbajo is yet to declare and seriously moving across Nigeria. Osinbajo can be compared with a man skirting around the stage seemingly oblivious of the elephant brought in by his servants
Could he be sleepwalking? From an innocent bystander's point of view, the only way Osinbajo could have successfully conducted his circumlocution around the country without answering the questions provoked by his eloquent campaigners is through subterfuge. But Osinbajo is a straightforward and forthright man. So he can't feign ignorance.
Except if feigning ignorance is an order from above. Since Osinbajo is a disciplined and spiritual man. 'Above' could mean Tinubu, Buhari, General Overseer, or God. But many don't think Tinubu is employing Osinbajo as a smoke grenade. Buhari may have quietly anointed Osinbajo. But if that is the case Buhari's handlers would have leaked it and started worshipping Osinbajo as royal servants always do.
Is it possible Pastor Adeboye has seen a vision? But if he has, why should the vice president start a campaign approved by God in such a clandestine way? The last. Can Osinbajo's baffling choreography be a direct instruction from God? He is my pastor. He knows he can't be another pastor Okotie.
Osinbajo is super qualified to be president. Academically and spiritually sound. Methodical empathetic and excellence-driven. This murkiness, this utter lack of transparency, this clandestine don't belong to our star boy. That is why many Nigerians have opined that he does not have the balls to face his political Godfather, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
As the 2023 General Election gathers momentum, a Prominent South-West Group, Afenifere has revealed the it will support the emergence of a President of Igbo Extraction in 2023. It's no lon upger a news that Two Prominent Indigenes of the South-West, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu of the APC and Dr. Doyin Okupe and Chief Dele Momodu of the PDP have declared their intention to contest for President in 2023.
Chief Ayo Adebanjo
According to the Leader of the Group, Pa Ayo Adebanjo, Power should shift to the South-East in 2023 in the spirit of Justice, Fairness and Equity. He also called for an end to the discrimination against Igbo.
Why South-West Group Ignored Tinubu, Okupe, Dele Momodu To Declare Support For 2023 Igbo Presidency
According to Pa Adebanjo, It will be unfair to deny the South-East Presidency in 2023. It's no longer a news that the South-West has produced a Two-term President, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo who served between 1999 and 2007 and the Incumbent Vice-president, Professor Yemi Osinbajo. But the South-East Region has not occupy any of the Two Positions since 1999.
Asiwaju Bola Tinubu
To express it's readiness for 2023 Igbo Presidency Project, Politicians including the Governor of Ebonyi State, David Umahi; A Former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Senator Anyim Pius Anyim; 2019 YPP Presidential Candidate, Professor Kingsley Moghalu among others have indicated interest in the 2023 Presidential Race.

"Mr President has spoken to me and asked me to convey his apologies to the good people of the state. Mr President said he would reschedule the visit to the state next week and the fixed date would be communicated to us in due course,” Matawalle said.
"Some of the security chiefs are currently in Katsina but can’t fly to Zamfara for the same reason. Based on this, we are extending our apology to the good people of the state over the postponement for reason beyond our control. We thank Mr President for his love for the state."
