In celebration of Nigeria’s 63rd Independence anniversary, Hollandia, a leading dairy brand, orchestrated a captivating event under the banner of its “Stay Ahead with Dairy Power” initiative. The purpose was to advocate for a healthier and more vibrant future for Nigeria while paying homage to the nation’s remarkable journey.

This exclusive event unfolded at the esteemed Radisson BLU Hotel in Ikeja GRA on October 1st and 2nd, 2023, meticulously organized by Hollandia as part of its on-premise engagement strategy with consumers. The guest list boasted distinguished influencers, including the versatile media personality Nicole Chikwe, the skilled mixologist Kehinde Omosowoeni (Kenizmix), and the Instagram sensation and culinary expert Nelson Michael, widely known as Chef Cupid.

The dynamic duo of Chef Cupid and Kenizmix captivated the audience with their extraordinary dairy-infused cocktails and mocktails, crafting a spectrum of flavors and experiences. Beyond the gastronomic delights, the event served as a platform to underscore the health benefits associated with Hollandia products.

Chef Cupid expressed enthusiasm about the array of dairy products offered by Hollandia, inspiring countless new recipes. He encouraged people to explore and embrace these innovative recipes, signaling a departure from conventional culinary choices. “We are introducing new recipes because people are kind of bored with the old ones. If you noticed, we started a new series on Banana recipes with Hollandia, and people should watch out for more new recipes from Hollandia,” he announced.

Nicole Chikwe emphasized the significance of mindful eating in the current challenging and stressful times. She advised everyone to be intentional about their dietary choices and incorporate Hollandia into their daily lives, emphasizing dairy as a source of power.

Gloria Nwabuike, the Category Manager for Dairy and Snacks at CHI Limited, articulated that Hollandia’s Independence Day celebration reflects the brand’s commitment to providing exceptional dairy nourishment to Nigerians. She stated, “The ‘Stay Ahead with Dairy Power’ independence activation reaffirms Hollandia’s commitment to empowering Nigerians with the goodness of dairy, fostering a sense of unity, and driving the nation towards a healthier and more prosperous future.”

Special counsel Robert Mueller’s team has taken the unusual step of questioning Russian oligarchs who traveled into the US, stopping at least one and searching his electronic devices when his private jet landed at a New York area airport, according to multiple sources familiar with the inquiry.

A second Russian oligarch was stopped during a recent trip to the US, although it is not clear if he was searched, according to a person briefed on the matter. Mueller’s team has also made an informal voluntary document and interview request to a third Russian oligarch who has not traveled to the US recently.

The situations have one thing in common: Investigators are asking whether wealthy Russians illegally funneled cash donations directly or indirectly into Donald Trump’s presidential campaign and inauguration.

Investigators’ interest in Russian oligarchs has not been previously reported. It reveals that Mueller’s team has intensified its focus into the potential flow of money from Russia into the US election as part of its wide-ranging investigation into whether the Trump team colluded with Russia’s interference in the 2016 presidential election.

The approach to Russian oligarchs in recent weeks may reflect that Mueller’s team has already obtained records or documents that it has legal jurisdiction over and can get easily, one source said, and now it’s a “wish list” to see what other information they can obtain from Russians entering the US or through their voluntary cooperation. Foreign nationals are prohibited under campaign finance laws from donating to US political campaigns.

The sources did not share the names of the oligarchs but did describe the details of their interactions with the special counsel’s team. One area under scrutiny, sources say, is investments Russians made in companies or think tanks that have political action committees that donated to the campaign.

Another theory Mueller’s office is pursuing, sources said, is whether wealthy Russians used straw donors – Americans with citizenship — as a vessel through which they could pump money into the campaign and inauguration fund.
The encounters with Russian oligarchs at American airports are another sign of the aggressive tactics Mueller’s investigators are using to approach witnesses or people they are interested in speaking with.

“Prosecutors and investigators like the element of surprise when you can get more instinctive (and often truthful) responses,” said Daniel Goldman, a former federal prosecutor, in a text. Mueller’s team is using search warrants to access electronic devices and, Goldman added, “surprise is crucial for those searches because you don’t want anyone to wipe their phone.”

In January, FBI agents stopped and questioned George Nader, a Middle East specialist, when he arrived at Washington Dulles International Airport. They imaged his electronic devices and subpoenaed him for testimony. Nader, who attended secret meetings during the transition between the United Arab Emirates and Trump associates, is cooperating with the investigation. Nader was in the Seychelles when Trump supporter Erik Prince met with Kirill Dmitriev, the chief executive of the state-run Russian Direct Investment Fund. Prince denied any wrongdoing when he spoke with congressional investigators.
