US EditionOxford Union president-elect apologises to Charlie Kirk’s family
George Abaraonye apologized after posting messages that seemed to celebrate Charlie Kirk's shooting; he was ousted following a no-confidence vote amid public backlash.
- George Abaraonye, president‑elect of the Oxford Union, apologised on Friday, November 28 to Charlie Kirk’s widow Erika and their two children for comments that appeared to celebrate Kirk’s death.
- Shortly after the shooting, George Abaraonye posted celebratory remarks in an Oxford Union WhatsApp group and on Instagram, later saying he reacted with very little context after seeing only a headline.
- The shooting occurred on September 10 at Utah Valley University while Charlie Kirk spoke on his American Comeback Tour, and the suspect, Tyler Robinson, is held in a Utah jail; Abaraonye is a 20-year-old PPE student whose comments sparked swift backlash.
- The Oxford Union distanced itself and George Abaraonye was ousted after a vote of no confidence, formally resigning following the November 24 vote that recorded 501 opposing votes.
- Abaraonye said, `I want to offer my apologies and my condolences. No one deserves to lose a husband, no child deserves to grow up without a father. I hope that they are able, in some capacity, to move on from what was a tragic event and to that end, I am very sorry,` after reporting racist threats and a mental breakdown.
