Nuclear accord with Iran in US interest – Mattis.

US Defense Secretary Jim Mattis said Tuesday that President Donald Trump should consider sticking with the nuclear accord with Iran, which he said is in the US national interest. Mattis’s expression of support for the 2015 agreement curbing Iran’s nuclear program was in sharp contrast with Trump’s blunt assessment that the deal is an “embarrassment.” Asked during a Senate hearing whether he believed it was in the national interest, Mattis replied: “Yes, senator, I do.” “If we can confirm that Iran is living by the agreement, if we can determine that this is in our best interest, then surely we should stay with it.” “I believe at this point in time, absent indication to the contrary, it is something that the president should consider staying with,” he said. Trump must notify Congress every 90 days whether Iran is abiding by the accord and whether the lifting of sanctions against Tehran is in the US national interest. He has so far certified that Iran is in compliance wit...

Why Cost Of Foodstuffs Is High - Lai Mohammed .

The Federal Government says despite the revolution witnessed in the agricultural sector, the cost of food items is still high because of infrastructural deficit and export demands. The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, said this on Tuesday when he featured in a Current Affairs programme “Focus Nigeria” of a Lagos-based Television station. “Despite the fact that the production of staples like rice, grains, yam has increased with the agricultural revolution of the government, food items are still on the high side. “There are many reasons why the prices are still up there but principally, I think it is an infrastructural deficit. “By this, I mean what it takes to bring the produce from the farms to the farm gates and from the farm gates to the city centres and this may not improve until various road and rail projects are completed. “The good news, however, is that from October this year, the General Electric, which has the concession for the 3,500 narrow gauge rail...

OOPS! Tension Grips Nigerian City As Separatist Leader Goes Missing.

UMUAHIA, Nigeria (Reuters) - A secessionist leader seeking independence from Nigeria has been missing since an alleged military raid more than two weeks ago left his house in the city of Umuahia riddled with bullet holes, its windows smashed and doors hanging off hinges. The disappearance of Nnamdi Kanu, after the raid the army says did not happen, threatens to ignite separatist unrest capable of destabilizing southeastern Nigeria, a region where a million people died in a 1967-70 civil war over the short-lived Republic of Biafra. Kingsley Kanu, 48, said he was with his older brother Nnamdi, the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) leader, at their family home on the evening of Sept. 14 when soldiers stormed in. “They were shooting everything they saw,” he said, pointing to bullet holes in walls and windows. “They came here just to kill everybody,” he said, adding that around 20 IPOB members were shot dead but most of the bodies were taken by soldiers.

FIFA Fines Nigeria N11 Million For Crowd Disorder - .

The world football governing body slammed Nigeria for crowd disorder during last month’s World Cup qualifier against Cameroon in Uyo, which the Super Eagles won 4-0. The gates were thrown open after the Akwa Ibom State government paid for all the seats in their support for the Super Eagles.

EU’s Barnier says Brexit progress insufficient.

EU Brexit negotiator Michel Barnier said Tuesday that Brexit talks had not made enough progress to unlock the next phase as MEPs prepared to vote on a motion criticising Britain. Addressing the European Parliament in Strasbourg, Barnier said “serious differences” remained on Britain’s divorce bill, the rights of EU citizens living in Britain, and the fate of Northern Ireland. MEPs, meanwhile, took the opportunity to put the boot into British Prime Minister Theresa May’s Conservative party, which is holding its annual conference, over its deep divisions on Brexit. “Today we have not yet achieved sufficient progress to begin in full confidence the second phase of negotiations,” Barnier, a former French minister and European Commissioner, told MEPs. “There are still serious divergences, in particular on the financial settlement. We will not agree to pay at 27 what was decided at 28,” he said, referring to the remaining 27 EU member states. EU leaders are to decide at a summ...
