Tokyo stocks open lower on trade row worries.

Tokyo stocks opened lower Friday, taking a negative lead from Wall Street where shares tumbled after President Donald Trump vowed to enact steep tariffs on steel and aluminium imports, reviving fears of a trade war. The benchmark Nikkei 225 index slipped 1.76 percent or 381.47 points to 21,343.00 in early trade while the broader Topix index was down 1.62 percent or 28.16 points at 1,712.04. “The Tokyo market has taken over the negative sentiment from New York,” said Hikaru Sato, senior technical analyst at Daiwa Securities. Loading ad “Volatile trading is expected for the rest of the day,” Sato told AFP. US stocks tumbled Thursday, the third straight drop, with investors on edge about higher interest rates even before Trump’s latest comments on trade. Trump, at a meeting with American steel and aluminum producers, announced that next week he will sign off on measures designed to protect US companies. US st...

Ibrahimovic set to leave Man Utd at end of season.

Jose Mourinho says Zlatan Ibrahimovic has “won the right to choose his future” after acknowledging that the striker is likely to leave Manchester United at the end of the season. Ibrahimovic, 36, is out of contract at Old Trafford at the end of the current campaign and has been heavily linked with a move to MLS club Los Angeles Galaxy. The former Paris Saint-Germain forward has not played for United since their 2-2 draw against Burnley on December 26, having decided that he was not in the right shape after recovering from career-threatening cruciate knee ligament damage sustained in April. Ibrahimovic has made only seven appearances for United this term, scoring just once in a shock League Cup loss at Bristol City. He hopes to return in time for the second leg of the Champions League last-16 tie against Sevilla at Old Trafford a week on Tuesday, but United boss Mourinho said the Swede’s long-term plans may lie away from Manchester. “For Zlatan, we all think it’s hi...

Trump says ‘trade wars are good and easy to win’.

President Donald Trump spoke out defiantly Friday against global criticism of his plan to impose tariffs on steel and aluminum imports, seeming to welcome the idea of a trade war. “When a country (USA) is losing many billions of dollars on trade with virtually every country it does business with, trade wars are good, and easy to win,” Trump wrote in an early morning tweet. “Example, when we are down $100 billion with a certain country and they get cute, don’t trade anymore-we win big. It’s easy!” the president wrote. “We must protect our country and our workers. Our steel industry is in bad shape. IF YOU DON’T HAVE STEEL, YOU DON’T HAVE A COUNTRY!” After weeks of rumors and counter-rumors about his administration’s intentions, Trump on Thursday announced he would sign off on measures designed to protect US producers next week. The tariffs — 25 percent on steel and 10 percent on aluminum — cover tw...

Ooops! Doctor performs brain surgery on wrong patient.

A neurosurgeon at Kenya’s largest hospital has been suspended after performing brain surgery on the wrong patient, the hospital said in a statement on Friday. The scandal, which prompted an outpouring of horror on social media, is the latest drama to hit the Kenyatta National Hospital in recent weeks, after allegations of staff sexually assaulting patients, and the theft of a baby. The hospital said the surgeon, as well as two nurses and an anaesthetist, had been suspended pending an investigation into the operation “on the wrong patient”. Health Minister Sicily Kariuki also suspended the CEO of the hospital over the blunder. An investigation by the Daily Nation newspaper revealed that two men had been taken to the hospital last Sunday. One required surgery to remove a blood clot to his brain, while the other needed only medication for a swollen head. Hours into the surgery doctors discovered there was no blood clot in the brain of their patient, and that the...

Four aid workers killed by boko haram early today.

Four aid workers were killed in a Boko Haram attack in Rann, in northeast Nigeria, the UN said on Friday, in the latest violence to hit the remote town. The attack happened “after dark” outside a camp housing some 55,000 people displaced by the conflict and appeared to target the military, said UN spokeswoman Samantha Newport. A civilian militia source in Rann, which is some 175 kilometres (110 miles) from the Borno state capital of Maiduguri, and a senior military source gave an identical death toll. They also said eight soldiers were killed in the attack but there was no immediate official confirmation. Newport said: “Four aid workers were killed, one aid worker was injured and one aid worker is missing, feared abducted. “Of the aid workers that were killed, two worked for the IOM (International Organization for Migration) in camp management; and one was a medical doctor working as a third party consultant for UNICEF,” the UN children’s agency, she said. No...

US secretary of state to visit Nigeria next week.

US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson will travel to Africa next week, the State department said Thursday, in his first visit to the continent since President Donald Trump entered office. Tillerson will travel to “N’Djamena, Chad; Djibouti, Djibouti; Addis Ababa, Ethiopia; Nairobi, Kenya; and Abuja, Nigeria,” between March 6 and 13, department spokesperson Heather Nauert announced Thursday. The visit follows a scandal which erupted when President Donald Trump allegedly branded African nations “shithole countries” in January. Tillerson will meet with leaders in each country, along with African Union leadership based in Addis Ababa. “He plans to discuss ways we can work with our partners to counter terrorism, advance peace and security, promote good governance, and spur mutually beneficial trade and investment,” Nauert added. During a November meeting with African Union ministers in Washington, Tillerson outlin...
