Iwobi hopeful of quick return after injury blow

Super Eagles midfielder Alex Iwobi has expressed optimism that he will return to action soon after suffering a hamstring injury during Fulham’s recent Premier League clash with Brentford. The 29-year-old pulled up unchallenged while chasing a loose ball and was forced off shortly before half-time in the goalless draw at the Gtech Community Stadium. Fulham manager Marco Silva initially described the setback as “really bad news”, but stressed that early indications suggested it was not a “serious, serious” hamstring problem. He said the club would have to wait for the results of a scan to determine the full extent of the damage, but remained hopeful that Iwobi could feature again before the end of the season. Providing his own update, Iwobi admitted he was frustrated by the timing of the injury but revealed he is still able to walk despite […]

Stung by Iran war, Trump heads to China in need of wins

US President Donald Trump is heading to China this week seeking much-needed diplomatic and economic wins after an unpopular war with Iran has weakened his standing at home and abroad. Analysts say Trump’s once bold ambition to force Beijing into sweeping concessions through tariffs and pressure has been blunted by court rulings and the political fallout from the conflict in the Middle East. Trump is due to meet Chinese President Xi Jinping in Beijing on May 14 and 15, their first face-to-face talks since the two leaders agreed to pause a bruising trade war last October. Expectations for the summit are modest, with US officials now focusing on securing limited deals on agricultural exports like soybeans, beef and a potential package involving Boeing aircraft. Beyond trade, the Iran war is expected to dominate the agenda as Washington quietly seeks China’s […]

Navy busts illegal refinery sites in Rivers

The Nigerian Navy says it has uncovered and dismantled several reactivated illegal refining sites in Rivers State as part of its ongoing crackdown on crude oil theft and illegal bunkering in the Niger Delta.

81-year-old Museveni sworn in for seventh term as Uganda’s president

Uganda’s long-serving leader, President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni, has been sworn in for a seventh term in office at a ceremony held in the capital, Kampala. The 81-year-old, who has ruled the East African country since 1986, took the oath of office at the Kololo Independence Ceremonial Grounds on Tuesday, extending his time in power to more than four decades. Museveni’s latest term follows his victory in the January 2026 general elections, where he was declared winner with about 71 percent of the vote by the electoral commission. The poll was marred by reports of violence, arrests of opposition supporters and an internet shutdown, drawing criticism from rights groups and international observers. The inauguration was attended by several African heads of state and foreign dignitaries, with Uganda’s government saying at least 35 leaders had been invited for the high-profile event.

Iran chief negotiator says US must accept proposal or face ‘failure’

Iran’s chief negotiator has warned that the United States must accept Tehran’s latest proposal in the ongoing talks or risk what he called a “failure” of the entire diplomatic process. In comments reported on Tuesday, he said Washington has reached a decisive moment and that continued hesitation would only deepen the stalemate. The negotiator, speaking on behalf of Iran’s foreign ministry, accused the US of clinging to “excessive” and “maximalist” demands that had already undermined earlier rounds of negotiations.

According to regional reports, the proposal is part of a broader package seeking relief from what Tehran describes as “illegal unilateral sanctions” in exchange for verifiable steps on nuclear and security issues. Iranian […]
