US freezes asylum decisions after National Guard killing

The United States has frozen all asylum decisions after an Afghan national allegedly shot two National Guard members near the White House, killing one and critically injuring the other. President Donald Trump used the attack to harden his anti-migrant stance, vowing to “permanently pause” immigration from what he calls “third world countries” and to roll back millions of admissions approved under former President Joe Biden.​ US Citizenship and Immigration Services director Joseph Edlow said his agency had “suspended all asylum rulings” until officials can guarantee that every foreign national is vetted and screened to the “fullest extent possible.” The State Department, led by Secretary of State Marco Rubio, also announced a pause on issuing visas to anyone travelling on Afghan passports, citing national security concerns.​ Authorities have identified the shooting suspect as 29-year-old Rahmanullah Lakanwal, an Afghan who once served […]

Iran to boycott 2026 World Cup draw over US visa row

Iran says it will boycott the 2026 FIFA World Cup draw in the United States, protesting visa restrictions that could prevent its officials from attending the ceremony. The draw is scheduled to take place in the US, one of the three co-hosts of the 2026 tournament alongside Canada and Mexico.​ Iranian football authorities argue that current US entry rules and political tensions could stop members of their delegation from securing visas. They insist that all qualified teams should be guaranteed equal access to attend official FIFA events, including the final draw.​ Officials in Tehran say they have raised their concerns with FIFA, warning that hosting a major football event in a country with strict visa limits undermines the principle of fairness. They contend that sports events should remain neutral spaces, free from political pressure or discrimination.​ The boycott threat adds […]

Trump Announces Fast-Track Visas for World Cup Ticket Holders

President Donald Trump has unveiled a new fast-track visa scheme for people holding tickets to the 2026 World Cup in the United States. The announcement was made at the Oval Office alongside FIFA president Gianni Infantino. The initiative promises prioritized visa appointments for football fans from around the world. Ticket holders will receive expedited interviews, usually within six to eight weeks. However, US officials made it clear that having a ticket provides only a faster interview—admission is still subject to standard vetting and is not guaranteed. Trump encouraged fans to apply early for their visas to avoid last-minute delays. The move aims to offer a smooth experience for international visitors, though concerns remain about strict border policies possibly affecting entry. FIFA president Infantino supported the scheme, stating that it will help millions of genuine football fans attend the World Cup […]

Baba-Ahmed urges Tinubu to address Nigerians on Trump’s threat

Former Presidential Adviser, Hakeem Baba-Ahmed, has urged President Bola Tinubu to personally address Nigerians following the recent military threat issued by United States President Donald Trump. In a statement posted on his Facebook page on Thursday, Baba-Ahmed expressed worry over the President’s continued silence after Trump accused Nigeria of allowing the killing of Christians and warned of a possible U.S. military response. He said the President’s failure to speak directly to Nigerians could be perceived as a sign of weakness at a time when decisive leadership and reassurance are needed. “If President Tinubu truly has capable advisers and understands the weight of his office, he should have spoken to Nigerians by now,” Baba-Ahmed said. “This is not the time for ministers or aides to issue statements. The President himself should reassure the country, clarify Nigeria’s position, and outline the steps […]

Russian President Vladimir Putin has said that Russia may consider resuming nuclear tests if the United States proceeds with similar actions. He made this known on Wednesday during a meeting of Russia’s Security Council, convened in response to comments by US President Donald Trump. The statement adds a new chapter to the rising nuclear tension between the two largest nuclear powers, as both leaders continue to clash over global security issues and the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. Putin instructed Russia’s defence and foreign ministries, along with security agencies, to gather intelligence and prepare proposals on the “possible start of preparation works for nuclear weapons tests.” Russia last conducted a nuclear test in 1990, a year before the collapse of the Soviet Union. Trump had posted on social media last week that he had directed the Pentagon to “start testing our […]

APC Chieftain Onjeh Warns Trump Against Military Threat to Nigeria

Comrade Daniel Onjeh, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and former Chairman of the Governing Board of the Project Development Institute (PRODA), has condemned the recent threat by former US President Donald Trump to launch military action against Nigeria over alleged religious persecution. In a statement released on Sunday, Onjeh described Trump’s comments as “dangerous and unnecessary,” warning that they could inflame tensions and distort Nigeria’s complex security situation. “The statement has alarmed many Nigerians, not because it came from President Trump alone, but because there’s a long-standing perception that some external forces always see Nigeria through the lens of instability,” he said. “That is why many Nigerians do not take this recent statement as a mere expression of concern.” Onjeh acknowledged that insecurity and killings in Nigeria are real and require urgent attention, but rejected the claim […]
