Iran conflict: US embassy warns of possible Abuja protests

The United States embassy in Abuja has warned its citizens about the possibility of protests in Nigeria’s capital linked to the ongoing conflict between the US and Iran. In a security alert, the embassy said there is a high potential for demonstrations in Abuja on Wednesday, March 4, 2026, noting that previous protests by some groups have led to violent clashes with Nigerian security forces. The embassy advised US citizens in Abuja to remain in their homes on that day, avoid protest areas and large gatherings, and maintain a low profile while monitoring local media for updates. It also urged them to review their personal security plans, keep their phones charged, carry valid identification, and stay alert in public spaces such as markets, malls, and places of worship. The embassy further encouraged citizens to familiarise themselves with emergency exits in […]

Oil Prices Jump Amid Strait of Hormuz Crisis

Global oil prices climbed sharply after Iran intensified strikes across the Middle East, raising fears of disruption to energy supplies. Brent crude, the international benchmark, jumped 10% on Monday to briefly exceed $82 per barrel following reports that at least three vessels were attacked near the Strait of Hormuz over the weekend. Natural gas prices also surged by up to 25% amid concerns about supply constraints. Iran warned commercial vessels against passing through the strategic waterway, through which roughly 20% of global oil and gas shipments transit. Shipping activity at the entrance to the strait has slowed dramatically, with analysts cautioning that a prolonged disruption could drive energy prices significantly higher. In the UK, the FTSE 100 opened nearly 1% lower, with airline shares hit by widespread airspace closures across the Middle East. European markets experienced sharper losses: France’s CAC […]

US lawmaker: Christians suffer most from Nigeria’s violence, urges Trump to act

United States lawmaker Riley Moore says Christians have borne the overwhelming brunt of violent attacks in Nigeria for over 20 years and urged President Donald Trump to take decisive action.​ Moore said insecurity affects people of all faiths but insisted that Christians are disproportionately targeted. He claimed Christians are about five times more likely to be killed than any other religious group and accused Fulani militias and terrorist organisations of repeatedly attacking Christian communities, pastors and priests, and burning schools and churches, often on holy days.​ He praised Trump’s readiness to defend Christians globally and described the current moment as a once in a generation opportunity to deepen US–Nigeria relations while confronting the crisis. He acknowledged that Nigeria needs support to tackle insecurity but said President Bola Tinubu’s government must show stronger political will.​ Moore argued that any future bilateral […]

Modi visits Israel as US Iran tensions rise

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrives in Israel on Wednesday for a two day visit that both governments say will deepen ties, as fears grow over a possible military clash between the United States and Iran. Modi, a Hindu nationalist, was the first Indian prime minister ever to visit Israel in 2017, when he and Israeli leader Benjamin Netanyahu famously walked barefoot together on a Haifa beach.​ The two men remain in power nearly nine years later and describe each other as friends. During this visit they are expected to hold talks on artificial intelligence and defence cooperation at a time when Israel is seeking to expand its military exports. An Israeli government official said the trip would pave the way for new partnerships in many sectors, while a foreign ministry official said bilateral relations were close to a significant […]

Stop Watching the Hearing Start Demanding the Audit

When United States Congress wants answers, the same pattern plays out. The biggest name gets called in. Cameras switch on. Soundbites travel faster than facts. But the real story rarely sits at the microphone. It sits in the documents.It sits in internal emails.It sits with the staff who drafted policies and carried them out. When a leader refuses to answer directly, it raises a basic question. Why does the investigation stop there? Accountability doesn’t start at the top. It follows the chain. Serious oversight means looking beyond the headline witness. It means calling the deputies.The policy writers.The supervisors who signed off on decisions. Anyone who has watched a U.S. House Committee on Oversight and Accountability hearing knows the pattern. High-profile testimony draws attention. But the details that explain what actually happened are usually buried deeper in the structure. Real investigations […]

Supporters stationed near the perimeter fence waved and called out greetings, some holding up signs and smartphones to capture the moment. White House staff coordinated the movement with precision. Within minutes, the motorcade pulled away from the grounds, heading toward its next scheduled stop. Why the […]

Iran says “good progress” made in Geneva nuclear talks with US

Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi says indirect nuclear negotiations with the United States have made “good progress”, as Washington reiterated that military action remains an option if diplomacy collapses.

Agreement on “guiding principles” Speaking to Iranian state television after the meeting, Araghchi said both sides had reached a broad understanding on key principles that will shape the next phase of negotiations. “Ultimately, we were able to reach broad agreement on a set of guiding principles, based on which we will move forward and begin working on the text of a potential agreement,” he said.

Oil prices climb as Trump steps up threats against Iran

Global oil prices have risen again after US President Donald Trump intensified threats against Iran, fuelling fears of supply disruptions from the major crude producer. The latest gains come as US and Iranian officials hold sensitive talks on Tehran’s nuclear programme in Geneva. On Tuesday, US benchmark West Texas Intermediate climbed by around 1.5 per cent, while Brent North Sea crude also ticked higher in early trading. Late last month, Brent had already pushed above 70 dollars per barrel for the first time since July, with WTI moving past 65 dollars, as tensions escalated. The rally has been driven by a series of public warnings from Trump, who has repeatedly told Iran to accept a new nuclear deal or face military strikes. He boasted that a “massive armada” led by the USS Abraham Lincoln carrier strike group was heading towards […]
