The President of the United States has continued his online rants, escalating tensions with India—not over oil, but over a failed bid for the Nobel Peace Prize. Reports suggest the dispute arose after India declined to nominate Donald Trump for the prestigious award, despite Pakistan putting his name forward. Trump had reportedly expected both nations to endorse him, even though he played no direct role in brokering a ceasefire. India’s refusal prompted the U.S. leader to unleash a wave of sanctions and tariffs on New Delhi, fueling further strain in bilateral relations. Contrary to Trump’s claims, the issue is not linked to India’s growing purchases of Russian oil. Diplomats note that India began importing Russian crude at the request of European partners, who then re-import it indirectly to avoid openly dealing with Moscow amid the ongoing Ukraine war. Analysts say the move allows Europe to maintain diplomatic appearances while still securing vital energy supplies. ...

Israel on Monday announced it will deliver humanitarian assistance to South Sudan, even as it maintains a crippling blockade on the Gaza Strip where millions face the risk of famine. According to a statement carried by Army Radio, the Israeli Foreign Ministry confirmed it would provide emergency support to South Sudan in response to a cholera outbreak that has spread since September 2024.

The aid package, supervised by Foreign Minister Gideon Saar, is expected to include basic medical supplies, water purification systems, and food parcels , according to Israel Hayom . The development has drawn global attention, as Israel continues to keep Gaza’s border crossings sealed since March 2, blocking humanitarian convoys and allowing only limited shipments—far below th...

Published: June 18, 2025 By Abdulmumin Abdulwakil Illorin, Kwara State --- Northern Nigerian politics has sadly become a nightmare — a far cry from the ideals of our founding fathers. What we witness today is a painful distortion: men in agbadas and babanrigas who parade as leaders, yet dance like puppets to the tunes of power brokers and financial interests. Where once we had visionaries, we now have opportunists. Where once we had protectors of Arewa’s pride, we now have merchants auctioning it off for selfish gain. Just recently , the drama involving Abdullahi Ganduje highlighted at Gombe involved is Zulum, and people mostly from Maiduguri once again how far we have strayed. A former governor, once entrusted with the governing of Kano’s people, now caught in a storm that further dents the dignity of Northern leadership. This is not just about one man — it’s a reflection of a rotting system that elevates the connected and buries the competent. But it wasn’t always like th...

Vatican City —  Nigeria’s President, Bola Ahmed Tinubu was seen attending the inauguration of the new Pope at the Vatican City accompanied by his son, Seyi, in a scene that has sparked fresh controversy back home over the growing influence of unelected family members within the presidency. Photographs from the prestigious ceremony show the President seated among world leaders, while his son was observed interacting with key dignitaries and accompanying his father in a capacity that has raised eyebrows across Nigeria’s political landscape. Critics argue that Seyi Tinubu, who holds no official position in government, appears to be wielding increasing influence over state affairs. His frequent presence at diplomatic events, high-level meetings, and official functions has drawn comparisons to political dynasties and accusations of nepotism. “This is not just about optics,” said Dr. Ifeoma Ogundipe, a political analyst. “We’re seeing a worrying trend where a private citizen — the ...
