Iran seeks talks with us after threat of attack – Trump

U.S. President Donald Trump has said that Iranian authorities have contacted the United States to seek talks, following his threat to take military action over the killing of protesters in the country. Trump made the statement while speaking to journalists, saying that a meeting between the two sides has already been planned, but that the United States might take some action before the meeting takes place. Meanwhile, a human rights organization in Iran says it has confirmed the deaths of nearly 500 people since the outbreak of the protests. Likewise, some circulating video clips show a site outside Iran where bodies are being kept, with people going there to search for the remains of their relatives who have gone missing.

Stepping Down Not The Right Option - Osinbajo

Vice president Yemi Osinbajo has denied reports that he intends to step down for a certain presidential aspirant ahead of the presidential primary of the All Progressives Congress (APC). The denial is contained in a statement by the chairman of Osinbajo’s campaign council, Richard Akinnola on Sunday. According to the statement, the people behind the speculation are “afraid of the huge political support base of the Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo,” adding that the VP is ready for the presidential primary scheduled to hold between June 6 and 8. The campaign council “welcomes our distinguished delegates from across the country to Abuja for our presidential primaries. “As you settle down in Abuja, we implore you to kindly disregard various fake news making the rounds that Prof. Yemi Osinbajo has stepped down. “Osinbajo would be hoping to clinch the ticket of the ruling party with much desire to take over from his principal, President Muhammadu Buhari at the end of his tenur...

We Are Not Exceptional - Zamfara State Legislators

The Zamfara state government has taken a stand against President Muhammadu Buhari's order to ban all flights across the state. State legislators voted against the move, describing it as action speaks louder than words. One of the law makers in the state who came up with the bill, Faruku Dosara, slammed the federal government and retaliated against President Buhari's security adviser, retired Major General Babagana Munguno, for his alleged negligence in the issues concerning security and prosecuting suspects involved in the case. About 300 Jangebe Science Secondary School students were recently abducted and held captive by gunmen for several days before being released, which experts say a ransom must be paid before a deal can be reached. Faruku Dosara said, "It is not only Zamfara State that has the issue of kidnapping in Nigeria, there are Dabchi, Kangara, Chibok and Kagara in Niger State. Why is Zamfara different? We are not exceptional". In a...

Why are Arab countries worried about the possible collapse of Iran’s government?

After tensions flared between Washington and Tehran following the Iranian government’s brutal crackdown on protesters, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Oman launched a major effort to prevent U.S. President Donald Trump from attacking Iran, out of fear that such a move would trigger a “devastating reaction in the region,” a senior Saudi official told AFP. The Saudi official said the three Gulf countries carried out intense diplomatic efforts to persuade the U.S. president to give Iran’s leaders an opportunity to show remorse, adding that communication channels remain open to help build mutual trust. How do the Persian Gulf countries view their “neighbor plagued by instability,” and what are their concerns about its current situation? Gulf diplomacy in a critical moment. The possibility of U.S. military action against Iran has been a key issue causing serious concern in Arab diplomatic efforts, especially among countries of the Gulf region. This concern stems from their proximity to...
