In Two Weeks Iran's Economy Would Have Nothing Left"- US Treasury Secretary - Foreign Affairs

Image
  Iran’s beleaguered economy will soon have “nothing to trade” in about two weeks after it makes its final oil deliveries, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent claimed. Bessent assessed that the Islamic Republic is becoming desperate to make a deal because of its collapsing economy, hastened by Operation Economic Outcast, and warned that its problems will get dramatically worse in two weeks. “I am confident, given that there’s only 15 million more barrels of Iranian oil on the water, that Iran will have nothing left to trade for anything,” Bessent told Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures “Probably within the next two weeks, they are going to make their final deliveries of oil to China, and then they will have nothing,” Bessent added. “It is an empty set. And I believe that they are feeling the pressure here, and that’s why they want a deal.” Since the Memorandum of Understanding with Iran collapsed in July, the US has implemented a sweeping blockade around the regime, cutting off vessels...

Image
  Investigative journalist Fisayo Soyombo has warned Nigerians seeking to escape economic hardship through irregular migration that they could encounter more difficult conditions in Libya. Soyombo, who is also the founder of Foundation for Investigative Journalism, spoke during an interview on ARISE News on Sunday while discussing his 47-day undercover journey from Kano through Niger to Tripoli, where he documented the experiences of migrants travelling along the Sahara Route.

The options in Libya are worse,” Soyombo said. He said some Nigerians who reach Libya become stranded after running out of money and are forced to take jobs to survive while trying to raise funds for another attempt to cross into Europe. “What happens a...

  nd New Campaign Vehicles (4.24 minutes video). Brand new vehicles for political campaigns, while Nigerian hospitals struggle without ambulances, schools lack basic facilities, and ordinary families struggle to survive. And this isn’t about Tinubu or one political party. It cuts across parties and regions.

EBONYI STATE NEWS

  This building has been abandoned for many years in Ebonyi. Today, I saw a video showing serious work going on to complete it. What the government is doing with this project is highly commendable. I have always wondered why previous administrations never bothered to finish it. Dear Rt. Hon. Francis Ogbonna Nwifuru , thank you for this one. Now, my plea. Once it's completed, please don't turn it into government offices. No party office should be found there. And it shouldn't be managed by government. Those who are more interested in 4+4 should completely stay away from it. Let a private firm manage it, while the state keeps ownership. Make it the Ebonyi Tech Hub, with office spaces for rent and a training academy for our youths. I will show you the numbers to explain why this matters. Ebonyi reportedly generated N17.18 billion in internally generated revenue in 2025, one of the three lowest in Nigeria, ahead of only Yobe. Enugu, our neighbour, generated N406.77 billion. Tha...
