<div data-reactid="38" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Apple Inc has rolled out its much-anticipated iPhone X, but it came with a hiccup  on Tuesday.</span></div>
<div data-reactid="38" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The glass and stainless steel device with an edge-to-edge display that Chief Executive Tim Cook called “the biggest leap forward since the original iPhone,” created an embarrassing moment for the company when one of the features, the face ID,  refused to work.</span></div>
<div data-reactid="38" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This happened when Apple Senior Vice President Craig Federighi, tried to unlock the phone with his face, during the on-stage presentation.</span></div>
<div data-reactid="38" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">But the hitch was only temporary as the device unlocked on the second attempt.</span></div>
<div data-reactid="39" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The launch contained few surprises, with leaked details on the phone and other products including an updated Apple Watch proving largely accurate.</span></div>
<div data-reactid="39" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The iPhone X’s $999 price still raised eyebrows, and its Nov. 3 ship date prompted questions about possible supply constraints ahead of the holiday season.</span></div>
<div data-reactid="40" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Investors and fans have viewed the 10th-anniversary iPhone launch as an opportunity for Apple to refresh a smartphone lineup that had lagged the competition in new features. Last year the company’s revenue declined when many consumers rejected the iPhone 7 as being too similar to the iPhone 6.</span></div>
<div data-reactid="41" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The new Apple Watch for the first time will be able to make calls and access the internet without the customer carrying an iPhone — a major upgrade that one analyst predicted would more than double watch sales.</span></div>
<div data-reactid="42" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The iPhone X has wireless charging, an infrared camera and hardware for facial recognition, which replaces the fingerprint sensor for unlocking the phone. The home button is also gone, and users instead tap the device to wake it up.</span></div>
<div data-reactid="43" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Apple normally ships new products within a week or two of announcing them, though the company said the later date was consistent with earlier guidance to investors.</span></div>
<div data-reactid="44" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“It’s great to have a product but we’d have liked it sooner rather than later, more like the beginning of October or mid- October,” said Kim Forrest, senior equity research analyst at Fort Pitt Capital Group in Pittsburgh.</span></div>
<div data-reactid="45" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Apple shares closed down 0.4 percent. They had traded as much as 1 percent higher during the launch event before reversing course. The shares are up almost 40 percent on the year.</span></div>
<div data-reactid="46" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Tim Ghriskey, chief investment officer of Solaris Asset Management in New York, said he was not worried about the ship date and liked the new phones features, but also flagged a lack of surprises.</span></div>
<div data-reactid="47" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“It’s sell on the news,” he said. “They didn’t talk about the evolution of Apple beyond the iPhone and into artificial intelligence.”</span></div>
<div data-reactid="48" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The screen on the iPhone X is about the size of the current iPhone 7 plus, though the phone is smaller. It features richer colors thanks to a new screen technology called OLED that other vendors are also rolling out</span></div>

Trump threatens North Korea again

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><img alt="Leader of North Korea Kim Jong Un" src="http://18694-presscdn.pagely.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/North-Korea-Missiles-tested-for-potential-strikes-against-US-military-in-Japan.jpg" /></span><br />

<br />
<div data-reactid="41" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">U.S. President Donald Trump issued another undisguised threat to irritant North Korea on Tuesday dismissing the latest U.N. sanctions as  only a very small step and nothing compared to what would have to happen to deal with the country’s nuclear program.</span></div>
<div data-reactid="42" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin warned China that if it did not follow through on the new sanctions, the United States would “put additional sanctions on them and prevent them from accessing the U.S. and international dollar system.”</span></div>
<div data-reactid="43" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Another senior administration official told Reuters any such “secondary sanctions” on Chinese banks and other companies were on hold for now to give China time to show it was prepared to fully enforce the latest and previous rounds of sanctions.</span></div>
<div data-reactid="44" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The U.N. Security Council voted to boost sanctions on North Korea on Monday, banning its textile exports and capping fuel supplies, prompting a traditionally defiant threat of retaliation against the United States.</span></div>
<div data-reactid="45" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The U.N. move was triggered by the North’s sixth and largest nuclear test this month. It was the ninth such resolution unanimously adopted by the 15-member Security Council over North Korea’s ballistic missile and nuclear programs since 2006.</span></div>
<div data-reactid="46" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">A tougher initial U.S. draft was weakened to win the support of China, Pyongyang’s main ally and trading partner, and Russia, both of which hold U.N. veto power. Significantly, it stopped short of imposing a full embargo on oil exports to North Korea, most of which come from China.</span></div>
<div data-reactid="47" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“We think it’s just another very small step, not a big deal,” Trump told reporters at the start of a meeting with Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak.</span></div>
<div data-reactid="48" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">”I don’t know if it has any impact, but certainly it was nice to get a 15-to-nothing vote, but those sanctions are nothing compared to what ultimately will have to happen,” said Trump, who has vowed not to allow North Korea to develop a nuclear missile capable of hitting the United States.</span></div>
<div data-reactid="49" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Asked if Trump was considering other actions, including cutting off Chinese banks from the U.S. financial system, White House spokeswoman Sarah Sanders said:</span></div>
<div data-reactid="50" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“All options are on the table. The president has also said that he wants every country involved to step up and do more. This was a small step in that process, and we’re hoping that they’ll all take a greater role and a more active role in putting pressure on North Korea.”</span></div>
<div data-reactid="51" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Washington so far has mostly held off on new sanctions against Chinese banks and other companies doing business with North Korea, given fears of retaliation by Beijing and possibly far-reaching effects on the world economy.</span></div>
<div data-reactid="92" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Trump is likely to make a stop in China in November during his first official visit to Asia. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson held talks in Washington on Tuesday with China’s top diplomat, State Councilor Yang Jiechi, at which details of the trip were expected to discussed.</span></div>
<div data-reactid="93" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The U.S. president has wavered between criticizing China for not doing enough on North Korea to heaping personal praise on the Chinese President Xi Jinping.</span></div>
<div data-reactid="94" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">North Korea said its Sept. 3 test was of an advanced hydrogen bomb and it was its most powerful nuclear blast by far. It has also tested a missile capable of reaching the United States, but experts say it is likely to be at least a year before it can field an operational nuclear missile that could threaten America.</span></div>
<div data-reactid="94" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">

He made this known yesterday at a facility tour of the new ultra-modern Yaliam Press Limited in Jabi area of Abuja. </div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Sports,
undoubtedly, has always been a major unifying factor for Nigerians. Whenever
the nation's sports men and women are on national duty for instance, Nigerians
tend to bury their political, religious, ethnic, class and other differences. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">During
such period, the virtues of patriotism are brought to the fore while the idea

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">One
example that readily comes to mind is the recent outing of the nation's senior
football team, the Super Eagles during the 2018 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers in
Uyo and Yaounde.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">In
no time, the social media was set buzzing as Nigerians came together under one

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The
president equally enjoined Nigerians who always see football as a unifying
platform; just as he called on all to continue to pray and support the team to
guarantee victory and make qualification doubly sure.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">As
expected, the agitations for restructuring and other constitutional changes
that hitherto was threatening to heat up the polity , gave way to joyous
celebrations as the Igbo, Hausa , Yoruba and others belonging to different

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Against
this backdrop, it is time the Nigerians key into the impressive success of the
Super Eagles during the recent Russia 2018 qualifier by striving for unity,
sustaining faith in the country as well as working for its peace and progress
in like with the nation's motto.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Similarly,
opinion leaders, relevant authorities and other stakeholders should strive
towards taking advantage of the platform created in the sector to transform
sports into a tool for healing wounds, mend fences, and assisting groups and
cultures rise above their differences.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">For
the handlers and members of the victorious Super Eagles team, it is not time to
rest on their laurels. Rather attention should be focused on how to sustain the
recent successes, enhancing team spirit and performance as well as ensuring the
nation make it to the next world cup.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, has praised his colleagues in the 
South-East for meeting with leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra 
(IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, on Wednesday, August 30, 2017.</span></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><div class="p4">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span class="s1">The meeting, said Fayose, provided a 
veritable platform, which the Igbo should key into “otherwise they will 
remain guinea pig as long as this country exists.”</span></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><div class="p4">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span class="s1">The governor urged the Federal Government
 to allow political solutions to agitations by Nigerians as against the 
use of brute force and added that he remains committed to the call for 
full and total restructuring of Nigeria through dialogue and 
negotiation. The governor declared it is too late for Nigeria to 
disintegrate.</span></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><div class="p4">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span class="s1">Speaking in Ado Ekiti yesterday, Fayose 
said he was “particularly glad that South-East governors have come to 
the realisation that they cannot ignore their own in times like these as
 agitations are normal and must not be ignored, although the approach 
should be handled with caution.”</span></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><div class="p4">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span class="s1">He blamed President Muhammadu Buhari’s actions and utterances for agitations in the country. </span></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><div class="p4">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span class="s1">“The father figure of this country is 
president Buhari and, if his language does not represent unity, there 
will be agitations like we are seeing now. A father figure rallies even 
the bad boys in his house. The utterances and actions of Buhari, when he
 became president, were against the unity of this country. </span></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><div class="p4">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span class="s1">“How can a president say he will only 
attend to the needs of those who gave him 97 percent vote and neglect 
others who did not vote for him? For Nigeria to move forward and in 
unity, there must be no sectionalism, there must be no oppression and 
there must be justice and equity.” </span></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><div class="p4">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span class="s1">“The governor, who commended northern 
leaders for standing up to ensure that the Arewa youths’ quit notice 
against Igbo in the North was resolved and withdrawn without arresting 
and detaining anyone, added: “I am sure that the same can be achieved by
 Igbo leaders as arresting or re-arresting Kanu may be 
counter-productive; it may be perceived as vilification of the entire 
South-East, not necessarily Kanu as a person.”</span></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><div class="p4">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span class="s1">The statement read in part: “This meeting
 has provided a veritable platform, which the Igbo must key into 
otherwise they will remain guinea pig as long as this country exists.</span></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><div class="p4">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span class="s1">“That Eze Israel Kanu, father of the IPOB
 leader, Nnamdi and elderstatesman, Prof. Ben Nwabueze, were part of the
 meeting is a sign of strong determination and unity on the part of the 
South-East leaders and their governors, which I believe will end up in 
the amicable resolution of all issues involved, especially by pro-Biafra
 activists and IPOB.</span></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><div class="p4">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span class="s1">“While I appeal to the federal government
 to allow political solutions to agitations by Nigerians as against the 
use of brute force, which, regrettably, has become the hallmark of this 
administration, I remain committed to the call for full and total 
restructuring of Nigeria through dialogue and negotiation. Even though 
it is too late for Nigeria to disintegrate, we do not need the All

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span><div class="p4">

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span class="s1">Labour also stated in the bulletin that the present administration inherited a N2.7 billion wage bill<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>before screening of workers.</span></span></div>

ISIS is the most evil entity – Coalition commander

<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Lt.-Gen. Stephen Townsend, the Commander of the coalition forces 
confronting  the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS),  says the 
terrorist group is the most evil entity in the world.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">“There is evil in the world, and good people of all faiths and 
nations have joined together and made progress against the evil that is 
the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">“ISIS is the most evil entity I have encountered in my lifetime,” the
 commander said on Thursday in a statement issued by the U.S. Department
 of  Defence.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">“In 2014, ISIS swept across Syria and Iraq and declared it as the 
heart of the new caliphate, with a capital in the Syrian city of Raqqa. 
They did not hide their atrocities,” the general said.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">“They tortured, beheaded and burned those that did not agree with them.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">“ They posted the evidence of their evil for the world to see on 
social media. They enslaved millions under their twisted ideology,’’ he 
said.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">He said Iraqi security forces were at first overmatched and were 
backed up to Baghdad and Kurdistan,  adding that  Iraq asked for help 
 and a coalition led by the U.S. formed against ISIS.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">According to him, the coalition forces helped train and equip Iraqi 
security forces  and they provided the air support needed to keep ISIS 
from making any further gains.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">“To date, more than 110,000 Iraqi security forces have been trained 
and equipped by the coalition to defeat ISIS in Iraq,” Townsend said.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">He lauded the forces for liberating Tikrit, Ramadi, Fallujah, 
Qayyarah, Sharkot and countless smaller villages in 2015,  adding that 
 the nine-month-long liberation battle for Mosul “was a brutal urban 
fight” as well as Thursday’s victory over ISIS in Tal Afar.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">“The coalition of more than 60 nations was there every step of the 
way to provide that support. But make no mistake about it – this is an 
Iraqi plan. This is Iraqis liberating Iraqis,” Townsend said.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">In Syria, the Syrian Democratic Forces have gone from almost being 
pushed out of the country to pushing into Raqqa, the general said.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">“The fighting is difficult, but they have made much progress  and I 
have no doubt they will succeed. You have to remember that the Syrian 
Democratic Forces are not the Iraqi security forces.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">“They do not have tanks, helicopters or fighter jets. They are really
 an irregular light infantry force with a comparative handful of light 
armoured vehicles and heavy weapons who, with coalition assistance, are 
fighting well above their weight class.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">“They have been and remain the most effective counter-ISIS fighting 
force in Syria,” he said,  adding that “  our partners in Iraq and 
Syria, with coalition help, have made substantial accomplishments in the
 fight to defeat ISIS.’’</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">“Together, we have liberated approximately 75,000 square kilometres 
 of ISIS-held terrain, and, more importantly, 5.5 million citizens had 
been liberated from ISIS captivity.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">“The coalition is strong, united, and we remain committed to our 
partners to bring a lasting defeat to ISIS in Iraq and Syria  to prevent
 ISIS from exporting their terror around the world, and to protect our 
own homelands,” he further  said.</span></span><br />

U.S. retaliates, orders closure of Russian missions

<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">In a retaliatory move, the U.S. has  given Russia 48 hours to close 
three of its missions in San Francisco, Washington  D.C. and New York.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The spokesperson of the U.S. Department of  State, Heather Nauert, 
said in a statement on   Thursday that  the move was to achieve parity 
in diplomatic missions.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Moscow had asked Washington to reduce its missions officials in 
Russia in  retaliation for  the seizure of property belonging to 
Russians and expulsion of dozens of Russian nationals by President 
Barack Obama.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Obama took the decision on the eve of the end of his tenure in 
January in retaliation against Russia’s alleged meddling in the Nov. 8, 
2016 U.S. presidential election.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">“The United States has fully implemented the decision by the 
Government of the Russian Federation to reduce the size of our mission 
in Russia.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">“We believe this action was unwarranted and detrimental to the overall relationship between our countries.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">“In the spirit of parity invoked by the Russians, we are requiring 
the Russian Government to close its Consulate General in San Francisco, a
 chancery annex in Washington  D.C.  and a consular annex in New York 
City.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">“ These closures will need to be accomplished by Sept.  2. With this 
action,  both countries will remain with three consulates each.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">“While there will continue to be a disparity in the number of 
diplomatic and consular annexes, we have chosen to allow the Russian 
Government to maintain some of its annexes in an effort to arrest the 
downward spiral in our relationship,’’ the department said.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The U.S. said it hoped that having moved toward the Russian 
Federation’s desire for parity, it could avoid further retaliatory 
actions by both sides and move forward to achieve the stated goal of 
 both of the two countries’  presidents.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The department noted that the goal of both President Donald Trump and
 Russian President Vladimir Putin was  improved relations between the 
two  countries and increased cooperation on areas of mutual concern.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">“The United States is prepared to take further action as necessary and as warranted,” the department  added.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">It  said Secretary of State Rex Tillerson phoned his Russian 
counterpart,  Sergey Lavrov,  “to inform him that we had met their 
required reduction in size by their deadlines.’’</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">“And he also informed him of our plans to close the facilities in question.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">“There was also a meeting between our acting Assistant Secretary for 
European and Eurasian Affairs John Heffern, who conveyed the decisions 
and our response to the Russian Deputy Chief of Mission Dmitry Zhirnov,”
 it added.</span></span><br />

</span></span><div dir="ltr">

It is ilegal to torture suspects- Kaduna Police

<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The Kaduna State police command has frowned at the torture of suspects during investigations and described it as illegal.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The Commissioner of Police in Kaduna, Mr. Agyole Abey, has therefore 
warned officers to stop the use of torture to forcibly extract 
information from suspects.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Abey, said the act was illegal and no longer fashionable and warned that the command would no longer tolerate any such act.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The Commissioner stated command’s position at a training of Judiciary
 Actors on promoting the United Nations Convention Against Torture in 
Nigeria.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Represented by Mr. Abdulazeez Sanni, an Assistant Commissioner, Abey 
said that the command was aware of certain force was applied on suspects
 to compel suspects to confess to an alleged crime.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">This, he said constitutes a criminal and act of human cruelty by any police personnel involved.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The commissioner said: “The use of force is criminal but with law 
enforcement, some existential conditions must be met to remove criminal 
liability.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">“Accordingly, the UN basic principles on the use of force and 
firearms state that its use by law enforcement officials must be 
prescribed by law, necessary, proportionate and none-justifiable.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">“Prompting the United Nations Convention Against Torture (PROCAT) in 
Nigeria is arduous task embarked upon by the organizers of this workshop
 ASF france and National Human Rights Commission (NHRC).”he said</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Speaking earlier, Head of Nigeria Office, ASF, France, Mrs. Angela 
Uwandu, said that, CSO had provided free legal services to over 80 
victims of torture in Kaduna State since 2014.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">She said the essence of the continued training of stakeholders was to
 lead the advocacy against torture in the various states where the CSO 
was working in the country according to the United Nations Convention on
 torture.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">“We brought all these professionals together because when you look at
 the issue of torture, it requires some level of technicality.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">“This issue for instance is not being highlighted and reported 
enough, that is why we are engaging the media. We need to bring about a 
change, because people act as though it is normal.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">“This is not about the police or security agents alone, everyone has a
 role to play and in the cause of this training everyone will know their
 importance and we see ourselves as partners in progress.” she said.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Avocats Sans Frontieres (ASF), otherwise known as “Lawyers Without 
Borders” is the organizers of the training as part of effort to check 
the prevalence of torture, inhumane and degrading treatment.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">This professionals who attended the training are from the Judiciary, 
Police, Prisons Service, Media and Civil Society Organizations (CSO),</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">North Korea said the launch of an intermediate-range ballistic missile (IRBM) on Tuesday was to counter U.S. and South Korean military drills and was a first step in military action in the Pacific to “contain” the U.S. island territory of Guam.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A U.S. Congressional Research Service report said between 1995 and 2008, the United States provided North Korea with over $1.3 billion in assistance. Slightly more than 50 percent was for food and about 40 percent for energy assistance. The assistance was part of a nuclear deal that North Korea later violated.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Responding to Trump’s message, Senator Chris Murphy wrote on Twitter: “Bar is high, but this is perhaps the most dangerous, irresponsible tweet of his entire Presidency. Millions of lives at stake – not a game.”</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Allianz said that it would acquire the stake from UK-based holding company Greenoaks Global Holdings.
