 U.S announces visa curbs for some foreign nationals in South Africa Secretary of State Marco Rubio ‌said on Tuesday the U.S. government was announcing a new visa restriction ​policy targeting some foreign nationals ​in South Africa. The policy targets "foreign ⁠nationals who are responsible for, ​or complicit in, the enactment or ​implementation of laws or policies that enable uncompensated land seizures, race-based discrimination, and/or ​the incitement of imminent violence ​against members of minority ethnic or racial ‌groups ⁠in South Africa," Rubio said in a statement. "The South African government has not adequately addressed the ​previously laid ​out ⁠concerns," Rubio said, Reuters reported. Relations between Washington and Pretoria have ​soured since the start of ​Donald ⁠Trump's second term, with the U.S. president criticizing the country ⁠for ​its policies aimed at ​addressing racial inequality.

 Police Launch Search for Abducted Abia Billionaire as Gunmen Kill Two


The Abia State Police Command has confirmed the kidnapping of Lawson Obasi, a prominent oil and gas magnate, along with the killing of his driver and a police escort.


According to a police statement on Friday, Sergeant Judge Gubi reported that on March 4, officers from the Special Protection Unit (SPU), Base 6, Port Harcourt, were escorting Chief Obasi when they were ambushed while traveling through Azumini Ndoki, Ukwa East Local Government Area.


At around 7:00 PM, unidentified gunmen in a dark blue Sienna intercepted their convoy at Mkap Jekere Ndoki, opening fire. While the officers attempted to repel the attack, another group of assailants forcibly abducted Chief Lawson, leaving his driver and another individual dead.


Following the attack, tactical teams were deployed to comb the area in a bid to rescue Obasi unharmed. Abia State Commissioner of Police, CP Danladi Isa, personally visited the scene alongside senior officers, assuring residents of intensive patrols and enhanced security measures.


The police have urged the public to report any suspicious persons, particularly those with gunshot wounds, or any sightings of a dark blue Sienna vehicle to the nearest police station or emergency hotlines.
