 ANAMBRA POLICE ACTION ON THE CULT CLASH THAT RESULTED IN THE FATAL INJURY OF FOUR PERSONS AT AFOR NAWFIA MARKET The Anambra State Police Command wishes to provide a comprehensive update on the cult-related attack that occurred on the evening of 7th December 2025 at Afor Nawfia Market, along the Onitsha–Awka Old Road. It will be recalled that operatives of the Command attached to the Special Anti-Cult Squad, Enugwu-Ukwu, had, four days earlier, acting on credible intelligence about a planned rival cult confrontation, arrested two dangerous suspects and recovered a firearm from them. The arrested suspects have been assisting the Police with valuable information aimed at preventing further cult-related violence within Awka and its environs. Despite these proactive efforts by the Command operatives, some members of the same gang, on the evening of 7th December 2025, operating in a black Lexus Jeep with registration number yet unknown, stormed Afor Nawfia Market and opened fire indiscr...

US and China hold talks in Stockholm to address trade tensions

Top trade officials from the United States and China gathered in Stockholm on Monday to begin two days of high-level talks aimed at reducing tensions between the world’s two largest economies over tariffs and trade policy. The meetings, hosted at the office of Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson, bring together U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer, and Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng. This round of negotiations follows months of strain after President Donald Trump’s sweeping tariff proposals earlier this year that raised import taxes on Chinese goods to 145%, prompting retaliatory tariffs from Beijing and rattling global markets. Analysts believe these discussions could pave the way for a potential meeting later this year between Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping, as both sides seek to extend the current 90-day pause on the punitive tariffs.

This Stockholm meeting is the third such dialogue in recent months, after previous rounds in Geneva and London, and focuses on stabilizing trade relations while exploring ways to rebalance economic ties. During the current pause, U.S. tariffs have been temporarily reduced to 30% and China has maintained a 10% tariff on American goods. Key issues on the table include addressing America’s nearly $300 billion trade deficit with China, opening the Chinese market to more U.S. products, and tackling structural concerns such as industrial overcapacity and chemicals used in fentanyl production. China is also expected to push for the removal of a 20% fentanyl-related tariff introduced by Trump earlier this year. The talks may touch on Beijing’s purchases of oil from Russia and Iran, while business leaders hope the meetings will set a constructive tone and lay the groundwork for a potential leaders’ summit later in the year. Both governments have framed these consultations around principles of “mutual respect, peaceful coexistence, and win-win cooperation,” but the outcome will depend on whether negotiators can maintain the fragile thaw in U.S.-China trade relations.
