 ‘Empty barrels’ – Otti dismisses Uzor Kalu, Orji, Ikpeazu opposition gang-up Abia State Governor, Alex Otti, has urged Abians to disregard recent remarks by some leaders of the opposition in the state. Governor Otti who was speaking on Saturday at Seventh-Day Adventist Church, Umuoriehi, Umuahia North LGA, during the dedication of the church building, said that those who are gathering against him were the same people that failed to develop the state in the past.

 Putin warns Europe of war if conflict escalates, as Ukraine peace talks stall

Peace talks between the U.S. and Russia on Tuesday ended without a breakthrough, as Russian President Vladimir Putin reiterated his readiness for war with Europe if necessary. The discussions in Moscow involved U.S. special envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, who met with Putin and senior Russian aides to review a draft peace plan aimed at ending the nearly four-year conflict in Ukraine.

The talks lasted five hours, with Russian presidential aide Yuri Ushakov calling them “useful, constructive, and highly informative,” though he said both sides remained far apart on key issues. Moscow continues to demand that Kyiv cede partially occupied territory in the east, while disagreeing over Western-backed security guarantees for Ukraine. Speaking ahead of the meetings, Putin said Europe’s peace proposals were “absolutely unacceptable” and warned that while Russia does not seek war with Europe, it is “ready right now” if hostilities arise. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, meanwhile, expressed cautious optimism, saying the country is “closer to peace than ever before.” Analysts, however, predict the process will be protracted, as Russia appears willing to prolong negotiations to extract concessions while continuing military operations.
