President Trump fired FBI Director James Comey Tuesday, the White House said, moving to oust the man leading an investigation into his campaign operatives’ ties to Russia. Mr. Trump insisted he’s not part of the probe, but said he felt compelled to fire the director anyway. “While I greatly appreciate you informing me, on three separate occasions, that I am not under investigation, I nevertheless concur with the judgment of the Department of Justice that you are not able to effectively lead the Bureau,” Mr. Trump said in a letter to Mr. Comey. The president said a new director is needed at the Federal Bureau of Investigation who “restores public trust and confidence” in the agency.

Democrats said the firing raises troubling questions about the current investigation into Russia and demanded Mr. Trump take steps to m...

Nigeria's Former Minister of Petroleum Diezani Allison-Madueke The UK's National Crime Agency (NCA) has frozen a £10million worth of London property allegedly bought for Diezani Alison-Madueke as investigations into the case against the former minister unravels by the day.

A London court gave the frozen order in September 2016 but details of the rulings have only recently become public. But the agency was too late in preventing a further two properties worth £8m from being sold.
