STAFF at the United States Agency for International Development (USAid) have been instructed to stay out of the agency's Washington DC headquarters, after the influential billionaire Elon Musk announced that US President Donald Trump had agreed with him that the body should close.

USAid workers said they tracked 600 employees who reported being locked out of the agency's computer systems overnight on Sunday. Those still in the system received emails saying that "at the direction of Agency leadership" the headquarters building "will be closed to Agency personnel on Monday February 3".

The developments come after Mr Musk, who is leading an extraordinary civilian review of the US federal government with the president's approval, said that he had spoken with Mr Trump about the six-decade US aid and development agency and "he agreed we should shut it down".
