INEC Denies Disobeying Court Order in Party Dispute

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has denied allegations that it disobeyed a Federal High Court order concerning the leadership of the Action Alliance (AA) party. In a statement, the commission described the reports as "misleading and mischievous," asserting that it has fully complied with the judgment. INEC explained that it filed compliance documents and updated its website to recognize the party's executive as directed. The commission clarified that it intentionally omitted the name of a specific chairman, Rufai Omoaje, because his removal is the subject of a pending Supreme Court appeal. INEC stated it cannot list him while an appellate court's decision to sack him remains in force. It urged media organizations to verify facts before publishing reports that could mislead the public and distort judicial processes.

Machado is a prominent figure in the opposition against the government of Nicolás Maduro. The award recognizes her long-standing activism and dedication to peaceful democratic change in the South American country.

World’s Oldest Leader Biya Seeks Eighth Term in Cameroon

Paul Biya, the world's oldest head of state at 92, is the favorite to win Cameroon's presidential election on Sunday, extending his 43-year rule with an eighth term. He faces a divided opposition of 11 candidates, though his most credible rival, Maurice Kamto, was barred from running by the courts. Biya's campaign has been low-profile, marked by a rare public appearance this week after a trip to Switzerland fueled speculation about his health. Many young voters, who have known no other leader, express frustration with the high cost of living and lack of opportunities. However, others value his decades of experience. Human rights groups have long condemned Biya's control over the country's institutions and the election process, casting doubt on the vote's fairness. The election takes place amid a deadly separatist conflict in the country's English-speaking regions.

Trump Administration Cuts Energy Projects, Freezes NY Funds

The Trump administration has canceled billions in clean energy projects and frozen funding for major New York infrastructure, escalating a political battle over the ongoing US government shutdown. The Department of Energy announced the termination of 223 clean energy projects, claiming a savings of $7.56 billion for taxpayers. Officials stated the projects did not advance US energy needs or provide a good return on investment. Russell Vought, head of the Office of Management and Budget, labeled the canceled funding as "Green New Scam" money on social media. The affected projects are in 16 states, including Democratic strongholds like California and New York. California Governor Gavin Newsom said the move cancels up to $1.2 billion for a hydrogen project and threatens thousands of jobs. Separately, the Department of Transportation froze nearly $18 billion for two major New York projects: the Second […]

Senator Natasha Set for Return as Six-Month Suspension Ends

Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan (Kogi Central) has completed the six-month suspension imposed on her by the Senate on March 6, 2025, paving the way for her return to plenary. The lawmaker was barred from legislative duties, entry into the National Assembly, and access to official resources after being accused of breaching Senate rules. Akpoti-Uduaghan has consistently dismissed the sanction as politically motivated, insisting it was triggered by her petition alleging sexual harassment by Senate President Godswill Akpabio. Her suspension sparked weeks of controversy, peaking in July when she stormed the National Assembly with her lawyers, brandishing a court judgment she claimed ordered her immediate recall. With the suspension now expired, focus has shifted to how her return will unfold amid lingering friction with the Senate leadership. Political observers say her re-entry could test unity in the chamber as key legislative battles […]

Guinea-Bissau Faces Political Crisis as President Embalo Stays Beyond Term

Guinea-Bissau faces mounting political uncertainty after President Umaro Sissoco Embalo remained in office despite the official end of his term. Embalo’s mandate expired at midnight on Thursday, but instead of stepping aside, he declared that he would continue carrying out presidential duties until elections scheduled for November 23. Opposition parties denounced the move as an illegal power grab. Embalo is widely expected to seek a second term, but critics say his refusal to leave office risks plunging the country into another constitutional crisis. Guinea-Bissau’s constitution allows a five-year presidential term with a maximum of two terms. The opposition argues that Embalo’s tenure should have ended in February, though the Supreme Court ruled it extended until September 4. For months, opposition groups have refused to recognize Embalo as president. At the same time, parliamentary elections have not been held since the […]
