 SDP PARLEYS MEDIA AHEAD OF 2027 GENERAL ELECTIONS  The Social Democratic Party, SDP has disassociated itself from those calling for the rescheduling of the 2027 general elections due to the confirmed case of Ebola in Nigeria. A statement by the Presidential candidate of the Party, Prince Adewole Adebayo indicates that just one case of the disease recorded is not enough to cancel or reschedule the election that is already at hand, as the situation is not yet a pandemic. He explains that the country has the ability to take care of the situation. The statement further encourages the media to be as independent and unbiased as possible in reporting the forthcoming general election. It emphasises the media's role in sustaining democratic governance in the country. The SDP Presidential candidate encourages media practitioners to get acquainted with the party's manifesto and enlighten the public adequately, enabling them to actively engage the party during campaigns.

THE DRIVER THAT DROVE OCHOLI & HIS FAMILY,DON'T HAVE DRIVER'S LICENSE & HE MIGHT FACE PROSECUTION.

                            Today wednesday,the Secretary to the Government of the Federation {SGF},Babachir David Lawal,could not rule out the possibility of the driver that drove the late Minister of State for Labour and Employment,James Ocholi,from facing prosecution for over speeding and not owning a driver's license.Speaking with the State House correspondents at the end of the Federal Executive Council {FEC} meeting,the SGF said that the final report on the accident will determine if Elegbede will be prosecuted.He said ''As to the issue of whether we would prosecute the driver,yes,Nigeria is not short of laws,the problem is that Nigerians find it very difficult to obey the laws.There is a speed limit in plaace and so if anybody chooses not to obey the traffic laws,of course,it is subject to prosecution by the agencies concerned.But as to this particular incidence,i think we will leave it until the final report of the investigation comes out.But of course as we say accident is acident and nobody goes out deliberately to summersault and die,but as to allegations yo claimed from the family,we are not aware and anybody who has anything to the contrary,that they didn't die in an accident is free to report to the law enforcement agencies who will appropriately take it up.The government decided to give employment to the children of the late minister because he was the breadwinner and the children are now orphans.On the other hand,the driver survived and the government is taking care of their medical bills at the National Hospital and they are also government workers as some of them are policemen,SSS and others.So they are on salary and are treated free,but God forbid that had any of them suffered the same fate as those who died,the President would have willingly included them in the list of beneficiaries''.Ocholi,his wife and son had died in a car crash on sunday on Kaduna-Abuja road.An interim report of the Federal Road Safety Commission {FRSC} had claimed that the driver of the car,James Elegbede,was over speeding and had no driver's license.More photos below.
