 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 Minister of State for Power, Mr. Goddy Jedy-Agba, OFR has said that the Federal Government is ready to partner with the Government of Senegal as well as other West African countries on power generation, in order to achieve positivity in the area of power, energy and rural electrification.

He stated this recently when the delegation from Senegal, led by the country’s Minister of Petroleum and Energy, Ms. Aissatou Sophie Gladima payed him a courtesy visit in Abuja Nigeria.

The Minister stated that as the world prepared for COP26, it was important for West African countries to discuss and come up with strong position that would represent the interests of the region and continent.

Agba, who identified funding as the major challenge affecting the Power sector in Africa, called on the United Nations and the World Bank to support the continent to develop its renewable energy sources. 

The Senegalese Minister of Petroleum and Energy, Aissatou Sophie Gladima,   said she was in Nigeria to seek how her country would collaborate with Nigeria in the area of electricity and power generation, noting that electricity deficit is a common problem in Africa.  However, there is need to work closely together to find sustainable solutions to the challenge.
