 “No electricity, no vote,” South Africans threaten to shun ruling party ANC Residents in Katlehong, a township outside Johannesburg, have resolved to boycott South Africa's upcoming local elections on November 4 due to long-standing failures by authorities to provide basic services like electricity. For over 20 years, around 180 households in the community have relied on illegal electrical connections pulled from neighboring areas to power their homes. Angry over the lack of formal grid infrastructure, residents are directing their frustration at the ruling African National Congress (ANC). "We have made a collective decision: no electricity, no vote," said community leader Lesiba Rankapole, 59. "We know it is illegal, but we had no choice because we cannot live without electricity. Our children cannot progress without electricity." "I was born ANC, but today I do not want anyone to tell me about the ANC because I am suffering," added 57-year-old resid...

ABUJA HIGH COURT GRANTED ANITA AND PAUL OKOYE DIVORCE. (PHOTOS).


Abuja High Court sitting in Maitama has formerly granted Anita Okoye and Paul Okoye divorce.

Recall that in August 2021, Anita Okoye filed for divorce after 8 years of marriage.

Anita Okoye cited five major reasons for her decision to divorce her husband: "cheating, a claimed separation, being an absent parent, fraud, and difficult experiences."

She, therefore, requested a settlement of $20,000 monthly as well as a number of Paul' houses.

Earlier on, in her divorce petition signed by her lawyer, Ojonimi Akpe and Okutepa J.S, Anita had claimed that she contributed N10 million as an agreement with Paul that she would be granted space at the mall he had just completed in Lekki Phase 1, Lagos.

However, she accused Paul Okoye of cheating her out of the deal.

The petition reads in part, "That I know as a fact that the Petitioner founded a company called TannkCo in 2019.

"That the Petitioner and the Respondent agreed to build a mall where TannkCo would have its main offices, and the Petitioner contributed N10,000,000.00 (Ten Million Naira) for the purchase of the land and the building of the mall.

"That I know as a fact that the Respondent, upon completion of the mall, reneged on the agreement and failed to give TannkCo a space in the mall."

However, Anita, who participated in court sessions via Zoom because she now lives in the US, was unable to prove all of the claims in her petition to the court.

As a result, she decided to withdraw all her claims and opted to settle.

The court, in its judgment, only granted joint custody of the children to the parties in the ruling on the case on October 20, 2022.

The petitioner (Anita) was, however, not given any money in the form of alimony or settlement.

Paul has moved on to a younger woman, while Anita is in the US with their 3 kids.
