 NDC STATEMENT ON COURT RULING Our attention has been drawn to a ruling by the Federal High Court sitting in Lokoja this morning, wherein His Lordship, Honourable Justice Isah Dashen, gave a ruling on an application filed by an unregistered association known as Peace Movement Party. The public knows that by December 2025, the Nigeria Democratic Congress  as an association complained of INEC’s refusal to register us as a political party, whereupon we proceeded to the Federal High Court. The Federal High Court upheld our constitutional right to freedom of association under the Constitution and compelled INEC to register us, which INEC did. Since then, we have started political activities, embarked on the registration of members, held congresses from ward to national levels, held conventions, and concluded primaries to all offices following INEC’s timetable. We have been fully participating in all INEC activities without let or hindrance. NDC also fielded candidates, and fully pa...

Princess Diana's Dress Breaks New Fashion Record Sells for £900,000


A gown worn by Princess Diana broke a new fashion record, going under the hammer in Hollywood for over £900,000.

The ballerina-length velvet evening dress was worn by the late Princess in 1985 whilst on a royal tour in Italy with her then-husband Charles, and again to the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra in 1986.

Sold alongside a matching illustration, it fetched a grand total of 1,148,080 US dollars (£904,262) at Julien’s Auctions.

It had previously been estimated by experts as likely to sell for 100,000 dollars (£78,776).

But due to its actual sale price, the gown, which came complete with shoulder pads, a blue organza skirt, a large bow, and a sash, is now the new record holder as the most expensive dress worn by Diana sold at auction.

The previous record holder, a 1991 velvet gown by Victor Edelstein, fetched 604,800 dollars (£476,437) at an auction in January.

The collector’s item worn by Diana was constructed with fabric chosen by world-renowned textile merchant Jakob Schlaepher and featured metallic embroidered stars carefully threaded by the design team at Jacques Azagury.

The ballerina skirt was considered a nod to her patronage of the English National Ballet and her love of dance.

Diana went on to wear several Jacques Azagury pieces during her time with the royal family, with the Moroccan-British fashion designer creating her wedding dress for her 1981 nuptials to Charles.

Also on sale at the Julien’s Auctions and TCM Present: Hollywood Legends events was a blouse worn by Diana for her 1981 engagement portrait.

The pink crepe blouse, which features a ruff-like collar and loose pleats to the front, was worn by Diana and was captured on film by royal photographer Lord Snowdon.

It sold for 381,000 dollars (£300,990), nearly four times its original estimate of 80,000 dollars.
