 “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...

 PRESS RELEASE - 09/04/2024


To the Editors,


COURT CONTEMPT: The National Security Adviser(NSA), Malam Nuhu Ribadu, Intercedes for Malam Idriss with emphasis on peaceful coexistence


It can be recalled that, on 5th February 2024, the Bauchi State Police Command declared the renowned Islamic cleric, Malam Idriss Abdulaziz Dutsen Tanshi wanted, gazetted for contempt of court. Such action is hereby suspended. However, today on 8th April, 2024, Commissioner of Police Bauchi State Command CP Auwal Musa Mohammad, psc, in his effort and dedication to promoting peaceful coexistence and harmonious relations among the figures in the State, spearheaded a peace pact between Malam Idriss Abdulaziz and the Government of Bauchi State at the Police State headquarters. The peace pact was signed and witnessed by the Director, Department of State Security Services (DSS), the Commandant Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), and the Attorney General and Commissioner of Justice, Bauchi state.


The Commissioner of Police as the Chairman of the Security and Allied Agency in Bauchi State, resolved to ensure that the communication gap that was identified as the causative agent among others responsible for deteriorating the relationship between the parties would be addressed without hesitation. He expressed his unequivocal appreciation to the Executive Governor of Bauchi State Sen. BALA MOHAMMED ABDULKADIR, CON, (KAURAN BAUCHI) for honouring the call of NSA and other relevant stakeholders for the peace accord and maintained that, the written commitment that was signed would be judiciously observed by the parties concerned.


Malam Idris Abdulaziz Dutsen Tanshi should understand that while he enjoys the right to freedom of speech, he should not use the pulpit as a platform to insult or make derogatory and abusive statements against preachers/clerics. He should strive to foster an atmosphere of peace and harmony within the community through his preaching, regardless of differences in opinion or religious beliefs. It is, therefore, imperative that he respects constituted authority henceforth


We hope that this marks the beginning of a new era of cooperation and understanding in Bauchi State.


The Bauchi State Command's Police Public Relations Officer, SP Ahmed Mohammed Wakil, ANIPR, issued this statement on behalf of the Commissioner of Police.


Thank you.
