 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.

 France Creates African Command Within Armed Forces


The French government has established an African command within the country's armed forces, appointing Brig. Gen. Pascal Ianni as its commander, Sputnik reported.


Paris is reviewing its military presence in Africa and the French army has set up an African command for the continent, according to the government's decree.


Discussions of the creation of the African command were being held against the backdrop of Paris reducing the number of its troops on the continent, sources told AFP earlier in the month, adding that the country's government planned to reduce its contingent in West and Central Africa to several hundred troops as part of an updated, more restrained partnership.


Paris plans to deploy about 100 troops in Gabon and Senegal, down from 350 previously deployed in each country. Military presence in Cote d'Ivoire is reportedly to be reduced from 600 to about 100, while in Chad, France will deploy around 300 troops, as opposed to the 1,000 previously present in the African country.
