 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.

Adesina said: “Nwabufo brings deep knowledge of the Bank, vast senior management experience in different parts of the Bank, from finance to human resources, corporate services, budget management and operations.


“Which will be highly valuable in her new role in charge of country and regional operations and offices.

“I am confident that Nnenna’s managerial and leadership skills and deep operational experience will support all the Bank’s sector vice-presidents.

“To deliver and manage their operations and portfolios more effectively on the ground, and deepen policy dialogues, across countries and regions.”

Responding, Nwabufo welcomed her appointment, saying: “I am deeply grateful to Adesina for appointing me as vice- president for Regional Development, Integration and Business Delivery.

“I look forward to working closely with the president, the boards of directors, fellow senior managers and our talented staff to continue advancing the Bank’s development mission.

“Together, we will strengthen partnerships, ensure operational efficiency, and drive sustainable, inclusive growth across Africa.”
