 “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...

 PFN declares 40 days of fasting, prayer over hardship in Nigeria


…Says ‘Nigeria is Like a Mother in Labour’


The Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN), led by its National President, Bishop Francis Wale Oke, has declared a 40-day period of prayer and fasting to address the hardships facing the nation, calling on Nigerians to seek divine intervention for relief and prosperity.


Bishop Oke, alongside PFN Deputy President Archbishop John Praise Daniel, briefed journalists in Abuja on Thursday, announcing that the prayer and fasting campaign will begin on January 6, 2025, and culminate with a national prayer gathering in Abuja on February 14, 2025.


The prayer campaign will precede PFN’s 18th Biennial Conference, scheduled for February 10 to 14 in Abuja, under the theme “The Rebirth of a Great Nation: Nigeria is Great.”


Bishop Oke emphasized that the PFN is mobilizing Pentecostal churches, Christians, and all willing Nigerians to join in praying for the nation’s revival.


He stated, “In the Bible, when judgment was pronounced on Nineveh, the king and the people cried out for mercy, and God heard their prayers. We believe that the same God who delivered Nineveh is alive today and will hear our cry.


“This period of prayer and fasting is a key aspect of our biennial conference. We believe God will answer our prayers.


“Nigeria’s challenges are our collective responsibility—not just that of the leaders, but also of the citizens. Together, through cooperation and commitment, we can bring Nigeria out of hardship. Our part is to pray, educate, and support efforts at every level.”


Reflecting on the current state of the nation, Bishop Oke compared it to a mother in labour: “Nigeria is in a painful process, like a mother about to deliver. But we believe that a new Nigeria will emerge.”


Archbishop John Praise Daniel reiterated the organization’s commitment to Nigeria’s peace and progress, expressing optimism that Nigeria is on the path to greatness.

He added, “No matter the challenges, Nigeria is on the brink of achieving greatness. We foresee a future where Nigeria becomes a model for the world. We believe that, through prayer and fasting, God will heal our land.


“The Bible says that the prayer of faith can save the sick. Nigeria, like a sick nation, will be saved, and a future of prosperity, economic strength, and peace will follow. Kidnapping, banditry, and bloodshed will be in the past, and Nigeria will fulfill its destiny as a great nation.”


According to Archbishop Daniel, the conference will feature prominent Nigerians addressing national issues and offering guidance on collective solutions to the country’s challenges.
