 Political Unrest and Prison Breaks Amid Mozambique’s Disputed Election Results Over 1,500 prisoners escaped from a Mozambique prison amid violent protests triggered by disputed presidential election results. Tensions escalated after the ruling Frelimo party's victory was upheld by the constitutional court, leading to clashes that killed at least 33 people. The unrest allowed prisoners to break out, with 150 recaptured so far, while widespread looting and arson have further destabilized the country. The protests, fueled by opposition leader Venâncio Mondlane’s claims of election fraud, have resulted in over 150 deaths since October. By Christmas Eve, Maputo was a ghost town, with businesses shuttered and residents avoiding the violence. The ongoing chaos highlights the deep political and social divisions in Mozambique following the controversial election.

He reiterated the Federal Ministry’s role as the coordinating body and the FCT’s role as host.


The Abuja International Carnival continues to serve as a vibrant showcase of Nigeria’s rich cultural heritage and a platform for fostering international collaboration and understanding.

  SSANU, NASU threaten strike over withheld salaries The Joint Action Committee of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions have threatened to disrupt industrial peace in universities should the government fail to release the withheld salaries of members. The salaries were seized by the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari during their strike in 2022. The unions, in a joint letter signed on Friday by the President of SSANU, Muhammed Ibrahim and General Secretary of NASU, Peters Adeyemi, questioned the rationale with which the government released four months withheld salaries to members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities but failed to release the withheld salaries of non-academic staff.
