 NDC STATEMENT ON COURT RULING Our attention has been drawn to a ruling by the Federal High Court sitting in Lokoja this morning, wherein His Lordship, Honourable Justice Isah Dashen, gave a ruling on an application filed by an unregistered association known as Peace Movement Party. The public knows that by December 2025, the Nigeria Democratic Congress  as an association complained of INEC’s refusal to register us as a political party, whereupon we proceeded to the Federal High Court. The Federal High Court upheld our constitutional right to freedom of association under the Constitution and compelled INEC to register us, which INEC did. Since then, we have started political activities, embarked on the registration of members, held congresses from ward to national levels, held conventions, and concluded primaries to all offices following INEC’s timetable. We have been fully participating in all INEC activities without let or hindrance. NDC also fielded candidates, and fully pa...

 Cyclone Chido death toll in Mozambique rises to 73


The death toll in from Cyclone Chido in Mozambique has risen to 73, disaster management officials announced on Thursday, AA reported.


In a flash update, Luisa Meque, chairperson of the country’s National Disaster Risk Management Institute (INGD), said while the “assessment of the extent of the damage that the cyclone has caused to the Southern African nation continues, more bodies are being identified in the process.”


“We can’t ascertain the exact number of people who have died as a result of the storm,” she said.


Meque said that the number of injured is also increasing on a daily basis.


'Horrendous and overwhelming'


“Our situation is quite horrendous and overwhelming. We need a lot of support for us to establish the exact number of fatalities, otherwise, it’s becoming extremely hard for us to find bodies, because some are deep buried after buildings had collapsed on them,” she said.


“Much as the storm has calmed down, there is a likelihood that number of fatalities is going to rise as we are still assessing the extent of the damage,” Meque said.


About 2.5 million people are said to be affected by the cyclone, Meque said.


Children 'worst affected'


According to Louise Eagleton, Unicef Country Representative for Mozambique, about 90,000 children have been “worst affected” by the cyclone.


“Almost in all the affected communities, there are growing numbers of affected children. These are children who are struggling to find sustenance and shelter. Children are bearing the blunt of the cyclone. The current situation in the country is heart-rending,” Eagleton said.


On Wednesday, the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs disbursed out $4m in emergency response to the cyclone.


In the neighbouring Malawi, according to the country’s Department of Disaster and Management Affairs (DoDMA), the death toll has reached 13 and 45,000 people in five districts of the Southern region have been rendered homeless.


Strong winds and thunderstorms


On December 15, Tropical cyclone Chido made landfall in Mozambique, bringing strong winds, thunderstorms and heavy rainfall exceeding 250millimeters (9.84 i nches) in 24hours.
