 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.

 Italy’s Top Court Grants Single People Right to Adopt Abroad


Italy’s Constitutional Court has ruled that single individuals can adopt children from abroad, overturning a law that previously restricted international adoptions to married couples.


Landmark Ruling Expands Adoption Rights


In a decision hailed as historic by opposition parties, the Rome-based court declared that banning single people from adopting internationally was unconstitutional.


The case stemmed from a 2019 request by a single woman in Florence, which was initially denied under a 1983 law but later referred to the Constitutional Court for review.


The court found that the law unfairly restricted parental rights, stating that:

Becoming a parent is a fundamental right linked to personal self-determination.

Single individuals can provide a stable and nurturing environment for abandoned children.

Judges must evaluate each adoption case based on the individual’s emotional and financial suitability.


Political and Social Reactions


The ruling challenges the traditional family values agenda of Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, a self-described “Christian mother”. Meloni, who leads a far-right government, campaigned on promoting traditional family structures.


Alessandro Zan, the Democratic Party’s rights spokesperson, praised the decision, urging the government to extend adoption rights to same-sex couples.


Legal experts suggest this ruling could pave the way for single individuals to seek adoption rights within Italy as well.
