 “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.

In a decisive move to unravel the mysterious disappearance of children in the State, especially in Oba and its environs, Police Operatives attached to the Oba Division on 11th August 2025, acting on credible intelligence, apprehended one Ngozi Muotuanya, female, of Awkuzu-Oba aged 63 years.


Preliminary investigations revealed that sometime in 2024, the suspect allegedly stole a male child, aged about one year, in Minna, Niger State, and sold him to an unsuspecting member of the public in Anambra State. The said suspect later resold the child to another person. 


However, on 4th August 2025, the receiver, upon realising that the child had been stolen, returned him to the principal suspect. The suspect, in turn, allegedly abandoned the child at an unascertained church in Minna, where he was rescued by the Leader of the Igbo Community in Minna. 


Meanwhile, the Command has relayed information about the custodian of the Child in Minna to the Niger State Police Command for  possible recovery and reunification with his parents and other necessary action.


The suspect shall be transferred to the State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID) Awka for discreet investigation and prosecution.
