 “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...

 I Don't Like Tinubu's Govt, But I Cannot Fight A Government When That the lord has Chosen- Primate Elijah Ayodele


Primate Elijah Ayodele, the Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, has spoken openly about Nigeria’s current political climate, declaring that though he does not support President Bola Tinubu’s administration personally, he accepts it as God’s will.


In a video message, the cleric said, “I don’t like Tinubu’s government, but I cannot fight a government when the Lord said, ‘This is it.’” He explained that as a prophet, his duty is to deliver divine messages rather than act based on personal preferences. 


According to him, once God has sanctioned a government, opposing it would mean resisting divine authority.


Despite this position, Ayodele cautioned the president against complacency. He stressed that Tinubu’s leadership must focus on the pressing needs of Nigerians, particularly rising food costs, widespread unemployment, insecurity, and the continuous decline of the naira. He noted that divine approval of leadership does not absolve any ruler from responsibility or accountability.


The cleric further stated that genuine governance should be measured by how it eases the struggles of ordinary citizens rather than how it protects political power. He reminded Tinubu that every leader will ultimately be judged by the impact of their policies on the people.


Ayodele also called on Nigerians to keep the government in prayers, stressing that national stability and progress would benefit everyone, irrespective of political divisions or personal opinions. He urged citizens to support positive efforts while continuing to hold leaders accountable.
