 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.

MEXICO’S DEADLY FLOODS HIGHLIGHT GAPS IN SEVERE WEATHER WARNING SYSTEMS. (PHOTO).


 Mexico’s deadly floods highlight gaps in severe weather warning systems

Recent torrential rains in east-central Mexico, which have claimed at least 72 lives and left dozens missing, are highlighting ongoing challenges in the country’s ability to warn residents of severe weather in time. Authorities have described last week’s floods and landslides as unpredictable, while residents reported never experiencing anything similar. Researchers note that what was once considered extreme or unusual weather is increasingly normal due to climate change, making timely preparation and warning systems essential.

Experts point to gaps in both technology and public awareness. Mexico lacks sufficient river-level monitoring equipment and comprehensive weather radar coverage, limiting the precision of forecasts. Even when forecasts exist, officials often fail to implement robust prevention strategies for compounded weather events. In Veracruz, for example, the forecasted rainfall the day before the rivers overflowed was nearly eight inches, but actual rainfall tripled that amount, and many residents were caught off guard. Observers stress that education and training are critical: civil defense alerts must be accompanied by public understanding of the risks, much like earthquake warnings that have become more widely comprehended over the decades. As cleanup and rescue efforts continue, officials emphasize that effective preparation and communication can prevent disasters from turning deadly.
