 “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...

 Nnamdi Kanu's Family Reacts To Claim That Sowore Intentionally Handed Aloy Ejimakor And Emmanuel Kanu To FG


In a statement issued on Tuesday, The family of Nnamdi Kanu has reacted to several claims that former presidential candidate, Omoyele Sowore intentionally handed Kanu's lawyer, Aloy Ejimakor and his brother, Emmanuel to the Federal Government.


The statement surfaced after Aloy Ejimakor, Emmanuel Kanu and several other people were arrested during the protest that was organized by Omoyele Sowore in FCT.


The Nigeria Police charged Ejimakor, Emmanuel Kanu, and 10 others with a two-count offence of inciting public disturbance and breach of peace after they protested.


However, the family of Nnamdi Kanu has now responded to claims that Omoyele Sowore sold out those who were arrested. In a statement that was signed by Kanunta Kanu, the family backed the actions of Omoyele Sowore.


Kanunta stated that the activist did the right thing by mobilizing people to protest the release of Nnamdi Kanu. He said the claim that Omoyele Sowore sold out the people is mischievously incorrect.” Kanunta said majority of the people coming up with the claims are Igbo politicians who couldn't do what Omoyele Sowore did.


He accused some political elites in the South East of deliberately spreading falsehoods about Sowore out of embarrassment that “a non-Igbo had the courage to do what they could not.”


The family also accused the Federal Government of using state institutions to persecute Nnamdi Kanu and intimidate the Igbo people. They alleged that the recent arrests were meant to emotionally destabilize Kanu ahead of his court appearance scheduled for Thursday.


In the Kanunta Kanu, who spoke for the family, condemned the arrests, describing them as unlawful and provocative. He demanded the immediate release of Emmanuel, Ejimakor, and other demonstrators who were apprehended during what he said was a peaceful protest.
