 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.

 Super Eagles Arrive Safely in Uyo After Tense Flight Delay for World Cup Qualifier


Nigeria’s Super Eagles landed safely at Victor Attah International Airport in Uyo at 8:05 AM today, ending a dramatic 12-hour travel ordeal caused by a technical fault on their flight from South Africa. The team, preparing for a critical 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Benin Republic on Tuesday, was delayed after a mid-air emergency forced their plane to return to Luanda, Angola.


Team media officer Promise Efoghe confirmed the arrival in a statement, saying, “Finally, Super Eagles arrive in Uyo, Akwa Ibom. The team touched down at 8:05 a.m. Sunday morning.” A video released by the team’s media department captured players and officials disembarking from the replacement ValueJet aircraft, marking the resolution of a journey that began late Saturday in Polokwane, South Africa.


The trouble started shortly after takeoff from Luanda, where the aircraft had stopped for refueling following the team’s preparations in South Africa. About 25 minutes into the flight, a loud crack appeared on the windscreen, prompting the pilot to make an emergency U-turn back to Luanda. The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) confirmed that all players, officials, and government delegates disembarked safely, crediting the pilot for expertly managing the situation.


The NFF stated that ValueJet Airline collaborated with Nigerian authorities, including the Ministers of Aviation and Foreign Affairs, and the Chief of Staff to the President, to secure permits for a replacement aircraft from Lagos. The new plane successfully completed the trip, bringing the team to Uyo early Sunday.


Coach Eric Chelle’s squad now shifts focus to the upcoming match at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium, a pivotal encounter as Nigeria seeks to secure qualification for the 2026 FIFA World Cup after a challenging campaign. The safe arrival has eased concerns, allowing the team to prepare for Tuesday’s crucial showdown against Benin Republic.
