 “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...

 WWE Raw: Jey Uso earns No. 1 contender spot following vacated world title

Jey Uso has secured the No. 1 contender spot for the World Heavyweight Championship after the title was vacated on WWE Raw.

Raw General Manager Adam Pearce opened Monday’s show by revealing that champion Seth Rollins had suffered an injury requiring surgery, sidelining him for an extended period. Rollins had been betrayed last week by his partners, Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed, along with manager Paul Heyman.

During the show, Breakker, Reed, and Heyman—collectively known as The Vision—met with Pearce while Breakker still held the championship. Reluctantly, Breakker handed the title to Pearce, who announced a Battle Royal later in the main event to determine a new No. 1 contender. Pearce barred Breakker and Reed from participating due to their attack on Rollins.

CM Punk, previously named a No. 1 contender last week, provided commentary for the Battle Royal, which featured Raw’s top stars. Wrestlers were eliminated if thrown over the top rope with both feet hitting the floor.

The final four came down to Jey Uso, his twin brother Jimmy Uso, LA Knight, and “Dirty” Dominik Mysterio. Jey Uso eliminated LA Knight and then surprised his brother by tossing Jimmy Uso over the top rope. Mysterio nearly eliminated Jey, but he held on to win the match.

Jey Uso will now face CM Punk at Saturday Night’s Main Event on Nov. 1 for the vacated World Heavyweight Championship.
