 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.

A MAN WAS SPARED FROM EXECUTION MINUTES BEFORE IT WAS SET TO TAKE PLACE. (PHOTO).


 Tremane Wood spared from execution minutes before it was set to take place

Tremane Wood’s life was spared Thursday when Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt granted clemency just minutes before his scheduled execution. Wood, who has been incarcerated at the Oklahoma State Penitentiary in McAlester for more than 20 years, was set to be put to death for a 2002 felony murder conviction.

Stitt accepted the recommendation of the state’s prison and parole board to commute Wood’s sentence to life in prison without the possibility of parole, marking only the second time the governor has granted clemency during his tenure. Wood had been convicted of the death of Ronnie Wipf during a failed robbery, though his attorneys argued that Wood’s brother, Zjaiton, was the one who actually killed Wipf. Zjaiton, who received life without parole for his role, died in prison in 2019 and reportedly admitted to stabbing Wipf. The U.S. Supreme Court had denied a last-minute request from Wood’s lawyers to halt the execution. In a statement, Stitt called Wood a “violent offender” and said the new sentence remains “a severe punishment” while keeping him off the streets.
