 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. We have been fully participating in all INEC activities without let or hindrance. NDC also fielded candidates, and fully pa...

 Construction of Somalia's new port in Mogadishu to begin next year


Somalia will launch construction of a new international-standard port in Mogadishu next year, Minister of Ports and Maritime Transport Abdulkadir Muhammed Nur announced during the International Maritime Organization (IMO) 34th General Assembly in London.


Nur said the facility will be fully integrated into global transit networks and include both a regional transit hub and a free zone.


“It will be a very large port, designed to connect Somalia not only regionally but internationally,” Nur told Anadolu Agency.


The minister noted that Mogadishu’s existing port—currently the country’s largest—is primarily used for local logistics and remains limited in its links to global shipping routes.


First in East Africa


Despite this, Nur highlighted that Mogadishu Port recently ranked first in East Africa in an index evaluating 407 ports worldwide, an achievement he credited to government-backed modernisation and technical upgrades.


“From this perspective, we don’t really need competition — we are already number one,” Nur said.


The Mogadishu Port operates around the clock, a shift that has eased congestion and reduced ship waiting times dramatically, authorities said.


"In 2020, ships sometimes waited at the port for several days to unload containers. Now, we've reduced this to six hours. The businesspeople who use this port are very pleased. Because the port is in use day and night, traffic in Mogadishu has also decreased," the nation’s ports boss said.


He attributed this achievement to the government’s investments in equipment and technical systems at Mogadishu Port.


Daily container handling has already risen by 20 percent, with plans to increase that to 50 percent. The port—operated by Turkish firm Albayrak Group—has boosted its capacity from 150,000 TEU to 180,000 TEU this year, with a target of reaching 250,000 TEU.


Nur added that the improvements have been well received: “Our business community is very satisfied with these developments.”


Somalia says it intends to deepen cooperation with Türkiye in the maritime sector. According to Nur, “Turkey is very advanced in this field. Somalia is just beginning to join the global maritime system, and with Africa’s longest coastline, we hope to develop rapidly. We want to benefit from Türkiye’s experience.”


The 34th IMO General Assembly in London, which opened on 24 November, will conclude on 3 December.
