 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.

 Ekong: Eagles didn’t demand special bonus — we only want outstanding allowances cleared


William Troost-Ekong says the Super Eagles are not boycotting training due to a special bonus demand ahead of the African playoffs for the 2026 World Cup.

In a tweet on Tuesday, the Eagles captain confirmed the team boycotted training over unpaid allowances and bonuses by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF).

Ekong was reacting to reports that the players had demanded an increase in their bonuses for the World Cup playoffs.

The players and officials refused to carry out their scheduled Tuesday evening training session in protest.

TheCable understands that players are yet to receive their allowances for qualifying for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) and the 2026 World Cup playoff.

Some older members of the team are reportedly owed bonuses dating back to 2019.

Nigeria play Gabon in one of the semi-finals for the 2026 African World Cup playoffs on Thursday.

The winner of the match will face either Congo DR or Cameroon in the final to clinch the sole slot to represent Africa at the intercontinental playoff.

All the 24 players invited by Eric Chelle, the team’s manager, are currently in Rabat. The players are not expected back in training except the outstanding issue is addressed.

Ekong added that all the players want is a quick resolution and to “focus on the big games ahead”.
