 “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.

NGIGE WAS A MINISTER UNDER APC, SO THE IDEA THAT THE TINUBU ADMINISTRATION IS USING EFCC TO TARGET OPPOSITION POLITICIANS IS JUST A TIRED STRATEGY TO AVOID THE ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM- RENO OMOKRI . (PHOTO).


 Ngige was a minister under APC, so the idea that the Tinubu administration is using EFCC to target opposition politicians is just a tired strategy to avoid the elephant in the room- Reno Omokri 


New appoint Ambassador of Nigeria and Former presidential Aide, Reno Omokri has debunked the claim that Tinubu's administration is using EFCC to target politicians in opposition parties. He cited the case of the former governor of Anambra and who was also a minister of the federal Republic of Nigeria under APC. In his statement Reno mentioned that;


"Chris Ngige, a former Governor and Minister under the APC, to whom he is still very loyal, and even attended its recent caucus meeting a week ago, was recently arrested by the anti-graft body.The case of Mr Ngige is a very strong defence because this is a tried and tested ally of the President"


Reno posit that If anyone is being investigated or prosecuted for corruption, his or her  only defence should be that they are innocent, not that they are being picked on because they are an opposition politician. 


He also maintained  that those who are now heating Tinubu led APC Government with cries of a one-party state are just sore losers who lost elections in their party and refused to stay in that fold to build it up.
