 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.

Sicilian landslide forces 1,500 residents to evacuate as homes hang on cliff edge

   

 Italian Premier Giorgia Meloni visited the Sicilian town of Niscemi on Wednesday after a massive landslide, triggered by days of heavy rains from Cyclone Harry, left homes teetering on a cliff and forced the evacuation of over 1,500 residents. The landslide stretched about 4 kilometers (2.5 miles), with images showing cars and buildings plunged 20 meters down the newly formed cliff, while many other houses remain dangerously perched at the edge. Civil protection teams established a 150-meter “no-go zone” around the most unstable areas near the town, which lies just inland from Gela.

Officials warned that the waterlogged, shifting ground makes returning unsafe, and long-term relocation may be necessary for families affected. Sicily’s regional authorities estimate damages across the island at 2 billion euros, while the federal government declared a state of emergency for three southern regions, initially allocating 100 million euros ($120 million) for immediate relief. Meloni, who toured the area by helicopter, promised further financial support, assistance in securing alternative housing, and restoration of utilities, roads, and schools. Experts noted that Niscemi’s hill, built on sand and clay layers prone to heavy rain, has a history of landslides, including a major one in 1997. The disaster has also reignited political debate over construction on high-risk land and calls to redirect funds from other projects to aid affected communities.
