 Flights suspended to Ethiopian holy town of Lalibela as fighting expands Flights to the historic Ethiopian town of Lalibela ​were suspended on Thursday due to fighting nearby, seven sources said, as residents in the Tigray region to the north stocked up on food and ‌cash, fearing that renewed fighting could trigger another major war.

 "I Supported Electronic Transmission of Election Results" – Senator Orji Uzor Kalu


Senator Orji Uzor Kalu has declared his full backing for the Senate’s decision to approve electronic transmission of election results directly from polling units.


In a statement after today’s emergency plenary, the Senator said: “Today at the emergency plenary, I supported and added my voice to the Senate’s new position approving the electronic transmission of election results from polling units across Nigeria.


“With the adoption of the amended Clause 60(3) of the Electoral Act, presiding officers are now permitted to transmit results electronically after Form EC8A has been duly completed and signed.


“This means electronic transmission becomes the primary method where the technology is available and functional. However, where it fails or becomes impossible, the duly signed Form EC8A remains the valid and primary source of results.


“This balanced approach strengthens transparency, fairness, and credibility in our electoral process, while ensuring that voters in network-challenged communities are not disenfranchised.


“Our democracy must work for every Nigerian, everywhere.”
