Great choice you've made. To be a member of ADC or any other party is the same.

In you local LGA ask for the ward you're in. Ward means area and meeting venue. As simple as that..

All these statistics are lame. Not when hunger is ravaging the people.

What then how will a family cope. This is brutal.i hope those in authority are listening.

We want equal rights and justices sir. That is what Nigeria needs. Not promises.

Wow. So southafrica s are not Saints after all.

Mkhwanazi said more than 100 case files were taken away from the political killings task team and have not been investigated further since.

Yet some of them crawl to nairaland to cry about organised crime.

South African President Cyril Ramaphosa placed police minister Senzo Mchunu on immediate leave of absence on Sunday, following accusations by a top police official that he had colluded with a criminal syndicate and interfered in high-profile investigations.

Mchunu denied the allegations by Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi, police commissioner of KwaZulu-Natal province, at a media briefing last Sunday. He said the accusations were baseless and in a statement issued by his spokesperson last week said he was committed to upholding the rule of law.

Ramaphosa, whose rise to the highest office was built on promises to fight corruption, has been under pressure to act swiftly as political parties and citizens said the allegations called into question the integrity of the criminal justice system.

South African President Cyril Ramaphosa placed police minister Senzo Mchunu on immediate leave of absence on Sunday, following accusations by a top police official that he had colluded with a criminal syndicate and interfered in high-profile investigations.

Mchunu denied the allegations by Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi, police commissioner of KwaZulu-Natal province, at a media briefing last Sunday. He said the accusations were baseless and in a statement issued by his spokesperson last week said he was committed to upholding the rule of law.

Ramaphosa, whose rise to the highest office was built on promises to fight corruption, has been under pressure to act swiftly as political parties and citizens said the allegations called into question the integrity of the criminal justice system.

“These allegations therefore call for an urgent and comprehensive investigation,” Ramaphosa said in a public address which was carried by the public broadcaster and private TV stations, adding he would establish a judicial commission of inquiry for this purpose.

Ramaphosa said he will appoint law professor Firoz Cachalia as acting minister of police.

Mchunu is a senior figure in Ramaphosa’s African National Congress (ANC) party, and political analysts have said he could run for a leadership position at the ANC’s next elective conference in 2027.

Citing digital evidence such as WhatsApp messages, Mkhwanazi’s allegations included that Mchunu had disbanded a police unit tasked with investigating politically motivated killings to protect politicians, police officers and other people linked to a criminal syndicate.

Mkhwanazi said more than 100 case files were taken away from the political killings task team and have not been investigated further since.

The Democratic Alliance party, the ANC’s main coalition partner, called for a parliamentary inquiry into the allegations against Mchunu. At least one opposition party has called for his suspension

Well said but that didn't bring healing. The 2 countries are still Miles apart.

Coming together was for mutual understanding and peace but its festered XENOPHOBIA.

[quote author=Lioness5280 post=136099897]@ xenophobia is when you go into another man's Land to kidnap, drug rape,traffic young girls; grooming them as prostitutes and justifying it with all sorts of absurditities.

How you introduce yourselves in a nation is what they'll know as.


You talk as if South Africans are made in heaven.
There are South African companies in Nigeria under investigation for tax and wire fraud.

Crime is everywhere but how you manage it is what counts.

In the United States South Africans bow to there's high gun violence. You can be killed without any wrong doing.

China which is. Your biggest trade. Partner has the highest number of foreign nationals in Nigerian prison for Internet and identity fraud.

I'm not saying there are no bad Nigerians but the way you blow it up in the media isn't good.

Fact check South African men are known for domestic violence and are wife beaters.

The fool says in his heart there's no God. Psalm 14:1.

Satan is trying to change every thing and he's winning but for the elect he has been exposed.

Many phenomenons where used by God to admonish and teach man but today Satan is bending them.

This Houthis get coconut head. One truth can solve this problem.

10 rescued, 3 killed and others ‘kidnapped’ after Houthis sink ship in second Red Sea attack in a week

CNN
—
Ten people have been rescued from the Red Sea after their ship sank near Yemen following an attack by the Houthis, according to the European Union’s maritime security mission, with several others believed to be being held by the rebel group.

The Houthis said they had taken some of those on board to an undisclosed location following the attack on the Eternity C, the second time they have targeted commercial shipping in the Red Sea this week. Maritime security sources told Reuters that the Yemeni militia was believed to be holding six crew members.

Three of the 25 people on board were killed in the attack, the EU’s Operation Aspides told CNN.

The ship’s crew consisted of 22 members – 21 Filipinos and one Russian – while a three-person security team was also on board, according to the EU mission, which coordinates rescue operations in the Red Sea.

The mission said that of the ten people recovered from the water on Wednesday and overnight into Thursday, eight were Filipino crew members, while the other two were security personnel, of Greek and Indian nationality.

The Eternity C, a commercial bulk carrier flying Liberian flag and operated by a Greek firm, was attacked for days by the Houthis with multiple rocket-propelled grenades from small craft, according to the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations agency (UKMTO). The ship sank Wednesday morning, UKMTO said.

The Houthis, an Iran-backed group which controls large parts of Yemen, claimed responsibility in a statement Wednesday, saying they targeted the Eternity C with “an unmanned boat and six cruise and ballistic missiles” as it allegedly headed toward the Israeli port of Eilat. They asserted the ship was “completely sunk” and that their forces had rescued some crew members, providing medical care before taking them to an undisclosed location.

The US mission to Yemen accused the Houthis of kidnapping the crew members and called for their immediate release.

A video released by the Houthis shows a ship heavily damaged and sinking after a rocket attack. The footage includes prior radio communications in which the Houthis assured the ship’s crew of their safety.

The loss of the ship marks the second sinking by the Houthis this week, following an attack on the cargo vessel Magic Seas on Sunday which caused its crew to abandon ship. The Yemeni group has repeatedly targeted ships it claims have Israeli links, vowing to continue until Israel ends its military campaign in Gaza.

The rebels said in a statement: “We will continue our military operations in support of the oppressed Palestinian people… until the aggression against Gaza stops and the siege is lifted.”

In May, the group agreed to halt attacks on US warships in the Red Sea after more than a month of airstrikes by US forces on its strongholds and missile infrastructure.

But it did not pledge to end attacks on other shipping with alleged connections to Israel, and the two incidents over the past few days have intensified fears of a renewed shipping crisis on the vital global trade route.

Nothing to hear from imperialist. Absolutely nothing.

If you have plans of traveling to America just wait till a more sensible government takes over.

This senile show put up by trump is just too boring

All you mentioned are created by the leaders themself.
If we don't stand by laws and rule no talk about progress will come to reqlitym

Newyorkitis:
Stand tall with what?
Small Boko Haram we cannot handle here at home.
Which African country fit stand tall against the USA?
Gragra is not worth it.

African leaders need to stand tall in the face of imperialist.

Good leadership cannot be over emphasised. If not for poor leadership why will you travel to America a violent nation. Where guns are sold in shops and yet the home nation is complaining about violence

True talk but going to the extreme Is unfair. Nobody nose tomorrow the people you look down on might be Kings the next day.

Don27tiky:
wont you be happy if we have such a leader? Most people parading as Nigerians are actually from Niger, chad Mali. They are the cause of the insecurity
Europe and America are trying secure their countries for the future

Trump has gone on full insanity mode. Trying to make nothing out of nothing. Immigration will not end. Stop deceiving people.

Says a nairaland. Urchin.
