The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has revealed that it collected the list of candidates of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers State because there was no court order or judgment barring it from doing so. The Supreme Court had on October 22, 2018, descended on the Port Harcourt Division of the Court of Appeal for granting an application in favour of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in respect of the conduct of the party’s congresses in the state. A five-man panel of the Supreme Court, in its unanimous judgment, held that the Court of Appeal committed “a sacrilegious exercise of discretion” by favouring the APC in its June 21, 2018, judgment despite the party’s decision to conduct its congresses in Rivers State in disobedience of subsisting orders of the court. The Supreme Court faulted the action of the APC, and described the conduct of the party’s ward, local government and state congresses of May 19, 20 and 21, 2018, respectively, in River...

Spanish Prime Minister, Mariano Rajoy, is to face a vote of confidence in his leadership on Friday as corruption convictions handed down to dozens of people linked to his center-right People’s Party (PP) threatened his six-year rule. Spain’s parliament agreed on Monday that the debate and vote would take place on Thursday and Friday, although the opposition Socialists, who proposed the vote, may struggle to garner enough support in the fragmented legislature to unseat Rajoy. Opposition parties are taking advantage of Rajoy’s weakness after 29 people linked to the PP were convicted on Thursday of crimes including influence-peddling and falsifying accounts, in the culmination of a long-running corruption trial. The PP has closed ranks behind Rajoy, who said on Friday he intended to serve out his four-year term and that the corruption convictions did not affect a single member of his government.
