Portsudan — The Attorney General of the Republic of Sudan Al-Fatih Tayfour said that the judicial authorities can resort to issuing in absentia rulings for fugitive Rapid Support Forces (RSF) militia defendants present in 6 countries (he did not name them) if they do not surrender themselves to justice.

The time to act is now. The history we write today will shape the legacy we leave for future generations. Senator Oshiomhole’s intervention serves as a powerful call for a policy shift. Electricity should be treated as a basic necessity and made affordable for all citizens. While privatisation is not inherently flawed, the regulatory framework must be robustly enforced to ensure fairness. Citizens who invest in procuring infrastructure, such as transformers that eventually become the property of electricity companies, should be compensated. Furthermore, these costs should be reflected in the tariff system to ease the financial burden on consumers. Senator Adams Oshiomhole has long been known for his rare courage in speaking out against societal injustices. From his tenure as a labour leader to his time as a state governor, he consistently demonstrated an unwavering commitment to truth and justice, regardless of the interests at stake. His recent remarks on...

Partager vers les réseaux   Monsieur le Président, j’ai envie de vous poser une question toute simple, que se passe-t-il réellement sur le plan sécuritaire ? parce que les Nigériens ont eu dans un premier temps l’impression que les aspects géopolitiques liés à la sécurité ont largement évolué en faveur de notre pays et de notre Confédération AES, il ne restait plus que les aspects opérationnels sur le terrain qui sont d’ailleurs pris en charge par nos FDS et les armées de l’AES en général.   Merci de l’opportunité, une fois de plus, à nous offerte pour nous adresser au peuple nigérien et de façon plus globale, au peuple de la Confédération. Avant de répondre à votre question, nous tenons d’abord à exprimer une pensée particulière envers nos Forces de Défense et de Sécurité qui consentent le sacrifice ultime pour garder notre pays libéré, indépendant, désormais.
