The National Judicial Council (NJC) and the Court of Appeal have denied reports of the mysterious deaths of two of the justices who upheld the election of President Bola Tinubu in 2023.
According to the NJC and the Court of Appeal, these claims are false and misleading.
The rumours suggested that two of the five justices on the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal—Justice Mistura Bolaji-Yusuf and Justice Boloukuoromo Moses Ugo—died under suspicious circumstances. Social media posts claimed Justice Bolaji-Yusuf was found dead just hours after appearing to be in good health. Another rumour stated that Justice Ugo allegedly passed away following strange noises from his room, with family members reportedly finding him bleeding and unresponsive.
However, the NJC in a statement by its Secretary, Ahmed Gambo Saleh, labelled the reports as completely false.
“Please ignore the news; it is a lie. The Justices are alive, well, and doing their jobs,” Saleh assured the public.
Additionally, a senior official from the Court of Appeal condemned the rumours. The official described them as “the work of mischief-makers” and said that the justices were in good health.
It should be recalled that the panel of judges which upheld the election results of the February 25, 2023, presidential election, declared Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC) the legitimate winner. The tribunal dismissed petitions from opposition candidates Alhaji Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Mr Peter Obi of the Labour Party (LP), who both contested the results.
Frankston Crime Investigation Unit detectives continue to appeal for public assistance and will today conduct a search for missing Frankston North man Ronan.
The 54-year-old was last seen walking west along Beach Street at 6.12pm, and then walking past Kinetic Stadium on Kars Street about 6.45pm on Tuesday, 28 May.
Earlier in the afternoon, Ronan was seen leaving a medical facility on Hastings Road towards Frankston CBD. He was also seen walking past a chemist on Davey Street about 4.00pm.

Officers are also appealing for residents in Frankston South, specifically those residing in and around High Street, Warringa Road, Cliff Street and Foot Street, to check their properties and review any CCTV footage they might have from the 28 May.
Ronan is Caucasian in appearance and approximately 167cm tall with dark shoulder length hair and a grey beard.
He was wearing black tracksuit pants, a faded black hoodie, black runners, and black rimmed glasses.

The developer-driven growth of SUI and innovation have positioned it as a top Solana competitor, often called the “Solana Killer.”
While Sui’s technology impresses developers, Solana’s established community and stable user base keep it ahead.
Despite Sui’s strengths and growing adoption, some experts remain skeptical about its potential to overtake Solana. They have weighed both platforms, highlighting their strengths and challenges.
Sui Rise: A Potential Solana Challenger
Despite being a relatively new blockchain, Sui has gained significant traction, particularly for its impressive technical features.
Some experts believe it could outshine Solana in the long run. For instance, Tim Kravchunovsky, CEO of Chirp, chose Sui over Solana for his project. He highlighted Solana’s frequent outages as a key factor in his decision.
In an interviewKravchunovsky stated, “Solana seemed to be struggling to handle its increase in popularity. It was a red flag.”
Kravchunovsky believes that Sui offers a more scalable and reliable solution.
“We see Sui as a sort of Solana 2.0. I won’t hesitate to recommend Sui as the top choice for a robust network,” he added.
However, Sui is still relatively young and has not yet experienced the same level of popularity as Solana.
Despite Sui’s growing popularity among developers, Solana’s user experience remains strong. Solana has a larger, more stable user base, and its products are more developed.
A recent report from 21Shares pointed out that “Sui’s traction is largely driven by spikes in activity,” while Solana has shown steady growth. As a result, Solana maintains a stronger presence in the market.
Experts Weigh in on Sui Potential
Some analysts, like Raoul Pal, are bullish on Sui’s potential. Pal noted that Sui had shown relative strength in a stagnant marketa sign “worth paying attention to.”
He explained that Sui’s upward trend is impressive, even in challenging market conditions.
“$SUI is acting like it is going to be one of the key Chosen Ones of the major new chains, if not THE Chosen One,” says Paul.

Yet others remain cautious. Guy Turner from the Coin Bureau podcast shared that while Sui “meets the criteria of a crypto that retail could ape into,” demand is not moving in the right direction, which could impact Sui’s long-term success.
Moreover, a glance at Reddit reveals that many community members are doubtful.
Solana Still Dominates in User Experience
While Sui’s technology may attract developers, Solana’s mature ecosystem provides a better user experience.
According to developer Kylebuildsstuff, Solana’s user experience currently is better, and the ecosystem is much more mature. In a July interviewhe explained that while Sui may raise standards for developers, the user experience ultimately matters.
“Users don’t care about the underlying tech. They care about things that make their lives better,” Kylebuildsstuff noted.
With both platforms offering unique advantages, the blockchain space is far from settled. Whether Sui will become a “Solana Killer” remains to be seen, but the race is on.
$SUI: Firedancer equivalent launching
Today, I’m going to share a very overlooked play that could be rewarding in either spot or perps. After we nuked, markets have been craving a narrative or ‘’fundamental’’ play. Memecoins are (rightfully) the place to be right now. Despite me… pic.twitter.com/x0kbYUwURC

The ANC will appeal the Durban excessive court’s rejection of its picture to forestall veteran president Jacob Zuma’s contemporary birthday party from the utilization of the Umkhonto we Sizwe title and emblem.
ANC secretary-long-established Fikile Mbalula stated the resolve erred in his ruling and didn’t take care of the trademark arguments positioned sooner than the court but as a replace “dabbled in politics”.
“The ANC will appeal the matter to forestall and restrict the unlawful employ of the ANC’s trademark, symbols and heritage by Zuma’s birthday party currently referring to itself as the Umkhonto we Sizwe Event [MKP],” stated Mbalula.
Earlier, the court ruled the ANC had not made out a case for the comfort it sought, its utility used to be not pressing and it could maybe must hold approached the Electoral Courtroom, not the excessive court.
Within the utility regarded as by the excessive court, the birthday party relied on the Trademarks Act to illustrate Zuma’s birthday party used to be misrepresenting itself as being connected or linked to the ANC by the utilization of the ANC’s notorious emblem and title Umkhonto we Sizwe.
Mbalula stated in appealing the judgment the ANC will centre on the build a question to of whether or not the unauthorised employ of one’s mental property is consistent with what and how the unauthorised birthday party uses the property.
“We imagine the goodwill linked to Umkhonto we Sizwe is that of the ANC. It’s that this goodwill Zuma’s birthday party is making an strive to unduly appropriate unto itself.
“The ANC used to be and is the coronary heart and soul of Umkhonto we Sizwe. We imagine an appeal is warranted.”
Mbalula stated they grew to change into concerned about resolve Mahendra Chetty’s line of questioning when the matter used to be heard in court earlier this month.
“In our peep, the judgment is political, it doesn’t take care of what we positioned sooner than him. It’s dejected, we are disappointed by that.
“We’re not arguing Umkhonto we Sizwe vs the ANC. We’re asserting Umkhonto we Sizwe is ours, right here is the trademark; he doesn’t consult with that within the judgment. Nothing about that, it’s appropriate politics. It’s littered with politics.”
The ANC will appeal the trademark case to the supreme court if needs be, stated Mbalula.
As an organisation that values the reasonably a couple of facets of democracy, the birthday party is not adversarial to Zuma’s birthday party’s presence on the ballot, but in bringing the case the ANC is defending its mental property and the legacy of the liberation battle for future generations, he stated.
“We now hold stated it over and all all over again; can also restful Zuma attach a birthday party, title it after anything without appropriating to himself the property of the ANC. We would don’t hold anything to achieve with that. We’re not against any formation in our nation.
“Nonetheless future generations must know this democracy stands on the shoulders of males and females folk who joined Umkhonto we Sizwe at the time when being linked to the ANC used to be almost a loss of life sentence.”
Zuma’s MK Event is a “disruption” that needs to dictate phrases.
“They’re hoping we can tumble beneath 50% and they’ll dictate phrases about what must occur within the nation. That’s what Zuma is set. Right here’s not a political birthday party, it’s a mission, a mission to disrupt the ANC and not for any reasonably a couple of motive but Zuma’s curiosity.”
With regards Zuma’s membership of the ANC, Mbalula stated the birthday party has not called a reasonably a couple of meeting of its national executive committee to rethink its decision now that Zuma has registered his beget birthday party.
“He has moved many steps since the time we suspended him as an organisation.
“He has fashioned a birthday party, he is now a frontrunner. After we suspended him he used to be appropriate a supporter. Now he is the leader, he is within the ballotagainst the ANC and he campaigns against the ANC.”
