Flood deaths rise to 33 in central China

The death toll following severe flooding in China’s Henan province and its capital Zhengzhou has risen to at least 33.
At least eight people were still missing, the authorities announced on Thursday.
Since last Friday when the heavy rains began, at least 376,000 people in the province had been brought to safety from danger zones.
According to official figures, at least 25 people died in Zhengzhou alone after the heaviest rainfall in the region since weather records began.
Videos showed how some of the multi-lane roads in the metropolis of nine million people had turned into raging rivers on Tuesday.
The water masses also flooded the metro, where hundreds of people were temporarily trapped in trains and tunnels. (dpa/NAN) (www.nannews.ng)

Opposition no longer safe with recruitment of Osun PDP members into Amotekun – APM

The Allied Peoples Movement (APM) in Osun State has raised concerns over the alleged recruitment of members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) into the state’s Amotekun Corps, claiming it threatens the safety of opposition members.
In a statement issued on Friday, APM Chairman, Mr. Adewale Adebayo, criticized the recruitment process, alleging that non-PDP applicants were deliberately screened out. He warned that Amotekun, originally created to enhance security, was being turned into a political tool.
“We are disturbed by the protest by well-meaning Osun residents who applied but were deliberately excluded because they are not PDP members,” Adebayo stated.
He further alleged that over 1,000 PDP members had been recruited into the corps, describing it as an attempt to silence opposition voices. According to him, the recruitment exercise was merely a formality to cover up a pre-arranged selection process favoring ruling party members.
APM has called for the resignation of the Corps Commandant and Field Commandant of Amotekun, demanding an apology to the affected applicants and the people of the state. The party insisted that the security outfit must remain apolitical to maintain public trust.
Neither the Osun State Government nor the leadership of Amotekun has responded to the allegations as of the time of this report.
