Dr. Ekua Amoako, a communications team member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has questioned the ongoing attacks by the National Democratic Congress (NDC) on Electoral Commissioner Jean Mensa, calling out the party’s persistent accusations of election rigging. In a statement, Dr. Amoako expressed concern over the NDC’s repeated claims that the Electoral Commission (EC) is attempting to manipulate election results. She pointed out that despite these allegations, the NDC had secured a significant margin of victory in several areas, questioning where the supposed rigging had taken place. “We made efforts to ensure peaceful elections. Yet, every day, the NDC accuses the EC of rigging. They will continue to say this, but they managed to win with a significant margin, so where is the rigging?” Dr. Amoako said. She further expressed sympathy for Jean Mensa, who has been the focal point of these attacks. “The focus on Jean Mensa is so intense that at times, I feel for her. What is her crime? Her only crime is being the EC. She is simply trying to do the right thing,” Dr. Amoako added. Dr. Amoako also defended the re-coalition of seven disputed constituencies, which had been the subject of contention following a High Court ruling. She argued that the re-coalition process was necessary, claiming that some polling agents had been pressured to declare results in favor of the NDC. The seven constituencies—Ahafo Ano North, Techiman South, Ahafo Ano South West, Nsawam Adoagyiri, Obuasi East, Okaikwei Central, and Tema Central—were all declared for the NPP after the re-collation. Following this process, the NDC’s General Secretary, Fifi Fiavi Kwetey, condemned the re-collation, describing it as unlawful and manipulated, and announced that the NDC rejected the results. Dr. Amoako’s comments reflect a deepening divide between the NPP and NDC over the credibility of the Electoral Commission’s actions, especially concerning the re-collation of results and the allegations surrounding it.Bizarre video of Rudy Guiliani dressed as Santa Claus with a woman on his lap in desperate bid to sell coffeeATLANTA — The Lakers’ four-game road trip, which ended with a disheartening overtime loss to the Atlanta Hawks on Friday , lasted eight days if you count the days they flew out of and back to Los Angeles on the front and back ends of the trip. But considering they were in Southern California for just a few days after their Nov. 26 road loss to the Phoenix Suns and Nov. 27 road win over the San Antonio Spurs – flying back to L.A. Thanksgiving ahead of their Nov. 29 home loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder before flying to Salt Lake City the afternoon of Nov. 30 – the trip felt longer. “It was a two-week road trip, let’s be honest,” coach JJ Redick said Friday night. “It was a two-week road trip.” And the nature of how the last two weeks have gone for the Lakers added to their road weariness. The loss to the Hawks was their third straight defeat, including their losses to the Minnesota Timberwolves and Miami Heat by a combined 70 points, and their seventh loss in nine games going back to the Nov. 21 home loss to the Orlando Magic , the start of another three-game losing streak. While Friday’s loss continued their losing streak, they played with significantly more energy and effort compared to their losses earlier in the week. “Based off the last couple games that we played, Minnesota and Miami, it’s a good bounce back for us,” Anthony Davis said. “Just some of the defensive communication we messed up a little bit [on Friday night]. As far as the carryover, it was better.” When asked what it’ll take for the Lakers, who won their first three games of the season and were 10-4 before their recent skid, to get back over the hump, LeBron James pointed to the players the team has been without. Austin Reaves missed the entire road trip because of a bruised left pelvis suffered Nov. 29 against the Thunder. “With Austin, the movement piece and the thrust, his ability to get in the paint, his ability to, for the most part, make quick decisions,” Redick said. “In some ways, he’s like a connector for our offense, but he’s also a scorer and a playmaker. So you can have connectors that aren’t necessarily players that can do what Austin does in terms of creating offense. He does both. And also, he’s highly competitive and he brings that juice every night.” Backup center Jaxson Hayes has been sidelined 12 of the last 13 games because of right ankle injuries, and isn’t expected to be reevaluated until this upcoming week. Christian Wood (offseason left knee surgery) and Jarred Vanderbilt (offseason feet surgery recovery) have yet to play this season. The Lakers announced that Vanderbilt is expected to return in early January . Wood’s status isn’t as clear. “I don’t know as far as what will get us over the hump,” James said. “We just gotta just not drown. Don’t drown and we’ll be all right.” Or as Davis put it: “There’s no cavalry. No one [feels] sorry for us. We can’t feel sorry for ourselves. Just gotta continue to put our head down and grind and work.” The Lakers will host the Portland Trail Blazers on Sunday at Crytpo.com Arena. Related Articles After that, they’ll get a rare four-day break off of games before playing the Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday in Minneapolis. “That break, if you call it a break, for three, four days, we have to use that for our minds, for our bodies, for clean up,” Redick said. “It’ll be a good opportunity for us.” When : 6:30 p.m. Sunday Where : Crypto.com Arena TV/radio : Spectrum SportsNet/710 AMagent slotvip 。

Coote was sacked earlier this month after the emergence of a video in which he made derogatory remarks about Liverpool and their former manager Jurgen Klopp. Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL) said that a thorough investigation had concluded he was “in serious breach of the provisions of his employment contract, with his position deemed untenable”. “Supporting David Coote continues to be important to us and we remain committed to his welfare,” PGMOL’s statement on December 9 added. The video which triggered PGMOL’s investigation into Coote’s conduct first came to public attention on November 11. In it, Coote is asked for his views on a Liverpool match where he has just been fourth official, and describes them as “s***”. He then describes Klopp as a “c***”, and, asked why he felt that way, Coote says the German had “a right pop at me when I reffed them against Burnley in lockdown” and had accused him of lying. “I have got no interest in speaking to someone who’s f****** arrogant, so I do my best not to speak to him,” Coote said. The Football Association opened its own investigation into that video, understood to be centred on that last comment and whether Coote’s reference to Klopp’s nationality constituted an aggravated breach of its misconduct rules. The investigation by PGMOL which led to Coote’s contract being terminated is also understood to have looked at another video which appeared to show Coote snorting a white powder, purportedly during Euro 2024 where he was one of the assistant VARs for the tournament. European football’s governing body UEFA also appointed an ethics investigator to look into the matter.

Elon Musk’s preschool is the next step in his anti-woke education dreamsHowling winds could not stop Notre Dame Cathedral’s heart from beating again. With three resounding knocks on its doors by Paris Archbishop Laurent Ulrich, wielding a specially designed crosier carved from fire-scorched beams, the monument roared back to life on Saturday evening. For the first time since a devastating blaze nearly destroyed it in 2019, the towering Gothic masterpiece reopened for worship, its rebirth marked by song, prayer, and awe beneath its soaring arches. The ceremony, initially planned to begin on the forecourt, was moved entirely inside due to unusually fierce December winds sweeping across the Ile de la Cite, flanked by the River Seine. The restoration, a spectacular achievement in just five years for a structure that took nearly two centuries to build, is seen as a moment of triumph for French President Emmanuel Macron, who championed the ambitious timeline – and a welcome respite from his domestic political woes. The evening’s celebration, attended by 1,500 dignitaries, including President-elect Donald Trump, Britain’s Prince William, and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, underscored Notre Dame’s enduring role as both a spiritual and cultural beacon. Observers see the event as Mr Macron’s, and his intention to pivot it into a fully fledged, diplomatic gathering, while highlighting France’s ability to unite on the global stage despite internal political crises. Overhead, 2,000 oak beams, nicknamed “the forest”, were used to rebuild the spire and roof, restoring the cathedral’s iconic silhouette. The thunderous great organ, with 7,952 pipes ranging from pen-sized to torso-wide, resounded for the first time since the fire. Its newly renovated console, boasting five keyboards, 115 stops, and 30 foot pedals, was a marvel of restoration, reawakening a cornerstone of Notre Dame’s identity. Guests entered through Notre Dame’s iconic western facade, whose arched portals adorned with biblical carvings were once a visual guide for medieval believers. Inside, the hum of hundreds of guests awaiting the service filled the cathedral with human sounds once more – a stark contrast to the construction din that echoed there for years. The celebration is expected to give a much-needed boost to embattled Mr Macron, whose prime minister was ousted this week, plunging the nation’s politics into more turmoil. Security will be high through the weekend, echoing measures taken during the Paris Olympics earlier this year. The Ile de la Cite – the small island in the River Seine that is home to Notre Dame and the historic heart of Paris – is closed to tourists and non-residents. Public viewing areas along the Seine’s southern bank will accommodate 40,000 spectators, who can follow the celebrations on large screens. For many, Notre Dame’s rebirth is not just a French achievement but a global one – after the reopening, the cathedral is set to welcome 15 million visitors annually, up from 12 million before the fire.Aman Center concludes awareness campaign

The City’s relationship with the Government of Alberta dominated headlines in 2024. Edmonton’s mayor spent the summer of 2024 repeatedly and publicly calling on Alberta’s government to pay their share of municipal property taxes. “I am confident that come April when we set the mill rate, the province will step up to pay their share of property taxes, that we will be able to further reduce the tax levy from 6.1 to to 5.3 per cent, and we can even go further down if the province pays us the retroactive resources, taxes, money that they owe going back to 2019,“ Sohi explained. On what’s changed between then and now, Mayor Sohi said he believes the Premier and Ministers have seen the light when it comes to funding inequities between Alberta’s two biggest cities. “They put a lot of money into maintaining Deerfoot Trail in Calgary. Here we have to do that with property tax dollars, so there are a lot of inequities. What gives me hope, is that the province is open to having conversations, and they recognize that those are legitimate concerns that I am identifying on behalf of Edmontonians, that they have to be resolved.” Despite Edmonton’s mayor pointing to his advocacy success for more provincial funding for things like shelter space in the city, and economic development, the relationship between city hall and Alberta’s Legislature was strained at times. In the fall, Alberta’s government enacted a new bill that created sweeping changes to municipal elections, including the creation of political parties in city politics and increases in candidate donations. While the mayor says he’s still deciding with his family on whether or not he’ll run again in 2025, he admits, that Bill-20 has given him pause. “I believe that the introduction of political parties and the advantage the province gives to political parties both financially and organizationally puts independent candidates at a disadvantage, so that’s something I’d have to weigh as part of my decision.” Throughout the week CityNews will have more with Mayor Sohi. CityNews Connect will sit down with both the mayor and outgoing Edmonton Police Chief Dale McFee on December 29th.

Facts vs. Feelings: Five players to trust in your Week 17 lineupsRevelers at a Christmas fair in Mexico were left horrified as they witnessed a fair ride collapse and injured two riders. Video from the festival, which was held at Acapulco Golf Club Monda, showed the ride — which was shaped like the Eiffel Tower and featured cable cars — tilting before it ultimately crashed to the ground . In a video obtained by The Daily Mail , one of the cars can be seen snapping off the line as the structure fell. The resulting crash injured Aldo Maldonado, a 35-year-old who was in town visiting from Mexico City, and Iván Gómez, also 35 and a resident of Acapulco, who were promptly treated at the scene by emergency services. According to officials, both men sustained non-life-threatening injuries but were rushed to Acqua Acapulco Hospital. Both are reportedly in stable condition . The outlet stated that shortly after the crash, Guerrero State Integral Risk Management Department and Civil Protection dispatched investigators to the scene to discover the cause of the accident. Heart-stopping moment falling drones injure boy during Orlando Christmas light show City to launch trial sending drones to 911 calls ahead of first responders It was reported that the investigators discovered that the tower was not anchored properly to the ground and that it was set up without a support mechanism. Investigators also reportedly found that the tower and other machine rides were not operating in accordance with guidelines that were instituted by the government. The outlet reported that despite the knowledge of lax safety measures, ride operators continued to run the machines normally. Many social media users who had seen the video, stated that they were not surprised that the structure had fallen over. "Strange? No. They never inspect those games and even less give them permission after a bribe," one person commented on the video. "Stop using mechanical rides," a second person added. "I think that governments and municipalities should certify (just as they close down a business) and put a seal on each ride (name and signature). There is no seal. It is not safe. And if it fails, we know who to complain to," they added. The incident comes after another holiday-related activity resulted in a seven-year-old being injured by a drone during a holiday light show. Alexander Edgerton, just seven years old, was rushed to the hospital for emergency heart surgery after getting hit with a falling drone at Saturday's Lake Eola Park show in Orlando. During the 6:30 pm show, "several small drones collided and fell into a crowd," according to a release by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), which is investigating the incident. Adriana Edgerton, the boy's mom, said her family was watching the show before Alexander was hit in the chest and the lip. "Everyone’s natural instinct was to duck and scatter, and right when we knew it, my daughter found my son on the floor unconscious, blood coming out of his face," Edgerton told WESH 2 . "I feel so bad, it's three days before Christmas," she added as her son continues to recover in the hospital. Alexander was the only person injured at the show, the Orlando Fire Department said.
