ANC members have blocked roads in Naledi, Soweto, apparently in a bid to prevent voters from partiipating in local by-elections
\t On Friday, internet and international calls were cut off across the West African nation in anticipation of the election results, according to locals and international observers in the capital, Conakry.
\t This was the third time that Conde matched-up against Diallo. Before the election, observers raised concerns that an electoral dispute could reignite ethnic tensions between Guinea's largest ethnic groups.
It has been a month since MARTA eliminated and reduced transit service throughout the Atlanta Metropolitan area, including Clayton, DeKalb, Fulton and the City of Atlanta.
On April 20, 2020, MARTA CEO Jeffrey Parker eliminated 70 routes and reduced services without any public hearing and without the approval of the MARTA board.
The actions of MARTA could have a negative impact in the poor communities where riders do not have a car to go to the post office or make it to the local precinct, or to go and participate in early voting because they do not have
a way to get to the polls.
I have read and heard from many citizens who have raised
questions about the actions of MARTA regarding the disparity and inequities in the services and which routes were eliminated.
In order to address these concerns, the MARTA board owes the citizens of
DeKalb, Fulton, and Clayton counties an explanation as to how the routes were selected and why, and a vote by the MARTA board to re-establish those routes that were eliminated.
The ANC in a statement has said that it would end its coalition with the PA, after both parties could not agree on how to handle matters of governance in municipal entities.

\"We want all the issues raised by the women leaders captured in the final report,\" said Mr Odinga even as the BBI debate continues to draw division with political leaders differing on the proposals.
\"We want to see the final BBI report, but there is still debate on whether to go with this IEBC to the referendum and do away with it afterwards or change it before the vote,\" he said.
Some proponents of the BBI drive also differed with the proposal by MP Jeremiah Kioni that the referendum be held alongside the 2022 election.
Mr Kioni is the chairman of the Parliamentary Constitutional Implementation Oversight Committee and has published the Referendum Bill, 2020.
\"If, for example, the proportional representation as per the proposed BBI report is to be implemented, or restructuring of the executive, or having ministers elected from Parliament, then we cannot go to a referendum and at the same time hold elections, unless someone is saying that the new changes will take effect in 2027 after the next elections,\" he said.
Burundi’s opposition leader Agathon Rwasa is claiming an early victory in the country’s first presidential election in five years.
But Rwasa told VOA’s Central African service that polling officers from his National Council for Liberty (CNL) party said he is winning.
“The trend is that CNL is leading in presidential, parliamentary and even in communal elections in general,” Rwasa said.
Rwasa told VOA that Wednesday was a “great day” for Burundi, but he accused the ruling party of “mischief” and holding the election in an atmosphere of fear and intimidation.
Although he is making an early claim of victory, Rwasa alleged the elections “were not free, they weren’t fair, and they weren’t that transparent.”
