A Nigerian court has disqualified a leading opposition presidential candidate about two months before the national election, adding new complications to the electoral process. France 24's evening bulletin reported the ruling on 5 November 2026. The same broadcast also reported that tens of thousands of people have fled across the border into Kenya as deadly ethnic clashes intensify in southern Ethiopia. It additionally featured members of the first Refugee Youth Olympic Team preparing for Dakar 2026. The report gave no further details on the court's reasoning or any appeal.
