Boko Haram A must from the North   By Abdullahi Sa'idu. Northern part of Nigeria have been living in an peaceful atmosphere even before the scramble of Europeans down to Africa for colonisation, the people from the region are well known in their quest for knowledge (Islamic knowledge).  The passion they have in seeking knowledge of their religion (Islam) which is the major practice religion in the zone, quest and passion these makes them move from a far distance location to another in seeking how to worship creator and also to memorise the Holy Qur'an.  These quest passion they have were triggered by a verse in the holy Qur'an that say ' know me (God) before you worship me' and how the Quran and hadith emphasised on the importance of education.  One will easily get confused when people if such religion that takes education as very paramount to fall victims of rejecting and condemning a particular knowledge,  forgetting that the prophet that brought about th...

If we fix the family, we fix society.

If we fix the family, we fix society. By Kamal Auwal Faggo I will begin with an adage that says ”charity begins at home” this basically shows that if parents can try so much in giving their children best moral conduct we can uplift a better society.  Family play a vital role by making their children to be good in the society why because bother good and bad character begins at home so why not teach your children to be good so that we lay a better society.  Family is the first agent of socialisation where parents teach their children a vary good conduct for them to be better humans in the society for other generation to follow. Why not be a good person in the society since this shows the credits of your parents for training you to be good and kind in the society because morality is the best teacher in life. Good and bad child all come from a home so why not try and change the narration so that we will live without any act of destruction and criminalities in our society.  Le...

Why kidnapped a human being like you? By Zainab Haruna The country is witnessing enormous challenges of kidnapping that need urgent control because if otherwise the situation at hand will not bring a good result to the country.  People are being kidnapped everyday like they are not human and no any measure to stop such menaces. How will Nigeria develop in this way? NO! Why because peace is very paramount in all we do in this life but reverse is the case in our country.

NIGERIA'S UNIMPLIMENTABLE 2022 BUDGET.  BY ABUBAKAR USMAN SHEHU Like what looks like a drama,  president mohammadu Buhari while signing into law the 2022 budget described the document as unimplimentable.  In the budget, the Buhari led federal government while while presenting it before the joint session of the National Assembly on October 7th 2021, prioritized spending on defense and security,  infrastructure and education with the sectors getting a combined 5.15trillion naira in the over 16 trillion naira 2022 budget.  From the proposal, defense and security got 2.41trillion naira, representing 15percent, infrastructure 1.45trillion naira,  representing 8.9percent, education 1.29 trillion naira,  representing 7.9percent, health got 820billion naira,  representing 5percent, while social development and poverty eradication got 863billion representing 5.3percent of the entire budget as contained in the breakdown recently by Nigeria's minister of fin...

COMRADE ABDULWAHAB DIYAR: REDEEMER TO THE LOST GLORIES OF APC YOUTHS IN NORTH-EAST.

COMRADE ABDULWAHAB DIYAR: REDEEMER TO THE LOST GLORIES OF APC YOUTHS IN NORTH-EAST. By Amb. Saifullahi Yusha'u The only way to correct the mistakes of past leaders and impact too on many in a democratic settings is to engage into politics or choose good candidates that would do so; one would be part and parcel of the rewards of their good works. After the return of Nigeria into democratic system of government, several political parties were established and after that the main work of such parties after the establishment are often left in the hands of party officials; they are like engineers that repair every engine (politicians) and make it work effectively (projects that helps humanity). Comrade Abdulwahab Diyar is a person of integrity who has been in politics for long, he is young and educational, energetic and experienced above all he is hardworking who never put laxity in task given to him.   Youth leader for any political party is saddled with the responsibilities of orientin...

DR. ALIYU IBRAHIM YAKUB: SKILLED POLITICIAN FIT TO TAKE APC YOUTHS TO PROMISE LAND By Amb. Saifullahi Yusha'u In any democratic dispensation, political party leaders are important actors that bring well-deserving candidates to limelight, they serve as the bridge which link both side (electorates and the candidates) and indeed display the manifestos  of such personality thereby making him or her popular which at last  result to victory. The party leaders before and after elections always work like a mother who could not sleep in solace until its baby sleeps, meaning that they rest not till people they publicly advertised execute projects that touch lives in many positive ways.  Youths are the most important group in every society, they are the strength that geared speedy developments to their different domains but yet youths are not getting the things they deserved because leaders that represented in were habitually lazy that lacked foresights. Dr. Aliyu Ibrahim Yakub is h...

BUHARI: END THE DICHOTOMY BETWEEN BACHELOR OF SCIENCE AND HIGHER NATIONAL DIPLOMA HOLDERS NOW.                                                                                              By Dangana Henry Joseph and Muhammad Umar Shehu.   The adage that says,you can rub Peter to pay Paul is actually going on in Nigeria now,with the disparity between graduates of higher national diploma and bachelor of science. Going by this trend of events in the country that has placed Bcs holders above HND holders in terms of employment  opportunities and promotion, in which  higher national diploma holders cannot go beyond grade level 13, while  BSC holers can raise up to grade level 17 before retirement from active service.

MORAL DECADENCE:  ZESTFUL CAUSE OF RELINQUISHING GOOD SOCIETAL NORMS

MORAL DECADENCE:  ZESTFUL CAUSE OF RELINQUISHING GOOD SOCIETAL NORMS By Ahmad Aliyu Ahmad Activities and ceremonies in the past during marriages were carried out with decorum and not much spending; after the marriages couples lived harmoniously with scarce recourses and with utmost level of morals when children start popping in. People in those years relied on farming to feed their families and level of parental attachment to their task was high but nowadays people are jumping in to marriages without thinking responsibilities in them. The period of courtship built on lies leads to marriage but with imponderable marital problems, it is said that beauty leads many to their husband’s houses but their querulous attitudes drag them back to their parent’s houses. The problems are not only peculiar to wives, in times without number turpitudinal fathers shun vital family needs but marry more wives to that erratic family. Most children that grew in such homes are usually recalcitrants and l...

HOUSE-HELP: DISGUISED MODERN SLAVERY RUINING THE LIVES OF TEENAGERS

HOUSE-HELP: DISGUISED MODERN SLAVERY RUINING THE LIVES OF TEENAGERS By: Mukhtar Garba Kobi (08185113672) Children are precious gift that comfort the hearts of parents, they deserved to enjoy each stage of their lives from infanthood, childhood up to adulthood. Hence, some people are blessed with children while others are desperately paying daily to have even one but God did not grant them, it is not because they are sinful but their time is yet to come. Some parents are naturally unconcern about their children while others have the heart to uplift them their lives but do not have the means. The outweighing incidences of rapes and assaults to young girls and boys living in rich-men’s houses in the name of payable works are unarguably increasing; thereby teenagers’ constitutional freedoms, dignities and privileges are denied, abused as well as violated. Parents in Nigeria are professionals in sheer verbal discussions about potentials and talents of their kids not harnessing them whereas ...

Why the insecurity?

Why the insecurity? By Ibrahim Kabiru This issue of insecurity is getting out of hand in this country every now and then lives are being lost but no any measure or set about by the authorities in charge to tackle such menace.  People are being kidnapped almost everyday and no action in place, can we continue like that? Capital NO because we’re human and we have a right to live in this country but is like the right is no where to be found in this country.  Contrary to what happened recently concerning Haneefa a girl that being kidnapped by her school proprietor and demand some ransom from her parents one may say this situation at hand if otherwise it will be worst than it was before in this country.  Haneefah is a 5 year old girl so what did she do to deserve such a terrible act? Nothing but because of the vested interest we inclined in us that’s what lead us to doing such terrible act but haneefa don’t deserve to be victim of this menace.  This issue of  tacklin...

  Trust For COVID-19 vaccines to succeed. By Sulaiman Yaqub Abubakar  Vaccination efforts against COVID-19 are finally underway. In a global effort that is only as strong as its weakest link, support are going to be urgently required to attain what United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund has delineated as “one of the most important mass undertakings in human history.” however as we tend to grapple with the provision obstacles of vaccine delivery for low-income countries, the challenges transcend the requirement for cold chain storage, airfreight distribution, and also the provision of needles and vials. One of the most important hurdles in reaching the world’s most vulnerable individuals are going to be convincing them that vaccines, and also the individuals providing them, is trustworthy. Winning this trust  Even before the eruption of COVID-19, vaccination refusal threatened to reverse progress in tackling vaccine-preventable diseases Health Organization ...

Killings of minors: taming the upsurge

Image
Killings of minors: taming the upsurge By Usman Abdullahi Koli Children are one of the best gifts given to couples by Almighty God. They bring happiness to their parents. Every parent wants to see his/her children and be joyful. A child is a huge investment that every mummy and dad prioritizes and will not do anything to harm him.    Ostensibly, parents experience what could be described as an oxymoron –pain of joy while raising the kids. This pain begins at the conception stage –spanning through the 3 trimesters and to the labour room. The labour room experience does not last forever but the pain may do. It is sad that many of these kids are now soft-targets for ritualists and kidnappers. Our children are threatened, killed, maltreated, molested, raped, harrassed, tortured and currently facing other forms of violence.  The killers would never be happy and might do anything if their own children face similar things they do to other people’s children. Apart from children b...

Insecurity and President Buhari fake promises.

Insecurity and President Buhari fake promises.  By Musa Yakubu Abdullahi Ample of citizens are been killed in some parts of the country, no action is taking by the government but unfortunately the president is in Turkey celebrating his 79th birthday. Which kind of unjust is this? Insecurity is bedevilling Nigerians but our president is mute, no action in place to tackle such menace and our president is not even in the country that time but he is in Turkey cutting cake and celebrating birthday with his relatives, friends, and families while blood is over stain in his own country. Imagine there is insecureness in Turkey will the president be able to celebrate his birthday there? No! why because peace is very paramount in all we do in this life but the president left Nigeria in a time that Nigerians need some actions to tackle the phenomenon facing their daily routines. What baffles me the most is what the president said when the incident occurred, according to his media aids “Preside...

Dr. Habu Dahiru: industrious politician erecting legacies in Gombe Health sector. By Muhammad Umar Shehu  Contrary to what we have seen so far in the ministry of health, Gombe state. No doubt people like Dr. Habu Dahiru are naturally work one’s butt of, and people like him are hard to find in our society due to their work to humanity. I can recalled vividly in 1999 to 2003 he was the Commissioner of health Gombe state ministry of health, and he try so much in uplifting the ministry to a higher level by projecting the image of the organisation. And he creates a mutual coexistence between his workers.  People like Dr. Habu Dahiru are hard to find when it comes to rendering their services at the cost of their work by looking at How he tried so much in rising the standard of health sector in Gombe state as the commissioner of Health.  At the cost of his work he has done so much in providing some part of the state with Hospitals at the senatorial zones among which are Akko, Ka...

  Mohammed Ahmed kumo the sagacious  person in GOSEPA. By Comrade M.U Jungudo Contrary to the achievements I’ve seen so far in GOSEPA activities in Gombe state one may say people like Ahmed Kumo are really up to the task when assign. The best achievement in life is when the general public mafficks one’s attainments towards his task to the humanity and how he brings about development in the area of his work notwithstanding the fact that he’s doing really good in the aspect of his task as the General manager Gombe state environmental sanitation and protection agency (GOSEPA). Ahmed kuma is among young and indomitable people within the range of Akko Local Government precisely Kumo town and he brings a lot of change and make life better for tons of poor people around him. Am very cocksure to say that people like Ahmed kumo are very few in our society despite the fact that he has tons of industrious skills and indomitable habit towards helping the indigent people around him all the...

  KILLING AND KIDNAPING: ARE THE TWO MAJOR PROBLEM DISTURBING THE NORTHERN NIGERIA. By Anas Danladi Muhammad The current situation we are in northern Nigeria, there is nothing called security despite the fact that all our lives are like insects; that may be killed at anywhere and any moment without having any protection it's only few among us are enjoying the insurgent for there selfish interest. If the government truly want to eradicate the act of killings and kidnappings in northern Nigeria, so there is a need to give more access to the security sector and invest into it's security in terms of quality weapons towards fighting the bandits. Huge amount of money are set annually to tackle internal and external security threats but in protecting leaders instead of the general public.it is hardly to read news papers or surf online without coming across news about kidnapings and heartless massacres of innocent people. The act of killings and kidnappings in northern Nigeria spread l...

Is Nigeria safe anymore?

Is Nigeria safe anymore? By John Daniel Godwill I write this with tears in my eyes because of the happenings of insecureness that is bedevilling this country that was great before but unfortunately turn to something else by looking at the issues arising such as kidnapping, banditry, Boko Haram and so on. Nigeria is a country bless with ample of achievements and goals since it was a country where humanity is paramount peace and harmony everywhere but to my dismay turn to something else.  What baffles me the most is that despite the fact that insecurity is almost everywhere in this country but no any measure or set about by the authorities in charge to tackle such phenomena. Can we continue like that? People are being killed like animals bloodshed is everywhere and yet the government is mute about this incident and by the way we’re humans we have rights to live but reverse is the case in this country because we are being killed now and then in this country like insects.  This is...

Jamilu Sa'eed Musa_ A Superhuman!!! By Muhammad Umar Shehu  Am very cocksure to say that people like Jamilu Sa'eed Musa are very few in our society despite the fact that he was tons of industrious skills and indomitable habit towards helping the indigent people around him all the time. The best attainments in life is when the general public mafficks one’s achievements towards his skills and zeal when it comes to helping others to be role models and he is really up to the task. Am cocksure to say that he has a clean and adorable mind when it comes to rising people to achieve certain goal mind and to be better people.  Some people are naturally life-supporters in giving out to the public. especially, when it comes to helping others to be free from anything that can put them to miserable lifes. And with confidence I can say Jamilu Sa’eed Musa is really up to the task.  As this saying remind us “ Good one turn deserves another. “ and by looking at this little piece on May say...
