1. This story is a deadly blow to those who want us to believe that @MBuhari doesn’t show concern about the plight of Nigerians because he doesn’t know what is going on. That it’s the fault of those around him because they don’t tell him the truth. dailytrust.com.ng/why-i-must-sec…
2. The man knows everything including who voted for him. So, never again should you tell us that he isn’t aware of the situation in #Zamfara, Birnin Gwari or Katsina of recent. Don’t tell us he didn’t know what happened during the conclusive “inconclusive” elections in Kano.
3. Don’t tell us he is oblivious of what is happening to Kano Emirate today. HE KNOWS WHAT IS HAPPENING. It’s just that he doesn’t care. He just chose to turn a blind eye because it conveniences him to do so. But Allah would judge and history is recording.

A fellow Nigerian sat beside me for four minutes on a London bus (he dropped after 3 stops) moments ago. What I heard made me extremely anxious about our country. Once he realised that I’m Nigerian, he unleashed a dumb conspiracy theory on the result of the presidential election.
He said “the number one hacker in the world who’s Russian” had hacked into INEC’s systems and revealed the “true” results of the presidential election - “Obi got 55m votes, Tinubu is a distant 2nd and Atiku withdrew his court case” immediately after he saw the hacked results.
I didn’t know what to say. This is a man who’s obviously lived in the UK for a while. I’d have thought that he’s more educated, or at least more exposed, than the average Nigerian. That he’d believe this trash to the extent of spewing it on a bus full of strangers is gobsmacking.

Shaykh Goni Aisami was the most popular Muslim cleric in Gashu’a, my hometown. He’s killed on Friday by a soldier who claimed to be on duty & begged for a lift from Nguru to Jajimaji town. On their way, the soldier stopped & shot him 3 times and dumped his body to steal his car.
But Shaykh Aisami‘s car failed to re-start. The solider summoned his friend who’s also a soldier. Both spent the whole night trying to start the car. In the morning, villagers saw the body and reported to the police who arrested both suspects still struggling to start the car.
Lcpl John Gabriel & Lcpl Adamu Gideon of 241 Recce Battalion Nguru have confessed to their crimes, said the Yobe State Police Command. Justice must be served swiftly. It’s the Shaykh’s humility & telling truth to power that endeared him to people. May Allah admit him to Jannah.

If you’re in doubt that the Buhari govt is clueless, listen up. Garba Shehu told BBC Hausa today that they gave the Abuja-Kaduna train attackers all their demands, but they refused to free their victims. That’s because the terrorists outsmarted them. Here’s what Garba Shehu said.
First, the gang leader demanded the release of his pregnant wife who’s in jail. The govt took her to a hospital, where she birthed twins at taxpayers’ expense and all 3 were freed. He refused to free his victims, but demanded the release of 6 or 7 members’ children from prison.
Not only did the govt release them from jail, it sent a plane to fly them from Adamawa, where they’re detained, and delivered them to the terrorists. Again, they refused to release the victims. Instead, they asked for money! This is the worse negotiation I’ve heard of in my life.

Another Jonathan-era arms scandal is unfolding under Buhari. The NSA told BBC Hausa that Billions disbursed for the purchase of weapons and equipment DISAPPEARED under the sacked Service Chiefs, now ambassadors. He said he hopes Buhari will probe it. #Abayomigate or #Burataigate?
Here’s what he said as translated by Daily Trust,
“It isn’t that we are not working to end the security challenge in the country. The president has done his own part and allocated huge amount of money to purchase weapons but they are yet to be here. We don’t know where they are.”
“I am not saying that the past Service Chiefs have diverted the money, but presently we don’t know where the money is... I can’t say the money was stolen but we didn’t see anything and even the new Service Chiefs said they didn’t see the weapons.”

In 2018, a lady trafficked from Kano to Oman reached out to me seeking help. The agent offered them a job in Saudi Arabia. Given every Muslim’s eagerness to visit the Holy Land, she didn’t hesitate to accept saying, “If nothing, I’d be honoured with a visit to the Prophet (SAW)”.
On getting to Lagos, the agent collected her and other victims’ passports and never returned them until they got to departure. He didn’t show them the tickets either. They first landed somewhere she thinks was Cairo and then flew to another country that they’re told was Saudi.
It took them days to discover that it wasn’t Saudi, by which time they had each been handed over to their “master”. Hers was a nasty man with a cruel wife and son. She would work like a donkey in the daytime while being beaten by the woman. At night, the father and son raped her.

In this article, @BokoWatch examined Gov. Zulum’s recommendations in the wake of the #ZabarmariMassacre. The author worried that Zulum is drifting from his “soft” war on BH to a “hard” one. With respect, I think Jacob misconstrued Zulum’s position on this.
strongcitiesnetwork.org/en/guest-artic…
Gov. Zulum has always advocated for the use of force on BH and I think he’s right. A vicious terrorists group that targets civilians deserves all the military might in the world. Violence must be used to prevent the group’s fighters from killings & destruction and decimate them.
The Zulum economic and education approach Jacob highlighted are first intended to ameliorate the hardship BH has plunged civilians into, but may also address some of the factors pushing people to BH. I think it should continue but it shouldn’t be a trade off for force against BH.
