Commiserating with Gov. Zulum, Borno People over Zabarmari Tragedy.

It is with utmost sorrow and distress that I commiserate with you on the dastardly and inhuman killing of dozens of farmers in Zabarmari, Jere Local Govt Area of Borno State, on Saturday 28th Nov 2020
2. The cold-blooded murder of these innocent citizens, toiling to eke out a living for themselves and their families and provide food security for our nation is not only callous but satanic.
3. I recall your strident sacrifices to ensure that millions of displaced Borno residents are resettled in their ancestral homes and return to their various occupations. These efforts have not only helped in increasing agricultural output but have also given joy to the displaced
4. Your Excellency, this unfortunate incident despite your spirited efforts in complementing the efforts of the Federal security forces is a sad reminder that the war against these desperate and blood-thirsty insurgents will require more efforts to win.
5. My hope and prayer is that Allah will give you the courage to continue to provide succour to your people even in the face of this rather depressing event.
6. My condolences go to the families of the deceased and the entire Borno citizenry. My prayer is that Allah will give comfort them and bring quick recovery to the injured. May he also grant the deceased eternal rest.
7. Once again, please accept my heartfelt condolences.

THE #ENDSARS PROTESTS; A FUNDAMENTAL LESSON IN DEMOCRATIC GOVERNANCE

I heavily grieve for those who have lost their lives or been injured during the period of these protests.
2. My deepest sympathies go to their families and loved ones for none should have been made to pay such a dear price. My career as an active politician spans nearly three decades.
3. In that time, I have seen many things as Nigeria has struggled, sometimes against itself, to undertake the often painful yet inexorable push toward democratic government accountable to, and protective of, the people.

ALHAJI WADA MAIDA: STATESMAN, JOURNALISM ICON

I was deeply hurt to learn of the passing on Monday of veteran journalist and Chairman Peoples Daily, Alhaji Wada Maida, 70.
His death is a loss to Nigeria and to those who believe in the unity of the country. A statesman and patriot, Alhaji Maida was a journalism icon and accomplished media manager.
He was an outstanding figure worthy of emulation by those who aspired to be journalists or otherwise work within the media space.
