After they collect what they can, they give the
man of the house, a gun with instructions to
shoot his wife, or else he should be shot himself.
The man gets the gun, points it at his wife, and
hesitates. He is thinking of what he has gone through in life with his wife and how she has suffered and sacrificed for him.

This picture will break you after melting you; this is the governor of Nasarawa State Engr Abdullahi A Sule consoling a boy who had just lost his father. The boy wrecked by grief sat helplessly by the remains of his father who has become a heap of sand- the boy, will forever not see his darling father again. It was the helplessness of the boy in his grief-stricken state that caught the attention of the governor who had come to bury his own son and walked to the boy.

PETER OBI, THE NORTH AWAITS YOUR AUGUST VISIT

I could remember that Peter Obi came to power on the 17th March 2006 while the famous Onitsha crisis, which led to the killings of Northerners, occurred on the 21st and 22nd of February 2006. That was almost a month gap.

@PeterObi Our first meeting with Obi also coincided with his first visit to the town; all arrangements were done to receive the first citizen of the state and also to explain our predicament to him at that moment. As refugees in Army Barrack Onitsha, we took him from the

FESTUS KEYAMO DROPS THE MOTHER OF ALL BOMBS

Who are you calling dictator ?

Ex- President Obasanjo removed Senate Presidents at will, removed any opposing voice, removed Fayose for a small insult, and removed Ladoja with thugs in Ibadan. Who are you calling “DICTATOR”? BUHARI. Ex-President OBJ withheld Lagos State fund for 3 years, not minding how Lagosians would eat, Yaradua got there and released the fund.

NASS members were abusing President Buhari openly, messing up everything at will; Gov. Fayose has been abusing President Buhari for 4 years now.

POST DERBY ERA IMPLICATIONS FOR FRANCE, CHAD, NIGERIA AND WEST AFRICA:

Constitutionally the Speaker of Parliament is supposed to take over if the President is indisposed. Chad is an important ally of France and has been heralded in the West as an indisposable partner in the fight against terror. Let's leave aside the succession battle for a while ...

The death of Derby can lead to two outcomes. If this was a Maskirovska (military masking or deception to confuse intelligence) then Nigeria is in for a tough time.

NOTE FOR (IN)HUMAN RIGHT GROUPS IN NIGERIA🇳🇬

I bring you good tidings (may be bad for you) @HURIWA_NIGERIA. I want to inform you that for the past eight years, the people of RAFI LOCAL GOVT, KAGARA, NIGER STATE have been batting with incessant attacks by bandits, cattle rustling kidnapping for ransom and unprovoked arson.
These cases were duly reported to appropriate authorities.

What interest the good people of the area is that none of the #HumanRightsWatch either spoke for or sympathize with us, in any form or at any occasion.

"Boko Haram terrorists have a hard time understanding the jig is up. After losing hundreds of fighters in recent weeks, some Boko Haram commanders figured it was a good idea to attack an army base. The attack underscored the illusion of Boko Haram commanders.

@HQNigerianArmy Boko Haram insurgents attacked the base in their classic style. Dozens of fighters attacked from four points simultaneously, firing mortars and RPGs, hoping to overwhelm the defenders and overrun the base.

This is to inform ABUJA travellers from Delta State that the Train service operates from Monday to Friday.

It leaves Udjevwu Station (for those travelling from Warri) at exactly 8am for Itakpe.
No African man time. Itakpe is before Lokoja.

@DSGovernment It leaves Itakpe back to Udjevwu at 2pm.
The train stops at different stations to drop off and pick passengers. They have stations at Agbarho, Abraka, Agbor, Agenebode, etc.

The cost from Udjevwu (Warri axis) is N2,200 to Itakpe.

My dear amiable @GovNiger @abusbello I was flipping thru #FotMob football application a while ago and saw Naija league being played without our darling #NigerTornadoes. After making enquiries I was told it went down into relegation 2yrs ago. I was also told that nepotism now takes the center stage in selecting players for the Club.
This ordinarily means there is no year in sight for the Club to get back to play in the elite league. Also I heard that players were sold without making relevant replacements.
Oga sir, please do something.
