Senate 2023: No Better Candidate Than Muhammad Sani Dattijo BY COMRADE MUSA MOHAMMED As the 2023 general elections get closer, the time for the people of Kaduna Central to put on their thinking cap has come. This is no time to pander to political party supremacy without questioning. Political parties, as has been emphasized over time are simply vehicles for promoting the vision and aspirations of the individuals, particularly in the Nigerian context without a clear-cut ideological foundation for the political parties. What the people need at this point in our political journey are men and women with the capacity and character to deliver on their mandates. From our experiences so far, there is no gain in saying the fact that the calibre of people elected as leaders determines the quality of democratic dividends that would be delivered to the citizens.    It is out duty to elect someone like MUHAMMAD SANI DATTIJO  who I believe would deliver the devidens of  democracy to make the lives o

MAINA DIDN'T JUMP BAIL AS ALLEGED; Eye witness reveal encounter

Being an investigative Journalist with a combined 27 years of experience, I always had the urge  to fully understand if those bandits around the Kaduna, zamfara, katsina and Sokoto axis were actually Nigerians or imported Mercenary bandits from Niger Republic or Chad. My quest  took me to sokoto, Kebbi and entered Niger Republic, through a town called Kamba where I  spent a night, so as to ask about the terrain. Armed with my Passport, and with the help of vehicles that travel daily in between Nigeria and  Niger, we traveled almost the whole day to get to Niamey which was my first destination. It was after I had secured a place to sleep, then I decided to visit any nearby clinic or hospital a quest that took me to the Military Hospital to see a Doctor due to the symptoms of Malaria that  had been over the last few days, been making me weak with pain in different joints of my body.  It was at the reception of the Military Hospital that I saw the famous Dr Abdulrasheed Maina with some ai

NBAIS Remains Indispensable; Here Is Why

Image
The National Board For Arabic and Islamic Studies (NBAIS), Recognized in the year 2011bu the National Council on Education and assigned a supervisory role over Research and Development (NERDC) in 2013 has come under intense criticisms and different shades of accusations, from the feeble to the unfounded, overtime by various commentators in the country. However, thoughtful observation prudence point strongly to the complicity of it's rival body in the whole treacherous saga and/or machinations. Put starkly, the National Examination Council (NECO) seems to be the biggest, if ever there another force throwing it's weight behind these evil attempts to condemn the innocent board to the dustbin of history. If anybody were in doubt, NECO has cleared such with an open letter addressed to the Honorable Minister of Education and dated 13th September, 2022 where in it came up with some frivolous arguments. The letter NECO stated, was sequel to an invitation to present comments on a bill c

2023: WHY SEN. UBA SANI REMAINS MOST CREDIBLE CANDIDATE.

Image
BY COMRADE MUSA MOHAMMED No other governatorial candidate can match the capacity of the party’s standard bearer, Uba Sani, in the February 25, 2023 election. He is the best among the governatorial candidates. Senator Uba is a man that is unparalleled.  All candidates of APC are sellable. There is no governatorial candidate in Kaduna that can match the capacity of Uba Sani, a visionary leader who nurtures good talents and positions them. The insults hurled at Uba Sani by People’s Democratic Party and other party candidates, won’t derail the party from ensuring a wide margin victory for our candidate. Uba Sani ranks above Isa Ashiru Kudan, Sule Hunkuyi and others in contributions to kaduna and Nigeria’s democratic growth. The insults by PDP and other Political parties in Kaduna state is  “noisemaking” APC won’t allow to neither derail nor distract its focus. I appealed to the people of Kaduna to vote for Senator Uba Sani who has rich credentials, rather than playing into the hands of “ne

5 TYPES OF LIARS AND HOW TO RECOGNIZE AND DEAL WITH EACH

Image
Did you know that there are different types of liars? In order to confront each of them effectively, it’s important to recognize which type you are dealing with. Lying is a terribly destructive thing. Not only does it cause pain and hurt for the one being lied to but the one doing the lying too. We all know lying exists and is something that most people try to fight against doing. However, you may not have realized that there are actually various different types of liars. In the following article, we will highlight the 5 main types of liars and how you can deal with them. We often tend to see white lies as not being real lies. People who tell white lies often feel as if these kinds of lies are beneficial or at least harmless. White liars often tell only some of the truth. So it could be that people mistakenly believe they aren’t lying at all. Sometimes, a person may use white lies when trying to shield someone from the truth if they feel that it may be damaging or hurtful. If you bel

Nasir El-Rufai on  scrapping of the NNPC following its abysmal performance over the years.

Gov. Nasiru Elrufai Succeeded In Changing The Face of Education In Kaduna State.

BY COMRADE MUSA MOHAMMED musamohdeen@gmail.com, moonlightnews15@gmail.com +2348038895334 In a federation like Nigeria, development and growth of the country does not only depends on the leadership of the president who is at the center. State governors are also key in ensuring growth and development. In my view, leadership at the state level is even more important than that of the central government because Nigeria is a heterogeneous nation with different tribes and culture. Over the years, all the states in Nigeria have been ruled by different people. Since Nigeria got her independence in 1960 and started practicing federalism, the achievements and accomplishments of some of our governors has been documented in different journals, books and even magazines. Governor Malam Nasiru Ahmed Elrufai Executive Governor of Kaduna State is an example of an accountable and responsible governor. Nasiru Elrufai is one of the governors that contributed greatly to the development of education in Kadun
