AS AKETI KISSES 65!

Image
  By Richard Olatunde  A research is said to have revealed that only a marginal eight percent of global population exceeds age 65 above. As scary as this statistics may read in Nigeria where index for long life shrinks by the day, our dear Governor, Arakunrin Oluwarotimi Akeredolu,SAN, seems to have just started his life all over again by his acts and deed and his general disposition to service to humanity.  This realization is more profound when he rose and became governor of our sunshine state after his first attempt in 2012 returned him to the drawing board where he restrategised and added more flesh to his body of political knowledge with a view to sustaining his position today. And we are all happy that from 2017 to 2020, the period he served his first term, he successfully weathered the storm, in spite of banana peel which the administration he inherited from his predecessor symbolized.  Governor Akeredolu, on February 24, 2017, was welcomed into the Government...

Jibrin Ibrahim, Deepening Democracy, Daily Trust, 23rd July 2021 Yesterday, I saw a video clip of the Emir of Muri giving Fulani bandits a 30-day ultimatum to stop killing his people, banditry and kidnapping in his Emirate. If they do not stop, he threatened, he will order his people to start killing all Fulani on sight. This is another sign that the security forces are outside the equation. An audio clip has been circulating of a bandit leader called Turji who openly proclaimed that he is indeed a bandit who has killed soldiers on three occasions and his location is known to the security agencies. Rather than come to arrest him for his crimes, the police arrested a soft target, his father, because they are afraid of him. He then threatened the security agencies that he will continue to kidnap more people until his father is released. He kidnapped about 150 people in Shinkafi Local Government area, his father was released and he released the captives (See reports by Abdulaziz Abdulaziz...
