The Managing Director of Medview Airlines, Alhaji Muneer Bankole, said some 271 Muslim pilgrims that took part in the 2014 Hajj in Saudi Arabia returned home aboard the airline on Friday.Bankole told newsmen in Ikeja that the pilgrims, from the South West zone of Nigeria, arrived the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos, aboard a Boeing 767 aircraft, belonging to the airline. According to him, the Muslim faithful are from Ogun and Oyo states. He said the pilgrims were the first batch to return to the country among others designated for transportation by the airline. Bankole said the remaining 5,303 pilgrims allocated to the airline would be transported within two weeks. “We are fully mobilised in terms of equipment and personnel to handle the return leg of the annual exercise. “We will ensure that the airline concludes the return leg in record time, even as measures have been put in place to ensure the exercise is hitch free,’’ he said. He, however, called on the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria to assist in getting aircraft for any stranded Nigerian pilgrim at the Holy land if need arises. http://www.punchng.com/news/271-muslim-pilgrims-arrive-in-lagos-airport/ |

Operation Zenda,the Benue State task force on security, comprising the military and the police, clashed with members of the Nigeria Union of Petroleum and Gas Workers in Makurdi, the state’s capital, causing confusion in the metropolis. It was learnt that trouble started when a tanker driver spit on a traffic officer who was directing the flow of traffic along the only road leading out of the state capital to the southern part of the country. An eyewitness, who identified himself as Ahir, told The PUNCH that a motorist with a smaller car blocked the road before the tanker driver arrived. The truck driver was said to have attempted to force his way through contrary to the direction of the traffic warden. Ahir said an argument ensued between the traffic officer and the tanker driver, who allegedly spit on traffic warden, a development that coincided with the arrival of men ofOperation Zenda. Operatives of the joint security task force were said to have descended on the truck driver and beat him to a pulp. NUPENG officials and other tanker drivers were said to have been alerted to the fate of their colleagues. The union officials were alleged to have blocked the highway with their trucks in reaction to the beating of their colleague. The state chairman of NUPENG, Joseph Hungur, told The PUNCH at the scene of the blockade that the state treasurer of the Union, Mr. Abdullahi Ibrahim, lost a tooth when the security operatives attacked him. He said, “My treasurer lost one of his teeth and has been whisked away; at the same time, some of our workers are already in detention and I cannot tell them to move away because it will look as if I am acting in connivance with the security operatives.” This is happening just as the fuel scarcity in the state continues to bite harder while black marketers continue to make huge sales from the scarcity. http://www.punchng.com/news/troops-nupeng-clash-as-benue-fuel-scarcity-worsens/ |

Pakistani child education activist Malala Yousafzai and Indian child rights activist Kailash Satyarthi have won the Nobel Peace Prize. At 17, Malala is the youngest recipient of the prize. The teenager was shot in the head by Taliban gunmen in October 2012 for campaigning for girls’ education. The Nobel committee said the pair were awarded the prize “for their struggle against the suppression of children and young people”. Mr Satyarthi, 60, has maintained the tradition of Mahatma Gandhi and headed various forms of peaceful protests, “focusing on the grave exploitation of children for financial gain,” the committee said. This year’s record number of 278 nominees included Pope Francis and Congolese gynaecologist Denis Mukwege, although the full list was kept a secret http://www.punchng.com/news/malala-wins-nobel-peace-prize/
