RIYADH — Saudi Arabia will provide food and medical aid to the most devastated regions in Syria in cooperation with the International Federation of Red Cross (IFRC) and Red Crescent Societies. An agreement to this effect was signed on Saturday by Dr. Abdullah Bin Abdulaziz Al- Rabeah, supervisor general of the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Centre and adviser at the Royal Court, and Elhadj Amadou Sy, Secretary General of IFRC and Red Crescent Societies. The agreement comes in the wake of the directives of Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman to provide aid to the most devastated Syrian regions. Saudi Arabia has been supporting Syrians by providing accommodation and allowing the Syrians living in the Kingdom to bring their families and relatives to live with them unconditionally. As many as 343,150 Syrians are registered in the public education and university education in the Kingdom free of cost. In addition, free medical services are provided to Syrians in all government hospitals in the Kingdom. They are also issued permits to start business. More than 2 million Syrians have benefited from the Kingdom’s assistance since the beginning of the Syrian crisis. The Kingdom has honored commitments for Syrian refugees by providing $100 million, raising the total aid to $780 million since 2011. The people-driven aid was delivered to the Syrian refugees through the Saudi National Campaign to Support Brethren in Syria, under the direct supervision of the Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Naif. saudigazette.com.sa/saudi-arabia/king-orders-food-medical-aid-for-devastated-syrian-regions/ |
DUBAI // A 30-year-old transit passenger was arrested with more than a kilogram of cocaine wrapped around his waist, Dubai Criminal Court heard on Sunday. Nigerian E P was arrested in Terminal 3 at Dubai International Airport on December 19 last year. He was charged with attempting to carry 50 capsules of cocaine through Dubai to Nigeria. E P confessed to the charge in court. Prosecutors said a police officer suspected E P and requested his passport. “When I asked him for an identification document, he became tense, therefore I requested him to accompany me to the inspection room,” said policeman A H, 60. He said E P refused to UnCloth in the inspection room. “The area around his waist was bloated, but he refused to uncover it,” said A H, who called a major at the anti-narcotics office in the airport. E P was searched and when his trousers were lowered, police found 1.18kg of cocaine hidden inside capsules wrapped around his waist. “When we asked him about the drugs, he said it was cocaine and that he was taking them to Nigeria after he brought them from Brazil,” said A H. E P awaits a verdict on April 5. m.thenational.ae/uae/courts/man-with-1kg-of-cocaine-wrapped-around-his-waist-arrested-in-dubai-airport |

danbrowndmf:The two LGs in Kogi were pockets of people speak Igbo are Olamaboro and Ibaji and this is due to their proximity to Enugu and Anambra States. |
I do share in some of the opinions of the OP as a rational human being and a dark-skinned man. But how can you help fight a course when your partner views you as a potential threat to his success? Most times we blame the system without thinking about our very contribution to the system. |
I'm from Kogi in NC and Ebira by tribe. Favourite dish Apapaa (made from beans). I love the Yorubas for their creativity and love for learning. I love the Igbos for their hustling spirit. I love the Hausas and Fulanis for their administrative prowess. The problem most prevalent in the North is that they don't informed others about their success stories which leads to mass stereotyping and gross misrepresentation of facts. |

A few months ago, in a remote town in Idlib province, northern Syria, an unusual foreign militant presence alarmed Syrian locals. The fighters were reportedly of the Muslim Uighur minority from Xinjiang province in western China. For a population which has grown used to the multinational nature of the militancy, two aspects of these new fighters struck them: their large numbers and their ethnicity. A year ago, they were barely hundreds of Uighur fighters, belonging to the Al-Nusra Front-allied Turkistan Islamic Party (TIP). Today, according to several sources in the province, there are a few thousand Uighur fighters, and many of them arrived with their families after a long and treacherous journey from China and central Asia. The Uighur are believed to have been seen in large numbers in disparate regions of Idlib, including the strategic town of Jisr Al-Shoghur, Ariha, and the highlands of Jabal Al-Zawiya. They have settled with their families in deserted Alawite towns in Jisr Al-Shoghur, a local journalist told Al Arabiya English. Videos have emerged since last October purporting to show them fighting in Al-Ghab plains in Hama’s western countryside. And in Jib Al-Ahmar in Latakia Province, the propaganda material showcases a tank and US made anti-armor Tow missiles. The Uighur militants had reportedly moved into Syria following a Chinese-backed Pakistani campaign against their bases on the borders with Afghanistan. The Pakistani military claimed they had assassinated the group’s leader, Abdul Haq, in 2010. The Pakistani defense minister went further during a visit to China last year, to declare the Al-Qaeda linked group members have either been killed, or have left Afghanistan somehow. The Uighur’s increasing presence is believed to be behind the string of reports about possible Chinese intervention alongside the Russian and Syrian regime forces. Last December, the Chinese parliament passed a controversial counter terrorism law, which allows the Red Army to venture abroad. China started building its first overseas naval base in Djibouti, Africa, and conducted in January elite forces trainings for “desert operations” in “unfamiliar territory.” “There are weapons and technical supplies,” a Syrian regime source said, and “the Chinese Embassy’s security delegation has been expanded, suggesting preparations for a wider role, and a Chinese team of experts had arrived in Damascus’s military airport.” The major question, the source continues, is whether the Chinese military would play a crucial role in the fight to regain Idlib. However, a Chinese ground intervention remains highly unlikely, according to Prof. Steve Tsang, associate fellow at Chatham House’s Associate Program. Tsang told Al Arabiya English that he believes the Chinese government lacks both “the military capability and political will” to sustain such an engagement. “The Chinese government will support the Russians as they don’t want to see Assad fall.” A Syrian militant source in close contact with Uighur fighters believes they are in Syria to stay. The Uighur fighters speak of a treacherous journey from their home province and the Pakistan-Afghan borders to Syria, according to the source, who cites conversations with the militants. “Their journey was very costly, an Uighur fighter told me he sold his house to afford the trip here with his family members. How could he think of returning?” And unlike many other groups and foreign fighters, “they don’t hide their faces, although this carries a huge risk back home. They don’t plan to return,” says the militant. The Uighur families have allegedly settled in abandoned towns, previously inhabited by minorities, especially Alawites who fled in fear of persecution, according to two journalists from Idlib. To help this process, the Turkistan Islamic Party, previously known as the East Turkistan Islamic Movement (ETIM), printed an Arabic language magazine, Turkistan Al-Islamiya, introducing the local population and other militant groups to their plight under China’s Communist rule, especially the tensions with the Han settlers, whose immigration has been allegedly encouraged by the government to turn the Uighur into even more of a minority. “We have been largely unaware of their plight, and their magazine has helped breed some sympathy for their cause,” the Syrian militant said. However, he adds: “They remain largely poor in resources, usually aiming for free rides in transportation.” Since they are latecomers, the Uighur fighters have missed on the great spoils of heavy weaponry from the regime forces. This has reportedly left the Uighur militants totally reliant on Nusra. In fact, their relatively large number enforced the organization’s previously dwindling ranks, as it had suffered in its fight against Daesh (the so-called IS). The Uighur have allegedly played a crucial role in Nusra’s recent gains in the Idlib province. Their military achievements and their abstinence from interfering in civilian issues, such as levying taxes or enforcing Shariah law, has rendered them popular among the population, according to sources in Idlib. Their alliance with Nusra is believed to be a continuation of long ties with Al-Qaeda, and their allegiance to the Taliban movement. Xinjiang borders both Afghanistan and Pakistan, and their relationship with the Taliban extended beyond the Afghan war in 2001 until the summer of 2015. The Uighur presence has wider implications on the prospects for Syria, according to a Syrian journalist based in Aleppo. “The regional and international communities want this conflict prolonged,” he says. “This conflict is no longer about Syrians, it is the mother of many other conflicts.” — Al Arabiya News Nairaminted, Missy89 Appleyard vedaxcool saudigazette.com.sa/world/mena/chinas-proxy-war-in-syria-revealing-the-uighur-fighters-role/ |

ABUJA—THE Senate was, yesterday, told by the
Islamic Development Bank , IDB, that Nigeria
was spending 80 percent of its total revenues
to service debts.
It also ranked Nigeria as one of the countries in
the world using the largest percentage of its
revenues for debt payment.
According to IDB, this act explains why the
nation bleeds economically and this requires
urgent expansion.
Disclosing this yesterday when he visited the
Chairman, Senate Committee on Foreign and
Local Debts, Senator Shehu Sani, APC Kaduna
Central, resident representative of IDB in
Nigeria, Abdallah Kiliaki, said though Nigeria’s
debt Gross Domestic Product, GDP, ratio was
low at 17 percent, resources being used to pay
the debts were enormous, going by
percentages taken on a yearly basis.
This was even as the Chairman, Senate
Committee on Foreign and Local Debts,
Senator Shehu Sani, APC Kaduna Central,
declared that Nigeria’s total debts owed by the
states and Federal governments currently
stood at $60 billion.
According to IDB’s representative, if Nigeria
must save itself from getting suffocated by
such huge debt servicing with limited
resources, there is urgent need for Federal
Government to expand the scope of its
resources through diversification of the
economy into other critical areas, especially
agriculture, on the template of value addition
from production, to processing and to export.
He said: “My visit is very crucial, because we
need to look at the debt profile of a country
before we give it new contractual sort of
financing.”

Welcome to the land of milk and honey "Sultan Erdogan" the Putin slayer. The presence of Turkey in Africa especially Nigeria will strengthen the manufacturing and tourism sectors of both parties |
fineguy11:Coming from an ill-informed/uninformed clown that has nothing good to say other than repeating the same words like wahabist among others. Watch ISIS propaganda videos and hear from the horse's mouth as what their stated goals are. You read articles from anti-Saudi establishments that thrive on nothing except falsehood and you expect me to take you very seriously? |
fineguy11:As I've said(wrote) earlier Saudi have no benefit or whatsoever to benefit from sponsoring bloodthirsty takfiris like al-Qaida, Nusra(an affiliate of al-qaida), ISIS/ISIL/IS and other than them. It is like inviting an assassin to cone and kill you. Visit islamagainstextremism.com takfiris.com to further clarification SAUDI ARABIA BACKS ISIS?! ABU KHADEEJAH EXPLAINS IT Who benefits by backing the Daesh/ISIS can be one way to identify their backers. We know that ISIS makes huge amount of money every day by selling oil in to the black market. So if we find their buyer then it wont be very difficult to find their backers. IRAN is one of their customers and it is foreknown that this Daesh used to supply oil to the Assad regime in Syria. We heard from the propaganda spin doctors that Saudi Arabia supposedly support ISIS!! Well after the Saudi started the bombing on ISIS the propaganda masters are becoming more desperate against Saudi Arabia. Nonsense refuted in this two minute video that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia are backing the terrorist group ISIS/ISIL. The main goal of Al- Qaeda/ISIS is to overthrow the Saudi regime!! They attacked Saudi Arabia in the past when Osama Bin Laden was leading them. Reported ISIS Member Says They Will Destroy The Kaaba In Mecca, 'Kill Those Who Worship Stones' One of the Daesh member said "If Allah wills, we will kill those who worship stones in Mecca and destroy the Kaaba. People go to Mecca to touch the stones, not for Allah." Reference: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/07/01/ isis-destroy-kaaba-mecca_n_5547635.html https://youtube.com/watch?v=05yw1IXM1k4 |
SirShymexx:Do you want a match up with me? |
Someone up here is saying the Western elites love Putin and his policies, that's because they're far away from Russia and listen to Russian propaganda. Ask the East Europeans how they feel about Russia and Central-Asians? They will tell a different story and expose the evil intent of Russia across the region and in the international arena. |
NairaMinted:I tagged you to clarify things to you it doesn't matter if you agree with me or not, my concern are the silent observers that may be misled by your posts. |
NairaMinted:your opinion was wrong that's why I took the time to refute it. No ill feelings |
Vedaxcool come and see how this OP murdered "Putinverstehers" like Appleyard, Nairaminted, Shymmexx and other than them. Missy89 you already know who's back |
NairaMinted:For your info the your so called medieval regime has the lowest crime rate in the world, your so called medieval regime made their people to be the third happiest people on earth. Saudi has a law and if you are not pleased with their laws, they don't force to stay in their land or conduct business with them. Saudi are not exporting any brand of Islam, what they practice and spread is the unadulterated form of Islam though they're not perfect. What is wrong in doing missionary works to invite others to the correct method of worship? They assist poorer Muslim countries to ease the pains of their citizens that's whatt we call brotherhood. As for your claim of human rights abuses, your definition of human rights is flawed because yours is based on lewdness and other immoral acts. And theirs is defined by what the religion stipulates. As for the analyst he doesn't speak for the government that's his own opinion and he's entitled to it. There is propaganda against Saudi and you know it. |
vedaxcool:This is what I was saying in essence chubhiee |
If I may ask you what's the stated goal of ISIS and al-Qaida fineguy11? Let me tell to overthrow the Saudi regime. So of what benefit will it be to Saudi to support them? Morally, politically, theologically and economically Saudi and those takfiris are not the same and will never be the same. These articles were cut and paste articles written by modernists, Iranian agents, and others that have hatred for Saudi it will only convince people with the same mindset as the writers. |
Naomite:Learn to read because readers are leaders. Get informed or stay deformed |
Godsonkemz:Your heroes GEJ and NOI borrowed from IDB in the first place and Anambra was the first state to borrow from Jaiz bank. You are just plain ignorant and hate filled for my liking. We are tired of you slowpokes ranting over a Non-Issue, open your eyes and reason like an educated man with sense. |
lordliri:Wasn't Anambra the first state to borrow from Jaiz bank to fund some of her projects? Your argument is stale and learn to be an educated man with sense. |
Brotherhood And Sisterhood Upon Islaam Is To
Be Genuine, Not Fake
The Noble Shaykh Zayd al-Madkhalee ( ﺭﺣﻤﻪ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ)
stated:
It is not befitting for the Muslims that their
brotherhood/sisterhood is merely speech and
smiling, (when in reality) there exists between
them opposition in the hearts from which the
tongues speak. Rather it is obligatory that their
brother/sisterhood is genuine in that which is
apparent and hidden. A believing brother/sister
does not harbor hatred against his believing
brothers/sisters. (This is so) even if there exists
between them matters of opposition in the
attainment of personal or worldly affairs.
Indeed these matters do not leave for an
opening for him to harbor hatred against his
Muslim brothers/sisters. Rather it is obligatory
that he is one who is sincere in the matter of
brotherhood/sisterhood and that he is truthful,
in order that the hearts unite and harmonize
upon the truth.

, along with training in the Kingdom for the preachers and teachers who went on to teach and work at these universities, schools, mosques, etc. The funding was also used to reward journalists and academics who followed the Saudis' strict interpretation of Islam; and satellite campuses were built around Egypt for Al Azhar, the world's oldest and most influential Islamic university.
