BusinessRe: Polaris Bank Dragged By Muslims For Allegedly 'Barring Muslims From Prayers' by ArewaNorth: 1:01am On Oct 16, 2022
jasminer:
Does everyone have to take a break at the same time ? That's what the mail pointed out. Everyone left their job and went for prayer leaving the banking operations and customers stranded?

Why can't the staff be split into say two or three groups. Group A goes for Jumaat this week while others work, Group B goes for Jumaat next week while others work. That way everyone is happy.

Meanwhile you didn't answer any my other questions.
You see, the kind of questions u asked do not deserve answers because u are completely ignorant of Islamic religious injunctions. You can't feign knowledgeable in the questions. Do u want Muslims to go contrary to the Islamic injunctions for ordinary banking work?
You need not to be extremely bigot as u portrayed yourself here before making justice to the situation; she supposed to sit with them and arrange their Fridays prayer leave in such away that some attend mosques that pray at earlier time and the rest leave when others come back but she is so fanatic to hsve taken that deliberate position, very stupid woman (30minutes is enough for them depending on the location of the mosque).
Unlike how u tried to make many ignorant assertions, many Muslims know a lot about Christianity and some injunctions of the religion. Your assertion is analogous to a Muslim suggesting Christians to go to church on Saturdays instead of Sundays!
BusinessRe: Polaris Bank Dragged By Muslims For Allegedly 'Barring Muslims From Prayers' by ArewaNorth: 10:31pm On Oct 15, 2022
jasminer:
If Muslims have to go to jumaat every Friday, who are the customers getting stranded at the banks? Christians? Or the same Muslims?

Secondly, since the organization needs to run on Fridays as well, should the bank prioritize employing non Muslims to avoid such issues?

If a surgeon was operating your relative who is in a bad state and demands to go and pray for the next 20mins -1hr cus it's jumaat, what will you do?

Does every business owned by a Muslim close on Friday for their staff to go for prayers? Why haven't they attacked such people? Even Dangote, don't Muslims working under him miss their jumaat?

What about traditional worshippers, worshippers of sango and olokun? Have we ever given them a single holiday off? Would you allow an olokun worshipper to have a break on Wednesday by 12noon so she can perform her rituals? At the detriment of your customers?

Christians have severally had their application for leave during Christmas/easter rejected because everyone can't go on leave. Many christians work on our most holy days just to ensure someone isn't stranded. Why can't the Muslims do this?

I'm a Christian and after seeing such news, how do you think I'll feel about employing a Muslim tomorrow?

I want to hope you're as open minded as some wonderful Muslims I know and you can tell yourself the truth.

The summary is that any company that isn't created by a religious organization and isn't operating in a place governed by religious laws is not bound to cater to any religious needs. They have the right to consent to or not to consent to it.
Section 13 of the labour act gives every employee that works for 6hours+ a rest of at least 1hour. But Polaris Bank staff that work from 8am-5pm (9hrs) aren’t allowed to observe a 30-mins Friday Prayer and Muslims are intolerant according to u.

PoliticsOver 872 Developmental Projects In Niger Delta Under Buhari – Minister by ArewaNorth(op): 10:58am On Oct 15, 2022
The Minister of the Niger Delta Affairs, Mr. Umana Okon Umana, says President Muhammadu Buhari has improved the living conditions of the people of Niger Delta region, particularly in the areas of economic development, infrastructure, investment and policy enactment.

Umana gave the commendation while answering questions on ‘Politics Nationwide’, a Radio Nigeria Audience Participatory Programme.

The Minister maintained that the Buhari administration since 2015 till date, has facilitated growth and development in the region evidenced in the records of projects undertaken by his Ministry.

“Looking at the records of the ministry (Niger Delta Affairs), we have projects that spread over several sectors: roads and bridges, education, agriculture, youth and women empowerment, housing, environment and so on. All of these areas are areas which impact seriously on the developmental agenda of the Niger Delta region.”

“Between May 29, 2015 and 2022, there are over 872 developmental projects in the region, informing that up to 60 percent of the projects sited at different States of the Niger Delta region have been completed,” he said.

The projects, according to the Minister cover roads, bridges, skills acquisition centres, housing estates, agriculture; where cassava processing mills, oil palm processing mills among others have been set up in various states of the region.

“The massive project starts from Oron in Akwa Ibom State and runs through virtually all the states in the Niger Delta to Warri. It’s been ongoing for a while and from the records, it’s 80 percent completed. This was a very huge project, in terms of magnitude.

“Last year, Mr. President, in his wisdom, directed that the Ministry of Niger Delta Affairs should hand this project over to the Ministry of Works and Housing. That was done. I must say that a significant segment of that road which the Ministry of Works and Housing is to address now from Eleme to Onne segment and it’s 15 kilometres stretch and it’s going to be six dual carriage way and rightly so because, this is an industrial hub where you have the Eleme Refinery, Indorama Petrochemical Plant, Notore Complex and Free Zone, the Onne Oil and Gas Free Zone, Onne Port, etc. So, we look at the investment and assets in that industrial hub. It is only right that, that segment of the road be properly done. It is now the responsibility of the Ministry of Works. I know there has been an agitation by members of community, but you know that as government, we have to follow due process.

“I’m aware that the Federal Ministry of Works has secured funding for that project under the Tax Liability Scheme. And it has also gone through Bureau of Public Procurement (BPP) and I think the stage now should be award of the contract.

“So, I think that the people of the Niger Delta, especially people of that community where that section of the road traverses, they can look forward to happy days and all of the operators in that zone. I speak authoritatively, knowing that with funds now in place and with Bureau of Public Procurement having done its own bid, the contract will be awarded very soon.”

general111:
But wait oh...
A bank will never allow a christian leave his work for a Christian program during work hours, why should they even have an exception for muslims....
Muslims sha
This is the ignorance that doesn't exist in a well educated Muslim in situations that affect Christians. All Muslims know that Christians are favoured and thw understanding of Muslims to go to church on sundays and made sundays weekends knowing fully well that earlier years before and after our independence Fridays and Thursdays were the weekends of most Northern Muslims but it was sacrificed because the time for the prayer isn't more than 2hrs atmost. Attending Jumaat prayer is an Islamic injunction that no Muslim should miss except in some exclusive cases known to knowledgeable Muslims.
When making this comparison, don't be so selfish and intolerant; just consider that we are living in a diverse society which all people's religious practices must be considered in our work schedules. This is pure bigotry and the damage control by the bank would've been useless if this kind of protest isn't involved. Why most of intolerance and deep bigotry from public and private organisations is against Muslims? Why always against Muslims?

PoliticsReps Seek Return Of Sokoto Caliphate’s Literary Works, Artifacts Seized By Colon by ArewaNorth(op): 9:39am On Oct 13, 2022
The House of Representatives has called for the return of all intellectual literary works and artifacts of the Sokoto Caliphate and its emirates looted and seized during the colonial era invasions.

This followed the adoption of a motion moved by Shehu Balarabe Kakale at the plenary on Wednesday.

Reps seek return of Sokoto Caliphate’s literary works, artifacts seized by colonialists

Presenting the motion, the lawmaker recalled that, there was large-scale exploitation, seizures, looting, and destruction of literary works, artifacts, and heritage articles by the European colonial invaders against the people of Sokoto Caliphate and its emirates before 1903 and the decades that followed which he said was an unforgettable painful history of the people of the caliphate.

According to him, the colonial invaders had indiscriminately violated the rights of men, women, and children and plundered valuables such as the caliphate flags, symbols, seals, and other insignia of state authority, and Staff.

The lawmaker said, “British Universities, Archives, National Library and National Records, the National Museum, Musee Du Louvre Paris, Army Museum France, Musee Du Louvre Paris, and in the North-West University of Illinois in the United States of America are alleged to be in illegal possession of the Caliphate’s historical/religious documents and artifacts such as Manuscripts, Reports, Letters and Research Works,” he said.

The mistake we do is politicizing everything or attaching it to political parties. The culprit is a civil servant in JAMB anf this has nothing to do with APC. If APC isn't interested in sll the exposed looting cases the govt would've covered them and u can't hewr sbt it but exposing the cases is also a commendable thing from the Govt especially Auditor General Office.
See evidence that show the money was misappropriated before thos adminstration came:
Saturday Sun said a team of auditors was dispatched to different state offices of JAMB to take inventory of the sold and unsold scratch cards and recover whatever money that might have either been generated or mismanaged during the period of the sale.

JAMB candidates usually purchase scratch cards to gain access to the Board’s website for either registration or for checking their admission status. But new reforms introduced by JAMB registrar, Ishaq Oloyede, who assumed office in 2016, ended the use of scratch cards, replacing it with more efficient and effective platforms.

A sales clerk, Philomina Chieshe, told JAMB registrar and his team that she could not account for N36 million she made in previous years before the abolition of scratch cards. In the course of interrogation, Philomena denied the allegations that she stole the money but confessed that her housemaid connived with another JAMB staff, Joan Asen, to “spiritually” (through a snake) steal the money from the vault in the account office”, the report said.

PoliticsBuhari Identifies Pathway For Enduring Democracy In Chad by ArewaNorth(op): 7:42pm On Oct 10, 2022
President Muhammadu Buhari has urged all stakeholders in the Chadian political process to work towards consolidating and re-establishing a resolute, resilient and sustainable democracy for the benefit of the good people of Chad.

The President, who is the current Chairman of the Lake Chad Basin Countries (LCBC), made the appeal Monday when he joined the celebrations of the people of Republic of Chad in inaugurating their interim administration to lead the country to elections and the formation of a democratic government.

At a bilateral meeting held by the two leaders, shortly before the inauguration of General Mahamat Idriss Deby Itno as the Head of the Transition Government and Head of State to oversee the transition process, President Buhari congratulated the country’s leader on behalf of the LCBC for earning the trust of the majority of Chadians to head the transition process to full fruition.

The President, in a statement issued by his spokesman, Malam Garba Shehu, equally congratulated the participants of the just-concluded Inclusive National Dialogue for the patriotism they demonstrated in reclaiming their country from the path of instability and repositioning it for sustainable governance and development.

President Buhari expressed hope that the event will, “hopefully bring to closure, the painful phase of the Chadian political history which led to the sad passage of one of Chad’s most illustrious sons, late Marshal Idriss Deby itno.”

President Buhari extolled the Chadian state’s responsible engagement within the sub-region and beyond, citing the country’s “very active involvement in the collective activities for peace within the LCBC and MNJTF, the Sahel and in the reactivation of her relationship with Sudan,” which he said were exemplary.

The President expressed his hope and that of the LCBC, which he chairs, that “today’s event will usher in another period of peace and stability within Chad and our sub-region in order to build on the gains of previous efforts.”

At the ceremony, the Head of the Transition Government, thanked President Buhari for the warmth and friendliness he had demonstrated towards the country and sub-region, especially in ensuring peace and stability.

Itno commended the Chairman of the LCBC for historic interventions in upholding the interest of the Chad Basin, and Africa, assuring that President Buhari’s leadership had been impactful.

He promised to put in place a transition process that would reflect the will of the people, while focusing on ameliorating poverty through provision of quality education, better health facilities and sustainable infrastructure.

President Buhari returned to Abuja after the ceremony in N’Djamena.
