The police in Katsina State said to have arrested 43 persons suspected to be involved in Monday’s protest which led to the death of one person and injury to several others.

Youths in their numbers took to the street at Daddara village, in Jibia Local Government Area to reportedly protest over incessant security challenges facing their communities. They protested against activities killing, raping and rustling animals by bandits in the area.



They set car tires ablaze and blocked the road linking Jibia and Katsina metropolitan area and smashed the windscreen of vehicles passing by. The youths reportedly set the police border control post, Nigeria Immigration checkpoint, as well as several vehicles in the area, ablaze.

Although the youths said they were protesting incessant security challenges in the area, the police, however, attributed the protest to
smugglers’ activities.

The police, in a statement, said the riot was purportedly sponsored by smugglers and their agents targeting joint border patrol personnel and their facilities.

“The rioters smashed and damaged the windscreen of many motor vehicles of innocent commuters passing through the highway.

“Consequently, the command swiftly deployed teams of Police mobile Force (PMF) and conventional units to the area and have succeeded in arresting forty-three (43) persons found rioting.



“The teams have brought the situation under control as normalcy has returned to the area. But sadly one person lost his life during the fracas.

“Investigation revealed that the riot was purportedly sponsored by smugglers and their agents targeting joint border patrol personnel and their facilities.

“Investigation is ongoing with a view to arresting more perpetrators and their sponsors to book, as the Commissioner of Police, Katsina State Command, CP Sanusi Buba, psc has promised to bring all perpetrators to book to serve as a deterrent to others.”

Crime / Court Orders Senator Abbo To Pay 50million To The Woman He Beat. by Beadysworld: 3:05pm On Sep 28, 2020
The federal high court has ordered senator Elish Abbo to pay N50 million to Osimibibra Warmate as compensation for assaulting her.

The emergence of a video that captured Abbo assaulting Warmate in May 2019 led to widespread outrage and a teary-eyed public apology from the 42-year-old lawmaker.



The representative of Adamawa North Senatorial District was subsequently charged with two counts of criminal use of force and criminal assault when he was arraigned before a Chief Magistrates’ Court in Abuja on July 8, 2019.

The magistrate, Abdullahi Ilelah, ruled in July 2020 that the evidence and exhibits tendered to the court did not prove criminal charges against the lawmaker.

The lawmaker was asked to pay a fine of N50 million and tender a public apology to his victim.

A report submitted last year by a Senate committee that investigated the case against Abbo is yet to be considered by the chamber because the case was also in court.

However, a fundamental rights suit filed by Warmate before the High Court found Abbo liable for the assault.

Politics / Marafa Urge Buhari, Implement 8th Senate Resolution On Killings. by Beadysworld: 9:43am On Sep 28, 2020
Senator Kabir Marafa has urged the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), to implement the eighth Senate resolution on the bandits’ killings in Zamfara State to curtail the spillover to neighbouring Katsina and Sokoto.

Marafa, who represented Zamfara Central in the eighth Senate, urged the Federal Government to extend a “small fraction” of what was being done in the North-East to Zamfara State

The resolution was passed towards the end of the 8th National Assembly, where we called on the Federal Government to extend a small fraction of what has been done in North-East in Zamfara, by constituting a Presidential Initiative Committee on Zamfara State, give the Committee seed money of N10 billion and the same amount to be given every year for 10 years to assist the situation on the ground,” he said.

The former lawmaker stated this while addressing newsmen shortly after he gave out 13 female orphans and his daughter for marriage in Kaduna on Saturday.

The 13 female orphans, according to the former lawmaker, lost their parents to bandits attacks in Zamfara State. According to him, between 2011 and 2019, there are over 40,000 orphans whose parents were killed by bandits in Zamfara.

“So, I am calling on Mr President as the father of the nation to look at that Senate resolution of 2019 and implement it because that is the only way we can curtail the spillover we are now seeing in Katsina, Sokoto and other places.

“When people are hungry and somebody gives them an N100,000 and AK47 rifle, they will follow the person, but if these orphans are properly catered for and trusted persons are appointed to manage the resources, we can tame the monster called banditry to the barest minimum,”
he said.

Education / 5 Reasons Most Certificate Holders Are Poor . by Beadysworld: 10:26pm On Sep 26, 2020
THEY DON’T THINK BEYOND THEIR CERTIFICATES


Albert Einstein said, “Education is not the learning of facts, but the training of the mind to think.” Have you ever heard creativity term “Think outside the box”?

One of the major reasons why most graduates are poor is simply because they can’t see and think beyond their certificates.

I have seen engineering students work as bankers. I have seen medical doctors with great skills in web and graphic designs. I have seen lawyers that are very dexterous with finances. The list is endless! the basic truth of life is that the skills that are needed to be much sought after and become more successful in life are not really found within the walls of the classrooms. Your certificate is just proof that you are teachable, it does not suggest what you are totally capable of doing. You are full of possibilities when you think beyond your degrees and certificates.

2, THEY PRIORITIZE THEIR CERTIFICATES MORE THAN THEIR NATURAL GIFTS AND TALENTS

I have often advised some of my colleagues, never to leave their gifts dormant while pursuing and hunting for jobs with their certificates. There must be a complementary balance in the pursuit of your passion and in the search for jobs, Everybody is gifted for something, but the winning edge comes from our ability to work on our gifts and bless the world with it. The very best way to develop yourself is in the direction of your natural talents and interest. In order to live a fulfilled and impactful life, we need to work harder on our gift than our job. We need to discover our gift, develop it, and sell it. Don’t bury your TALENT with your certificates which most people have been doing..

Crime / Threat Of State Of Emergency On South East States. by Beadysworld: 9:41am On Sep 18, 2020
The attention of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide has been drawn to a statement credited to the Chief of Army Staff, General Tukur Buratai, threatening to impose a state of emergency in the South East if Governors of the states allowed any further attack on security forces in the states, a statement he has not denied.
While Ohanaeze Ndigbo decries violence in any form in the states, it takes particular exception to an open threat and warning to South-East governors who by the country’s constitution are chief security officers of their states but are lame ducks in practice as all security commands come from Abuja.
Ohanaeze Ndigbo finds it particularly provocative for General Buratai to issue such a warning to governors of the South East where relative peace prevails while he has not done the same in the North Central, North West and North East which have become theatres of war and where many have been killed, where army posts and bases have been subjected to incessant attacks by the Boko Haram, ISWA/ISIS, bandits and Fulani herdsmen, killing and maiming Nigerian soldiers.
Ohanaeze Ndigbo also wonders where the army chief derives the power to issue such a threat which under the country’s constitution can only be carried out by the National Assembly on demand by the President.
It is highly surprising that an army chief who was watching as the governor of Katsina State was negotiating and taking pictures with armed bandits would turn round to threaten to impose a state of emergency in states where unarmed citizens are agitating against the harsh and inhuman conditions they have been subjected to by their country.

Nairaland / General / Nigerians React Over One Year Independence Celebration Plan. by Beadysworld: 8:36am On Sep 17, 2020
Federal Government’s plan to mark Nigeria’s 60th Independence anniversary for a whole year — beginning on October 1, 2020, and ending September 30, 2021 — became subject of controversy yesterday, with ethnic nationalities and socio-cultural organisations taking a swipe at the official decision.

The Pan Niger Delta Forum (PANDEF), the Middle Belt Forum, Arewa leaders and stakeholders within the Aka Ikenga, an Igbo socio-cultural organisation condemned the plan as “a joke.” Yoruba socio-cultural organisation, Afenifere, described President Muhammadu Buhari and his cabinet members as complete jokers who lack focus on what Nigeria actually needed to progress and unite.

Buhari had, yesterday, unveiled a logo and theme for the 60th independence anniversary celebration in a brief ceremony conducted just before the weekly virtual Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting at the Council Chambers of the Presidential Villa, Abuja. In what appeared a contradiction, the President said the anniversary celebration would be held low-key this year for reasons of the COVID-19 pandemic

The President, who spoke after the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Boss Mustapha, gave insight into how the logo was adopted and the modalities guiding the anniversary celebration, added that his administration would henceforth ensure inclusiveness.
The President disclosed the theme of this year’s anniversary celebration as “Together Shall We Are,” saying it was chosen to forge a more united and cohesive Nigeria.

A three-man panel, in a unanimous judgment read by Justice Stephen Adah, held that it found nothing wrong with the June 25, 2019 judgment of Justice Hussein Baba-Yusuf of the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, which convicted the pastor.

Justice Adah ruled that Princewill’s appeal against the lower court’s verdict lacked merit and struck it out.

He ruled, “Having looked at the arguments in the appeal and the records, as well as the evidence adduced in the case, I hold that the lower court did not do anything wrong by sentencing the appellant to seven years imprisonment.

“The appeal failed and the judgment of the lower court is hereby upheld.”

Princewill, who was then 33 years old, was said to have forcefully had sexual intercourse with the victim between July 27 and December 31, 2011, at Mountain Mover Ministry International and his house in Nyanya, Abuja.

The victim was said to have been impregnated in the process.

He was said to have threatened to kill her if she dared to tell anyone.

The President of Trade Union Congress (TUC), Quadri Olaleye, stated the position of workers yesterday at a dialogue on the economy between the organise labour and

This is as the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Timipre Sylva, insisted that the Federal Government could not have held discussion with labour before taking a policy decision.

Olaleye got the support of the General Secretary of National Union of Electricity Employees (NUEE), Joe Ajaero, who is also a deputy president of the NLC. He lamented that the involvement of workers came after the Federal Government had taken the decision to increase prices.

“We think the Federal Government is speaking to us now and not speaking with us. If the government wants to engage us, it ought to have called for a meeting where issues would be looked at dispassionately and positions arrived at. Why would the government think increment would automatically lead to an improvement in electricity to Nigerians? This latest increment is the fifth since the power sector was privatised. Did that lead to the improved power supply? In fact, each increase shows the power sector might have been hijacked.

Politics / 41 Journalists Have Been Attacked In Nigeria In 8 Months – Ipc by Beadysworld: 9:28am On Sep 08, 2020
No Fewer than 41 journalists have been attacked at different locations in the country in the course of their duties between January and August 2020, the International Press Centre (IPC), says.

IPC Programme Officer, Mrs Melody Akinjiyan-Lawal, made the revelation during a webinar on Edo and Ondo State elections in Benin on Monday.



The webinar was organised by the IPC, in conjunction with the Association of Communication Scholars and Professionals of Nigeria (ACSPN) for journalists.

Akinjiyan-Lawal, who spoke on journalists’ safety during elections, said of the 41 attacks, 35 were on male, while five were on female and one was on a media house.

She noted that the nature of the attacks was in the form of harassment, threats to life, physical abuse and verbal assault as well as damage to work equipment, among others.

The programme officer explained that journalists needed to take cognisance of the fact that nothing had changed in the way and manner politicians viewed election to be a do-or-die affair.

“So journalists must report effectively while staying safe in the dangerous electoral terrain we still operate.



“In this regard, it is important for journalists to situate their role and interest in the context of the interest of the two major stakeholders which are the politicians and the people.

“The candidates and their supporters in these elections will not care whose ox is gored for them to actualise their ambition.

“Journalists need to keep abreast of this fact so as not to be victims of any crossfire,” she said.

According to Akinjiyan-Lawal, journalists covering the Edo and Ondo elections must not be partisan but must be smart and ensure that they moved in groups during the exercise.

In his remarks, Mr Rotimi Oyekanmi, Chief Press Secretary to INEC Chairman, spoke on the proactive measures taken by the commission to address security concerns ahead of the polls.

Oyekanmi said consultations with the Inter Consultative Committee on Election Security (ICCES) in Edo and Ondo were on-going to ensure the safety of everybody during and after the elections.



“About two weeks ago, the INEC Chairman, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, led a delegation to meet with the revered Oba of Benin, to ask him to intervene and appeal to political actors to allow a peaceful election.

“The respected monarch promised to invite them to his palace for interaction and he has already done so.

“Plans have also been concluded for all the 14 political parties participating in the election to sign a peace accord in the coming days,” he said.

According to him, with all the efforts, it is hoped that the election will be held peacefully.

Earlier in an address, the Executive Director, IPC, Lanre Arogundade, said the training was one in a series for journalists across the country, under the European Union support for democratic governance in Nigeria.

He said the safety of journalists was paramount in the Edo and Ondo State polls hence tagging the training, “Imperative of Safety Consciousness and Conflict Sensitivity in Media Coverage and Repor, READ MORE HERE;https://beadysworld.tv/41-journalists-have-been-attacked-in-nigeria-in-8-months-ipc/
