All schools across the 23 Local Government Areas
in Kaduna have been ordered by the State
government to shut down.

This followed an upsurge of the COVID-19 in the
state, according to the State Commissioner for
Education, Dr. Shehu Makarfi.

The statement directed all schools in the state to
close as from Wednesday, December 16, 2020.
Makarfi said the measure was taken to curb the
spread of the COVID-19 pandemic following its
second wave in the state.

The Commissioner in a statement issued on
Tuesday said the ministry decided to shut down
the schools due to the rising cases of COVID-19
infections in the state.

According to him, the rising cases of COVID-19
showed a replicate of figures recorded in the
first wave of the pandemic in April, May and June
2020, indicating that a new wave of the infection
is rapidly spreading across the state.

He noted that the State’s Ministry of Health has
further confirmed that, while the infections cut
across age groups, the new wave especially,
affects those between 10 and 35 years (which
form a majority of the populace in the education
sector).

He added that in its effort to contain the spread
of the pandemic and save the lives of people in
the state, the state “is directing all public and
private schools to conclude all necessary
arrangements and close on Wednesday, 16th
December, 2020 as opposed to the initial closings.”
All examinations, the commissioner said, must be
concluded on or before Tuesday, 15th December,
2020 in all institutions of learning across the
state.

He added that physical classes in the universities
and other institutions of Higher Learning would
not be held during the period of closure.
He said Institutions can make other arrangements
for teaching and learning and other activities in
line with their continuity and contingency plans.

The commissioner said to minimise the impact on
teaching and learning, all schools would continue to
plan lessons and where possible, provide online
resources for students or online lessons where
schools are equipped to do so.

“Learners in the basic, post basic and secondary
school levels could continue learning while at home
from the Kaduna State TV and Radio e-Learning
Programmes,” the statement noted.

The statement read, “ the ministry wishes to
inform the general public, parents, guardians and
students of the date of school’s closure due to
rising cases of COVID-19 infections in the state
which shows a replicate of figures recorded in the
first wave of the pandemic in April, May and June
2020. Indicating that a new wave of the infection
is rapidly spreading across the state.”

According to Kadaria Ahmed, media personality,
Abdul Labaran, spokesman of the Katsina
government, disclosed this in a chat with RadioNow
FM.

She quoted Labaran as saying the gunmen have
asked the parents to start making preparations
for ransom to facilitate the release of the
students.

Labaran also reportedly said the gunmen also
asked the parent to warn security operatives to
stop the surveillance of their hideouts to
guarantee the safety of the students.

“Abdul Labaran DG Media for the Katsina govt
just told @RadioNow953FM gunmen who abducted
Kankara Students have phoned a parent and told
him to begin gathering ransom money and asked
him to tell the military to desist from air
surveillance of their hiding place or else,” Kadaria
tweeted.

But the defence headquarters has said the
military action will continue despite talks with the
suspected bandits by the state government.

When he featured on a Channels Television
programme on Monday night, John Eneche,
defence spokesman, said the military operation to
rescue the kidnapped students is ongoing.

,“You don’t stop whatever efforts you are putting
up militarily for what we call the non-kinetic (or)
the other approach. No, you don’t stop, all of
them go concurrently,” he said.

“For instance, if they (the students) are kept in
a place that is known, if you relax, they will slip
out. So, all actions are on the table to ensure
that we come to a meeting point and the meeting
point is to ensure that we don’t get collateral
damage in our efforts to get them (the students)
out.”

“The troops and other security agencies have been
adequately deployed to ensure that they (the
students) are rescued alive, that is the most
important thing for us. And that is what we have
for the general public that there is hope, we need
them out alive.”

Gunmen had stormed the school on Friday night
and abducted the students.

The Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Tukur
Buratai has in a post shared on his verified
Facebook page disclosed that there is likelihood
of terrorism persisting in Nigeria for another 20
years.

Buratai who noted that "citizens responsibility"
is equally important and imperative, added that
curbing terrorism depends on the level of
escalation and the appropriate responses by all
stakeholders both civil and military authorities.

He wrote;

There is general misunderstanding of what insurgency and terrorism entail. There is likelihood of terrorism persisting in Nigeria for another 20 years. It only depends on the level of escalation and the appropriate responses by all stakeholders both civil and military authorities. Also by both local in international actors.

Citizens responsibility is equally important and
imperative. All must cooperate to contain the lingering insecurity. Let there be collective action and
responsibility.

A lady identified as Chinenye and her boyfriend,
Chinedu Nwode were killed by suspected cultists
at Oriuzor community in Ezza North Local
Government Area of Ebonyi state on Sunday,
November 29.

The killings reportedly followed a renewed clash
between two rival cults in the state, the
Baggers and Aye confraternities.

It was gathered that the couple were returning
from a child dedication in Oriuzor to Onueke
when they were shot dead.

https://alexis.lindaikejisblog.com/photos/shares/5fc7925dcebee.jpg

The killing was said to have angered some
persons suspected to be members of the Aye
Confraternity, who in turn killed one Chikwado
Nweke and another man at Onueke community in
the same local government.

https://alexis.lindaikejisblog.com/photos/shares/5fc782b8f2c07.jpg

Spokesperson of the State Police Command, DSP
Loveth Odah, who confirmed the incident on
Tuesday, December 2, condemned the spate of
unreported cult killings in the area.

"This is bad and I don’t know why these things
are more often heard of in this area. This is
condemnable and it’s unfortunate that those
who lost their loved ones to these crises have
not come up to identify themselves. How can
these things be happening in that place and
these are brothers and they are just killing
themselves," said Odah.

"On hearing this ugly news, the Ebonyi State
Commissioner of Police, Mr Philip Maku, deployed
men of the command in the area to ensure that
more lives are not lost. The police are
investigating the matter and soon, we will tell
you what really happened." she added.

Car owners in the country will have to
pay N250,000 to convert their cars to autogas.

Justice Derefaka, Technical Adviser on Gas
Business and Policy Implementation to Minister
of State for Petroleum, Timipre Sylva who
appeared on a Channels Television programme on
Wednesday December 2 after the Group
Managing Director, Nigerian National Petroleum
Corporation (NNPC), Mele Kyari on Tuesday
December 1 said that one million cars are to be
powered by Autogas free of charge, averred
that vehicle owners will have different payment
plans to covert their cars to autogas.

He said;

“The cost varies. So in terms of cost
implication, it depends on the cylinder
of the vehicle and of course, for a
typical SUV cylinder, it is a bit higher
but on the average, it is around
N200,000 to N250,000 and this is for a
four-cylinder vehicle but it becomes a
little bit higher for a six-cylinder SUV
vehicle.”

Also commenting on the different payment plans
for car owners who want to convert their cars,
Derefaka stated that the conversion is not
totally free.

He added;

“The owner of the car basically will
decide to say I want to run on autogas
or CNG or LNG and like the honourable
minister had mentioned it as well,
conversion basically, has different
strands, you can partner with your bank
and then the bank will now agree with
the conversion centre to say ‘Convert
this our customer’s car for free.’ Not
free in its entirety.

“But then you now go and covert your
vehicle. What happens is that the
installer will put some form of
mechanism that each time you buy the
gas; a certain amount will be deducted
to pay for the conversion kits.”

Dimissing fears of many Nigerians seeing the
conversion fee as expensive, the aide noted that
payment can be done within five to seven
months.

Derefaka said;

“And that in its self has saved you the
use of gas in lieu of petrol to about
45-50 per cent,” the Marine
Engineering graduate from the Rivers
State University (RSU), Port Harcourt
added. “So, there is a huge cost-saving
in that regard.”

right or wrong?

The House of Representatives has reached a
resoution of inviting the British High
Commissioner to Nigeria, Catriona Laing over
the recent comment made by a British lawmaker
against former Head of State, Yakubu Gowon.

The resolution was reached following a motion
from a lawmaker Yusuf Gagdi, who is from the
same constituency as the former head of state.

Recall that the British lawmaker had
on November 23, accused Gowon of taking half
of the money in the Central Bank of Nigeria
with him when he went on exile.

The Nigerian lawmakers who will be seeking an
explanation from the British envoy on why no
apology has been issued despite calls for
same, mandated the Committee on Foreign
Affairs to interface with the Foreign Affairs
Committee of the British parliament over the
comments.

The house of representatives members averred
that the allegation of looting is capable of
causing a crisis in Nigeria and disturb the peace
of the country.

Following the adoption of Gagdi’s motion, the
House also asked the Speaker, Femi
Gbajabiamila to write to Speaker of UK
Parliament to express displeasure over the
unfounded allegations.

He will also be demanding that the Member of
Parliament who made the allegation, should
offer a public apology to Gowon as well as the
people and government of Nigeria.

ABUJA — Worried over the escalating security
situation in the country, the House of
Representatives,, yesterday asked service chiefs
to immediately resign their offices or be sacked
by President Muhammed Buhari.

The House, in a resolution, said the Service
Chiefs have not been able to address the
security challenges plaguing the country since
2015 when they were appointed by the
President.

On its part, the Senate called on President
Buhari to, as a matter of urgency, sack the
Service Chiefs, who were appointed July 2015,
contending that that they have done their part
and at the moment, are out of ideas and have
overstayed their welcome.

Similarly, Speaker of the House of
Representatives, Mr Femi Gbajabiamila, has
described Amotekun, a South-West regional
security initiative and similar regional outfits,
as solutions to the raging problem of insecurity
in the country.

Reps asks service chiefs to resign
The Reps regretted that the security top brass
have adopted ineffective strategies that have
failed to yield positive results.

A motion by the Chief Whip of the House,
Mohammed Monguno (APC, Borno) and 14 others,
asked President Buhari to sack the service
chiefs if they failed to resign their positions.

Monguno, who expressed concern over the
growing blood-letting from attacks by Boko
Haram and the Islamic State West African
Province, ISWAP, insurgents in the North-East,
recalled that activities of the insurgents, were
drastically reduced earlier in Borno and Yobe
States, before the latest resurgence in attacks
on communities.

He said, “Recently, the insurgents have forced
the Nigerian Military to close traffic on the
Damaturu-Maiduguri Road for some days. The
Damaturu-Maiduguri Road is the only access
road from Maiduguri to other parts of Nigeria.”

Abubakakar Fulata (APC, Jigawa) in his
contribution, called for the withdrawal of
security personnel serving in the North East and
their replacement with new personnel, adding
that the long stay of the security personnel has
largely contributed to their inefficiency as they
were tired of remaining there.

Chairman, Committee on Army, Mr Abdulrazaq
Namdas (APC, Adamawa), said, the rise in
attacks by Boko Haram in the North-East and
increasing insecurity in across the country, was
troubling, but opposed the idea of removing all
the personnel currently serving in the area,
saying their experience was still needed to assist
those that will be sent to work there.

On his part, Francis Waive (PDP, Rivers), said
the issue of insecurity in the country was
general and needed to be addressed holistically
and warned that every Nigerian should be
concerned about what is going on in the country.

He however, asked the Service Chiefs to resign,
stressing that the President should take another
look at the Service Chief with a view to
replacing them with fresh hands who will bring
fresh ideas into the security system in the
country.

Beni Lar (APC, Plateau) argued that the North-
Eastern part of the country has gradually been
brought to a standstill with the resurgence in
activities of Boko Haram, stressing that the
lawmakers cannot sit back and watch as if
nothing was happening.

Tobi Okechukwu (PDP, Enugu), said the nation
needs to interrogate how it conducts the
business of security in the country, questioning
why the government should be investing heavily
on Trader Moni when there is no money to
adequately fund the security agencies.
Minority Leader, Mr Ndudi Elumelu in his
contribution suggested more investment in
equipment for the security agencies, stressing
that there was no way you can ask a policeman
to rescue you when he is poorly equipped. He
said there were lots of things going on in the
country which need urgent attention.

Sada Soli (APC, Katsina), argued that the
President was not being told the truth about
developments in the north east.

In amending the original motion, Francis Waive
asked the House to demand the immediate
resignation of the Service Chiefs, while some
other members said the President should
immediately sack them.

But the Chairman of the House Committee on
Defence, Jimi Benson(APC, Lagos), said the laws
allow the President to keep the Service Chiefs
for as long as he wishes, but expressed concern
over recent developments in the country.

He said: “The National Security Adviser is from
the North East and cannot get to his village.
The Chief of Army Staff is also from the North
East and cannot get to his village. The Chief of
Air staff too. That speaks volumes of their
ability.

“But the solution lies in the hands of the
President. I don’t know why he has kept them
since 2015 when they were first appointed. He
should decide whether to continue to keep them
or not. I believe the resolution here will prick his
conscience.”

The House resolved that the leadership of the
House and indeed the National Assembly should
hold a tripartite meeting with the President and
the Service Chiefs with a view to finding lasting
solution to the security challenges.

Senate toes similar line

Toeing the same line, the Senators called on
President Buhari to as a matter of urgency
sack the Service Chiefs who were appointed July
2015 against the backdrop that they have done
their part and at the moment, they are out of
ideas as they have overstayed their welcome.
Declare national security emergency, Senate
tells Buhari

For six hours yesterday, the security challenges
in the country was the subject of discourse by
the Senators, who came to the conclusion that
the security infrastructure has failed in the
country and that President Buhari, should as a
matter of urgency declare a national security
emergency.

The Senate also summoned the Inspector-
General of Police, IGP, Mohammed Adamu to
appear before it next Wednesday to brief them
on the security challenges, architecture,
methods employed so far and the way forward
towards addressing the problems.

The Senate also set up a 17-member ad- hoc
Committee with the Senate Leader, Senator
Abdullahi Yahaya (APC, Kebbi North), as
chairman, saddled with the responsibility of
engaging the Security Agencies and reporting
back to the Senate in two weeks time.

The committee which will also engage the
National Security Adviser, Major-General
Mohammed Monguno on the implementation
modalities of the December 2019 national
security strategies, will also engage the National
Security Institute to discuss their operational
structures, funding, equipment and staff
disposition with a view to reviewing the national
security architecture to make it more responsive
in tackling the myriad security chalienges facing
the nation and the people.

The committee will also produce a draft
implementation modality/blueprint on the ways
and means of tackling the current securty
challenges for the consideration of the Senate.

‘Fire service chiefs now’

Senators also called on President Buhari to as a
matter of urgency sack the Service Chiefs,
against the backdrop that they have done their
part and at the moment, have ran out ideas as
they have overstayed their welcome.

According to the Senators, the time has come
for the Chief of Defence Staff, General
Abayomi Olonisakin; National Security Adviser,
NSA, Major-General Monguno; Chief of Army
Staff, Lt. General Tukur Buratai; Chief of Air
Staff, Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar and Chief
of Naval Staff, Vice Marshal Ibok- Ete Ibas to
give way for fresh brains to man the country’s
security system.

Particularly in their remarks, Senators Betty
Apiafi, Matthew Urhoghide, Emmanuel Bwacha,
Binos Yaros, Elisha Abbo, Abba Moro, Olamilekan
Adeola, Sani Musa, Bamidele Opayemi, Rochas
Okorocha, Francis Alimikhena, among others
called for the immediate sack of the security
chiefs in order to give room for new ones who
may have new ideas.

Also prominent during the debate was the call
for State Policing, if the present security
challenges must be addressed in all its
ramifications because the present central
security infrastructure has failed the country.

On his part, Senator Abbo who called for the
sack of the Service Chiefs said, “ We have never
had it bad in this country in the area of
security. The Service Chiefs appointed in July
2015 and according to report by the Budget
Office, from 2012 to 2014, N4.5 trillion have
been received by the Military and there are
grumblings within the Military and silence is no
longer golden. The Service Chiefs have run out
of ideas.”

Split over state Police

There was however, a sharp division among
Senators who advocated State Policing and those
who kicked against it. Senators who supported
the urgent need for the establishment of State
Policing for effective policing in the country
were Senators Olamilekan Adeola, Ibikunle
Amosun, Oluremi Tinubu, Smart Adeyemi,
Ibrahim Shekarau, Matthew Urhoghide,
Olubunmi Adetunmbi, Tanko Al-Makura, Sandy
Onor, among others.

Deputy President of the Senate, Senator Ovie
Omo Agege; Senators Gabriel Suswam and
Danjuma Goje, Adamu Aliero, and Abubakar
Yusuf, , kicked against the establishment of
state police.

From 11.30a.m., to 4.25p.m., the Senators took
time to debate on the motion entitled,
“Security Challenges: Urgent need restructure,
review and reorganise the current Security
Architecture.”

The motion was sponsored by the Senate Leader,
Senator Yahaya Abdullahi, and co- sponsored by
105 Senators.

I believe that his friends had hands on this. He was setup probably.

Minister of Information and Culture , Lai Mohammed, on Monday, in Makurdi , the Benue State capital advanced the reason why Boko Haram activities may continue unabated , saying that Nigeria has been denied access to acquire adequate weapons to fight terrorists.

Speaking to journalists after he paid a courtesy visit on the state governor , Samuel Ortom, at the government house, Mohammed said “Nigerians will remain at the mercy of terrorists” .

The minister described the killing of rice farmers as ‘ unfortunate’ but noted that to decimate the terrorist group, the country needed more support from global partners as well as acquiring adequate weapons to fight them .

The minister said , “ When we talk about terrorism , people don ’ t seem to appreciate that terrorism is not a local issue , it is a global issue and there is no part of the world that doesn’ t experience its own pocket of terrorism .

“But you must also note that we are dealing with terrorists who are financed globally and we also need more support from global partners, for instance , Nigeria has made an attempt to acquire a better and more effective platform to deal with terrorists but for one reason or the other we have been denied this platform , these weapons and without adequate weapons or platform we remain at the mercy of terrorists.

The minister further said , “ You see fighting terrorists is not a joke because what actually happened in Borno State is unfortunate but you must also look at the strategy of the terrorists.

“Terrorists use media and publicity as oxygen, so when they go on this kind of mindless killing of people . It is not that the government is not doing enough, terrorism whether in Afghanistan or anywhere in the world has the same concept , a group of people who are extremist in their thoughts who don’ t think that you and me should be
alive.”

Governor Samuel Ortom commended the federal government for the deployment of Operation Whirl Stroke to the state .

careless talk

Presidential spokesman Garba Shehu reacted to
the murder of scores of farmers in Zabarmari
village by asking whether the victims got
military clearance before resuming farming.

Mr. Shehu said this while speaking to BBC
'Newsday' on Sunday, November 29, hours after
the gruesome killings.

Garba Shehu said the government was sad about
the tragic incident, but added that the "people
need to understand what it is like in the Lake
Chad Basin area."

He insisted that much of the area has been
liberated from Boko Haram terrorists but
said there are still some areas that have not
been cleared for the return of villagers who
have been displaced.

He continued: "The truth has to be said. Was
there any military clearance from the military
who are in total control of the area?

"Did anybody ask to resume activity?"

Mr. Shehu said he had been briefed by military
authorities that the villagers did not seek
military advice before exposing themselves to "a
window that the terrorists have exploited."

He added: "So ideally, all of these places ought
to probably be allowed to pass through proper
military clearance before resettlement or even
farmers resuming activities on those fields."

His statement comes only hours after at least
43 rice farmers were slaughtered by Boko
Haram terrorists while they were working on
their farms.

Hisbah Conducts Door-to-door Search To Fish Out ‘Sinners’ In Kano

Officials of Hisbah in Kano State on Friday conducted a door-to-door search at Hills and Valley, a holiday and relaxation resort located at Dawakin Kudu, Kano metropolis.

SaharaReporters gathered that staff of the resort were made to take Hisbah personnel round all parts of the building.

During the search, operatives of the Islamic security outfit searched all rooms and spaces to detect 'sinners’.

Despite condemnation from Nigerians, Hisbah group has continued its push for Islamic agenda in the North.

The agency established to enforce Sharia law in some states in the region recently banned stylish haircuts, sagging of trousers, playing of music at social events by disk jockeys and seizing tricycle from riders for adorning them with pictures considered to be obscene and against the tenents of Islam.

Hisbah also banned commercial motorcycle and tricycle riders from carrying two women at a time.

This was in addition to other unusual directives reeled out by the Islamic police.

Hisbah recently made headlines for shaving stylish haircuts of young men in Kano and arresting people for improper dressing

Earlier in the month, the group destroyed bottles of beer worth over N300m in Kano, Kaduna and Katsina states.

The disagreement between the two ministers,
according to a top source, has further confirmed
insinuations that there was division among top
aides of President Muhammadu Buhari.

Humanitarian Affairs Minister Sadiya Umar Farouq

Sadiya Umar Farouq, Nigeria's Minister of
Humanitarian Affairs and Disaster Management,
has been involved in an altercation with a fellow
minister, a report by SaharaReporters has shown.

Farouq was on Wednesday involved in a heated
argument with her Communications and Digital
Economy colleague, Isa Ali Pantami, during the
weekly Federal Executive Council meeting at the
Presidential Villa, Abuja.

The disagreement between the two ministers,
according to a top source, has further confirmed
insinuations that there was division among top
aides of President Muhammadu Buhari.

SaharaReporters gathered that trouble started
after Pantami presented his ministry's planned
activities for approval, which included the mapping
and registration of Internally Displaced Persons
across the country.

Immediately after the Communication Minister’s
submission, a furious Farouq raised her hand to

her ministry.

It was learnt that the President was inclined to
agree with Sadia, considering the supervisory role
of Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs on IDPs but
Pantami strongly objected to the opposition of
Farouq, reminding her of the statutory power and
role of the National Identity Management
Commision in capturing and registering citizens,
IDP or not.

The Communication’s Minister broke the camels
back when he flaunted a letter written by his
ministry to Farouq’s office on October 15, 2020
with no response a month after.

It was at this point that the President went ahead
and approved the memo from Pantami, granting
the go ahead from NIMC to capture the IDPs.

SaharaReporters gathered that Farouq, who had
always used her closeness to President Buhari to
intimidate, manipulate and harass her fellow
ministers was humbled.

A source said the ninister openly wept immediately
after the meeting, accusing Pantami of disgracing
her before the President and other colleagues.

“Farouq is very afraid, she has this fear that the
capturing is capable of exposing the corruption
usually perpetrated in the name of IDPs,” the
source said.

There seems to be crack in the leadership
structure of the Indigenous People of Biafra
following the resignation of Kanu's deputy.

A leadership tussle within the ranks of the
Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has forced
Nnamdi Kanu's deputy to quit his position.

Uche Mefor, it was gathered resigned following
accusations of insubordination and disobedience.
Head of Directorate of State (DOS), China
Edoziem, in a statement on Friday accused Mefor
of “insubordination and disobedience” to
constituted authorities in the organisation
particularly to the leader of IPOB.

“Mefor was instructed by our leader to be
attending his unit meetings in London and pay his
monthly dues as everyone else does but he
disobeyed this dimple instruction from his leader
with the excuse that he as the deputy leader will
neither attend unit meetings or pay monthly dues
because he is entitled to same privilege accruing
to Mazi Nnamdi Kanu as leader of IPOB worldwide.

“The office of the deputy leader of the IPOB is
abolished with immediate effect and ceases to be
a part of the IPOB leadership structure.

“Henceforth nobody should be referred to as the
deputy leader of IPOB. Throughout the history of
freedom fighting there is nothing like deputy
leader.”
