Politics / The Stupidity Of Nigeria Police by feedburner(m): 10:37am On Jul 02, 2015 |
intro: The freedom of worship is enshrined in the zoo (Nigeria) constitution and instead of Zoo police force to enforce and protect non-Moslems in Kano, they are doing the opposite by arresting them. Welcome to the damnation, the zoological republic indeed. The story in greater details Non-Muslims Lament As Kano Police Arrests Food Sellers To Enforce Ramadan Fast As Muslims all over the world observe the Holy Month of Ramadan, the Kano State Hisbah Board Wednesday intensified efforts at arresting food sellers who sell during the day as well as any Muslims who deliberately refuse to observe the Ramadan Fasting. The Commander of the Board, Shiehk Aminu Daurawa, said his men so far have arrested quite a number of food sellers and Muslim adherents young and old male and female from the beginning of the Holy Month till date. Daurawa, also said that the board will not tolerate the attitudes of some Muslims who are in the habit of eating, smoking or drinking in public during the month of fasting without any health issues or tangible reason why they must not fast as Sharia permits. Meanwhile, non-Muslims Kano residents and food sellers who spoke to our correspondent under the condition of anonymity expressed dismay over the development which they described as unfair as the action leaves many people who are not Muslims in a bad condition. They lamented that the development will force non-Muslims in the state to end up starving at work because they cannot get food to eat. According to the food sellers, “Getting food to eat is now a big problem, even when we manage to help those who are not Muslim; it is done in the secret as if we are selling evil things. “Must everybody fast because the Muslims are fasting? “Beside no body follows any one home forcing him or her to come and eat. Why must we be denied freedom to sell and why must we be involved?” It would be recalled that few days ago, some ladies who are indigenes of the state and Muslims were arrested smoking Shisha in public. This, the Commander of the Board said is a big slap for a state as Kano which is considered to be an Islamic state to be seeing such ugly things. Damming any complaints, Shiehk Aminu Daurawa, assured that efforts are been made to clear up bad joints in the State in the Month and that the Board is working day and night arresting youths who engages in one form social vices or the other. He further explained that food sellers must understand that Kano is a Muslim dominated state and that people of other faith living in the State must learn to respect the laws of the land by avoiding anything that will encourage people to break their fast before sun set or refusing to even fast at all. He said hawking food during the day no doubt encourage some lazy Muslims not to fast and end up patronising such Restaurants. source: newswirengr.com/2015/07/02/kano-police-arrests-food-sellers-to-enforce-ramadan-fast/?utm_source=&utm_medium=twitter |

Politics / Nigeria Has Expired (1914-2014). It Time To Let Biafra Go - UK by feedburner(m): 2:12am On Jul 02, 2015 |
"I have never considered myself a Nigerian, always a Biafran," David Chidiebere from Nigeria's Imo state told IBTimes UK during a discussion about why thousands of people in southern Nigeria are calling for independence. Chidiebere was born after Biafra was re-annexed to Nigeria in 1970 and learnt about the struggle of his ancestors from his father. Today, he believes Biafrans should separate from Nigeria. "They [government] want us to be one Nigeria, but why hasn't an Igbo or Biafran been the president of the country since the end of the war? We have the oil but they ares the one who are squandering the money." Biafra history The Eastern Region, a former federal division of Nigeria with capital Enugu, became a secessionist state called Republic of Biafra after gaining independence from Nigeria in 1967. It was re-annexed in 1970 following the Nigerian-Biafran war that claimed one million lives. After the end of the British rule in 1960, Nigeria was comprised of territories that were not part of the nation before the colonisation, resulting in escalating tensions among the communities. People in the Eastern Region, mainly from the Igbo community, wanted to secede due to ethnic, religious and economic differences with other communities in Nigeria. The Eastern Region gained independence following two coup d'etats in 1966 and 1967. The fact that Nigeria's oil was located in the south of the country played a major role in the eruption of the war, during which medicines and food shortage in Biafra led to the death of thousands of people. Biafra has been commonly divided into four main "tribes": the Ibos, the Ibibio-Efiks, the Ijaws and the Ogojas. The modern-day states that made up Biafra from the eastern region and midwest are: Abia, Anambra, Akwa Ibom, Bayelsa, Enugu, Ebonyi, ,Imo, Delta, Rivers and Cross River and Edo. Chidiebere explained that the fight for an independent Biafra is not just about natural resources. "We Biafrans don't want to be in the same country with people we don't share the same mentality, religion, culture, language, accent or way of life with," he said. "We are being marginalised everywhere, we are the Israelites of Africa." London-based Yahgozie Emmanuel, member of Ekwenche research institute and editor of Biafra24 told IBTimes UK that following the re-annexation, Biafran communities were separated. "Biafra was known as a provincial system which didn't recognise any of the states created by Nigeria and its agents," he said. "In 1970 Nigeria divided the people to decentralised the unity of Biafrans. We believe that the 36 States and 774 Local Government structure imposed via decrees by officers from the occupational government of Nigeria render the people of Biafra an insignificant minority." Emmanuel referred to a so-called "amalgamation contract" aimed at integrating people from the north and the south within 100 years since it was issued. The contract, now at the National Archive of London, was created in 1914 by the then governor general of Nigeria Frederick John Dealtry Lugard. The document, opposed by the political class and the media in Lagos, expired in 2014. "This means that the component parts of what was Nigeria can now go their ways," Emmanuel said and added that Biafrans feel threatened by terror group Boko Haram and what they see as the attempted 'Islamification' of southern Nigeria by the current government. "We Biafrans continue to strive for survival under harsh condition, forced exiles. Gatherings of Biafrans and places of Christian worship in the northern part of the country are regular targets of Islamic terror, spearheaded today by Boko Haram. "The several mentions of sharia in the constitution in the face of Section 10 of the same document that prohibits adoption of state religion, has left a leeway for several states in the far north to impose sharia, which in turn activated Boko Haram, which owes it an obligation to their faith to kill the 'infidel', a category to which we the Biafrans fall, in their warped estimation." read more below... source: www.ibtimes.co.uk/nigerias-call-second-biafra-we-are-israelites-africa-1508606?utm_source=&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=ibtimesuk 14 Likes |
Education / What You Don't Know About PTDF by feedburner(m): 1:51am On Jul 02, 2015 |
My fellow compatriots and scholars, I write with a deep sense of pains and disappointment over the inability of PTDF to pay the beneficiaries of 2011/2012 Local Scholarship Scheme their scholarship benefits. Despite all the the proceedings gotten from oil revenue to fund this great initiative, it a big failure on the part of the board to owe beneficiaries up to this very moment. we have severally contacted the board and the response has always been 'don't worry, we will pay you people soon. ptdf doesn't embezzle people's money'. I am really fed up with them and I seek for solutions from good people of nairaland on what to do about this situation. thank you |
