May his soul rest in peace. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Fasholas.

May his soul rest in peace.

omanzo02: They are planning how Al Mustapha can apply for amnesty to collect some oil money.

What amnesty are you talking about? Al-mustapha is not an ex-con so he does not need any amnesty.

I love this family of God
So closely knitted into one
They have taken me into their arms and I am so glad to be a part of this great family.

I love NCCF. I served as the Zonal TOS during my service year. What an experience! My PPA provided me with a decent accommodation, but I had to move into the family house ones I was selected as an exco.

Afam4eva: The fact that you has three universities in the west as at time does not mean the SW liked education more than other regions. It was just a case of circumstance that led to the citing of these schools in those locations. University of Ibadan for instance was established by the British and it was cited in Ibadan. it could have been cited anywhere else. The establishment of another Federal university, Unilag is as a result of the location. A city like Lagos cannot be left without a federal university because it's a melting point of Nigerians from every nook and cranny. So, that leaved University of Ife(OAU) as the true university of the SW just like UNN is to the east and ABU is to the North.

Which University did you attend?

RIP to the dead.

New question:
which gileadite sacrificed his virgin daughter

Jephthah. Judges 11:31-39

TWENTY –TWO-YEAR-Old Nigerian, from Yobe State, Adamu Abdullahi, has made history by graduating as Best Student from the Department of Electrical Electronics Engineering , Gaziantep University Turkey, at the weekend.

He also emerged as the Second Best Braduating student from the Faculty of Engineering.

By this feat, Adamu, according to a release from the university authorities, becomes the first Nigerian to graduate from the school and the first African to receive such award from the university.

Adamu studied at the university under the Yobe State Government Scholarship programme, established in 2008 by the late Governor Mamman Bello Alis administration and later continued by Governor Ibrahim Geidam’s administration.

He was among over 4,000 students from different faculties of Gaziantep University, who were awarded degrees at the graduation ceremony.

Governor of Gaziantep Provision of Turkey, Erdal Ata, who spoke on the importance of education and the role of the youths in the development of the country, said: “This nation is entrusted to youths, and its future totally lies on their shoulders. If we want to make this country successfully, cherish forever as well as transform it to a leading nation of higher modern civilization, we must work hard towards education as a state and as a nation “

The University Rector, Prof. Yavuz Co?kun, addressing the parents of the graduands, said: “God blessed you with babies whom you took on to your laps, you raised them and brought them to us as teenagers it was our responsibilities to train and educate them. Now, we release them into life as well-talented and highly- educated degree holders and we have done our best not only in transforming them into graduates but also transforming them into people of high experience, who can firmly withstand the challenge of life and become successful in their fields.”

According to the statement made available to The Guardian: “ After the national anthem, the best students in their faculties were then publically awarded their degrees by Governor Erdal Ata, Rector Yavuz Co?kun and other respected leaders across the nation.

“The ceremony was colorful and full of happiness of both the students and their families, the Second Best Student of the Engineering Faculty named Adamu Abdullah, expressed his happiness by the holding flag of his country (Nigeria). “

In a statement, Yobe State Students’ Association, Turkey, congratulated Adamu for his accomplishment.

The Group said in a statement sent to The Guardian: “Such honour you brought is not only to our association (Yobe State Students’ Association Turkey) or Yobe State, but is also to Nigeria as a whole.”

Why attack the messenger? What has he said that is not true?

At least 28 students and one teacher killed in attack by gunmen on boarding school in country's northeast.At least 28 students and one teacher have been killed in an attack by gunmen on a boarding school in Nigeria's northeast.Survivors being treated for burn and gunshots wounds said some students were burned alive in the attack on the Government Secondary School in Mamudo town in Yobe state early on Saturday.As he wept over the bodies of his two boys, farmer Malam Abdullahi swore he would withdraw three remaining sons from a nearby school. He complained there was no protection for students despite the deployment of thousands of troops since the government declared a state of emergency mid-May in three northeastern states.Yvonne Ndege, our correspondent in Abuja, said the attack had the markings of the Boko Haram group who are known for attacking schools and are against western education. "People are going to be questioning how effective the military operation against the Boko Haram group has been."It is worth noting that military has been suggesting all along that they are winning the war. But one of the problems for journalists is that is hard to get information from the area, because mobile and satellite phones have been blocked so it is almost impossible to cross-check what the miltary is saying with civilian accounts," our correspondent said.Refugee crisis On June 18,  the UN refugee agency reported that thousands of people were fleeing to Chad, Niger and Cameroon as the crisis in northern Nigeria deepened.UNHCR officers said that up to 3,000 refugees had arrived in Cameroon amid reports of at least 6,000 people escaping to Niger over the month as the confrontation between the Nigerian army and the Boko Haram group intensified in the country's northeast. Dozens of schools have been torched and unknown scores of students killed among more than 1,600 victims slain by armed groups since 2010.Nigeria declared a state of emergency in three flashpoint states of Adamawa, Borno and Yobe in mid-May as it launched a major offensive to end the insurgency.

Vernor: Also a great looter check his house in Lagos mamman Kotangora house and think of how many year you will work to buy to buid that house, we need to stop praising theives including OBJ.

Haba! Always post what you are sure of. Mamman Kontagora House belongs to FMBN. The building was completed in 1991 when he was the Minister of Works. The building was just named after him. Ministry of Works and Housing is the supervising ministry for FMBN. If you are not sure of an information, please don't post.

It's biblical to discipline a child.
Proverbs 13:24 says "He who keeps back his rod is unkind to his son: the loving father gives punishment with care". If people say they are against it then they are against the Bible as well, which is the word of God. While growing up in the North, our mum and dad do not hesitate to discipline us when we do things we have been warned not to do. That of course has molded us into better people today. The most important thing is you should discipline that child in righteousness.

confusion247: You really tried to put this down, but how come the whole northerners are in support of boko haram and against Jonathan? I still remember that Jega was stoned in adamawa state for declaring Jonathan as the winner of the presidential election, only that proves some of your write up here wrong. How many northern Christians have condemned the unnecessary killing of the igbos in the north which have lasted for over 40 years?

And how many northern Christians have been killed? Don't just come here and talk rubbish. More Northern Chrisians have died than southerners. So don't add salt to our injury by telling us rubbish. Was it the Christians that went and fought when Jonathan won? Only southerners that have stayed in Northern Nigeria understand the plight of Northern Christians.

RE-INTRODUCING NORTHERN NIGERIA: NOT AS YOU KNOW IT

I am writing this article mainly for the benefit of Southern Nigerians who have never been to the North, and mostly have a warped and inaccurate view of the North. I have been driven to write this out of my many personal experiences, and those of friends and family, as has been shared with me. This is mainly an educative piece about what Northern Nigeria is in reality; a complete, holistic picture of this region.To make this piece a simple read and easy-to-follow, I am going to write it around 5 common perceptions about the North anddebunk them:

Religious Perception: The general belief held by most Southerners about the North is that the region is not just mainly Muslim, but wholly Muslim. Whenever I meet someone from the South and introduce myself, I am correctly placed as a Christian. But once I am asked my state and I say Borno State, the next question becomes, ‘Are you a Muslim?’ This is despite my name being a very common Biblical name, Mark, which is the second Gospel. Matter of fact, I have been asked that question while attending a church programme, with a Bible conspicuously held in my hands. You could imagine my surprise at that question. This has also been the experience of a lot of friends with common names such as ‘Emmanuel’, ‘Daniel’, etc.To start with, out of the 19 Northern states, at least 5 have a majority Christian population: Plateau, Adamawa, Nassarawa, Taraba and Benue. At least 6 more have at least 40% Christian population. These states include Niger, Gombe, Kaduna, Kogi, Kwara and either Borno or Bauchi. That then leaves only Kano, Kebbi, Katsina, Jigawa, Sokoto, Yobe and Zamfara as having Muslim populations above 60%. How then are we all seen as Muslims?This misconception could be excused when the person has an Arabic name, as there are many Northern Christians who bear names such as Jamila, Habiba, Halima, Sadiq, and Yunusa and so on. But when the person has an obvious Christian name and is even attends church services, you really begin to wonder.

Ethnic Perception: Another common perception of the North is that we are all Hausa. My usual response to this is to borrow the logical argument of Simon Kolawole, the Editor-in-Chief of THISDay Newspapers. In an article in which he attempted to educate his largely Southern readership base about the North, he went thus:“If out of the estimated 250 tribes in Nigeria, we can say that the South-West is mainly Yoruba with a few other tribes around Badagry area, the South-East wholly Igbo and the South-South being most diverse in the South with about 40 tribes, that still leaves the remaining 200 tribes in the North.”How then are we reduced to one single ethnic group, Hausa? It is only the North-West that is close to being homogenous, mainly Hausa and Fulani, but with still some minority tribes in the Zuru area of Kebbi State and the multi-diverse Southern Kaduna. The North-East and North-Central is filled with tribes, many of whom I have never even heard of. For example, Adamawa State is so diverse that the largest ethnic group, the Fulani, is just 3% of the entire population. In my home state of Borno, there is a local government so diverse that from one village to another, you are likely to meet an entirely different ethnic group. The number of tribes there are so many that we just address the people as ‘Gwoza people’, after the name of the local government.Even though we all speak Hausa as a lingua franca in order to communicate amongst ourselves as trading partners over the centuries, that doesn’t make us Hausa people as much as communicating English doesn’t make you and I English people. As a matter of fact, in the North-East, Hausa people are a minority and virtually non-existent in the North-Central region.

Intellectual Beliefs: Now, this is one belief that whenever I am confronted with, it takes me a great deal of self-control not to flip out and lose my temper. Times without number, when I tell people I am from Borno State, I am asked how come I speak such good English. What the hell? What am I supposed to speak? Arabic? The general expectation is that someone from the North is not supposed to be this learned, this well-spoken and articulate in English, this knowledgeable. I remember when a friend asked me if my mother went to school, and the surprised look on his face when I told him that my mum earned her masters’ degree over 20 years ago. There was also a time when my dad met someone at the Lagos International Airport and they got talking. When my dad told him his profession, the man, in a fit of surprise, exclaimed, ‘I didn’t know that there were professors in the North’.I admit the fact that the North lags behind the South educationally, especially the North-West and the North-East. But this is not due to our inability to comprehend what we are being taught, but rather due to the incompetence of leadership in the region to give education its premium importance as a form of human development. We, like every other human being on the face of this earth, can excel when given the opportunity.Talent and intellect abounds everywhere. Opportunity, however, does not. I personally know of many Northerners who have excelled nationally and internationally. Daily, the story of young men like Ahmed Mukoshy, who is born, bred and schooled in Sokoto, and yet, rose above his environment to become one of the emerging forces in IT in this country in his early 20s inspires me. This is just one example among many that I could cite but for the lack of space.I find it outright disgusting whenever people claim that if not for federal character and ‘zoning’, no Northerner would be able to compete in this country. Last week, I was shocked when a friend said only 10% of Northerners in the Federal Civil Service deserved their places on merit, and went on to add that if he had not known me personally and I were to get a job with the Federal Government, he would believe that I did not earn it on merit. The most ridiculous one I encountered was when earlier this year, former Minister of Finance, Dr Mansur Mukhtar was appointed a World Bank director. Most of the commentators on the 234Next article announcing this achievement for this Nigerian and Nigeria made the ludicrous assertion that the appointment was done to please the North, that Dr Mukhtar did not merit it. Little did they know that Dr Mukhtar had worked at the World Bank and the African Development Bank, prior to his heading Nigeria’s Budget Office on the invitation of the then and present Minister of Finance, Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala and former World Bank Managing Director, who also recommended him for the post of Finance Minister when she rejected former President Umaru Yar’adua’s invitation to join his government. What is even worse is that they did not care to know: their minds were already made up and could not be confused with the facts.

Geo-Political Beliefs: Another common belief among Southerners and most especially spread by Southern newspapers is that the entire 19 Northern states act and think as one when it comes to issues of Northern politics. This is one of the biggest untruths about the North. Whenever Northern Nigeria is mentioned, the people of Benue, Kogi and Kwara states do not feel it refers to them. Geographically, they are part of the North; politically, however, they and the entire Middle-Belt act independently. This can be clearly in the last elections where President Goodluck Jonathan won in 7 Northern states, even against his strongest opponent, General Muhammadu Buhari, who is a Northerner. This was something I am sure a lot of people in the South, save for the political savvy, did not see coming.One common sight of this perception being entrenched by newspapers is when politicians of Northern extraction speak on national issues. I have innumerably seen a washed-out Northern politician, without any influence or popularity speak regarding an issue, and the next day, newspapers carry bold headlines saying, ‘North rejects this’ or ‘North plans to do that’, quoting the same washed-out politician as speaking for the entire North. I have rarely seen a Bola Tinubu speaking and being quoted as the mouthpiece of the entire Yoruba ethnic group, or a Chief Edwin Clark for the Ijaw people. Methinks this is a way of selling newspapers by capitalizing on the image of the North as one single, political force which moves in a particular direction all-togetherCultural/Social/Economic Belief: Admittedly, as people of the same region, we share a lot in common culturally and socially in the general terms: our mannerisms, modes of dressing, traditional titles (apart from paramount rulers with the exception of emirates), etc. Despite that, the Jukun in Taraba and the Kataf in Kaduna are very different in the specifics, as even the Bura and Marghi people of Borno/Adamawa States. To pick the attitude of one ethnic group in the North and attach it to all the others, is to put it mildly, a very short-sighted way of knowing and understanding the people of Northern Nigeria.

Another belief in the South is that the entire North is but an empty land mass with nothing but trees. I remember the controversy of the 2006 census when Kano State was said to have a slightly higher population than Lagos State. Many of my Southern friends called it ‘an impossibility’. In the words of one of them, ‘Lagos is so populated that when you throw grains of rice into the air, they wouldn’t land on the ground, but on people’. However, they all forgot to factor in land mass, because Lagos State is a much smaller state than Kano State, and hence has the highest population density in Nigeria, hence making it look as though it was way more populated.There are cities in the North that have been thriving economically, such as Kano and Kaduna. As a matter of fact, Kaduna State was adjudged by the World Bank in the year 2009 as the best place to do business.Lastly, the most retrogressive belief about the North in the South is that the entire North is a hotbed for violence. As much as we have had more than our fair share of ethno-religious violence, there are many states that have never experienced one, including states such as Zamfara, and others as Nassarawa and Benue.I have not written this as a criticism of the people of Southern Nigeria, but rather, in the hope that this will be an enlightenment of the South about the North. It amazes me when I see that despite the fact that we have been a country for almost a century, yet, a lot of people down South know little or nothing about their fellow Nigerians in the North, but know about Europe and America.I have also realized that we as Northerners have allowed others to say our story for ourselves, hence have given it distortions, deletion and generalizations. What has happened over time is what the writer Chimamanda Adichie, in her TED talk in March 2009, at Oxford, England, describes as ‘the danger of the single story’, where a single story of the North as a region of poor, illiterate, lazy, Hausa Muslims who do nothing but connive to lord over this country politically and kill Southerners’ has been repeated so much that it is seen as the truth. This is the kind of stuff that creates stereotyping, which in her words, ‘not that it is untrue, but that it is incomplete’.This is one reason I still see the significance of our NYSC scheme, choked with problems as it may be. We need to know each other more. Let us override this stereotypical mind-set and seek to learn about each other with open minds and seek the complete story that gives a holistic picture of our country.

homesteady: if i was in d position of d governor...i'll make a female my deputy so that kaduna state 'll be d 1st Northern state to have a Female deputy governor....
Den if he dies,she'll take over....therefore making her d 1st female governor in Northern states..
Who agrees with me?

Plateau State had female deputy governot in Mrs. Pauline Tallen. She was deputy governor from 2007-2011.

He said he became Access MD in 2002 only in acting capacity and substantive MD 2 years later. So I guess the guy has 2 more years.

Two alleged members of the Al-Qaeda network, Babafemi Lawal and Luqman Babatunde, natives of Ogun and Lagos states, respectively, were on Thursday arraigned before an Abuja Federal High Court by the Federal Government.

Lawal and Babatunde allegedly received the sum of N1m from the terrorist organisation, Al-Qaeda in Arabian Peninsula also known as AQAP in Yemen, to fund the recruitment and transportation of prospective Nigerian members of the terrorist group to Yemen.

The alleged action constituted an offence contrary to Section 13(a) of Terrorism (Prevention) Act 2011 and punishable under paragraph (c) of the same section of the Act.

Also, their alleged attendance of a meeting of the terrorist network, was an offence under Section 3 (c) of the Terrorism (Prevention) Act 2011.

The accused persons pleaded not guilty to the six-count charge brought against them by the Attorney General of the Federation.

The presiding judge, Justice Gladys Olotu, ordered that the accused persons be remanded in prison custody.

Parts of the charges against them read, “That you Olaniyi Babafemi Lawal, 31, of Ijebu Ode, Ogun State on or about May 2011 at Abuja, willfully received monies in Saudi Riyals and the United State of American Dollars equivalent to N1,000,000.00 from a terrorist organisation known as Al-Qaeda in Arabian Peninsula, also known as AQAP in Yemen, with intent that the said money shall be used to recruit and transport prospective members of the terrorist group to Yemen.

Death in the pool

26/04/2012 13:36:00 By Mohammed Alabi

Lawi Chibege Danjuma, a Law graduate of the Ahmadu Bello University (ABU), Zaria, was the overall best student at the Law School. He died two months after he was called to the Bar. MOHAMMED ALABI (NYSC member, Lagos, and colleague at the Nigerian Law School, Enugu) remembers their days in Enugu.

 

The time you won your town the race;

We cheered you through the market-place

Man and boy stood cheering by,

And home we brought you shoulder-high

 

Today, the road all runner come,

Shoulder-high we bring you home,

And set you at your threshold

 

Smart lad, the slip betimes away

From fields where glory does not stay

And early though the laurel grow

It withers quicker than the rose.

Alfred Edward Housman in To an Athlete Dying Young wrote the above lines, decades ago. The everlasting message became clearer when Lawi Chibege Danjuma, a brilliant budding lawyer and the Overall Best Student at the February 14 call-to-bar of the Nigerian Law School, died in Abuja less than two weeks ago. 

Lawi drowned at a pool where he had gone, with friends, to get some respite, perhaps, from the rigours of office work.

When Lawi was named the Overall Best Graduating student in 2009 by the Faculty of Law, the Ahmadu Bello University (ABU), Zaria, little did his peers know that he was going to replicate the same feat (if not higher) at the Nigerian Law School. True to type, Lawi showed the stuff he was made of at the Enugu Campus. He was vibrant in class, classy in outfit, savvy in outlook and exceptionally nice in his relationship with mates. 

Despite the rigours of academics at the Law School, Lawi had time for students’ politics. He was the General Secretary of the Students Representative Council. He participated actively in the Law Clinic Department, rendering legal services free  to the residents of Agbani community and environs and went ahead to become the Judge in a Moot Court competition. 

Those were however a fraction of his versatility at the Law School. The height was when he became the cynosure of all eyes at the Call-to-Bar. He stole the show when he not only bagged the Overall Best Student title but also carted away seven of the 10 awards for outstanding graduates. Lawi got standing ovations, including a special commentary by the Chief Justice of the Federation and the compeer. 

Notably, the ABU graduate received the Second Best Student in Civil Law award; the Third Best Student in Civil and Criminal Litigation award; the Best Male student of the Year award; three awards for Best Overall Student of the Year from three donors and the star prize from the Council of Legal Education.

Unfortunately, however, like Thomas Gray’s scholars now buried beneath the earth surface, all that seem to be history today as the young lawyer from Adamawa State caved in to death on April 13 in Abuja, in a freak accident at the pool. Lawi has since been buried in his home town, Guyuk Local Government Area of Adamawa State. 

In a chat with some of his ABU and Law School mates, CAMPUSLIFE gathered that it has been a week of mourning for the family and friends. 

To one of his Law School colleagues, who simply identified himself as Ola, and under whose SRC Presidency Lawi served, the news of his friend’s death came as a shock. He asserted that he had spoken with Lawi shortly before he left for the pool so he couldn’t easily come to terms with the news. Ola was his closest ally then at the Law School. Not only were they in the same hostel, both worked closely for the welfare of students in the SRC. 

“It’s devastating. It’s just too devastating to come to terms with!” was his expression when CAMPUSLIFE called him on the phone. 

For Aboyade Usman, his colleague at the ABU, Lawi’s demise is a big blow not only to the family and the university, but also to the legal profession and the country. He recalled that when Lawi was “denied” a First Class at the ABU due to what he tagged as an “unfair, unwritten policy of the faculty not to award the prestigious honours to anyone, no matter how deserving”, everybody grumbled. 

“We believed an exception should have been created for Danjuma-the-Great (as he was fondly called back in school). I am in tears… it is too shocking to believe that Danjuma Lawi is gone. My heart goes out to the family”. 

On his Facebook page, Muhammad-Kabir Abdullah, another ABU classmate wrote: “Adieu brother. The Faculty of Law, ABU, Zaria, will never forget you”.

Lawi’s Facebook wall has been flooded with tributes. Sounding paradoxical, Serena Abu posted: “Even death understood your greatness, wanted an association for himself and claimed you for himself, albeit selfishly…. You will always be remembered among the few great men that ever lived because your reputation supersedes you. You won’t be forgotten because everywhere you went, you left an indelible footprint. R.I.P, you truly deserve it”.

When CAMPUSLIFE visited the Danjumas at their Abuja home, the huge feeling of loss was palpable  and no one was ready to make a comment. Lawi’s father, who is also the Acting Chief Judge of Adamawa State, was not on hand for comments. 

Until his death, Lawi was a youth corps member serving his primary assignment with G-K Gadzama Law firm in Abuja.

Haba! This couldn't be true. 23 billion USD plus 80 billion USD equals 103 billion USD. I am not sure Nigeria has earn that kind of money in the last 2 years even from the sale of oil. If wikileaks can prove it, then fine! But 103 billion USD is not child's play.

NDIC has sine given appointment letters for the interview conducted in February/March. The recent interview of 5-8 August was for the recent recrutment test in June.

Finally, FIRS has called!

@Uwani, hope u r doing gr8t. Please sms me on 08036932666 so dat I can call u bk. Need some info on this recruitment exercise.

@Uwani, please do you have any info on firs? Been trying to reach a friend who works in HR unit but his number is not going tru. There were suppose to call last week.

@Logba, FIRS has concluded the recruitment process for all cadre of staff. The list with FCC is a mere formality, all those whose names are on the list would get the job. Though there waz a lot of pressure on the Executive Chairman to favour some candidate, they were able to at least follow merit.

Firs has nt given out appointment letter. However, they concluded credentials screening/interview. The Board sat last week and the final list should be in fcc now. I learnt that nt many people passed the last test hence there would still be vaccancies.

@Perafirst
By pay evidence, they want an evidence of you collecting salary in the last three months. A three months pay slip would suffice.

Hello House,

As I informed the house earlier when I initiated this thread, FIRS has started calling those that applied for Officer grade for Screening. I got a text from them yesterday. venue is The Unity Bank House, 14, Sokode Crescent , Opposite the Revenue House, Wuse Zone 5, Abuja . The date is 09/01/10. But I believed other people would have different date and time for their screening. Wish all Nairalanders the best.

@Logba

It is true that successful candidates from the second stage are being called for interview. However it is done in stages based on the position you applied for. I was reliably informed me that they have concluded interview for Directors and they are now inviting the next level for interview. I hope you find the information useful.
