Kashim Shettima and Atiku Abubakar
All Progressives Congress vice presidential candidate Kashim Shettima says northerners should ditch Atiku Abubakar for his opposition to the enactment of Sharia rule across the region.



Addressing party faithful at an APC local government conference, Mr Shettima urged the northern voters to reject Mr Abubakar at the February 25 polls because he fought against the Islamic legal system in the North.

“This person you call your own says you should not call him ‘Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, but rather Atiku Abubakar,” Mr Shettima told his audience in the Hausa language. “Your person says he is the only person that fights against Sharia in the north. Is that your person?”

The APC vice presidential candidate’s remarks is his latest attempt to whip up ethno-religious rhetoric against the Peoples Democratic Party presidential candidate.

Peoples Gazette had recently reported how Mr Shettima, at Emir Palace in Daura, Katsina, publicly challenged Mr Abubakar to come out and mention eight people he has mentored in the North; or the capital projects he executed in the North while he served as Nigeria’s vice president between 1999 to 2007.

Mr Shettima told his audience that Mr Abubakar’s presidency would not serve the North’s ethno-religious interests.

Liverpool are back in action after a nine-day break on Monday night, in what represents a huge Merseyside derby at Anfield.

For the Reds, it is simply a must-win game, but Everton‘s surprise 1-0 win over Arsenal in Dyche’s first match was a warning sign.

More dropped points for Jurgen Klopp‘s side will surely be fatal to any lingering hope of being in a top-four race, on what promises to be a tense evening.

President Muhammadu Buhari has said his administration has delivered on its campaign promises made to Nigerians in 2015.

Buhari who spoke yesterday during the 7th convocation ceremony of the Federal University, Oye-Ekiti, Ekiti State, said he had delivered in the areas of the economy, insecurity, and the fight against corruption.







At the events were the Chairman Nigerian Body of Benchers, Chief Wole Olanipekun (SAN); former Managing Director of First Bank, Bisi Onasanya; and former Super Eagles skipper, Segun Odegbami , were garlanded with honorary degrees for their contributions to national development.


He said that his campaign promises were based on enhancing the economy, improving security, and anti-corruption, and noted that he was fulfilled that huge successes were recorded in the three fundamental issues.

He said that though the country had not reached its eldorado, the present government has set Nigeria on irreversible paths of greatness through the implementation of masses-centric policies.


He said, “Let me remind us all that my campaign to become president in 2015 was built on the promise to improve security, strengthen the economy, and combat corruption. It is with immense gratitude to Almighty Allah that I make a bold to say that we have delivered on the three promises.



“At my inauguration, the country was practically under the siege of terrorism and other forms of insecurity. With every sense of responsibility, I state boldly that the war against terrorism has been fought and won as all the territories lost to these groups have been reclaimed. And terrorism in Nigeria today is breathing its last breath.

Atiku Abubakar has promised to release Nnamdi Kanu if he wins this month’s presidential election.

Kanu, the leader of the proscribed Indigenous Peoples of Biafra (IPOB), has been in detention since last year.

But the Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Senator Adolphus Wabara at the party’s presidential campaign rally in Umuahia, the capital of Abia State on Saturday the party’s presidential candidate promised to release the IPOB leader within the first one hundred days of his administration.

“Atiku has promised to release our son from prison in one hundred days of his administration. He is not afraid of anybody. He will do what he has promised,” Wabara stated.

The former senate president urged the electorate in Abia State to vote for the PDP presidential candidate on February 25.

Atiku had earlier arrived at the Umuahia Township Stadium for the event alongside his running mate, Governor Ifeanyi Okowa of Delta State; the party’s National Chairman, Iyorchia Ayu, Governors Udom Emmanuel of Akwa Ibom State and Aminu Tambuwal of Sokoto State.

Also on the entourage were a former vice president, Namadi Sambo, and members of the PDP Board of Trustees.


A former governor of Abia State, Theodore Orji; former PDP presidential aspirant, Sam Ohuabunwa, and the party’s stalwarts in Abia State were also on hand to receive the entourage.

Governor Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State was, however, absent from the campaign; his deputy, Ude Okochukwu was present.

PoliticsNAF Bombs ‘scores Of Boko Haram Fighters Converging’ In Borno by ogododo(op): 2:27pm On Feb 11, 2023
Scores of Boko Haram insurgents have been killed after two Super Tucano jets, operated by the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) under Operation Hadin Kai, bombed their camps in Borno state.

Zagazola Makama, a counter-insurgency publication focused on the Lake Chad region, said the military had intelligence suggesting that the terrorists were converging for a meeting in Gaizuwa on the fringes of the Sambisa Forest.

A source told the publication that pilots flying Super Tucano jets bombed the gathering of more than 100 terrorists with dozens of them on motorcycles.

The source said the bombardment of the Boko Haram fighters left many of them injured.

Some of the terrorists are believed to now be at large while several motorcycles and weapons belonging to them were destroyed.

The publication said some of the fighters who escaped the onslaught, and their families, have laid down their arms and surrendered to the troops.


Meanwhile, troops of 21 Armoured Brigade, in Bama, in collaboration with civilian joint task force (CJTF) officers, on Friday, destroyed four Boko Haram camps in Churchur, Mbaiwa, Kashimiri, China — and many other newly established villages — in Borno.

A military source told Zagazola that seven of the insurgents were killed during the operation.

The troops were said to have successfully burnt down the terrorists’ enclaves and rescued some women and children in the process.

What Fayemi Can Learn from Shettima
Hope Buhari Doesn’t Appear on New Naira Notes


By Farooq A. Kperogi

Twitter: @farooqkperogi

It was the exceptionally witty and satirical Senator Shehu Sani who first pointed out that the recoloring of the naira and the deathly, crippling scarcity that has come in its wake only a few days to the general election are akin to burning the entire forest while hunting down a rat. Many people missed the import of the senator’s metaphor.


So, let me bring it down from the stratosphere of abstract metaphors to a more placid, mundane truth. Buhari and his inner circle are not hunting down a rat; they after a bat— or, if you like, a BAT with capital letters—that lives in a massive, glitzy mansion on Bourdillon Road in Ikoyi, Lagos. They’re in mortal dread of the BAT because of its bullion vans and what it did with the vans during past elections and what it can do with them during this year’s general election.

To cut to the chase, Bola Ahmed Tinubu (BAT) is the single most important reason Buhari has chosen to recolor the naira as a pretext to consciously make it scarce and thereby prevent Tinubu from using it to win this month’s presidential election. That’s all there is to it.


As I pointed out in my January 28, 2023, column, Buhari himself betrayed this during a November 2022 interview in which he was asked about his regime’s naira recoloring policy. Without prompting, and in a bewildering departure from the issue he was talking about, Buhari said, “Nigerians should vote for whoever they like from whichever party. Nobody will be allowed to mobilize resources and thugs to intimidate people in any constituency.”

It was a significant Freudian slip that gave away the real motive force behind the disabling naira scarcity that has gripped the nation. Although Buhari now appears in campaign events along with Tinubu and even implores supporters to vote for Tinubu, it’s all theater. The battle line has already been drawn, and it seems, at least at this point, to be irreversible.

Buhari and his cabal did everything within their power to prevent Tinubu from winning the nomination of the APC. But they failed precisely because Tinubu used his seemingly inexhaustible wealth to buy his way to the nomination. Because they tried to stop his nomination and failed, they know he will retaliate against them if he becomes president.

Strewing deadly thorns in Tinubu’s path to the presidency is first of all a self-preservationist move by Buhari and his close associates before it is anything else. They have learned not to underestimate Tinubu. They now know that he is a shrewd, wily, calculating fox who has prepared for this moment years in advance and has enough money, tact, connections, and sophistication in wheeler-dealing to beat them again in the presidential election.

The only way to stop him is to starve him of cash to stop him from buying his way to the presidency. Now, poor and middle-class folks have to pay the price for this.

People who read me know that I resent Tinubu’s politics and don’t want him to be president because I find him too physically and mentally infirm to be president, but I find the Machiavellian designs against him by the Buhari regime not only unprecedentedly treacherous but also dangerous. There should be honor even among thieves.

Buhari became president because of the help he got from Tinubu and his associates. The votes of the Muslim North were never sufficient to push him to the finish line. Tinubu’s support for Buhari’s presidential aspiration was conditional on Buhari requiting the support after eight years. A promise is a promise. If you can’t keep the promise, don’t go out of your way to actively sabotage it.

I dislike Tinubu because he enabled Buhari not once but twice, but I dislike treachery more. I want Tinubu to lose the election because voters rejected him, not because Buhari and his narrow circle of influence-peddling associates sabotaged him. The idea that Tinubu can’t be stopped unless he is starved of cash to bribe voters unduly overestimates him and unfairly underestimates the intelligence of voters.

More than that, though, it’s not only futile, it’s also counter-productive. For instance, it has now emerged that Tinubu and APC governors have found a way around the naira blockade against them. They are now using their connections and “big man” privilege to mop up recolored naira notes from several banks and are saving them for Election Day. That was probably what CBN governor Godwin Emefiele meant when he talked about “sabotage” from banks.

The increasingly biting cash scarcity in the country will ensure that monetary incentives to voters would be even more valuable than they would have been in normal times because people are desperate and writhing in unspeakable existential torment.

What’s going on in Nigeria now reminds me of my experience with another wooden-headed Buhari naira redesign policy in 1984. I was a preteen then, but the terrifying agony of the time is still one of my most traumatic childhood memories. It was the first time in my life that I’d experienced hunger and deprivation.

The only currencies in circulation at the time were coins and the 50 kobo note. No one could sell or buy anything because there was no cash in circulation. My father had started building a four-bedroom house from the money he’d saved. But like most people in my hometown, he never got the money back he’d sent in exchange for the new naira notes. I built the house for him more than two decades later.

As Saturday Tribune editor Dr. Lasisi Olagunju’s Monday column brilliantly shows, several people died of hunger or committed suicide because of Buhari’s 1984 naira redesign policy in the service of depriving a few wealthy people of their so-called ill-gotten prosperity.

It’s happening again. Inflicting mass hurt on a large swath of people gives Buhari immense joy. So, naira redesign policies help Buhari to achieve two goals that are dear to his heart: seeing people suffer and depriving wealthy people of prosperity.

Unfortunately, although the masses of people are barely surviving because of the deliberately engineered scarcity of the naira, opposition to and support for the policy have become partisan political issues. APC and Tinubu supporters resent it because they think vote buying is their only path to victory, and PDP and Labor Party supporters defend it because they think it’s the only way to stop Tinubu in his tracks.

None of them cares for the real-time, heartrending humanitarian disaster that the policy is engendering in the polity. Politics has robbed people of their very humanity.

In my part of Nigeria, which shares a border with northeast Benin Republic, people go to Benin Republic to get the recolored naira notes. Even so, they are so scarce that people now transact business using CFA francs! Yet no one cares. And it’s getting worse every day.

Premium Times reported on Friday that “The Mint has run out of papers to print N500 and 1,000 notes,” and that the CBN has outsourced printing of naira notes to a German firm and De La Rue of the UK but that “they have been placed on a long waiting list so their orders cannot be met now.” So, Nigerians are in for even harder times in the coming days.

What will it profit Buhari and his cabal if they stop Tinubu from becoming president but burn the country down and kill its people in the process? Would such a pyrrhic victory be worth it?
