NwaNimo1: However, nothing is known of the three teachers earlier abducted alongside the pupils....
Three primary school pupils abducted a few hours ago when bandits stormed the UBE primary school at Rama in Birnin Gwari Local Government Area of Kaduna State have escaped.
Speaking with one of the teachers of the school, Daily Trust gathered that three pupils of primary 3 had earlier been abducted but had wriggled free when the bandits attempted to rustle some cows and motorcycles at a nearby community.
Naomi Francis, a teacher in the school, who escaped abduction, confirmed to Daily Trust that the three pupils have regained their freedom but said they had been beaten by the bandits.
However, nothing is known of the three teachers earlier abducted alongside the pupils.
Narrating how the bandits penetrated the school, she said: “They came in after the morning assembly.
“We had all gone into the classrooms when six of the bandits came on motorcycles while others surrounded the school.
“I had stepped out from my class when I noticed students of primary 5 and 6 running out.
“I immediately alerted my students to run and they did.”
Also speaking, a resident, Mai Saje Rama, confirmed that the pupils had returned to the community but said the whereabouts of the teachers was uncertain.
“The vigilante that went after them came back without success, they could not locate the bandits,” he said.
The Councilor of Rama, Aliyu Isa, had told Daily Trust earlier that no pupil was abducted.
He claimed the bandits attacked a nearby village and abducted two persons and also stole cows.
Kaduna State Commissioner of Internal Security and Home Affairs, Samuel Aruwan, did not respond to calls and a text message sent to his phone.
Daily Trust reports that the abduction happened 24 hours after security agents thwarted an attempted abduction of 307 students of Government Science Secondary School in Ikara Local Government Area of the state and another attack at the Federal Airport Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) quarters in Igabi LGA of the state.
On Thursday night, bandits had invaded the Federal College of Forestry Mechanisation, Afaka, in Igabi LGA and abducted 39 students comprising 23 females and 16 males.
Security agents had earlier rescued 180 of the students but the gunmen who made away with 39 students are now demanding a ransom of N500 million.
But this is more than failure to y'all, The baale you had been in 1893 and till dates is still Baale. Are you not suppose to have pass Baale stool?
themomentng: The Lagos State Government has affirmed the selection of Chief Anthony Folami for the stool of Baale of Kirikiri, in the Oriade Local Council Development Area, (LCDA).
The government said its decision followed “painstaking deliberation and examination of the Obas and Chiefs Law, and Customary Law of the community, (Kirikiri).
The Lagos State government therefore directed the Executive Chairman of Oriade LCDA, Honourable (Mrs) Ramotalai A.O Hassan, to implement the decision and recognise Chief Anthony Babatunde Folami as the Baale.
It also said a full-fledged committee set up on the matter identified two ruling houses as those eligible to produce a candidate for the stool. These are the Agunbiade, and Folami ruling houses.
Prior, the two ruling houses had petitioned the government against a certain Babalola Shabi. The petitioners, through their lawyers Taiwo Lakanu &co, affirmed they were the legitimate royal families and traced their ancestry to chief Tumbulu who became the first Baale of Kirikiri Town in 1893.
The ruling houses, more so, accused Shabi of usurping the stool, despite he not being a royal. Shabi, as stated, “wandered into Ebute (waterside) area of Kirikiri Town to make a living by assisting sand dredgers and sand buyers to load sand into tippers”.
During this time, Shabi met Gilbert Cardoso, who was from one of the land-owning families in Kirikiri. Cardoso reportedly took him in “and accommodated as an errand boy”. During his lifetime, Cardoso was said to have leased swathes of land to certain Chiefs Mosheshe and Akhere. The petitioners said upon Cardoso’s mysterious death, Shabi made himself the prime agent of the family land. He was also said to have set members of the Mosheshe family against themselves and willy-nilly made himself their land agent.
The Cardoso family eventually removed Shabi as their land agent, but he continued to function as same.
He later manipulated the system through the assistance of some local government officials and pronounced himself as the baale.
This latest development was met with wide jubilation by the inhabitants of kikikiri who said they were tired of his constant intimidation, oppression and harassments in the community.
A prominent member of the community told us that ” this man is from ijebu ode and never a prince, not from any of the ruling houses and cannot lay claims to the stool of the royal family. We are glad the rule of law has finally prevailed. We can now sleep with our eyes closed in Kirikiri.
We are grateful to the government and all the people involved in making sure that the truth prevailed at last.
Suddenly, the bandits don't understand English again. Nigeria is a jokers country, anyway they understand English when when their victims speaks requesting for ransom
Untill you see things like these as government essential that must be provided for the betterment of the citizens, they will always think they are doing favour to the masses. Learn to hold them accountable of whatever they do.
You are monumental failure living on pass glory,The young man did his best but what has become of the country Nigeria now. A country with the highest number of beggars on the street and social media, country that cannot self manage her resources. Nigeria is definitely cursed with bad leaders whose mission in governance is stealing and looting with no consideration for the citizens. People like you are paid to do dirty job of praising the leaders for peanut. [0pquote author=Oshigun post=99814682]
Shame the view you share is the only one you have of this wonderful video.
The Young Nigerian lad did all Africans proud with his independent-minded, racially aware, secure and strong opinions whereas the rest were just divisive, confused, racist and even self-loathing indoctrinated youngsters beholden to the very imperialistic white world at the time.
Instead of seeing that you find a way to insult Nigeria in a situation where the Nigerian spirit in that boy shone brightly to universal commendation from all black people worldwide.

Dont listen bruh, she is your mother you have to treat her with respect. If you love your mother honour her with your money and other substance by yourself [b][/b]without passing through your wife. To me , what i give my mother is nobody's business considering all her labour over me. All she is trying to do is know what you give your mother to compare with what you give her family. If your mother is fetish with money will she solve that problem?
Chuxx84: Good evening nairalanders. Please I need advice/opinions on this issue at hand.
I have been taking care of my mother since before I got married, I have other brothers older and younger but they are not financially buoyant. (So they claimed) I did not mind this but kept on caring for her ( house rent, feeding, other bills).
Although it's a burden to me, but she is my mother. Now my wife suggest that any money I want to give to her should pass through her (I will send to my wife then she sends to my mother) or she does the sending and I later pay her back.
Her claim is my mother is fetish with my money. I'm confused can this be true? Sometimes my mother will make simple money request my wife would say I should ignore her. She says she is taking me for a fool. I am beginning to get tired of this whole thing. Please help with advice or opinions.
