The Plateau State Governor, Simon Bako Lalong, says, he won’t relent on his efforts until the last Almajiri is relocated to their state of origin to help fight the spread of covid-19 in the state.

Out of this number, 243 were sent home to their States of Bauchi, Kano and Kaduna, while 36 were sent to their Local Governments of Wase and Kanam.

Lalong while addressing the state noted that his government was fully aware of the hardship the citizens in the state are facing due to covid-19 period, including those holding public offices were exempted from the challenges, calling on all and sundry to exercise patience and resilience as all hands hands must put on deck to defeat the pandemic.

You people brought virus to this country unknowingly, and started causing problem to Almajiris.

Why can't u make shelter and provide food for them during the lock down?

Seems Almajiris are now the next super-spreaders of this COVID19 pandemic.Guess they are still the proud culture of the core north according to that Adamu Garba fella from Kano?

Why not gather the children in a place and conduct tests for them? Then, do the needful if found postive. And also cater for those that are negetive till the pandemic is over. We are one Nigeria and the Almajiries are Nigerian Children.

But one mofo from Zamfara was quoting the constitution for Osun 2 days ago .

And Why are the Northerners opening local transfer window on top Almajiri ??
I thought one Adamumu Garba said Almajiri was Hausa/Fulani heritage

Stupid.d people, don't relent now dey there.

Story

Why cause grief for this innocent minors Did they bring themselves into this world Why make it seem they are the originators of COVID19 Why are they treated without concideration of any atom of human rights.

MY LAWYERS WILL BE GETTING THE BRIEF TO PROCEED ON THE STOPPAGE OF THIS HUMAN RIGHT ABUSES OF THIS INNOCENT HELPLESS CHILDREN BY GOVERNMENTS.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!

That good decision for now

Finally, this my governor is beginning to have sense

Misplaced Priorities if you ask me, Not a bad move but massive testing and identification of carriers is key to combating the disease. Anything else is just another political smokescreen

Lol....if a south south governor say Dis now, them will start insult claiming human right...now its coming from the north.....


Who are almajiri and where are they from sef

about damn time

Truth is always bitter and has no friend.
Sanusi warned you people about the danger of this thoughtless practice that you called your Northern pride but rather than appreciate him you insulted him and dethroned him, by now he would be laughing at your folly

Almajiris aren't Nigerian children, they have states of origin and parents. No one is ready to suffer for the stupidity of others. Kano, Kaduna, Plateau, Borno and others are deporting them.

States like Jigawa, Yobe, Zamfara, Kebbi and other worthless states whose only contribution is producing Almajiris would be forced to have sense.

congratulation then

The practice is outdated, barbaric and excommunicated but many northern governors will never take this step of politics.

Your name is different from your monika. Infact there's no similarity in anyway as if is not you.

Almajiris are only useful to them during elections.
Idiot people

I disagree with you. Those children deserve fair treatment too. Why decide and seal their fate like some mini god.

Good one my friend. You are taking the right steps to protect the good people of plateau state.
May God increase your wisdom.

There is a word that was in our Criminal Code. That word is "Vagrancy". It was an offence in our Criminal Laws to be a vagrant. Now, it has been replaced with loitering.
Almajiris are vagrants and loitering in itself is a crime.

If their parents are arrested and charged for conspiracy to commit an offence. Maybe the remaining foolish adults who breed almajiri would have sense.

Therefore, tell your Almajiri Lawyers to do their worst.

Make everyone dey him dey ooo
