For the Emir of Kano, Alhaji Muhammad Sanusi II, there has always been something strange about the daughter, Shaheeda who represented him at the BBOG movement’s third anniversary lecture for missing Chibok girls in Abuja last Friday.
By her own account at the Transcorp-Hilton Hotel venue of the event, Shaheeda said that she just became the first female in northern Nigeria to represent an Emir at a formal event.
While she appeared to have some inkling about the criticism that was bound to trail the development, and her not so conventional or inadequate use of the veil, her father’s video message that introduced her as a rather strange child took some members of the audience by surprise.
“Although I won’t be there in person, I decided to send not my son but my daughter, Shaheeda to represent me,” the emir said in his introduction of Shaheeda.
“Let me tell you something about the young lady who is going to read my speech. Shaheeda is a graduate of African Leadership Academy in South Africa and a graduate from New York University as a Biology major.
“But long before she went to African Leadership Academy, when she was in Form 3, I remember an incident that is probably relevant for today.
Her mother came to me and said: ‘You need to talk to your daughter’ and I asked her: ‘Why?’
“She said: ‘Your daughter slapped a boy in school’. It is a bit strange so, I called Shaheeda and said: ‘Shaheeda, I heard that you slapped a boy in school. Why did you do it?’
“Then she said: ‘Dad, that boy has no respect for women’.
“So, I asked her exactly what she meant by that. It turned out that one day, during prep in the afternoon, in full class, the boy had come to her, and put his finger to her forehead and pushed it backwards, and he was in the habit of doing it to all the girls in the class.
“She had said nothing apparently and waited until the next day. She walked into the prep class late, the whole class was full, and she walked up to him, slapped him, and said: ‘That was for yesterday’.
“So, long before we started talking about marriage and talking about whether when your husband slaps you, you should slap him back, Shaheeda had decided for herself that she would not take abuse, she would not take insult and she would not be disrespected by any man.
“As you will see when she presents this paper and maybe if she has the time to speak her own mind, those who are opposed to my views and those who think that I am a problem have a much bigger problem to deal with in the next generation of Sanusis.
“They are far more radical, they are more progressive, they are far more committed, they are far more fearless.
“So, maybe it is time for us to address these issues before those group of tigers come to the scene,” the Emir stated in the video message shortly before his daughter, Shaheeda read a prepared text.

My Muslim friends no dey wan hear court marriage at all, dey it will make dem stick to one woman all their life.

What are they smoking in that place? This is certainly beyond Osogbo weed.

Instead of destroying dis rice everytime, can't dey just send it to d idp camps.

Quinn22:
Because he doesn't have pussy right? If it was a female giving out pussy in the big brother house for 25M she's an olosho right?!

As ladies, it is urs to give n as guys, it is ours to receive, afterall it was Eve dat gave Adam d apple dat opened our eyes

They surprise that I can accept is his resignation.

Dat seem simple, but how long till they approve the withdrawal?

Quinn22:
But if a female did it for the money, she's an olosho abi?

No, but she becomes one the day she start giving out her pussy to get money on return. And dis never happened in dis case.

I have had dis argument with some guys b4, in federalism, LG isn't recognised as a federating unit. So it will b odd if we make it one, but the way our governors steal LG funds is wat brought abt d clamour for LG autonomy.

U all did it for the money, so no homo

If only dey can just take away power from dis guy, his performance for dey bold for everybody to see.

Another conviction loading........

Splashme:
Nonsense

Ur opinion though.

He now has a golden opportunity to become the man of the people not only in borno but the entire North, because he spoke the truth n he seem to be d only one standing for d president in d Senate. He should just use this period to spend more time at home.

Well am from Osun State, but I was afraid to open dis thread because of d way people av abused my state governor in d past, I was thinking we will b no 1,but I guess d truth can't b hidden for ever.

Well if they won't suspend is pay, it's good for him cos his image in d public is now of someone who stands for the truth n he can seize dis opportunity to go back to his constituency to go n spend some time with dem n also put some projects there n most importantly, he can use d period to go n stand as an advocate for the rebuilding of the North East.

Soon they will summon all of us for nairaland too.

carzola:
I would say the young
Guy wants to go into
Politics.. Adeleke family
Want to rule Lagos.

They are from Osun, their uncle was once a governor n a current Senator.

icon8:
Busy? Can he possibly be busy than the Chief Executive of a State? Why am I not surprised that he and his co-traveler from Ekiti were nowhere to be found?!

Odale ba'le ku...

And d sad thing about d two of dem is dat can 2019,should dey decide to run for any election, dey can't win on their own, dey av no electoral value.

icon8:
Loaded and pregnant with meanings!

Yes oooo n I love d fact dat Amosun n Aketi were present, Aketi even talked on behalf of Tinubu wen he paid tribute to Fela. But I don't know hw busy Fashola is oo, but he shouldn't av missed dis lookin at d number of dignitaries dat attended.

I love Ambode's speech, he made illustration to a coconut tree, he said "A coconut tree is versatile and has many products but wen d products get to d market, some get rotten n if BAT were to b a coconut, he will drink and eat BAT all his life".

Is anybody watching d programme on TVCNEWS, I think I just saw Namadi Sambo beside Dambazau.

I think it will be very difficult for him because he comes from d Okun tribe which is more like d Yorubas in d West. He played a huge role in d emergence of Yahaya Bello n it was seen as a betrayal, since their son Faleke was already closer to becoming d governor. But am nt from Kogi though, so I can b sure how dey will vote, dat was just my opinion from my observations.

They cannot be a judge in their own case, I will only take it serious wen ICPC decides to take it up n look at d documents he submitted to inec. If truly he didn't graduate n he submitted a university degree as his qualification to inec, den ICPC should prosecute him.

And they say dis guy is a pastor.

First of all, It's not compulsory Magu is d EFCC chairman but it is important dat he is, judging by d way d past EFCC chairpersons ended, so dat we can encourage others that hardwork n diligence pays n so dat we can raise others who will like to be like him.

But if I were to answer u logically, I will also ask, why must it b Messi n Ronaldo dat should win d world best? It's simple, yes because they have distinguished themselves among their peers.

U said in a population of about 180million, is he d only one, I will say yes n no because, it's only about 300 thousand in dat population dat are police officers n it's only about 2 thousand or less dat are in d rank of being an EFCC chairman n it's only about 5-7 of dem dat have worked in d EFCC till date, so logically, he should be d one since he has been there from d days of Ribadu n he knows almost all d major cases dey have handled. Or is it only Messi n Ronaldo dat can play football well in d world? But because others are nt even professional footballers, no one will consider them n their colleagues are nt in d same level with dem.

I think above all, d president just needs to put his house in order n re-present him, cos if he presents another person n d same thing happens, den wat will he do?

DonLo:
This only goes to show that Buhari is not a smart leader. A DSS under OBJ won't try such except he accents to it but wetin Buhari know. Don't blame the Senate but some elements in the presidency that didn't want Magu as the chairman, therefore, using their influence to get a DSS report to rubbish him before the action ready Senates whom most of her members have corruption hanging over their heads.
Let's tell our self the truth, Magu too corrupt. How much be him salary way him they live for 40 million naira rented house while also flying private jet around the country. And to all those shouting, 'Magu must be confirmed', na only him competent among our about 200 million population.

Why must dey be giving only Messi n Ronaldo d world best player?
It's simple, dey distinguished demselves. For d 200 million people, hw many b police officer nt to talk of EFCC

One of d few sensible appointment our president made

This guy just dey spoil the chances of the youth

oyinkinola:
....pls, pls, every one know Osinbajo is a pastor, ok
but I know for sure he has christian name, if you don't know say you don't know!

There is nothing like Christian name rather u have a christen name "oruko abiso", but because of religion, u can have a biblical name which some people still mistake with English name, like Goodluck, Frank etc

In all her statements, I have not seen where she said she is seeking protection of Kaduna state government. Until dis Apostle face dis thing squarely n stop thinking it's political, he may not be able to resolve dis issue. It's just lots just like d PDP dat invited Sheriff but blaming APC for their crisis.
