PANTAMI’S COSTLY MISCALCULATION DURING EL-RUFAI’S MOTHER’S BURIAL

Politics has its own rules. Timing and perception matter as much as intentions. Those who see it only through a moral or religious lens often misread the dangers, and that is exactly what happened in this case. Recently, at the burial of the mother of former Kaduna State governor Nasir El‑Rufai, a moment meant for grief turned into a political scene. Present there was Uba Sani, a man whose political relationship with El‑Rufai has grown tense in recent times.   Pantami wanted to get the credit for reconciliation and insisted on a public handshake between the two former (according to El-Rufai) friends. From a religious standpoint, one might understand the need for that. In faith traditions, reconciliation is virtuous, and many scholars often encourage believers to mend broken ties. Pantami likely saw the moment through that spiritual frame. He may, in his mind, have been drawing inspiration from a hadith that promotes peace between disputing parties. But politics is a differen...

ON ELRUFA'I THE FAKE MESSIAH - Mohammed Abubakar Usman

 At a gathering, when Maryam Alhanisalam called El-Rufai  "The Iron Man,"  he laughed not out of humility, but because he had just heard the most suitable title for himself. A man who prided himself on ruling with an iron hand, rigid, stubborn, unmoved, unshaken and unquestioning of his own decisions, dismissing critics like they were beneath him and carrying himself like the only one with sense.

Kaduna, a state already battling religious and...

WHO IS WRONG AND WHAT WENT WRONG: (a look into almajiri system). By s.a bawa. Saifuadam@gmail.com Every african has a dream, that very dream to get out of poverty line, but many die too young with their dreams. In nigeria, most talent are bound, it is here that we struggle to gain, million ways of visions yet to tap, every nigerian is battling poverty, even the so-called rich men because we are seeing them busy with court cases on their neck and it is all about MONEY so that they don't get poor. The poor are negleted and forgotten like an old page of an old book in an old isolated library. The reason is only that they are POOR, not forgetting that they were born poor because some greedy people stole their life in a horror moment. Poverty is the poor peoples common friend, they are not bad but yet people rejected the poor. Poor people suffer because GREEDY people consider poverty as a SIN. The gaskiyan magana is ALL of us want to make money, but money b...
