Exclusive: Balarabe spits fire,
says Buhari is weak and
incompetent


– Balarabe Musa said the atrocities being
committed by suspected Fulani herdsmen
across the country was because of the
weakness of the government
– President Buhari condemned the reported
attacks by the suspected Fulani herdsmen
– Fulani herdsmen was reported to have
killed 40 persons at Nimbo in Uzo- Uwani
Local Government Area of Enugu State
Former governor of the old Kaduna State
Balarabe Musa, said that the only
explanation for President Muhammadu
Buhari’s silence over renew attacks by
armed men suspected to be Fulani
herdsmen resulting in the deaths of several
Nigerians is absolute weakness, incompetent
and loss of focus.
About 40 persons have so far been
reportedly killed in the latest attacks by
some Fulani herdsmen at Nimbo in Uzo-
Uwani Local Government Area of Enugu
State.
Former Kaduna state Governor, Balarabe
Musa
He laments in an interview


that not only are the Fulani herdsmen killing
and attempting to forcefully take over other
peoples’ land, they also engage in stealing of
cows belonging to others, a crime he said
not reported in the media.


He said the atrocities being committed by
suspected Fulani
country and llings of innocent
Nigerians and destruction of properties in
the northeast by Boko Haram insurgents are
indication that government at the central is
weak and lack the competence to address
the current overwhelming insecurity plaguing
the country.
“The killing by Boko Haram and Fulani
herdsmen appears to be the only crime taking
place in the country. It is not at all. These
Fulani herdsmen are also stealing cows of
others and the federal government is at
moment powerless.
“My own cows have been stolen twice; last
year and this year. It was never like this until
this present government came to power. For
people to be able to steal cows in the day
time in Nigeria that shows the level of
insecurity.”
“It is terrible. The President and his
government are weak. Has the President said
anything since the Fulani herdsmen started
this senseless killings?” he asked.
“Let us not deceive ourselves. The President
is quiet because he is a weak President. The
state (Kaduna) government is also very weak
in terms of security. They have put the lives of
Nigerians in danger more than any government
in recent times,” he said.
He explained that the current level of
confidence with which the Fulani herdsmen
carries out their activities across the country
in total disregard for indigenous people who
owns the land in the first instance without a
word from the President, supports the
arguments in some quarters that they are
backed by highly placed government
officials.

enate to end B.Sc and HND dichotomy in Nigeria

Senate to end B.Sc and HND
dichotomy in Nigeria


– The differences in the degrees acquired at
universities, polytechnics and colleges will
be balanced soon
– “It is the right of every Nigerian child to
be educated by the government.”
– Achieving gender parity through
education?
The degrees acquired at universities,
polytechnics and colleges are to be treated
as of equal importance and the senate
committee on tertiary education is currently
working on it.

The chairman of the committee, Sen. Binta
Garba, commented on the process in Abuja
on Wednesday:
“Again what we are doing as a committee on
tertiary institution; we are trying to come out
with a conference on legislative agenda on
education. We are trying to look at all other
summits on education, trying to look at
policies of government on education and trying
to see how we can have a balance.
Not every one of us can go to the university
because this syndrome or dichotomy between
the university, polytechnic and colleges of
education, I think we want to streamline it and
allow every person that has gone to any
tertiary institution to believe that he is not a
second class citizen, but a first class citizen.”
Gender parity and education in Nigeria
Touching on the matter of gender equlaity
she stated: “First and foremost I am a firm
believer in gender parity, not gender equality
because when we talk about gender equality, it
sends a very wrong signal even to the men
folk.

Opinion: Buhari should stop playing with Nigerian lives

Opinion: Buhari should stop
playing with Nigerian lives

Editor’s note: While President Muhammadu
Buhari has finally addressed the issue of the
Fulani herdsmen , Nigerians continue to call on
their president to stop the killing. Paul E.
Michael, a criminologist and civil activist,
writes to Buhari, asking to stop playing ethnic
card with the lives of Nigerians.
Buhari seems not interested in curbing
Fulani herdsmen
As one who staked his integrity and life in
defence of the then General Muhammadu
Buhari presidential ambition, I find it totally
disappointing that President Buhari seems
not interested in curbing the unruly and
bloody conducts of the Fulani herdsmen,
which have resulted in the death of several
Nigerians across the country. The inability of
Mr. President to respond promptly to the
early actions of the herdsmen has made the
situation to degenerate into serial attacks. If
the president fails to act now, then we shall
have every reason to believe that our
president is running a Fulani agenda, as
claimed by some commentators.



CCT Chairman should resign

CCT chairman should resign:
FG queries Saraki's moral right


– The Senate president Bukola Saraki is
insisting the CCT chairman, Danladi Umar
withdraw from his trial over bribery
allegations
– Rotimi Jacobs, the lead prosecution
lawyer said the investigation of the bribery
allegation against Umar had been concluded
and the AGF and had cleared him of the
alleged bribery
– He said it was absurd that Saraki would
insist on remaining Senate president while
urging Umar to disqualify himself
– Also speaking, Umar said he has been
cleared of the allegation by both the EFCC
and the AGF
The federal government said it was
laughable that Bukola Saraki who is on trial
for corruption would insist on remaining the
Senate president while urging the Code of
Conduct Tribunal Chairman, Danladi Umar, to
withdraw from his trial over bribery
allegations.
Saraki asked Umar to withdraw from his trial
over bribery allegations against him.
At the hearing on Wednesday, April 27,
Rotimi Jacobs, the lead prosecution lawyer
in the trial of the Senate president, queried
the moral right of Saraki to question the
integrity of Umar and to ask him to
disqualify himself from the trial, The Nation
reports.
Jacobs said: “ This motion is absurd. The
defendant (Saraki), who has been charged to
court, is still performing his statutory duty as
a senator till today, saying that the
Constitution guarantees him presumption of
innocence.
