I write to commend the recent effort intensified by the Executive Governor of Bauchi State, His Excellency, Sen. Bala Mohammed Abdulkadir, in his bid to stick to President Muhammad Buhari’s proposal in restrengthening his proposal on local governments’ full autonomy. It is evident that the twenty local governments that constitute the Bauchi State are now being solidly renovated to meet with the updated comfortable working environments. This is an indication to every objective individual that would convince the people of Bauchi State regionally and the nation at large that the Governor is in full support of the local government autonomy.…

Nigeria ranks 146th on the Global Peace Index, making it the eighth least peaceful country in Africa. According to the 2021 Global Peace Index (GPI), Nigeria is ranked 146th out of 163 independent nations and territories in terms of peacefulness. Nigeria has moved up one position from 147 in 2020.

This is as a result of the government’s mediocre attitude toward paying adequate attention to the threat posed by these…

The insurmountable insecurity dilemma that is claiming the lives and worldly belongings of innocent Nigerians almost every day for decades is frighteningly very distressing. To the extent that Nigerians have begun to lose complete trust in you before being voted into power, you have assuredly stated that you might put a stop to the long and abhorrent event. Alas! The situation has remained unchanged, rather it’s erupting more and more like a wildfire. While Nigerians believe that by the time you are sworn in as the President of Nigeria, all the tough catastrophes will be stopped, this is because the…
For the past two decades, Nigeria has been wracked with insurmountable challenges resulting from Biafra’s war, Boko Haram, banditry, kidnapping, ritual aspects, ethnic crises, and political debacles. The government should, if possible, engage our prior military and other retired security personnel to assist her in discovering the best remedy for Nigerians’ lingering disquiet. Many public individuals have expressed their conviction that the aforementioned recommendation should be embraced by the Federal Government. I genuinely think that now is the appropriate time to consider this viewpoint. These retired security personnel have decades of experience and they should not be left behind in…
