FORMER governor of Jigawa State, Alhaji Sule Lamido has become the first presidential aspirant of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, to have an intimidating campaign office in the South East for the 2019 elections. The magnificent two-storey edifice consisting of six flats and adjoining offices located at Umuokpu area of Awka, was donated to the presidential hopeful by an indigene of the community, Chief Arize Ekelem, who is a close confidant of Lamido.

In memory of ‘the labour of our  heroes past’, Iyanya dug up raw emotions in his new tribute music video entitled ‘Not Forgotten.’
The video which was produced by foremost talent agency, Temple Management Company is  released to the singer’s fans globally for streaming and broadcast on top local and international music channels yesterday. 

ABUJA—FORMER Vice President, Namadi Sambo and the Senate President, Bukola Saraki were among the Muslim faithful who joined President Muhammadu Buhari at the Aso Villa Mosque for Juma’at prayer for the commemoration of Nigeria’s 57th Independence annive-rsary.It was the first time the former Vice President under President Goodluck Jonathan was attending jump’at prayers at the Villa mosque since he left office on the 29th May,  2015.

As we celebrate the 57th  flag independence of our great nation, Nigeria, I think there is no better determinant of the state of our nation than the state of her precious children. According to  Dr. Nelson Mandela,‘there can be no keener revelation of a society’s soul than the way in which it treats its children.’ 

Every generation has his type. So it is not surprising that Governor Ayodele Fayose and his acolytes may think that he should be a factor to be reckoned with in the political permutations ahead of 2019.
