 Atiku pledges scholarship to viral Niger teen miner Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar on Sunday said his “heart breaks” each time he watches a viral video of a teenage artisanal miner, Yusuf Aliyu, speaking at a mining site in Niger State after the deaths of 37 miners in the state. Atiku, in a statement posted on his X handle, said he was prepared to support the boy’s education, describing him as a child whose intelligence and confidence should be nurtured in a classroom rather than by working at a mining site. “I have watched Yusuf Aliyu’s video repeatedly, and each time, my heart breaks.

PRESIDENT MUGABE SAID TODAY THAT,ZIMBABWE VETERANS HAD INDICATED THEY WANTED HIM TO RETIRE.

                          Today friday,92 year old President Robert Mugabe said veterans of Zimbabwe's independence war had indicated they wanted him to retire and he would consider it if they asked him directly.Mugbabe pointed out however that others had tried to push him out in the past and failed.He told supporters at a rally in Bindura,north of Harare,that leaders of the Zimbabwe Liberation War Veterans Association {ZLWVA} were pushing for him to step down.Mugabe,himself a war veteran and patron of the ZLWVA said the organisation would hold a ''frank'' meeting with him in the first week of April,where the veterans should freely express their views.Mugabe said in his native Shona language that ''They have this thinking that the president has overstayed and should go.So war veterans come to Harare....so that we can discuss this.No one should intimidate anyone.We will be saying,speak your mind.I will leave if that's what you want.It has to come through the party.But will that help you at this moment?''..Today friday's comments are likely to be met with scepticism,coming from a man who has ruled Zimbabwe since independence from Britain in 1980.One more photo below.
