 Outcries Over State Recognised Vigilantes In North-West   The security outfits established by various state governments, especially in the North-West, are being accused of indiscriminate arrests and killing of suspects, as well as innocent people without recourse to judicial processes, findings by Daily Trust Saturday revealed. But those charged with the responsibility of managing the outfits have debunked the claims of extrajudicial killings, though some admitted what they described as “overzealousness” by some of the operatives. It was alleged that in some states, long lists of suspected bandits, their supporters or sympathisers have been arrested and ultimately killed, and such acts are allegedly being carried out without recourse to the police and other law enforcement agencies. So far, the Katsina State Community Watch Corps (CWC), Zamfara State Community Protection Guards (CPG), Kaduna State Vigilantes Service (KADVIS) and the Sokoto State Community Guard Corps (CGC) have been e

JANUARY-DECEMBER BUDGET CYCLE WILL ALLOW FOR PROPER IMPLEMENTATION-GBAJABIAMILA.{PHOTO}.#PRESS RELEASE.

     The Speaker of the House of Representatives Rep. Femi Gbajabiamila has said that the National Assembly is doing everything to return the country's budget to the January to December cycle for proper implementation. Besides, the Speaker said, the 1999 constitution provides that the country's budget should run from January to December, except as otherwise prescribed by the National Assembly where there are strong reasons to do so. Gbajabiamila, who spoke on Wednesday at the opening of a 2-day public hearing on the 2020 budget organised by the joint Senate and House Committee on Appropriation, said having the budget running from another period other than January to December may have "depressing impact on the economy." "Many people have asked me what's the big deal about January to December budget cycle? Why are we so pressed on returning the financial year to January to December? It's simple, the constitution says so. A lot of people are not aware

WE ARE THE SONS AND DAUGHTERS OF ODUDUWA AND NOT YORUBAS-FEMI FANI-KAYODE.[PHOTOS}.#PRESS RELEASE.

      There are two demeaning and insulting names that the Fulani gave to southerners: "Nyamiri" (meaning 'fetcher of water') in reference to the people of the South-East and "Yariba" in reference to the people of the South West. The South East rejected that name but the South West accepted it. The name "Yoruba" derives from "Yariba" and it means "shady and unreliable". I reject that strange name and label and I hope and pray that the good people of South Western Nigeria will see the wisdom in doing so too. I am not a "Yariba" or "Yoruba" but an "Omo Karo Jire" or an "Ooduwan" and my lanuage is not "Yoruba" but "Anago". We are what we call ourselves. We are not "shady and uneliable"(Yariba) and we must not accept names that are given to us by our historical adversaries. Any Omo Karo Jire or Ooduwan that continues to call himself a "Yoruba" is
