COURT HAS DECLARED BANDITS TERRORISTS,NIGERIANS TO HEAR FRROM US SOON-MALAMI.{PHOTO}.

The Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami (SAN), says the Federal Government is yet to officially designate bandits as terrorists because the government is following international best practices. He said, “Government has a responsibility to act but within the context of acting, you equally expected to operate within the confines of international best practices associated with engagement and one of such best practices is that you can only use maximum force on groups, individuals that are declared terrorists and that is where the application of the Terrorism Act comes in place. “With that in mind, Nigeria acted, first by proscribing IPOB, taking into consideration the threats to lives and properties they have caused in the nation. Boko Haram was proscribed.”

According to Kaduna State Governor El-Rufai: “These bandits operate in the periphery because their hiding place is in the forest. It’s a major problem. The security agencies are doing their best but they are overstretched. “The reality is we don’t have enough boots on ground to address the myriad of security challenges that we face, and these security challenges are asymmetric, widespread, and there’s no part of Nigeria that doesn’t have one security problem or the other. “Ramp up the number of boots and more technology and more investment in armament and wipe these guys once and for all.

IGBOS FIND IT DIFFICULT DONATING MONEY TO CHURCHES FOR THE WORK OF GOD- PASTOR FATOYINBO.{PHOTO}.

Image
Pastor Biodun Fatoyinbo in a sermon in Abuja threw a jab on Igbos concerning what he sees as “tight hands” towards church donations.  He said that hustling is a curse, some persons find it difficult to give because of how much they hustled to get the money. “The Igbo believe in God. It takes God for an Igbo guy to give. They have a large heart but they believe you shouldn’t work their mind, the pastor of Commonwealth of Zion Assembly, popularly known as COZA added.  “Igbos are 90% Christians but no megachurch. You need to tear backgrounds to enter some testimonies. No Church with a Yoruba pastor takes more Igbo songs than COZA. Hustle is a curse! “Some people find it hard to give because they hustled to get that money. In the name of Jesus, hustle has ceased in your life”.  - Chidi Cali

He noted that If many people are rich, the burden would not be heavy on one man, or a handful of people. According to him, he learnt and started to imbibe the spirit of helping the poor in the early stages of his life. He revealed th

 New York's attorney general has subpoenaed two of Donald Trump's adult children, Donald Trump Jr and Ivanka Trump, as part of her civil probe into the former U.S. president's business practices and namesake company. The subpoenas from the office of Attorney General Letitia James were disclosed in a Monday filing with a New York state court in Manhattan. James has also subpoenaed Trump. Lawyers for the Trump family are seeking to block her from questioning the former Republican president and his children, the filing said.  Lawyers for the family were not immediately available for comment. The subpoenas were first reported by the New York Times, which cited a person familiar with the matter.  Last month, Trump sued James to block her civil probe into the Trump Organization, accusing the Democrat of partisan politics.
