 Alia’s car gift to Benue judiciary in order – Attorney General The Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice and Public Order of Benue State, Hon. Barr. Fidelis Mnyim has said the car gift to the judiciary by Governor Hyacinth Alia is a symbol of support and commitment as promised when he assumed office. Barr Mnyim was reacting to a query posed by Prof. Ernest Ojukwu, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, in a tweet on Monday, 7th May 2024, challenging the viability of the autonomy granted to Benue State Judiciary if the State governor was still buying cars for them. MAGIC FM recalls that Governor Alia donated six (SUV) vehicles recently to the judiciary. The Professor had wondered why Governor Alia of Benue State should procure vehicles for the state’s judiciary when the funds allocated to the judiciary could be utilized for that purpose. The Attorney General of the State said that the procurement of vehicles for the judiciary constituted an additional benevolent gesture by the Governor.

Police Officer Family Seeks Help Over ₦3.5m Loss Of Property To Fire

***

The family of a Nigerian police officer with the FCT Police Command, Insp. Ahmed Adamu, is seeking  help from well-meaning Nigerians over the loss of his valuables and property worth ₦3.5 million to fire. 


Mrs Fadilah Adamu, the wife of Adamu, speaking on behalf of her husband, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Masaka on Tuesday,  that the fire occurred at about 10:45 p.m. on January 10.


Adamu, while recounting the losses, said their three bedroom bungalow situated at Talent Science School Street, Jeun, Masaka, was razed by the fire as calls made to the fire service for help to minimise the damage proved abortive.


She said when the incident happened, the family called the fire service and the officers promised to come to rescue the situation, but they never came and the house got burnt beyond recognition.


“I was in my sitting room to rest after the day’s job, my husband put on the generator for my family to continue watching the television.


“We planned to turn off the generator by 11 p.m., before then, my husband did not hear the sound of the generator, so when he went outside, he discovered that the children had switched it off.


“He asked the children why they switched it off, that was when we got to know that the chicken cage was on fire as a result of the charcoal pot used in keeping the chickens warm.


“The fire was beyond control due to the harmattan weather as it quickly spread to the entire building.


“It took the efforts of neighbours to put out the fire after about two hours of rigorous work,” she said.


Adamu said that apart from the television set that was removed, every other valuables got burnt in the fire.


“If I want to calculate all that was lost based on present market survey, it will cost about ₦3.5 million estimate to get the zinc, wood, electrical and the plastering work.


“My families are now displaced, we have no where to stay so I am appealing to Nigerians, and civil society organisations to come to our aid so we can have a place for my family,” she said.
