Blaming opposition for hunger is ‘delusion’, Atiku tells Tinubu Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has accused President Bola Tinubu of blaming the opposition for the country’s economic hardship. He said the President was trying to evade responsibility for his administration’s policies. Tinubu had earlier on Saturday blamed his political opponents for hunger and poverty in the country while speaking at the All Progressives Congress presidential campaign flag-off in Kaduna. “I hear my opponent talking about hunger, poverty. Who created it? They did! They created the hunger, they created the poverty. We are trying to eradicate it,” the President said. Atiku, the presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress, said Nigerians were entitled to demand answers from the APC-led government over rising living costs, poverty, insecurity and questions surrounding public expenditure.

CHILD LABOR : OBINABO HANDS CULPRIT OVER TO THE POLICE, CASE TO BE CHARGED TO COURT.


By Chidinma Ikeanyionwu

The Anambra State Commissioner for Women and Social Welfare, Hon Ify Obinabo has handed  one Eneh Ogechukwu over to the police for using a sick child to beg for alms. 

Hon Obinabo who was visibly sad over the development despite her numerous warnings for perpetrators to desist fortwit, vowed to not let anyone who is caught again go scot free.

The Anambra State Commissioner once again warned that Anambra state is not a place where perpetrators of crime thrive especially using children for begging and stated that she will continue to get as many defaulters as possible until sanity is brought to the state.

Eneh Ogechukwu aged 27, from Udi in Enugu state was caught at Oyeolisa Ogbunike using a 10 Year old girl from Benue for begging. 

When interrogated on why she decided on such law breaking venture, Miss Eneh said she was only trying to help the 10 year old and her family solicit support from the public in order to get money for the child's medical treatment. 

She informed the Honourable Commissioner that the said girl is suffering from tumor disease hence the reason why her tummy was protruded. 

On when she started the business, she noted that she started begging with kids since December 2022, and has been able to make the sum of 100,000 thousand naira as against the sum of 400,000 thousand naira their doctor told her for the tumor surgery. 

After the questioning, she was handed over to the Ogidi police division and the case transferred to state criminal investigative department in Awka and will soon be arraigned before the Children, Sexual and Gender Based Violence Magistrate court in Awka. 

Also Hon Obinabo has taken the 10year old to the hospital for medical examination and possible treatment.
