 Eight Kwara TESCOM Applicants Disqualified Over Failed Drug Tests Eight out of 1,800 shortlisted candidates for teaching roles under the Kwara State Teaching Service Commission (TESCOM) have been disqualified after testing positive for banned substances. TESCOM Press Secretary, Sam Onile, revealed this in a statement on Monday, quoting the Commission’s Chairman, Bello Abubakar. The affected candidates tested positive for drugs including tramadol, marijuana, benzodiazepine, cotinine, and amphetamine. The tests were conducted by the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) with the support of the state government. Abubakar said the disqualified applicants will be replaced by the next best-performing candidates from their respective local governments. “This underscores the government’s zero-tolerance stance on drug abuse,” the statement read. “We cannot risk exposing schoolchildren to such influences.” The TESCOM chairman also commended Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq for champio...

 I’ve never asked for a Kobo to write pardon letter – Falana


Human rights lawyer and Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Femi Falana, said that he has represented numerous clients in legal battles for decades and emphasised that his practice does not profit from the misfortunes of others.


In an interview with Sahara TV posted via YouTube on Monday, he further provided a detailed account of his longstanding commitment to defending human rights without financial gain.


“As a policy, we do not collect fees to write letters for pardon. It is not part of our system because we do not profit from the tragedy of people,” he stated.


Falana cited multiple instances from his 42-year legal career where he intervened in cases of alleged injustice without charging a fee. Among these, he referenced his role in securing the release of six Nigerians who had been wrongfully detained in the Kirikiri Correctional Centre.


Despite being pardoned by the Thai government in 2017, the individuals remained incarcerated until my intervention led to their release in 2022.


“I did a letter addressed to the then Minister of Interior….on the day he received the letter, he ordered the authorities of the correction centre, Kirikiri correction Centre to release them, only two of them came here to thank me,” he said.


Falana further emphasised that his practice is driven by a commitment to justice and not financial gain.


“In the last 42 years of my legal practice, I have never ever demanded for a kobo to write a letter of pardon for anybody,” he said.


Falana used the forum to addressed allegations of seeking a pardon for Bobrisky in exchange for N10 million. He described the claims as infantile and ridiculous.


He expressed disappointment over the allegations, sharing that they had caused concern within his family. Despite this, Falana reassured them of his integrity and commitment.


“I told my family that, at the end of the day, I will not disappoint you,” he said.
