 Atiku pledges scholarship to viral Niger teen miner Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar on Sunday said his “heart breaks” each time he watches a viral video of a teenage artisanal miner, Yusuf Aliyu, speaking at a mining site in Niger State after the deaths of 37 miners in the state. Atiku, in a statement posted on his X handle, said he was prepared to support the boy’s education, describing him as a child whose intelligence and confidence should be nurtured in a classroom rather than by working at a mining site. “I have watched Yusuf Aliyu’s video repeatedly, and each time, my heart breaks. A child with such intelligence, clarity and confidence should be in a classroom building his future—not struggling for survival in a community surrounded by gold but buried in poverty. “I cannot look at him and see an ‘illegal miner.’ I see a Nigerian child failed by the country that should have protected him.

 Use ‘prophecies’ to promote unity, not division, it is reckless to say that the Igbos are the problem of Nigeria———- Mr Eze Chukwu (APGA National youth Leader) tells clerics


The National Youth Leader of All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA), Mr Eze Chukwu, has cautioned clerics against using their ‘prophecies’ and messages to divide Nigerians rather than unify them.


Chukwu gave the advice in a statement issued in Abuja on Monday.


He said it was unfortunate that certain ‘prophecies’ had the potential to cause more social problems for the nation than proffer solution to its challenges.


Chukwu, who is also the APGA chairmanship candidate of APGA in the upcoming Abuja Municipal Area Council (AMAC), urged President Bola Tinubu to call the ‘prophet’ to order.


He described the statement as irresponsible, reckless, inflammatory, and capable of igniting unnecessary tension in the country. Chukwu said: 


“As the national youth leader committed to national unity, peace, and justice, Ayodele’s statement is condemned in a strongest possible terms”


He said that such a narrative has no place in a multicultural nation such as Nigeria, adding that it should not come from a supposed religious leader.


“This statement is not just irresponsible, it is reckless, inflammatory, and capable of igniting unnecessary tension in Nigeria.It is therefore dangerous, ignorant, and utterly irresponsible to label an entire Igbo tribe, over 45 million people as the problem of Nigeria"


According to Chukwu, every tribe has good and bad people, patriots and criminals and that human nature is not tribal.


Chukwu said that ndi Igbo contribute immensely to the growth and stability of the country through: commerce and enterprise, education and innovation.


He said their contributions were also evident in the public service as well as investments in different parts of the country.
