      February 11, 2020 Auno Killings: Where is Mr. President? - Asks PDP...Says Buhari Presidency Has Abandoned Nigerians The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) says the inaction of the Buhari administration on the spiraled wave of killings, banditry and kidnapping, particularly the Sunday carnage in Auno, Borno state, by insurgents, has left the nation with no other option than to hold that the Buhari Presidency has abandoned Nigerians. The party described as alarming that all the Buhari Presidency can offer in the face of the killings of our citizens are condolence statements with no decisive and significant action to track down the perpetrators and end insurgency in the country. The PDP said it is disheartening that instead of settling down at home and attending to the worsened insecurity under his watch, Mr. President and his officials are busy globetrotting. The party notes that in normal climes, with the situation in Auno, where insurgents viciously massac...

    Today, two generations of The Royal Family visited The Defence Medical Rehabilitation Centre near Loughborough. Both The Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall and The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge unveiled a plaque to mark the first Royal visit since DMRC's opening. The Defence Medical Rehabilitation Centre has been treating patients since October 2018, and will ensure rehabilitation treatment is available to seriously injured sailors, soldiers and members of the RAF.

       On going funeral Mass for Seminarian Michael Nnadi, in attendance are 8 Bishops, over 500 Priests and Rev. Sisters. It is such a touching moment for everyone, tears rolling freely.       Homily of His Lordship Bishop Matthew Hassan Kukah at the Funeral Mass of Seminarian Michael Nnadi at Good Shepherd Seminary Kaduna (11th February 2020). 1. We have gathered around the remains of Michael in supplication but also as solemn witnesses to the penetrating darkness that hovers over our country. I have the rare honour of being considered the principal mourner in this ugly tragedy. It is not an honour that I am worthy of receiving. The honour belongs to God Almighty who created Michael and marked out this moment and pathway for him. The greater honour goes to his immediate family whose devotion as Catholics laid the foundation for his faith and vocation. To his grandmother, Mrs. Eunice Nwokocha, a most simple, beautiful and devout Catholic woman wh...
