As We Await 2019



Abdul Mudallib Muktar

It is undeniably true that many Nigerians are gradually becoming so gullible; having already being brainwashed by the  sharp-fallacy-tongue of politiCIANS who instead cheat POLITICALLY.  Many of us are turned into a ball being kicked by different shoes from different angles to different corners. Just very few amongst us who resist the so-called brain-destabilization can their eyes penetrate through darkness. I want to publicly make this known to those power-drunken politicians that, it is not all they can brainwash through their agents of propaganda and to let my compatriots notice the evil they are plotting to continue in the corridors of power in 2019 and even ahead.

As everyone clearly notices the clashes and clanging of politicians' matches presently going on between them, to bring all combustible materials and substances to light the fire of their campaign sooner than later, I assure you, they will do anything humanly possible to bring back the already dying hope in our hearts deceitfully. It is very paramount to walk while being extra-cautious as the Hausa man would say, "To watch side by side is what beautifies a journey." We should not fall victims of political blindness and credulity.

Contemporary politicans make use of divergent tactics which I critically observed. They say that yesterday is dead and forgotten, tomorrow yet to come, while today is what dominates man's mind. Using that, they would tactically embark on some abandoned projects which were not implemented at the most needed time to force the memory into  minds of the masses; it would saturate with their senses and worsen their naivety.

It is time when the politicians will wake from any kind of political laxity and lethargy to do something for us, so that we would turn into praise-singers and their mouths. It is time when politicians will deliberately create problems amongst the masses and later find solution to them just to show the so-called leadership capacity they paradoxically have. It is time when they produce their posters on exercise books, on bags of rice, on women's wrappers etc.

In addition, it is time when the politicians will buy some of our materialistic religious clerics to advertise them in the mosques and the churches. This is also a time when traditional leaders will be pocketed by politicians all in absurd effort to continue in the political train. Moreso, some analysts and critics will also be married by those politicians to dance to the tune of flicking naira shaken by the breeze of political corruption.

Fellow compatriots, never be carried away by crook politicians; you already know who means not to you but to his wife and children. Stand for the progress of Nigeria not an individual; let's be after Nigeria not Nigerian. Inasmuch we stand after Nigeria, no Nigerian can divert our attention from moving the country forward. God bless Nigeria and destroy any Nigerian who unrepentantly harms Nigeria.

Long May You Reign

Abdul Mutallib Muktar abdulmutallib.muktar@gmail.com The very time you were born into this world, no one foresaw who you would become in the future. But on your palm appeared bold letters stating that you would rule the emirate of Zazzau in 2020 to a period only time can tell; it is just that human eyes could not see. Until today that it finally happened, we would not have known what was on your palm when you came to the world. It is with the hands of faith we accept you as the fate of Zazzau. Long may you reign, Your Royal Highness. A gentleman like you with a mountain of experience deserves the turban and that is the reason we hear varieties of tambourine drums coming from different places celebrating you as the successor to the late Shehu Idris of blessed memory (May his soul rest in peace). The space of social media is filled up with good wishes and prayers for you as the man currently sitting on the throne after weeks of expectation and prayers. Your Higness, in you I see the r...

A Century Without an Emir from Mallawa Dynasty

Mallam Musa Bamalli, a warrior, an Islamic scholar was a flag bearer for Usman Dan Fodio  who was sent to the old Hausa kingdom of Zazzau. Musa defeated the then Hausa emir in 1808 and turned the kingdom into an emirate under the caliphateship of Dan Fodio. The warrior continued to rule Zazzau until his demise in 1821. He was the founding father of the Mallawa dynasty that happened to be one of the four ruling houses in Zazzau. (The other three dynasties are: Barebari, Katsinawa, Sullubawa). Since the death of Mal. Musa, only a very few times his descendants ruled Zazzau and it is over a century now without an emir from his progeny. It is not surprising that since the death of the late Emir Shehu Idris (May his soul repose in peace), the people of Zazzau have been so agog of knowing the succeeding emir while everyone has in mind their contender whom they pray for. One of the four major contenders is the son of Mallawa, a great grandson of Mallam Musa Bamalli, the Magajin Garin Zazz...

INAUGURAL SPEECH BY THE PRESIDENT OF COURT OF APPEAL, AHMADU BELLO UNIVERSITY SRC-COURT

Waking up in the early hours of Monday, preoccupied by the thought of my inaugural speech, came to me with great astonishment. The announcement of my swearing-in as the President, Court of Appeal, ABU Judiciary, sounded to me like a fairy tale. This remarkable step in my journey at the Faculty of Law, ABU, Zaria would not have materialised without the approval of the Lord of their lordships, the Creator of the universe. To Him be the glory! The copacetic effort of the Council of Principal Partners, Faculty of Law, Ahmadu Bello University, must not go unappreciated for an impressive display of expertise, resilience and wisdom from the period of rigorous screening to the period of a colourful inauguration. This milestone would not have been reached without the supervision of our dogged, patient and supportive lecturers. Thank you immensely. I am using this medium to offer my sincere congratulations to the newly appointed Chief Justice of ABU SRC-Court, Justices of Supreme Court, Justices...
