Iyan Zazzau: the Unassuming Lawmaker for Speaker

All the preparations for the commencement of the 10th House of Representatives has gone far. With the ongoing political calculations for the various principal offices of the house, so many members-elect have thrown their hat in the ring for the coveted speakership position. These members-elect come from different parts of the country and some of them are going for their third, fourth, and even more terms.

 However, even in the midst of these highly qualified candidates, one vividly stands out:  Hon. Tajudeen Abbas. He is the candidate to beat. The experienced lawmaker from the ancient city of Zaria has delivered beyond anticipation  in his primary duty as a legislator. With over 70 bills passed, he is someone well-versed with the rudiments and advanced aspects of lawmaking and has made crucial interventions that strengthen the entire country at this jeopardised situation. 


Hon. Abbas Tajudeen has shown that leadership could be utilised in the right manner to attend to the numerous problems of the masses. This he has done by making essential attempts: whether in form of a bill, motion, or other means that alleviate the situation his constituents and Nigerians as a whole face.  

The charismatic, self-effacing prince from Zazzau is overly prepared to lead the 10th House of Representatives at this hour of necessity for this country. The House and the nation as a whole need leaders who have the ability to offer services that help the country towards greatness: this is where the unassuming lawmaker Hon. Abbas Tajudeen comes in. The Iyan Zazzau has made tremendous amount of contributions in the so many decades he has spent serving his country, Nigeria in different capacities without expecting anything in return.  But today his contributions to nation building has seen his highly considerate colleagues supporting him to lead the 10th assembly to greater heights as speaker. 

The numerous patriotic members supporting his candidacy are doing so with the apparent understanding that the 10th assembly needs a well-rounded, calm, competent, and highly successful lawmaker to lead them. The House of Representatives needs this and patriotic Nigerians yarn for his emergence knowing full well that he offers a clear opportunity for Nigeria to be transformed through strong laws that help the entire country.  Iyan Zazzau is the right choice. Hon. Abbas Tajudeen is the right man for the job. God bless 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...
