Chief Edem Duke, former Minister of Culture and Tourism and governorship aspirant in Cross River, has donated 200 bags of cement to the Hausa/Fulani community in Calabar, for a mosque project.

Duke announced the donation on Tuesday during a visit to the community to felicitate with them on the Eid-el-Kabir celebration.

“This is the period of celebration and I deem it fit to come and celebrate with my friends.

“I heard that you have a project ongoing even though you have not informed me officially.

“I am supporting you with 200 bags of cement to hasten the completion of the project,” he said.

The aspirant also donated N500,000 to artisans and women among them, adding that this was to boost their small businesses.

Duke urged them to continue to live in peace with their host communities, saying that without peace, it was impossible to achieve economic growth and stability.

Responding, Chairman of APC Elders’ Bogobiri Ward 1, Malam Aminu Bin Usman commended the aspirant for assisting them in the mosque project.

“We are grateful for your magnanimity, especially for your support to our mosque project.

“We are highly elated and I can assure you that we are for you,” he said.

He was a Minister for Culture and Tourism but couldn't manage Mirage Nightclub successfully. Jasper wasn't a Minister but has been igniting nightlife in Cali Town. Show us how u managed ur investment then we can talk about govning Cali City.
Tell him to go and find plenty seat to sit down at far back. The point is he went really Bankrupt ,wanna offset bills and stage a comeback.

Desperados

Why foolishly taged him Christain Governor? Is cross River state a muslim state? or do they have muslims there? Please be real.

Religion or no religion a Good person is a Good person

I’m Christian but sometimes i see how some Christians act and discriminate i go just weak.

He can neva b govnor. A muslim can neva do such thing. Very stoopid man. Woe unto him! He is doomed to fail already.

I would believe in one Nigeria, if such happened to Kano Christians.

You dont please Hausa/Fulani
Donating to a mosque project is tantamount to digging your generation' s grave

Ahmadu Bello rightfully stated in the 60s that there are plentiful willing tools in Central and Southern Nigeria.

God bless your heart , continue to do so after 2019

US blames killings in Nigeria on reign of impunity-Punch Newspaper

The United States of America has blamed the killings in the Middle Belt and northern Nigeria on what it identified as the reign of impunity,.

The American government also said the killings increased because the perpetrators were not punished.


“The Nigerian government should strengthen its laws to deal with killers,” it advised.

The US also urged the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari to ensure the conduct of a free, fair, transparent, peaceful and credible process of the 2019 general elections by the Independent National Electoral Commission.

“We want partners in ways to ensure that the kind of violence we have seen over the past months don’t flare up in any election”, the American government stated.

The Deputy Chief of Mission and Charge de Affaires, US Embassy in Nigeria, David Young, expressed these views in an interview with journalists on Sunday night in Jos during his fellowship with church leaders in Plateau State.

Young, who is said to be a key member of the Methodist Church in the US, was responding to questions on the solution to the ceaseless killings and crisis between farmers and Fulani herdsmen in Plateau State, after he delivered a sermon titled, ‘Living as a Christian in a multi-religious and multi-cultural context.’

He also paid tribute to the 83-year-old Imam of Nghar village, Gashish District, Alhaji Abubakar Abdullahi, who reportedly saved 300 persons, including Christians when suspected Fulani herdsmen struck on June 24.

The acting US Ambassador to Nigeria also reiterated the condolences of the Donald Trump’s administration to the families of those killed by suspected Fulani herdsmen who attacked some communities in the Barkin Ladi Local Government Area of Plateau State.

He said, “On behalf of the United States government and American people, I want to express again our condolences on the tragic loss of lives across Plateau, North-Central and North-West states. Quite a lot of people have died; it has been very terrible tragedies. We want to affirm the sanctity of human lives and anytime a person dies, it is a tragic loss, be that person a Christian, Muslim, Berom, farmer or herder.

“I think it is clear, we know and government knows that as well. A lot of people are doing good things and working hard. But it needs to be even more because it is clear that there is a climate of impunity. When people are committing serious crimes, they get away with it, without being brought to justice.

“It is so important that there should be very strong efforts to make sure that people are brought to justice for these terrible crimes. It is also important to address the drivers of conflicts, address opportunity, fight poverty and provide jobs and hope for young people because definitely young people are getting into terrible groups. They really need to be part of the future and as such need mentoring and parenting.”

Young said key actors in Nigeria should be deeply involved in the peace-making process.
