Former Governor of Lagos state and national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu has said that he won’t retire from politics until he becomes President of Nigeria. The presidential aspirant said this while addressing delegates and party members in Makurdi, Benue State capital. Tinubu who admitted that he is ‘of age,’ also promised to turn around the fortune of the country where corruption will be tackled on all fronts and also ensure peaceful coexistence of Nigerians. He said; “We are of age; we can retire soon but I am not going to retire until I become President. “I will govern with all my strength, we will work with you to reverse trend of corruption, there are elements of division but our commitment to Nigeria is for peaceful coexistence to build up and demonstrate unity and live together in peace and harmony.” https://tickernewsng.com/i-wont-retire-from-politics-untill-i-become-president-tinubu/

Serving overseer of The Citadel Global Community Church, formerly known as the Latter Rain Assembly, Pastor Tunde Bakare has condemned the killing of a Christian student, Deborah Samuel in Sokoto state. Bakare who recalled being a Muslim in the past in a statement released on Monday May 16, said he has read the Quran from “cover to cover” and the holy book does not justify killing anywhere. He further stated that the killing of Deborah should be a wake-up call for the nation to once again reflect on our common humanity and reject every form of savagery. The statement read; “It was with deep distress that I received the news of the gruesome killing of Deborah Samuel in Shehu Shagari College of Education, in Sokoto State. No Nigerian, and indeed, no human being, should be subjected to such inhumanity by fellow humans,” the statement reads. “As a nation of diverse peoples and cultures, there are available institutional mechanisms for resolving sensitive conflicts and, no matter the provocation, no person under our laws has the right to take laws into their own hands. “As one who was a devout Muslim and who read the Qur’an from cover to cover, what was done to Deborah Samuel is nowhere justified in the religion of peace that was handed down to me by my grandfather who was the first Chief Imam of Iporo Sodeke Mosque in Abeokuta. My deep condolences go to the family of Deborah Samuel and I pray that we all find in God the comfort and fortitude to bear this great loss. “When I heard of the unrest that broke out in Sokoto after the arrest of some persons involved in the act, I immediately placed a call to Bishop Matthew Kukah to guarantee that he was safe and he assured me that, contrary to the news making the rounds in some quarters, his residence and the cathedral were not set ablaze. He further told me that the Governor of Sokoto State, Governor Aminu Tambuwal, swiftly intervened and dispatched security men to his residence and cathedral to prevent any mob attack. “This is commendable and I trust that the institutions of state will be fully deployed to restore law and order, ensure that justice is done and to address the underlying issues that this sad incident has once again brought to the fore. “I also appeal to the good people of Sokoto State to remember the tolerance and hospitality that they have always been known for. As a child, I lived in Sokoto State. When my father travelled up north in the 1950s from Abeokuta in search of a market for his kola-nut produce, he was warmly received by the people of Sokoto State. “So hospitable were the people that my father settled in Sokoto for a period and invested in cotton farms in Shagari Village. Though he was Yoruba, my father was given the nickname “Sanni Arewa” by the very friendly people of Sokoto. Such unity and tolerance should remain our true identity as a people.” https://tickernewsng.com/i-was-a-devout-muslim-quran-doesnt-condone-killings-pastor-tunde-bakare/
