Party thugs disrupt 8th Katsina Assembly inauguration


Suspected thugs and supporters of the All Progressives Congress on Tuesday disrupted proceedings at the 8th Katsina State House of Assembly inauguration.

The event, which was slated for the Assembly complex along Kaita Road, could not hold because of the rowdy environment on the floor of the House.

It was gathered that the commotion was as a result of the agitation of the supporters on who would emerge as the next Speaker of the Assembly.

The confusion in the Assembly chamber led to the abrupt postponement of the proceedings till 4pm today (Tuesday).

Our newsmen learnt that the government and some leaders of the ruling APC had pitted their tents with different candidates.

See Wooden Bridge Constructed By Young Men In Adamawa State Without Government Support

This wooden bridge was constructed by young men in Adamawa without government support. The old bridge was destroyed by Boko Haram. It was a very important bridge that connects Adamawa North and Adamawa Central. Even the governor and other important people in the state use this wooden bridge when they visit their villages. Instead of rebuilding the bridge, the Adamawa state government recently announced that it will spend 200 million Naira on prayer warriors. I believe that is a misuse of public money. Nigerians are praying daily. You don't need to spend millions on prayers. The North East states have a lot of work to do in rebuilding the communities and infrastructures destroyed by Boko Haram. I don't think the governors in the region understand the magnitude of the problem. It is time for them to wake up and get their priorities right. If you know the Adamawa State governor, tell him that rebuilding this bridge is an important and urgent project.
