Putin vows severe punishment for Moscow concert hall attackers

Russian President, Vladimir Putin, on Saturday described the attack on a concert hall that killed more than 100 as a “barbaric terrorist act”.

Putin also vowed harsh retribution to all those involved.

In a televised address, Putin said all four gunmen had been arrested before they had a chance to cross the border into Ukraine.

“I am speaking to you today in connection with the bloody, barbaric terrorist act, the victims of which were dozens of innocent, peaceful people,” Putin said in his first public remarks since the attack.

“All four perpetrators of the terrorist attack who shot and killed people have been detained. They were travelling towards Ukraine where, according to preliminary information, they had a window to cross the border,” the Kremlin leader said.

Russia’s FSB security service said earlier the assailants had been “in contact” with people in Ukraine as they tried to flee the country.

At least 115 people were killed by armed gunmen at the Crocus City Hall in a suburb on the northern edge of Moscow on Friday. The concert hall was set ablaze. The attack has been claimed by the Islamic State group but Russian authorities have not mentioned this.

“Terrorists, murderers, non-humans will face the unenviable fate of retribution and oblivion,” said Putin, who declared Sunday a day of national mourning across Russia.

Justify money spent on Ramadan feeding, APC challenges Kano

The Kano State chapter of the All Progressives Congress has challenged the state government to prove the N6 billion it spent on the Ramadan feeding programme.

The challenge is coming after Governor Abba Yusuf, on Friday, expressed dismay over the ongoing Ramadan feeding programme in the Kano metropolis.

The state APC chairman, Alhaji Abdullahi Abbas, threw the challenge to the governor when he flagged off the distribution of palliatives to APC leaders and supporters in the state on Saturday.

The distribution of the food items was flagged off in Dawkins Kudu local government area of Kano State.

Abbas, who described the programme as a sham, asked the state government to show evidence that the food being provided was commensurate with what they spent on the programme.

He said, “We know the Federal Government, Dangote and BUA have provided palliatives, So, let them show evidence that they have spent the said amount on the programme.

“The grains we are distributing to our supporters were purchased through contribution from ourselves as we don’t have a government.”

In his remark, the Chief of Staff to the APC National Chairman, Muhammad Garba, who represented his nation at the occasion, said they purchased 5, 840 50kg bags of rice, 1,600 bags of millet, 2, 000 cartons of Spaghetti to give out to their supporters and other Kano People.

Garba explained that the National Chairman of the APC, Dr. Abdullahi Ganduje coordinated the idea of the party palliative, with Deputy Senate President Barau Jibrin, and others contributed to purchasing the food items.

He said 484 wards of the state’s 44 local government areas will benefit from the gesture that will be given to all party supporters, social media influencers as well as other ordinary party staffers.

“Our National Chairman, Dr Umar Ganduje, is also planning to ensure that the palliative is sustained to cushion the effect of economic hardship, which is temporary with President Tinubu’s efforts in tackling the challenges.

*So, we felt it necessary to support our party supporters and leaders across the 484 wards, especially during this Ramadan period since we’re in a privileged position, “he added.

Varsity students seek probe of illegal mining in OAU

The National Association of University Students has condemned reports of illegal mining activities within the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile Ife, Osun State.

This was contained in a statement signed by the Vice Chairman of NAUS in Osun State, Akinyemi Hammed, Deputy National President, Babalola Daniel and National Security Director of NAUS, Eruobami Ayobami on Saturday.

This is coming a few hours after the institution’s management refuted the report, saying it has not entered into any form of lease and agreement with illegal miners.

The student union, however, sympathised with the university community members who are being directly affected by these illegal operations.

The statement read in part, “The safety, health, and well-being of thousands of students, faculty, and staff members are seriously threatened by the recent revelations regarding illegal mining activities near the university’s staff quarters and essential water sources.

“The sacredness of academia is violated when mining operations encroach on university property, endangering the quest for knowledge and enlightenment that academic institutions are designed to promote.”

NAUS called on concerned stakeholders to swiftly resolve the situation at the institution, saying Investigative measures are needed.

“All pertinent parties must give the OAU crisis their immediate attention and take prompt action. We demand that the administration of the institution put the security and welfare of the student body first by acting quickly to put an end to these unlawful acts and hold those involved accountable.

“Furthermore, we implore the Federal Ministry of Environment, the Ministry of Solid Minerals, and other relevant organisations to initiate a thorough inquiry into the issue and guarantee that those responsible be held accountable.

“Additionally, we make a call to international organisations to provide their knowledge and assistance in resolving this urgent matter, which poses a threat not only to the neighbourhood but also to the environment and public health.

“Working together is essential to ensuring that our universities remain bulwarks of knowledge and advancement, free from the scourge of illicit mining and other harmful operations.

“NAUS is steadfast in its commitment to fighting for the welfare and rights of Nigerian students, and it will keep a careful eye on events at OAU,” the statement continued.

NDDC to enhance aquaculture training in Bayelsa

The Niger Delta Development Commission, says it will collaborate with the Bayelsa State Government and a private firm to train youths in aquaculture at the multi-million-naira Bayelsa Aquaculture Village in Yenegwe, Yenagoa Local Government Area of the state.

The NDDC Executive Director, Projects, Victor Antai, stated this when he visited the Bayelsa State-owned aquaculture farm, currently operated by Aquaseas Company Limited, accompanied by the NDDC Director Agric and Fisheries, Mrs Winifred Madume; the Director, Procurement, Dr Week Doodei and other directors of the Commission.

This was contained in a statement issued in Port Harcourt by the NDDC Director, Corporate Affairs, Pius Ughakpoteni, on Saturday.

Incidentally, Doodei was the state Commissioner for Agriculture when the facility was built.

Antai said: “We decided to take a look at this facility and see how best we can incorporate it into the NDDC Holistic Opportunities, Projects and Engagement, HOPE, programme, which has agriculture as its key component.

“The Project HOPE initiative seeks to engage youths of the region by creating employment opportunities for them. We have collated the data of the youth in the region and many of them are interested in agriculture.

“The NDDC is resolute in the quest to provide food security in the Niger Delta region and we need to engage the youth in agriculture to achieve this goal.”

The NDDC Executive Director, Projects said he was impressed with the facilities at the Aquaculture Village, noting that the farm boasts of a hatchery, earth ponds, and feed mill, as well as fish processing and packaging units.

He added, “We have discussed the possibility of bringing our youths from the nine states of the Niger Delta to train in the farm. After the training, ponds will be allocated to each of the trainees so they can put what they learnt into practice and start their business here first, before moving back to their various states.”

Antai said that the NDDC would go into a tripartite partnership with the necessary stakeholders, saying, “We will interface with the Bayelsa State Government and also discuss with the company. Then the three parties will sit down to discuss how to explore the best partnership that will favour the youths of the Niger Delta region.”

Antai recalled that the NDDC recently entered into a partnership with the Rice Farmers Association of Nigeria, RIFAN, as part of its efforts to ensure food security in the Niger Delta region.

Earlier, the Managing Director of Aquaseas Company Limited,. Steve Okeleji, said the aquaculture village, sited on a 127-hectare land, had 500 fish ponds, 60 of which were currently stocked with catfish and tilapia.

He regretted that the farm was underutilised.

He stated, “The arrangement we have with the state government, is to have a social enterprise model, where the government will bring in the beneficiaries to be trained and also support them with inputs, while we provide the requisite knowledge and expertise to ensure that the project succeeds.
“We want NDDC to collaborate with us in the area of capacity building, especially for the youths in the Niger Delta region.”

Giving more insights, the Aquaseas Programmes and Project Lead, Mr. Olalekan Adeleke, stated that the Bayelsa Aquaculture Village was a fully integrated facility, with a hatchery, a dry chain processing unit, a feed mill and a testing laboratory.

He added, “We have trained about 2,000 youths sponsored by the Bayelsa State Government. We have also collaborated with the Livelihood Improvement Family Enterprise in the Niger Delta, LIFE-ND, funded by the International Fund for Agriculture Development, the Federal Government and the NDDC in training 900 youths.

How fake news threatened my 40-year-old marriage -Lai Mohammed

A former Minister of Information and National Orientation, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, has recounted how fake news circulated on social media nearly destroyed his 40-year-old marriage.

The ex-minister shared his story during an event in Lagos commemorating Prof. Wole Soyinka’s 90th birthday, where he discussed “The Media in the Age of Disinformation.” The text of Mohammed’s presentation was made available to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Saturday.

Mohammed, also serving as the Managing Partner of Bruit Costard, a lobbyist and public relations firm, reflected on one of the significant challenges he encountered during his tenure as minister: the rampant spread of fake news, misinformation, and disinformation.

Mohammed emphasized that fake news, disinformation, and misinformation nearly destroyed his marriage, highlighting their extensive consequences.

He said, “Permit me to share publicly with you today for the first time, how social media threatened the foundation of my 40-year-old marriage.

“It was sometimes in 2018 when I came to Lagos from Abuja for an official assignment.
“As usual, I retire to bed about midnight, but about 3 am., my wife gently roused me from my slumber.

“At first, I panicked, fearing that there had been a security breach, but my wife’s mien belied that possibility, for she was calm and composed.”

He continued: “Solemnly, my wife asked me if I was fully awake as there were some serious issues to discuss.

“I could not fathom what was that urgent or serious to warrant being woken up at this time of the night.

“My mind immediately did a kaleidoscope of my rascalities and escapades in the last few months”.

Mohammed said the accusation from his wife was “a bombshell” and was narrated to him in Yoruba language.

He presented the narration as follows:
“Daddy, death can come knocking at any moment, please let me also, as your wife, be a signatory to your overseas account in Ali Financial which contains 1.3 billion dollars.”

The ex-minister expressed disbelief that his wife fully believed the false story circulating about government officials, including himself, supposedly having large sums of money in overseas accounts during former President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration.

“I spent the next two hours or so, sweating to convince my wife that there is no iota of truth in the allegation.

“I had to fetch a calculator and reproduce the Federal Appropriation Act for 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018 in the middle of the night and explain to her why it is simply p
reposterous for me to have 1.3 billion dollars in a foreign account.

“I explained to her that there is no year my capital budget exceeded N5 billion, which then, at about N400 to a dollar, was just 12.5 million dollars.

“I explained that, even if I managed to divert every kobo of it to my personal account, it will take at least, 104 years to save the sum of 1.3 billion dollars being peddled that I stole,” he said.

Mohammed added: “My wife insisted that the whole world believed the story and that her friends had, as a result, besieged her with all kinds of requests.

“She said every effort on her part to deny the existence of this foreign account only succeeded in depicting her in the minds of her friends as a selfish, greedy and uncaring friend.

“Is my wife truly convinced of my innocence? The answer is in the wind!. “
Mohammed reiterated that social media remained the platforms of choice for the purveyors of fake news, anti-state groups, anarchists, secessionists, terrorists and bandits.

During his time in government, Mohammed remembered that his ministry uncovered 476 online publications solely dedicated to disseminating fake news against the previous administration of President Buhari.

Mohammed specifically remembered the fake news claiming that the former president had passed away while undergoing treatment in a London hospital and had been replaced by a clone named “Jubril from Sudan.”

According to Mohammed, the problem of fake news persisted through the campaigns leading up to the 2023 general elections, during which President Bola Tinubu became a target. Videos and speeches attributed to him were manipulated and distorted to spread false information.

He mentioned that those spreading fake news were persistent in their attempts to undermine the commendable policies and programs of Tinubu’s administration.

Mohammed highlighted how fake news had grown drastically due to the use of Artificial Intelligence and deep learning techniques, enabling the creation of highly realistic fake or manipulated videos, audio recordings, or images.

“The consequences of disinformation and misinformation are far-reaching.

“They undermine democratic processes, sow discord within communities, and pose significant threats to public health and safety.

“Today, even the media is at risk of losing its credibility because of the proliferation of fake news on Social Media

“Therefore, the media, as custodians of the public trust, must take decisive action to combat the scourge of disinformation and misinformation,” he said

Mohammed asserted that social media platforms and other intermediaries, accountable for amplifying disinformation and misinformation, should bear responsibility. He advocated for the implementation of robust regulatory frameworks to monitor and curb the spread of false information while preserving freedom of expression.

He urged social media platforms to prioritize the integrity of information above profit motives. Mohammed emphasized the importance of taking proactive measures to detect and remove harmful content from their platforms.

A narrow win for Liverpool

The Villans are pretty stable in mid-table. Still, they need a result against the Gunners to improve their standings on the log.

The Gunners have a lot to lose if they fail to beat the side they have beaten in three of the past four meetings. Therefore, it is just reasonable to back the visitors in this Aston Villa Women vs Arsenal Women predictions piece.

It looks like a game between a solid attack and a poor defence. If we take a look at the history between the two teams, a first-half of goals could happen.
