Sometimes, I think Tinubu was personally sent to come after my life. This is starting to feel personal.
Every time I think I’m making progress, the price of something skyrockets and wipes out whatever gains I’ve made.
We just buried a young boy who was killed in his own home, inside his room, in the middle of the night by yet another case of trigger-happy soldiers who had no right to be there and no justification for what they did.
@HQNigerianArmy — this has to stop!

TRIBUTE TO MY BOSS, MENTOR, AND ROLE MODEL
I wish to express my profound gratitude to my boss, mentor and role model, the Governor of Kaduna, His Excellency, Senator Uba Sani, for his exceptional kindness, generosity, and unwavering support. Words are insufficient to fully convey how deeply honoured and grateful I am for taking time to represent me as my Wakili at my wedding fatiha. I do not take any of this for granted. His presence alone carried immense meaning, and his show of support has left an indelible mark on my life.
Despite the demands of his very busy schedule which I am well privy of as one of his close aides, His Excellency graciously made time to honour my occasion. This rare privilege is one I will cherish for a lifetime. Since coming under his leadership and mentorship, my life has experienced remarkable growth. I have learned invaluable lessons; far more than I ever imagined and I remain eternally grateful for the guidance, trust, and opportunities he has extended to me.
May Almighty Allah continue to bless him abundantly, elevate him continually, and replenish him in all ramifications as he continues to lead Kaduna State with inclusivity. May his good heart and generosity be rewarded endlessly. He remains my leader, my mentor, and my role model, and I reaffirm my unwavering loyalty and deep respect to him. Thank you sir, H.E @UbaSaniUS

Special Assistant, Strategic Communications to the Governor of Kaduna State
Wherever he goes, Governor @ubasanius is met with warm recognition for his efforts in driving progress across Kaduna State through leadership that includes everyone. This was the warm welcome in Romi/Karatudu at the groundbreaking of a new road project.
#WorkingForKaduna
The people have embraced a leader who has responded to their long-held hopes.
That leader is Gov. @ubasanius
This was clear in Zangon Kataf LGA, the Governor received a warm reception during the commissioning of a major road linking two local governments.
#WorkingForKaduna
To be honest, Gov. @ubasanius enjoys strong grassroots support and warm receptions wherever he goes.
Maybe because he is committed to public service, focused on delivering real progress for the people. His visit to Pambegua, Kubau LGA, shows this clearly.

Burna Boy had his emotions spiked after hearing about the mass shooting that destroyed a 2-year-old's birthday party last weekend in Stockton, California and now he's stepping up for all 4 of the deceased victims. 🙏

The Least You Can Do As A Journalist Is Proper Research Before Making Such Posts. I Understand You May Be Trying To Please Certain Interests, But At Least Present The Facts Correctly.
The Woman In Question Has Since Publicly Apologized For Her Unfounded Remarks, Sought Forgiveness, And The Governor Being Magnanimous, Graciously Forgave Her. He’s Mainly Focused On Working For The Good Of Kaduna And Won’t Be Distracted.
The celebration of our people in Birnin Gwari at the return of peace and the revival of economic activities is a clear testament to the success of the Kaduna Peace Model. Through sustained collaboration with our security agencies, traditional leaders, and community stakeholders, we have worked tirelessly to restore safety and stability. This progress strengthens our resolve to secure every community, enhance livelihoods, and ensure that the people of Kaduna State continue to live, work, and thrive in peace.
[TRIBUTE BY UBA SANI] REMEMBERING GANI FAWEHINMI: MY MENTOR, MY HERO
In the early hours of September 5, 2009, Nigeria and indeed the entire continent of Africa lost a titan, a man whose life was a testament to courage, unwavering principle, and indefatigable commitment to justice and democracy. Chief Abdulganiyu “Gani” Oyesola Fawehinmi, GCON, SAN, passed into the annals of history, leaving behind a legacy that continues to inspire generations. His departure was not just the loss of a legal luminary or a pro-democracy crusader; it was the loss of a father figure, a teacher, and a mentor who transformed the lives of many, including my own.
I first met Chief Gani Fawehinmi in a Nigeria shackled by military authoritarianism, a nation gasping under the weight of repression, censorship, and the truncation of fundamental freedoms. At a time when fear sought to suffocate hope, Chief Fawehinmi emerged as a beacon of fearless resistance, an unwavering voice in the wilderness. It was during the fraught aftermath of the June 12, 1993, presidential election, a watershed moment when the popular mandate of Chief MKO Abiola was cruelly annulled, that I encountered the formidable spirit of Chief Fawehinmi.
The military junta’s cynical efforts to tribalise the struggle and cast the fight for democracy as a parochial Yoruba cause were all-too evident and divisive. Yet, Chief Fawehinmi’s vision was pan-Nigerian, and his commitment to justice transcended all ethnic and regional divides. And of course, Chief M.K.O Abiola’s June 12, 1993 mandate was pan-Nigerian.
As a young man from Northern Nigeria, vocally opposing the annulment and deeply invested in the struggle for democracy, I found in Chief Gani Fawehinmi not just a comrade but a mentor who treated me with the warmth of a father and the wisdom of a seasoned General. His home in Lagos became my second sanctuary, where I happily shared a room with Comrade Femi Aborisade, one of his closest confidants, and where the seeds of my civil rights activism and consciousness, already sown during my days as a students’ union leader, were fertilized and hence deep-rooted. It was in those hallowed chambers that I drank deeply from his well of knowledge, courage, and unyielding faith in justice.
Chief Gani Fawehinmi was more than a lawyer; he was the “Senior Advocate of the Masses,” a relentless champion for the downtrodden, and an indomitable scourge of military dictators. His legal advocacy was a revolution in itself, demonstrating that law, wielded with determination, creativity, and consistency, could become a potent instrument of social and political engineering. In an era when many in the legal profession chose silence or complicity, Chief Fawehinmi stood firm, often misunderstood & isolated by colleagues who failed to grasp the breadth of his vision. But he never faltered. For him, self-help was not an option, and the wheel of justice, though often slow, was inexorable.
His life was marked by sacrifices that few could endure. The prison cell was a recurring reality: his home away from home; yet even incarceration could not break his spirit. Chief Fawehinmi’s courage in the face of oppression became a rallying cry for millions. He led the Joint Action Committee of Nigeria (JACON), a coalition of pro-democracy groups that waged a relentless battle against military authoritarianism. I was honoured to serve as National Vice Chairman of JACON, working closely with him to expand the struggle into Northern Nigeria and forge a united front against dictatorship.
His patriotism was profound and all-encompassing. Chief Fawehinmi’s humanitarian vision was not confined to any one tribe or region but embraced the entire Nigerian nation. Among his many legacies was a scholarship scheme that reached brilliant but indigent students across Nigeria. I had the privilege of working with him to extend this initiative to Northern Nigeria, where educational deprivation was most acute
