I've interviewed presidents, governors, generals, activists and politicians. But sometimes it's the interviews with the families left carrying the emotional burden that stay with you.

A few days ago, I interviewed the lawyer Asiya El-Rufai, wife of former Kaduna state governor, Nasir El-Rufai. She spoke with the precision of a legal expert and the pain of a spouse.

She didn't ask me to defend her husband. She didn't ask Nigerians to take sides. She spoke instead - quietly but powerfully - about constitutional rights, due process, access to lawyers and doctors, and the emotional toll prolonged detention takes on a family.

It reminded me that behind every politically charged courtroom battle is a human story.

Whatever anyone thinks of Nasir El-Rufai politically, one truth remains: the rule of law only has meaning when it protects people whose politics we may disagree with. That is why due process is not a favour. It is the foundation of democracy.

Power is temporary. The legal precedents we tolerate today may become the standards - and the nightmare - we all live under tomorrow.

A lot of mothers have been left to carry the burden of raising their children while their fathers are alive, yet absent in responsibility, weak in character and selfish in conduct.

May Allah continue to provide for such mothers, ease their struggles and grant their children success that will one day wipe away their tears.

Wallahi, if you hear what others are going through, you’d realize how much you’ve been underappreciating Allah’s blessings around you.

Lord please forgive me for all the times I have been ungrateful.

In Islam, Don’t romanticize struggle. Pray for ease, pray for abundance, pray for halal wealth. Allah is Al-Razzaq for all reasons.

As much as we want security, let’s be careful not to profile innocent people. Except when evidence says otherwise, NEVER assume every Fulani you see is a bandit o. This will escalate secondary retaliation, keeping us in the vicious circle of reprisal attacks for a long time. Let’s be guided 🙏

[Adam Y.A @Adam_YA_]

Not every Fulani man is a bandit.

Just like not every Igbo man is a fraudster.
Not every Yoruba man is a ritualist.

Crime has no tribe.

Honestly, I support the arrest and deployment of all these street beggars. If you're a northerner/muslim and you pass them in almost all the southern states, you'd feel ashame. This is something that Islam has condemned and we must also condemn it. Let them go back to their states and let their governors cook them and eat, if they can't cater for them.

[Abdul Vibes @ab_chikaire]

No, yall treated the crisis in the North as “northern problem” and it is finally happening to you down south.

[Abdulbaqi Ahmad Muhammad @ahmaddeenaja]

Honestly, you don’t see videos like this go viral often… but this one really should.

A little girl reciting the Qur’an so smoothly, it’s honestly impressive to watch.

Don’t just scroll past… take a second and make a small dua for her, may Allah make it easy for her to finish her memorization
