Dear @channelstv@ARISEtv@tvcnewsng@NTANewsNow, please when next you go for a media briefing with FCT Minister @GovWike, kindly ask him about the following:
1. Cows taking over roads, now including highways, in Abuja
2. Waste collection and mountains of refuse in various parts of town
3. Swarms of young children, who should be in school, begging at traffic lights and junctions under the supervision of adults sitting under nearby trees.
4. The pandemic of driving “one-way” against traffic.
5. Aggressive street traders, especially the ones selling windscreen wiper blades, who insist on putting their hands on your windscreen.
6. All commercial vehicles, including Keke, that believe that traffic lights don’t apply to them.
Others may have other things to add but it would be good to get answers to these first.
Thank you.
We will provide the website soonest, name of initiative, so you can go in and read, understand the next step InshaAllah
• How to?
• What to?
• When to?
Thanks much for joining in. Replay and listen, your unanswered questions might be answered.
Let me say this here and now, at some point myself, whitey and few others involved will withdraw and take a back sit and allow this thing (Shark tank) to take its cause InshaAllah. Once we have all the structures in place, me personally I’m out 🙏🏾.
I’m happy how much it’s taking shape thus far, may Allah put barakkah in this and may it outlive us all.
The Sultanate received reports of Ramadan crescent sightings from three different locations within Nigeria, and these claims were confirmed by the authorities in the respective areas where the sightings were reported. His Eminence is currently abroad, and an official announcement will soon be made by the Shehu of Borno, who is the deputy president general of the Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs.
