In the same light , last year, someone launched a waqf, together with a cd set for their Complete Quranic recitation. It was an open donation, and the BORNO STATE GOVERNMENT donated either a hundred million Naira or more.
I might be wrong, but
Hello Lola, I am a Muslim, and our spiritual tradition has a very deep approach to raising children. I want to share some tips from our scholars that will be beneficial to you regardless of your faith.
First of all, our theology teaches the concept of Fitrah. This means that every child is born with a pure heart. At six years old, she is not a criminal mastermind. She does not have a wicked soul.
If she doesn’t have all these, then what is happening? The truth is that she is just lacking impulse control and testing boundaries. By this, if you look at her as a manipulator, you will fight her. However, if you look at her as a pure soul making mistakes, you will be able to guide her.
Secondly, for every problem anyone faces today, it has been solved in history. The only problem is how to locate them.
A classical scholar named Al-Ghazali wrote about child psychology over 900 years ago in his famous book “Ihya Ulum al-Din.” In his section on disciplining children, he gave a practical rule I want you to adopt going forward.
He advised that parents should never push a child into a corner where they are forced to lie. When you ask a question you already know the answer to, her survival instinct kicks in. She cries and she lies to defend herself because she is scared of you. Stop interrogating her. Just look at her and state the fact. Say, I know you took this, and we are going to return it right now.
Again, another scholar and sociologist Ibn Khaldun addressed this exact behavior in his masterpiece titled: “Al-Muqaddimah.” He warned that when a child is raised with harsh punishment, they learn deceit, trickery, and lying to protect themselves. This is why she is covering her tracks and crying to manipulate you. The fear of a harsh reaction is making her a better liar.
Lola, do not attach a label to her. Do not ever call her a thief. If you attack her identity instead of her action, she will internalize it and grow into that dark label. Tell her the action is wrong but protect her dignity.
Make her return the item. Do not fall for the tears. Hold her hand, walk her back to wherever she took it from, and make her hand it back and apologize. The discomfort of returning a stolen item teaches a much better lesson than beating her will ever do.
Finally, I don’t know if you are a Muslim, but never underestimate the power of your own words. In our faith, we believe the prayer of a parent for a child goes straight to God without any barrier. Pray over her. Pray for her heart to be content and for her character to be straight.
Keep doing this consistently and the habit will break.
Allah knows best.
The coordinated attack by gunmen that invaded Gwana district in Alkaleri LGA of Bauchi state leading to the killing of at least 4 persons and abduction of dozens in the evening of Friday had also triggered mass displacement. Unspecified number of women and girls have also been abducted.
The attack is vicious and demonstrate a contemptible disregard for human life.
This deplorable attack took place at a time when the villagers were breaking their fast during the holy month of Ramadan and demonstrates escalating security crisis that is making life a hell for rural communities.
This crisis is expanding and getting out of hand.
The Nigerian authorities must do more to protect lives of the people and bring the suspected perpetrators of all such attacks to justice.

The formalities are:
Step 1: Take a deep breath
Step 2: Close the app
Step 3: Wait for maturity
The money is doing exactly what you asked it to do: staying away from you 😌
You will hire this man to defend your rights in court and get you justice and the whole time (by his own admission in this post), he's busy trying to be "humble and respectful" to the opposing lawyer for "life changing opportunities"

UPDATE: ICPC takes former Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai into custody over the failed N11.1bn Joint Venture Kaduna light rail project
El-Rufai, who was initially arrested by DSS operatives shortly after his release from the EFCC, landed in ICPC custody over a pending trial before the Federal High Court, Kaduna Division, regarding the failed N11.1bn Joint Venture Kaduna light rail project.
According to the ICPC, the money was collected by a JV partner during El-Rufai’s administration, but the project wasn't executed, while also adding that part of the money (N1.373 billion) was diverted into a private account during the administration of former Governor Nasir El-Rufai.
The anti-graft commission said that between December 2016 and January 2017, the then-governor approved the payment of N11.1 billion to the entity, which was not formally incorporated by the CAC until 10 May 2017. From the N11.1 billion paid to Mrts JV Nigeria’s account domiciled with Sterling Bank, N1.373 billion was allegedly diverted into a private account tracked down by ICPC.
Following an application by the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) last year, the Federal High Court, Kaduna Division, had temporarily ordered the forfeiture of N1,373,180,510.07, which was part of the cash for the failed Kaduna light rail project.

APC National Chairman Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda Visits Sheikh Aminu Ibrahim Daurawa, Pledges Full University Sponsorship for 15 ZamZam College Students
The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Professor Nentawe Yilwatda, on Tuesday paid a courtesy visit to renowned Islamic scholar, Sheikh Aminu Ibrahim Daurawa, at ZamZam International College in Kano State.
In a significant gesture of support for education, Prof. Yilwatda announced that he will personally sponsor fifteen (15) outstanding students of the college through their university education. The sponsorship will cover tuition, accommodation, and other essential expenses for the entire duration of their undergraduate studies once they complete their secondary education at ZamZam International College.
The meeting focused on strengthening collaboration between the APC and religious leaders across Nigeria to promote unity, peace, and national development. Both leaders explored ways to deepen partnerships that align with the party’s Renewed Hope Agenda and foster greater harmony between political and religious institutions in the country.
The young boy boarded a vehicle with some persons going to Kenyi, a town along Kwoi-Abuja rd in Kaduna.
He narrated that,two years ago he was kidnapped alongside his father & siblings,sadly his father & his elder brother were ki*lled. Yesterday,Saturday he was released & sent..
A young man in Eket is nurs!ng serious !njuries after he was allegedly Gangéd-b£aten by his girlfriend and four of her friends over a messy love triangle.
According to the sources, the young man who should be in his early 20's had been dating a young lady but secretly started dating one of her "close friends". Trøuble started when his main girlfriend who had traveled later returned home for festivities only to discover that her boyfriend was hobnobbing with her own friend. Añgry and hürt, she reportedly plotted to set him up and teach him a pa!nful lesson.
A Nigerian man seeks companionship, he does not ask himself if he is kind enough, if he is interesting enough. He does not care about emotional availability, neither does he care about personal growth. What does he do? He calculates whether his account balance has crossed some invisible threshold that makes him deserving of companionship.
It is why brothers in their 20s and 30s with decent jobs and good characters still insist they are "not ready" for a relationship. Not ready, they mean, to be the walking ATM they've been conditioned to become. By the time they finally "achieve," they've lost the capacity for stillness. They can sit in boardrooms for hours but cannot sit with a partner for thirty minutes without their minds wandering to the next transaction or the next proof of worth. Small talk becomes an unbearable and inefficient use of resources. Apologies become obsolete when lavish gestures can purchase peace. After all, "na wetin women like be this" is the script etched into their consciousness.
A Nigerian woman seeks companionship, she does not ask if "he works," instead she asks, "does he have money?" One question honors process; the other worships outcome and remains strategically incurious about provenance. She says she's being realistic. Clear-eyed about how the world actually works, not how it pretends to work in romance novel. But when did "clear-eyed" become indistinguishable from "deliberately blind to certain things I'd rather not see?" When did assessing partnership potential become inseparable from calculating financial insurance against her own vulnerability?
Her affection then, becomes calibrated to a cash flow. Pragmatism metastasizes into a shield against intimacy, against the" terrifying" and "reckless" work of actually knowing and being known.
Our dating culture is mostly an elaborate performance of mutual extraction. Both genders, diminished. Both complicit in a system of leveraged buyouts.
Everyone gets exactly what they negotiated for, and no one gets what they actually need. A genuinely exhausting way of life.
most of us didn’t go to rich & posh schools as kids. Our mothers made sure we had breakfast before leaving home, just as our fathers were up as early to prepare for the hustle that puts food on the table & take care of the family, consideration is vital. Not being lazy & entitled
In the early 1970s, a Nigerian student, Mudashiru Ayeni, believed he had invented a battery-powered robot office assistant and asked to personally demonstrate it to the head of state, Yakubu Gowon. He was sent to a psychiatrist instead.
According to a 1971 feature story by TRUST magazine:
▶️Ayeni made eight visits to the hospital before the psychiatrist certified him to be of sound mind.
▶️The 20-year-old student then wrote to his school principal about the role young Africans were expected to play in the continent’s development.
▶️This time, he was banned from classes and forced to quit school entirely.
▶️Ayeni later reached out to Nigeria’s Federal Commissioner of Communications, Aminu Kano, who encouraged him and gave him a renewed sense of purpose.
▶️How his robot worked: at the press of a button, it told the caller whether the boss was busy, available, or away from the office.
▶️At the time the story was published, Ayeni said several businessmen had already expressed interest in his invention.
