Imagine arguing with someone who saw that Jeremiah Omoto video and believed that “god” spoke to Jeremiah Omoto in a Nigerian accent resembling that Channels TV guy.
Don’t waste your time. Go and eat amala instead
@JaafarSJaafar His son lives in Katampe extension on Attahiru Jega crescent , been a nuisance since he moved into the neighborhood, often throwing parties , disturbing neighbors with loud music , with his DSS gangster often releasing bullets in the air ..it’s quite despicable..
The former DG of SSS, Yusuf Magaji Bichi, has turned an otherwise elite, professionally-run service into a graveyard of career aspirations, an orchard of nepotism and an armed corps of 40 Blantyre Crescent. He lowered the recruitment bar, removed multi-layer screening process to recruit personnel who couldn’t even pass Halogen Security aptitude test.
Bichi arguably recruited the highest number of Cotonou “graduates” into the service. He willfully extended the tenure of some retired directors in his good book for years, killing the ambitions of the aspiring directors.
He allowed his wife to lord over the service, influencing recruitment, promotion and discipline. As a peasant socialite and novo riche, she always oppressed people with a superfluity of everything at the expense of public funds. She moved around in a long motorcade with dozens of Tavor-wielding personnel, harassing motorists. She was a stormy petrel who was majorly in the news for either assaulting her tailor for failing to meet a deadline or picking a fight with opposition politicians.
His impudent, spoiled brat son shrugged off public criticism to gleefully display a fleet of luxury cars on social media. At the expense of public funds, he has a number SSS operatives giving him cover at football arena, nightclub and political campaign rallies.
The new DG should review the cases of detainees, be professional in the discharge of his duty and keep his family away from meddling in the affairs of the service. The service does not only need a factory reset but flushing!
From the heavens to a souk in Kano; from the dorms in Ahmadu Bello University to a chemist shop in Kurmi; from domestic disputes to grand conspiracies; ordinary seeming human beings mingle with ghosts, angels and devils.
Nana aims to craft stories that feel familiar yet imbued with the unexpected. She also indulges in a love for chocolate.
Cover reveal and a specific release date will be announced shortly.
