Crowds chanted "Kwankwaso! Kwankwaso! Kwankwaso!" right in front of Gov. Abba Kabir Yusuf, during the new year celebrations in Kano.

Ochacho 😂😂😂😂

@Sdhikrullahi It’s actually an underpass

Unrelated, but that’s how I went to call this 👇🏾bridge in the US, & the white colleague said, “Bridge is built on water, Shittu. This is an overpass.” I said, “I’m sorry. I grew up in Ibadan, and we laughed it off.” Third mainland bridge ✅ This below is an overpass ✅

@jacksonpbn This your statement is based on the false publication by ICPC. They have come out to admit their mistake, you should also retract

Who stole, squandered or looted N71.2billion from the Nigerian Education Loan Fund (NELFUND), meant for student loans? The Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of NELFUND, Mr. Akintunde Sawyerr and his colleagues in the agency and some officials from the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, have plenty questions to answer!

When NELFUND was established, i was a bit skeptical cause in Nigeria, there is always an avenue to cheat the system. However, NELFUND changed my perspective about the system and I’ll offer my unbiased view and understanding about the whole matter #thread

👏🏾👏🏾 Big news for Nasarawa State Uni! @NELFUND MD, Mr. Akintunde Sawyerr @AkintSawyerr , presented a ceremonial cheque of N89.298M to the VC, Prof. Sa'adatu Hassan Liman, for #NelfundStudentLoan. A major boost for students pursuing their dreams with financial support! @nastogo

Following allegations that students in the south-east were excluded from @NELFUND, the management led by CEO @AkintSawyerr has stormed schools across the region to sensitise students of the essence of the programme. Kindly RT @DrJoeAbah @nastogo @segalink @DOlusegun @Iyal_musty

@amasonic Fair point. With NIN and BVN, recovery is certain even if you decide to jakpa.

@nastogo I agree I shouldn't have used the word 'chase'. But my point is we need to have mechanisms to ensure recipients of the scheme pay back so that we don't wait for them to benevolently pay back decades after.

Hopefully we won't have to chase down those who are collecting the loans in same manner 40 years later.

NELFUND will pay her fees for the new session.

Shinning more light on the student loan scheme! Join us tomorrow at 7pm as we delve into the game-changing Students Loan scheme with Mr. Nasir Ayitogo, Head of Media and Public Relations at @NELFUND.

@afrisagacity Was there any judgment in this whole Emirates tussle? Thought it was just an order?

Here’s the Full Gist…Very Interesting! So, today, Episode 3 of the blockbuster movie “The Struggle for the Soul of Kano Emirate” premiered -in Kano and Abuja. The movie features two political gladiators - Current Governor, Abba Yusuf and his the Former Gov, Umar Ganduje. But before we delve deeper, let’s establish the background to the story…. Recall, on the 23rd, Gov Abba Yusuf instructed his loyalists at the Kano state House of Assembly to nullify the law that Ganduje used to remove Emir Sanusi and divide his Emirate into 5, in 2020. Ganduje replaced Emir Sanusi ll with Emir Ado Bayero. The House of Assembly members (abi puppets) did as instructed. They passed a new law that removed Emir Bayero, reinstated Emir Sanusi, and shut down the other 4 Emirates. While his dethronement was going on, Emir Bayero was in Ogun state for an official visit - more like the the same drama that happened in July, 1975 when Murtala Muhammed overthrew Gowon while he was attending OAU summit in Kampala. But from Ogun state, Emir Ado Bayero was actively playing the game. With Ganduje’s influence, he quickly approached the Federal High Court in Kano. And they “arranged” one judgement that ordered Gov Abba Yusuf and his govt not to enforce the new Emirate Council Law.
