Era of civil disturbance during Eld prayers gone in Oyo – Gov Makinde

Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State has declared that the era of brigandage, civil disturbance, and violence at the Ibadan Eid ground is over.

Makinde made this declaration on Sunday in Ibadan, the state capital, while addressing the Muslim faithful, including Islamic clerics, traditional rulers, and political officeholders who visited his residence.

Among those in attendance were Deputy Governor Abdulraheem Adebayo Lawal and the Otun Olubadan of Ibadanland and former governor of the state, Rashidi Adewolu Ladoja.

Addressing the gathering, Makinde said: “Let me take this opportunity to reflect on the past. When we cast our minds back to 2007, we can all see how much has changed since then. Today, people from different political parties attend prayers at the Eid ground together and come to greet me as governor.

“We used to have a different situation in Oyo State back then. Before Eid, you would hear people say that certain individuals should not attend.

“But today, because we have peace in Oyo State, we are witnessing development and peaceful co-existence, and we are committed to sustaining these gains.

“We have seen the consequences of those difficult periods, and we can now compare them with the present. When we foster unity and live in peace, development and progress naturally follow. That is what we are experiencing in Oyo State today.”

Wisconsin Supreme Court Election: Elon Musk gives reason Americans should vote for Brad Schimel

United States tech billionaire Elon Musk has explained why Americans should vote for Brad Schimel in the Wisconsin Supreme Court election.

In a statement on his X account on Sunday, Musk urged the American people to elect Schimel to prevent the Democrats from flipping the House and blocking President Donald Trump’s administration reforms.

“Vote for Superjudge Brad Schimel in Wisconsin on Tuesday!!

“The Republican House majority is razor-thin, and the Democrats want to redraw Wisconsin districts to flip the House and stop government reforms.

“It’s super important to vote for Superjudge,” he stated on X.

It should be recalled that Musk, who is an adviser to Trump and a leading figure at the Department of Government Efficiency, had previously expressed his support for Schimel’s candidacy in the 2025 Wisconsin Supreme Court election.

Musk has also pledged million-dollar contributions to appreciate those who supported Schimel.

DAILY POST reports that Schimel is set to contest the Wisconsin Supreme Court election against Susan Crawford on 1 April 2025.

‘Too late to buy character you lack’ – Wike’s aide knocks Atiku again

Lere Olayinka, Senior Special Assistant on Public Communications and Social Media to the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, has stated that it is too late for former Vice President Atiku Abubakar to develop the character and integrity he has lacked since birth. He was responding to a statement from the Atiku Media Office, which
‘Too late to buy character you lack’ – Wike’s aide knocks Atiku again

Lere Olayinka, Senior Special Assistant on Public Communications and Social Media to the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, has stated that it is too late for former Vice President Atiku Abubakar to develop the character and integrity he has lacked since birth.

He was responding to a statement from the Atiku Media Office, which claimed that character was the reason the Peoples Democratic Party committee’s decision on selecting its vice-presidential candidate for the 2023 election was rejected.

In a signed statement, Olayinka said: “One of the reasons Wike initially rejected Atiku’s offer to be his running mate was his less-than-impressive character and integrity rating, until he was persuaded otherwise.

“And this, Atiku demonstrated when he rejected the decision of the party committee set up to choose his running mate, despite assuring everyone that the committee’s decision would be binding.

“Now, after his lie that he chose his running mate based on the committee report that placed the former Governor of Delta State, Dr Ifeanyi Okowa, as the number one, was exposed, he is now sermonising about character and integrity, qualities he himself lacks.

“It is ironic that the same Atiku, whom his former boss described as a ‘blatant and shameless liar,’ is now talking about character.

“For the record, Obasanjo stated in his book My Watch: ‘What I did not know, which came out glaringly later, was his parental background, which was somewhat shadowy; his propensity for corruption; his tendency to disloyalty; his inability to consistently tell and adhere to the truth; a propensity for poor judgement; his belief in and reliance on marabouts; his lack of transparency; his trust in money to buy his way out of all issues; and his readiness to sacrifice morality, integrity, propriety, truth, and national interest for self and selfish interest.’ To this day, Atiku has not refuted what his former boss said about him.

“Unlike Atiku, Wike does not conceal or misrepresent his stance on issues. He is not one to post a tweet on major issues and then hastily delete it. He was transparent about his position on the 2023 election, and he will be transparent about his position in 2027.

“It is Atiku who should begin to be truthful and reliable, especially now that he is older, because not everything should be about a desperate pursuit of the presidency.”

Alhaji Aminu Lawan, the Chief Imam of Umuahia Central Mosque, has urged Muslim faithful and all Nigerians to use the Eid-El Fitr celebration to demonstrate love and care for one another, regardless of religious differences.

He made this appeal while officiating the Eid prayer at Umuahia Township Stadium, which was attended by a large number of Muslim worshippers.

The Imam stated that the period should be used to pray for the peace, unity, and progress of the country and its leaders. He described the celebration as a time for sober reflection, emphasising the importance of peace, tolerance, and mutual respect for national development.

Alhaji Yaro Danladi, the Sariki Hausawa of Abia State, who described the event as one of the pillars of Islam, urged the faithful to emulate the life of Holy Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).
