 THE BRUTAL MURDER OF HANIFA ABUBAKAR, A SAD COMMENTARY FOR NIGERIA

Hanifa Abubakar

I am deeply traumatized by the news of the killing of 5 year old, innocent Hanifa Abubakar allegedly by the proprietor of her school- Noble Kids Nursery and Primary School, Kawana, Kano State, Mr Abdulmalik Tanko.

The poor under-aged girl was said to have been killed by the culprit with rat poison and buried in a shallow grave by the culprit who kidnapped her for a ransom.

I am shocked at the level of wickedness and inhumanity being displayed by some elements in our contemporary society today and as a mother, I feel the grief and pains of the mother of the deceased little innocent girl and I have been unable to sleep since the news broke out.

I charge the Kano State Government and all other  relevant agencies to ensure that the perpetrator of this heinous act and indeed all his collaborators are brought to book  as urgently as possible to serve as a deterrent to others.

This is a situation where a child was put in the care of the culprit in his school and her school fees were being paid by her parents only to be allegedly murdered brutally by the same person in whose trust the parents put their child. A child who was only 5 years and did no wrong. This ugly incident suggests that the culprit opened that school as a means to lure people to murder to satisfy his killer urge.

I advise the State House of Assembly of the states of the Federation to amend their relevant criminals laws to provide for a speedy time line for the prosecution and conclusion of criminal cases across the country because it has been observed that most of these criminals are on bail and their trials are protracting with some of them being abandoned after long delays thereby giving opportunity to criminals to continue to evade Justice. 

I pray for the peaceful repose of the innocent soul of Hanifa and pray God to grant the parents and siblings the fortitude to bear the loss.

HOW TO BE A WISE WOMAN

 HOW TO BE A WISE WOMAN

Amarachi Edeh

1. A wise woman has secrets:

You can't be too naked with your love, social or spiritual life and expect dignity. Not everyone should know what you are going through. Be a self-contained lady.

2. A wise woman has surprises:

There is beauty in a surprise. Don't run around announcing things that are not yet..... It only destroys their beauty. And when they fail you will suffer unnecessary shame. Be a self-controlled lady.

3.  A wise woman is unpredictable :

People should know there is both yes and no in your mouth. Your moves and words shouldn't be too obvious. Be a deep lady. 

4.  A wise woman has meaningful connections :

You can't be a friend to everyone and have focus. You can't be the organiser in every social activity and be a productive woman. Love all but a close friend of a few!

5.  A wise woman does less of a girl talk :

You can't have too much talk and work at the same time. Cheap talks only lead to empty gossips! A gossiping woman is a shallow woman. 

6. A wise woman has time for herself :

You can't understand yourself better until you create time for yourself. 

Create time to see your weaknesses and work on them. Have time for self correction lady. 

7. A wise woman interacts with God:

You cannot have the highest level of wisdom until you interact with its source. Rare breeds of women are found here.... at the feet of JESUS.

Give God time ladies!
