April 18, 2014

Governor Emmanuel Uduaghan of Delta state has advised Nigerians wherever they may be to purge themselves of the old prejudices that have kept the country away from rapid progress in peace and unity.
He said in a message to Christians and Nigerians today as they celebrate Easter that the best time for Nigerians to purge themselves of those burdens that have impeded the nation’s progress as a people over the years is now.
He called on them to continually demonstrate love in its fullness not only to one another but also to the country.
Governor Uduaghan insisted that Nigerians should drop all types of attitudes that seek to hinder peace and unity of the country.
According to him, Easter offers ample opportunity for Nigerians to reflect on renewal and sacrifice, saying that this is the time for them to look at old challenges in new ways as well as to strengthen their faith in God.
“The lessons of peace, love, selflessness and sacrifice for the common good must be imbibed by all Nigerians for national progress. I wish to task Christian and Muslim leaders to preach harmony, peace and co-existence for the good of all.”
Dr. Uduaghan appealed to all Deltans and all Nigerians to continue to live together in peaceful co-existence and harmony, devoid of bitterness, divisiveness and intolerance.
He recommended mutual understanding, love and respect even as he said: “Our common progress lies in peaceful existence anchored on friendship and good neighbourliness.”
He restated his administration’s commitment to making life better for all citizens and residents of Delta State, expressing confidence that on-going projects will be completed before the end of his tenure.

April 16, 2014

Members of the deadly Boko Haram “asked us to count ourselves,” one of the female students who escaped after being abducted at the Government Girls’ Secondary School in Chibok Local Government Area of Borno State has said.
The student, named Hajara, who recounted her ordeal in the hands of the Boko Haram abdoctors before she escaped said that the number of students abducted were 243.
She said that their abductors were over one hundred, adding that only about 80 of them were able to jump off the broken down truck in which they were being transported across a bush and ran to safety.
The students were abducted on Monday evening by heavily armed Boko Haram Islamists.
The girls were said to have fled when a truck conveying them to Boko Haram camp broke down on the way. The lucky girls reportedly jumped off the broken down truck, escaped into the bush and made their way to safety. The escaped students were said to have scattered in the bush when the vigilante and local hunters found them.
It was learnt that some of them were wounded while others sustained some fractures, as a result of jumping from the high vehicle.
The parents of the escapees thanked God that their children have been rescued, even as they prayed for those who are still with the Boko Haram to come back safely.
“Our prayer is that every father will have his child back,” one of the parents said, adding that his daughter came back sound and healthy but weak stressing.
“Our children told us that when they started running, the insurgents didn’t shoot them. They allowed those who could run to go but those who could not run either as a result of fear or wound are still with them in the bush.”
