  • The Councillor representing Enjema Ward 3 in Ankpa Local Government Area of Kogi State, Nasiru Yahaya, has rehabilitated another borehole in his ward located at Aliboko-Inye in his ward.

    The councillor told Arewa PUNCH that he bore all the expenses of the borehole rehabilitation from his December salary.

    Our correspondent reports that this is the second borehole the Councillor will rehabilitate since his election during the last October 19, local government elections.

    The borehole, which was managed by the community association, broke down about two years ago.

    When contacted after the rehabilitation of the boreholes at Ogane-Inye and Ojuaka-Inye last month, the Councillor sent engineers to Aliboko-Inye to access the level of damage and what it would take to repair it to provide water for that part of his ward, especially for the festive period.

    Mallam Yahaya further explained to Arewa PUNCH that
    the report of the engineers indicated that the plant needed to be serviced and the replacement of the pumping machine along with the reconnection and laying of some broken pipes.

    The councillor immediately released funds for the rehabilitation as soon as he received his salary for December.

    In a remark after the rehabilitation, Mallam Yahaya said that what he was doing was not a show off but to do what he could within his own resources before drawing the attention of the Chairman of Ankpa Local Government , Engineer Ademu Muhammed Yahaya and Governor Ahmed Usman Ododo to the numerous needs of his ward.

    The Gago of Aliboko-Inye, Chief Damale, said his joy knew no bounds as he least expected that the Councillor would respond so quickly to repair works needed for the borehole.

    He vowed that the residents of the area would be vigilant henceforth to protect the borehole from vandals.

    Similarly, APC supporters from the community praised the Councillor for the gesture, saying that he has made them proud.

    They said the rehabilitation of the borehole was an impetus for continued support for the party.

  • OMOH! IT IS 9 YEARS AGO ALREADY🥹

    November 22, 2015, feels just like yesterday. I was just a young junior secondary school student in Akwanga, full of curiosity and a budding interest in politics, both at the national level and Kogi State

    The 2015 Kogi State gubernatorial election was a showdown between Captain Idris Wada and Prince Abubakar Audu ... I still vividly remember catching a glimpse of Prince Audu in 2015 during the APC/AlMakura Gubernatorial Mega Rally in Central Pilot school Akwanga. Even though I couldn’t get close to him because of the heavy security around the VIP canopy, I was confident it was him It was a surreal moment for me, a young boy far from home but already captivated by the politics of Kogi

    Back then, APC was still a relatively new party, but I had already fallen in love with its ideology. As the November 2015 Kogi election drew closer, the political tension in the air was palpable. Social media was buzzing with complaints about the incumbent, Governor Idris Wada, and there was so much hope that Audu would bring the change the people desperately needed

    I closely followed the APC primaries on August 30, 2015. When the results came in, Audu secured 1,009 votes while Yahaya Bello, a surprising new contender, scored 703.... The numbers were impressive, but Audu’s victory felt inevitable... I believed he was the right man for the job, and from my little corner in Akwanga, I prayed for his success

    Fast forward to election day, November 21, 2015. I watched it live on Channels TV as Prince Audu stepped out to cast his vote, dressed elegantly in his signature attire. Excitement filled the air – APC was on the verge of making history in Kogi State But, oh, the struggle of following updates! NEPA’s light was as unreliable as ever, and I had to rely on my trusty Nokia Express Music to stay connected , flipping between Facebook and 2go for live updates... Here, I don't know Twitter yet

    Then came November 22, 2015, the day that began with so much hope but ended in heartbreak. As collation results trickled in, APC was leading, and victory seemed assured . But suddenly, the unthinkable happened. News broke that Prince Abubakar Audu had passed away🥹 "Oh are you sure? This must be fake news,” I thought. Just yesterday, we watched him vote on TV. It couldn’t be true! But as the hours passed, the devastating confirmation came... The man who was on the verge of making history was no more

    That Sunday turned black for Kogi State and Nigeria as a whole. The dream was shattered, and the loss was immeasurable

    Today, nine years later, we still remember Adoja Prince Abubakar Audu for his service, his leadership, and the hope he gave to Kogi people.

    May his soul continue to rest in perfect peace. Ameen

  • BREAKING: The Supreme Court has dismissed the lawsuit filed by several state governments that questioned the constitutionality of the legislation that established the EFCC, ICPC and NFIU.

    The initial lawsuit was filed by the Attorney General of Kogi State, and subsequently, additional states joined in filing comparable lawsuits, with the Attorney-General of the Federation (AGF) named as the sole defendant.
