Reps Speaker: The quest by Northern minorities

                                                       Dogara and Gbajabiamila
It is no longer news that the 2015 general elections has united Nigerians especially northerners, who had never voted in the same pattern. For the first time since independence, northern Christians and Muslims voted perhaps for the same party and presidential candidate. Some of us (northern Muslims) had given up hope of seeing a united north as envisioned by the late sage, Sir Ahmadu Bello, the Sardauna of Sokoto. However, the 2015 elections has rekindled our hope that in our life time, Sardauna‘s dreams is a reality.
Muhammudu Buhari’s goodwill united northerners. This is why Engineer Buba Galadima, Senator Saidu Dansadau and many other people have voiced their concerns over attempts to scheme out northern Christians from holding one of the presiding positions of the National Assembly.

I’m Not Afraid Of Buhari Government- Ifeanyi Uba

The managing director and chief executive officer of Capital Oil and Gas Nigeria Limited, Ifeanyi Ubah, has attributed his gesture to release 13 million litres of fuel into the Nigerian market as his own contribution to the economic development of Nigeria.

In an interview monitored by anambrariansnews on Channels TV this morning, May 26, the former governorship aspirant in Anambra State faulted the decision of his colleagues in the Oil Marketers Association of Nigeria to embark on strike without adequately consulting him as a founding and executive member of the association.

Ubah said: “My concern was more about the welfare of Nigerians and the fact that many people were dying. We had to rescue MTN yesterday if not they would have shut down completely by now. We also had to rescue 13 hospitals because patients were dying.”

He also dismissed suggestions by some people that the action he took was political in order to avoid the new government of Muhammadu Buhari, beaming its searchlight on him.
