RUSSIA’s foreign minister has accused NATO of fighting a proxy war by supplying military aid to Ukraine, as defence ministers gathered in Germany for US-hosted talks on supporting Ukraine through what one US general called a “very critical” few weeks. Sergei Lavrov told Russian state media: “NATO, in essence, is engaged in a war with Russia through a proxy and is arming that proxy. War means war.” He also warned that the risks of nuclear conflict were now “considerable” – a claim Ukraine’s foreign minister, Dmytro Kuleba, said showed Moscow had lost its “last hope to scare the world off…

THE entry of a Catholic priest, Rev. Fr. Hyacinth Iormem Alia, into the race for the seat of governor in Benue State has indeed excited many. Being a deeply religious society, the Benue State people are optimistic that the cleric will emerge victorious and he will truly turn around the place. Of course, Fr. Alia is the only odd one among the lot aspiring to be governor. They are all politicians who have tasted one political office or the other except Fr. Alia who is not known for partisan politics. He has spent 30 years in priesthood. He started in…
By Alleh Okpeh Alleh IN 1976, during one of the state creation exercises of the then military regime, Benue State was created along with others. By then, there were three major ethnic nationalities – Idoma, Tiv and Igala – with others such as Jukun, Etulo, Hausa in the Tiv territory, and Idoma sub-ethnic groups such as Akweya or Akpa, Igede, Ufia or Utonkon and Igbo. Then there is the Bassa in the Igala area. Subsequently, in furtherance of creating and readjusting state boundaries, the Igala which was then the second most populous ethnic group in the state, was excised and…
By Alex Batubo INSECURITY is a major problem that we all face, from theft, burglary to kidnapping and banditry. This report makes a serious attempt to explain the underlying causes for this problem, specifically in Zamfara State. Once we understand the reasons for the increase in insecurity we may begin to consider how to address the problem. In many cases the nature of the problem is misunderstood. The report is clear that all the evidence shows that the problem is rooted in disputes over land use between the farming and herder communities. It is not a question of criminals/bandits/terrorists invading…
By Amos Aar AN aspirant in the 2023 governorship race in Benue State on the platform of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Engr. Ben Akaakar, has defied the consensus arrangement recently reached by the party’s stakeholders in the Tiv-speaking area to go on with his aspiration. Engr. Akaakar made this known on Sunday when he featured on Brothers FM, Makurdi, during an interactive programme, ‘Political Conversation’, to inform Benue people about his policies and programmes of action for the development of the state if elected into office. Asked why he was still in the race after the PDP consensus that…
WHEN a government like that of Muhammadu Buhari, President and Commander-in-Chief of the Nigerian Armed Forces, is doing very well, it is manifestly immoral for a Bishop to divert its attention, especially with unsolicited homilies. That is the problem I have with Bishop Matthew Hassan Kukah of the Sokoto Catholic Diocese. He has this strategy of waiting until the Easter period of salvation to release nuclear-powered inter-continental missiles against the Buhari Presidency as if he were the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) putting Russia in its sight. In the 2021 Easter Buhari-Kukah war, I had uncritically taken sides with the…

THE Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions (NASU) on Friday walked out of a meeting of the Renegotiation Committee of the Federal Government/NASU Agreement because of what the union described as “non-commitment and nonchalant attitude to the renegotiation” process by federal government team. NASU, while expressing its revulsion and shock at the attitude of the government, stated that at a time when every effort ought to be made to resolve the lingering crisis in the university system for students to return to the classroom, the government team was bent on trivialising the union’s Memorandum of Demand (MOD) by…
Governor Babagana Zulum of Borno on Friday heaped praises on the International Organisation for Migration (IOM) for its humanitarian response in the North-East. Zulum made this known when the IOM Chief of Mission to Nigeria, Mr Celestin Frantz, paid him a farewell visit at the Government House in Maiduguri. Represented by his Chief of Staff, Prof. Isa Husseini, the governor lauded Frantz for managing humanitarian crisis in the zone creditably in his six years in Nigeria. “I appreciate IOM efforts in the area of shelter provision to IDPs, a lot have been achieved. I appeal for more support in the…
