President Bola Tinubu has said that the past 12 months have been fulfilling for his administration despite the presence of some challenges that are being addressed frontally.

According to the President, his administration has been able to stop Nigeria from bleeding which will propel it to prosperity.

Tinubu spoke when he received a delegation of the Yoruba Leaders of Thought at the State House on Friday, also emphasising that governance must be transformative and must address the critical needs of citizens.

This was disclosed by the President’s Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Ajuri Ngelale, in a statement made available to Channels Television.

“It has been challenging. It has been fulfilling as well. We took over, and we stopped the bleeding. I can say categorically now that Nigeria is no longer bleeding. And it will not bleed to death, but rather will now move to prosperity. That is the promise that I made to you all, and it is also the charge that you gave to me.

“We are managing to swim through the pond. The current is not a good one. We will turn the tide. We are turning the bend. This I assure you. I am being very careful. The worst is over for Nigeria. We will prevail.

I’m Not Connected With Death of Final Year Student, EBSU Lecturer, Prof. Enyi Speaks Out, Calls for Proper Investigation

Amechi Uneke Enyi, a Professor of English Grammar at the Ebonyi State University, Abakaliki who was accused in a viral social media video by the mother of a student of the university, who allegedly committed su***de has said that the death of the student was in no way connected to the course he teaches in the university or his person.

A woman who identified herself as the mother of the deceased student, Favour Ugwu, is seen in a viral video cursing out “Dr. Enyi” and Ebonyi State University for being responsible for her daughter’s death.
“Dr Enyi said he is the best, nobody can teach like him, he should come and carry my daughter who has committed su***de,” she is seen shouting in the video.

However, speaking to newsmen in Abakaliki, Prof. Enyi stated he is aggrieved for being wrongly accused by the woman in the viral video as the death of Ms. Ugwuka has absolutely nothing to do with his course or even academics.
Speaking on the incident the university teacher said:

“I’m Prof A. U. Enyi of the department of English and Literary Studies, Ebonyi State University, Abakaliki. It is unfortunate, it is quite unfortunate that the girl ended the way she ended. I was really shocked when I heard the news.
“It is not true [that her death is related to academic issue], I don’t see how somebody who was not victimized, someone who failed an exam will decide to take her own life. So, the first question one should ask in this circumstance should be, was she victimized”

“And of course, you know that she may not have been the only person who wrote the exam and some [other] people may have failed also, so it is not true and, really that was my first reaction. How could she have decided to take her own life, that is if she actually took her life.

“How could she have decided to take her own life when she was not victimised in the exam?
Speaking on the mother’s accusation, Prof. Enyi said,

“Yes, I got to really know about this student in February, 2024 after we had uploaded our second semester results. And the results were already approved by the school because before we upload results so that students could have access to the result, the school management would have approved the results.
“So the mother called me one night, she said that I was witch-hunting her daughter, that how could her daughter have passed all other courses only to fail my course?

“And when I tried to explain to her the procedure of ascertaining such accusation, she refused listening then I had no choice than to disconnect the call.

“And I didn’t dwell further on it because the university has a process for handling such matters. According to the university rules, the examination does not belong to the lecturer, we had submitted the results, the student scripts, the questions and the marking scheme, so all these are the property of the university and they are all verifiable.
“So, if anyone feels aggrieved, the process of recalling the papers is there. And what such an aggrieved person needs to do is not to threaten my life, telling me that she is from Nsukka and that I will be dealt with.

“I tried telling the mother that she can write a petition against me, she can investigate and then the right process will be followed, a panel could be set up to investigate the allegations and accusations, but she did not listen.

“However, she eventually did come to the university as she had threatened, but I did not even know that she came. I learnt that she was also advised to formally approach the department and the school management. Even the Head of the Department (HOD) who incidentally is also a woman too decided to informally assist her and look into the matter, and the HOD, retrieved her daughter’s script and it was discovered that the late student merely copied a few questions and never answered any of the questions.

“At that point the HOD advised the mother to tell her daughter to re-register the course during the second semester, because the course is a second semester course and that after she (the student) may have registered the course, the department could then approach the lecturer to explore ways the student could be assisted to pass the course. And that was what the HOD advised the mother and that was the last time the HOD heard of the matter, because we are currently writing our first semester examinations so we have not even started the second semester when the deceased student was expected to re-register the course.

“So, it was this morning (Thursday) that the HOD called me to narrate what has happened.
“Meanwhile, this same woman, (obviously after interfacing with the HOD) came to the department and apologized to me, and I told her that there is no way I can victimise a student, and I told her that I never made any demands from her daughter and I barely know the girl. And from the day the exam was written, I never saw her till the results were uploaded. So, what will be my reason to victimise any student? And if there is a case of victimization, there is an established procedure for handling such in the university. There have been instances of people calling for their papers and the recalled paper will be re-marked elsewhere. So that is it.

“For me, once I have uploaded my result, I have concluded with the examination, if you pass, that means you passed. And I don’t think that someone who has passed can be failed, for what reason? And at the end of the day I forgave the mother and told her that if the girl comes back and re-register the course I’ll find way to assist her to pass the course and we both agreed on that.

“And suddenly this morning (Thursday) when she started calling my name, I was wondering what was the connection between my name or the course and a student committing su***de? And what has she been doing in Abakaliki since February that she finished her examination and should be with her parents? And remember that you (the mother) extracted a promise from me that I will help her when she comes back to re-register the second semester course with the caveat that she may not always come to class because she would have left Abakaliki by the time the second semester would commence.

“so it is clear that only the girl can explain what business she was doing in Abakaliki till her unfortunate death. It is very unfortunate, but definitely, her death has nothing to do with that course.”
Reacting to the allegation that the late student committed su***de, the lecturer noted that the allegation should be properly investigated by students, security operatives and journalists.

He said:
“I call on the security people and you journalists to investigate deeper what may have led to her death. There are students who live with her where she lived and they would know her activities and what she has been doing in Abakaliki.
“It is obvious that the woman is bent on destroying me. From the what I have seen of the picture of the copse of the girl, there are noticeable wounds and bruises on the body. So, what is the relation of drinking something and the wounds all over the body?

“Everyone in the department knows that I keep my class register and in every class I call my register in every class and I complete my classes. Like in this semester I have a record of 15 contacts. There is no way I give my examination without completing my content for the over 20 years I have been in this job.

“I feel aggrieved because the woman has refused to find out what happened to her daughter, because she was hellbent on having a pound of flesh from me for no just cause. Why is it that she can not call for a post-mortem or even a autopsy to find out the real cause of her daughter’s death?

POISON IN TRADE ANIMALS AT MANDATE CATTLE MARKET IN KWARA STATE

The Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security hereby alerts the General Public on the outbreak of poison in trade animals which occurred at Mandate Cattle Market, located near College of Arabic and Islamic Legal Studies at Adewole, Ilorin, Kwara State.

According to the report from Kwara State Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, mortality in herd occurred at this market on Saturday, 20th April, 2024 and the outcome of the investigation revealed that animals had grazed on the forage that was fumigated with organophosphate chemical prior to the incident.

The report further stated that clinical signs observed were hypersalivation, weakness, and recumbency. On noticing this, the herders decided to slaughter 7 of the very weakly affected animals for public consumption.

This has public health risks, and the consequences may be very severe in the food chain.

It is important to note however, that there is a Rapid Response Team (RRT) in every state of the Federation, made up of Federal Epidemiology Officer, State Director, Veterinary Services and State Epidemiology Officer, who have been adequately trained by the Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security for emergency situations such as this.

In this particular instance, the RRT in Kwara State in collaboration with the State Government’s task force, swiftly swung into action to trace and confiscate the meat from the slaughtered animal; these were subsequently disposed in an environmentally friendly manner.

The report added that 40 suspected poisoned animals were treated with organophosphate antidotes, and they responded with marked improvement in their health, leading to recovery.

Other actions taken included the following:

· Cleaning and disinfection of the abattoir that the carcasses were dressed.

· Creation of public awareness on the danger of consuming the meat from affected slaughter animals was issued.

· Collection of blood and tissue samples for laboratory testing and analysis.

To avert the future occurrence of this bad and hazardous agricultural practice, the Ministry wishes to inform the General Public that:

i. There is danger in consuming unwholesome meat and other food of animal origin, especially contaminated with organophosphate.

ii. Meat for human consumption should be purchased at registered, government/private approved spots such as abattoirs, slaughter slabs, meat shops, etc. Such products must have been certified wholesome, fit for consumption by a registered veterinarian.

iii. Meat from dead animals is unwholesome and should not be consumed.

iv. With a withdrawal period of 14 -21 days after injection, ingestion and / or application of drugs or chemicals preparation on animals should be strictly observed before products from such animals are certified for consumption.

v. Dead animals should be properly disposed of with the aid of veterinarians and environmental health officers.

vi. Report and diseased animals or suspected to be diseased to the nearest veterinary clinics/hospital or animal health services providers.

vii. People who may have genuine reason to apply chemicals on open farmlands or fields should please notify their host communities to avoid grazing animals on such fields for at least one week.

The Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security wishes to assure the general public that it will, through its Department of Veterinary and Pest Control Services continue to work with States Veterinary Service in synergy to ensure that best veterinary and agricultural practices are observed especially for disease, agricultural pests and hazard prevention and control, with the professional motive of enhancing Animal Welfare and ensuring availability of wholesome food of animal origin.
