#DemocracyDay: 4 Reasons Why Nigerians Are Angry With President Buhari

President Muhammadu Buhari has given another Democracy Day speech today, May 29. The nation's number one citizen has practically spent three years as Nigeria's president.

On the part of a good number of Nigerians, there are so many things the citizens are not happy with, especially on the issues of fighting corruption, security as well as economic revival.

President Buhari promised the masses heaven and earth, prior to his victory against former president, Goodluck Jonathan on Saturday, March 28, 2015, however, it's another kettle of fish now.

Here are four reasons why Nigerians are not comfortable with the Buhari led government.

1. Some sections of the country believe President Buhari has totally marginalised them. The Southeastern people think Buhari has nothing to offer them.

2. There is so much poverty and hunger in the land. A large number of Nigerians groan everyday under low income and hike in food prices.

3. The war against corruption is believed not to be holistic in approach. This sentiment is held mostly by opposition parties and critics of the current administration.

4. Killings of minority ethnic groups by alleged herdsmen across the country. States like Benue, Taraba, have become killing grounds for these marauders.

President Muhammadu Buhari

#RamadanDailyDigest: Knowing The 5 Daily Compulsory Prayers Time Table

As Day 2 of Ramadan fasting for this year has been completed today, Ramadan Daily Digest will briefly look at the 5 Daily Compulsory Prayers time table in the month of Ramadan. The 5 Daily Compulsory Prayers are sacrosanct on all Muslims, who have reached puberty just as the Ramadan fasting is obligatory all physically okay Muslims. There are other factors like maturity, state of health, embarking on a journey, age, among others which are considered before a Muslim participates in Ramadan fasting. A Muslim who adheres to fasting Ramadan, without saying the 5 Daily Compulsory Prayers should forget about getting access to paradise on the Day of Judgement.

#RamadanDailyDigest: Muslim Wives Are Supporters, Not Slaves

Muslims have completed fasting Day 4 today, as they look forward to Day 5 fasting out of the 29 or 30 days fasting; it is important to highlight the roles Muslim wives play in the family. Muslim wives are supporters, and not slaves, and should be treated with utmost dignity. In the religion of Islam, the roles and rights of Muslim wives are copiously written and spoken about. How husbands should relate with their wives are clearly stated. In the Glorious Qur'an, to show the love Allaah has for women, chapter 4 is also called 'Suuratu Nisaa' which translates to chapter of the women in English language. Interesting to know that there is no single chapter out of the total 114 chapters of the Glorious Qur'an named after men, further showing that Muslim wives, daughters, mothers, and all groups of females are held in high esteem by Allaah. It is a sad tale to see what happens in the present day world, whereby some women are maltreated and abused by the society and their part...
