Presidential Declaration: Kwankwaso Promises Value-Based Leadership

One time governor of Kano state, who ruled for two terms, Dr Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso has made his presidential declaration at Abuja, Nigeria's capital.

Kwankwaso on Wednesday, August 29, declared to run for the Presidency on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the coming 2019 general elections.

His declaration came less than 24 hours after he was denied use of the Eagle Square as venue for the political event.

But the senator, who later chose Chinda Hotel, at Jabi district Abuja, as venue for the event literarily grounded that area of Abuja as his supporters from the 36 states of the federation and the FCT thronged to the venue to witness the declaration.

The senator representing Kano Central said at the event, “Distinguished ladies and gentlemen let me thank you for coming far and wide to hear my decision to run for the president of Nigeria.

“Today, I declare under PDP to offer a leadership as all is not well in our polity.

On this day, I offer you a great leadership anchored on our constitution.

“As I formally declare my intention to vie for the office of the President on the platform of the PDP, I promise you a value-based leadership. We shall provide national security and as a former Minister of Defense, I know what I am talking about here.”

#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...
