Borno Governor Distributes 100 Trucks of Grains Donated by President Tinubu

Borno State Governor, Babagana Zulum, on Monday launched the distribution of 100 trucks of food items donated by President Bola Tinubu to support residents affected by recent hardships. The food, including maize, sorghum, and millet, was distributed in Ngala Local Government Area, which had been severely impacted by flooding.
During the flag-off ceremony, Governor Zulum highlighted that the town had been cut off from the rest of the country for nearly four months due to heavy rainfall, making food supplies difficult to deliver. He explained that the distribution was aimed at alleviating the hardship faced by the people of Ngala.
Zulum expressed his gratitude to President Tinubu and the federal government for their support, stating, “All of the food items distributed today were donated to us by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. The President has given us 100 trucks of assorted grains, including maize, millet, and sorghum.”
The governor also mentioned that the federal government had provided additional rice trucks for victims of the Maiduguri flood disaster. Looking ahead, Governor Zulum noted that the state would soon transition from food aid distribution to long-term solutions, such as the establishment of irrigation projects in resettled communities, to support sustainable agricultural practices year-round.
“These initiatives will ensure that people in Ngala and other affected areas can cultivate their land all year round,” Zulum added.

Opposition no longer safe with recruitment of Osun PDP members into Amotekun – APM

The Allied Peoples Movement (APM) in Osun State has raised concerns over the alleged recruitment of members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) into the state’s Amotekun Corps, claiming it threatens the safety of opposition members.
In a statement issued on Friday, APM Chairman, Mr. Adewale Adebayo, criticized the recruitment process, alleging that non-PDP applicants were deliberately screened out. He warned that Amotekun, originally created to enhance security, was being turned into a political tool.
“We are disturbed by the protest by well-meaning Osun residents who applied but were deliberately excluded because they are not PDP members,” Adebayo stated.
He further alleged that over 1,000 PDP members had been recruited into the corps, describing it as an attempt to silence opposition voices. According to him, the recruitment exercise was merely a formality to cover up a pre-arranged selection process favoring ruling party members.
APM has called for the resignation of the Corps Commandant and Field Commandant of Amotekun, demanding an apology to the affected applicants and the people of the state. The party insisted that the security outfit must remain apolitical to maintain public trust.
Neither the Osun State Government nor the leadership of Amotekun has responded to the allegations as of the time of this report.
