THE FIRST LADY CARRYING THE BABY

 Following the shocking story of a little toddler being raped in Kano, the wife of the President and the Emir of Kano have paid a visit to the innocent victim.

 The wife of the President, Mrs. Aisha Buhari, and the Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi II, on Saturday, condemned the rape of a six-month-old baby, stressing that the culprit must be made to face the music.

 The infant, who is now eight months old, was allegedly violated by 30-year-old Muktakar Muhammad, assisted by his wife.

 Mrs. Buhari, who paid the baby a visit at Aminu Kano Teaching Hospital, Kano State, described the rape case as man’s inhumanity to man.

 She also commended the Kano State Government for taking measures to save the life of the minor.

 The Emir of Kano, who visited the hospital earlier, urged security agencies and the state government to ensure that the culprits were brought to book.

 The monarch consoled the parents of the baby and promised that the Emirate Council would do its best to ensure the welfare of the child and her parents.

 The Kano State Commissioner for Information, Muhammad Garba, in a statement, said the state government had vowed to get justice for the baby.

 Garba said, “We are deeply saddened by a story of a six-month old baby girl, allegedly raped by a close confidant in Kano. The government of Kano says it will make whoever is found guilty the first to pay the supreme price of life imprisonment.

 “Already, (Governor Abdullahi) Ganduje has directed the state Ministry of Justice to handle the matter properly by ensuring that it is delivered to the letter.

 “Whoever is involved in this sordid sexual crime will be prosecuted under the relevant provision contained in the Kano State Penal Code Amendment Law, referred to as the ‘Principal Law’ as amended under section 283.”

 The state government assured the baby’s parents and sympathisers that appropriate legal action would be taken, while promising that the state would bear the cost of the victim’s medical treatment.

The  Police in Lagos have warned residents of the state against subjecting suspected criminals to jungle justice.

It is a manifestation of the erosion of our moral values and a disregard to sanctity of human lives.

"TRUMP AN UTTERLY UNTRUTHFUL PRESIDENT AND NO ROLE MODEL" SENATOR BOB CORKER

By
Image
If President Trump's relationship with his former ally Senator Bob Corker was frayed before, it now appears to be ruptured completely. The two Republicans reignited their feud on Tuesday after the president did not take kindly to Corker's criticism of his leadership and his suggestion that Trump "stay out" of congressional negotiations over a tax bill. In a trio of television interviews, the increasingly outspoken Tennessee senator repeated his dim assessment of Trump's performance and went further than he—or any elected Republican—has gone in questioning the president's fitness for office. Calling Trump "an utterly untruthful president," Corker said he was not a role model for the nation's children and declared unequivocally that he would not support him for reelection in 2020. "He's obviously not going to rise to the occasion as president," Corker said on CNN. He accused Trump of "constant non-truth telling" and said he
