The immediate past governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai, has come under criticism over his attempts to taunt the administration of Governor Uba Sani over alleged indiscriminate waste disposal in the state.

Recall that an X user with the handle @IU_Wakilii [Imran U. Wakili Oluwa Femi] had shared pictures of Mr Sani and heaps of refuse dumps in a location assumed to be within the state.

In the post, the user had said: “They thought we were kidding when we said that in just a few months, Governor Uba Sani had changed Kaduna completely. This is the type of change we are getting from the best governor in Nigeria.”

Retweeting the post, Mr El-Rufai wrote:” From God, we all came, and to Him, we shall all return.”

Since the rumour of the strained relationship between Messrs El-Rufai and Sani became public, this is the first public attempt by the former governor to express his displeasure over the administration of his long-time friend and political ally.

However, shortly after Mr El-Rufai’s post, many X users stormed the comment section to remind the former governor of the issues that enveloped his administration.

An X user by the name Nura Mohammed Nasan with the @NMnasan asked: “Please, just explain to us what and what You did with a $350m foreign loan.”

Another user, @FS_Yusuf_, said, “O, your wail no dey reach us for back seats. Shout harder. The dirt you didn’t clear, he is clearing them for you.”

@Sports_Doctor2 wrote: “But sir, these images are from your time, there are images of these piles of rubbish from way back in 2016!!!!

“Images of this nonsense were there during your time as governor for 8 good years, and you did absolutely nothing about it.You see this life eh ”

Also, a former minister of aviation and chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Femi Fani Kayode, said the pictures of the refuse dumps were not from Kaduna State.

In a post on his X handle @realFFF, said, “It is utterly despicable for anyone to take pictures of filthy rubbish dumps from other parts of the country and claim that they are in Kaduna state all in a scurrilous and futile attempt to discredit Governor Uba Sani (@ubasanius).

“Malicious falsehood, specious lies and malevolent disinformation have no place in civilised discourse or in the land of the living. Those that indulge in such primitive behaviour and employ such vile tactics need to reconsider their wicked ways or check into a mental hospital.

Similarly, a former Senator who represented Kaduna Central, on his handle @Shehusani, noted that instead of providing answers to the alleged looting of 423 billion,”They resorted to “screenshooting” images of rubbish dump from other places and portray it as that of Kaduna of today.

“They have forgotten their images of how people and animals drank from the same pond under their ignominious and corrupt regime in Kaduna [2015-2023].

A 15-year-old girl from Groningen in the Netherlands was arrested after her parents, Johan and Mathilda, both 53, were found f@tally stabbed last Thursday, June 18, Dutch outlet Algemeen Dagblad reported.

The family’s pet golden retriever also suffered stab wounds in the rampage, the Sun reported.

The dog’s condition is unclear.

The girl took images of her slain parents and then shared the disturbing photos with her friends on WhatsApp after the bloody attack, the Telegraaf reported.

“You could see both of her parents lying on the ground with their eyes open. Her father was lying on the floor, and her mother was on the bed. There was blood visible and a knife,” one student told the outlet in Dutch.

Local police declined to comment further on the images, but encouraged people to never distribute such images online and report them to the police, the reports said.

The girl reportedly struggled with her identity and often pretended to be a dog, crawling around and barking on all fours with other friends in school corridors.

“She wore a tail, dog ears, and gloves,” another classmate told the outlet. “And sometimes she would make barking sounds.”

Johan and Mathilda’s relatives said in a statement obtained by Algemeen Dagblad that they “can hardly comprehend” the murd£rs.

‘We hope that everyone understands that we are deeply affected by the tragic events surrounding the passing of Johan and Mathilda from Meerstad,” family and friends said in a statement through an aid organization.

“But the support and sympathy we have received from many do us good and are heartwarming.”

An investigation into the slayings remains ongoing.

Ogun State Police Command says it has recovered the Lexus RX300 stolen from the home of slain ex-OGTV broadcaster Mrs Kitan Oyesiku and her security guard in Iyana Agodo Village, Owode-Egba.

The recovery happened during night operations, the command confirmed Monday.

—CP walks the scene himself—

Commissioner of Police Bode Ojajuni visited the crime scene for an on-the-spot assessment. He inspected the premises and got briefings from detectives handling the case.

“CP Ojajuni reiterated the Command’s resolve to leave no stone unturned in unraveling the circumstances surrounding the incident and ensuring that those responsible are identified, apprehended, and brought to justice,” Police PPRO Oluseyi Babaseyi said in a statement.

The visit, according to police, was to evaluate progress in the investigation into the double murder that has rattled the Owode-Egba community.

—What happened that night—

PUNCH Online had reported that a resident raised the alarm over suspicious movements around Oyesiku’s residence. When operatives arrived, they found signs of forced entry.

Inside, the security guard was found dead at his post. Oyesiku’s body was later discovered inside the apartment. Her Lexus RX300 was missing.

Police now say the vehicle has been secured and will serve as key evidence. “It is worthy of note that the vehicle earlier reported missing from the residence, a Lexus RX300, has been recovered by police operatives during the night hours,” Babaseyi confirmed.

—“Intensive investigation ongoing”–

Ojajuni commiserated with Oyesiku’s family and assured Ogun residents that “all available resources are being deployed to track down the perpetrators.”

For now, no arrests have been announced. But with the car recovered and the CP personally monitoring the case, police say they’re closing in.

Oyesiku, a retired broadcaster with Ogun State Television, was remembered by colleagues as a calm voice on air. Her death, alongside her guard’s, has renewed calls for better security for elderly residents living alone in semi-urban areas. [The Punch report rewritten]
