Hundreds of youths under the coalition of All Progressives Congress (APC) Forum, Kano State, on Monday, hailed the Deputy President of the Senate, Senator Barau I Jibrin, describing him as a bulldozer of the development of the Centre of Commerce.
Members of the forum from across the 44 Local Government Areas of Kano State paid a courtesy call to the Deputy President of the Senate at the National Assembly on Monday.
The event was attended by Senator Babangida Hussaini (APC, Jigawa), Senator Muntari Dandutse (APC, Katsina), Senator Ibrahim Lamido (APC,Sokoto) and a member of the House of Representatives, Dambatta/Makoda Federal Constituency of Kano State, Rep Hamisu Ibrahim Chidari.
Chairman of the forum, Hon Adamu Mukhtar, said the Deputy President of the Senate has always been at the forefront of the development of Kano State and the APC.
Urging him to sustain the tempo, he said they are working hard to unite the party in all the nooks and crannies of Kano State.
” You are the bulldozer of the development of Kano State. Please continue with the good work you are doing. Don’t relent. We are solidly behind you,” he said.
Stressing the importance of unity in the party, he said, “We will embark on a massive campaign across the 44 local government areas. Many youth who are members of the opposition parties have indicated interest in joining us in the APC.”
Responding, the Deputy President of the Senate, Senator Barau I Jibrin, commended the youth for mobilising for the party.
” This is a good initiative. This was what we did in the Second Republic. We mobilised for our party without having any intention to contest for elections. We were only after the success of our party. I’m happy you have embarked on the same journey,” he said.
He told the youth that the future of Kano and, indeed, the country is in their hands.
” The future of Kano and Nigeria politics is in your hands. The future is yours. Take this seriously. You will go places. We are with you 100 per cent.
” I also urge you always to ensure that the right people are given the mantle of leadership, from ward to all levels. This is the way to go. If the right persons are given, victory, Insha Allah, will be ours. If we form government in Kano State, youth will be the greatest beneficiaries.
In their speeches, Senator Babangida Hussaini (APC, Jigawa), Senator Muntari Dandutse (APC, Katsina), Senator Ibrahim Lamido (APC, Sokoto) and a member of the House of Representatives, Dambatta/Makoda Federal Constituency of Kano State, Rep Hamisu Ibrahim Chidari, extolled the virtues of Senator Barau, describing him as a senator for all, committed to the development of the country.

Teenage girl allegedly stabbed parents to de@th, stabbed family dog, sent crime scene photos to friends
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.

OGTV broadcaster: Police recover stolen Lexus RX300 as CP vows “no stone unturned” in murder probe
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]
