Kwankwaso orders removal of Jonathan’s portraits from govt offices

Kano state Governor, Rabiu Kwankwaso has ordered the removal of President Goodluck Jonathan’s portrait from government establishments. This order came few days after he lost to Muhammadu Buhari, who got 1.9 million votes in Kano. Kwankwaso recently said Jonathan lost because his wife disrespected the north with her almajiri jibe. Meanwhile, National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) Zone B has condemned the move. According to them , ” it should be noted that this nonchalant attitude of removing a seating President’s portrait is demonic, petty and a coup in a democratic setting. This is celebration taking too far and should be condemned by all sane mind in the country,” the students reacted in a statement signed by Public Relations Officer (PRO) of NAN Zone B, Pedro Obi. The students called on Kwankwaso to immediately revert this negative action, fish out the culprits with an adequate punishment melted out to the overzealous officials and anti-democratic elements in Kano State. “As a former Deputy Speaker of the House of Representative, we believe Kwankwaso should know better the position of the law with respect to transition, as Nigerian Students in the eleven States of South South and South East out rightly rejects this palace coup in Kano State. “It should be noted that if this fails, it is capable of generating bad blood among the peace loving people of South South and South East region of the country. This will no doubt set a negative precedence against the democratic culture that President Goodluck Jonathan had cultivated and nurtured in Pre and Post 2015 general election,” the statement disclosed.

Snoop Lion Excommunicated From The Rastafari Community

Snoop Lion excommunicated from the Rastafari Community, according to Bunny Wailer! Bunny has always had his doubts about  Snoop Lion ‘s intent and now his skepticism has taken an even stronger stance, that of excommunication. The news was broken via his  Facebook  profile and via  press release . Recently Snoop Lion has struggled to convince the Rastafari and Reggae community that he is sincere about his profession of, and transition to the faith, principles and beliefs of Rastafari. Most doubtful is Bunny Wailer the only living member of the original Wailer. ‘ Excommunication is a religious censure used to deprive, suspend, or limit membership in a religious community or to restrict certain rights within it. Some groups use the term disfellowship instead, ‘ stated Bunny’s official release.
