🚨Response from the Federal Ministry of Education on this embarrassing video circulating on social media: “The Federal Ministry of Education has taken note of a video circulating on social media in which the newly elected Students' Union Government (SUG) President for the 2026/2027 academic session was unable to answer a question posed by a student during the manifesto session. The Ministry expresses its disappointment over the incident, as student leaders are expected to demonstrate competence, preparedness, and the ability to communicate effectively while representing the interests of their fellow students. In light of the concerns raised by the video, the Ministry has addressed a formal letter to the university, urging the institution to continue promoting high standards of leadership, academic excellence, and accountability in student governance. The Ministry remains committed to supporting quality education and encouraging student leadership that reflects integrity, competence, and excellence.”

Gov Radda Offers Direct Employment to First Class Graduate Selling Pure Water, Reaffirms Commitment to Academic Excellence. Katsina State Governor, Malam Dikko Umaru Radda PhD, CON, has offered immediate employment to Sham'unu Ishaq, a First Class graduate of Umaru Musa Yar'adua University who was discovered selling pure water to support his family. Upon learning of Ishaq's situation, Governor Radda promptly directed his Special Assistant on Students Matters, Hon. Muhammad Nagaske, to verify the authenticity of the viral video. Subsequent investigation confirmed that Sham'unu Ishaq indeed graduated with First Class honors in (Ed.) Education/Biology during the 2021/2022 academic session, as verified by the University's Deputy Vice Chancellor. Ishaq, who completed his National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) program in Taraba State, had resorted to selling pure water to meet personal and family obligations. "Academic excellence should be rewarded, not relegated to the streets," Governor Radda stated while issuing directives for Ishaq's immediate employment through the Head of Service. "This administration remains committed to identifying and supporting exceptional talents who can contribute to our state's development." This latest intervention aligns with Governor Radda's consistent drive to reward academic excellence and promote quality education in Katsina State. Just last month, on October 12, 2024, the Governor demonstrated this commitment by offering automatic employment to nine outstanding graduates of Isah Kaita College of Education, Dutsinma. Additionally, the Governor offered another direct employment to 9 First Class Graduates from Umaru Musa Yar'adua University during the 9th - 13th combined convocation held on the 26th May, 2024. "Our administration recognizes that the future of Katsina State lies in harnessing the potential of our brightest minds," Governor Radda emphasized. "We will continue to create opportunities that enable our youth to utilize their skills and knowledge for the betterment of our society." The Governor's swift action not only addresses an immediate social concern but also sends a strong message about his administration's dedication to youth empowerment and educational development. This gesture reinforces the government's policy of identifying and supporting academic excellence while ensuring that no talented youth in Katsina State is left behind. *Ibrahim Kaula Mohammed* *Chief Press Secretary to the Governor of Katsina State* *14th November, 2024*

The moment the elites knew they needed a culture war to distract from the class war they were waging: At the height of the Occupy Wall Street movement after the 2008 financial crisis, when Americans were gaining an unprecedented level of class consciousness, the elites of Wall St. mocked the protesters by drinking champagne while sneering at the crowds of protesters. However, they didn’t have hubris, they knew that millions of Americans had realised that the system was rigged against them; while Wall Street got Obama’s bailouts for wrecking the economy, which only enriched them even more… Millions of Americans lost their homes, their savings, and their dreams, with no bailouts from the government to help them with the disaster they faced. Millions of Americans realised the state was nothing but a managing organisation for the elite class, and the system was rigged against them. The answer to the working class realising that a class war was being waged against them? Give them a distraction culture war instead, to pit people from the same class against each other with vitriolic hatred while the elites hoarded even more wealth under their noses. The wealthiest 1% of households now control 31.7% of the nation’s wealth, the bottom 50% of Americans own just 2.5% of the nation’s wealth. The average conservative in a rust belt small town has more in common economically with a working class liberal in New York… But the billionaire-owned media pits them against each other with culture war issues and has them hating each other, while the elites continue to drink their champagne and laugh, as their share of wealth grows exponentially.
