Penned by Habila Ishaq Dear Nigeria Salafiyyah , I think you people did not see what happened at Saudi Arabia some days back?  Seriously, I was so surprised when I heard that Saudi Arabia organized Halloween some days back, and I did not see a single Nigerian Salafiyyah to come out and fight against this action or to come out and enlighten and explain this evil action did by Saudi government to Muslim Ummah.  I believe that everybody knows that Saudi Arabia is the holy and purely glorified city for all Muslim Ummah. If you don't know before go and know, and have it in your mind that Saudi is the holy city that belong to all Muslim Ummah and it is compulsory for everyone of us to protect it if truly that we love our beloved Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W).   Few days ago the Saudi General Entertainment Authority organised a festival called "Horror Weekend". This is not a private party! This was organised, sponsored and promoted by the Saudi government.  This is MBS’s 2...

The bridge came as a fascinating and indeed a beaut before every eyes in the metropolis as at the few years span of its construction. Of about last week, the bridge has quite become.one of the major talks of town again following the heavy rains experienced in the past few weeks in the city which is likely one of the factors that contributed to the dismay of the condition the road is currently in.

It is quite significant to remind the authorities in Abuja today that the nation is still waiting for freedom for Citizen Leah Sharibu, the only Dapchi schoolgirl and Christian who is still being held in captivity because of her faith. Some aid workers had the other day raised concern about her safety but the Federal Government said all was well with her and they were continuing with negotiation to set her free.

And the implication is that when hope is deferred, as the ancient word notes, it makes the heart sick, but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life. While Zainab Aliyu, a Muslim girl who was arrested and detained in Saudi Arabia for alleged drug trafficking and whose release was secured through the intervention of the Federal Government, arrived in the country the other day, families and well-wishers marked the 16th birthday of Leah Sharibu, still he...
