Gov. Buni Charge Traditional Rulers on Youth Morality
By: Mamman Mohammed
Yobe state Governor Hon. Mai Mala Buni CON has charged traditional, religious leaders and parents on youth upbringing with descent morality.
He gave the charge today when the new Emir of Tikau, Alh. Abubakar Muhammad Ibn Grema led a delegation of Tikau Emirate title holders on a thank you visit to the governor.
Gov. Buni reiterated the collective responsibility to rebuild the eroding culture of discipline, descency, and righteousness in the youth for a better future.
“The government, traditional authorities, and parents all have the responsibility to arrest the growing decay in morality, discipline, and drug abuse.
“The state government would support 20 young farmers from each of the 178 political wards with farm inputs this cropping season.
“This is to provide employment to our youth and to boost food sufficiency and food security in the state,” he said.
The governor urged the new Emir to be just and fair to all and a good ambassador of peace, unity, and development.
“Your father, the late Emir, was an advocate of peace and unity. You should strive to surpass his achievements to justify your selection as the emir,” he advised.
The new Emir Alh. Abubakar Muhammad Ibn Grema appreciated the governor and government of Yobe state for standing with the family and the Emirate during the trying moment of the passage of the late emir.
“We are grateful for the show of love and for your gracious approval of me as the new emir,” Abubakar said.
He assured the support, cooperation, and loyalty of the emirate to Governor Buni and his government and pleaded for the rehabilitation of the Sabon Garin Nangere hospital.
“I also intend to continue with the tradition of peace building, Zakkat and tree planting left by my father for the benefit of community and the people,” the Emir assured.

The Nigerian Air Force (NAF), under the Air Component of Operation Hadin Kai (OPHK), conducted a successful Air Interdiction (AI) mission at a terrorists’ hideout in the Southern Tumbuns general area in the Lake Chad of Borno, killing scores of the terrorists.
Intelligent sources told Zagazola Makama that the precision air strike, which took place at about 2100 hours on 5 May 2025, targeted a major terrorists’ concentration camp located in the Tumbuma Baba axis of Lake Chad.
The sources said that the offensive was in continuation of a decisive Operation KALACHEN WUTA II, aimed at denying terrorists the freedom to execute large-scale attacks during the Eid el-Kabir period.
The sources said that Intelligence and Battle Damage Assessment (BDA) reports confirmed that several terrorists were neutralised during the strike, and key logistics under heavy foliage were destroyed.
The sources said that the strikes followed credible intelligence on planned coordinated attacks by the insurgents before, during, and after the Eid festivities. The mission was meticulously planned and executed to forestall such threats and sustain pressure on terrorist elements operating in the Lake Chad fringes.
“We observed significant secondary explosions, indicating the presence of arms and fuel storage. Multiple terrorists were seen fleeing the area, while several others were eliminated during the strike,” the source said.
The sources said efforts are ongoing to gather further feedback, as well as to assess the operational impact of the interdiction.
He added that preliminary signs suggest a high level of disarray and panic within the terrorists’ ranks, with reports of attempted regrouping under surveillance.
