The new chairman of Karai-Karai in politics in Yobe State, Alhaji Adamu Abdu Chillariye, has called on his people to unite themselves and support the present administration in the state under the able leadership of Governor Mai Mala Buni CON, CONM.
Alhaji Adamu Chillariye, the former state chairman of APC and now the adviser on governmental affairs, disclosed this in an interview with Newsng shortly after receiving the Karai-Karai delegations from Gujba and Gulani local government areas while paying him a congratulations visit in Potiskum.
He said the Karai-Karai peoples from Potiskum, Nangere, Fika, and Fune local government areas elected him as the chairman in politics in Yobe state, adding that leadership is not easy, and despite the challenges to it, he will try his best to see that justice prevails and is done among his people.
The former APC chairman appealed to Karai-Karai first: let us be patient with each other, unite ourselves, live in peace with our neighbors, and give our maximum support and cooperation to His Excellency, Governor Mai Mala Buni CON, as well as support his policies and programs of his administration.
Chillariye calls on them to engage in business and skills acquisitions to be self-reliant. Don’t depend solely on politics; try to engage yourself in business no matter how small it is. Adding that, I will do my best to draw the attention of our business moguls to assist our children who get the admission but don’t have the means to pay the school fees.
“You know, leadership is very difficult, but I will try my best and call on the people that I am a human being like everybody. If I make a mistake, please draw my attention and tell me the truth. Nobody is above making a mistake, and in my life, I don’t want to lie. Always tell me the truth no matter how painful it is; I would know how to handle it. Inshallah,” he said.
He emphasizes his calls for unity and patience among ourselves, and therefore let us support His Excellency, the Executive Governor Mai Mala Buni CON Chiroman Gujba, and also let us wait until what Governor Mai Mala Buni will tell us to do.

By: Zagazola Makama
At least seven persons were killed and three others abducted when armed bandits attacked Kyara village, a remote border community in Sabon Birni Local Government Area of Sokoto State, in the early hours of Thursday.
Sources said the attack occurred at about 4:00 a.m. in the village, which lies close to the Niger Republic border and has no mobile phone network coverage.
The bandits, who were said to be in large numbers and armed with sophisticated weapons, stormed the community, shooting sporadically and causing panic among residents.
During the attack, seven persons were shot dead, while two others sustained gunshot injuries. Three villagers were also kidnapped, and an unspecified number of domestic animals were rustled.
Joint security forces were immediately deployed to the area after the incident was reported. On arrival, they evacuated the corpses and the injured victims to a hospital for autopsy and medical treatment.
Troops have since launched a manhunt for the attackers with a view to rescuing the abducted victims, recovering the rustled livestock and arresting those responsible.
Confidence-building patrols are currently ongoing in and around Kyara village to reassure residents and prevent further attacks.
