Gusau, Zamfara State —  ACOMIN lead ATM Network trained Stakeholders on CLM/CSS operational Modalities in Zamfara State. The training  aimed at empowering communities to play a greater role in the fight against Tuberculosis, Malaria, and HIV/AIDS. Delivering a keynote address at the opening of the training, the Deputy State Coordinator of the TB Network, Abdullahi Lawali Bungudu, emphasized that TB, Malaria, and HIV/AIDS remain major public health challenges in the state and across Nigeria. He noted, however, that community-driven solutions can change the narrative. “Community-Led Monitoring empowers affected populations to actively assess the quality of health services, identify gaps, and ensure accountability in service delivery,” he said. “Community Systems Strengthening, on the other hand, builds the capacity of organizations and networks to respond effectively. Stronger communities mean stronger health systems, and stronger health systems mean better outcomes for TB, Mala...

Behind PDP’s propaganda lies the pain of defeat.

Image
  By Mohammed Kabir A. The press conference by the Zamfara PDP is nothing but a desperate attempt to cover up their defeat in the Kaura Namoda South bye-election. Rather than accepting the will of the people, the PDP has resorted to fabricating lies against security agencies, the All Progressives Congress (APC), and even the Nigerian military. First, their allegation that the military was “deployed to intimidate voters” is baseless. Security personnel were stationed at polling units to prevent the kind of thuggery, ballot snatching, and violence that the PDP itself is notorious for in Zamfara elections. The claim that the army was “inside polling centres” lacks proof and is a deliberate distortion of reality. Second, their attempt to drag the Nigerian military into partisan politics is both reckless and dangerous. The same military they are maligning has sacrificed lives daily to protect communities from bandits. For PDP to compare the fight against banditry with election security ...

A Call for Peaceful Conduct During Elections in Kaura-Namoda.

Image
By Comrade Abdullahi Lawal Bungudu I wish to use this medium to appeal to the good people of Kaura-Namoda Local Government Area—especially in the wards where elections are scheduled to take place—to conduct themselves peacefully, maturely, and responsibly throughout the entire electoral process. Elections will come and go, but our relationships as neighbors, friends, and family will endure. Let us not allow political differences to break the unity and trust we have built over generations. Let us put Zamfara first, because it is the only state we can truly call our own. Violence, hate speech, and electoral malpractice will only set us back. May peace, understanding, and progress reign in Kaura-Namoda and all parts of Zamfara State, now and always. Long live Kaura-Namoda! Long live Zamfara State! Long live the Federal Republic of Nigeria!

An Urgent Call to Authorities on Graduation Celebrations

Image
  By Abdullahi Lawal Bungudu I wish to draw the urgent attention of the Zamfara State Ministry of Education, Science and Technology, the Universal Basic Education Board (UBEB), the Ministry for Religious Affairs, and all school principals across the state, regarding the manner in which graduation ceremonies are now being conducted in our schools. It has become increasingly alarming that these celebrations—particularly those involving our young children—are gradually drifting away from the ethical, cultural, and religious standards expected in our society. In many instances, the interactions between boys and girls during such events are inappropriate, and contradict the moral values and teachings of Islam. This worrisome trend, if left unchecked, threatens to erode the moral foundation we strive to instill in our children through both formal education and religious upbringing. Graduation ceremonies should be moments of pride and reflection, not occasions for moral laxity and cultura...
