Human Trafficking: Kwara set to train 40 personnel of the security agencies and social workers.


With its theme, as "Prevention, Protection and Assistance to Victims ", all is set by the Kwara State Taskforce on Human Trafficking, to engage relevant law enforcement officers and other social workers on a day training focusing on curbing the prevalence of human trafficking and effective reporting channels in the state.

In His statement, the State Taskforce Chairman, who is also the Honourable Attorney- General and Commissioner for Justice , Barr. Senior Ibrahim Sulyman noted that the move is part of the state government 's efforts under the leadership of His Excellency, Mallam AbdulRaman AbdulRazaq CON to ensure the safety of both Kwarans and our borders.

According to Barr. Sulyman, the train scheduled to commence on Wednesday, 16th April,, will be held at Yashikira community, in Baruten local government area of the State. Adding that, the event, sponsored by the Kwara State Government, is to ensure that the Trafficking in persons laws are polarized among the community for their safety to avoid being a victim of this modern slavery.

Barr. Sulyman further noted that the campaign is to educate the public on the dangers of human trafficking and strengthen our borders from being porous 

The Chairman, who reiterated that the training is another eye opener on community efforts and collaboration, also called on the relevant agencies expected at the training to not only arrive in good time, but also make use of the knowledge that would be acquired during and after the training for the benefit of humanity.

Barr. Sulyman, therefore, appreciates the State Government for the support and proactive interventions at all times for the benefit of Kwarans irrespective of religion or political affiliations.

Matawal Dauda Mafwil: One Death, too many

Image
By Engr. Dr. Isaac Kolo The sad news of the sudden death of Engr Matawal Dauda Mafwil, the Plateau State RAAMP Project Coordinator, got to many as a rude shock. Indeed, life is about memories! The memories of things shared, proposed, and yet to be accomplished.  No doubt, the modest memory of late Engr. Matawal Dauda Mafwil will endure, and his example stands out in terms of his great accomplishments in the RAAMP project, which he heads, and most especially, in the life of others. I am personally pained that a friend, brother, and fellow project coordinator left this earthly prison house and transited to the great beyond. At a time, his fatherly leadership, love, and wisdom are still needed. Little wonder, Thomas Campbell says, and he is right that “to live in the hearts of those we love is not to die”.  His memories of modest lifestyle and modest human relations will continue to inspire through his work, the hearts of many, and his unrelenting devotion to those ar...

Readers may wish to note that, the race in question, have been done and dusted to the glory of God, and the next line is the main local government elections, scheduled for 21st September. Given what played out at the end of the race, Elesinmeta has no candidate in the race any longer. Habib is just a face, but the mandate, which on a normal ground should come to Elesinmeta, has been taken to Marafa Oja. Meanwhile, Comrade Habib Ajibola Law...
