Chiefs are busy people, so a colonial chief finding time to write the history of his own people is unusual, and more remarkable when the history he wrote sheds light on an anarchic period of the nineteenth century about which few testimonies were recorded. The chief’s initial research predated his accession and was augmented over more than three decades as otherdemands allowed and his enthusiasm dictated, a pattern of attention which accounts for theoccasionally recursive character of the finally published text to which episodes were added when there was a moment to do so Later a supplementary volume was indeed added to fulfil the author’s wish on completing the first. Garbosa II, the regnal name of Malam Muhamman Bitemya Sambo, the seventh Gara Donga, was the author in Hausa of two volumes: The History and Customs of the Chamba (Labarun Chambawa da Al’amurransu) and, later, The Family Trees of the Garas Donga (Salsalar Sarakunan Donga), which were completed in 1956 and pu...

The Current Iran vs America/Israel War Through the Lens of Islam and History - By Umar Ardo, Ph.D

-
Image
Great conflicts are rarely just about territory, weapons or diplomacy. They are often struggles over deeper questions: Who holds moral authority? Who carries the responsibility of defending a civilization? And what happens when those entrusted with that responsibility abandon it? 2. Across history, moments of geopolitical confrontation have frequently exposed deeper moral and civilizational shifts. The present conflict involving Iran, Israel and the United States may be one such moment; one that forces the Muslim world to confront uncomfortable questions about leadership, autonomy and responsibility! In the Islamic worldview, such historical transformations are not accidental. They are tied to a moral law as articulated with remarkable clarity in the Holy Qur’an 47:38: “And if you turn away, He will replace you with another people; then they will not be like you.” 3. Classical Islamic tradition records that when this verse was discussed, the Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW) placed his hand ...

While Arewa Is Bleeding, Its Leaders Are Fighting - By Kadaria Ahmed

-
Image
• Kadaria Ahmed in a TV program  Let us start with what we know. Mallam Nasir El-Rufai, former governor of Kaduna State, former FCT Minister under President Olusegun Obasanjo, and one-time Director-General of the Bureau of Public Enterprises, is under arrest. He is facing allegations of corruption and accusations under the Cybercrimes Act, including claims that he facilitated the tapping of the phone of the National Security Adviser, Mallam Nuhu Ribadu. He has denied all wrongdoing. He says this is political persecution, punishment for criticising a government he helped bring to power. The courts will determine the legal truth. But politics is rarely only about what is written in a charge sheet. This story is not simply about El-Rufai. It is about power. It is about loyalty. And it is about a region in crisis whose leaders appear unable to rise above themselves. Because this is not just any defendant. This is a man who once stood shoulder to shoulder with Mallam Nuhu Ri...

PANTAMI AND THE HYPOCRISY OF NORTHERN POLITICSAli Abubakar Sadiq

-
Image
One of the trending issues on the table recently in the North is the political aspiration of the Cleric-turn-politician, in his quest to become the next Governor of Gombe state come 2027. I am not going to support Jafar Jafar's dismissive article of Pantami's unrealistic effort to juggle the moral compass of his clerical uprightness against the immoral stance of Nigeria politics which thrives mostly on corruption and deciet. Nor am I going to agree with Professor Abba Aji's rejoinder to Jafar Jafar, seemingly endorsing Pantami's ability to eat his cake and have it, as he maintains the dual role of Cleric-Politician. What I am going to do is simply remind us of the antecedents and precedents of Pantami's role in the last two decades, from both the religious and political spaces he traverses.  In a viral video in recent years, we have seen the skinny, vocal and passionate Pantami castigating, condemning and distancing himself from politics and politicians....
