APC CLARIFIES PMB ABSENCE IN COAS BURIAL

IF YOU DIDN'T KNOW, KNOW IT NOW by Md Awwal Yusuf:

For a President to be at any funeral or event outside the Presidential Villa, the event must have at least 48hs for intelligence operatives to do surveillance & clearance before the President can go based on the Security report.

In a case where the COAS & his team died yesterday & had to be buried today, you don't expect the President to go there without security clearance.

The min time of 48hs wasn't met. In insecurity parlance, funeral ceremonies are where politically exposed persons face more risks.

GEJ could attend Azazi’s burial because it wasn't done within 24 hours. Security issues and securing the President are not done by emotions or sentiments. There’re laid down procedures that must be followed.

This 48 hours security protocol further proven with the Jonathan – Yar'Adua's experience. It will be recalled that Jonathan too didn't attend Yar'Adua's funeral.

On May 6, 2010, former President Umaru Yar'Adua was buried, and Jonathan who succeeded him was absent at the funeral ceremony which held in Katsina.

Jonathan had been sworn in earlier same day, May 6, 2010, as the substantive president same day, and that could be taken as just less than 12 – 24 hours after he became the president.

ISRAEL VS PALESTINE, MINDSET OF PROTESTERS.

The Selective Protests Reveal Anti-Semitism When protestors only show up for certain victims and conflicts, what is the takeaway? The Palestinian terrorist political party HAMAS launched thousands of rockets into Israel in May 2021, seemingly ready to add a fourth war to its tally since it took over Gaza in 2007. In short order, the streets in major cities around the world were full of protesters raging about the hundreds of people who were killed by Israel’s retaliatory attacks on the HAMAS terrorist infrastructure.

He said the scheme is not a waste of time, adding that its relevance in integration and national cohesion must not be underestimated. The brigadier-general spoke on Wednesday in his office in Abuja. He said NYSC has been a useful tool for the socio-economic development of the country through the deployment of corps members to states outside their base.
