Shehu Sani Writes Message to Future Generations on War and Hardship
On Monday, former Kaduna State senator Shehu Sani shared a reflective message directed at future generations, calling the present era one of struggle, war, and hardship.
In a post on his Facebook page, Sani reached out to the people of the distant year 2099, writing as though he were speaking across generations.
“Hello, the people of 2099,” he began, expressing an understanding that he and his contemporaries will not be there to witness the future or to know the challenges and triumphs of the next century.
His message captured the uncertainties and struggles of the current generation while acknowledging that no one can predict whether future times will be kinder or harsher.
“Our time is a time of war and hardships,” he wrote, reflecting the difficult social, economic, and political environment facing many today.
In a somber yet hopeful tone, Sani asked that, if future generations ever come across his or his peers’ graves, they pause to remove the grasses and say a prayer for those who endured these hardships.
He added, however, that he isn’t sure if people of the future will even remember or have time to think of those from the past.
Sani concluded with an affectionate farewell, imagining himself speaking from “the peace of Heaven,” and reminded readers that the essence of his time could still be discovered through the digital footprints and writings left behind.
The Chairman of Gboko Local Government Area of Benue State, Torseer Yina, has imposed a dusk-to-dawn curfew in the ancient town.
The curfew takes effect from Thursday, October 8, 2026, following unrest and violent protests in the area.
According to reports, the action was taken to contain the unrest and violent protests by members of BEMOA following the death of one of its members by unknown gunmen.
The protest, which was reportedly hijacked by hoodlums, turned violent after an angry mob burnt two vehicles belonging to the Benue State Civil Protection Guards.
The Gboko council chairman said the curfew takes effect immediately and warned that anyone caught flouting the order or breaching public peace would be decisively dealt with.
Nine people have died in a fatal road crash along the Ijebu-Ode-Benin Expressway in Ogun State.
The crash occurred on Monday at about 4:55pm around the Bethel area along the Ijebu-Ode/Ore axis of the expressway. It involved a white Toyota Hiace commercial bus belonging to Delta Line and a white Sino truck operated by Bill Gas Solution Ltd.
According to the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), all nine people involved in the crash, comprising three males and six females, died in the incident.
The FRSC said the crash occurred while it was raining and the road was wet, with preliminary investigations identifying speed violation as the probable cause.
The FRSC rescue team arrived at the scene shortly after receiving the report, while the bodies of the victims were taken to the General Hospital Morgue in Ijebu-Ode.
The Ogun State Sector Commander, Oludare Ogunjobi, urged motorists, especially commercial drivers, to obey speed limits and exercise extra caution when driving in the rain.
Minister of Education, Dr Tunji Alausa, speaks on the role and importance of teachers in the world to celebrate Teachers’ Day today.
He spoke on technology and its advancement and shared that while it is going well, teachers can never be replaced.
“These tools can help teachers reach learners and tailor instruction, but the judgement, encouragement and human connection of a skilled teacher remain indispensable,” he said.
“Every doctor, engineer, scientist, entrepreneur and public servant has benefited from a teacher and could not have become what they are today without teachers,” the minister said.
“When we honour teachers, we honour the people who make every other profession possible.”
