Zulum made this known in an Easter message released on Sunday through his media aide, Dauda Iliya, as he extended greetings to Christians in Borno and across Nigeria.

“It is encouraging to see the level of religious harmony between Christians and Muslims in Borno. I urge residents to sustain this spirit as we continue taking deliberate steps toward lasting peace,” he said.
The governor described Easter as a sacred season that reflects sacrifice, love, and forgiveness, noting that it marks the end of the 40-day Lenten period of fasting, prayer, and reflection.
Zulum also reiterated his government’s resolve to improve security and support residents amid economic challenges. He disclosed that over 300,000 families have benefited from expanded palliative distributions aimed at easing hardship.
He called on citizens to remain united and avoid actions that could create division, especially during the current political climate.
“Borno belongs to all of us. We must avoid divisive tendencies and remain focused on our collective recovery, without allowing enemies of peace to derail our progress,” he added.
The governor commended the Nigerian Armed Forces, other security agencies, the Civilian Joint Task Force, hunters, and vigilantes for their sacrifices and successes in the fight against insurgency. He also praised traditional and religious leaders for fostering peaceful coexistence.
Zulum expressed optimism that with continued collaboration and resilience, Borno State will overcome its security challenges and achieve lasting peace.

Factional Labour Party South-West Vice Chairman, Abayomi Arabambi, has insisted that the party’s 2023 presidential candidate, Peter Obi, will never be allowed to return to the Labour Party.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
Arabambi said attempts by the Nenadi Usman-led faction to reintegrate Obi would fail, stressing that the party’s leadership has taken a final position on the matter.
He made the statement during an interview on News Central, saying the decision followed internal consultations involving key figures such as the Julius Abure-led leadership and Abia State Governor Alex Otti.
According to him, the party has also resolved to support President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s re-election bid in 2027.
Arabambi further blamed Obi and his supporters for contributing to Labour Party’s internal challenges during the 2023 elections, alleging organizational failures during the polls.
He maintained that Obi’s return to the party is completely off the table, insisting that the issue is already settled within the party’s leadership structure.
The New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) has dismissed claims by former Vice President Atiku Abubakar that it is part of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) coalition.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
In a statement on Thursday, NNPP National Secretary Ogini Olaposi said the party is not affiliated with the ADC and has no plans to join or merge with the coalition.
He clarified that the involvement of former Kano State Governor Rabiu Kwankwaso and members of the Kwankwasiya Movement in ADC activities does not represent the NNPP as a political party.
Olaposi also claimed that only a minority of Kwankwasiya supporters followed Kwankwaso, insisting that many of them have since joined the APC.
He further accused Atiku of misinformation, stressing that NNPP remains an independent political party focused on contesting elections on its own platform.
According to him, any previous association with the Kwankwasiya Movement ended after the 2023 general elections, adding that Kwankwaso and some associates had already been expelled from the party.
The NNPP maintained that it respects other political parties but has no interest in joining the ADC coalition.
