We joined some concerned Nigerians to protest by calling the government to find an immediate solution to the daily killings in Zamfara and Environs. CSI Peace Foundation Team was in Kaduna where they matched to the Government House.
Is Marriage a Contract in Islam? (Shin Aure Kwangila ne a Musulunci?) Lately, a sister posted online that “marriage is a contract in Islam.” Some people agreed, but others became angry, saying marriage (aure) is not a contract (kwangila) but a sacred act of worship. To clear the confusion, let us look carefully at what Islamic teachings say — from the Qur’an, Hadith, and opinions of scholars. The truth is this: Aure a Musulunci kwangila ne — amma kwangila ce mai tsarki da daraja. 1. Marriage in Islam Is a Contract (Aure Kwangila ne) In Shari’a, marriage — Nikāh — is first a contract (ʿaqd) between a man (namiji) and a woman (mace). It is an agreement that sets out the rights (hakki) and duties (alhaki) of both partners. For a Nikāh to be valid, there are four main conditions: Offer and Acceptance (Ijab wa Qabul) One side offers and the other accepts clearly. Example: The waliyy (guardian) of the bride says, “Na ba ka aurenta,” and the groom says, “Na karɓa.” Consent Both the man a...
Today, as the world observes the International Day of Peace, we are reminded that peace is not just the absence of war, but the triumph of conscience over conflict. True peace is not about politics or positions — it is about humanity, about doing what is right, about protecting life, dignity, and hope. At the Comrade Sanni Inuwa (CSI) Peace Foundation, we stand firm in our conviction that peace is the foundation upon which all societies must be built. Nigeria’s Unique Diversity Nigeria is blessed with extraordinary diversity. With over 250 ethnic groups, countless languages, and rich traditions, our cultural mosaic is one of the greatest in the world. From the Hausa-Fulani in the North, to the Yoruba in the West, the Igbo in the East, and the minority groups of the Middle Belt and South-South, we have everything needed to be an example of peaceful coexistence. Sadly, our diversity has too often been manipulated for political relevance. But peace is not about politics. It is about...
When people speak of the “Nigerian Dream,” many laugh. They say it died long ago, buried under corruption, insecurity, unemployment, and failed promises. To some, the Nigerian Dream sounds like a cruel joke, a story we tell ourselves to survive disappointment. But I disagree. The Nigerian Dream is not dead. It has not vanished. It has only moved away from the noise of Abuja and Lagos, and is quietly hiding in the villages, waiting to be rediscovered. Go to a rural farm settlement in Benue, and you will see farmers who plant with hope, not headlines. Visit a small community in Kano, and you will meet young women weaving, tailoring, and learning skills, not waiting for government jobs that may never come. Travel to Ebonyi, and you will see youths building rice mills with their bare hands, not waiting for foreign investors. In these villages, life is hard, yes! but it is also real. People work, produce, and survive. They do not complain about the dollar, because their wealth is in cassava...
