ENUGU YOUTHS CAUTION WIKE OVER REMARKS AGAINST MBAH

Enugu youths, under the auspices of the National Youth Council of Nigeria (NYCN), have issued a stern warning to the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Barr. Nyesom Wike, over his recent comments against Governor Peter Ndubisi Mbah.

In a statement released on Friday, the Chairman of the NYCN Enugu State Chapter, Comrade Chukwuebuka Bartholomew Okoh, expressed concern that Wike’s remarks suggested an intent to undermine PDP governors who do not align with his stance. He described such comments as unnecessary and dangerous to the unity of the party.

According to Okoh, statements like these only serve to weaken the PDP’s internal structure and distract from critical governance and development issues.

He emphasized that Governor Mbah has been instrumental in fostering the growth and stability of Enugu State, ensuring leadership remains focused on meaningful progress. He noted that attempts to discredit Mbah’s efforts through inflammatory remarks are not only unfair but also detrimental to the PDP’s cohesion, particularly in the South-East region.

The youth leader urged Wike to exercise restraint and adopt a more diplomatic approach when addressing party matters. He stressed that as a former governor and serving minister, Wike has an obligation to promote harmony within the PDP rather than fuel unnecessary conflicts that could derail the party’s objectives.

Reaffirming their support for Governor Mbah, the Enugu youth body called on PDP stakeholders to focus on strengthening the party’s structure instead of engaging in divisive politics. They maintained that unity remains the party’s greatest asset and should be safeguarded at all costs.

Full Statement from NYCN Enugu State Chapter: “The National Youth Council of Nigeria (NYCN), Enugu State Chapter, stands firmly with Governor Peter Ndubisi Mbah in light of recent developments within the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the South-East. At a time when collective effort is needed to strengthen the party, internal attacks and divisive remarks can only weaken the foundation we have worked hard to build.

“Governor Mbah has played a vital role in advancing Enugu State, ensuring that governance remains focused on real development. His leadership embodies fairness, stability, and strategic growth—qualities essential for both the state and the PDP. Any attempt to undermine his efforts through inflammatory rhetoric is not only unjust but also counterproductive.”

“We are deeply concerned about Nyesom Wike’s recent statements, which suggest an intention to disrupt PDP-led state governments that do not align with his views. Such an approach does not foster unity or strengthen the party. True leadership is demonstrated through dialogue, constructive engagement, and respect for differing perspectives.”

“The PDP has long been a party that encourages robust internal discourse, but this must be conducted with responsibility and respect. Party leaders must lead by example, choosing collaboration over threats and discord. The focus should be on strengthening the party’s position in the South-East and nationwide, rather than engaging in actions that create unnecessary division.”

“We urge Nyesom Wike to reconsider his stance and refrain from making further comments or taking actions that could deepen divisions within the PDP. As a former governor and serving minister, he has a duty to uphold unity rather than stir conflicts that could derail the party’s objectives.”

“Now, more than ever, PDP members must remain focused on the bigger picture—building a stronger and more effective political structure. We reaffirm our support for Governor Peter Ndubisi Mbah and encourage all stakeholders to work towards a more united and stable party.”

HEAT WAVE RAGES

HEAT WAVE RAGES The intensity of the heat wave across the country is having devastating impact on people. Worst hit, according to observations, are pregnant women and children, whose ability to withstand the harsh conditions are low. The current heat wave has exposed children in some parts of the country to heat-related illnesses. In the northern part of the country, the pressure is on pregnant women, who have to grapple with dehydration, intense heat and still air. Worse still is the fact that it is happening during the Ramadan when people are fasting and as such abstain from water for many hours of the day. A pregnant woman in Yola, Adamawa State, Hajiya Hajara Audu, shared a heart-wrenching account of how she lost her one month-old pregnancy due to the extreme heat. “I went to work and felt the heat penetrating deep into my bones. Before I could rush to the hospital, I started bleeding; and that’s how I lost my pregnancy,” she narrated. Our correspondents report that residents across many states of the country are groaning under the scorching heat as a result of change in atmospheric conditions. They lament that it is affecting their health, livelihoods and daily activities. Experts have also warned that the heat stress has health implications, and there is a need for members of the public, including Muslim faithful currently observing their Ramadan fast to adopt measures to stay healthy and hydrated. The Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NiMet) had in an advisory on Tuesday, March 11, issued an alert on heat stress in the country. The agency said rising temperatures and high humidity levels over the next couple of days may cause thermal discomfort across several regions. It said the most affected areas were Kebbi, Niger, Kwara, Oyo, Kogi, Nasarawa, Anambra, Abia, Ebonyi, Cross River and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT). Other vulnerable regions are; Taraba, Adamawa, Plateau, Kaduna, Zamfara, and Sokoto states, as well as coastal areas. The agency also warned of potential health risks, fatigue and irritability, reduced focus and lower productivity. NiMET had in an earlier alert on March 4, warned that temperatures were reaching 40°C+ in several locations. It forecasted maximum temperatures of 42°C in Kebbi, Jalingo, Yola; 41°C in Lafia; 40°C in Minna, Makurdi and 36°C–42°C in the North and 34°C–39°C in the South. The organisation added that there would be increased discomfort due to high humidity. Situation across states Findings revealed that residents of the FCT and over 19 states are lamenting the impact of the heat with dire situations in some northern states in the last few days. Adamawa residents grapple with sweltering heat, health implications Adamawa State is experiencing extremely high temperatures, with the mercury soaring to 43°C on Wednesday, March 12 and slightly dipping to 41°C the following day. The scorching heat, exacerbated by hot winds, is making it challenging for residents to move around, especially during the fasting period. According to Demba Kwenke, the Adamawa State Head of Epidemiology, the hot weather has led to a surge in reported cases of heat-related illnesses. “We have over 100 cases of heat-related illnesses reported, mainly from Yola/North, Yola South and other local government areas,” he said. Demba said the state was also witnessing a rise in cases of meningitis, with samples taken for further confirmation. Kano residents devise means of mitigating effects Kano residents braced up for extremely hot weather conditions as the temperature moved above 36°C on Thursday afternoon. Hauwa’u Sani said she was forced to take her rechargeable fan to the office to keep cool as the prevailing temperature is not friendly. “The heat is something else these days, so I take my rechargeable fan to the office where electricity supply is not constant and without which I…
