They always settle any rift at home amicably. Another typical example is Late Dr Olusola Saraki who belonged to "Okere" while the Son, Dr Bukola Saraki, who belonged to PDP, but all settled down in the same roof, why is Lanwa different where they path away to "G13 " and "Iliasu groups" without settling down in the same roof. According to Islamic injunction, we must always think about the "Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow". In this wise, no one can ever forget Alhaji Yusuf Orilowo's achievements in the entire Lanwa Community and

MORNING DIGEST ON SECURITY ALERT IN ILORIN METROPOLIS. By Dan-Musa Ayuba Saad It is not longer a news that migration of different people from different part of the country are taking refuge in the state capital of Ilorin in search of peaceful atmosphere due to unrest in the North, West, South and West.
