EL-RUFA'I RAISED IGR FROM N11BN IN 2014 TO N58.09BN IN 2022                                         By:                          Nurudeen Dauda                          15th May, 2023 nurudeendauda24@yahoo.com nurudeendauda24@gmail.com nurudeendauda.blogspot.com  To start with, it is sad to note that about 98% of our state governments including the so-called oil producing states rely on monthly revenue from Federal Account Allocation Committee (FAAC) for their basic survivals. It worries me to note that out of all the 36 states of the federation only Lagos can shoulder its monthly "personnel" and "overhead"costs without recourse to FAAC. Many states have more than 75% reliance on their entire annual budget on FAAC. It is an economic "suicide" for us to con...

97 COMPANIES/INVESTORS BROUGHT TO KADUNA STATE BY EL-RUFA'I

97 COMPANIES/INVESTORS BROUGHT TO KADUNA STATE BY EL-RUFA'I                                 By:                     Nurudeen Dauda                     May 17th, 2023 nurudeendauda24@yahoo.com nurudeendauda24@gmail.com To begin with, for us to "solve" or "manage" the problem of insecurity in our dear country we must create "jobs" to our teeming unemployed youth. In my thought, the "best" way to create "jobs" and generate more "revenue" are through both "local" and "foreign" "investments" in the various sectors of our economy. The role of governments in modern economies from America, EU, UK, Russia, India, and to China are "attracting" and "empowering" "investors" with favourable government policies in order to create "jobs" to their citizens.The responsibilities of modern governments from America, EU, UK, ...

SHEIKH GUMI'S WHERE I STAND NOW IN ARABIC TEXT                                By:                Nurudeen Dauda                6th September, 2025 nurudeendauda24@yahoo.com nurudeendauda24@gmail.com nurudeendauda.blogspot.com Permit me to "comment" Sheikh (Dr) Ibrahim Jalo Jalingo for translating this very important book written in 1992 by Late Sheikh Abubakar Mahmud Gumi called "Where I Stand" (English version) and "Manufata" (Hausa version) which is already in circulation in both English and Hausaa Languages to now an Arabic version. Sheikh Jalingo has  also converted AL’AKIDATUS SAHIHA, AHALARI, IZZIYYA, RISALA and ISHMAWI from written texts to Poetry. These works of translation and Poetry by Sheikh Jalingo will surely expand readership and knowledge of these books. May the Almighty Allah bless Sheikh Jalingo and professo...

MAXIMIZING THE BENEFITS OF THE FIRST TEN DAYS OF ZUL- HIJJAH                             By:                 Nurudeen Dauda                 6th June, 2024 nurudeendauda24@gmail.com nurudeendauda24@yahoo.com nurudeendauda.blogspot.com The month of Zul-Hijjah is the last month of the Islamic calendar. It is the month which one of the five pillars of Islam called "Hajj" is performed. In Islam there is a consensus among "scholars" that as for "days" the first ten "days" of Zul-Hijjah are the best "days". As for "nights" the last ten "nights" of Ramadan are the best "nights". As for "days" in a "week" "Friday" is the best "day" in a "week".  The first ten "days" of the month of Zul -Hijjah are among the most significant in Islam. Every muslim should take full advantage of this wonderful opportunity by offering as much more Ibaadah to Allah...

The Day of Arafah is the most significant day. As the Prophet (PBUH) said: “Arafah is the Hajj’ (Ahmed) ...
