Art, Science and Technology are as important as air on earth.  I remember when we were in secondary school and we all thought only the smart ones deserve to study science courses.

Alas, we were wrong. Good music has been able to cure several mental illnesses just like medicine. Technology has reached great heights, but what's the use of a great flat screen TV without a good movie to watch alongside.

Appreciate arts, appreciate science, appreciate technology, for they all require creativity and hardwork, and our lives depend on them all. The people good at art are smart too. Not just the science and tech guys.

Global Warming, Climate Change. When you hear these things, you think scientists and researchers are trying to play with some fancy words?

Herdsmen farmers' clashes have cost several lives in Nigeria this year alone. The casualty, even as big as it seems, is just a tip of the iceberg of other products of the impending climate crises.

Desert is taking over more fertile lands. Antarctica is getting warmer, and ice melting, which only increases the volume of the oceans. This rise in sea level swallows more lands. Resources will get scarce and when the little left isn't managed and shared properly - crises.

I'm not a prophet of doom, but I preach climate change and global warming. Preach as much as you can because we have no other planet, yet.

At least six persons including a police corporal were on Friday killed by gunmen in Gurbin Bore village, Zurmi Local Government Area of Zamfara State, the News Agency of Nigeria has reported.

The state police spokesperson, Mohammed Shehu, said the community was attacked at about 10 pm by assailants numbering about 100.

It was not immediately clear why the village was targeted.

Zamfara, located in Nigeria’s north west, has been hit by several deadly attacks in the last one year by people described by authorities as “bandits”, who also steal livestock.

The police spokesman said three people were severely wounded in Friday’s attack.

“Eleven vehicles including a police vehicle, three motorcycles and five kiosks were set ablaze by the hoodlums,” he said.

Mr Shehu said the “bandits” who were suspected to have come from Dumburum forest were engaged by a combined team of counterterrorism operatives, comprising police Mobile Force, and Federal Special Anti-Robbery Squad (FSARS) personnel stationed in the area.

He said the attackers were being trailed and would be arrested and brought to justice.

The vice chairman of Zurmi Local Government Council, Abubakar Dauran, told journalists that 13 shops and 15 vehicles were burnt.
