ForTheRecords@ITREALMS ... making leadership SENSE with digital news!
In 1972, in the quiet town of Ajalli, near Awka in present-day Anambra State, a father made a choice that would forever be remembered—not for its defiance, but for its love.
Stanley Enekwe, a young man and former Biafran soldier, had been convicted of armed robbery and sentenced to death by firing squad. His people swore he was innocent, but their voices were drowned out by the harsh realities of the time. There would be no mercy.

Hoda Muthana: Experts insist she must return to face consequences – ITREALMS
ITREALMS:
The now trapped Hoda Muthana, needs to return to United States of America (USA) to face the consequences of her action by joining Islamic State fighters, says expert and senior fellow, Foreign Policy at the Centre for Middle East Policy, Brookings Institution, Mr. Daniel L. Byman, reports ITREALMS.
Reacting to the recent ban placed on the 25-year old Hoda by the Trump administration’s decision not to allow her back into the United States after she went to Syria to join the Islamic State, Byman described the decision as “short-sighted.”
According to him, it is an abrogation of U.S. leadership and discouragement to other countries from taking the hard steps needed to handle the threat from thousands of returning Islamic State fighters.
ITREALMS recalls that Muthana, then a 20-year-old student, apparently left Alabama in 2014 to join the Islamic State at the height of the Caliphate. She equally reportedly served as a recruiter and urged attacks on the West. Along with 12 other Americans, Muthana is held by U.S. Kurdish allies in Syria, who are mostly women and children and claimed she regretted her decision to join the group and is ready to face the consequences, which will not exclude jail term over her act.
Byman noted that although Secretary of State Mike Pompeo claimed she has no grounds for citizenship, which he disagreed, arguing that Hoda was born in the United States and holds a U.S. passport.
“The administration’s approach is at odds with traditional U.S. interpretations of who is a citizen,” he declared.
In addition, Byman said that the United States has well-resourced police and federal law enforcement services and strong counterterrorism laws, stressing that “If Muthana returns for trial, she will not pose a threat. If Muthana voluntarily joined the Islamic State, as seems likely, she should be allowed home, given a trial, and serve the appropriate penalty under law for providing support to a terrorist organization and other crimes. It is tempting to fall into the trap of assuming that, as a young woman, she was ‘lured’ to the Islamic State by male masterminds or was not otherwise responsible for her actions.”
He pointed out that hitherto, women have played an important role in the Islamic State as recruiters, enforcers, and otherwise bolstering the caliphate, hence Muthana, like other volunteers, should be held fully responsible for her own actions.

Buy, sell on traffic in Lagos, face six months jail
The Lagos State government has said that both buyers and
sellers on traffic may be heading to jail, reports ITRealms.
The state governor, Mr. Akin Ambode, while speaking on
Television Continental (TV-C) monitored in Lagos, Friday, said that the laws on
Street Trading in Lagos State will be strictly enforced from July 1, 2016.
“_Both Seller and Buyer are equally guilty and the penalty
is N90,000 or 6 months imprisonment or both. Please note and abstain from
buying from Street Hawkers,” he said.
The strict implementation of this law was not unconnected to
the fracas that took place on Wednesday at Maryland, Lagos following the
killing of hawker in effort to cross the Ikorodu-Ikeja-Ojota Road, which
resulted in shattering of a Lagos State Government Bus (LAGBUS) which left some
Lagosians injured.
