Nigeria is subliminally going through perilous times. Unfortunately, the factors responsible forthese conditions are dangerously explained away politically. The people are hit by mute...
Whenever I see any bank and the ill-assorted characters called bankers in their foppish coats I suffer an extravagance of laughter.
The Poet does not...
In an era marked by global economic volatility, few nations have demonstrated strength and foresight of Nigeria’s Central Bank and its Monetary Policy Committee...
The palpable erosion of economic sovereignty impinges inexorably on national security. Without a sound economic foundation, any state's security would be in jeopardy. Economic sovereignty is the power a state exercises over its means of production, distribution and exchange...
Much of Chinese growth came through trading and massive exportation. Its economy is export driven. Nigerians need to follow China in this regard. Nigerians have the potential to trade. Let's try and take our trading beyond the shores of Nigeria...
Perhaps banks should not be allowed to grow so large that they cannot be allowed to fail. My recollection is that until about 2 years ago we had such regulations. Banks were prohibited from getting too large and engaging in risky investments with depositors' money...
The effort to rebrand Nigeria may appear fruitless if public trust remains in the dark corner. My home-country, Nigeria embarked on a course of liberal economic reform that was impressive by developing-country standards and remarkable by its own. Four years later, much remain to be done...
So long as we are not ready to take responsibility by ourselves for our own condition, no one will. Did the Dangotes and the Otedolas tie the legs of every Nigerian and slaughter anyone who attempted to get rich?
The problem with the banking industry is not new. It’s been ongoing for the last decade or so. While the politicians and the officials of government business covertly pillage the national treasury with impunity, the bankers and allied workers in the financial institutions defraud the banking institutions
Dear Sir, thank you for your SMS and subsequent email assuring me of your bank’s financial stability after the CBN’s Hammer of Thor struck the bank’s executive ménage relieving its directors of their most lucrative positions and the CBN’s consequent ‘dole out’ aimed to address your insolvency...
Recruitment exercises conducted by many public and private organisations in Nigeria showcase the level of exploitation faced by jobless and job-seeking Nigerians. Those who venture into self-employment are frustrated by the epileptic electricity supply, zero financing, bad road networks, poor transportation system and other unsettling factors...
In the long run, rap grows into a cult where drugs are sold and scores are settled. It's not just words anymore, people start to live out those words...
A man's best friend is actually a woman even when he denies and refuses to admit. As loyal friends, they would not dump you even after they marry and would make you become their husband's friend so they can keep you forever as a friend...
While the lawyers assemble their evidence, life must move on, the business of government must continue. So transit we must unto a new term of government...
Given what governors have done in their respective states across the country, it has become apparent that what matters is not really how wealthy a state or by extension a nation is but how well the little resources available are managed...
Before I walked the corridors of power briefly in 2010, I wrote articles as sharp as barbed wire nearly all a denunciation of government. I was saying all of these things, like an Abati and like an Adeniyi, from a great distance unmindful that in wagging one finger at government the rest were pointing at me...
This piece is not unmindful of the seeming improvement Goodluck Jonathan has brought to the power sector. We think it is too insignificant though. And that is apart from the possible fact that this marginal upping of result here could be all about the 2011 elections, after which we grind to a halt again...
