How can somebody who called himself a party chairman in a state like Abia not be able to coordinate the party very well? His lack of political dexterity has culminated in thugs storming PPA’s meetings and kidnapping some party faithfuls...
Professor Chinua Achebe, the most influential African writer, a citizen of the world and a respected voice in the world, rejected an award from Nigeria. The issue is not so much that he turns down the national award but on how the Nigerian government handled the whole issue...
We have deemed it convenient to remind the state government to review from time to time some of its policies to see if they meet with the present realities...

We all know how far Nigerian men would have all gotten in life if not for the devilish ways that our women have tempted us and diverted our attention away from pursuing more important matters aided by their bottom power...
I do not envy Goodluck Ebele Jonathan. Not many rational and reasonable people would. It is hard to imagine the kind of nervous tension he must have, and is going though. The weight and expectation of the nation. The pull and push of the international community...
It is a height of crassitude for organizers of the National award in Nigeria to vacuously consider bestowing a National Honor on this horrific man known as Ahmadu Alli whilst men and women who actively and sedulously worked towards the emancipation and liberation of our Country are superciliously discounted...
British colonialism built roads, established networks of communications, and established bureaucratic jobs that encouraged – or forced – people to wander outside their immediate natal addresses.
