It is no longer news that my piece “Take a Trip to the Three Warri LGAs” published in the Vanguard of Tuesday February 7, 2010 has attracted a balderdash full-page rejoinder from Emmanuel Uduaghan and his Consultant...
Don’t envy every rich man or anticipate being like all. Not all wealthy men should be role models, because many of them acquired their wealth by infringing on the rights of other people. It is not wealth when you debased the integrity of the other person to skyrocket...
